Hands down the best meal I've ever had in PA! And very possibly the best soft serve ice cream I've ever had anywhere. Service was perfect, all the food was incredibly delicious, and the total bill for a burger, fried green tomatoes, sundae, and whoopie pie was well under 30. That's an incredible value for such delicious food. This is an absolute must-visit restaurant for anyone living in or traveling through PA. It will not disappoint.

Good ice cream, fair pricing, and great portions. The staff is also nice. The menu is pretty messy but they probably have what you want

What a great place with an old-time vibe. Friendly staff and their ice cream sandwiches are huge. Nice shaded patio for ice cream on a hot day. Remember to mark the stop on the Cumberland Vally Ice Cream Trail app.

Cute little ice cream shop! We stopped in from out of town. We all got ice cream... huge portions and a ton of options! Banana split was enormous! They have indoor and a lot of outdoor seating under roof.

I stay in the Harrisburg area a few times a year. I am SO glad I found this gem! The place is a favorite, judging how many happy people there were The inside is decorated nicely, and the wait staff was on point, friendly smiles and all. I ordered a medium Hot Fudge Sundae whipped cream, nuts & a cherry . The ice cream was very flavorful, and believe me it was HUGE!! Every customer near me was amazed at the size of their ice cream as well. See you next time I am in town!!

This is a hidden gem on the Susquehanna River. They provide very generous portions and at very low cost. (If you are not hungry order a small). They also provide very timely service despite long lines. They had great customer service and a great atmosphere. They had awesome outdoor seating and easily accessible condiments and any supplies needed for ice cream. The only downside to this place is the parking when it gets busy. Overall, I love this place.

Went here for the first time tonight with my partner who has been there many times. The peanut butter sundae we had was awesome. Service was fast and friendly. Will definitely go back to try their sandwiches and platters after seeing some of them being them delivered to customers. If you are in the mood for ice cream I would stop here if you are in the area. Keep up the good work!!
