Family owned and operated for over 20 years!
In the fall of 2003, the former “Bill’s Buy Rite” convenience store on Crystal Avenue in Derry was purchased. With lots of enthusiasm, new life was brought to the old building… this time in the form of an ice cream shop.
On May 4th, 2004 Moo’s Place Homemade Ice Cream was opened. That first chocolate frappe served was a big thrill and the beginning of a new, exciting journey. The mission? To exceed customers’ expectations. The vision was of friendly, customer focused staff serving our super-premium homemade ice cream at our family friendly shop. Do all this while having a great time!
In June 2012, Moos’ second full-service shop in North Salem, NH was opened. We love the ice cream business and we love people even more, and hope it shows!
In March of 2022 the founders retired and Moo’s Place was sold to new owners. You likely didn’t notice the change as the mission remains the same – to make and serve New Hampshire’s Finest Homemade Ice Cream!
Moo’s in the Community
We understand how important community is and that we couldn’t do this without our amazing customers. Giving back to the local Derry and Salem communities is very important to us. Moo’s annually supports the Salem Animal Rescue League, and the Derry and Hampstead Library Summer reading programs. At the end of the season, we are sure to remember our local Boys and Girls Clubs, senior centers, Derry and Salem fire and police and other first responders, Parkland Hospital, Sonshine Soup Kitchen and the Upper Room with ice cream donations.
