Waukegan is in Illinois, in the Midwest, where summers are warm, winters are cold and snowy, and most errands are done by car; businesses keep steady year-round hours with the usual holiday changes. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Waukegan follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Chanced upon this cute little ice cream store and enjoyed some delicious ice cream! Special shoutout to the manager Lettie and her husband Mario. They were super friendly and once she knew my two kids has nut allergies she went above and beyond what any ice cream store has ever done to make us feel safe! We felt like she truly cared and was so sweet about it.

Visited on the next to last day of the season, so they won't reopen until mid-April. Cute little place with friendly owners serving great ice cream, sandwiches, and drinks. The butter pecan was great (I was told it's made by a couple guys from WI). Very local vibe, right at Waukegan harbor. Most of the seating is outside with umbrellas. Public toilets are down the street. A park with picnic tables is across the street and the view is of boats and Lake Michigan. Parking off season is easy. The inside is very small and they didn't have coffee, but again this was the end of the season.

I honestly believe the BLT at Dockside is the best BLT in the world! The bacon is nearly paper thin but not dry. It’s translucent and delicious! I ordered my sandwich with extra light mayo. And have been having it outside on hot days. My biggest surprise was it is refreshing too! Pictures attached for your salivating. And it’s nice to have Lake Michigan just at your view in front while you eat. The service is exactly what you need when eating dockside. No rush, no QR codes to order at the table. Just old school order in person and calmly wait for your sandwich to be freshly made. Just relax and enjoy the beach. It is a happy time here.

Place was cute, stopped by after working in area. Right off the doc, I think the flavor I got was meh tastes like the ice cream cups with fudge from school with a spoon but I’m sure the other flavors are great. I tried my friends and theirs was yummy the coconut explosion with the homemade cone so yummy

Very cute little area of town right by the marina. Not very big inside but a few tables with umbrellas on the patio or you can walk to the water and eat at the picnic tables. Very friendly service.
