GUERNSEY DAIRY

Northville, MI

Revamp and modernizing of a local classic

The 28,000-square-foot space is a complete remodel of its prior restaurant and scoop shop. The dine-in restaurant occupies the south portion of the building, while customers just looking for a cone of Moose Tracks or Mackinac Island Fudge can head to the northern part of the building and order a scoop. There, it can be enjoyed at some bar seating, reminiscent of what used to be in that space back in the 1970s before it was removed during the last remodel.

The renovations marked the 80th anniversary of Guernsey Farms Dairy, which began in 1940 in Northville before moving to Novi in the 1960s.
