Ice cream shops will come and go, but Braum's will always have our heart.
Why it matters: The Oklahoma City-based chain has remained relatively affordable, allowing parents to treat their kids without breaking the bank.
Many of us who grew up poor in North Texas can relate to the thrill of posting up at a booth with loved ones and not feeling as guilty about getting a cone or sundae.
Vibe check: Most Braum's locations look like they haven't been updated in years, offering large booths, gray tables and large product pictures on the walls. You can buy fast food and groceries, too.
Our favorite flavors: Rocky road, mint chocolate chip, and cherries, pecans and cream. We love pumpkin from their holiday flavors.
