The ice cream is absolutely delicious here, they have flavors I have never heard of. The place is very nice. I liked looking along the wall by the bathrooms about the story of the owner. Prices are reasonable. We will return again. I also liked the stoned seating areas outside, they even had firepits. read more

We took a 20 minute detour from our traveling route to visit this wonderful creamery. Such an impressive project! The young owners took an 1800s dilapidated building and turned it in to a lovely destination. The ice cream was amazing!! After tasting about 10 different kinds of ice cream, which our servers Jill & Ashley were glad to give us. I decided on pumpkin cheesecake and vanilla dream. It was divine. My husband had a mint chocolate chip shake that was delicious. Go!!! It's worth it!!! read more

We've heard a lot about this place, so it was nice to finally get to try it out! After enjoying a vanilla malt and some tastes of other people's cones, I think I understand why so many call this their favorite creamery - the flavors all tend towards the too sweet side IMO. But what truly will keep me from returning was how COLD they kept the store. A butcher could use it to store meat!! It's too bad because the booths are nice and quite comfortable. But if you're like me, you'll end up sitting on the wall outside instead. Pick a day that's not raining! read more

One of our go to places for homemade Ice cream!!! Love the variety of flavors, the staff is always helpful and friendly. Plus where else can you go once a year to have Ice Cream for Breakfast or a Christmas in July favorites!!! read more

Five stars across the board! The smell of ice cream hits you the second you open the door. The flavors are unique and aren't just simple mixes of a generic base with flavoring like other places. The price is pretty good considering the quality of what you're getting. Just wish there was more seating, and that we weren't hours away so we could try the cakes and cookie dough pizzas. read more

This is was highly rated on yelp so we stopped by when we were in the area. I can see why! Ice cream was so good and it was hard to narrow down what I wanted with the long list of flavors that they had. My niece got 3 scoops but couldn't finish it all. Plenty of places to sit outside and enjoy the weather or fit pits when they have them lit. It was a busy night when we stopped in by the employees were very helpful and didn't make any of us feel rushed. Will definitely come back again! read more

Found this driving through the area one evening. Huge selection of ice cream flavors. Very creative flavors. Nice seating outside with fire pits. The servers were young and helpful. Great waffle cones. read more

The cutest little ice cream place! Stopped in around 715 on a Thursday and the line was all the way to the door, but moved quickly. The time in line gives you an opportunity to decide which of the several delicious flavors available you want;) I had two scoops in a bowl and went with sea salt cookie crunch and one scoop of the dairy free coconut milk based peanut butter crunch. The dairy free one was honestly my favorite. It had so much more flavor than the sea salt cookie crunch. They were both good, don't get me wrong, but I would not hesitate to get the peanut butter crunch. My dad had the chocolate marshmallow ice cream in a malt shake. The marshmallow flavor really came through and they were not light with the malt flavor. He loved it. There are plenty of booths available for seating inside and several tables outside. They have men's and women's bathrooms on the way towards the exit. I'll definitely be back! I need to try all of the flavors. read more

What can I say? My wife and I are both suckers for great ice cream, and this location checks off all of the boxes, and then some. The different and unique flavors of ice cream they have are always incredible. The milk shakes and malts are to die for. Not literally, of course. The building itself is absolutely adorable, and the inside layout is very nice. The friendliness of the staff and the speed at which we can get in and out with our orders accurately made every time, keeps us returning. I think I know where I'll be heading after work now, since I've just talked myself into it... again! read more

The dining area was spotless, and that is always refreshing. However, if you want to eat outside, they have a few benches and tables to eat at, creating a very nice atmosphere. The ice cream was absolutely delicious but the service is what personally made my day! I came in with my three grandsons and my granddaughter. My one grandson had his heart set in Oreo Cookie IceCream, which you didn't have today!!! What! Oh no! The day was about to take a bad turn, however, your teammate turned my grandson's frown upside down! Basically He was upset that you did not have Oreo cookie ice cream, so she suggested vanilla and a side cup of some Oreo cookies and he was happy as can be! I really appreciated the recommendation, great job half pint! Keep up the good work read more

The BEST ice cream place. The owner is a magician when it comes to creative (but never weird) flavors. Regardless of season there is always a reason to go but then again, who needs a reason to get ice cream? Well nobody but she has flavors for Easter, Christmas in July and Shark Week. My personal favs are the fall flavors (caramel apple, cinnamon roll) in a pumpkin cone. Then there is the epic creation of her husband "Marry Me". The renovated school house makes a perfect destination to get your creamiest decadent dessert. Her special for the recent solar eclipse was really cool too. read more

THE best ice cream EVER! So many flavors to choose from and all are delicious! Sugar and dairy free options, as well!

Service: Patient and prompt. They are understanding with those that want to try a flavor. I was looking forward to trying their S'mores ice cream but they did not have any in stock though they did look in the back which I appreciate. Their ice cream and cones are amazing. The Cookie Monster is delicious and I would continue to buy every time I visit. The Sparkle Dust was neat and stood out to me. Overall great variety of ice cream and the atmosphere is great. Good for a simple date, trip with the family or to simply go and grab ice cream by yourself! Would recommend to everyone. read more

Amazing little place outside of Hanover their homemade black raspberry ice cream in a pretzel cone is absolutely fantastic

Selection was great and delicious but the ice cream didnt wow me great atmosphere great on hot day

The ice cream is very well made. The new facility is really nice. Suggest a different supplier for the plastic take out pints; currently the ones used crack easily and are very hard to open. read more

The ice cream is okay, seems a little light on the cream percentage. Better ice creams have higher fat content.

Ice cream is so amazing, absolutely love the atmosphere. Staff are kind and provide samples of all the different flavors which rotate quickly. read more

They have practically nothing for people who can't have dairy. Not even basic chocolate or vanilla! You'd think maybe they might have cookies for sale at the counter then, but no they don't have that either. Trash. read more

pretty good ice cream and quick staff! it's a nice ice cream place for a day out with a good atmosphere and a wide variety of choices.

You will never encounter a place that cares as much about ice cream (and the customer) as Half Pint Creamery! From simple flavors such as Vanilla and Chocolate, to their specialty limited time flavors (Sugar Cookie, Pumpkin Spice), ice cream lovers can find their flavor in the format that they love (cone, dish, milkshake). If you're looking to take your ice cream experience to the next level, I would recommend getting their signature sparkle dust added to a homemade cone (or dish) of your favorite flavor. Follow them on Facebook for special flavor updates and fun! read more

What's not to love? They have EVERYTHING! Honestly, the first time I went in I was so overwhelmed by all the delicious options that I panic ordered a vanilla ice cream. It was good, but with so many choices, not one of the top choices. I've gotten something new each time and never had a bad experience with them and never had a flavor I wouldn't get again. read more

Some of the best ice cream you will have hands down. They have many great flavors to choose from, I've had the apple pie, chocolate covered strawberry, chocolate cake batter, brownie batter, loopy, and more! If your looking for a diversity in ice cream flavors this is the place to go. And if you love waffle cones try theirs, I promise you won't be disappointed. The prices are pretty reasonable as well. So far there are 2 locations one in McSherrystown and the second in Gettysburg which is great if you have family or friends visiting, put this on the to-do list! They will be fans for life! A third location in New Oxford is coming and I can't wait! Adventurers and ice cream fans alike check out this place! read more
