“Sweets and treats! Can’t wait until they ship too! Yummy!“

“Always great ice cream! The staff is always friendly and even if there’s a line it is always worth it!“

“I don’t think you could ever go here and not be satisfied. The ice cream is AMAZING, the selection is extensive and they are some of the nicest people working in customer service.
You know you’re going to want some later, so always order a pint to go!“

“The Cookie Monster ice cream was my son’s favorite!“

“Great Ice Cream, friendly staff, good prices, & quick service“

“Stopped in during the food truck festival and was blown away by the great service and fresh treats! 5/5 definitely recommend!!“

“Absolutely delicious locally homemade ice cream. Great addition to the neighborhood, but also a destination worth traveling to!“

“Angel Nunez had amazing customer service. Ice cream was great recommend the peach ice cream it was bomb!!“

“I am a migrant worker from Korea.
Working at the shipyard under the blazing sun has given me a heat-struck face and a work uniform coated in sweat and dust — a collaboration that makes locals step away from me.
Yes, that’s right! People don’t avoid poop because it’s scary… they avoid it because it’s dirty.
My English? Not great. But the staff here? Extremely kind.
And the moment I take a sip of their shake, I taste heaven itself.
My only regret… I discovered this ice cream shop in August.
If I had found it in June, my shake consumption would have been legendary.“

“This place is great. The ice cream is delicious, and the cones make it even better.

Small space, big flavor, and the prices aren't unreasonable.

Kid-friendliness: Seems like an ice cream shop in the 50's.“

“Best ice cream around and new flavors are great“

“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!“

“My first time there was a little confusing finding the entrance/window to order (by the way, it’s in the back).

Secondly, they don’t offer samples, which is disappointing, but it’s their policy. Buying a full scoop of a flavor I’ve never tried before is a gamble I don’t like taking.

Third, it’s about $6–7 for a single scoop. I think that’s a bit pricey (IMO), but since I only go once in a while, I guess I don’t mind paying it.

Fourth, seating is limited if you want to sit and enjoy your ice cream. I’ve only been there twice, and both times I ended up eating in my car. It kind of takes away from my summer evening ritual: sitting outside while the warm air melts into the ice cream and I have to eat it as fast as it melts (the little kid in me still loves that, lol).

That said, their banana pudding ice cream was delicious. I’ll definitely stop by one last time to treat my sweet tooth before they permanently close.“

“I have read some of the reviews that were one star. I do agree it could be faster. I do agree that I also cannot stand the Wooden Spoons. However, when I read about how it tastes artificial or not prepared well and it's just soft serve I want 100% disagree. It's not fake from a carton Frozen treat mix it is made what's the highest quality ingredients. Therefore you know what you're getting and it is delicious. Glam Jam is my absolute favorite and I must try. So if you're unhappy with a wooden spoon and how slow it is, bring your own spoon like I do. And knowing that it is well worth the wait won't matter. If you're impatient hit up a dairy queen and take a look at ALL of the ingredients in their mix. Keep on doing what you're doing because quality and consistency will win every time.“

“This place is Always busy!!

I have tried water ice, hand dipped ice cream, soft serve ice cream, pretzels, hot sausage.

The ice cream and water ice are served cold, its not melting all over the place when you get it, the pretzels were warm and soft , the hot sausages were very good!

Sometimes there is a line at the windows, it moves quickly!

You get a good sized portion for the price
They have sizes from small all the way up to quart
( water ice )
The water ice and ice creams are very flavorful!“

“I’m a HUGE fan of the Meadowlark. Food is creative and delicious, pastries are out of this world, mocha is absolutely top tier. I’ve never been disappointed. The environment is cozy, warm and welcoming and everyone is always so nice.Got my kiddo and. His friend a burger for lunch today and they RAVED about them (and the ability to add or remove things to make them kid friendly is fantastic!). His friend said it’s the best burger he’s ever had! Keep doing what you do! You are just what we needed in this area!“

“Great location! They quickly served our group of over 100 people ( two busloads) on a recent Friday afternoon. We'll be back!“

“Omg! I ordered a smoked turkey hoagie with cooper sharp cheese, and it was amazing! The store was clean, well stocked with chips and other goodies. The staff today was small, but my sandwich was made with very little wait! The young lady who took my order was friendly and polite. The owner, if I'm not mistaken, made my order, and the love and care she put into my lunch was too tier.
Thanks Sistas! You guys are doing your thing!“

“Great Ice Cream shop. They’re Birthday cake ice cream is legit deliciousness. Espresso xplosion and graham slaps too.“

“Delicious ice cream - homemade -and the waffle cones are amazing. Check it out!“

“Best ever service is served with a smile the girls are so nice we try to go at least once a week #ritas#1fan“

“Rita's water ice I like what they have I tried the coffee one it was really good“

“The best crepes in the Philadelphia area, as far as I can tell. Great coffee and ice cream, too. Tucked away in Elkins Park, but very much worth discovering.“

“Can not go wrong ordering any dessert from Bredenbeck’s. We get all our daughter’s birthday cakes and go there for ice cream during the summer.“

“Without a doubt, the best Italian Water Ice around!“

“I'm just rating the name. A star will be deducted each time ICE passes by without being mooned.“

“Always a nice place to take your kids on a hot day. Not a ton of seating if you plan on staying but the staff (mostly students) are all very friendly and generally very helpful.

Parking: On a busy day, parking is near impossible in the lot as it's pretty tight, and there aren't many spots, but street parking is always a viable option.“

“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.“

“islan flavor paradise feeling“

“the homemade ice cream is amazing!!“

“This is one of my favorite spots to visit during hot summer days for water ice and ice cream. They're always changing flavors but overall the options are very simple. I also love the blendinis and mistos. The staff here are usually made up of local high school students but the service is still good. Everyone is really friendly“

“We love Sundae World. Superman is a favorite of my guy.“

“The service was very prompt and the people were friendly I had a sundae that was amazing“

“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 ?“

“Walked approximately 710th of a mile with family for a nice stroll , got gelatis, then walked 710th of a mile back home....of course both ways were up hill. �“

“Summertime must! How to keep cool.“

“It's not the biggest DQ, but it does have like 6 tables inside and the staff is generally very nice. I am pretty sure (about 80%) they don't serve food other than ice cream and other frozen treats. So, don't come looking for burgers and such. That's really all it would take to make this 5 star.“

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

“I have yet to visit since the new owners bought. I live across the country in SoCal. I WILL visit when I come home. My pop pop and aunt opened pops when I was 3! All I can say is I’m beyond happy that the new owners are bringing much needed life back into pops, and the Havertown community.“

“First time trying crumbl and this location was close by so we stopped in. I didn’t like it was only a few selections to choose from saying though we wanted to give our honest review. They were nice and warm I can say and great presentation. I just wish I could have tried more flavors. The churro was my favorite by far and the cookies an cream cheesecake not so much. I will return soon to try any new flavors.“

“Cool little ice cream shop. The owner is a really nice guy. The homemade ice cream was phenomenal!“

“I stopped today for some end of season quarts. They made me my favorite within an hour. They went above & beyond to fill my freezer. Thanks again“

“I went in here looking for something wasn't quite sure and the young lady suggested the strawberry cheesecake ice cream. And I was so glad that she did it was so delicious and you can tell that the ice cream was freshly made with pieces of strawberry cheesecake in it. Definitely sent my taste buds and palette into a happy place. I will definitely be going back and suggest anyone else that wants some good homemade ice cream to do the same you won't regret it. 😌🥰“

“We enjoyed it. Way better than the one on Haverford Road.“

“Great cookies and good service“
