This place is a throwback soft-serve stand. Awesome setting and 1980s pricing. (It’s been around for something like 50 years.) Ice cream isn’t going to win any awards, but I always enjoy going there on a warm summer evening.

There is a much closer walgreens at Armitage/Milwaukee. I put this one in the guidebook too because it's a really cool building. It was a bank that has been restored and converted to a walgreens. In the basement, they have the vault with pictures of how it used to be. Something interesting to check out if you like historic buildings and are in the area.
