Phyllis & George Murray (aka Mimi & Papa) are the proud owners of Mimi & Papa’s Gourmet Popcorn and Homemade Ice Cream.
It is the first locally-owned and operated gourmet popcorn and homemade ice cream shop serving Leland, NC and the surrounding areas!
George & Phyllis grew up in Wilmington and have lived in Leland for almost 20 years. Phyllis recently retired from a 27+ year career with Winslett & Walls (Marshall Dental) and George previously owned Murray Art & Frame as well as Murray Signs & Graphics, both in Leland, NC. They have talked about opening an ice cream shop here for so many years and are excited to finally make it happen!
