Popular Ice Cream Shop On Cape Cod Announces New Owners
The transition includes the transfer of not just the business but also its cherished recipes and traditions, which the previous owners have shared.
A beloved Cape Cod ice cream business is entering a new chapter as Four Seas Ice Cream announces new ownership. The Centerville establishment, known for generations of serving frozen treats to locals and visitors alike, has been transferred from Doug and Peggy Warren to new owners Josh and Lesley McElhattan.
According to a statement shared by Four Seas Ice Cream with their community on social media, the McElhattans, who are Centerville residents, bring both personal connection and enthusiasm to their new venture. "We've dreamed of opening an ice cream shop for years, but never in our wildest dreams did we imagine that we would get to operate our very favorite one!" the couple expressed in their announcement.
The connection to Four Seas runs deep for the new owners, particularly for Lesley, who as a Massachusetts native grew up visiting the establishment during summer months. The statement reveals she introduced Josh to the ice cream shop 24 years ago when they began dating.
Addressing potential concerns about changes to this historic establishment, the new owners emphasized their commitment to maintaining Four Seas' legacy. "We want to assure everyone who loves Four Seas that we love it too, and we are devoted to preserving and sharing this history of great ice cream and great family memories," they stated in their Facebook post.
The transition includes the transfer of not just the business but also its cherished recipes and traditions, which the previous owners have shared with the McElhattans. The new owners expressed their gratitude to the Warrens in their statement, thanking them for "generously sharing with us your recipes, traditions, and support."
