Missouri City’s Highway 6 dessert scene is getting a new player. Buzz Treats, a soft-serve ice cream shop, is slated to open in Fairview Plaza, with operators eyeing a Summer 2026 debut. Construction on the space is already underway, and local filings point to a mid-June finish for the buildout, setting up the spot as a quick-stop option for nearby neighborhoods.

According to What Now Houston, a state permit lists Buzz Treats at 6850 Hwy 6, Suite 300 and names Nilu Purohit as the tenant. Purohit confirmed the Missouri City location to the outlet but did not share a menu or firm opening date. The permit also notes that Purohit is working with a partner, Partg Shah, who could not be reached for comment, and it categorizes the concept as an ice cream shop with a focus on soft-serve.

Highway 6 Strip Center Slot

Commercial listings for Fairview Plaza put Suite 300 at roughly 1,050 to 1,060 square feet, which fits the profile of a compact, quick-serve dessert counter rather than a sprawling sit-down parlor. Realmo notes that the center sits at the northwest corner of Hwy 6 and Oilfield/Lake Olympia Parkway and promotes heavy daily vehicle traffic along with ample parking. Those property details line up neatly with the address listed in state permitting records, giving a clear sense of where Buzz Treats will land.

Construction Clock And Menu Mysteries

What Now Houston reports that construction kicked off late in 2025, with the buildout expected to wrap by mid-June 2026. That timeline puts a possible Summer 2026 opening in play if inspections and final touches stay on schedule. The outlet also notes that Buzz Treats does not yet have an official website, and menu details remain thin beyond the permit’s soft-serve label. Until the owners share more, flavor lineups, toppings, and operating hours are still a guessing game.

How Buzz Treats Fits The Local Scene

When it opens, Buzz Treats will be jumping into an already chilly field of frozen-treat options along Hwy 6. A long-running Baskin-Robbins at 8731 Highway 6 is among the established choices in the area, and Baskin-Robbins lists that Missouri City shop on its store locator. In recent years, additional dessert concepts have been eyeing the corridor, with Community Impact tracking the expansion of 16 Handles in the Missouri City area. With steady residential growth and strong traffic counts, Hwy 6 has become a natural testing ground for small, quick-serve dessert spots that can plug into busy daily routines.

For now, Buzz Treats looks like a modest but well-timed addition to that landscape, especially if it can land its soft-serve lineup before the peak summer heat hits. We will keep an eye on permitting records and any announcements from the owners for a locked-in opening date and a first look at the menu.
