Doumar's Cones & BBQ first opened in 1907 at the Ocean View Amusement Park. That building was destroyed by a hurricane in 1933 and they reopened here in 1934. Today's building and canopy designs reflect a 1954 renovation.
Doumar's claims to have invented the waffle ice cream cone (Abe Doumar sold them at the St. Louis Fair in 1904). They still use the cone-making machine and offer carhop service. Doumar's once had a Detroit location and another in Fort Lauderdale, FL from 1950-1962. For more, see these websites: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. |
