by Jordyn Taylor
Norman and Jill Matthews (Aka Mr. and Mrs. Dinky) have been thinking of expanding their business since the day it opened. Located in downtown Bangor, Dinky’s Ice Cream Parlor is known for its 24 Flavors of Soft Ice Cream, the Quarry Bucket Challenge, and the pictures of customers that line every wall. It has been called a “Pillar of the Community” on Facebook and the Dinky’s are excited to open their second location in the near future. Dinky’s second location will open in Bethlehem on East Third Street in October/November of this year. Mrs. Matthews said the up-and-coming area was the perfect place, though they discovered it on accident. After coming home from an ice cream show, the pair decided to take a different route home. They stumbled upon what will soon be the new Dinky’s, and the next day a call was made to get the ball rolling. The two are anxious for the opening, and say if it could be open now, it would be. “We’re ready to Rock,” said Mrs. Matthews. Ever since Norman Matthews was young, he wanted to open an ice cream shop. Now, he’s living his dream - serving ice cream, working in the kitchen, and creating his commercials for the parlor. (See below). Along with his wife, the two do as much for the community as possible and attend many events. “She’s my biggest supporter and motivator,” said Mr. Matthews. “She’s the biggest fan of Dinky’s.” They attend events such as the Car Show (their favorite) and will be at the games in the area, among other events, and hold events at their shop. The Quarry Bucket Challenge’s name was inspired by the Slate Belt, and is definitely a challenge to conquer. With 12 scoops of ice cream, 3 liquid toppings, 2 bananas, 1 candy topping, a cherry, and only 30 mins to finish, only 2 people have been victorious and winners of a T-shirt and a spot on the winner’s wall. Don’t worry though, if your picture isn’t on the wall for the Quarry Bucket, you may be on one of the others. The new Dinky’s location will feature a bigger area with more menu items as well as new ice cream flavors. From more burgers, to four vegan flavors of ice cream, the menu will only get better from here. The Matthews have nothing but nothing but praise for community and employees and can’t wait to expand even further. “If the next one does as good as it’s supposed to, we will open more stores.” They say. “I want it franchised. That’s my ultimate goal.” Until then, keep on the lookout for more raffles including a Back to School Bucket in September, the announcement of the grand opening in Bethlehem, more fun signs outside the shop, and head over to their social media for more commercials, photos, and updates! https://www.instagram.com/dinkys_icecreamcrew/ https://www.facebook.com/DinkysIceCreamParlor/videos/498479580887057/ https://www.facebook.com/DinkysIceCreamParlor/videos/ http://dinkysicecream.com/menu-2/
