I scream, you scream, we all scream for (Rainbow Cone) ice cream—because the iconic South Side spot is expanding to Michigan Avenue. The 100-year-old ice cream shop, which started in Beverly in 1926, is opening the doors to its 26th location at 163 N. Michigan Ave. next week.

Directly across the street from Millennium Park, the Bean and the Jay Pritzker Pavilion, the new Original Rainbow Cone location, inside a former Protein Bar, is a welcome addition to the bustling area just down the street from the Theater District and the Chicago River.
Rainbow Cone will be serving its signature sliced—never scooped—five-flavor cones, featuring a mountain of chocolate, strawberry, Palmer House (vanilla with cherries), pistachio and orange sherbet ice cream.
