Yardley Ice House owners Jackie and Todd McGonigal are opening the doors to the new Newtown Ice House Saturday afternoon.
The shop will open at noon at 156 North State Street near the intersection with Jefferson Street in Newtown Borough.
The Newtown Ice House replaces Mom Mom’s Gourmet Take N’ Bake, which was a Newtown Borough staple that closed in 2020.
The family-owned-and-operated ice shop is known for their numerous flavors and fresh fruit in ice.
In an article in March, Jackie McGonigal told Newtown Patch that the family lives in Newtown and wants to bring their brand of tasty ice to the borough.
“A gourmet water ice shop is lacking here. So we’re going to bring our premium ice to Newtown and share it with the community,” she said.
