I was looking for an evening¹ ice cream option (it's August, so most ice cream places are open until at least 9pm, and if they weren't people would probably come knocking anyway) that wasn't too much of a drive (I've almost exhausted "new places that are less than half an hour by car", though not quite.)

Nanabette's is in Woburn, about two miles inbound from I-95 (it's also less than ¼ mile from Horn Pond so I will definitely add this to my "get ice cream after birdwatching" list.) Two windows, one picnic bench, limited street parking.²

First Visit

They were pretty busy at 8:30 and I ended up doing a little shopping at the CVS across the street, which let me get a clean shot of the counter without anyone waiting. (Looks like a lot of the locals just walk from the huge CVS parking lot instead of fighting with local street parking.) The menu looks relatively ephemeral, but what caught my eye was the Creamsicle Float (which was really a frappe but that's what I wanted anyway) that I'd failed to get at the last few places, so I didn't end up trying their other flavors. They did have a S'mores, a Peanut Butter Oreo, and a Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie Dough, all of which will be getting attention next time through. They also have Slush, Razzle (soft serve with mixins), and some fancy-sounding Sundaes.
