49 Best Ice Cream Shops near Newtown

“The BEST flavors of ices I’ve ever tasted - new flavors every week. All family made. A MUST try! Soft serve too for those of us more traditional 🍧🍦“

“Outrageously creamy, house-made ice cream that’s thick enough to chew — that’s Oh Wow Cow. Consistently ranked among the top three ice cream parlors in the country and easily the number one on the East Coast, this place doesn’t just live up to the hype — it obliterates it.

Each flavor is more outrageous than the next, a lineup of pure mouth fuel. The dark chocolate tastes like midnight — bold, bittersweet, and dangerously smooth. The “crack” caramel? Addictive as sin, packed with crunchy toffee bits and salted-caramel swirls that pull you back in for another hit.

The move here is the flight — five scoops, roughly the size of two generous servings, and a ticket to flavor heaven. You’ll want to linger over every spoonful, chasing texture, savor, and surprise.

There’s always a line, and it’s always worth the wait. Oh Wow Cow doesn’t just make ice cream — it crafts an experience that sticks with you long after the last bite melts.“

“This Rita’s is one of my favorite spots for a treat. Quality and service is terrific. However, there is a huge amount of bees by the trash cans, so while you are walking from your car to the store there are bees and wasps chasing you and even more after you order because you are holding sugar. Personally, I will not go there anymore because of my very bad bee phobia. I understand that little can be done about this, but I think spraying a bee killer spray in the trash cans regularly and also keeping them covered instead of open will make a huge difference. Hope no one gets stung over there. 🐝🐝🐝🐝“

“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!“

“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.“

“We were at a nearby park and decided to stop here for ice cream. My boyfriend got an orange cream water ice/soft vanilla ice cream gelati. Generous portions and so incredibly delicious especially on a hot summer day. I got the donut ice cream sandwich. Donut was alright but the ice cream…the chocolate overload is the best!! If you love all things chocolate, this is the flavor you need to get!! Staff was extremely friendly, patient, and helpful. 10/10 would recommend!“

“Mom's Ice cream shop is a hidden gem within Langhorne Borough. They offer a huge list of hard ice cream flavors along with some delicious soft serve ice cream and a variety of water ice. This business knows how to operate and gets their customers served quickly. Everyone working behind the counter seems pleasant and polite.“

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

“Great ice cream and atmosphere“

“great ice cream. Great family run business.“

“Not only did the owner of this store go out of his way to get me a cake made when I screwed up and ordered too late but all of our guests said it was the best ice cream cake they ever had. I have locations closer to me but this is the one we will be going to from now on and I am telling all of my friends and family the same.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Literally to die for!! Lots of visitors go to the other ice cream places, but just walk down Main Street a bit further and you will literally be in for a treat! We just moved to New Hope and this will be our go-to dessert place from now on.“

“Like a perfect slice of candy store history. Everything is clearly made with love by and it absolutely shows in the quality. I tried the truffles and they were some of the best I’ve had in a long time. My partner tried the ice cream and he promised we’d come back frequently“

“I truly enjoyed my time there and the clientele, in addition to the great soft Ice Cream and homemade water ices. I love supporting local businesses and ones that are owned by a family as well as a military veteran. I was honored to meet that very person as he happened to stop by! His name is Jimmy and his family name is on the sign! A lively, energetic, boisterous guy, with a huge sense of humor that is contagious! His daughter manages the window and the young people who work there are really nice to deal with. Amazingly good product! I was pleasantly surprised.“

“This was one of the spits I had planned to check out while visiting thr cool shopping area. 1st it was pretty busy however line moved fast. They offer plenty of seating however outdoor seating is limited. They offer a good selection of flavors, I decided to try to mad crack which was pretty good. Prices aren't too bad, I got a medium cup which came out to be just over $6.“

“*Edited - original review was for a different location, i am so sorry**

Location is great! Staff is friendly and their product is wonderful. Their variety of custard flavors blew me away. Our local location only ever has chocolate and vanilla. High recommended this Ritas!“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“my favorite spot for dessert 🍨 no matter where I am. staff is always friendly.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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 ?“

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

“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.“

“We Love this place!! delicious ice cream and friendly service.“

“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!!“

“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!“

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

“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“

“good food and clean place“

“Amanda was amazing. She was all alone working and it was very busy. She handled it like a pro. Not only did she do her job very well but she did it with joy! She made our experiences great and exceeded our expectations! Thank you Amanda! You should get a bonus for working alone on a busy night!“

“Great all year round“

“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!“

“The hottest coffee in Lambertville! ☕️“

“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“

“Awesome!!!!!! Thank you very much“

“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“
