Lactose Free & Sugar Free - Niko's Cream & Bean Meets Customer's Needs

Lactose Intolerant or Needing Sugar-Free Ice Cream? I have found a location that serves ice cream and caters to each need!

I was so excited to find out a little more information out about a place you all live by, Niko's Cream and Bean.  My own children have a lot of allergies and one is is plagued with lactose intolerance which makes going out for ice cream B-O-R-I-N-G!

I have passed the Niko's Cream and Bean so many times and just never stopped, but today was different I wanted to know what they had.  I happened to run into the owner John Harerras and we spoke briefly. 

I found out that he offers Lactose Free Ice Cream and Sugar Free Ice Cream.  In addition, the regular ice cream menu boasts 21 other flavors of ice cream and home made waffle cones.

Because it is a bit of a trek for me to make from the North Hills while I was at Niko's Cream and Bean I picked up a few quarts of the lactose-free ice cream and brought them home to enjoy a bit of Niko's at home. The ice cream we ate was really good, creamy and old-fashioned. 

If your child is lactose intolerant or you are, you should give Niko's Cream and Bean a try, it's right in your backyard!
