The Parlour, a Jackson institution, is back in business

Scott Pohl

It’s been a gloomy winter for ice cream lovers in Jackson. An iconic ice cream emporium called The Parlour closed down in December, after roughly a century of satisfying the city’s sweet tooth.

With spring approaching, though, The Parlour is back under new ownership.
 

WKAR’s Scott Pohl visited iconic ice cream shop on its first day back in operation last week.
