Despite living in the area for 30 years, I had never been to The Control Tower. We will be back. The ice cream was as good as you would hope for form an ice cream shop. Unlike a lot of the the other places like it, there's plenty of seating, as well as mini golf, go karts, and batting cages. Being able to watch incoming planes adds the "airport viewing area" aspect that makes it unique.
You gotta try the trash can sundae! Pictured is the large but they do have a less daunting regular size. They have at least 2 dozen hard ice cream flavors and a handful of soft serve flavors and will post specials and even secret menu items on their social media page.
Great spot for a frozen treat. They have multiple flavors of soft serve as well as non dairy ice cream and Dole Whip. The kid size was more than enough for each of us, I can’t even imagine what the large is like! I have come to accept how expensive things are and they are not more expensive than the competition. I do think that a dollar for sprinkles is a bit high though. Nice tables in and out side and in and out of the shade. And you can watch the planes!
