“King of Acai Rei do Açaí is a true gem in the world of frozen treats. From the moment you step inside, you are greeted with a smile and a welcoming atmosphere that sets the stage for a delightful experience. The selection of flavors is outstanding, ranging from timeless classics like chocolate and vanilla to unique and creative combinations that push the boundaries of traditional ice cream.“

“We were at a nearby park and decided to stop here for ice cream. My boyfriend got an orange cream water ice/soft vanilla ice cream gelati. Generous portions and so incredibly delicious especially on a hot summer day. I got the donut ice cream sandwich. Donut was alright but the ice cream…the chocolate overload is the best!! If you love all things chocolate, this is the flavor you need to get!! Staff was extremely friendly, patient, and helpful. 10/10 would recommend!“

“Mom's Ice cream shop is a hidden gem within Langhorne Borough. They offer a huge list of hard ice cream flavors along with some delicious soft serve ice cream and a variety of water ice. This business knows how to operate and gets their customers served quickly. Everyone working behind the counter seems pleasant and polite.“

“Has always been the best Ice Cream around. The taste is always consistent.“

“Dairy Queen continues to be one of my favorite go-to spots for both meals and sweet treats. Not only is the food consistently tasty, but the prices are also surprisingly affordable — especially compared to most fast food places these days. You can get a full meal (burger, fries, and drink) for less than what you'd spend at other chains, and the quality is just as good, if not better.

Their burgers are always hot and fresh, and I love the crispy chicken strips — they're flavorful, not overly greasy, and perfectly cooked every time. The portion sizes are generous too, which makes it a great value overall.

Of course, you can't talk about Dairy Queen without mentioning the ice cream. The Blizzards are legendary, with tons of mix-in options and seasonal flavors that keep things fun. The soft serve is creamy and smooth, and their sundaes and cones never disappoint.

The restaurants are clean, the service is fast and friendly, and I always leave satisfied without breaking the bank. Whether you’re craving a quick lunch or a frozen treat, Dairy Queen hits the spot. Highly recommend it for families, budget-conscious diners, or anyone who loves classic comfort food done right!“

“This is my favorite place for frozen treats. The staff is friendly, the place is clean, the atmosphere is delightful whether you get take-out or eat your treats at a table. I'm happy they have not closed for the season and I hope that doesn't change. I missed Peachwave all last winter!“

“This place is GREAT! Old-school feel and menu with amazing Americana food to go with it and a good price point for everything. I had the The Cowboy Burger – Bacon, BBQ sauce & fried onions topped with cheddar/jack cheese blend, Chili Cheese Dog that was down right delicious, onion rings, and fries. If in the area you should really stop by.“

“We don't often go to the S Olden Ave location but we were pleasantly surprised with the top notch service we received tonight. The two young ladies working there tonight were both very pleasant and friendly, seemed generally interested in providing great service and did a delicious job making our sundaes. We've had less then good service at other local Carvel locations. Very glad we tried going there again.“

“great ice cream. Great family run business.“

“Great ice cream and water ice, and a great family owned business! The employees are very kind and patient with children. Definitely a business that I recommend and will continue to support.“

“I truly enjoyed my time there and the clientele, in addition to the great soft Ice Cream and homemade water ices. I love supporting local businesses and ones that are owned by a family as well as a military veteran. I was honored to meet that very person as he happened to stop by! His name is Jimmy and his family name is on the sign! A lively, energetic, boisterous guy, with a huge sense of humor that is contagious! His daughter manages the window and the young people who work there are really nice to deal with. Amazingly good product! I was pleasantly surprised.“

“Great service.“

“*Edited - original review was for a different location, i am so sorry**

Location is great! Staff is friendly and their product is wonderful. Their variety of custard flavors blew me away. Our local location only ever has chocolate and vanilla. High recommended this Ritas!“

“Last Dairy Queen in the area. Great icecream and other cold treats. Very friendly staff who have worked there for years! Hurry up and visit before they close for the winter.

Parking: Large free parking lot.

Kid-friendliness: Kids are always welcome.

Wheelchair accessibility: Roll right up to the window and order.“

“Very good. I come here a lot. The service is great, don’t even get me started on the ice cream, and it just gives off good vibes! Every time I come in to this shop, I always see someone walking away with a smile on their face. My only recommendation would be that it would be great if there were more soft serve flavors.“

“I had the Reese’s Peanut Butter Mudslide, and it was good

The two girls at the counter in the evening of the Fourth of July were very nice and friendly

Four stars instead of 5 only because it was more expensive than I anticipated it would be – for about the same price, it feels like Coldstone provides a little more ice cream“

“This Rita’s is one of my favorite spots for a treat. Quality and service is terrific. However, there is a huge amount of bees by the trash cans, so while you are walking from your car to the store there are bees and wasps chasing you and even more after you order because you are holding sugar. Personally, I will not go there anymore because of my very bad bee phobia. I understand that little can be done about this, but I think spraying a bee killer spray in the trash cans regularly and also keeping them covered instead of open will make a huge difference. Hope no one gets stung over there. 🐝🐝🐝🐝“

“My daughter & I go there quite often. Service is always good ?. Janiyah is always so very pleasant & sweet with a great personality & smile.
I absolutely ? LOVE the banana ? ice cream in a waffle cone. Prices are very reasonable also.
Highly recommended ? ? ?“

“I’ve been going to. Bruster’s shops for almost 20 years between Florida and now Trevose and the flavors never disappoint! Creamy and delicious homemade ice cream and yummy cakes if you so choose. There’s a flavor for everyone but my favorite is Espresso Yourself, Graham Central Station, New York Cheesecake, and the classic Cookies and Cream. You really can’t go wrong with any of them! The handmade in store waffle cones are to die for! Treat yourself to a tasty treat!“

“I ordered a smoothie today from this location. The manager, Peter, was very clean. He changed his gloves a few times within my order and another person's order. Peter, spoke well English and I was able to communicate with him well. He was very honest when I gave him too much money during my transaction. I would definitely go back to this location again in the future.“

“I've always loved Rita's! my daughter got to finally enjoy a piece of heaven from my childhood. Family of 7. 4 of them experienced Rita's for the first time ever. We make it our mission to go twice before we leave.“

“No matter when or what time of the day I stopped there everyone was pleasant and had the best customer service skills. If they didn’t have what I wanted which was rare Bryan would make it for me in minutes. So sad today there done. Have a safe winter see you all in the spring. Ps other Rita’s are open for a lil longer but other Rita’s definitely don’t taste like Bryan’s Rita’s.“

“Amazing customer service along with delicious froyo! I thought I left my bag at the outdoor benches next to the store and the manager, Lauren, checked the cameras and said I indeed did leave with my bag. It was such a relief that I didn’t lose it and I ended up tracking down my bag after that. Thanks so much for your help!“

“Great place but had to wait too long to be served. Poor service“

“Always a good day for Nellie Bly's ice cream! It's a complete ice cream parlor experience!“

“I want to give a huge shout-out to Liz for her kindness and helpfulness when I had concerns about gluten-free products for my daughter. She took the time to answer all my questions and made me feel at ease. Thank you, Liz, for your support—it really means a lot!“

“Such fun and unique ice cream shop!“

“Very nice staff and the ice was great!!!“

“We Love this place!! delicious ice cream and friendly service.“

“This place was a quick stop to eat going back home now im from new york i drive 2 hours to come down here to ride the Pine barrens trails with a group of friends. The old fashioned atmosphere is what attracted me looks like 60s 70s 80s that time period I like history so was calling my attention the cheese burger and fries were so good recommend them. Next time ill go ill try something else including ice cream I bet its going to be very good. I gave it 4 stars cause it has no rest room just a porta potty and no card accepted.“

“Great food great service clean eat here twice a week“

“Best water ice ever & the service is even better I love ❤️ them like family“

“Last Sunday morning and arrived 2 hours too early, as they open at 12....This is my post yoga ritual when I travel home to Philly...The owner had come to retrieve something from the store and I explained that I grew up in the area, but lived in SC now...Told him my fav was chocolate and that in SC, we don't get all the flavors... He unexpectedly came out with a cup of chocolate water ice.. Thank you..It was awesome! Will be back whenever I get to visit home..and appreciate your hospitality!!“
