We live in Florida, so it’s only natural that we have a plethora of frozen treat options. Soon, the ice cream monolith known as Ben & Jerry’s will host its grand opening in Midtown Tampa. On March 8, residents in Midtown will get to experience all the funky goodness that this ubiquitous scoop shop has to offer.

The ice cream purveyor was originally founded in Burlington, VT back in 1978. Over the course of nearly 4 decades the company has delights kids and adults with its inventive ice cream flavors. In addition to classics such as Cherry Garcia and Chubby Hubby, Ben & Jerry’s has branched out to serve certified gluten-free, and vegan pints.
