The store on Highway 31 has been in the same location for sixty years, so when people say, ‘Let’s go to Dairy Queen’ that’s the location they think about. But as time goes on, we hope that the community will think about both places, depending on which side of town you are on.”Mike Way, Owner of Dairy Queen
CULLMAN – On June 3rd, Dairy Queen Grill & Chill opened their 2nd Cullman location, and people are enjoying the convenient and beautiful new building. The weather has been hot, and many people have already been to the new restaurant to cool off with their delicious, creamy treats.
“Business has steadily grown,” said Mike Way, Dairy Queen Owner.
“The store on Highway 31 has been in the same location for sixty years, so when people say, ‘Let’s go to Dairy Queen’ that’s the location they think about. But as time goes on, we hope that the community will think about both places, depending on which side of town you are on.”
Although both locations offer the same food, the new establishment has something a little different than the other – a patio.
The large terrace in front of the building is the perfect place to have birthday parties, feed a ball team, or just hang out with friends.
“We still have customers say they didn’t know you were here or that we are open yet, so we are planning a grand opening on June 18th to help get the word out,” Mike explained.
“One of the biggest complaints we always heard about the Hwy. 31 location was, ‘we love coming there, but it’s so hard to get in and out’. The new store has a huge drive-through lane that is so nice to have. Our 31 store probably holds twelve cars, and our new one can hold twenty-seven cars, so we are hoping this will please our customers,” he smiled.
The new store is open Sunday through Thursday from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. and Friday through Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.
The store is located at 1840 Lee Avenue SW, Cullman, AL 35055. For more information, call them at 256-775-8870.
