An ice-cream shop that brings town and gown together

White Mountain Creamery

raditional antagonists, college students and the full-time residents who live around at least two local campuses do have one thing they agree on: White Mountain Creamery. The little ice-cream shop—with one location tucked among a handful of storefronts near Boston College and another at the edge of Wellesley Square, near Wellesley College—has that nostalgia that pretty much appeals to everybody. The signs reading “homemade” are no exaggeration. Owner Peter Coufos designs and churns his own flavors using fresh New England cream and other regional ingredients that change with the seasons. The hidden treasure here is the apple pie ice cream with cinnamon and chunks of fresh apple mixed right in. With its hand-drawn menus, stacks of board games, and quirky décor, White Mountain Creamery is the cheery kind of place that ice-cream lovers crave. Enos

Shhhh! Try the ice-cream cupcakes, cupcake-sized versions of White Mountain’s larger ice-cream cakes.
Shhhh! You can see the old-
fashioned ice-cream churners.
Shhhh! A chalkboard drawing of
Garfield the Cat has inexplicably beside the counter
of the Newton shop for at least a decade.

Shhh who knew

Chestnut Hill is not a town. It's a village overlapping parts of Newton, Boston, and Brookline.
