Fern Coffee Shop is continuing old tradition

In 1907, the Candy Kitchen Coffee Shop was opened in Ben Lomond where people would gather and discuss the latest gossip over coffee and donuts. The shop changed hands and became THE FERN and tradition continued. The Fern became part of the grocery store that would become the Ben Lomond Super. Now The Fern is back as a coffee shop-ice cream shop which is carrying on the tradition of good food and gossip.
