a variety of ice creams
Paige G.

We went here in a Saturday night for the first time. I love supporting local creameries and it's really nice to find one open in the winter. This is located in a little strip mall among a few other restaurants. We walked inside and noticed a long line but didn't think anything of it. We ended up waiting over 35 minutes in line! I've never seen an ice cream store so slow. It was painful. 2 staff members are certainly not enough for the volume this place experiences. Making a sundae takes a lot of time and one person in front of us ordered 5 to go! We were getting really agitated. I don't like wasting time. The ice cream is really good and thankfully so since we had to wait so long for it. People in front of us wouldn't move along as the line kept going which made it hard to see all the ice cream flavors since they aren't posted on the wall. They also have gelato, milkshakes, bubble tea and even donuts. I thought the charge for different types of cones was expensive and overpriced. In the end I opted for the chocolate peanut butter and a scoop of the sweet cream with caramel and pretzels. The pretzels tasted stale and this flavor was a bit too sweet. The chocolate peanut butter was delicious. My friend had the cherry and was really good. Nice ice cream flavors but definitely don't want to wait that long for ice cream again.

I have never seen this spot before even though it's so close by because I don't come this way. But when I saw homemade ice cream, I knew I had to stop by. My friend and I both got two scoops (cow) of ice cream, though they also have gelato and sorbet. He got chocolate and I got white raspberry + lemon. The ice cream was absolutely delicious. The employee working the front was super kind and chatty. She clearly explained what was available and welcome me to test flavors (including the two I got plus the "heaven" flavor). It was also quite a lot of ice cream for a reasonable price. The place was pretty empty in the evening on the week day, but had some nice decorations. I'm going to consider this a hidden gem for now on. I must have missed it because I tend to look for ice cream as a late night treat, and the place closes at 9 pm.

Brownie batter with brownie bites on the bottom. I forgot the flavor on top...I believe it had Oreo and caramel in it

Crave creamery is my favorite ice cream shop in the Philly area! It has a wide selection of flavors and carries both gelato and ice cream. I've never had the gelato before because the ice cream is so good and I can never pass it up, but I'm sure the gelato would be delicious as well. They have great flavors and the ice cream is super creamy. They also have an assortment of fun cones. I got one with m&ms and it was okay. I would recommend going for the ice cream and trying one of their fun cones if you're interested, but pass on them otherwise.

Yes! Just back from Italy, craving excellent gelato so trying all the Philly places. This place hit the spot. Right on Baltimore Pike (off 476). Lots of parking. Small place that makes their own ice cream and gelato. Tried salted caramel and banana dulce de leche. Wow. Super smooth and creamy. As it should be! Perfect.

Party Cake icecream.  Look at those big pieces of cake!! Mmm

Great ice cream. They need better signage in Springfield so everybody can see their store!

It took a while after moving to Delco for me to find a water ice spot that I really enjoyed. There…read moreare many, but you have to find one that fits you like a glove. It's kind of like your favorite bar....there are many requirements and one size does not fit all. From the outside, places like this often get that label, but any true water ice fan knows that not all are made the same. While I have other places that I enjoy for cold desserts, whether they be custard, hard ice cream, gelato, or something else, for me, nothing can top CJ's for water ice. Maybe it's because of the variety of absolutely outrageously wonderful flavors, or that many of them have tiny little bits of fruit in them, or the icy yet creamy texture, or even that a kid's small is only a dollar and is way more than enough. It could be any one of these things or maybe all. There's even more I COULD be though too. It could be the upbeat Caribbean music playing from the windows every time I'm there, or the positive attitudes and honest opinions of everyone I've met working there. Or possibly the fact that they don't just have desserts and also have Jamaican beef patties, empanadas, and other awesome street-style foods to grab if you want something quick before inhaling that sweet sweet water ice. More than likely, and to be honest, I know it's all of these things combined that make CJ's a wonderful place beyond just their water ice. So make it a point to stop here and pick your favorite flavor, sit down and enjoy. You'll keep coming back time after time, sometimes having a beef patty probably, because why wouldn't you?

The Gelato was the best I have ever tasted! The lady working there was super sweet. It had some…read morebenches and wasn't a loud area. Sadly, CJ's only accepted CashApp and cash. I recommend going here whenever you are in the area.
