New Owners Of EHT, NJ Ice Cream Shop Won’t Change A Thing

What a smart approach. To actually give the customers what they want in Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey.

Meet Colleen & Pete Bretones

Don Hurley caught-up with the new Little’s Dairy Bar owners, located on Zion Road in Egg Harbor Township, New Jersey.

The Bretones took over ownership in April, 2026. Their attention to detail has been impressive and this popular, long-standing ice cream store looks immaculate.

Don Asked Colleen Bretones …

“Do you intend to make any changes”?

Colleen Bretones said, We have changed nothing. We are keeping things exactly as our clients want it. We want Little's to be exactly as you remember it, said Bretones.

The New Owners of Tony’s Baltimore Grill Did The Same, Smart Thing

I'm a huge fan of the owners, Ronald Nolan Aspell and his wife Julie. They do things the right way. And, they were so smart to let Tony's be Tony's!

It's theirs. They could have taken over and proceeded to break Tony's Baltimore Grill. They didn't.

PS: Here is my perfectly prepared Tony’s Baltimore Grill sausage pizza from yesterday (see below).

Colleen and Dave Kelly are doing the same, smart thing at Little’s Dairy Bar. They’ve resisted the temptation to change it.
