50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Newtown

“Oh-Wow is right! This is one of the best ice creams I've ever had. At least a dozen flavors at any one time, richly flavored and so smooth! I am partial to their chocolates like "I hate chocolate" and "chocolate salted caramel pecan". Good to double up with "cashew caramel" or "coconut almond chocolate chip" or...!“

“Such fun and unique ice cream shop!“

“Cute little ice cream shop tucked away on the outer edge of a busy plaza. It has a small town feel to it and was very quiet. I was surprised with the nice relaxing outside deck to sit and eat. We didn’t try the waffles this time, but the strawberry shake, pistachio ice cream and chocolate cream were all delicious. Will be back to try the waffles on another night!“

“Great service! Took me and my grandkids there Sunday, Great fun for all of us. A bit too sugary for my liking, but I’m old and crusty! We were served by a nice young man, Mr. Shah. He treated me greatly, even helping me down the stairs on the way out. 10/10, would go again! ❤️“

“I have only compliments for the cookies at Crumbl. The large size, the fabulous and always changing selection of cookies - each more delicious than the last. A 4-pack will provide a very satisfying dessert for 4 (or more) people. The staff at Newtown is very friendly and personable; the store is immaculate, the service is quick. Stop in once and I am sure you will return.“

“My family and I stopped here when we were looking for a bakery in the area. The food is delicious! I highly recommend Panna Gelateria and I would definitely come back.“

“Has always been the best Ice Cream around. The taste is always consistent.“

“This is the third time we’ve come here and we’ll just keep coming back. Great ice cream, delicious milkshakes (with malt, which I LOVE) and I tried the water ice for the first time today, so good. Love the environment, and always have a good experience!“

“I love this place, I always, always come here, the service is always top notch, and the ice cream is great, I always find new flavors, this visit I did not find my favorite flavor of blackcurrant, I take other flavors for tasting. And in honor of the holiday for St. Valentine they give away delicious candies for free, hurray“

“Great ice cream and water ice, and a great family owned business! The employees are very kind and patient with children. Definitely a business that I recommend and will continue to support.“

“Please stop by this location with the newer owners! This is our go to spot for our blizzards and also for everyone’s birthday cake! They always have the cake we need at the last minute and always are willing to personalize it. The woman was so sweet last time we got a cake and she let my daughter help her with writing on the cake. They also made a donation for my daughter’s softball team fundraiser that was very generous. Definitely make this your go to Dairy Queen!“

“I've always loved Rita's! my daughter got to finally enjoy a piece of heaven from my childhood. Family of 7. 4 of them experienced Rita's for the first time ever. We make it our mission to go twice before we leave.“

“I wanted to taste and see what the difference was between Italian Ice and Water Ice. I have to say it's good but if you are borderline diabetic don't try water ice. They need a smaller serving size which is my only complaint. I had the sour apple, with vanilla ice cream and vanilla soft serve on the top, but I couldn't make it to the vanilla ice at the bottom of the cup. Very good prices and service was good.“

“great ice cream. Great family run business.“

“Great local spot for fresh ice cream and chocolates. They have a variety of interesting flavors to choose from- I’d most highly recommend Ed’s Special, which features chocolate covered pretzels with a pb & fudge swirl. Service is friendly and timely. Definitely stop by sometime if you’re in the area!“

“Great ice cream and atmosphere“

“The employees here are so sweet and helpful. Delicious ice cream cakes can’t wait to get another one soon. Currently dreaming about it!!!“

“Amazing customer service along with delicious froyo! I thought I left my bag at the outdoor benches next to the store and the manager, Lauren, checked the cameras and said I indeed did leave with my bag. It was such a relief that I didn’t lose it and I ended up tracking down my bag after that. Thanks so much for your help!“

“Older lady made it right. Came here a week ago and they did not fill my quart of water ice to the top. Came back tonight and had asked them to please make sure it was filled and possibly the manager gave me a regular size to make up for the missing water ice in the quart, I definitely appreciated this, good customer service. Will make sure I always come to this location now!“

“I hope the owner/chef reads this! My son and I ate there tonight, I had the cheesesteak with cooper sharp, fries and mozz sticks. Absolutely delicious! The thing that I appreciated the most is that your fries are made to order. I loved seeing the potato to the fry cutter into the oil. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience. I will try to make it up again❤️??“

“Ok this place has the greatest ice in america! Everything tastes great! The employees I swear to god have some great manners and now how to get the job done. The make the ice cream fast but no mistakes what so ever! So when you come here to visit make sure you enjoy while it lasts cause it sure is a treat!“

“I love mixing flavors and trying new flavors. Blueberry will always be my favorite original flavor though.“

“I ordered a smoothie today from this location. The manager, Peter, was very clean. He changed his gloves a few times within my order and another person's order. Peter, spoke well English and I was able to communicate with him well. He was very honest when I gave him too much money during my transaction. I would definitely go back to this location again in the future.“

“Awesome customer service. Great atmosphere for young and old and even the 4 legged friends get free Ice cream.“

“Awesome service! Carol is such a nice person ! Kids requested a flavor she was able to find it and had it available in no time !“

“I think the flavors Piña colada and Key Lime are the best here... everytime I go there I received excellent service...“

“Str8 Up Awesomeness At Its Best!!!!“

“The only place I go for Ice Cream in New Hope! They always have a great selection of fabulous ice cream flavors! Even my pups love ❤️ going there!“

“No matter when or what time of the day I stopped there everyone was pleasant and had the best customer service skills. If they didn’t have what I wanted which was rare Bryan would make it for me in minutes. So sad today there done. Have a safe winter see you all in the spring. Ps other Rita’s are open for a lil longer but other Rita’s definitely don’t taste like Bryan’s Rita’s.“

“Good atmosphere. For the most part the staff is very nice and friendly.

Parking: There's a small lot but always parking available. I've never been unable to get a parking spot and have been gong to this location for the last 10 years.“

“I’ve been going to. Bruster’s shops for almost 20 years between Florida and now Trevose and the flavors never disappoint! Creamy and delicious homemade ice cream and yummy cakes if you so choose. There’s a flavor for everyone but my favorite is Espresso Yourself, Graham Central Station, New York Cheesecake, and the classic Cookies and Cream. You really can’t go wrong with any of them! The handmade in store waffle cones are to die for! Treat yourself to a tasty treat!“

“The ice creams were super delicious and creamy, the lady at the counter was really nice! When you go, I highly recommend you get the flavors Mad Crack (absolutely amazing) and Strawberry. (I personally don’t even like strawberries and found the strawberry ice cream absolutely delicious so that should say everything you need to know about the ice cream there)“

“what a great place to come for ice cream, the customer service is excellent, very respectful and friendly staff. The atmosphere is very comfortable. Best ice cream place in Bristol.❤️❤️“

“Great all year round“

“Last Sunday morning and arrived 2 hours too early, as they open at 12....This is my post yoga ritual when I travel home to Philly...The owner had come to retrieve something from the store and I explained that I grew up in the area, but lived in SC now...Told him my fav was chocolate and that in SC, we don't get all the flavors... He unexpectedly came out with a cup of chocolate water ice.. Thank you..It was awesome! Will be back whenever I get to visit home..and appreciate your hospitality!!“

“Quick service and friendly staff. Easy to order and lots of choices. The staff showed me the size differences between the water ice cups. Like that there’s calorie count on the ordering menu. The sugar free tangerine was delicious and the mango gelati was tasty as well. Definitely put a lid on them if you are travelling somewhere and you can’t eat it right away. The soft pretzels looks great too!
Easy to park and place your order at the window.
Maybe Rita’s should start drive thru’s as well??

Dietary restrictions: I’m dairy free so I just order the water ice. I cannot order the gelati sadly. Rita’s, how about dairy free/vegan soft serve ice cream ?“

“Hi.
December 9th,10pm-10-50pm,I was in your store, waiting for an order for the Door dash.
On woman came up to me in the store, and started saying something strange,in appearance it seemed to me that she was a drug addict.
Glassy eyes, scary looking.
And they threw mad at my car.
Who hasn't seen it.
Words are one thing,but on video from cameras,you can see for yourself.
Give this video to the policy and let them sort it out.
If you don't just,give me the video,then just forward the video to the policy.
THANK YOU!“

“I am always checking the Rita’s App to see what flavors they have that day. That is very helpful that they have that now. The only problem is not every Rita’s has the option for online ordering. For the Huntingdon Valley store, thank you for offering the option to order online. It definitely makes life easier and it’s really convenient to see what you have available before taking the ride over. I hope the other Rita’s get on board !! The new Strawberry Banana is amazing. Also the Cantaloupe is even better. That is probably my favorite flavor. Can’t wait to see what is next. Thank you“

“I've never had bad service and everything has always been incredible“

“good food and clean place“

“As someone who occasionally went before I’ve started to go much more with the recent changes and new hires. The service is quick and the cashiers and employees are so friendly it makes it very easy to come back to! Finally a win with ice cream in our area“

“A nice ice cream window. No inside to sit at, but a number of tables on a clean patio.. and it across from the river and launch ramp. That also has a gazebo and seats...and nice views.

The extensive Debbie's menu is entirely ice creme ..the street has Italian, Chinese, etc.
BUT MY FAVORITE THING HERE IS: it has something like 30 flavors of SOFT ice creme any time you want!!!! Yup, coffee or. Raspberry or banana soft serve ...most any time“

“I frequent this Rita’s often. Today 6/15/22 I received my order total and I realized it was much more than usual. I asked was there a price change recently. I was told there was a $1 charge for sprinkles!!! This new pricing is not posted on their current menu. Patrons should not be charged for this until it’s visibly posted on the menu.“

“The hottest coffee in Lambertville! ☕️“

“Awesome!!!!!! Thank you very much“

“Peppes is a family owned establishment and makes everything home made and fresh. Friendly atmosphere and lots to choose from.“

“Good Service ❗Good Service ❗“

“Very extensive water ice and ice cream menu, offering a variety of flavors for everything. They also offer foods such as corn dogs, churros, funnel cakes, and more. Very good place to go in the Summertime“

“nice place but very desolate and not what it once was.. i wish there was a bigger assortment of flavors and this cold stone feels like it really died down from what it once was. still really nice for some quick ice cream and service is great“
