14 days at 102 Fairmont …

Two weeks ago tonight The Merry Dairy opened its doors at Fairmont and Gladstone, marking a new chapter in The Merry Dairy’s journey that began five years ago.

One thing has made the past two weeks so special, not to mention the past five years, has been all the Merry Dairy “portraits” taken by our customers.

To mark those first 14 days, here are 14 (or so!) wonderful Instagram posts from some of those customers. And stay tuned to Facebook, Twitter and our web site for details about the Fairmont Sundae Social celebration, happening September 17 at the store. And there are so many people to thank – from the amazing team at Bridgestone Construction, to Spruce Design, and Brandbot Digital Marketing, and many more.

And our biggest thanks to everyone who has taken the time and come by The Merry Dairy over the past two weeks!

14 posts for 14 days

We love team meetings!

Had a team meeting at The Merry Dairy .. the Salted Caramel and the Bourbon Cherry were to-die-for… but you’ll have to take my word for it.. cause I ate it before I could take a picture🍦

Beautiful!

A work meeting in the East End today was the perfect excuse to introduce a coworker to @themerrydairy . And for me – utter delight at the new gluten free waffle cone. Heaven.
