HANDS DOWN BEST ICE CREAM IN PHILLY. we stopped by here after dinner since yelped said this was THE SPOT TO TRY and luckily, we came. first the staff here is so nice and courteous. The ice cream is over the chain. nice and creamy melts in your mouth. We had to come here twice cause it was like an addiction lol.

The ice cream was good but nothing special. We thought that the ice cream was very overpriced. We also thought it was strange that if you chose for the prepackaged ice cream over the fresh, it was a different price.

It's ice cream season so don't be alarmed by my excessive ice cream reviews! I've wanted to try Franklin Ice Cream Bar for a minute. I was not disappointed! I'll try one of their ice cream bars next time, but this time I went for the soft serve bc Franklin Fountain doesn't do soft serve and that was my mood. Pictured is vanilla soft serve, caramel and waffle cone pieces. It was very very yummy!

This place is so cute! I was sad for the employees, it seemed like the AC must have been broken, which was terrible; please fix it and take care of them!! My partner ordered a peach ice cream which had real peach pieces in and was so smooth and creamy. I had a lavender + rose soda, which I think was the best soda of that variety I've ever had! I would have rated this 5 stars, but it was way too hot in there.

This is an old ice cream shop that I think has been around for years (or just looks like a traditional ice cream parlour). In any case - the servers were working fast because there was quite a line but they were very friendly and the ice cream was great! We ate our ice cream while walking though just since the place wasn't that big and a lot of people were already inside. But it's near the river in a nice part of the city center, so good area for walking. We actually had dinner nearby at an Asian restaurant so it was conveniently located for dessert.

After brunch on a beautiful fall Sunday afternoon, walked to Franklin Ice Cream. This was my first time here, and I was fascinated by the old-fashioned look inside.Checked out all the many flavors of ice cream and decided on the butter pecan with walnuts in maple syrup. Quality and delicious ice cream. I highly enjoyed it! The ice cream also came in a cool takeout container!The staff was helpful and friendly.

I usually go to Franklin Fountain next door because I didn't know about this place. I'm glad I went to Franklin Ice Cream Bar because it's the same as Franklin Fountain but less busy. I got a very simple yet classic twist soft serve. It's good but less sweet compared to other soft-serve I had. It's good but not great! It was a little pricey but overall, it's not bad.

When I tell you love in a cup, best relationship EVER!!!!! I always saw a long line around the corner and I see why. I was on Market street doing the greedy dance and didn't care. I would make this a weekly treat but I'm not trying to check in at Endocrine

Long time fan of Franklin Fountain. We were in Philly visiting but the line was so long for the OG place. We turned the corner and saw this new (to us) ice cream bar with virtually 0 line. Joined it not knowing it was an actual custom ice cream bar hole in the wall but was a fun surprise.This is a hidden gem/life hack! You can get the same hard ice cream here without the wait at FF and you can also get an ice cream bar custom to your liking if you choose. My GF got the hard ice cream in a cone and I got one of the ice cream bars. The bar is $14 which is a hefty sum for an ice cream bar in my opinion. It was thicc and heavy though and incredibly decadent. The keystone shape was cute. I got vanilla with milk chocolate coating and hydrox cookie crumble. Absolutely could not finish the entire bar because of size and also the richness. Was delicious but i wish they had a mini version.They accept card which is nice!

Ice cream sandwich with chocolate chip cookies and vanilla ice cream is basically perfect. Can't wait to come back and try more.
