Serving me with open cuts on hands and touching the ice cream with fingers set me packing from this place. I will go somewhere else for an ice cream fix.

On my way back from MA, I decided to check out the Dr. Davis Ice Cream stand in Brookline, NH, which is located just north of the MA border, across the parking lot from Caryn’s Country Convenience store(Sunoco). The other Dr. Davis Ice Cream stand is located in Pepperell, MA. This seasonal ice cream stand offers around 28 flavors of homemade hard ice cream(they have more flavors which rotate seasonally), soft serve(choc, vanilla, twist), hot dogs, chips, and can soda. The ice cream is offered in cones, cups, waffle cones, sundaes, brownie sundaes, banana splits, frappes, floats, flurrys, and DOC’S SPECIAL! Custom ice cream cakes and hand packed ice cream pints & quarts are also offered. The 28 hard ice cream flavors offered here on my visit(August 2011) included vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, coffeee, black raspberry, chocolate chip, fresh peach, pistachio, frozen pudding, peppermint stick, Oreo, butter pecan, coffee Oreo, maple walnut, orange pineapple, rum raisin, raspberry crème, buttercrunch, bubble gum, chocolate chip cookie dough, French vanilla, French vanilla chip, orange sherbert, mocha chip, butterscothm moose trax, cake batter, & double chocolate Swiss chip. The prices tend to be on the higher side for what you get. In 2011, the standard cone/cup ice cream prices(not including the 9 percent NH tax) for(soft serve/homemade hard ice cream): Small($ 2.95/$ 3.25), Medium($ 3.95 hard only), Large($ 3.50/$ 4.95). A regular frappé is $ 5.25, a small sundae is $ 5.10, and a small banana split is $ 5.90. Each extra topping is 65 cents. I got the Doc’s Special($ 6.00 with tax) which was 2 scoops of ice cream(I got rum raisin), banana slices, hot fudge, strawberries, and marshmallow sauce(or whipped cream) & cherrry, all served in a paper cup with a long spoon sticking out. This special ice cream treat tasted pretty good, though the size of this treat was not huge for the price. The rum raisin ice cream consistency was just right, cold & creamy with raisins and not too milky. The various toppings(little of each) in the treat went along pretty well with the ice cream. I also had a whole banana in my lunch box, which I added to this treat. Overall, a good cold refreshing treat which I finished in about 5 minutes. There also also a couple picnic tables along the fence next to the stand. Major credit cards are accepted including MC, Visa, AMEX and Discover (3.4÷5.0 stars) FACEBOOK:
