Dairy Queen, 462540 State Road 200 Yulee Florida: Fall 2017   4 comments

Posted at 11:49 pm in closing

I noticed on my last trip to Fernandina, that this old-school Dairy Queen on historic Florida Route A1A, just off of I-95 in Yulee Florida was closed. (You can see it, poorly, in operation in the first shot).

If I had to guess a cause, it would be the interminable road construction on this stretch of A1A, which has made this parking lot almost inaccessible, especially if west bound. Of course the walk-up design has its drawbacks as well: One review advises eating in your car to avoid the no-see-ums.

For now the nearby produce & souvenir stand is holding on despite the acess problems. I would be sad to see that go, as it has been there forever, and always has good citrus & candies.

  1. Judging from the architecture, I would say that the building with the blue roof was originally a Stuckey's.

  2. @Tom -- yeah, pretty sure you're right.

  3. Oh, man, I remember that old Dairy Queen off Route A1A in Yulee. It's sad to see it closed. The road construction in that area was a nightmare, and I guess it took its toll on the business. Plus, dealing with those no-see-ums while trying to enjoy your ice cream outside? Not the best experience. Wonder if they'll ever reopen or if something new will take its place? Any locals have the scoop?
