The San Marcos Main Street Program has designated Rhea’s Ice Cream Partner of the Month to celebrate the shop’s growth and its 10-year anniversary.
Rhea’s Ice Cream was first started by Rhea Ortamond who had a passion for homemade ice cream and unique flavors. She continued growing her business and perfecting several flavors that are now the original foundation flavors of the shop until she moved to Chicago in 2015. Ortamond sold the shop to Lindsey Belk and The Root Cellar Café, who have helped keep the doors open and have continued to grow the business to three locations.
Rhea’s is located at 318 N. LBJ Dr., just a block away from the historic downtown square. Business hours are Monday-Sunday 12 p.m. to 10 p.m. Some of their unique flavors consist of Circus Animal Cookie, Banana Pudding, Big Red, Smores, Avocado Coconut and a fan favorite of Goat Cheese and Raspberry Jam.
