Wells Visitor Center & Ice Cream Parlor

A stop at our parlor, located in the heart of Le Mars’ business district, will sure to please both the young and young-at-heart!  In its new location, the Blue Bunny Ice Cream Parlor offers an outdoor seating area, indoor first floor ice cream bar and table seating, and a grand staircase that leads to a second level of indoor seating where informal comfortable spaces are available for guests to relax and enjoy their ice cream treats.  Historical photos, interactive kiosks and exhibits that highlight Wells company history are integrated throughout the Parlor.  The space also includes a private room that can be reserved for meetings, events and parties. The Blue Bunny Ice Cream Parlor and Museum is now home in the historical George E. Pew building on Central Avenue in downtown Le Mars.  George Pew began his business in downtown Le Mars in this structure in 1875, just six years after the town of Le Mars was incorporated.  His general hardware and agricultural implements company was one of the first businesses in Plymouth County and the state of Iowa.
