The long-standing Fosters Freeze in Livermore will close for good on Sunday as its family owners retire.
Known for its burgers, shakes and soft-serve ice cream, Fosters Freeze has been a mainstay on First Street for generations of residents since it opened in 1955.
“Thank you for your loyalty, your kindness and for making us part of your celebrations, summer nights and after-game treats,” the business posted to social media on Monday. “We are truly sad to say goodbye, but we are so grateful for the community that supported us all these years.”
The Nguyen family has owned and operated Fosters Freeze in Livermore since 1993, said Vy Nguyen, store manager and daughter to the owner, Amy Nguyen. After 33 years of operating the business, her parents are retiring, Vy Nguyen said in an email.
“It was a hard decision, but they have earned their rest, and it is time for our family to move on to the next chapter,” she said.
The closure of the Livermore Fosters Freeze leaves just one Tri-Valley outpost for the company, in Danville.
