Our deluge of seasonal Fall menu items starts NOW!

First up is the Cinnamon Roll Coffee Cake Sundae, which is built around the eponymous baked good made by My Sweet Gluttony. You get to pair it with the ice cream flavor of your choice, though we're really digging it with Cinnamon Boast Bunch right now.

This week also kicks off our spooky game showcase with Ghosts 'n Goblins. Only the stouthearted can make it past the first level!

Tonight is the first Manayunk.com Stroll After Hours event this summer, and we're coming prepared.

We're introducing the Chocolate Taco-lette, a never-before-seen menu item that combines our love of plus-ing up childhood favorites AND goofy names. The taco-lette is comprised of a homemade waffle cone taco shell filled with our homemade vanilla ice cream, ultimately topped with our premium chocolate shell and jimmies.

Please note that we are ONLY selling these during Stroll After Hours, which means Thursday nights from here through August 6th.

It's been a long time since we've made this one, but we're excited to bring it back for the Semiquincentennial!

The Red White and Blue is built upon 3 little scoops of Strawberry, Vanilla, and Blueberry Cheesecake ice cream and subsequently topped with fresh strawberries, blueberries, and whipped cream. It's equal parts refreshing AND patriotic!

Manayunk is going to be filled with sweet music this weekend thanks to Sing Us Home Festival !

We're joining in the fun with frankly TOO MANY specialty sundaes, headlined by the Sing Us Home Sundae Experience. It's built upon a foundation of Dulce de leche ice cream and is topped with caramel sauce, whipped cream, and a warm toasted churro.

With Cinco de Mayo right around the corner, we're jumping in with both feet. We also have Fried Ice Cream and Ice Cream Nachos, and that means it's going to be *really hard* to make a choice. Here's a tip from a pro: Eat them all.
