This place is awesome! The young people working there are always very nice and polite and patient with my grandparents. The serving sizes and prices are also top notch. A kid's is a normal small anywhere else. Also $5 for a hot fudge Sunday with any flavor is a crazy deal in 2026. They also have a ton of flavors, something for everyone. read more

3 B Ice Cream - Chocolate Fudge Brownie - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Generous serving size! My hubby and I got a kid's size cup of hard serve ice cream for about $4.25 (definitely enough for us to share). A size small would be $5 with two huge scoops of ice cream. We got the lemon blueberry flavor which was a little too tangy for me--it tasted like cinnamon. Would go back though to try a different flavor. Seemed very popular and had tables and benches to sit on outside read more

All their flavors are delicious. Their smalls are HUGE & only $5. If you don't want such a big serving, ask for a kid's size. Best ice cream spot around! read more

3 B Ice Cream - Lemon blueberry crunch - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

great ice cream, good location and friendly staff.I like the large variety of flavors.

Stopped by to enjoy some ice cream and was surprised to see they have new favors. After years of being opened they have new favors! I tried the gram cracker crunch, ice cream- amazing! Gram cracker flavored ice cream with graham cracker swirls and dark chocolate covered honeycomb pieces! The best part is that the servings are so big I can literally freeze the leftovers and a cup and eat it over three days! Seriously, I ordered a small and it was 4 over sized scoops! Talk about value! read more

We stopped here after eating at a place in Harrisburg for my daughter's birthday the portions are big and the prices were pretty decent I changed my small to kid size after I seen how big the small was , the lines were long but moved quickly. read more

Love the hand-dipped ice cream! There are so many flavors! Servers are friendly. Sizes are great. They have a small in adult size and child size. read more

We love the ice cream here! Perfect for after sports games, or when you wana satisfy that sweet craving! The service is fast with all the windows they have open! Love this place read more

Delish! Stopped by on a whim today, and I'm glad we did. They have many, many flavors of hand-dipped ice cream, as well as vanilla, chocolate, and twist in soft serve. The portions are huge for a very reasonable price. We got a large cup and single scoop for under $10. The ice cream was rich and creamy! The service was fast and efficient. There are some picnic tables around and a grassy hillside but otherwise nowhere to sit, so just be aware when you go--because you definitely should plan your visit! read more

Best ice cream in town! And the size!! Chocolate Carmel Heaven is exactly that. Every time I try somewhere else, we come back here read more

Ice cream is always the best...prices great, too! We have been going there for years and have never been disappointed!

I cannot say enough good things about 3B. The ice cream is fantastic. I love the huge selection they have of flavors, and toppings. The staff is always friendly, and gets orders completed quickly. Now onto what I have in my photo (an Italian hoagie with everything)....the subs are to die for. Hands down one of the best Italian subs I've ever had. Everything is fresh, and it hits the spot everytime. Also, this monster was only $11.32! I believe the price went up 50 cents or so from last year, but this is still the steal of the century. Go here for the ice cream, but don't forget about the sandwiches!! read more

3 B Ice Cream - An Italian hoagie with everything - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

The ice cream is delicious, and the portion sizes are large! There is also a very good selection to choose from!

We loved to get subs from 3b. Couldn't wait for them to open this year. But they are now cutting their sub rolls with a V on top and laying the meat inside the V. I guess that way the can give you less meat and cheese. Very disappointed and will no longer be purchasing subs from them. read more

ICE CREAM SUMMER This past summer and into early fall I visited 3B weekly - taste testing all of the flavors. My thoughts below on a scale of 1-5 with 5 at the top of the scale. OUTSTANDING - ranking=5 - Black Raspberry !!!! - Caramel Pretzel !!!! - Chocolate - smooth with a hint of cocoa taste, tastes like chocolate frosting - Chocolate Marshmallow - tastes like hot chocolate - Cinnamon Cookie !!!! - Coconut Almond Swirl - good mix of textures ... must like coconut texture - Coffee - not a coffee fan but very good with limited aftertaste - Moose Tracks !!!! - Peanut Butter (PB) !!!! - PB Supreme - vanilla I/C with chocolate and PB syrup and PB cup - Pumpkin - so creamy and right flavor balance - Rainbow Sherbet - creamy, refreshing and a nice sweet mix - Vanilla !!!! VERY GOOD - ranking=4 - Butter Brickle - sticky and good but a little too buttery, let it melt a little before eating it mixes better - Chocolate Almond - super chocolate flavor with nice size of almond chunks - Chocolate Chip - creamy vanilla with dark chocolate hips but needs higher chocolate chip ratio - Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough - dough is a 5, chocolate is a 3 as needs larger chunks - Chocolate Malt Chip - can taste the Whoppers with good amount of chips and right level of chocolate - Cookie Crumble - good ratio of cookie to ice cream - Lemon Blueberry Crunch - little less lemon needed - Mint Chocolate Chip - too minty - Sinfully Chocolate - rich with nice chocolate pieces MISSING SOMETHING - ranking=3 - Black Cherry - creamy vanilla, cherries have a good texture but way too light on taste - Butter Pecan - pecan taste is too burnt - Chocolate PB Cup - chocolatey to the max with heavy chunks of PB would be better if blended more - Graham Slam - missing something maybe marshmallow - Party Cake - mixed with brightly colored cake, fun to look at but way too sugary - Peaches and Creme - too much creme and not enough peaches - Strawberry - needs more flavor should be bits of strawberry and not large chunks - Strawberry Cheesecake - nice mix of vanilla and strawberry but very light on taste - Teaberry - nice and creamy texture but not my taste profile NOT FOR ME - ranking=2 - Cotton Candy - strawberry like ice cream with bits of cotton candy, sprinkles are too sweet DIDN'T RATE IT - Mocha Cookie - not a coffee fan and this one is too strong for me but cookies are great read more

3 B Ice Cream - Raspberry in foreground with lemon blueberry crumble in background. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Best chain is ice cream stands in Harrisburg area. The seasonal blueberry sundae is worth the drive. Lemon blueberry crunch is excellent and rainbow sorbet of lime, orange creamsicle, and raspberry is refreshing. Huge portion sizes as well read more

I've been coming to this location since I was a kid. I used to ride my bike here and reward myself with a dish of soft serve. Nowadays, I prefer the hand dipped ice cream. 3Bs offered a very large selection of flavors and toppings. I love the PB sundae and the almond joy ice cream. They have seasonal flavors and limited-run sundaes, too. Mm! I sometimes get a slushee bc they have the slush puppy kind, for which I have a weakness. They also have pretty good subs, sandwiches and soup. In the fall, we usually get a pork bbq sandwich and split a 2-scoop dish of hand dipped. The prices are reasonable and service is fast. There can be long lines, but it's always worth the wait. read more

One of the best local ice cream spots in the Harrisburg area! Great value for the amount they give you!

I am always in awe of all the different flavors but opt for the same-thing-every-time which is the Lemon-Blueberry crunch milkshake. A refreshing shake that doesn't bore me....EVER. Once you have acquired your deliciousness, the seating offerings area plentiful, though not as idyllic as their Halifax location. Pricing is pricing, 5 bucks for a shake, often down at least 20 bucks when we go here with the family. read more

The ice cream here is really good. I got a peanut butter sundae and they didn't skimp on the PB sauce!! Yum! They serve ice cream along with hot food here as well. I haven't tried their hot food, so I can't comment. My only complaint is the prices. Maybe people in the area are used to high ice cream prices, but coming from the northeast, we had a bunch of ice cream stands (good ones) that were very reasonably priced for what you got. I paid almost $10 for a large plain ice cream in a cup and a small peanut butter sundae. I wasn't impressed with portion sizes. And that didn't count the tip. read more

Saturday on the way back we found this little spot and immediately pulled in to taste a treat after being in the sunshine. Worth every penny- I had a banana split which was huge - vanilla icecream, raspberry and mocha crunch mmmmm ( raspberry was amazing ), the mocha crunch had Oreo cookie and cookie dough mixed inside. Outside benches to sit on and near a stream . 2000% would go again!!! read more

3 B Ice Cream - Yummy split - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

3B (Colonial Road location) is our go-to place for ice cream. Flavor selection is good, though both B and I have seen our favorites disappear from the menu over the years (Nutty Rainforest and Muddy Sneakers). 3B doesn't make its own ice cream, so menu is dependent on a good commercial brand, Turkey Hill or Gallagher's. Plenty of IC flavors to choose from, hard and soft serve, flavored cones and dishes. Banana split is a meal on its own. Highlights of their year IMO are seasonal sundaes, Warm Apple in Fall, Blueberry in Spring. I've heard their food other than ice cream - barbecue, sandwiches, etc - is good, but I've never had anything but IC. Service is excellent, usually crowded but lines go quickly. Portions are ample, kids size usually more than sufficient. Prices are competitive. Plenty of parking. No indoors, but picnic tables and grassy bank available for seating. read more

3 B Ice Cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Great ice cream shop! Choice of soft and hand scooped ice cream. Many choices and large portions. I had a small black cherry ice cream and it was scrumptious. The scoopers are so friendly! Plenty of parking here. My only recommendation is that you put some shade such as picnic tables with umbrellas, as it was a very hot day today and there was limited shade available. read more

3 B Ice Cream - Small ice cream! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

This place is absolutely amazing!!! Not only is their product 100% the absolute best I've ever had, all joking aside.. but they are almost always extremely helpful, patient, friendly and quick as can be, completing your order. I adore this facility and I give it no less than 5 stars, without question! read more

Good ice cream at a roadside stand with parking lot picnic tables. A quality local place with enormous portion sizes and a large and creative rotating roster of flavors. Zero ambiance. And "hand-dipped" just means hard serve ice cream; nothing is dipped in anything. read more

Best ice cream in the 717. They have great service. Friendly atmosphere. Recommend to everyone to visit.

The banana split is huge and definitely too much for one person but that doesn't stop me from trying. Teaberry is also a personal favorite and it's a refreshing treat on warmer days. If you're looking beyond ice cream, give the meatball sub a try. read more

HUGE portions. Pictured is cookie crumble kiddie size. The kiddie size with the sugar cone was $3.60. Great creamy ice cream but definitely hard to eat before it melts! Think about sharing if you aren't one for tons of ice cream. Vast flavor options, good menu of sundae toppings and other dishes. read more

3 B Ice Cream - Cookie crumble kiddie size - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

With a temperature approaching 100, it was nearly impossible to bypass this roadside creamery located right off Linglestown Road. Surprisingly, the line wasn't long. They have 2 windows with 2 long list of flavors including their NEW flavor Lemon Blueberry Crunch - how could I go wrong with this. Unless you're looking for a meal-sized portion, one scoop is plenty. As far as their prices, you can't beat them with a cold stone, paying only $5 for 2 enormous scoops in a waffle cone. I highly recommend 3 B ice cream. read more

This was a random ice cream stop on the way home from the zoo. When first arriving it was very empty for a Sunday afternoon, but we got there at the right time...become quite busy quick! I had gotten a small cookie n cream sundae, and let me tell you...the small is NOT very small! The hot fudge was all throughout the cup making each bite SO good. Other than being quite full, I have no complaints on this hand dipped ice cream, very good! read more

I have to admit.. I have a little bit of a bias when it comes to this place. I spent most of my childhood at this joint with many fond memories with friends and first dates. 3 B Ice Cream is one of the few places in my travels that has stayed consistent and true to what their all about. Their no frills, just a good selection of Ice Cream flavors, generous portion sizes and reasonable prices. Any time I'm home and its in season, I make a stop. This will never change. This staple of the community will forever have a place in my heart. For you chocolate lovers, death by chocolate is a must as well as the chocolate malt shakes. The Chocolate mint chip is also a Must! read more

Very generous portions and sooo so good. Very creamy. And the hot fudge was actually massaged into the bottom of the cup. Amazing! read more

Next tro Kokomos and Sheetz on Linglestown and Colonial road. It's pretty hard to pull into and there have always been traffic accidents from people trying to leave by turning left onto colonial. They have some of the best ice cream in the area. When I grew up I always enjoyed this one of the Peppermint Patty's that was out in west hanover. You just walk up and the waitress opens the little screen window and asks what you want. you forgot to look and youre thinking of how delicious all the different flavors are. but then as the line starts to form behind you you just randomly pick something. all the standard large and small Cones, dishes, cakes, waffles, and they only use TURKEY HILL brand ice cream and iced tea. They usually give you a big serving, and it is so enjoyable. Recently they started serving small sandwiches and pretzels and things like that. They have picknick tables which usually fill up fast, and a little trail behind there where you can go out and walk. People always park there and walk to Kokomo's though, so it's often very crowded. Moosetracks and Chocolate Mint Chip are my favorite flavors. Usually open late night in the spring through fall. They dont accpet credit cards. read more

How have I not reviewed this place? This modest ice cream shack is a staple in our summer life. They have so many hand dipped flavors and soft serve too. The portion sizes are HUGE. A kids size is MORE than enough for me. They make amazing sundaes and the Banana splits are HUGE and not at all expensive. I also noted that they serve food here. They have sandwiches and subs and I know nothing of them but the people in line next to me were all ordering subs and it looks like they're made to order so now I am intrigued. I'll have to come back and try the food and see if its worth making a meal out of the visit. read more

Was taking a trip to Hershey Park and one of the employees at the hotel I was staying in recommended this place. Decided to check it out and not only did it not disappoint but it was better than a majority of ice creams I have ever tasted! I tried Chocolate Marshmallow, Graham Slam and Cinnamon Cookie. All of them were amazing. The scoops are huge even for a small cup. My favorite was Graham slam because it was not overly sweet but tastes exactly like a Graham cracker. DEFINITELY WILL BE BACK!!! read more

We visited the Colonial Rd location tonight. They do take credit cards for payment. The portions are large but the prices are typical to other places I have visited. They serve hard and soft ice cream. There is a wide variety of hard ice cream favors. My large Sundae cost $5. Comes with whipped cream, nuts and a cherry. There aren't a lot of topping options. I had strawberry. I would recommend this place to anyone in the area. Those who I Traveled with enjoyed their selections as well. Lastly, the staff was friendly in their service. There will be long lines on warm nights. read more

Ridiculously delicious ice cream sums it up well. All their ice cream is homemade and I got the strawberry ice cream with huge frozen strawberries in them (see my attached photo) My partner in crime got the cookies and cream. It was also very good from the bites I snagged. The eating area is just the parking lot (couple of picnic benches) Two things to remember is that it is cash only and they are only open seasonally (spring through fall I believe). Tony's Money Saving Tip: Go during off peaks times to avoid lines and the crowded parking lot (time is money!). Also, the portions are huge so if you are with little kids order what they want and just finish it for them so you don't waste anything. If you are with a date order what she wants and share it-- not only money saving but romantic. read more

3 B Ice Cream - Frozen strawberry goodness - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Harrisburg, Pennsylvania

Truly one of the best ice cream places I have ever been too! They give such huge scoops! They have a wide variety of flavors! The first time I went I had 2 scoops in a cone of sinfully chocolate and cookie crumble. Even more basic flavors, like vanilla, tasted amazing. The ice cream was so good, we went back the next day to try other flavors. The prices are very cheap for the amount that you get. The employees were extremely nice. If it was closer to where I lived, I would definitely be a frequent customer here. The next time I am in this area, I will certainly come back! read more

Oh, 3Bs, how I love you. The best selection of ice creams. Though, lately I'm stuck on their s'mores sundae. A must try! Which is how I came to be obsessed with Graham Slam ice cream. While everyone associates this place with summer, they open in March. This location is not a sit down establishment. It's only walk up order windows. The lines in the summer months get very long, but move quickly and the delicious ice cream is worth the short wait. The prices are a little steep, but again. WORTH IT. read more
