Ben & Jerry's (1,625 square feet)
901 Emmet Street North, Barracks Road Shopping Center, Charlottesville, VA
Opened in July 1999; previously Baskin-Robbins (winter 1977-April 22nd, 1999)
Barracks Road Shopping Center was the first major shopping destination of its' type in Charlottesville, and since being established in 1959 it's gone through a series of expansions and additions. One of the first was the Ken Johnson Cafeteria building, a buffet restaurant similar to Piccadilly or K&W, and while the restaurant did occupy most of the structure there was a little sliver of space included on the right end for an additional tenant. I haven't been able to figure out what business originally occupied it, but it most notably existed as a Baskin-Robbins for 22 years. They pulled out in April 1999 and very quickly Ben & Jerry's took over the operation, opening smack dab in the middle of the summer! I'm not really sure how many alterations have taken place since that 1999 opening, but my assumption is that the way it looks now is mostly original aside from changing some signage and seating. It has a horizontal layout where the ice cream counter and single-use restroom are to the left and the seating is to the right, which seems to be just the right amount (it's located close to UVA, but most students that'd give them business aren't around during the summer). While Ben & Jerry's is admittedly a little pricey, I do wish they were as ubiquitous as Dairy Queen and Cold Stone are, considering that this one and the one in Williamsburg are the closest locations to Richmond!
