I always thought of The Meadows as a localized treat, however I learned today that with a location…read morein Canberra, Australia this really makes it an international brand. Who knew that a frozen custard stand that started in Duncansville had such a reach. Checking out the website you will notice that a lot of the locations are franchises, which is the case with this one. This actually replaces the location that was at the cloverleaf. I don't know the reasons for the move, nor do I care. This now sits on Scalp Ave. in the Richland area. It sits in a building that has been everything from a therapy office to a pharmacy. Maybe this one will stick. Right next door is a Em's Sub and I have heard that he owns this as well. What I did find interesting is that there is a swing door connecting the two spaces. So stop in for a sub for your lunch and then swing over and get dessert. The location with inside seating also has outdoor seating and a drive thru. Making for needing an excuse not to get frozen custard nearly non-existent. Check out their website or Facebook page and you will be up to date with their flavors for the week and specials that happen throughout a month. I just happened to stop by when they had peanut butter melt away as a flavor and my god was that delicious. I chose to get mine in a cup instead of a cone, I don't like the mess of a cone. The pic you see is a medium, and that to me is more than enough. The space is clean as could be, and with the white interior it really does give off the feeling of a an old time malt shop. The staff are friendly, and quick as can be. They are accommodating as well.

The Meadows has many stores and has been serving creamy frozen custard for over 60 years. We were promptly waited on by the friendly and helpful staff. We are from Baltimore, Maryland, and I have never had frozen custard. My husband enjoyed a medium cup of Cappuccino Chocolate Chunk and I had the Dirty Turtle in a cone, but they gave me a small cup to keep it all together. The servings were generous and the tastes delicious. We were sold on the custards!

This is one of those iconic places that sits along a road that has longed since been bypassed by…read morethe newer highway up the road. But that does not stop it from existing. You can come here at any time during their hours throughout the warmer months (closed for winter time months), and it will be a hard feat to accomplish with the amount of people waiting just like you are. This place has been hear for years and years. I can remember coming here while I was still in elementary school. Not much has changed since then, which to me is a great thing. The building is still that funky shaped one that you can recognize from up the road, or that building people use in their directions (I love Southwestern Pennsylvania for that reason alone). The only seating available here is outdoor seating or standing room only, but when you pull up for some ice cream, you usually don't care if you have a seat or not. Attached to this place is putt-putt course (miniature golf for the rest of you). It's old, it's rugged, it's AWESOME! It does look run down, but no one here cares, what they care about is getting that hole-in-one on the eighteenth hole so they win that free game, a great reason to come back. The food here is a great mix of roadside ice cream parlor meets carhop. Everything you can think of is here, from burgers to milkshakes. As for me, I gave them such a run for their money here. Forgetting my allergies for a brief moment here, I had them running around to find out what their food items were made out of (sad note people, if you have allergies, some of the items may not be for you). But in the end, they were able to accommodate me and my needs. As I munched away on my food while sitting in the sunlight I thought to myself, "Man, I really want to play some putt-putt." But that will have to wait for another day. *CASH ONLY

I like the old fashioned candy section: coconut patties, flying saucers, peppermint sticks, and more. The store has an impressive selection of types of candy. This location also has an ice cream shop. I recently found out that they ship their goods. I ordered the cherry cordials 3 days before Mother's Day and they arrived promptly and packaged well--even included free gift wrapping. My only complaint is the prices can be a little steep. However, I don't mind paying extra for homemade items, especially when the quality is consistently great like O'Shea's.

We visited in the evening for ice cream. My oh my, I have never seen a menu with so many options and flavors!!! Very impressed, and over overwhelmed ( in a good way!!). I really enjoyed reading some of the sundae optioned named for the Johnstown area - the JOHNSTOWN Flood, the inclined plane, etc. Once we decided on milkshakes, we placed our order (very polite staff). Wow, milkshakes were delicious and creamy! Generous portion and tasted great! This location ships chocolates, here's their website - osheascandies.com Excellent job O'Sheas! It's nice to see a local family business still providing a great product and service for so many years! PS - my mother was so happy to see Chocolate Marshmallow Flavored Milk Shakes - this is a flavor that's very hard to find! Thank you!! :)

When I say this place is unique you just have to visit. It's packed to the walls with inventory. I think they have more fishing gear than two Cabellas or Bass Pro shops combined. For sure the most selection of diverse fishing lures and equipment I have ever seen. My daughter suggested it when I said I wanted ice cream. It took me awhile just to decide to get our ice cream because I was busy looking at everything they to offer. There is so much inventory that you can't get down some isles without moving things out of the way. Now the Ice cream. They have probably fifty flavors. Okay maybe not quite that many but if you can't find what you want you don't want ice cream. Just go home. Lol. I wanted the grasshopper mint with chocolate but it must be so popular because they was out. So I settled for a double scoop of raspberry chocolate chunk and my daughter got a single scoop of play dough. Ice cream that is. Lol. And we got the pups a cup of vanilla. I mean what furry friend doesn't like a pup cup. It was really really good. I forgot to get a pic of my cone as my hands were kinda full. Did I mention you can order food to eat? Yep. They offer a menu of food. Great place and friendly staff. A must visit.

I had just made some cherry ice cream at home a week or so prior and it wasn't nearly as excellent, and I'm trying to figure out what sorcery they invoke as they churn this creamy ambrosia. I suspect xanthum gum and a dollop of flavoring, as this ice cream's raspberrosity exploded on the tongue in a firework of comestible delight. Whatever wizardry used by the ice cream company that they sell here, come here and try it - you won't be disappointed. It makes Brewster's, Baskin Robbins, and Cold Stone Creamery look like amateurs.
