REVERE, Mass. (WBZ NewsRadio) — Twist & Shake Ice Cream announced a bittersweet goodbye to its Revere Beach location.
The family-owned ice cream business posted on social media Friday saying the last day of operations for the Revere Beach location will be on Monday, Oct. 13.
“This is one of the hardest posts we've ever had to write,” the post said. “For over two decades, we've had the absolute joy of serving this amazing community.”
Twist & Shake was founded by the Queen family in 1998. The Revere Beach location opened in 2002, cooling off beach goers with ice cream for the last 23 years.
In the post, the company thanked their employees and thousands of loyal customers for the years of memories and reassured them that this isn’t the end.
“We will be back! Bigger, Better, and Sweeter than ever,” they said.
The Winthrop location on Shirley Street will remain open.
