OUR STORY

Our founders, Shawn and Allison Sweeney in 2019 saw an opportunity to bring to Newcastle a place to celebrate  and treat yourself – but in a unique way.  Allison bringing her retail experience from Nordstrom and Shawn with his experience as a global leader at Starbucks wanted to make something truly memorable.  Surviving COVID as a restaurant and cafe was a challenge, but the Frosty Barrel endured and continues to serve creativity, connection, and smiles.
