Bethlehem Dairy Store

This banana split was the best one I have ever had. I'm 60 yrs old and I have been in thousand of ice cream shops. Lots of flavors to choose from. I'm old school. Original is the best. Great service. If you are around and love ice cream this is the place to go.

I am an ice cream snob. Everywhere I go, I have to try the ice cream. And the place I always compare to is the Bethlehem Dairy Store.

I've been going here for a decade. Their ice cream is fantastic. Homemade ice cream in pretty much the largest flavor selection you'll find, hand-dipped waffle cones, real whipped cream, and honest-to-goodness hot fudge and hot caramel. You don't find these things anymore. And if the ice cream claims to have peanut butter, cheesecake, brownies, or another ingredient in it, you can SEE the ingredient in it and it is what it says. The peanut butter actually looks and tastes like the consistency of peanut butter.

No, it's not inexpensive, but the portions make up for it and the quality is well-worth it. It's also locally owned, and iconic to the local population. There is reason that, on a hot day, this is the ice cream place that people find it's worth waiting in a line for.

Every time I go somewhere new for ice cream, whomever I'm with will inevitably ask, "Is it as good as the Cup?" (Local name for Bethlehem Dairy Store), and the answer is always, just about without exception, "No."

The photos that I added were my actual ice creams BTW. They aren't stock photos. I ate them all myself :)

Great ice cream & other treats! Many flavors to choose from, all homemade. If you plan to eat there, there isn't much seating at all inside. You'll have to go outside. Not ideal when it's cold out. Best to take it to go. We've gotten an ice cream cake from there this past weekend. 1/4 sheet. You get to choose 2 ice cream flavors( i chose choc/van), your middle(cookie crumb), what colors and decorations you'd like on it. It was a very good cake. It was $34. I would order from them again. You are supposed to order about a week in advance.

Vintage diner style restaurant space staffed by motivated young people who serve up delicious treats with a smile. This place is a community gem, it’s a must patron location.
