If there’s one thing to keep you fooled alongside this weather that it’s still summertime its a Flight of Italian Ice from us!
Seriously, let’s take this random Tuesday of gorgeous weather and have a Summer Celebration! If we keep the energy up no way this cold weather can come! 😀😀
Have no fear, Ava’s is here! (Did we nail the super hero landing?)
With the spooky Halloween season just around the corner, take heart in knowing Ava’s has your back! If this isnt a super hero shot we don’t know what is. Nothing feels as secure as consistency and we have that in spades. Every scoop we serve has enough heart to get through the spookiest of seasons!
❤️🎃👻❤️
We are open Tuesady through Friday 2-7pm and 12-7pm on the weekends!
We gotta keep these vibes going! If Chicago isnt ready for the cold neither are we!
So while we have the sun out, come on through for a Flight! It’s the best way to try all 4 fruits and making a decision on just 1 or 2 can leave you as indecisive as this weather!
We are open Tuesday-Friday 2-7 pm and weekends 12-7pm
Happy Monday! We’re going to be open today from 3-7p! Keeping the pleasant weather here to stay around is our duty! See you here!
Is there a container too large?!
We don’t think so! It’s still a ways out before we close for the winter season, but it’ll be time to stock up for the off season soon! What’s the largest container you’d use to horde your Ava’s Italian Ice? The biggest that’ll fit in the freezer? 😎
Thanks everyone for all the wonderful times throughtout this season. We are still open Tues-Fri 2-7pm and Weekends 12–7pm
As a reminder for the remainder of the season we are closed on Mondays. Better get a bit extra today to have that start of the week treat you’re gonna want tomorrow!
There’s no better way to treat yourself, or your body, than Ava’s when it comes to a sweet treat. With no added artificial flavors, sweeteners, or coloring you know what you are putting into your body and we think thats important!
We know it’s a bit spooky, but we promise it’s ok!
As this season is coming to a close, we are moving into our October hours of operation so we will be closed on Mondays starting next week!
Have no fear, you can still grab your favorite treat Tuesday through Friday 2-7pm or on the weekends 12-7pm. Grab all the flights you can before we close up during the Winter season!
Happy October! Spooky season is here! 👻🎃
Not to frighten you, we are going to be closed on Mondays for the rest of the season. Don’t worry though! To sweeten the announcement and ease the pain here’s our new fruits for the month! Pear is always a unique fave. You gotta try!
Come see us Tuesday through Friday 2-7pm and weekends 12-7pm
It’s a take it easy kinda Sunday. So make sure you’re relaxing and taking time for yourself!
We will be open today 12-7pm if you’re looking for a little treat yourself moment. Nothing more satisfying than the look of a few Ava’s scoops in a flight 😉
Have a great day!
