Eggers Orginal Ice Cream Parlor

Eggers Homemade Ice Cream Parlor opened in 1932 on Castleton Avenue and Broadway next to the Capital movie theater. The original Eggers was owned by Mr. Richie Egger. Mr. Egger ran the ice cream parlor in this location until 1950 when he scooped up all of his products and set up shoppe on Forest Avenue and Barrett Street. After several successful years in the small shoppe that only held 6 bar stools, Richie Egger shakes up the business. He sells the ice cream parlor and all of its secret recipes to Mr. Selle. After 12 years of selling cones, shakes, and sundaes, Mr. Selle decided to split further up Forest Avenue, to the present shopping center. After celebrating 30 years of ownership, Mr. Selle sprinkles off to retirement in 1980, and passes the tradition on to Mr. Nemkin. Mr. Oleg Nemkin ran a successful family ice cream parlor with his wife Karen and daughter Samantha for 25 years, where he expanded the business to a second storefront and established a successful candy corner...
