Known for their large portions and low prices, King Kone first opened in Merrimack in 1972 and since then has been serving the community for more than five decades. According to the business, it has remained family owned and operated while continuing to serve fresh soft serve.

One customer wrote on social media, "best ice cream flavors, they change so you never get tired of them, and always top quality!"

What makes King Kone even sweeter is the generations of memories attached to the place. King Kone says, "parents and grandparents now bring their children for the same ice cream experience they enjoyed when they were kids".
