Creamery

“The Wayside is an icon on the Vermont restaurant scene,
serving up classic comfort food for an entire century.”

Wayside-Made Ice Cream—Fresh from Our Creamery

It seemed a little contradictory for the Wayside to be serving homemade apple pie with store-bought ice cream. Our delicious apple pie has been enjoyed for generations by many loyal customers.

How can we improve on such a popular dessert? We considered adding more fresh apples, another pinch of cinnamon, sprinkling more sugar on the flaky top crust. Then we realized that we better not mess with success (2 pounds of apples per pie is enough!). How about serving it a la mode with Wayside-Made ice cream! It made all the sense in the world.

Signature Vanilla & Many More Amazing Flavors

After months of research and development (and many tubs of delicious factory seconds) the Wayside settled on its Signature Vanilla recipe. From there other amazing flavors have followed:

  • Moxie
  • Blueberry
  • Root Beer
  • Mango
  • Coffee
  • Chocolate
  • Coca-Cola
  • Orange
  • Chocolate Stout
  • Pecan
  • Vermont Maple
  • Cranberry
  • Lemonade
  • Strawberry
  • And More to Come!

Desserts from Our Bakery Taste Even Better with Wayside-Made Ice Cream

Every day the Wayside has its Signature Vanilla and Chocolate and a featured flavor on the menu.  Our ice cream is  made FRESH every week. Customers are encouraged to eat their way through a home-cooked Wayside meal and top it off with a wonderful Wayside-Made ice cream dessert.

With Wayside-made ice cream even the milk shakes and fountain floats taste better. Even the peanut butter ice cream pie has been taken up a notch. The sundaes crowned with salted caramel, chocolate, strawberry, Vermont maple syrup and hot fudge toppings are the best.

If you’re feeling a bit nostalgic and want to reminisce about the Wayside’s longstanding history, try a Signature Vanilla champagne float! The bubbles, the cream…enough said.
