Justina A.

Really cute and small ice cream shop in the burbs! The worker scooping ice cream was really kind and let us sample multiple flavors :) I'm rating this place 4/5 stars because I thought the ice cream itself wasn't special. I have many friends that rave about Carminati, but nothing stood out to me. I tried the pumpkin flavor, which didn't taste much different from grocery store ice cream to me. I did really enjoy the texture of Carminati ice cream though! The ice cream is creamy and almost stretchy (if that makes sense).

The wonderful Carminati's in Keswick Village

You know warmer weather has arrived when thoughts turn to hitting up the nearby ice cream spots. Carminati's is a small independent gelateria in the Keswick Village section of Glenside. It is a hidden gem. Their housemade gelatos and sorbets are superb. I especially love their salted caramel gelato but on a recent visit I passed on that to order a Honeydew Melon sorbet. I had never tried that flavor before and I can only say it was a great choice because it makes for a fruity and tasty sorbetto. Carminati's is usually open from about Thursday to Sunday so if you're in the area on one of those days, seek it out. It is easy to drive right by as it is very small ... but def be on the lookout and you will be pleasantly rewarded when you find it.

Meet the owner Darin.

It's a Black-owned ice cream spot on Easton Road in Glenside. I didn't even realize it's been there…read morefor three years. It's on a metered street, but there's a small parking lot a couple doors down, which helps. The space is nice, and Leslie (one of the owners) was super friendly and engaging. I got a pralines and cream/vanilla sundae really good, but $12 caught me off guard. Next time I'd skip the hot topping since it melted the ice cream too fast. The milkshakes (mint chocolate chip and cookies & cream/cookie dough) were really good. They also have pretzels, pretzel pizza, cookies, and plan to add more items. They have outdoor seating and even pop out to block parties and events with popcorn machines, water ice and other items which is a nice touch. They also offer churro fries which I can't wait to try the next time. I believe they may have funnel cake fries, or something like that and ice cream sandwiches gelati. You can also get them on DoorDash and Uber eats although I don't know how you would get ice cream DoorDash and Uber eats, but I guess they haven't figured out. Overall, we enjoyed it and will definitely be back. Today the 4th of April I went back to try their water ice. I got the passion fruit mango. It cost me $7. I thought that was pretty high. I don't know what the going rate in the area is, but I will say this, I don't like Ritas anymore. Their water ice no soon as you get it, It melts. CJs water ice held up. It just melted just a little. It had great flavor. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I also ordered the funnel cake fries. They were so delicious and the cashier Brooklyn assisted me she was so polite and nice.

This is a new black owned business that popped up by my family Way! With this being ya know…read moreoutskirts of Philly we don't have as many water ice and pretzel type places. Ones that also sell ice cream? Leaving the liquor store across the street I believe I met the owner and he was supper nice! He guided me to his establishment that I didn't even know existed but now I'm glad that I do! They have sweets, soft pretzels and frosty treats. I loved that they had passion fruit water ice and a pizza pretzel. The place is super cute and the person who was ringing up was so friendly. Love this for Glenside and love this for I'm guessing CJ? Thanks for bringing this place to the area!
