Johnson's Real Ice Cream

The doors of Johnson’s Real Ice Cream of Bexley, Ohio were first opened by Robert N. Johnson and his son-in-law James Wilcoxon Sr. on September 1, 1950. Together they developed the ice cream and built the building for the business that has become the oldest and most complete ice cream shop in Columbus. For the past 45 years, Jim Wilcoxon Jr. has actively run the company as the 3rd generation and today, Matt Wilcoxon operates the family business as the 4th generation.
