Stillwells Riverwalk Ice Cream

New Hampshire


With 60 different flavors on the menu, it can be hard to make up your mind. We recommend the moose tracks: vanilla with peanut butter bits and chocolate fudge. On a pretty afternoon, you can enjoy your cone on a walk along the Swasey Pkwy beside the Squamscott River, just out back.
