Others to Consider: White Mountain Creamery, Cold Stone Creamery, Richardson's, Frozen Freddie’s, Emack & BoliosGram's is a seasonal establishment in downtown Newburyport, offering homemade ice creams, frozen yogurt, and desserts such as strawberry shortcake. Compared to other local ice cream parlors, the treats aren't cheap, but there are few summertime pleasures comparable to strolling the streets of Newburyport (or escaping the summer heat!) with an ice cream cone in hand.
Twenty flavors of ice cream are available, including local favorite 'Plum Island Turtle' (vanilla ice cream with caramel, chocolate chips and cashews). 10 flavors of frozen yogurt include 'Joppa Sludge' (coffee yogurt with Heath bar, nuts and Oreos). Also available are soft serve ice cream, sherbet, slushes, sorbet, frappes (over 10 flavors), egg creams, floats, and sundaes. Gram's is for dessert purists: no sandwiches or even chips are sold. For a larger appetite, homemade strawberry shortcake, apple crumble, and brownie sundaes are suggested.
To share Gram's ice cream with those at home, hand-packed quarts, pints and gallons can be purchased; as can 'doggie sundaes': vanilla ice cream with dog biscuits!
The serving sizes are on the small side, but true: 'one scoop' is actually one scoop, and it will run you $2.95 after tax. Two scoops cost $3.80; three cost $4.60. Sundaes and 'special desserts' go up from $5.00.
