50 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 🍧🍦“

“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...!“

“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.“

“Best ice cream parlor around. You ask for extra, they give your extra!! No halfsies. I've tried other places and they ALWAYS disappoint. Gibbys NEVER does!!“

“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!“

“We stopped by July 4th before heading to Sesame place for the fireworks. Great service and a variety of flavors to choose from. My daughter was even happy. She asked for extra sprinkles ( where did I go wrong, they are JIMMIES!!!) They even stuffed somein the cone for her. They take cash or cards, which is helpful. A few places to sit outside if you want to hang back and enjoy your cool great.“

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

“Great ice cream and atmosphere“

“The picture speaks itself, it was one the best ice cream I had, it reminded me Nina's in Doylestown, PA. I had coffee and coconut, and this was my third time, I am 100% sure this place ia just great, but also a bit underrated, I wish there was the 6th star.“

“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.“

“Toll house. One of the best ice creams I’ve had. Flavor and texture are both excellent. Not over sweet. The nuts and chocolate in the ice cream are great.
One of the things I appreciate a lot is their ice cream color all look natural. There’s no vibrant colors which you know for sure is artificial“

“The best water ice in the area! All of the flavors are homemade and delicious. The custard is also amazing. You won’t be disappointed!“

“This place will make you remember your childhood. So good. Great flavors of ice cream and anything you can image to add to them. Great staff, super quick and helpful how busy these kids are. This will be a stop every time we are in the area“

“The soft serve is my go to. But the homemade water ice is to die for! So now I get gelatis. Some nights there is a line but it is worth the wait. The staff is friendly the place looks clean and the ice cream and water is amazing. Must go place!!“

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

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

“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!“

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

“great ice cream. Great family run business.“

“*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!“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“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!“

“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 !“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“Nice place ! Great taste and great location“

“Great all year round“

“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.“

“We stopped in tonight right before they closed—thank you for serving us 🙌🏼—and it was AMAZING. Kyra (not sure if I spelled that right) was soooo friendly and personable. She let us try a few samples. The ice cream is to die for; they have delicious flavors and you can tell it’s homemade. This spot is an absolute GEM, and so is the staff. Plus it’s the best ice cream you’ll find in town. We love Nina’s!“

“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!“

“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!“

“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!!“

“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 never had bad service and everything has always been incredible“

“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“

“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“

“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! ☕️“
