  1. Wasn’t 301 W. Edwards also a Dairy Rose Ice Cream Shop in the late 70’s or early 80’s??

    I remember Dairy Rose. Mid-to-late 1970’s would be my guess of when it was there.

    Bob nailed it. The Dairy Rose Ice Cream Parlor opened at 301 W. Edwards in 1975 and closed in 1979.

This was my sister and I’s very first job and I now have purchased the buiding with my brother. It has been renovated and serving Lunch and dinner 7 days a week including serving in the gorgeous landscaped beer garden. It is now called Boone’s Uptown Grill. Come see us and the new changes.

  3. I remember the Dairy Rose. My dad would take my brother and I there. It’s closing in 79 sounds about right

  4. I don’t live in Spfld anymore, but I heard that Boone’s Saloon closed. Is that true?

  6. My parents had their first place in the apartments behind there. The buildings were torn down and he visitors center sits there now. As for the Dairy Rose, my Dad proposed to my mom over an ice cream from there.
