Mr. K’s Soft Ice Cream

It’s looking like a hot weekend ahead, so we are preemptively telling you where you need to go get some ice cream (and a burger or two) to cool off. Mr. K’s Soft Ice Cream is an #OGCLT establishment that has stood the test of time on its little corner of South Boulevard. Since 1967, Mr. K’s has been a staple in the diet of many Charlotteans who love the simple things in life. A burger. Some fries. And, of course, a chocolate-vanilla swirl ice cream cone. Does it get much better than that?

Fun Fact: When Theodore Karres started the restaurant in 1967, it was called Zesto. It was in 1971 that the name was changed to the iconic Mr. K’s Soft Ice Cream.
