Bruster's Real Ice Cream is anticipating a November opening for its newest location at 4836 FM 1488, Conroe, near the Xscape Theatre.

According to franchise owner Edmund Martinez, this will be the second location in the area, with the first being at 7939 Louetta Road, Spring, since 2005.

"Bruster’s Ice Cream is very much a boutique franchise started in Bridgewater, PA," Martinez said in an email. "The franchise owns the dairy, ships the product to the store, and we make it fresh daily serving the ice cream from walk-up windows or drive-thru."

Martinez noted there are no in-house dining options within the franchise. www.brusters.com
