Kane Republican

Lick N Sip integrates the Sip Side

- By Theresa Auriemmo Special to the Republican

Lick N Sip in Mount Jewett, owned by Tom Haberberge­r and Mickey Freer, is officially open after purchasing the Tasty Freeze in late 2021.

On Saturday, Tom Haberberge­r, who is largely engaged with local business, was outside of Lick N Sip greeting customers, asking if their order was perfect and thanking the customers.

One major change to the Tasty Freeze that belonged to Bob and Mary Arthurs (Bob & Mary’s Corner, 38 East Main Street, Mount Jewett) back in the 80s is the Sip Side. Though over the years, Bob & Mary’s Corner was demolished and a new building resurrecte­d, the building currently standing has gone through several owners first and then was purchased by Tom and Mickey.

Lick N Sip is currently in the stages of making all ideas available to the community all the while with new ideas arising.

While talking to Haberberge­r outside of Lick N Sip, he told The Kane Republican that he and Mickey are thinking of everyone, including diabetics and lactose intolerant individual­s.

“Stop in and get your picture taken in our new postcard-style painting created by Clarissa Burford from Port Allegany,” Haberberge­r said.

The postcard is Bigfoot-themed with holes to put your face in for a photo. Along with the Bigfoot-theme, there is a Bigfoot crossing sign.

Haberberge­r talked to Earl the Sasquatch and asked if he would like to make appearance­s at the Lick N Sip. Earl stated that he would love to make appearance­s and it would make a “nice addition for the Bigfoot-theme you have going on here.”
