Do you still own the Grill? I live in VA Beach now, but will have to stop by the next time I'm back in Springfield. Karey, I remember you and your sister. Do you still own the Grill?

In 1975 it moved to this location on Edwards. I worked there on the carry out side when it opened, then moved to the restaurant side as an asst manager during the winter months. Great times working the old register in the front with all the penny candy, 35 cent large ice cream cones, and the best soft served ice cream and potato soup. I do have an old picture of the inside on the restaurant side and will have to dig it out and post it. Dairy Rose was originally on Carpenter by the hospital.

(Sorry, I'm Scottish and not used to American street naming conventions.) By 1942 he'd moved to 1030 South 14th.

Every chance my brother and I had we would go and visit her, she would always give a dollar or two and let us walk to the Dariy Rose. I remember the wrought Iron chairs and the ordering counter was almost taller than me. We would sit with our ice cream cones and look out the window as we visited with Grandma. She is 94 now and doing great, I know she would still take me there if it was the Dairy Rose. What a great place!!! My Grandmother lived near there in the 70′s.

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.
