In fact, they make 23 flavors of ice cream and two sorbets. Family-owned, the creamery also comes with a store and restaurant. Visiting on a Friday afternoon, the cafe was packed with families eating sandwiches, soups, and ice cream. One point of pride is many of the ingredients are natural and local. For example, rather than using purple dye, they use the extract from purple carrots. In their chocolate ice cream, they use cacao from Wilbur, a nearby chocolate company. This place is a gem!

Also they asked if it was our first time, cause I had to ask what should we get ? The let us try a sample of different flavors and the best shocker. I got a free drink ( coffee) for first time. The ice cream was really good!!! My kids loved it also! My wife who didn't want ice cream somehow ate half of mine when she tried it. We didn't get the food but it looked delicious. When we are back in the area we already said we will be trying the food next. Also cool factor, they have a big window that you can watch them make the ice cream. It does get crowded. Loved the seating in the place.

A local guide had warned me that Fox Meadows Creamery had become very commercial. It was. Yet the…read moreice cream was amazing. So that counts for a lot. When we arrived at around 7:30PM on a Monday night, the creamery and cafe was bustling with a long line. We were able to sample a few flavors, and then settled on the tiramisu and shoofly pie. Both were excellent, and the prices were highly affordable. There were so many appealing flavors of ice cream, not to mention other dessert items. Besides the rich, creamy, and wonderfully satisfying ice cream, we appreciated that the overall establishment had ample seating and a fantastic playground for our young kids. My toddlers loved swinging and playing in the toy tractor structure until way past dark. Compared to other local creameries in the area, Fox Meadow has the benefit of being open until relatively late. It appears that Fox Meadow Creamery has really expanded its business and now sells wholesale at local grocery stores. That said, there are of course more options and a better experience at the creamery itself.

Oh heck, I'll have what I usually get: scrambled eggs, rye toast, bacon, hashbrowns, a side of cake (cause it's that good) and a shared scoop of oatmeal raisin cookie ice cream. Our waitress was lovely. Our food came out, surprisingly quick and the coffee/tea refills, were constant. Udder Choice, did you just serve me cold, lumpy hard eggs (as if sitting on the counter for 30 minutes) and bacon, that had been sitting around for too long.

The inside of the restaurant is somewhat narrow, but long. They have a variety of seating available and I was put in a comfy booth towards the front. Both the employee working at the host stand and my server were very friendly and seemed genuinely happy to be working there. My server said she had been there since she was 15 years old and seemed to have good report with the regulars. I ordered a small spring house salad with the dressing on the side and the cheesesteak stuffed pretzel. The stuffed pretzel was greasy and amazing in all of the ways a good Amish pretzel is. It had the right amount of salty and sweet and the cheesesteak filling was hot and gooey. The pickle and chips on the side added a nice crunch. The salad was fresh and loaded with toppings. I wished I had room for ice cream because all of the flavors in the case next to where I was seated sounded delicious, but I was too full. I asked for a rice krispie to go and it didn't let me down. It had a nice vanilla flavor and that fresh marshmallow-y pull in each bite. Prices were more than fair for the quality. The bathroom is outside in a separate building, but was also easy to locate and clean. I will be back to try some ice cream!

The vibe immediately pulls you in, classic 1950s ice cream parlor energy with a fun, nostalgic feel. One of the employees was even dressed in a white shirt and black bow tie, which totally fit the theme and added to the experience. They have a huge variety of flavors and options, so there's something for everyone. We came specifically for their Valentine's Day ice cream flight, and it did not disappoint. The flight included: * Cupid's Milk & Cookies * Raspberry Cheesecake * Red Velvet * Chocolate Covered Strawberry Every flavor was excellent, but raspberry cheesecake was the standout favorite rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced. We also grabbed a kiddie size of white chocolate cranberry cheesecake, which was absolutely delicious and worth ordering on its own. Because it was freezing out (a rare win), we took advantage of that and grabbed two kiddie sizes to go for my mom, knowing they wouldn't melt on the way home. They also had ice cream pies stocked in the freezer, plus homemade waffle cones and waffle bowls, which smelled incredible. The only downside and this has nothing to do with Sweet Ride themselves was parking. With all the snow piled everywhere, we missed a sign indicating a bus stop zone right in front of the shop and ended up with a $50 parking ticket from the borough. Lesson learned: parking in the area can be tricky, so just be extra mindful of signage, especially in winter. That aside, this was a five-star experience across the board. Fantastic ice cream, fun atmosphere, and a great overall experience. We'll absolutely be back just with better parking awareness next time. Highly recommend if you're anywhere near Reading
