Hi Everyone! Welcome to Blog #5 :)
Today is March 1st, 2025
One of my personal favorites, Walton’s Ice Cream & More, is a family-run ice cream shop based out of Smithton, Illinois. I have been going to Waltons for the past 6 years; it hands down is the best ice cream shop around! Walton’s provides outdoor seating and a drive-thru. They are known for their traditional flavors of soft-serve ice cream, including vanilla, chocolate, orange, chocolate twist, and orange twist.
Not only does Waltons serve the best ice cream, but they have food as well. They have a long selection of food, ranging from BBQ nachos to Philly cheesesteaks. My favorite thing to order at Waltons is a cotton candy slushie with blueberry boba and a chicken caesar wrap with an order of fries.
My friends and I go to Waltons every summer. It is a great atmosphere and a family-friendly establishment. Walton’s has also done an amazing job interacting with their community. They have worked with the grade school and other local businesses on countless fundraisers. Waltons, like many ice cream shops, is closed almost every day throughout the winter but opens the first week of March. They are open Sunday-Thursday 11 am-9 pm and Friday-Saturday 11 am-10 pm.

Thank you, Kaylee Juenger
Nice blog post! This ice cream shop looks really yummy! If I ever stop by I might have to get your order of the cotton candy slushie with blueberry boba and a chicken caesar wrap with an order of fries because that sounds too good not to pass up. Ice cream shops are always the best places to go with friends especially during the summer time so I totally get the hype!
Great job, Kaylee! Walton’s sounds like such a fun spot, and I love that they’re so involved in the community. Your go-to order sounds delicious! Also, great job including their hours and socials. It makes it super easy for people to check them out. My favorite ice cream flavor is cookie dough. Keep up the good work!
