Nobody can hang with the state of Wisconsin when it comes to all-things-dairy. You already know these milkshakes will taste better than anything you've ever had.

I get to say things like that because I'm from Wisconsin. I'm also an ice cream lover and I can tell you, you don't stay in the dairy business for over one hundred years unless what you produce is top-notch.

In the 1930s, the people of Watertown, Wisconsin were now tasting some very different Mullen-family creations, ICE CREAM.

The family opened a small ice cream shop on Watertown’s Main Street and the family's dairy greatness is still being served today.

There is even a second Mullen's Dairy Bar location in Oconomowoc. You'll also find Mullen's ice cream in stores across the state.
