Best Ice Cream Shops in Tillicoultry

Penny Licks began as a historical ice cream serving method – the ‘penny lick’ – a single scoop in a small glass, popular in the late 19th century but ultimately banned due to unsanitary conditions. The company’s modern iteration, founded in 2013, seeks to recapture that nostalgic feel with simple ingredients and a focus on allergen-free options. Reviews consistently praise the shop’s relaxed atmosphere, dog-friendliness, and the quality of its ice cream, with many noting the generous scoop sizes and delicious flavors. Some customers have expressed disappointment with the lack of certain classic flavors, like the lemon meringue pie, and a few have reported issues with the quality of toasties. Despite these minor criticisms, Penny Licks remains a popular local spot known for its unique history and commitment to quality ice cream.
