Loveland will be losing a coffee shop/ice cream store on November 27th. This one hits close to home for me. I have gone there for coffee (maybe a doughnut or two) and to use their free wi-fi. Also, I quoted the owner in my recent article in the Northern Colorado Business Report (NCBR) on all the new yogurt shops coming to northern Colorado.
The restaurant I am talking about is Penguin’s Ice Cream and Coffee. It’s located at teh shopping center on the northeast corner of Eisenhower and Madison in Loveland.
Here is a copy of what is posted on their website. Not that they will still be selling their ice cream in Loveland, and will be opening an new coffee venue soon

On November 27th, the last ice cream will be scooped at Penguins Ice Cream, and we will close up shop. Be sure to redeem your gift certificates before we close!
We will try to continue selling our ice cream wholesale to local restaurants. It can currently be found at Fatso’s Diner on the west end of Loveland.
We also plan to open a new coffee venue next to the Conoco gas station west of the intersection of Hwy 34/I-25. Pre-packed pints and quarts of our most popular ice cream may also continue to be available there unless we cease production entirely.
Please follow the latest developments by visiting the store to sign up for e-mail updates.
Thank you, patrons and friends, for all of your support over the years. We hope Penguins has been as fun for you as it has been for us. We will never forget the way children’s faces lit up as they watched our train start to move on its track around the
store. . .the sticky summer evenings full of Blue Moon ice cream. . .the way the store filled up with coffee and conversations on snowy afternoons. The memories made will last a lifetime.
It has truly been a privilege to serve coffee and homemade ice cream to Northern Colorado over the past few years.
It is with great sadness that we close Penguins Ice Cream, but we are looking forward to these newest projects and hope that you are, too!
THANKS TO MARISSA FOR POINTING THIS OUT TO ME.

Well, technically it is a Johnstown restaurant that closed. We are taking the Spicy Pickle located at Hiway 34 and I-25 by Bonefish, etc. One of my “beeps” told me today that the local sandwich shop has closed.
