Come along with me while I tell you about this little ice cream adventure Bambi and I had in the…read moreVillage of Lancaster. The village is so romantic with all the lights, and Bambi was riding along enjoying all the attention she got in her stroller while we made our way to the ice cream shop. It honestly felt like such a cute little Friday evening outing. This was my first time coming to Big Papa's Creamery, so I asked one of the employees, Joey, which flavors were the most popular and which one was his favorite. He recommended the Peanut Butter Cookie Monster, Signature classic peanut butter with hunks of cookie dough and Oreo piece. Joey was ind and helpful, and I really appreciated the recommendation. But I decided to go with the Cookie Dough. You can taste that this ice cream is homemade. The vanilla ice cream is creamy, rich, and incredibly smooth, with these tiny sugar crystals that add just a little bit of texture. It was absolutely divine. I'm not exaggerating when I say this might be the best ice cream I've ever had. I took my video... And then I started eating it. And I literally could not stop. The Cookie Dough was a ten out of ten for me. The ice cream itself was so good that it didn't need to be overloaded with mix-ins. The flavor and texture really stood on their own. One little boy was so excited when he found out that Bambi was 6, then he told me that his mom Was 37 The shop itself was so cute, too. Everything is pink, blue and adorable. There are pink and blue tables and long benches outside, and it would be such a fun spot for a first date, intimate birthday party, family outing, The service was excellent, the line moved quickly, and everyone was friendly. After Bambi had her little walk, we continued down the sidewalk through the Village of Lancaster. And then you have to listen to this. The live music was playing on an outdoor patio, and it had the best beachy, vacation-like vibes. The music, the lights, the people sitting outside, and the beautiful village atmosphere all came together so perfectly. For a little while, it honestly felt like I was on vacation. That's what made this visit so enjoyable. It wasn't just the ice cream. It was the entire experience. The homemade flavor. The adorable atmosphere. The friendly service. The outdoor seating. The beautiful Village of Lancaster location. The kids playing outside. Bambi getting to meet people. And the live music that made the whole evening feel so relaxing and fun. So if you're in the Village of Lancaster, I definitely recommend stopping by this ice cream shop. It's located at: 20 West Main Street,, Suite 600 Their hours are: 12pm - 10pm everyday As for me, the Cookie Dough was absolutely the right choice. Ten out of ten. Maybe the best ice cream I've ever had. And yes... I ate the whole thing. Absolutely no regrets. It was divine.

On a beautiful evening in August, after grabbing dinner in downtown Lancaster, I made sure to save…read moreroom for dessert. After walking around downtown for a bit, I saw Big Papa's Creamery. I remembered seeing them on the local news stations and had read they make their own ice cream, so I had to grab a couple scoops to try them out. What a delicious way to round out the day! I walked into around 8:30pm on a Wednesday to a bright and trendy interior with several tables and chairs, as well as a table that ran along the windows with stools to sit at. And if there wasn't a spot inside, there were tables and chairs outside in front of the shop as well. There was a line that wrapped near the entrance but it moved surprisingly quickly since there were only two young women scooping and cashing customers out. I had enough time to look over their flavors and narrow down the two that I wanted. The young woman who prepared my order was friendly and pleasant and did an excellent job scooping - My scoops were plenty big; they did not skimp on portions. What did I order? I went with a medium (two scoops) with the bottom scoop flavor being their Cookies & Cream and the top scoop flavor being their Salted Caramel Crunch (homemade crunch pieces folded into their signature salted caramel base), in a waffle cone. The ice cream lived up to the hype! It was so creamy and jam-packed with Oreo cookie pieces and crunchy caramel pieces. Both flavors were excellent, but if I had to pick one that I liked more, I'd say Cookies & Cream. The ice cream itself was like a cookies & cream base with HUGE Oreo cookie pieces rolled into it, the flavor was crazy good! The waffle cone tasted fresh and held both scoops with ease, worth the slight upcharge. For the high-quality ingredients, homemade flavors, and generous portion size, I felt the price I paid was reasonable. Big Papa's Creamery was an excellent experience! Pleasant staff, a happy & bright shop, and amazing homemade ice cream, I couldn't ask for more. I'm already thinking about what flavor I want to try next with my scoop of Cookies & Cream when I stroll through downtown Lancaster again.

It came with rice and salad with your choice of toppings and a ton of small sauces. All the sauces are delicious, especially the Tzatziki.The meats were tender with some crispy edges that gave a nice texture to each bite. I also ordered a tikka chicken sandwich with lemon pepper fries, a 4 pk of falafel with hummus, a mango Lassi and extra pita. I enjoyed it all. The chicken was literally pieces of thigh meat marinated and grilled with your choice of toppings and a special sauce. The chicken was extremely tender and flacorful. I've never had lemon pepper seasoning on my fries but i certainly will now. Yum. The falafel wasnt overly dry and had good flavor along with the hummus. The mango Lassi was tart yet sweet and helps you to digest everything! I will 100% order from here again!

My partner ordered for us saying it's going to be a great lunch, and it was. He tried this place before. The large option was a perfect size for two. It's one of those restaurants where the best way to order is through their website. Or, just look at what they offer and which combo fits your taste buds the best. It would speed up the order process as well (at least for me;). I am not someone who can evaluate Middle Eastern cuisine from extensive experience or frequent consumption, but you should definitely visit Papa's Halal Gyro. It's truly worth it. Then judge for yourself. Yes, the garlic sauce is very intense but delicious. Just don't have it before a business meeting or if you are planning to have a rendezvous soon after your meal. The best, find a partner who loves garlic as much as you do ;). Next time, I'll try White Home/Dill Sauce with just a splash of Mint Sauce, and maybe a little Garlic Sauce on the side.
