+ Ice cream shop Scoops Café relocates, gives back
Scoops Café, formerly at 227A St. Joe Plaza, has reopened in the old U-Need-A-Bagel storefront, at 1475 Palm Coast Parkway, Unit 102.

Scoops’ fully renovated new digs are larger — 1,250 total square feet, including kitchen — allowing the shop to add pastries and other baked goods to its menu in the future. Now, it sells bagels and ice cream.

Scoops has been around for about 15 years, but under the ownership of the Tsistinas family for 1.5 years.

The shop hosts monthly fundraising promotions for the Imagine School — which the Tsistinas’ two children attend — with plans for weekly fundraisers for other Flagler schools in the works, as well.

Scoops is on the Indian Trails Mustang Card.
