“this place is amazing, I would highly recommend“

“While out on road trips for our son’s baseball games, we often try out local privately owned ice cream shops. On a recent trip to Norristown, we tried out La Sorpresa and we were very happy with the experience. It’s a real nice, family-friendly spot with plenty of parking. They have tons of option to choose from, including hot dogs, nachos, ice cream, water ice, popsicles, unique soft drinks, and candy. The ice cream, water ice and popsicles are homemade, and they had very creative flavors. We tried the ice cream sundaes with churros, which were amazing. They made the churros fresh for us, so they took a few minutes to prepare, but it was well worth the wait. The pistachio ice cream was awesome. Their popsicles looked really good, with fresh fruit inside. I’ll have to try that next time.Service was very pleasant and helpful. And compared to many other privately owned ice cream shops, it was actually a good value! Seating inside seemed a bit limited, but we were visiting in off peak hours, so we didn’t have any problems.Next time we’re in Norristown for a game, we’ll be stopping off at La Sorpresa!“

“My husband and I come here all of the time, we love our ice cream!!! This is our favorite ice cream now, I crave it over anywhere else. Their chocolate peanut butter is so good and we love their banana! The ice cream is cold (if you know you know, some ice cream just melts so fast, this is ice cream is nice and frozen) creamy, and thick! I also love ordering online and just picking up when I get there, super convenient!“

“Handel’s has the best ice cream in the area hands down and tons of flavors to choose from! The staff are always friendly and it’s much appreciated that they are open year around!!“

“Can't believe I haven't left a review here yet!! They have so many vegan options and the pricing here is extremely reasonable, making it possible to go often with my son. Also, the owner and staff have always been so friendly :)Kid-friendliness: They have a nice bench out front for kids to sit on while enjoying their ice cream :)“

“What a gem Downtown Scoop is for the Souderton community! Their ice cream is decadent and always comes in a really great variety of flavors, including vegan options. Their staff is always so kind, as is the owner, Kevin. Could not more highly recommend Downtown Scoop!“

“Still our favorite treat spot since 1981!“

“On our way out to the healing wall in Collegeville we stopped at this little hole in the wall for breakfast. It was a good pick. The food was awesome and staff very friendly. I got this dish called the Down South Homie. Homefries covered with pulled pork with BBQ sauce, provolone cheese, 2 over medium eggs and I added hot sauce. All I can say is OMG. Pricing is not bad either“

“R U open now being U R essential as food??? And that it's May now? R U considered as essential? Is it dangerous for UR servers at window? Do U have servers manning the to go/ pick up window? LOVE UR homemade water ice!“

“A little disappointed with selection for Easter- chocolate chip, sugar, brownie, lemon, and carrots cake. The only "fun" one was strawberry pretzel. Had a catering flyer and would have taken to keep handy, but no prices in it.But cookies were good - a little chewy and doughy with a little crisp on outside. Clean and modern storefront. Would probably try again.Parking: Pick up spots available right out front.Kid-friendliness: What kiddo doesn't like a good cookie? They have actual cookies baked on display, so you can see the size and offerings for the week.“

“Very small place so it gets crammed with just a few customers. I had a chocolate peanut butter milkshake that was great. The employee was very nice. But when I went to pay she told me it was cash only. I am giving five stars because they let me take the food and come back later and pay. But after checking the website, the front of the store, and the menu in the store I noticed nowhere does it say cash only. They either need to state that more. Obviously, because it doesn't say it at all. Four, they need to start accepting debit and credit“

“We were looking for a last minute vendor for a large event we were hosting and Abundance Water Ice came through for us! Their water ice was a huge hit and they were amazing to work with! We highly recommend them for any event and hope to partner with them again in the future!“

“Love Rita’s but in withholding the fifth star because they never have mint chip cream ice“

“And the best fudge , Carmel apples and ice cream“

“The best ice cream in the area and surroundings. I come here very often. Mostly after dinner. The service has always been friendly. Some of my favorite flavors are: butter brickle, candy cane and maple walnut. I've had almost all flavors and they're all good. They have a little shop inside with your favorite ice cream flavors in a larger quantity. Also they have good egg nog available during the holidays. Lastly, mini golf is a fun addition.“

“Everytime I go visit my family in Philly, I have to go to Joe's Water Ice. Since they live pretty close to it, I always walk here and on a hot summer day after sweating and walking to this place, it is always a nice treat to order some delicious shaved ice. I personally love the lemon flavor because its not too sweet or sour. I've had the cherry one, but personally that one is too sweet for my liking. You really gotta come here if you have never been to this place for some water ice! Even during colder seasons, I will always come here and enjoy my lemon ice.“

“We love Petruccis- treats for the whole family, pups included ❤️“
