About this audio guide
This guide to Bobbie's Dairy Dip, a nineteen-fifties soft-serve stand in Nashville's Sylvan Park neighborhood, follows how a Charlotte Avenue dairy bar survived a name change and decades of turnover while regulars kept coming back generation after generation. It also traces an unlikely visit from an independent film crew in the nineteen nineties, and what their cameras found waiting at the picnic tables out front. Listen for the manager's own line about what keeps people walking through that door.
