Within steps from the sand “The Treat” is a great stop for 2 treats in one, tasty breakfast and old fashioned ice cream!
Tucked away in a big old fashioned beach house that used to be the a hotel at the beginning of the last century, I was surprised to learn that it’s current incarnation as a breakfast and ice cream spot has only been for the past 27 years, as it gives off the vibe of having been there since Rehoboth became a vacation destination forever ago.
Eating breakfast on one of the two big screen porches or in the clean old fashioned dining room is a beachy treat— eggs, double thick toast, bacon, pancakes and the like await you. Tasty breakfast fare in the sunshine is a great way to start a vacation day.
After 11:30 the doors close to ready for the 1pm reopening when it is transformed into an old fashioned ice cream parlor. Order at the counter then perch on a porch, or take it to go as you stroll down the boardwalk. The portions are generous and the toppings are varied, making everyone happy!
At the Royal Treat step up the stairs and step back in time.

Elaine – I don’t know much more than what I wrote, but I’m sure the folks down in Rehoboth would have a wealth of information! Keep me posted on your progress!
