The best water ice in the city ? only downside is it's cash only.

Good ice spot. I had the lemon which had actual lemon pieces in it. By the looks of it, this place has been around for a long time - so I hope it stays open for many years to come. I’ll be back again for sure.

Stopped here after work several times this summer- was the perfect place to introduce a friend to Philly's water ice for the first time. I go for the classic mango and vanilla soft serve combo, but also enjoy some of their other flavors. Quick service, cheap and really tasty!!

Nice people work there, try whatever flavor you want to. Just so can figure out what flavor you want, they have over 15 plus flavors , with a few different ways of having your water ice, ice cream and milkshakes & don't forget your Philadelphia pretzels

Been going to this place since I was a kid but recently the customer service has gotten bad. I found a hair in my water ice and the lady at the register was smirking the whole time. My friend who had no idea about a gelato was not treated nicely and I did not feel welcome as being a women of color along with my poc friends. The whole experience was bad and I never ever want to order from here again.

Great service/nice people, but the water ice itself is just too water and lacks flavors. I got a cherry water ice and vanilla ice cream gelati. I was so disappointed. I ended up going to another place to get my orders .
