Dairee Delite: Brantford’s Sweet Tradition Since 1953

Last Updated: 21 July 2025By
Step back in time and taste the nostalgia at Dairee Delite, Brantford's Favourite Ice Cream Spot since 1953. This 50's style ice cream shop isn't just a place to grab dessert it's a piece of local history and a must-visit landmark for generations of families.

A Scoop of History

It all started as Koster's Cream-EEE-Freeze back in 1953 on Brant Ave at Bedford Street. By 1965, the stand moved to King George Road, parked at the Brantford Mall, and rebranded as Dairee Delite.

Here's the fun twist: As local legend has it, this little ice cream stand changed hands in a poker game not once, but twice! The second lucky winner moved it to its current location in the Home Hardware plaza on St. Paul Avenue, where it continues to make memories (and sundaes) today.

What's on the Menu?

  • Classic soft-serve cones that melt in your mouth

  • Banana splits and strawberry shortcakes straight out of a retro dream

  • Frozen cakes for birthdays and celebrations

  • Vegan options (yes, even the famous pineapple soft serve!)

  • Milkshakes, sundaes, floats—you name it, they swirl it!
