An OCThen reader going by the name of "CoxPilot" asks if anyone remembers an ice cream store called "Ridgeways Ice Cream" located on 17th street, near the I-5...
Does anyone remember a Ridgeways ice cream store on east 17th st. in Santa Ana, right next to the 5 freeway (on the North side) by the RR tracks? (Last I saw of the building it was a Bar). I worked there in my last couple of years at S.A. High School. 1958-1959. Then went to work at the Flight Circle at Disneyland. Ridgeways sold primarily to restaurants, but had a couple of stores. They made all their own stuff. Moved from Calif. in 1996.

  • Used to go to Ridgeways in the early/mid 50's with my parents and sister after dinner for an ice cream, driving in our '50 Buick, always got chocolate chip, big chunks of chocolate, then we'd follow search lights, see where they led us, usually to a store opening or a car lot having a sale. Ridgeways went from bar to I believe now it's bail bonds.
