9 Best Ice Cream Shops in Philadelphia, PA
"If you’ve missed the cut off for doughnuts and chicken, then check out Sweet Box Cupcake Truck – often found at Philadelphia’s Love Park. Flavors include Red Velvet, Chocolate Ganache, PB&J, Hot Cocoa and more. Sweet Box’s chocolate chip cookie dough cupcake is created with an achingly wonderful glop of cookie dough wedged in the center; with flavors like this, it’s hardly surprising that Sweet Box Cupcakes has developed an avid following in Philly."
"For cupcakes piled high with swirls of pillowy icing, check out Sweet Box, which is posting a new menu each morning to Instagram and Facebook. Treat yourself to a single cupcake, or place an order for four, six, or 12. All boxes can be customized to contain the flavors of your choice (think chocolate peanut butter and strawberries and champagne)."
"Sweet Box in Center City is known for “The Jawn,” which is a cookie dough bar layered with birthday cake and cake batter buttercream. It’s monstrous, insanely rich, and will probably put you in a sugar coma for a few hours. But if you have a friend celebrating a birthday in quarantine, it’s exactly what you should be sending them."

"So, we found this place via yelp since it has quite some good reviews and we decided to stop by. Tbaar is in a shopping center at St. Vincent St., the same shopping center was China Gourmet resto and Oriental Market is located. The place is a bit small with limited seating, but it was not so hard to get seats since most customers come in here to order to-go drinks."

Choose from one of their previous elegant designs, or let Paul and Kathy craft for you a custom wedding cake that goes perfectly with your wedding day celebration and is a crowd-pleaser at the reception."
"Philadelphia photographer and Chinatown native Albert Lee grew up eating the flaky, custardy egg tarts at Saint Honore. They go particularly well with a steaming hot cup of Hong Kong milk tea, which Saint Honore sweetens with a hint of condensed milk. For a different take, try the baked Portuguese egg tart with its lovely burnt sugar top."
"The National Shrine of St. John Neumann is a Roman Catholic National shrine dedicated to St. John Neumann, the fourth Bishop of Philadelphia and the first American male to be canonized. There is also a small museum, which displays exhibits relating to the life of the saint."
"Soon after the church’s founding in 1768, one of its first pastors, George Duffield, defied British arrest by serving as chaplain to the First Continental Congress and joining Washington at Valley Forge. Thanks to Duffield’s loyalty and the support of patriots such as John Adams, Old Pine soon became known as the “Church of the Patriots.” More than 285 Revolutionary War soldiers are buried in the church’s graveyard. Today, it remains the only Presbyterian structure in Philadelphia dating back to Colonial and Revolutionary times."
"Sarcone's is a family-run bake shop known for old-school bread as well as pizza & sweet treats. One of the cities favorite places for authentic tomato pie served at room temperature, fresh bread, and cookies. Also known for their hard crusty Italian rolls, seeded or unseeded and reasonably priced."
"Tomato pie is a perfect food: It can be eaten at any time of the day, taken on any excursion near or far, and will almost always fill you up. It’s pizza, simplified. At Sarcone’s Bakery, you can get a $3 slice of tomato pie, alongside seeded Italian rolls and $5 pepperoni bread."
