Painesville, Ohio

Hot Dogs & Frozen Custard

done the old-fashioned way

All-beef dogs, quarter-pound burgers, Chicago-style Italian beef, creamy frozen custard and Perry’s hand-dipped ice cream — served from a real brick roadside stand with sunshine, yellow umbrellas and picnic tables.


Open today — Mon–Sun 12–10 PM
Welcome to the stand

A real-deal roadside stop on South State Street

Zapps Custard & Mustard is Painesville’s spot for a quick bite and a cold treat — the kind of place where you order at the stand, grab a picnic table under a yellow umbrella, and take your time with a dipped cone.

On the savory side we run all-beef hot dogs, quarter-pound burgers, Chicago Italian beef with giardiniera, meatball subs and Zapper fries. On the sweet side: soft-serve frozen custard, Dole Soft Serve, hand-dipped Perry’s ice cream, shakes, sundaes and our signature Zappers.

Simple food, done fresh, served fast — with plenty of outdoor seating for the whole crew.
