Swensen's is a popular destination for traditional ice cream enthusiasts and the first Swensen's in the US, family owned for 75 years. It is a genuine and historical place to visit, a lovely vintage ice cream shop that still makes its ice cream on-site like an old fashioned parlor. The restaurant offers a large menu with a variety of flavors, including super pink peppermint, toasted almond, marble fudge, and spumoni. It offers a few seasonal flavors, like Peach and the limited-edition licorice. Customers can try all the flavors before deciding. The Swiss Orange Chip is a favorite for many fans. The single scoop servings are generous, and the plain cake cones are a delight. The shop has a nostalgic old timey feel, and the ice cream is delicious, with the best sherbet many have ever had. Friendly and efficient service is always provided, and the staff is kind and patient. Parking can be hard to find, so visitors may want to bring a friend. Whether you're seeking a sweet treat or a memorable experience, Swensen's is a great choice and worth the trip.
