Love Is on the Menu: Lickety Split Features “Heart and Soul” Ice Cream, Just in Time for Valentine’s Week

Lickety Split Cafe

Valentine’s Week at Lickety Split is always a whirlwind. The name alone grabs your attention. Laura, Carol’s daughter, who co-owns the shop, dreamed it up herself.

Lickety Split is packed right now, and regulars aren’t the only ones crowding in. People are coming for the “Heart and Soul,” their Valentine’s Week ice cream special, featuring cherries and chocolate swirl ice cream; it’s flying out of the case. With 32 ice cream flavors, there’s something for everyone, but this week, “Heart and Soul” is the star.

But Lickety Split isn’t just about ice cream. They’re serving up homemade soups and sandwiches, plus they’ve just finished remodeling the place. The new look? Total 1950s nostalgia. Think classic memorabilia, bright colors, and a vibe that feels both retro and fresh. You’ll want to check it out in person.

Hand-dipped delectables

And if you’re looking for something icy and a little different, try their new Dole Whip. They’ve got it in many flavors, from orange and pineapple, you name it. It’s cold, refreshing, and a colossal hit.

If you’re searching for a fun, unique Valentine’s treat, head to Lickety Split in Englewood. This family-run spot has been at the heart of the community for almost 30 years. Locals love it, and visitors get hooked fast.

The menu goes way beyond dessert. You’ve got juicy burgers, hand-cut fries that are perfectly crispy, homemade chili, and daily specials that keep things interesting. The Lickety Spuds, homemade potato chips, are addictive. And if you’re in the mood for something lighter, the salads and sandwiches hit the spot.

Their fresh fruit bouquets are beautiful, fun, and perfect for any occasion, especially for Valentine’s Day. People love giving them as gifts, and they make a great centerpiece if you’re hosting. They’ll deliver, or you can swing by and pick one up.

Fresh Fruit Bouquets

So, whether you want a burger and fries, a scoop (or three) of ice cream, or a fresh fruit bouquet, Lickety Split is ready to serve. Stop in soon; Carol, Laura and the whole Lickety Split team can’t wait to see you.
