“Such a cute spot, wonderful ice cream and terrific staff: Mady and Dylan helped us out and couldn’t have been sweeter! Plus we had a tough time deciding on flavors, so Mady gave us detailed descriptions of so many options. We will definitely be back!“

“When my family and I come to Wind Creek we always stop by Sweet Revenge to get our sweet tooth fix! We love the chocolate chip cookies, brownies and most recently their mint chocolate chip ice cream! The place is clean, beautifully decorated and bright. There are tables and chairs to sit and relax in. More importantly however is the staff - they are warm, friendly and very helpful! I highly recommend this amazing dessert shop!“

“They have the best ice cream and shakes. They are a little expensive but well worth it. We've gone there for years and are regulars. Tonight was kind of shocking. We got a bunch of take out and 1/2 gallon of peanut butter Fresh banana ice cream. We got home and it was freezer burned. We gave them a call and they said, " thanks for letting us know" so in the garbage it went. I don't really understand how that's possible because everything is fresh. Of course we'll still go but won't be buying anything to bring home again.“

“Hometown is me and my families happy place! I literally do not enjoy other ice cream because nothing comes close to comparing to what Hometown creates! We go twice a week sometimes more in the spring and summer and at least once a week during the winter. We love the staff and the small town feel. It is the best place around and our go to- always!“

“Always loved their ice cream. It's so good. Many styles to choose from . Shakes , hard ice cream and soft, ice cream sundaes. Etc. I had the best cone ever too. With chocolate covering it and sprinkles and chose 2 different hard ice creams for it. Moosetracks and Cookie dough. With chocolate syrup and sprinkles. It was delicious. Highly recommend them. Especially for their great choices and yummy ice cream. It's a great place to stop at in any day for a good cold yummy snack. Try it out sometime. You'd enjoy it.“

“My hubby and I decided to take our family for ice cream, (4 adults and 4 grandbabies) after our visit to the Philly Zoo. The associates working there today (7/29/24 @ 4:45pm) were absolutely wonderful. They were patient and kind, took everyone's order perfectly. We would definitely recommend to everyone and my family will be repeat customers. Thank you.“

“We visited last Sunday, my first time back in over 20 years. It was just how I remembered it - good portions, cozy environment, fantastic dessert. Service was quick and friendly. Overall, this is a great little hometown place! It won’t be another 20+ years until I’m back - the cherry vanilla ice cream is calling my name!“

“So cool bus was such a hit at my daughters 3rd birthday party! They were so good with my daughter and she loved taking orders from her friends and they had a great selection! Reasonably priced as well! Would for sure use them again!“

“This ice cream shop is amazing! They have so many delicious and unique flavors—it was hard to choose just one lol. Big shoutout to Frank, who was sooo sweet and friendly. He took the time to chat with me and helped me pick the perfect flavor. Great service, great vibes, and seriously great ice cream. Strongly recommended!“

“Fresh ingredients and great customer service. Will be back!“

“This Rita’s is hands-down the best in the area. Open year-round, it’s a go-to spot no matter the season. There’s indoor seating for chillier days and an awesome outdoor area with shaded tables—perfect for enjoying a treat in the sun.

The flavored custard options are fantastic (seriously, try them!), and there’s always plenty of parking—so convenient. I’ve never had to wait in a long line, which is a huge plus when you’ve got eager kids in tow. The staff are also awesome with kids, they're always willing to add sprinkles to my kid’s water ice—even though it’s not the norm.“

“Great variety of flavor choices, Sugar free and GF too. Flavors rotate frequently to match the season!“

“Simply the Best!! Highly recommended!!“

“Delicious waffles and a creative menu! Space was cozy and bright. Staff was so friendly. Will definitely be back“

“Thank you to whoever read flavors to my kid calling to ask . You are a saint, as my kids are not great on the phone !“

“As soon as I walked in the workers greeted me. I made my order when it was done they called my name and showed me the product before closing the box. They are so friendly. The facility is well kept and cleaned. They moved the service right along. Very little wait time..“

“Busy night but the staff was efficient but fast and really nice. :)“

“this is a great place. Awesome food very friendly staff. The staff makes you feel like at home great bartenders mark is the best, overall a great experience. Plus, they also have an outdoor garden, which is awesome in the spring and summer months to sit outside.“

“They have the best milkshakes I had ever had and plus my husband loved his banana split and my friend and my brother loved their ice cream I’m giving this place 100 percent for their ice creams.“

“Poke Kai is a fantastic place for Bubble Tea. They have a huge variety at reasonable prices. The staff is absolutely great!! If you never tried Bubble Tea, stop by Poke Kai. I am sure after trying it once, you’ll be a frequent customer.“

“I have been passing by this place for the past 13 years. We are from NY and always miss having a good breakfast or lunch sandwiches. Today my wife got a breakfast sandwich and then I came back later for lunch. All I can say is I finally found a real deli in my area. We are so happy that we finally tried Dave’s and will now be back again on a regular basis.“

“Great food!!!“

“WORTH THE WAIT AND MONEY!“

“It’s nice to be able to still live in an area that has a location! It’s clear that management works their tails off to ensure the restaurant is still in operation with excellent food safety and customer service practices. Despite this, I hadn’t been in a while but since I was at the Velodrome, I decided to stop and get a Sundae. I felt like a kid all over again. The Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Sundae is every bit as good as I remembered. The peanut butter sauce is fantastic. I wish they sold in jars but if they did there would be no reason to go to Friendly’s so I get why they don’t. It was also great to get it for free for being a rewards member.“

“10/10. super clean and amazing selection of goodies! I join my aunt just for the trip to this place. (I'm that weirdo.)“

“It is a quality delicious ice cream, an environment is quite cozy. The staff are friendly and attentive, especially the girl in the counter, Genesis. I’ll come more often because of her service. The Carvelanche tasted very good and the Sundae Dashers, really good. Especially Strawberry Shortcake, It’s my favorite.“

“We had a great afternoon at Rolling Hills! We started with the batting cages, played a round of mini golf, and finished up with ice cream. Very friendly and helpful staff.“

“always clean, helpful and friendly. plus, great flavors“
