Ice Cream Shop • $$
“Having the option to pick as many flavors as you want is a nice luxury! Its also nice that you pay based on weight so you just pay proportionally for what you want. For example, yesterday I wasn't feeling "a lot" of ice cream, so poured what I thought I would need, added a topping and paid less than $4“
“We came here a few times in the early Autumn with some friends who we hadn't seen in a while, because they wanted to introduce us to this place, knowing how I'm a big fan of the 1950s and would get a kick out of the awesome decor throughout. As soon as you walk in, you get greeted with memorabilia and even old movies playing on a projector screen. But more importantly, the food. I really enjoyed their chili dogs. Their crinkle fries are better than I'm used to elsewhere, but I still don't love them. Their Pepsi fountain sodas are OK (though they really should upgrade to Coca-Cola products), and their shakes are excellent (I tried the butterscotch shake one time). One thing I did not care for, however, was their malt. I literally did not get any malt flavor in my chocolate shake until quite literally the very end, because it was all caked on the bottom of the cup and not mixed throughout. I know not to get that if we return to that place when they reopen. Weird that an indoors place like this would even close for the winter, that's usually the time of year I'm really craving this kind of food and atmosphere.“
“Stumbled across this hidden gem in Norristown while waiting for the shuttle to the elmwood park zoo. This place has so many options from fresh juices, homemade ice cream, popsicles, ice cream, desserts and lunch options. The service is awesome too , the person helping us offered different samples to see what we would like before purchasing and explained all the ingredients in certain options. The interior is so cute and colorful , definitely feel like your transported to Mexico when you walk inside. The crepe was amazing and light and the mangonada was spicy, sour and sweet. The perfect combination, will definitely be back to try more things !“
“I was in the area visiting from Canada and stumbled upon Handel's ice cream, and the ice cream was incredible. High quality ingredients, great service, and fair prices for the quality of the ice cream. This is what ice cream should be! Skip the gimmicks at the big chains, ignore the grocery store brands, and pick up some amazing ice cream from Handel's. I'll make a point of visiting next time I'm in the area.“
“My husband and I come here all of the time, we love our ice cream!!! This is our favorite ice cream now, I crave it over anywhere else. Their chocolate peanut butter is so good and we love their banana! The ice cream is cold (if you know you know, some ice cream just melts so fast, this is ice cream is nice and frozen) creamy, and thick! I also love ordering online and just picking up when I get there, super convenient!“
“We went during a neighborhood market when it was very busy so I’m sure it was more of a unique overly packed experience. But overall the staff was nice, and this little ice cream shop packs big flavor. Each of the ice cream flavors I tried were all very smooth and creamy with a pop of rich flavor. Very high quality ice cream.“
“The place was absolutely packed on a Friday night. It was surprising to see only 3 ice cream flavors: chocolate, vanilla and a special custom one they made but that's what makes the quality of the ice cream so good. I got a turtle ice cream sundae and it was incredible. The ice cream itself was so creamy and the perfect amount of milky tasting. What stood out was the flavor was a touch more sweet than store bought ice cream, maybe from vanilla extract but not in an overpowering way at all. They also sold various candy, chocolates and candied apples. I took home a turtle apple too, which was also incredible. Green apple was fresh, chocolate covering was decadent and combo of toppings perfect. I have no pictures to share because it was eaten too quickly. Please do yourself a favor and visit!“
“The gelato here is amazing and truly authentic!Vegetarian options: Everything is vegetarianDietary restrictions: All vegetarian, various vegan options, gluten friendly optionsWheelchair accessibility: Entrance and restroom are wheelchair accessible“
“I ordered 50 cake pops for my daughters baby shower on short notice. I do apologize I forget who took my order but she was very friendly and personable and more than happy to help me. I was very happy with my order, I ordered vanilla, chocolate and funfetti cakes pops. They were decorated with the exact colors I asked for, each one wrapped individually and tied with ribbon. I received so many compliments on how cute they were but most of all how delicious.. I want to say thank you so much and when I need cake pops again I will be ordering from Pink Moose.“
“A little disappointed with selection for Easter- chocolate chip, sugar, brownie, lemon, and carrots cake. The only "fun" one was strawberry pretzel. Had a catering flyer and would have taken to keep handy, but no prices in it.But cookies were good - a little chewy and doughy with a little crisp on outside. Clean and modern storefront. Would probably try again.Parking: Pick up spots available right out front.Kid-friendliness: What kiddo doesn't like a good cookie? They have actual cookies baked on display, so you can see the size and offerings for the week.“
“What a nice surprise! We sat at the counter and Justin helped us out. He was great! Very kind and accommodating I try not to eat deep fried food and they made my home fries in the griddle- they were delicious! Thank you! Cute little spot. Definitely worth checking out.“
“Cookies are fresh and made to order always nicely decorated and packaged. The Employees at the Oaks pa location are always nice and very helpful when you can't decide. The location is always easy to get in and out of. Its always nice and clean.“
“I highly recommend this place. Yes it's more expensive then your generic Rita's, but it's worth it to support a local business. Everything tasted fresh. The vanilla soft serve was one of the best that I've had in awhile. The flavors aren't overly sweet which in my mind of a huge plus! I recommend the candy fish flavor but I don't think you can go wrong with any of them.“
“I stumbled across this place when I was doing an engagement shoot nearby but had to hop on a client call. I ordered a peach green tea refresher which was amazing and so much better than Starbucks. The wifi was great and super fast and it was an overall nice environment to work from. I really liked how late they were open. (I went in at 6:30pm) because all other options I could work from were closed.I would drive the distance just to come back for the atmosphere.“
“I wish there were more Friendly’s around us. All around still one of my favorite places to go and I’m 34! My mom used to take us here all the time and it was an all time favorite. I can’t wait to take my kids here and continue the tradition.“
“Everytime I go visit my family in Philly, I have to go to Joe's Water Ice. Since they live pretty close to it, I always walk here and on a hot summer day after sweating and walking to this place, it is always a nice treat to order some delicious shaved ice. I personally love the lemon flavor because its not too sweet or sour. I've had the cherry one, but personally that one is too sweet for my liking. You really gotta come here if you have never been to this place for some water ice! Even during colder seasons, I will always come here and enjoy my lemon ice.“
“The best ice cream in the area! You can tell it's homemade, it's so good! So many great flavors, the best graham cracker ice cream I've ever had. It gets absolutely packed during the summer with a huge line and not a lot of parking but it's just amazing!“
“Who doesn't love Rita's? This location is small, and located in a strip mall. They have 2 windows and move pretty efficiently for a small crew. We have always had a good experience here, even when it's crowded. My favorite might be the gelati and the plain ice. I love the mango, mango strawberry, and peach, with pear a close second to that list“
