Chillin' Out with Hanna's Frosty Treats


Perry's Ice Cream is available, along with soft serve, ices, floats, shakes and “Screamers”--the name for the popular combination of soft serve and bits of candy bar or cookie. The Grasshopper Sundae is a favorite, made of vanilla ice cream and topped with chocolate chip mint cookie crumbles, sweet crème de menthe sauce, whipped cream and a green cherry. Other signature treats include the Turtle Sundae made with vanilla ice cream, chocolate and caramel sauce, nuts, whipped cream and a cherry, and the S'more Sundae which, comprised of ice cream, graham cracker crumbs, chocolate sauce and marshmallow topping, matches the flavor of the fireside treat we all know and love.

Prices are reasonable and portions are more than generous. Like many of WNY's seasonal businesses, Hanna's opens for business in early April and closes when the weather turns cold in October. Family owned and operated, it is certainly one of the longest standing ice cream spots in Buffalo. There is plenty of parking and it's especially nice for those with children as there are picnic tables at which to sit and enjoy your purchase. On warm days (and even some pretty chilly ones) there is quite a crowd gathered outside enjoying the weather and Hanna's Frosty Treats. Check it out.

Fresh and Fabulous from the Farm – A Sunday Supper
One of my favorite things to do while assisting at the Slow Food Buffalo, Chef Demo table at the Bidwell Market is to people-watch.
I get a kick out of observing the customers. They scurry from table to table curiously checking out what each vendor has brought in that week to tantalize their taste buds. Little kids sneak a blueberry while some people secretly squeeze a tomato. Many smell the flowers, sample some sausage or eng …
After a brief summer hiatus, SAMPLE’s Supper Club resumes in a few weeks. The monthly occasion returns with an eye on the season and an appreciation for quality beer.
For the uninitiated, SAMPLE’s Supper Club features a “food forward” six course feast that tempts the taste buds and the imagination. If Chef Adam Goetz’s thoughtful and refined contemporary menu isn’t enough to tempt you, perhaps the pairing of exquisite beers with each course will seal the deal. Las …
It was a beautiful day for Sunday brunch, so the only choice was a restaurant that still had an open patio, where the food was going to be great.
Betty's it was. Not only was I able to have my Jack Russell terrier tableside next to the short, flower box laden fence, but I got to sit in the sun. The angle was steep for noon, a telling sign of shorter days, and if you don't believe me, look at the shadow the home fries cast.
Betty's is one of those places where you'll run into pe …
There have been many reincarnations at 752 Elmwood Avenue over the past couple of years. Wasabi is the newest restaurant nestled next door to Fowlers Chocolates and right across the street from Spot Coffee. When you enter you are greeted with exposed brick, sleek furniture and a gleaming sushi bar where colorful sashimi sits like little gems in a glass case. It is a small restaurant that can seat 12 at the tables and about 10 at the bar. Sitting at the sushi bar is a treat and ent …

LOVE HANNAH's! And, it's quite a trip there from Downtown. I grew up in this 'hood and there has always been an ice cream spot there. Going to Hannah's every summer brings back rich memories of the good days gone by.

I have lived around the corner from Hannah's my whole life. I get sad when the boards go up for the Winter and happy when the boards come down! Did the article even mention LEMON ICE...?

Trivia information, the Taylor Air Cooled Soft Serve Machine In this place, if it's still in use, came from Boulder Colorado. The sale of that machine launched "The So Have A Sandwich " Deli on Elmwood and North.
