Does anyone remember the Mello ice cream shop at the south side of Tulare Street at what is now the Freeway 41 southbound on ramp? The counter clerk would sometimes sell us four scoops for a dime! This was in the early '50's.

wow, that sure rings a bell. I am 59 now but I bet I went there. I wish there were more pictures of the places we remember. I feel like I am going down memory lane with this site. Fun!

I WAS A COOK AT ONE OF THE ICE CREAM STORE DRIVE-INS AT FRESNO & A STREETS (SNAX DRIVE IN). MELL-O ICE CREAM WAS OWNED AND OPERATED BY DON JENSEN AND THE MAIN STORE WAS ON BUTLER AVENUE. OUR BEST SELLER AT THE DRIVE IN WAS A SNAX BURGER WITH BEATLE-NUT ICE CREAM THAT WAS MADE SPECIFICALLY IN RESPONSE TO THE BRITISH MUSIC INVASION BY THE BEATLES IN 1964. GREAT FOOD, GREAT ICE CREAM, BETTER TIMES FOR SURE.

I remember Mello Ice cream. 1958 I was in 10th grade and lived 3 blocks away. Went down there 3 times a week. Had a very big crush on one of the girls that worked there.
