We stopped into Sweet Ride Ice Cream in Reading as the final stop on a date night, and honestly…read more.. it was the perfect way to end the evening. The vibe immediately pulls you in, classic 1950s ice cream parlor energy with a fun, nostalgic feel. One of the employees was even dressed in a white shirt and black bow tie, which totally fit the theme and added to the experience. They have a huge variety of flavors and options, so there's something for everyone. We came specifically for their Valentine's Day ice cream flight, and it did not disappoint. The flight included: * Cupid's Milk & Cookies * Raspberry Cheesecake * Red Velvet * Chocolate Covered Strawberry Every flavor was excellent, but raspberry cheesecake was the standout favorite rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced. We also grabbed a kiddie size of white chocolate cranberry cheesecake, which was absolutely delicious and worth ordering on its own. Because it was freezing out (a rare win), we took advantage of that and grabbed two kiddie sizes to go for my mom, knowing they wouldn't melt on the way home. They also had ice cream pies stocked in the freezer, plus homemade waffle cones and waffle bowls, which smelled incredible. The only downside and this has nothing to do with Sweet Ride themselves was parking. With all the snow piled everywhere, we missed a sign indicating a bus stop zone right in front of the shop and ended up with a $50 parking ticket from the borough. Lesson learned: parking in the area can be tricky, so just be extra mindful of signage, especially in winter. That aside, this was a five-star experience across the board. Fantastic ice cream, fun atmosphere, and a great overall experience. We'll absolutely be back just with better parking awareness next time. Highly recommend if you're anywhere near Reading

First off, if you haven't been to West Reading, this area is a hidden Gem! Tons of great shops,…read morerestaurants and of course....Ice Cream! Sweet ride is serving up some great ice cream. Im not kidding there was about 40 flavors. They only charge 6.75 for a flight! We decided to get a flight with Raspberry Cheesecake, Hot Cocoa, Chocolate Marshmallow and Fluffernutter! The taste was incredible! Now what separates this place from the rest? Tons of seating, quick speed of service, the decor in here is incredible, neon signs, and tons of other merch to check out. They sell ice cream and Milkshakes for a year as gifts for others? How cool!

I came with two other friends, and we got the mango milk snow in a bowl. It was about $27ish after tax. The bowl was a good amount for 3 people. The flavor was good. I enjoyed how soft the milk snow was, and how it just melts in your mouth. It wasn't too sweet. The store itself was very warm, which is good for the cold weather. There were plenty of tables with more towards the back. It looks like a good place for people to study. I would come back for the bingsoo, and try the other stuff they have here. There are gelato, drinks, and snacks available as well.

One thing to note is you do have to make a purchase to sit in! Worth it though!

Everything in the sweet department is verrrrry sweet. The menu changes daily so only the regular cupcake flavors are listed online. So knowing that, choose wisely. The cupcakes have some seriously sweet icing that is almost taller than the cake. We tasted the caramel one and the chocolate one. The coconut scone and chocolate chip scone were very sweet and not scone like but tasty. The almond cranberry muffin was more of a cupcake and was replete with dried sweetened cranberries. All of these items were well executed just very sweet. So now that you know, don't order a sweet drink. Get a nice robust cup of coffee and enjoy the sweetness

So we did both to see what worked better. We ended up inside and they had our cookies available as soon as we walked in.

I was also disappointed that with the limited selections that two were not available.

It was bizarre from a customer's viewpoint watching them mostly walking around as if they didn't know what to do. And you see everything as it is a big open space, and customers just stand inside the door and wait; there is no place to sit while you wait, no tables or chairs. Absolutely no sense of urgency, the employees were like turtles ! It took WAY longer than I had anticipated to purchase 3 mini cookies. The person who had arrived before me was not very happy, but said she had been there before and it was not like that. The cookies were yummy though
