Ice Cream Shops near New Cumberland

“Oh boy, where do I even begin with my recent visit to Dairy Queen? It was an experience like no other, and despite the unexpected turn of events, I left with a belly full of delicious treats and a tale to tell!Let me start by saying that the staff at this Dairy Queen location truly went above and beyond in the face of adversity. As I sat at one of the cozy booths, eagerly savoring my Blizzard, I noticed a commotion near the entrance. Before I could comprehend what was happening, a daring criminal burst into the store, waving what seemed to be a weapon. Panic filled the air as customers ducked for cover, their frozen treats abandoned on the tables.Now, here comes the truly remarkable part: as it turns out, this audacious thief was allergic to peanuts! And you know what Dairy Queen is known for? Their scrumptious peanut butter sauce! Talk about a twist of fate! The brave staff members, armed with nothing but quick thinking and a few ice cream cones, launched an all-out assault on the assailant, pelting him with perfectly aimed ice cream cones. It was like watching a heroic scene from a movie!The criminal, being allergic to peanuts, was already in a bad spot, but the addition of ice cream cone projectiles turned the tide in favor of justice. It was quite a sight to behold! The staff's remarkable coordination and bravery in the face of danger were truly commendable. Kudos to them for turning a potentially dangerous situation into a heroic and hilarious one!Now, let's not forget the reason I came to Dairy Queen in the first place: the food! Despite the chaos unfolding around me, I managed to take a few bites of my Blizzard, and oh boy, it was absolutely divine! The perfect blend of creamy ice cream and mouthwatering mix-ins left my taste buds dancing with joy. Dairy Queen never fails to deliver on their promise of heavenly desserts.In the end, the police arrived swiftly and apprehended the criminal, who was nursing a mild allergic reaction and a good deal of embarrassment. The atmosphere in the store quickly transformed from one of tension to relief and triumph. The Dairy Queen staff deserves all the applause for their courage, quick thinking, and impeccable ice cream cone aim!In conclusion, my visit to this Dairy Queen will forever be etched in my memory. Not only did I enjoy their delectable treats, but I also witnessed a real-life superhero showdown involving ice cream cones and an allergic criminal. If you're looking for both incredible food and an unexpected adventure, this Dairy Queen location is the place to be!“

“The owner Mindy, is such a sweet person. All of her employees are also very kind, sweet, & excellent workers. I'd recommend this Dairy Queen to be the best one in the central Pennsylvania area. Thanks Mindy for your AWESOME Customer Service 🥰♥️🥰“

“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.“

“The quality and the flavor is amazing!“

“muy Buena variedad y buen precio!“

“Delicious ice cream from the Penn State Creamery. Grilled sticky ice cream takes me back to memories of The Diner at campus. They have cup, cones, Sundays and milkshakes too. Lots of choices!“

“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!“

“Ice cream shop situated right at the Downtown end of the Walnut Street pedestrian bridge. Has outdoor seating. Very tasty. Order either vanilla or chocolate ice cream then add a mix-in (long list of mix-in options) to create a flavor of ice cream. Reasonably priced.“

“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“

“I have been to this shop numerous times, each visit more rewarding than the last. I have to say the "Cinnamon Bun Latte" is just amazing!“

“My grand baby is making that a everyday trip for her after school. It makes her happy’. Thank you!“

“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!“

“The chocolate oreo trick or treat is amazing!! If you love chocolate, you'll love it!“

“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.“

“My daughter had a birthday party on a busy Friday night with about 40 people Our waitresses Cindy and Ava were FANTASTIC and the manager Nate even stayed to cook for the party!!!!! Huge thank you to them all for making our party a wonderful experience“

“Overall, the store is great. I do have two complaints, however: 1. They should bring back the salad bar. Saladworks is nice, but I would prefer to pay $6.99 (or even $7.99) a pound to make my own salad, rather than paying $10.49 for a salad at Saladworks that includes lettuce plus 5 toppings, then if you want to add an extra topping, like sunflower seeds, you get charged for the most expensive topping you've selected (which is usually the protein). Also, I've encountered many issues with Saladworks where they have messed up my order - including one time where they did not include my protein. (I usually do mobile orders so I can run in and pick it up, but now I know to check my order before leaving.) If this Giant were to bring back the salad bar, I think they should do away with the various pre-made salads and deserts on the salad bar. I never saw anyone taking any of that stuff and it drives up the price of the salad bar. If any customers want those things, they can go buy them at the deli counter. 2. "Sushi Wednesday" has been a joke recently. Today when I visited the store, there were literally two packages of sushi marked as "Sushi Special" in the display case. The display case was practically full of other sushi (not on sale), by the way. I really feel like their Sushi Wednesday has been used as a bait & switch lately. You go into the store expecting to buy some sushi that's on sale, but you get there and they don't have anything or at least nothing except a Veggie Roll or a basic California Roll. Then, you have been thinking about sushi on your way there, so you have to buy one of their full price ($12.99+) rolls to satisfy your craving. Of course you don't HAVE to... but it sure feels like the old bait & switch gimmick to me.“

“Stopped by ColdStone creamery at 8pm on a whim and was amazed by the long line out the door. But the staff were quick and efficient, making my experience so enjoyable. Made my own ice cream creation and it was absolutely delicious. Definitely not waiting years to go back again!“
