DB's Drive-in
Weedsport, NY
DB's Drive-in started out as a Tastee-Freez around the mid-1950s. The building retains the plastic diamond pattern around the roof and blue glazed brick.

Frosty Boy K
Knightstown, IN		 Straw Hat
Twin Lakes, WI
Frosty Boy K is another former Tastee-Freez with the blue brick and plastic diamonds. It was built as a Tastee-Freez in 1967. By the 1970s, it was known as Tastee Cream. I don't know when it became Frosty Boy K. Evidently, this stand is or was connected with the Pizza King and Frosty Boy chains. For more, see these websites: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

The Straw Hat occupies a former Tastee-Freez building.

Luverne, MN
This former Tastee-Freez now houses J.J.'s Tasty Drive In.

Boz Hot Dogs
Griffith, IN
This Boz Hot Dogs stand housed a Tastee-Freez originally. The Boz Hot Dogs chain was founded in 1969. There is another old location in Hazel Crest, IL.

Your Pizza Shop
Minerva, OH
Your Pizza Shop is a chain with 11 locations in Ohio and 3 in Florida. I doubt any of the other locations occupy a former Tastee-Freez.

Wellsboro, PA

Tastee-Freez
Hillsville, VA		 former Tastee-Freez
Graham, NC
This Hillsville Tastee-Freez has intact diamond signage. I don't know if the building ever had blue brick.

This Graham Tastee-Freez now houses Jim's Hot Dogs. Some locals still call the place Jim's Tastee-Freez.

RJ's Place
Fuquay-Varina, NC		 Tastee-Freez
Chicago, IL
RJ's Place is another former Tastee-Freez.

The Chicago Tastee-Freez features another old plastic sign. I believe this stand has been here since 1951.

Tasty Treat
East Lansing, MI
Tasty Treat opened here in 2011. Tasty Twist operated here from 1960-2011. The building and diamond-shaped signs show this was originally a Tastee-Freez. The angled roof and walk-up window seem to indicate that this was an earlier Tastee-Freez that was updated with the plastic signs later on. For more, see these websites: 1 and 2.

Tastee-Freez
North Aurora, IL
The North Aurora Tastee-Freez opened in 1967 and this sign is probably from then. The stand had been vacant since at least 2006. However, the building was remodeled in 2010 and is about to reopen (photo at right). As far as I know, this is the only sign of its kind still on display. [second photo thanks Jon Schratz]

former Tastee-Freez
Goldsboro, NC		 former Tastee-Freez
Midlothian, IL
The former Goldsboro Tastee-Freez is an example of the company's sawtooth roof style building. This location is now known as the Sof-T-Shop.

This Midlothian Tastee-Freez seemed to be closed when this photo was taken in 2009. Apparently, the front of the building, where the walk-up window was, has been filled in.

Sam's Tastee Treat
Olathe, KS		 Tastee-Freez
Chilhowie, VA
Sam's Tastee Treat opened as a Tastee-Freez in 1963. It has been Sam's since the mid-1990s. For more, see their website.

This Chilhowie Tastee-Freez still retains some of its plastic signage.
