An iconic ice cream shop, celebrating its 60th anniversary in Central New York, is finally open for the season.

Bonomo's - Clinton

Bonomo's Ice Cream shop on Route 5 in Clinton opened for the 60th year on St Patrick's Day. They picked a good day to start scooping up the tasty ice cream too. Temperatures were near 60.

Guy Bonomo and his wife Frances started the family-run ice cream shop in 1962 when it was called Dari Isle. The name changed to Bonomo's in 1983 but the homemade hard ice cream is still the same today.
