Situated beside an amazing state park, Pulaski, VA is surrounded by a wealth of natural beauty. After enjoying outdoor activities in the sun, nothing refreshes like a really delicious ice cream. Here are three of the best parlors close to town where you can enjoy a frozen treat.

Pycone Creamery

On the near side of neighboring Fairlawn, you’ll come across this hidden gem of a parlor. They have a great range of old-fashioned, freshly homemade frozen custards. Pycone Creamery is family-owned, with friendly, cheerful servers who can guide you through its menu. Some of the popular choices are the butterscotch chocolate, peanut butter honey, and egg custard flavors.

Their seating and decor are colorful and comfy. You can park beside the cafe in your stylish new Chevy Corvette and settle in the cafe for your snack. Or you can get your order to go and enjoy the sweet smell of frozen goodies as you take it to share with your family. With the Corvette’s famously punchy acceleration and superior handling, you’ll be home in no time. Visit Pycone Creamery today at 7195 Lee Hwy in Fairlawn, just to the northeast of Pulaski.

Dairy Bar

A short drive to the south of town brings you to Dairy Bar in Galax. This comfortable diner specializes in delicious homemade sundaes, banana splits, hand-dipped cones, milkshakes, and other sweet treats. They also have an excellent range of sandwiches, salads, and more substantial fare if you’re feeling really hungry.

The quality of the food and speed of service makes it a very popular place, but they have so much seating that you’ll almost always find a free table. Some of the local favorites are the hot fudge sundae, caramel sundae, brownie sundae, and butter pecan cone. You’ll find Dairy Bar at 609 S Main St in Galax to the south of town.

Sugar Magnolia

In nearby Blacksburg, you’ll find this charming, characterful creamery and gift shop. Here, the friendly servers go above and beyond to provide a pleasant and memorable experience. Their range of cold treat options includes rather original choices like the cinnamon apple and oatmeal crisp flavor and their sea salt flavor with chocolate chip and caramel chunks.

While munching on your cone, you can peruse their gift shop, which is full of creative games, greeting cards, puzzles, and other trinkets. You’re very likely to leave with more than just the frozen snack. Visit Sugar Magnolia at 102 N Main St #102, Blacksburg, which lies to the northeast of Pulaski.
