Queens Car Rentals and the Lemon Ice King of Corona
It's a hot summer's day and you are travelling in your Queens car rental looking for a cool refreshing treat to take the sting out of the summer scorcher. But what? Take your Queens car rental down to the Lemon Ice King of Corona and grab one of the tastiest ways to beat the heat! The Italian ice treat has been served at the Lemon Ice King of Corona for generations. It has been named as one of the best places to check out in Queens, so you can't pass up the opportunity to stop by when passing by in your Queens car rental!
Located at 52-02 108th Street in Corona, Queens, New York City, the Lemon Ice King of Corona is a great Queens car rental stop especially before or after a Mets game or a visit to the nearby Flushing Meadows-Corona Park. The price is just right as well! Prices start at $1 for a small paper-cup full - a very affordable treat for everyone in your Queens car rental to enjoy!
The Lemon Ice King draws visitors from throughout the tri-state region, especially families who left the area and now return for an ice and old memories. And because of its close proximity to Shea Stadium, the US Open, the Corona side of Flushing Meadows Park, and the Louis Armstrong Museum, it makes for a great tourist destination for any Queens car rental customer.
More than a Lemon!
Although the name of the treat is called Lemon Ice, you can get just about any fruit or chocolate flavoured ice as well. Grab your favourite flavour and take a stroll and enjoy all that Queens has to offer! Who would think that something as simple as flavoured ice, could be so good! There's nothing fancy, nothing even that extra-ordinary about the ices. It's a no-nonsense establishment (ice is all they do), perfectly set in a teeming Queens neighborhood full of Italian stores, small businesses, and booming Dominican meringue. The experience is the ice and strolling around the neighborhood. Across the street, older men play bocce in a small (but great) park where the benches seem made to order for enjoying a lemon ice. Go a few blocks and you can see the rockets of the NY Hall of Science (walk east). Poke your head into local establishments and head home with freshly made mozzarella.
