Its last day of service will be on Saturday, January 27. “Although this journey is sadly ending, it has been an incredible journey that I’m so thankful to have experienced,” noted the Facebook announcement.

Just down the street is gelato shop Dolce Neve and Fresa’s Chicken al Carbon, which sells cups and pints of ice cream.
