For generations, Ted Drewes has been the destination for tasty frozen custard. The first Ted Drewes ice cream store opened in Florida in 1929, followed in 1930 by the first St. Louis location on Natural Bridge. The South Grand store welcomed its first business in 1931 and a decade later the stand in Chippewa opened.
According to TedDrewes.com, the success of the frozen custard stands has brough the company nationwide attention - especially offers to franchise the stands, something Ted Drewes Jr. says will never happen.
Meanwhile, the holiday season brings another St. Louis tradition to Ted Drewes in the form of Christmas trees. Every year Canadian Balsam Fir Christmas trees are shipped from Nova Scotia to St. Louis.
