“I love Rita's italian ice ever since I was a kid. This location, in particular, is special. I take my boys here after they get haircuts. The person behind the counter is kind and very welcoming when we come in, and they always remember my boys. I would highly recommend this location.“

“I have been a Dairy Queen fan for probably 40+ years of my life. Started out as an occasional treat for my husband and I when we were first married in Hagerstown, MD. Over the years we’ve moved around with his job, and we’ve ended up retiring here in Mechanicsburg. We’ve been going to the Simpson St. Dairy Queen for over 24 years and I have to tell you, the people who work there are like family to us, especially to me since I am usually the customer. They are always ready to serve you with a smile and a kind word, even when they are BUSY! I have three grown daughters who all live far away and I miss them, but the girls here are like daughters to me. Today, on the day before Mother’s Day, when I was feeling a little down because I couldn’t be with my own daughters, I was given a special treat that MADE MY DAY! In a world where we are struggling with a virus, and we read of so much suffering, it is a blessing to know that there are loving people who care for others that they only know from serving them! If you’ve never been here you need to go, not only for the delicious ice cream, but for the family-friendly atmosphere and service! Wendy R.“

“They are very good but the price is very expensive. I bought that box of 4 cookies and they were like $25 dollars. I chose one of Chocolate and chips, Waffle with syrup my favorite, chocolate with strawberries and Lemon. I thought I wouldn't like the lemon cookie but it was really delicious. They are quite big!“

“It’s great and has good frozen yogurt 🍦“

“We love coming here so much! Amy is an absolutely wonderful person, who has created not only a wonderful business, but a place that enriches her community, by connecting others to where their food comes from! Thank you for all that you do!“

“Just LOVE this place. They offer DF ice cream which is a great option for some of our family members. I Highly recommend the chocolate raspberry truffle. It is beyond Delicious! Check this place out

Vegetarian options: Vegan ice cream flavors vary by day.“

“Excellent! They have the best custard known to man! And their variety of Italian ice flavors are wonderful! Still have many of the original flavors we've grown to love plus many other mixes of custard, Italian ice, frappes, lemonade, and more. It's been my favorite gelati joint for over 10 years.

Parking: There are about 5 parking spots in front of the shop, however in the summertime they are always full. In the Lemoyne location, there is a Dollar General next door that allow customers to park and walk a few feet to the shop.

Kid-friendliness: There are a few picnic benches where many families sit with children and doggies too!

Wheelchair accessibility: It's all one level so yes it is wheelchair accessible.“

“I would like to personally write a review on Evan, one of the best employees I have ever had the pleasure of being served by. Evan is a spectacular worker and is always so friendly. He cracks me and my husband up always! He has a positive attitude and he is a hard worker. We always enjoy getting some ice cream during shopping and he makes the experience ever so much better. Fantastic job, DQ! Love it and love the employees“

“Whistle Stop on Wheels provided ice-cream at The Journey's Back to School Block party that catered to 750-1,000 people! They were a hit! I highly recommend them for any event small or large. Great selection of ice cream, great prices, and a great business owners/staff. Highly recommend!“

“There is a big problem here... Every time I go, I keep getting the same thing because it is so good. Yes, everyone else gets other items and other flavors and and I get other food sometimes, but the ube brownie ice cream is the REASON I go.

Their sandwiches are fantastic, their customer service is just as good. And yes, dessert at any point of the day is an option. Don't be worried about the outside look, or the loud"ish" location.

The inside is warm, sweet and inviting... Just like the Ube Brownie ice cream.“

“I had the opportunity to face paint an event here. I visited two days before the event to get the layout. Both times I was here, the person working the counter was friendly and helpful. Allie is an absolute sweetheart. The pumpkin pie ice cream is heaven on a spoon. I ended up buying 3 pints to have a reserve on hand.“
