    I'm hard to impress. I grew up eating Page's so admittedly am an ice cream snob. While I still love Page's Dairy, it seems like the rest of the city does. The line is always extremely long and it isn't as close to us now that we've moved. We attempted Page's yesterday, a random Monday evening and the line was no less an hour wait which I just didn't have time for so we left without ice cream. I was talking to someone about it and they asked if I'd ever been the The Scoop. I'd never even heard of it! The stars aligned and we were able to sneak out this afternoon. I'm hard to impress and gosh was I impressed. The place was a fancy upscale version of Page's and just as delicious. The sundae creations were something I'd expect to find in Vegas. Fun, whimsical and delicious. There were so many options that it was hard to choose just 1. While there is some overlap in menu items - a Nancy B cookie sundae, a Blondie sundae, they really set themselves apart with their unique creations. Churros are my favorite food and I haven't been able to find a legit one in years. The deep fried Oreo sundae is brilliant as is the funnel cake. Such unique and fun combinations. The serving size was generous as were the toppings. The employees were kind and patient. The place was inviting and clean... easy to get to with plenty of parking. They also have a drive through which is SO convenient! What a great little secret spot. We found our new go-to.

    I almost fell over when I ordered a homemade ice cream sandwich made with Nancy B's cookies and it was $6.15 but it was GINORMOUS!!! I had to take it home and cut it up to share. The picture doesn't do it justice but it is hugeeee. To give you an idea we cut it into fours and all had a decent size piece. Warning they do have an expansive selection with lots of hard ice cream flavors, many specialty sundaes and the normal standbys. It's hard to decide! I personally can't wait to go back and try some of the specialties!

    Come get a cold sweet treat for dessert, or choose a baked sundae for a whole day's worth of calories. Their signature flavors tend to include some combination of chocolate-covered pretzels, a caramel stripe, and/or cookie dough or bits. They do sell 1 or 2 scoops in a cup or a cone, as well as classic frozen yogurt flavors, milkshakes, and ice cream sandwiches. Prices are reasonable but cash only; there is an ATM on the side of the building. A good amount of parking and tables with umbrellas up the hill. I'm looking forward to coming back but hope my menu options aren't too limited by the fact that I just want a little ice cream and not a tub.

    Great place for ice cream! They are known for their wide variety of sundaes, which range from an elaborate spaghetti and meatball looking dish to classic favorites. I ordered 2 scoops of their homemade ice cream: Mint Avalanche and Munchies. Both flavors were packed with taste and the ice cream was creamy and smooth! The mint was my favorite with crushed oreo pieces and chocolate chips within the smooth mint ice cream. The Munchies flavor was also very good and had vanilla ice cream filled with all your favorite junk food candies: m&ms, chocolate chips, peanuts and caramel. The price came to about $5 for my dish, but it was certainly worth it and they gave you large scoops. Definitely a cute and delicious ice cream option to check out. They even have a drive-thru if you don't have time to eat there.

    Hopped off a plane at PIT. Had a hunger pain. My first stop was for something sweet at my favorite neighborhood ice cream shop, the Scoop. Although I didn't grow up enjoying their sweet treats, I definitely have a copious amount of nostalgia when it comes to Scoops. Part of what taps into the nostalgia at Scoops is their decor. I love how the ice cream shop feels super classic. You feel like you're in a 60's movie singing tunes. The location is very easy to get to on a fairly busy road. There's ample parking and even a drive they so you can get you soft serve fix. There's another dairymart in town that gets as much attention as it gets long never ending lines. Nothing against that shop as I also love their ice cream, but Scoops just flat out has better soft serve. It's a thick creamy pour. Sweet without being overly so. Love it's fluffiness. Throw some sprinkles on top for an extra treat! Special shout out to the incredibly friendly worker who described herself as "the older gal on the crew." It made me giggle. The perfect illustration of their amazing customer service.

    Very cute ice cream we accidentally stumbled upon! I was in the mood for a soft serve cone with sprinkles and this was where Yelp took me. The shop had a really nice, large patio for you to enjoy your ice cream and a ton of different creations to choose from! Cash only but there is an ATM on site.

    I'm an ice cream lover. Equal opportunity. I don't care what you put in it, on it, or serve it in, I'm gonna love it. Ive never been blown away by options and toppings till my gang and I stumbled on the scoop on a hot July afternoon. Deep. Fried. Peanut. Butter. And. Jelly. Sandwich. (Yes, you read that right) The Elvis Presley is quite impressive. Peanut butter and jelly, fried, jelly and PB drizzle, and the best soft serve I've had in the Burgh. This thing was massive. Also, if you don't know Nancy B's, get on that. A Homestead tradition, these cookies out beyond anything that ever came out of my Grandmas kitchen. They serve them warmed in a multitude of different shake/blizzard things, sundaes and more. I feel like a fatass saying I foresee many more trips to The Scoop this summer, but I'm sure the extra hour in the gym will be worth it!! Happy Eating!

    Great daily food specials for lunch and dinner. Tasty meatloaf special is a great comfort dish…read more Homemade soups are really good. Good menu selection including the Turkey Bacon Club, and the Hot Roast Beef Sandwiches are my favorites . Bartenders are very friendly and accommodating.

No interest in midday drinking, we decided to pop around back into the little casual cafe (the bar area is out front). The tiny space has a handful of booths, a table, and 4 bar stools. It's not much to look at - no decorations, low ceiling tiles, and just super plain. But the place appeared clean, and the staff is so nice and attentive. I'd give them 4 stars for that! The food is a bit better than standard bar food. I ordered a fried chicken salad. The iceberg lettuce (ugh) was accompanied by a handful of cucumber slices, banana pepper rings, red onion, some cheese, and what I think was boneless, sliced chicken fingers. I opted against having fries in my salad. I also picked off the handful of cherry tomatoes. The dressing - balsamic vinaigrette- was good. My husband enjoyed his club sandwich on rye with American cheese. Apologies - forgot to take food pics!

    couldn't miss "Pittsburgh's most famous sandwich" while in town…read more They have a bunch of locations so it's pretty easily accessible. We walked about 10 min and change from our hotel to the strip district location. It is a small little place made up for by its attention grabbing wall art of famous and loved Pittsburgh figures. The menu is easy enough. Pick a protein (there are many options) to go on the sandwich which is the standard cole slaw, cheese, tomato, and fries tucked between two slices of thick, soft white bread. As a vegetarian, I was pleased to see a vegetarian option with both a cheese and an egg and cheese version. GF and I shared and it is not a bad sandwich to share bc the thing is massive. That isn't to say that I couldn't have eaten another half bc I absolutely could have. The thing is so large and busting with ingredients I wondered how I could fit it for a bite but where there's a will, there's a way. It was excellent. What a great combo of flavors and textures. I only wish there was more cheese. I do feel like with the cheese version there should be more than what is in the version with meat but call me crazy. I could eat that every day.

    Sat. Afternoon, line outside but we wanted to get to go so went in. Was jammed inside, no empty…read moreseats. Inside decently lit, just a tad dark. Sports on the TVs. Medium loudness, mainly from people's conversations. Went to bar area, little to right of entering and ordered. Asked for their special and the asked for the type of meat. Didn't know so they suggested I try pastrami and the capicola. Ordered and waited maybe 10-15min and they gave us our order in a big paper bag. It was heavy! Opened up one of the sandwiches to share and nicely the sandwich was cut in half already. Just need to tear the paper wrapper to separate. As you may know, sandwich has Cole slaw and fries on it, so it's thick. Preferred the capicola over the pastrami. Decent amount of meat on the sandwich but waaaayyy more fries than anything. The close slaw adds some crunch and tartness to a pretty mild sandwich. Overall, food was underwhelming. I'd stop by again but for some kielbasa or something ethnic. Otherwise I'd probably just try another nearby place to eat.

The turkey was loaded…read morewith good stuff - they add sweet pickles which I normally don't like but on those sandwiches it makes it really pop. We ordered the sandwich without dressing, in the future I'd get mayo or oil and vinegar. Good sandwich even dry. The slugger is meatball with crumbled hot sausage and banana peppers. Great sandwich! Spicy, flavorful, hot, with a shot of flavor every time there's a banana pepper bite. The star of the meal tho was the potato salad. I think I tasted pickle juice and mustard in the wet part of the salad, and they also added bacon. I kept picking at the potato salad even though I was stuffed, it's so good! I'm glad this place opened close, I'll be back for sure, and will def try out different sandwiches next time too. Oh yeah, Mancini's buns! Yum! But be careful, the soporific effect of these buns is not to be underestimated.
