We’ve had sandwiches and ice cream here and everything is always been good and wholesome. Today we ordered the takeout of homemade lasagna and homemade shepherds pie. Wow! Both were delicious and full of good flavors! The portions were generous.

What can I say about the fountain? Truthfully the answer is not enough. I've traveled all over for work in the last year and a half, and this place is easily in my top three favorites in the entire country. Why would I put a deli and ice cream shop into the top three with an Austin Texas steakhouse with an unrivaled lake view, and a Gulfport Mississippi seafood powerhouse? Because everything they do at the fountain, they do to perfection. By having options like hot chocolate floats, soda floats, ice cream sandwiches with any of three cookies, shakes, sundaes and all available with any of the flavors

I stopped by for the first time tonight. We bought the sundae kit to bring home. It was a pretty good deal. Lots and lots of fudge and caramel and serious helping of sprinkles and peanuts. The space is nice and fits the theme of an ice cream shop well. The sandwiches and general deli stuff looked really good and I will definitely be back to give it a try!

Wonderful little ice cream parlor in downtown Bath. They also serve some limited food but it's really an ice cream place. Bring in the children, they will make good memories.

A club sandwich is typically two layers between three slices of bread. This, while tasty, what rather disappointing for $11.

Sandwiches and root beer float were delicious. The staff was friendly. The meals are boxed for to-go and the shop is close to the waterfront park. The shop does have some seating inside, which works well for rainy days. Overall, good experience and will consider visiting again.
