Nathan’s Dairy Bar Makes Its Seasonal Comeback

Get ready for another season of addicting ice cream from this Manassas staple.

By Micahi Oppong March 10, 2025 at 8:59 am

As spring blooms and temperatures rise, the beloved Nathan’s Dairy Bar is back and ready to help cool things down. The Manassas ice cream spot is set to reopen Tuesday, March 11.

Winner of the first-ever NoVa Wars: Ice Cream Edition, Nathan’s Dairy Bar been serving the Manassas community for nearly 25 years. It closed for the winter in December.

Try not to get a brain freeze from the delicious menu of soft serve, specialty sundaes, hand-scooped cups and cones, milkshakes, shaved ice, and ice cream floats.

With daily rotating specialty flavors, your tastebuds will leave you wanting more after every visit.

Treat yourself and the family on opening-day visit and see what specialty soft serve flavor they surprise guests with. Previous seasonal flavors have included Cookie Monster, Purple Cow, Reese’s, Captain Crunch, and banana pudding.

Nathan’s is open daily from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. during its operational seasons. 8948 Mathis Ave., Manassas
