Steve "The Hair" Harrington and his fellow scooper Robin were nowhere to be seen, but I did see plenty of other "Scoops Ahoy" touches, inspired by "Stranger Things," as I stopped by the pop-up store last week. The wait was long — the line snaked down several blocks, and it appeared to be hours before fans got a chance at buying a U.S.S. Butterscotch — so I just took photos and peered in the windows. But in a way, that was enough to soak in the experience. (Plus, Scoops Ahoy quarts are available at Target — where you don't have to wait hours in line to experience it.)
I know this Baskin-Robbins location well, as it's close to the Blogger Kids' elementary school. But for two weeks, it transformed into Scoops Ahoy, a pivotal location in Season 3 of Netflix's "Stranger Things." Check out some pics below.
Unfortunately, the Scoops Ahoy pop up is now closed. But from what I understand, you can still order a "U.S.S. Butterscotch" (essentially a banana split, with waffle cone pieces shaped like boat sails) at most Baskin-Robbins locations for a limited time.
