On the way to Fort Morgan we stopped at Tacky Jacks for lunch, and afterward my family disappeared on me while I was paying the check. I went looking for them and poked my head into this cozy ice cream parlor called Pelican Scoops. They weren't there, but... ice cream. As soon as I found them I dragged them into this shop so they could get some dessert.
And of course, that was a bit of an excuse, because this Fat Daddy is all about some ice cream, especially when I see Sea Salt Caramel on the menu.
Austyn served us with a smile, and I saw this sign suggesting I post a Google Review. Well, that's one of the hats I wear, so here I am.
Here are some photos of the sign on the front, the inside, Austyn behind the register, and a vid of the view from the balcony in front of the shop, where you can almost always get a view of the shop's namesake, out there dive-bombing scenic Mobile Bay for some tasty fish.
Contrary to the sign on the door, the pelicans were kind enough to leave our ice cream alone, though if there were any fish flavors all bets would be off. (Sorry, pelicans, no fish flavors).
My wife got buttered pecan, and I got the sea salt caramel. Both of these flavors were stunning. It was my daughter's birthday, so she was quick to order the birthday cake flavor, and the fact that she never offered me a taste should tell me something, and the look on her face as she ate it told me the rest. My grandson has a severe dairy allergy but they had snow cones (HULK was a big hit).
As a quick recap, this little shop might have been a bit hard to find but it's well-worth the search, as the food was excellent, the atmosphere friendly, the prices reasonable and the counters spotless. Anybody stopping for Tacky Jacks should be aware of this 5-star follow-up. My family may live a ways away but we'll definitely be return customers.
Dietary restrictions: My grandson is DEATHLY allergic to dairy. He carries an EpiPen. Austyn was quick to suggest a snow cone, and though she served dairy to the rest of us his serving was kept physically segregated (yep, I noticed that nice touch).
Kid-friendliness: The shop is brightly colored and the glass display wall is wiped clean, and low enough that a 4yo could look at the ice cream on display. No lifting required.

A scoop of your favorite Blue Bell Ice Cream served up by the friendliest face in Fort Morgan is an absolute MUST! Austyn is the big brained heroine out of a summer read novel, you’ll love her as much as we do!

For me, the mint chocolate ice cream wasn't exceptional, but the atmosphere was fantastic.
