Pop's Clam Shell has great ice cream

This is my first post...I finally have something I thought I would share.

I have a condo at Weir's Beach and have been boating on the lake for 4 summers now. Just got a new Sea Ray 220 Sundeck (trading in my 20' 20 year old Sea Ray cuddy). I'm far more secure now with my means of travel on the lake and have ventured forth to see new sights. Yes, Paugus Bay, the Meredith Channel and circling Governor's Island were my "big" trips until now

I had the best ice cream so far yesterday at Pop's Clam Shell in Alton. What a surprise. My usual favorite has been Liliokalani's on Paugus Bay...they have an awesome view. I've also tried Sawyer's and the German sounding place at the Weirs and a few in Meredith. However, Pop's tasted richer and was a great buy for the money. I ordered the Moose Tracks child's portion in a cup with a sugar cone on top. Price $2.00. It was a LARGE serving considering it was the cheapest priced size. It was FULL of chunks of chocolate candy. What a meal.

I noticed the hordes of people at the ice cream shop down the street...but saw no one getting ice cream at Pop's. Wondered if they even thought of Pop's for ice cream...their wait time would have been shorter!..While their selections are limited...they still cover the basics. They also have a public restroom around back :-)

If you haven't tried it and find yourself in the mood for ice cream some hot day. try Pops. Unless it was an abberation...they are a good place to get a cone.

This is my first post on the Winnipesaukee forum. I have learned a lot from reading the threads and appreciate all of the info. It's a great place to absorb lots of "local knowlege" of the lake.
