Leopold's Ice Cream is an ice cream parlor located in Savannah, Georgia, United States. It was founded in 1919 by two Greek-immigrant brothers,[1] George and Peter Leopold,[2] who had moved to Savannah from Brazil, Indiana,[3] to be near their sister, Demetra, who had married Savannah local George Paul Carellas.[3][4] The business was closed by current co-owner Stratton Leopold in 1969. During the ensuing years, Leopold’s ice cream tradition was carried on by Peter and George's younger brother, Basil, who had also emigrated from Greece. The location was at Medical Arts Shopping Center in Savannah.
