From the Apple Pie a la mode sundae to the Double Decker, Mootown's creations will have you asking for mooore. Choose from 18 flavors of ice cream, and build your own sundae, then douse your creation with toppings like fudge brownies or snickers. Mootown also has banana splits sprinkled with four to 10 toppings, including bananas, of course. Vegans will love the Eastern Market – a non-dairy sorbet with fresh fruit puree. The Walking Sundae is a waffle cone with ice cream, fudge, whipped cream and a cherry. This combo sees to it that you can stroll the avenue and not miss a beat eating that sundae, taking multitasking to a whole other level. Take a trip to the ocean without leaving the city; the Seaside Sundae features seaside caramel ice cream topped with a pralines, vinegar salted pecans and sea salt.

Heavy on the nostalgia, this ice cream stand has all of the makings of a seriously good old fashioned sundae, complete with all the fixins. Where else can you order a triple decker that features a gigantic ice cream cone as part of the building? Kitchy-cool architectural elements aside, this is the place to be on hot summer days, you know, the ones that blend into warm summer nights. While you're here, definitely grab a banana split with all of the trappings, then slide on over to one of the picnic tables located only steps away.
