Anthony is a very kind and friendly man. We had our little issues with schedules prior but I’m not uptight about that stuff. Life’s too short! At the event…perfection!!“

I’ve been eating this food for 55 years and it’s exactly the same way It was in the seventies .Inexpensive menu compared to other fast food places and always hot when you get it.Large ice cream menu, excellent milk shakes. Over all very good ingredients, great people.A walk back in time that you will enjoy.“

“Staff was great! Stopped in for my cookies and this KAREN was being sooo mean to the kids. Like she was demanding something for free, had something to do with allergies. It was actual very sad. She stepped out of the store and jumped into her pretty pricey looking Denali. Clearly she’s entitled and has money. There’s ways to treat staff and that’s just not it nor okay.“

“sugar free options !!! who knew ? lots of fun crazy flavors and toppings . hit the spot on a hot day 🙂“

“I’ve been wanting to leave a review for Emily’s Ice Cream. Their homemade hard ice cream is creamy and I’ve tried so many yummy flavors. I’ve learned to call ahead if I’m craving something specific bc they rotate their flavors, but they always have something I enjoy. I rather have fresh ice cream constantly being made and have to request a favorite than have every flavor sitting in a freezer for months. What made me finally leave a review today was actually due to their soft serve. They have recently bought a new machine that has the lightest creamiest soft serve. I was not expecting the change when I ordered. Emily’s has always been known for their soft serve vanilla flavor, but nothing tops it now.“

“I just wanted to take a moment to recognize the young staff working tonight at the Rita’s Italian Ice in Nazareth around 8 PM.

The lines were very long, orders were constant, and the warmer weather was clearly making things even more difficult with the ice and custard melting so quickly. Despite the pressure, the young employees were doing the best they could to keep up.

Unfortunately, I noticed some customers giving them a hard time when mistakes happened. In my opinion, that wasn’t fair. These are very young workers who were clearly trying their best in a really challenging situation, especially during one of the first warm evenings of the season.

They seemed overwhelmed and could definitely use more support during busy times like this. Still, they continued working hard and staying polite with customers.

I just wanted to make sure whoever manages the Nazareth Rita’s knows that the kids working tonight were doing an incredible job on what seemed like an impossible night. They deserve recognition for their effort and professionalism.“

“The one place I always looked forward to being open for the season. Love the food and the sweet treats. Always had the best customer service around. Even when it’s closed for the season I am always craving the canalside cup. Always a good experience and experience and will always be recommended by me to others.“

“My husband absolutely loves their soft ice cream. He says it's like it was when he was a kid. He gets enough for a week every Saturday. I personally Love the hard ice cream flavors. They have alot and they change them up so there's always something new to try. We can walk to them right from our house. Go .... you won't regret it.“

“please bring back $5 fill it up Wednesdays! we used to come in often on Wednesdays since we're a bigger family. but sadly we came in tonight to learn that the new ownership no longer does this promotion.“

“Ice cream is delicious. Small, medium and large servings are plentiful. They also come up with some delicious ice cream concoctions that you dont get other places. All the staff is friendly and polite. They also have a rewards system that provides you discounts based on your purchases. Highly recommend stopping in for some ice cream.“

“Our Girl Scout event was a huge hit and Jim was so kind and covered costs for our local Girl Scouts to get Italian ices. We will definitely be back! Thank you!“

“This Rita's is great. I've never had any issues at this location and I used to work next door. I'm mainly reviewing to offset the guy who doesn't seem to understand that 3 Quarts is less than 1 Gallon. And he wanted 2 gallons.“

“Creamy, delicious ice cream on a real working farm with plenty for family to see and do during their visit. The best flavor is lemon, but we tried a bit of the Oreo, as well as mint, raspberry, and peanut butter. They are all high quality and fresh tasting.“

“Epic ice cream, jams and Jersey fresh corn! I’ll be back!“

“Haven't been back since I was a child who grew up in Belfast. I was very impressed with the changes! Brought our grandson and we really enjoyed the golf. Food was great as was the wait staff!!! Will definitely return.“

“fresh, creative, amazing employees!!! thank you so much“

“got a cheesesteak and egg sandwich on a kaiser (hard roll) and my mom got bacon, egg and cheese on a kaiser. the rolls are great. extremely soft with a sesame seed dusting. forgot to take pictures. inexpensive. other awesome goods such as jarred pickles.“

“We were visiting the Crayola experience and the cafe was closed so we ventured next door. We are very happy we did because the food was quite good. Obviously it's going to be a little pricier because if its location, but we would have paid the same, if not more, inside of Crayola. The portions were generous and the quesadilla, burger, hot dog, and pb&j were all delicious. We did not have any frozen yogurt or play in the playhouse so I can't comment on those.“
