Louie's Ice Cream in East Somerville Is Up for Sale

A beloved ice cream shop that has been around for a very long time is on the market.

According to a source, Louie's Ice Cream in East Somerville is up for sale, with a Facebook post from the Davis Square group page confirming this, showing a sign out front at the Broadway shop mentioning "mixed use and business for sale." The last Facebook post from the ice cream shop included a "That's All, Folks!" logo back in early September, with the message saying that "Louie's is officially closed for the season. Thanks again for another great season!!" but there was no sign of this being a permanent closure at the time.

Louie's, which has been in business for nearly 40 years, offered such items as ice cream, sherbet, sundaes, banana boats, slush, and more.

The address for Louie's Ice Cream is 193 Broadway, Somerville, MA, 02145.
