Coastal Cookie Dough to Close Its Doors in Conway
In a bittersweet turn of events, residents of Conway, just a short drive from Myrtle Beach, are saying goodbye to one of their favorite dessert spots. Coastal Cookie Dough, located at 3320 4th Avenue, has announced it will close its doors for good on October 27th. After a heartfelt message on their Facebook page posted on October 19th, fans of the shop have been left with mixed emotions as they process the news.
Sweet Success Story
Coastal Cookie Dough has been a staple for sweet-toothed locals since it started as a franchise called Cookie Dough Bliss in the Coastal Grand Mall back in 2018. Just one year later, the name changed to Coastal Cookie Dough, and by 2021, it blossomed into a beloved brick-and-mortar shop. Known for its incredible selection of edible cookie dough and ice cream, this cozy spot became a go-to for dessert lovers throughout the area.
What’s on the Menu?
For those who’ve yet to experience it, Coastal Cookie Dough offered a dreamy selection of nearly 20 flavors of edible cookie dough. From classic chocolate chip to imaginative frosted animal cookie, there was truly something for everyone! But wait, there’s more! Customers could also choose from an astounding 30 flavors of ice cream, combining them into delicious sundaes, milkshakes, or even ice cream sandwiches. Each visit was guaranteed to be a fun and sweet adventure!
A Fond Farewell
So why is this cherished spot closing? The owners shared in their Facebook post that “it is what is best for our family,” leaving many wondering what led to this tough decision. While it’s unfortunate, the owners recognized how much the support from the community meant during their time in Conway. They expressed their “heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering support over the years”, reflecting on the incredible journey filled with sweet memories made with customers over the years.
Last Call for Treats
If you’ve got gift cards or punch cards stashed away, you better make your way to the shop before it closes! The owners encouraged everyone to visit and take advantage of their last days in business, hinting that the official closing date could come sooner than October 27th if they run out of inventory. So, if you’ve been itching to indulge in some delicious edible cookie dough or ice cream, now’s the time to go!
Community Impact
As news of the shop’s closing spreads, many locals are reminiscing about their favorite moments spent there—be it sharing a sundae with friends or savoring that unique dough flavor that became their go-to. Coastal Cookie Dough wasn’t just a place to grab dessert; it served as a community hub where families could enjoy a sweet treat together.
The Future
While it’s sad to say goodbye to such a sweet establishment, we can only hope the owners embark on new adventures that bring them joy. And who knows? Maybe one day, we’ll see a new dessert shop pop up in Conway that carries on the cookie dough legacy!
