Anthony Womack is a young business owner at only 24 years old. He opened up, What’s the Scoop, a music inspired ice cream shop. According to The San Francisco Standard, a local online newspaper that interviewed Womack, the ice cream shop hopes to install a recording studio in the upcoming months.
Womack says he wants to do two things, create a space where the community can meet to enjoy a cool treat and give his neighborhood a creative outlet.
Going out for ice cream in the Bayview has normally meant picking up a pint at a nearby grocery store. That’s why Womack is excited to offer the community a space to come together. The shop is inspired by both a love for ice cream and music.
You can find creative treats named after favorite music artists from Mint Condition to Frank Ocean.
Womack has received a warm welcome from his community, including support from San Francisco’s Mayor London Breed and mentorship from Linda Mitchell of Mitchell’s Ice Cream. The shop received a $50,000 grant from the city’s Economic and Workforce Development to help begin its operation.
You can find What’s the Scoop at 5668 Third St. at Armstrong Avenue.
