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!

I'm not one to usually pick soft serve over regular hand scooped ice cream but here I am! Devler's…read moreis what i didn't know soft serve could be. It's creamy, sweet without being cloying, and you get SO much of it. There are tables but shade so just be mindful of that in summer. They also offer lots of normal ice cream but I've yet to try it because of the amazing soft serve. This is a key stop for me when I'm in Oakland.

Don't get me wrong, the ice cream is great, but if the children working there are rude, then that…read moreruins the whole experience. The girl who took my order could not and would not be polite, but closed the window in my face. Then when the orders are ready, they hand you your order with a smile, but no, for me they set it outside the window and slammed the window. I have never been treated so rudely. No other time that I went there was I treated like this. I don't tolerate disrespect so I won't be going back.

While we waited for someone to service us at the window, we encountered two women seated at a table and asked what they would recommend. One said they didn't know, they were waiting on their order, but did indicate they ordere the upside down banana split. They also offered up for us to be patient as there was only one person working this Sunday. Well, once their orders arrived, my girlfriend and I definitely opted for the same upside down banana split served up on a cup. It was HUGE, and, seriously, we could have (should have) ordered only one between us and shared. It only cost 5 dollars. With soft vanilla and chocolate ice cream, bananas, strawberries, pineapple, and whipped cream (i had them skip the cherry), it was very yummy. And, no, neither of us were able to finish though we gave our best effort.

I have always really liked their Tutter Sundaes. But tonight was a major disappointment. I gave my…read moreorder as always asking for a Trutle Sundae with whipped cream and a few extra cherries. The girl asked if I wanted peanuts on it. I explained Turtles had pecans. The sundae came and no cherries- when I said something she added them. It was easily at least one third smaller than it ever has been. I got in the car and no caramel!!!!!! This is the first time I have ever been disappointed.

My extended family were in Hollidaysburg for the afternoon for a family event, and after the event…read morewe decided to experience one of Hollidaysburg's older pastimes... frozen custard! Now, I am not from the area, so it was all a new experience to me, but this being the original and seeing pictures posted on the walls from when my father and his siblings were experiencing this area as teenagers definitely brought on some good feelings. Reading about the history of the place, I found some interesting things that I am going to be relating to some other relatives. My experience there was excellent. We all got some form of custard for the afternoon, and it all went down quite well. The staff handled us all coming in like a herd of buffalos with ease, and we all came out of there happy as clams. I will definitely be returning the next time I am in the area (doesn't happen very often, living in Florida and all). As for those relatives? Well, I am going to be recommending a visit to my cousin in Australia... turns out there is one overseas location in Canberra, Australia, where she happens to live, so that will be a fun "sharing" experience between us!

They have a pretty wide variety of offerings - sugar cones, waffle cones, sundaes, speciality sundaes, milkshakes, dole whip, and some kind of mixer like a blizzard. The ice cream was rich and creamy. We had a couple of speciality sundaes - #salty and bye bye miss American pie. Then a specialty milkshake with Oreos and gummy worms and a root beer float. Everything was large and delicious. There was a bit of a line when we got there, but service was fast. The parking lot is a bit small, but you can also park along the road. It's definitely worth the trip. They do take credit card, but you will pay a 3% fee - no fee for debit. The trailer is rather small, but it's mighty!
