50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Havertown

“The best ice cream shop in our area hands down. Very nice portions, and the waffle cones are tasty.
The cookies are very solid as well (except perhaps the blended one).
Closed for the season during the winter, but we visit often when it is open.“

“I ordered an ice cream cake for a family birthday gathering this past Sunday. This was without a doubt the best ice cream cake I have ever tasted/served. Never have I seen almost every guest request seconds. Even the kids were begging for more! Ordering on line was a breeze, with many more options than I imagined. The cake was beautiful and professionally decorated. Above all, from the online order to licking the last bit of icing off the plate, I was kept informed about how to keep it at the appropriate serving temperature (it has been very warm lately), when the cake could be picked up, etc. by text messages. What a pleasant experience. Recommending this to all my local friends and neighbors. What a treat!“

“We enjoyed it. Way better than the one on Haverford Road.“

“2nd time me and my wife came to this jawn, and the pretzels are fresh every time. Honestly, everything is fresh. My two favorites right now are the banana pudding milkshake and the pepperoni pizza pretzel and then the blueberry jawn my wife favorite. Best part about this jawn they had turkey pepperoni for the pizza pretzels.The service is definitely a 10/10 too. They was very professional, nice, and respectful first and 2nd visit. They take cash or card, and the wait never be extreme usually under 5 minutes or faster But I definitely recommend this jawn.“

“I gave 5 stars because of the alone hardworking girl. Please can you schedule someone else to help her. She is doing a great job but there is always line.
Nice flavors nice location very close to smart kids at UPenn but again always line of people.
PS. I got the fall flavors : hazelnut & pumpkin. 🎃“

“So freakin' good! From the cheesy curly fries, to the delicious funnel cake, to the tasty milkshake topped with the best whipped cream. Yummm!“

“Came here with my date for water ice and honestly loved it. Great flavors, great atmosphere, and the owner was really genuine and friendly. It’s always nice supporting a place where the customer service matches the quality of the food. We’ll definitely be back.“

“Absolutely delicious locally homemade ice cream. Great addition to the neighborhood, but also a destination worth traveling to!“

“Amazingggg ice cream and huge portions!!“

“Great service, lots of variety - and not just the flavors: ice cream, cookie desserts, pretzels, and more. This isn't your ordinary water ice spot. They can even bring a water ice cart to your events! A convenient and memorable part of Springfield's past and its future. Right on the town's main strip.“

“You will not be disappointed!! This was our first time coming here, and this place has it all from filling appetizers to delicious sweet treats. The inside is beautifully decorated, very neat, and super clean. The atmosphere was welcoming, the food was fresh and flavorful, and everything we tried was amazing. We got the asada fries and the chicharrón preparado, and both the presentation and portions were great. Definitely a spot we’ll be coming back to again!“

“We hired the Ice Cream and Water Ice truck for my Daughter’s graduation party and it was amazing. The communication, service, Ice cream and water ice were all great. Our guests all loved the products especially the strawberry and Salted Carmel ice creams. I 100% recommend this to anyone having a party.“

“I came here while visiting Philly and it is such a good find! They have such fun ice cream flavors and it’s constantly changing. I had lemon crème ice cream which had lemon bar pieces in it and it was so unique and delicious. Will be coming back when I’m in town again.“

“Such fun for these kiddos!“

“Delicious ice-cream with some classic and some unique seasonal flavors (like lavender)!“

“Best ice cream around and new flavors are great“

“I love Zsa's and I have to exercise self control every time I pass. It's a local gem and sooooo yummy. The brown butter pecan is my absolute favorite but I haven't found any flavors that I didn't like. I love that they have vegan and gluten free options (including cones). Service is usually quick even when the line stretches past the building. So glad a new owner was able to take over and it didn't have to close... and that they brought in some new flavors. The matcha, Thai tea and mango sticky rice all slapped 🤤 I can't wait to see what else they come up with!“

“Delicious! Great service right to your door!“

“Excellent portions! And old fashioned ice cream sundaes and floats!“

“I'm obsessed w/Malai's flavors particularly the Masala Chai and Sweet Roti. But for the love of God, please invest in a paper covering for all pints.“

“So good! 3 flavors in a regular water ice cup“

“Our go-to spot - best ice cream in (and really anywhere near) Ardmore. The espresso is delicious too, and if you combine the 2 in one of their Affogatos...even better. All of their specialties and one-off flavors are spot on, and the customer service is great. Thanks, Lu & Aug's!“

“. I love the unique flavors, and the amount of variety there is. They are all different and delicious in their own ways. My personal favorite is the brambleberry crisp! The only reason I’d give it a 4 instead of a 5 for the store itself is that the ice cream shop is on the much pricier side, and their pints are the same price as their 2-3 scoop options. I now opt to buy them by the pint.

. Everyone here is always so upbeat and friendly. They let you try as many flavors as you want which is so nice, and they are so patient and quick as you try a bunch!

It is very bright and vibey in here! There are standing counters you can eat at and it is overall nice.

Highly recommend this spot if you are around the area! A unique and delicious ice cream shop, just keep in mind that it is on the pricier side.“

“VERY GOOD SERVICE THE WORKERS ARE SO NICE AND FRIENDLY“

“What a fun place! Delicious ice cream (dairy free options are what I get!) and interesting candies and stickers. The employees are always super friendly and fun to chat with!“

“The water ice was phenomenal“

“Mango and custard so delicious combo. Ridiculously good!!!“

“I've been waiting on this location to open up and boy was it worth the wait!!! Dre's has the BEST water ice and ice cream in Philly... and if your looking for gourmet ice cream try the sweet potato pie or banana pudding flavor they are to die for I noticed it at the retail location but it can also be found at all Browns Family Shop-rite stores.“

“Cool refreshments, nice people!!“

“First time here. Icebox Frozen Treats is really good. Water ice, pizza pretzel, sausages, ice cream all taste great! The prices are affordable with a variety of treats on the menu as well as specials. The customer service is top notch & you can sit inside & enjoy the A/C on a hot day. Also, they have Connect 4 & building blocks at each table for the kiddos. Highly recommend 💯“

“I have only try four different flavors and they’re delicious 😋 next time I may have to order a bigger size 🥰“

“My husband and I heard so much about this place so we decided to give it a try. We both got turkey hoagies one honey and one gourmet. The hoagies were amazing but we brought 2 slices of cake one strawberry and one carrot. the cake was disappointing they had a good flavor but was very dry. However I will be back to try the chicken Caesar hoagie.“

“being born & raised in philly this is the best water ice and pretzel combo out there, family run operation 5 star A + rating“

“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“

“This bakery never disappoints! Both of my girls loved your Gryffindor cupcakes at Harry Potter days in the early 2000s. You made a gorgeous celestial cake for my oldest during the pandemic and, most recently, a beautiful and delicious 25th birthday cake with the F1 theme she asked for. Thank you for such consistent quality over the years! ❤️“

“they have the best yogurt in town“

“We love surreal and miss it now that it moved away from our area. No other ice cream place has the unique flavors and combinations of Surreal. The Earl grey Vietnamese coffee or the Matcha and Tarro flavors are the best.“

“Everyone was extremely nice, the service was attentive and quick. The space itself was very cozy and despite being loud from all of the other people, the acoustics of the room made it so you could hear the other people at your table just fine.

The food and drinks were amazing. The gelato was really impressive. And our server Alex, who helped me decide half of what I got, made it unforgettable. Will definitely be back whenever I'm in Philly.“

“I’ve come here a few times and have had pleasant experiences all the times I’ve come here. The last time I came here I got a turtle sundae and my friend got the black and white milkshake and they were both really good, highly recommend. Would come back again.“

“best sorbet around. and the berries and toppings are outstanding.“

“Very good ice cream store! it's my favorite,and the ice cream is really good! I love this place and I feel like it should get more people.And just to tell ya,the people speak Spanish and English which is great for my family! So,I give this a 5/5!! ♡“

“I went inside Rita’s today with my mom. The shop was small and cute. I told one of the workers that I applied for the job as a part time team member. They said that they will look at applicants next week. Anyways, I ordered a cotton candy Italian ice and it was delicious. I would recommend going there. 😄“
