Original Rainbow Cone Opens 1st Suburban Store In Lombard

LOMBARD, IL — For nearly 100 years, residents of Chicago's suburbs had to travel into the city —or track down an Original Rainbow Cone truck— to get a sampling of the shop's iconic stacked, multi-favor ice cream cone. That all changed Wednesday, when Original Rainbow Cone opened its first suburban location at 498 E. Roosevelt Rd. in Lombard, ABC 7 reports.

Since 1926, the Original Rainbow Cone has been beloved for its five-layer cones, which come piled high with orange sherbet and pistachio, strawberry, chocolate and Palmer House (vanilla blended with cherries and walnuts). These cones are likely to be a big draw at the Lombard store too, but customers can also order shakes and sundaes in a variety of flavor that include cookie dough, bubble gum, chocolate peanut butter and mint flake.

The mouthwatering menu at the Lombard location also offers some exclusive items, including miniature donuts and RB Mixers, soft-serve ice cream blended with your choice of sweet mix-ins.

The Lombard Original Rainbow Cone, which also features drive-through window, is open Sunday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 11:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m.
