About this business

Many believe that Abe Doumar, founder of Doumar's Cones & Barbecue, gave the world its first ice cream cone. Doumar was a traveling salesman retailing paperweights at the famous St. Louis World's Fair in 1904.

The barbecue, limeades, Taylor Pork roll sandwich ( where the heck else can you get one of these) and just the place in general. This is one of the last vestiges of a time almost gone by. Uniquely Norfolk Americana. You owe it to your kids and grandkids to imprint this into their memories.
