OUR BEGINNINGS


In 1956, our location served as a fast-food ice cream and hamburger shop that was established by Harold L. and Dorothy Dunton. Known as Tastee-Freez, our location was one of the first soft serve franchises in the Nation. Subsequent owners included Mrs. Roberta Elder, Dana E. Wright, and Galen Mielke.

In later years, the building transformed into other eateries, including a BBQ Pit and breakfast spot. In late 2017, James Pigneri purchased the property, and in the following year established the Copper Tap Grille.
