Cape May Court House has been experiencing a wave of growth in recent years. The town’s streets, Mechanic Street specifically, are now adorned with intimate dining spots, charming shops, and captivating experiences, all crafted by passionate small business owners.

As part of our ongoing coverage of the Mechanic Street Series, we are excited to introduce our followers to the newest addition to the scene, Prohibition Creamery. This unique locale promises to captivate your taste buds and is a must-visit destination

Prohibition Creamery prides itself on serving up more than just ordinary milkshakes. Their 24-ounce milkshakes are a spectacle in themselves, topped with homemade desserts crafted by pastry chef, Jennalynn Peteani. But what sets Prohibition Creamery apart is the use of liquid nitrogen to create these sweet treats. This cutting-edge technique not only produces smooth and creamy ice cream but also adds an element of excitement and wonder to the experience.

At Prohibition Creamery, expect to encounter a diverse menu of flavors curated by Chef Peter Karapanagoitis. Embracing their innovative spirit, they offer unique and eclectic flavors that go beyond the traditional vanilla and chocolate. From adventurous combinations like lavender and limoncello to indulgent delights such as brownies and Nutella, there's something to satisfy every palate.

The Creamery is the latest addition to the esteemed Kara Restaurant Group. Founded in 2002 by brothers Yianni Karapanagiotis and Peter Karapanagoitis, the Kara Restaurant Group has been at the forefront of Cape May County's culinary scene. With a portfolio of 11 B.Y.O.B. restaurants, 2 sun retreat cafes, a catering company, and an event planning company, their expertise and passion for innovative concepts are evident in each establishment. Joining the ranks of George’s Place locations, Vintage, Shamone, Y.B., Brine, and Petunia, Prohibition Creamery promises to carry forward the legacy of culinary excellence.

Conveniently located on Mechanic Street, Prohibition Creamery shares its building with its sister restaurant, Petunia BYOB. You'll find it nestled among other local favorites such as Carvery 101, Thomas Matthews Designs, True Kitchen, and Coho Cafe. 

For the month of June, Prohibition Creamery welcomes visitors from Thursday to Sunday, 6-10pm. Starting in July, they will open from 5-10pm, and plan to host happy hour specials from 5-6pm, offering 50% off shakes, and a reverse happy hour from 9-10pm with the same deal.  

In the meantime, we’re debating on either the Campfire Black Out or the Bam Bam for our first taste. Thoughts?
