I Scream, You Scream

That headline looks a little like this is going to be about horror movies. Read it out loud. Get it?

Sometimes in the afternoon, if we’re out and about and have a little extra time before we’re supposed to be somewhere and don’t want to stop at home and get our dog all excited, Steven and I like to go to the Knight Spot in Frankfort for ice cream. Last Wednesday, waiting for Mohawk Farmer’s Market to open, we did just that.

The Knight Spot is an informal, neighborhood-y place to eat. The service is friendly and the food is good. In addition to soft serve ice cream, which I almost never want, the Knight Spot offers Gifford’s Ice Cream. Flavors include Chocolate Rain Forest Crunch, Moose Tracks, Cake Batter, and Wicked Good Chocolate. We stood at the freezer to make our selections, then sat at a booth under a plaque that read “Coffee and Friends Are the Best Blend.” I couldn’t agree more. Coffee and ice cream go good together too, and we ordered coffee as well.

Steven had a brownie sundae with Moose Tracks while I more conservatively ordered a small dish of raspberry sherbet. I’m not always so well behaved. The brownie sundae includes a warmed brownie, hot fudge, whipped cream, nuts and a cherry. I have been known to indulge, and I briefly regretted my virtue when the waitress brought our dishes of differing sizes. I was happy again after the first bite, though, a burst of raspberry flavor. I usually go for the chocolate ice cream, so this was different and yummy.

The Knight Spot is also a good place to go for breakfast (love the breakfast sandwich), lunch or dinner (love the patty melt). They are located at 265 E. Main St., Frankfort, NY, which is the corner of Main and Palmer Streets. You can find them on Facebook, or call 315-894-4054.

  1. I’ve been going there for years – as a kid, always got the tuna melt. I recently brought Dave for his first visit there and he LOVED it! 🙂 I think we do enjoy the fact that it’s a bit more casual (and he always loves a place that brings you back in time).
