Hanna's Frosty Treats has been serving smiles on the corner of Taunton and Colvin for as long as I can remember. In my conversation with owner Maureen Karvouniaris, I learned that it's been there, scooping up summertime sweets for its devoted North Buffalo neighborhood, for over 35 years.

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.

    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.
