A new locally-owned ice cream shop is slated to open in Southwest Austin early next year.

Roll Shack ATX will be located on Hwy. 71 near Shore Raw Bar & Grill. Roll Shack has two locations in Abilene, Texas, and this will be the first Central Texas location. Owner Cody Busbee said he is friends with the original location's owner and wanted to bring Roll Shack to Austin.

The ice cream shop will serve homemade cream-based, dairy-free and vegan rolled ice cream made with locally sourced ingredients, crepes and smoothies.

Busbee said he is hoping to open in late January or early February.
