#17, Ashley’s, Guilford

Kind of like the Golden Gloves in baseball.

Okay classic Connecticut franchise. Well known in the New Haven area but IMHO they generally fail to live up to the hype.

I had a coffee-chocolate milkshake and Maureen had her usual kiddie cone of chocolate soft serve with chocolate “shots”. On one hand Mo thought the soft serve was tasty whereas I found my milkshake interesting but eh…nothing special. It was thick throughout but in general lacked any flavor. Maybe it was the combo but generally I found it lacked flavor and I thought it was eh nothing special.

Prices were on the high side but not crazy high. They are located in a nicer strip mall on the Boston Post Road. Somewhat typical store front, with some nice outdoor seating.

I would equate Ashley’s to the Golden Gloves in baseball…once you win it, you win it for several years regardless of how many balls you drop! E-6 Ashley’s.
