“A Genuine Surprise Stop on Our Way Back From NYC

We were on our way home from NYC, planning to wash the car before calling it a day, when we drove past Pennsville Custard Stand. Right before it, we passed what can only be described as a crack den (a rundown motel with a few guys doing the crack dance), and honestly, we didn’t expect much more down the road.

Then suddenly, we see this beautiful little hole-in-the-wall shack that completely caught us off guard. Not only were the prices super reasonable, but the service was lightning fast — in and out like that.

It was clearly a regular local spot too. We saw a dad just casually enjoying his custard outside his truck, like this was his go-to ritual, while my wife and I enjoyed ours. It had this wholesome, small-town vibe that made the whole stop feel unexpectedly special.

If you’re ever passing through, don’t sleep on this place. Absolute gem.“

“Very popular ice cream joint famous for their water ice especially. They have unique flavors of water ice such as sweetish fish, peach, dragonfruit, pear, blue raspberry, tangerine, cotton candy, and more. The really unique ones such as dragonfruit and pear come and go, they don’t stay permanently like the cherry and blue raspberry kinds so keep that in mind if you ever go and don’t see it on their menu“

We ordered reg and a large shake got two reg, charged for one of each, neither of which were filled to the top of the cups. I hope they are not slipping into just another ice cream place.“

“This place is amazing! Our family avoids food dyes and limits HFCS but my kids really wanted water ice. Fuscos to the rescue! My kids LOVED it and we took a pint of apple cider donut ice cream to go.“

“Very creative customize your own froyo shop. You can fill up your cup with whatever flavor(s) you desire and then pick your own toppings from the toppings bar and they include various fun toppings such as gummy bears, cookie dough, brownie bits, boba pearls, lego candy, cereals, and more. They also offer chocolate sauce, caramel sauce, pb sauce, and marshmallow sauce. Very fun and kid friendly inside with colorful chairs and booths. It’s refreshing to see a fun place geared towards children“

“Looked at a few Rita’s for Schwarberry flavor. The team at Eddystone Rita’s went above and being to get the flavor in stock. They even texted me to let me know it was made and ready to be picked up. They could have easily said ‘No, don’t have it!’. They promised me they would get what they needed to make it and did not disappoint. They made myself and my Phillies loving mother very happy! The staff are so friendly and personable! Thanks Rita’s!!!“

“My wife and I finally were able to try out this quaint charmer. We ordered French toast and an omelet plus coffee. Everything about this place was inviting. Live music good food and ambiance has that cafe feel. Definitely coming back to try more of the menu.“

“Very extensive water ice and ice cream menu, offering a variety of flavors for everything. They also offer foods such as corn dogs, churros, funnel cakes, and more. Very good place to go in the Summertime“

“I’d only seen a froyo shop on television so it was a nice experience in person. It was yummy frozen yogurt and exactly what I expected. However, it was a bit pricey since the bowl is sold by weight. I paid 10 for a medium bowl. I think I’ll stick to a regular frozen ice cream cone for $2.50.🤣 it’s the kind of thing you do when you’re on holiday so now I understand why we don’t have one back home.“

“Service is really good, arrived and a kind young gentleman (I wonder if he was the manager, wish I could have gotten his name) was ready to help us out. Cake was delicious, you made my daughter’s bd a success, thank you so much for the coffee and the donut as well!“

“I absolutely love eating here! Their steakburgers are always cooked to order and have that perfect crispy edge, and the shoestring fries are arguably the best around. You definitely can't leave without getting some of their frozen custard—it’s incredibly rich and creamy. The atmosphere has such a fun, nostalgic vibe, and the staff are always super friendly and quick. It’s a consistently delicious experience every single time.“

“Went to this DQ with my mom and dad in the 60s and 70s. We always sat on the side seating areas. Left the area in the 80s but returned to this location in early 90s with my daughter. A great experience. Looking forward to visiting next year!“

“Wanted to try a local spot near where I work and Andy's Pizza stepped up and didnt disappoint. I ordered 2 cheesesteaks fried onions and those cheesesteaks were amazing the girl that took my order hooked it up with fires as well that was an unexpected and amazing surprise. Definitely recommend Andy's Pizza and would order from there again and again.“

“Sophie was our counter person and she was nice and got us our four gelati very quickly. New flavors like mermaid and unicorn sprinkles were enjoyed by my family but I stuck with mango and cherry with custard twist. I was a little shocked at $6.25 for a small but then what hasn't gone up? No seating but also no trash can which was strange. I guess they want you to take your garbage with you!“

“Rita’s is the local Water Ice chain (you may call it Italian Ice) that also serves ice cream, custard, milkshakes, and more.

A small is always enough for me, and often too much. Every Rita’s gives free water ice on the first day of spring.“
