Pepperoni pizza pretzel
Daisa J.

10 out of 10. I love this place and I'm so happy they're finally open for this season. Being a girl from Philly this is the closest I can get from a water ice without going back to Philly. I love the flavors of the water ice. I love this stuff and the pizza pretzel was so delicious.

Gelati with pistachio ice and chocolate and vanilla soft serve

Worth the brain freeze! I stopped in here last night after craving some soft serve ice cream. It's a take away spot with a very small interior. It seems to be family run (with who I assumed to be Mom, Dad, and son all working behind the counter? I could be wrong). I normally just get chocolate and vanilla swirl soft serve but I decided to try something new and got the gelati instead. It comes with your choice of ice and your choice of soft serve together in one cup. I got the size small with pistachio ice and chocolate and vanilla soft serve. It was about $6 for a vry generous portion size. I wasn't sure what to think of the pistachio ice but it really grew on me. It's not your typical pistachio flavor but it was still really yummy. The soft serve was sooo delicious as well. Even the vanilla was flavorful on it's own. I finished the whole thing! I'd probably just get soft serve next time since I'm such a fan but the whole thing was really yummy. I definitely plan to return!

On a rough day, nothing can soothe you like a sweet treat! As someone who grew up close to Philly... I LOVE Italian Ice or as we say waddahice! My love said: rough day? Let's go try Tia's and that we did. Great and friendly service. There were so many options, but I'm a firm believer that you have to check on the classics before anything else. These did not disappoint as we roamed the neighborhood with red mouths and big smiles. So excited to go back and try more flavors.

Lovely experience. Omg how do they have Jamaican meat patty's and Italian ice? One of the best combos. Both were amazing. The italian ice was very flavorful and did not melt too fast in this 100 degree weather. The Jamaican meat patty had the perfect consistency. I'm definitely coming back. This place is in the perfect spot. They are very friendly and the service was excellent. The decor was simple. There is a little bench in there if you would like to have a seat. And a bit more seating in the window. I'm always coming back here.

We have been enjoying a weekly treat at Tia's for a few months. The owners are great and are always friendly. Even when the line is long, it moves fast. I always get a gelati with mango, peach and tangerine Italian ice. It reminds me of an orange creamsicle. My partner mixes different flavors every week and I always taste his concoction. I've enjoyed every flavor except for pistachio and coconut. It's Hampden so parking is always interesting. We have never had to park extremely far but we usually go during the week.

Absolutely delicious! My daughter and I stopped by for a yummy treat on one of the hottest days of the summer and Tia's didn't disappoint. We will definitely return

This Italian ice is soooo good! It's so refreshing and flavorful. The unique flavors are wonderful! The prices are great too! Perfect for the warm weather!

The best Italian ice I've ever had! It was delicious! I had a blue raspberry ice with vanilla soft serve. They also serve pretzels and Jamaican beef Pattie's. The place is black owned and the customer service was amazing I can't wait to visit again. Rita's who?? Lol

LOVE IT!! I was thrilled to try Tia's after seeing them listed as a black-owned business on the Ave in Hampden. We stopped in one evening and the hardest thing was deciding what to get - Italian ice, soft serve, hard / scooped, banana boats.... everything looked amazing. We settled on a gelato (strawberry lemonade + vanilla softserve) and a scoop of strawberry icecream. We were fans of both! The smallest size was still plenty (they don't skimp!) and the prices were much better than going up to Ritas at the Rotunda! On top of all the options, it being tasty, and being locally owned --- they were wonderfully welcoming! The staff was super friendly and helpful with our questions. Love this place!

Summer is coming to an end but Tia has got the icy treats to appease your cravings. Also available are hot dogs and beef Pattie's.

What a great little find along the streets of Hampden. This is exactly what we were craving. On a nice summer day, Tia's will absolutely hit the spot! These Italian ices are hand scooped and I felt like the ratio of flavors were perfect. We both ordered mediums and the amount that they give you is phenomenal! I could barely finish my entire gelato. Their combinations are pretty unique. I wasn't sure how I was going to feel about the pistachio flavor but it did not disappoint at all. The gelato had a great consistency to it and was not overly sweet. It helped to balance out the tartness in the ice. Tia's doesn't just sell Italian ice, they also have food options as well. The perfect kind that will fit in your hands as you walk the streets exploring. I did not get the staffs name but they were extremely kind and you could see how happy they were to share this experience. Even with masks on, you could see the smile in their eyes. Will for sure be back. Support local!

I visited not long before closing, which I typically don't do, but my friend wanted something sweet after dinner. The service was great! I ordered the Charm City and I added ice cream to it. This is a great business to support. I will definitely be back!

This cute little Italian ice shop in Hampden, MD, is a refreshing visit. The peach ice tasted like real peaches--refreshing and not overly sweet. Perfect for enjoying while shopping around. The staff was super friendly and quick. Affordable and satisfying--definitely recommend!

Beef pattie - warm, crispy flaky crust with juicy well seasoned beef!! Delicious!

I've been searching all of Baltimore for this kind of Italian ice; I'm so happy I came across this place. It will be a summer staple!

I love a good hot dog, I don't care why they're made of, you can never make me hate hot dogs. And when I want a good hot dog that I know is gonna be amazing every time, I'm gonna get the pretzel dog. So here I was on a Saturday night and I smell that delicious pretzel dough, I hadn't eaten like all day so I got 3 pretzel dogs. I was full after 2 and just stashed the 3rd in my coat pocket because it was wrapped in foil and who's gonna know ?? Right, right. So I probably went to like 3 more bars after that. Got home, crashed. Woke up and was like "why is there a hot dog in my pocket?" And did I eat it? Yes I did and it was still delicious. Truly an ode to yet another fun night in fells. Not to mention the service is always friendly and fast. It's so convenient and it's right in the heart of the little square area. So it's always there if you need a little pick me up while hitting the bars or checking out some of the local shops, or even just sitting by the water and enjoying the weather. It's simple and it's yummy.

HOT DOG sold to you from friendly faces in the shack. What more could you want? I also want to try their lemonade and sweet pretzels on my next trip. But truly you're here for the DAWGS. Glizzy goodness with a view of the harbor for the low low price of $6. I am lucky to have friends who live in Fells Point, and getting to know this neighborhood has been a joy. Grab your treat, enjoy the views, take walk! Dreamy day in Fells.

I did the house dry rub and old bay dry rub. The house dry rub, to be honest, was bland and flavorless. The old bay seasoning was very good. I wish the wings had come with more. For $15 you get 8 total wings. It didn't feel like great value. What is great value and tastes great are the Bavarian pretzels as well as the buffalo chicken dip. You truly can't go wrong with either one. They have a robust drink menu. They are lacking a cider on tap but it is what it is. While this might not be the most glowing review on its surface, Bronson's gets 5 stars for its atmosphere and ability to accommodate a wide range of food and drink desires. I watched two World Cup games here and it was a fun, electric atmosphere.

I was in the patio with friends, in the corner, not bothering anyone -- not fighting, not yelling, not approaching strangers. Security walked up, said there was "a complaint," refused to say who it was from, refused to say what it was about, refused to let me talk to the manager, and refused to even let me back inside to grab my own card. My friends asked him to stop. He ignored them. This is the second time their security has unfairly targeted me. The first time I had just stepped outside to take a phone call. The same guard ran after me and started accusing me of stealing -- but couldn't say what was supposedly stolen or who had complained, because nobody actually had. I told him my laptop and jacket were inside at the bar and that all the bartenders know me. He eventually apologized once it became obvious he had nothing. Same guy, same pattern, different night. Also worth knowing: my friend and I had just ordered around $100 in food and drinks at the end. Nothing finished. No refund offered, no apology, no manager. If management thinks letting one guard humiliate paying customers in front of their friends is good for business, here's your feedback. Plenty of better pubs in Arlington that actually respect the people
