Doumar’s Cones & Barbecue

"Considering the founder of Doumar's is credited with inventing the ice cream cone, enjoying a cone here is a "Roadfood must.""
Cliff Strutz






"Doumar's has a nice selection of not-too-thick but nonetheless delicious milkshakes to choose from. On the left is cherry and on the right is root beer."
Cliff Strutz



"Doumar's has an unusual preparation for their hot dogs. The wiener is split in half, grilled and presented on a hamburger bun."
Cliff Strutz



"On the menu, the minced with slaw pork barbecue sandwich is called, "our best seller.""
Cliff Strutz



"The sliced pork BBQ, also unsauced and with slaw, is especially tender."
Cliff Strutz



"The small but tasty cheeseburgers come with cheese on both sides of the patty."
Cliff Strutz



"Counter seats and booths are available inside the very clean Doumar's interior. Note the car hops on the right preparing to make a delivery."
Cliff Strutz



"Although there is inside seating available, many customers prefer to eat in their car."
Cliff Strutz



"The world's first cone machine is on display just outside the front door and is apparently still in use."
Cliff Strutz



"Doumar's is closing in on a full century of good, cheap eats."
Michael Stern



"The road sign in front of the parking lot includes two giant cones."
Cliff Strutz



"Cone Creator ... long before Wendy's (in the background) was a gleam in Dave Thomas's eye."
