Nothing Like A Good View

    In Athens shops range from your local and family owned store to the traditional chain restaurants known around the world.  The shop we choose to visit was "Whits Frozen Custard", located on the corner of Court street and Union.  Our first impression of Whits was the comforting and welcoming atmosphere that made it easy to talk with friends.  The furniture and colors used to decorate the inside are visually appealing and inviting.  From the velvet couches to the spectacular 180 degree view, there is nothing like it in Athens.  The natural lighting combined with the dimmed lights inside make it for easy reading and homework.  Whits offers a wide variety of coffee making the customers coming back for more.  They also offer popular favorites like the coney dog and the banana split.  There are always people there but the wait is never more than a few minutes.

      This is the perfect place to catch up and reconnect with old friends.  Customers vary from kids who want a delicious treat to businessmen reading the newspaper.  The location is ideal and convenient for those looking for some coffee on the way to class or work.  Whits also has chairs outside letting people enjoy the beautiful weather.  

                      

        Whits fulfills the community needs by creating an environment for the visiting family and also the college student.  Families love getting custard there after shopping in the hot sun at the local university stores.  You can accomplish many things here and most importantly a good time.  Whits is only one of a few ice cream/custard shops in Athens.  It satisfies peoples taste buds, one lick at a time.
