17 May

The weather is heating up in Bakersfield and soon we will all feel once again 100 degrees feels like.  So what better way to beat the heat then to cool down with some ice cream.  Dewars, located on Calloway in Bakersfield, CA, offers a great family environment for those looking to survive the hot weather with the help of a cool treat.  Dewars is known around town as ice cream royalty but it also features taffy, shakes, freezes, sodas, and floats in its menu.

Dewars is equipped with a small arcade and giant talking moose head that always gets the kids laughing.  The staff is very friendly and customers can either dine in or order for the go.  There are also party rooms that customers can reserve for events that require private group seating.

One of the most famous of all the items on the menu is the Georges Special.  This is a treat named after the grandson of the founder.  The ingredients include vanilla ice cream, chocolate syrup, ground walnuts and frozen bananas.  These ingredients are perfect on a night after a long hot day.  Other more popular treats include the Black and White and Grandpa Jim’s Sundae.  This sundae is more equipped for two as it contains six scoops of ice cream (two vanilla, two strawberry and two vanilla), ground walnuts, almonds and bananas.
