B&G Milkyway will be opening a storefront this spring in the town of...Mitchell! Soon this town will be home to "The World's Only Corn Palace" and B&G Milkyway! This will be the tenth B&G Milkyway in the Sioux Empire.

The old-fashioned South Dakota drive-in opened in 1954 on West 12th Street in Sioux Falls originally known as "The Milky Way." In the mid-1960s, the owner sold the establishment to Bertha and Guy Higgins. Since then, B&G Milkyway has only grown!

Their menu has a variety of treats to choose from, like dipped cones, avalanches, malts, and more! B&G Milkyway also offers food if you want to have dinner before dessert. Some food listed on the menu include footlongs, chili cheese nachos, and pizza burgers. I'm getting excited just thinking about the delicious ice cream and of course...warmer weather!

But B&G Milkyway officials say dates will be announced "soon." Until then, young adults are encouraged to apply for summer jobs with B&G Milkyway at any of their locations. Click here to learn more.

B&G Milkyway treats can't come fast enough!
