    Cinnamon Ice Cream with GF cone
    Valerie C.

    New Leona's scoop shop in the heart of Lawrenceville! The shop is located within Lawrence Hall. It is the perfect size for a scoop shop. I'm so excited because the ice cream is 100% lactose free and made from 100% real dairy. The flavors are delicious and artisanal, rotating every now and then. I got the cinnamon scoop on a gluten free cone. It tasted exactly like cinnamon toast crunch cereal without the cereal!! Very impressed by the quality of ingredients. There are ice cream sandwiches available in the freezer and plenty of flavors to choose from. The staff is friendly and offer flavor samples! Pricing is high for ice cream. Currently one scoop is $6+, and additional scoops are $3. The GF cone was an extra fee as well. Parking can be difficult. Mostly paid or residential street parking available. Lawrence Hall is a chic space to hang out and grab a meal, drinks or dessert!! Looking forward to trying all the Hall has to offer. tldr Food 5/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance 4/5

    Love the Leona's scoop shop! The cookies are good and all, but tbh I was always here for the ice cream I'm a pumpkin girly, so I had to stop and pick up some of the seasonal pumpkin caramel flavor and it was out of this world! Definitely don't miss this fall flavor while it's available

    Leona's Ice Cream is incredible. They can be found in a variety of different places such as Giant Eagle Market Districts, Local Pittsburgh Restaurants, Breweries and Farmers Markets. The have a storefront inside of Lawrence Hall as well. They make all their ice cream with real dairy, but it is all lactose free. Known for their incredible combination of flavors with their ice cream cookies, but also thriving in the pint world and in their new, brick and mortar- go on in and grab a scoop! I am a sucker for their ice cream sandwiches- each is made with a giant ice cream slice in the middle and a creamy, crunchy cookie on either side. My favorite combo is the Strawberry Pretzel Salad. A pretzel cookie- sweet and salty with a vanilla ice cream with swirls of homemade strawberry compote... WOW! The owners are amazing and so friendly. They take a true passion in what they produce, and it really shows. I can't wait to check out all their new fall seasonal flavors soon!

    I was having a real "Pittsburgh Proud" moment at this ice cream spot. I loved reading about the…read morehistory of the business and looking through all of the vintage advertisements and memorabilia outside the shop. My first thought after visiting was that I should have come here sooner, and my second thought was already deciding what I want to order next time. I am already planning to order the peanut butter soft serve with warm fudge and a warm cookie after being inspired by their chocolate chip cookie sundae advertisement and will need to ask about what the strawberry shortcake situation is all about as well. For years, I watched the long lines outside and wondered what all the hype was about. Sometimes you don't get it until you "get it" - and now I get it. Fortunately for us, there was barely any line when we arrived even though it was a hot summer day. Even better, it's only about a one-hour walk from my house. The service was also fast and friendly and the employee who helped us was pleasant the whole time which added to the overall experience. I was especially impressed by the peanut butter soft serve. The flavor was rich and pronounced without compromising the smooth, creamy texture of the soft serve. It was everything I would want peanut butter soft serve ice cream to be. I was also surprised by how many soft-serve flavors they offer. Most places have only a few options, but there was plenty to choose from here. That said, it's hard for me to order anything other than the peanut butter soft serve now that I know how much I love it. One thing to know is that they do not offer free samples because the flavors are made to order. Something else to know is that the small sized cone held noticeably more ice cream than the small cup despite being the same price - so if you can I suggest the cone over the cup if you want more ice cream for the same price. I originally chose the cup because my hands weren't clean, but I later realized the cones come with a plastic protector around them anyway. All in all, this is one of those places that lives up to its reputation, and I highly recommend coming here if you are an ice cream aficionado.

    Came on a rainy Sunday and the line was not too long! It moved quickly and the workers were really…read morefast and efficient in trying to get everyone's order. I got the strawberry shortcake sundae and it was huge! I did not expect it to be so big so if you're looking to share something this would be it! It's a staple and delicious. I will be coming back to try to different flavors they got going on.
