Please join us as we grow into Seattle's breakfast & dessert Cafe.  What?  Where else can you have Zoka Coffee, A piece of Shoofly Pie savory quiche, a bagel from Seattle Bagel, a cup of Umpqua Oatmeal, and then stick around for Seattle's best frozen dessert?  Right here at Old School.  We are open at our Capitol Hill location at 9AM daily.  Frozen Custard flows at Noon as usual.  

Rick Drouet, Old School General Manager, announced that Old School Frozen Custard will feature a Coffee and Breakfast service beginning at 7 AM, Thursday, December 15th.  Along with Zoka Coffee and Tea, they will serve quiche from Shoofly Pie as well as muffins, scones, and bagels.  We will also carry Umqua Oatmeal for that quick filling bite on your way to work or classes.  Free WiFi is also available for those who need an office in a hurry or just want to stop and watch the holiday season go by.  Hope to see you there soon.

With the holidays now upon us, Old School has brought back many of the seasonal flavors that have created such excitement around Seattle.  Pumpkin has been a customer favorite since we opened our first store in 2007, and now we have added Gingersnap Cookie to our Pumpkin for a great new flavor.  And as requested , we will run our Pumpkiin Cheesecake in December!  In addition,  we will be running our Candy Cane frozen custard as a daily flavor through Christmas this year. 

We start with the perfect recipe, using less butterfat and calories than premium and super-premium ice creams, and a little egg yolk for smoothness (1.4% minimum, pasteurized).  Then slow churn it, to add less air (20% for frozen custard vs. 50%-120% for ice creams) and more density .  Finally, make it fresh daily -- and presto!
