This is a great place to get ice cream. The first thing that caught my eye was the retro atmosphere with checkerboard floors and neon signs. The staff was also kind enough to suggest some of their home made flavors. Since I love ice cream cake, Justin served a soft serve vanilla with the crumble on top! I enjoyed my ice cream but even better in their outdoor seating they have available in the summer. I recommend going here if you’re ever in the area!

So much fun! Nostalgic ice cream parlor with cute outdoor seating area. Huge variety of ice cream flavors. Brought my granddaughter here for her first ice cream outing with us. Had a blast and she loved it! Great memories, fun atmosphere, yummy ice cream!

This place is fantastic! They make custom ice cream cakes and give the option for toppings in the center! Heath in the center is delicious- I recommend!

Very good ice cream at The Cup Bethlehem Dairy Store. We loved everything about this location including the nostalgic interior checkered floors with neon signs! The staff was very friendly with quick service. We had the Moose Track shake, the lemon Italian ice and vanilla ice cream. All were very very good! Would highly recommend this location which has been in the area for over 90 years!

Perfection. That’s what this place is. They have top tier ice cream. The best in the Lehigh valley. I go here all the time in the summer. I even stop by during the fall and winter. I love the seating in the front. They’re really fast with the whole process. And the employees are so nice. I will continue to go here for the rest of my life.

Yum yum yum, got a bing cherry shake for my friend and a small ice cream cup for myself. Pleasant young lady at the counter. Both were delicious. Numerous other concoctions to pick from. They have many ice cream flavors and its made on the premises.

Been coming here for more than 20 years. Banana splits never disappoint. I love the large twist in a cone! It’s great when their seasonal soft serve is available. So many great flavors!

They have so many flavors! They have yogurt and sugar free too! They have some flavors that have two great combos in one, such as: Cookie Monster, Mint Oreo, and Peanut Butter Cookie.

Great ice cream. They also have milk, butter, and eggs, so keep that in mind when the next winter storm comes and the grocery stores shelves are empty.They do a fantastic job of being covid conscience. Theres a red/green light outside to let you know when you can go inside. Once inside, someone takes your order, and you wait by a giant ice cream cone hanging from the ceiling. Its so pleasant being inside the store.Also, that means no inside seating. There are benches outside, plus a few tables and chairs under a tent.

Oldies yet still the best ice creamery in the Lehigh valley if not the entire country. Go alone or bring a friend or your entire crew you will not leave disappointed. But be aware the line may be long but the service is quick and sufficient. And the servers are on their game and they greet you with a smile.

I went here thinking it was going to be old school. I was right… but also pleasantly surprised at the HUGE selection of flavours and availability of both soft and hard ice cream. Some of the best peanut butter and chocolate ice cream I’ve had.

Best ice cream around! The lines are long but move quickly. It’s a nice family atmosphere with friendly people and good service. It’s a good value for the price.The servings are generous and flavors are delicious so bring your hungry self for a tasty treat! My favorite so far is maple walnut. I vow each time I go to try another flavor but so far I always choose that flavor. Yummy! I must try the blueberry cheesecake next time. Wish me luck! 😄

Best ice cream in town! Great flavors. They have a large variety to select from. Love trying the new seasonal flavors they come up with. They have gallons to take home along with their famous Chip-Wich ice cream sandwiches. A must stop for out-of-town visitors and locals alike.

Don’t let the line scare you, it goes quick! Such friendly staff and a crazy amount of flavors to choose from. Just moved here from out of state and so happy we found this place! Plus, if you’re like me and weirdly obsessed with bubble gum ice cream, this place is it!

Great ice cream! The best Ive tasted thus far in Pennsylvania. I gave 4 stars because a woman worker on Saturday with black hair was very rude and told us we couldnt walk in to the store we have to place an order online and then rolled her eyes. Mind you im with my children. No need to be rude or roll your eyes. Every other time I visited with my family the workers was always so pleasant. Besides the rude woman. This place is fabulous and they sell ice cream cakes

Great ice cream with lots of different flavors. One disadvantage is you cannot look around at the ice cream. Due to COVID you have to wait outside till a register opens and once you get in you have to stay at register.

I am obsessed with this ice cream shop! They have the best selection of homemade icecreams! I just bought an ice cream cake from here for my brothers birthday on Saturday October 31st! He loved it! They decorated it really nice and did a wonderful job making it look professional and delicious to eat! Everyone loved it! This place is my favorite place to buy ice cream! I don’t even bother going to the grocery store for ice cream because this is way better! I would highly recommend going to this store for ice cream, milkshakes, tubs of ice cream and especially ice cream cakes!

Abelist business. A friend of mine went to this establishment with a fully task trained service dog and was denied access. When attempting to educate and advocate for her rights as a disabled citizen was shut down and nit even listened too. You have been reported to the department of Justice for discrimination.

Friday night was my first time here, so I dont know how they operated pre-covid, however, the way they operate now is ridiculously smart!! The line looked like it was going to take forever, but moved surprisingly quick. The assembly line type of system they have going on inside, definitely works and keeps everyone 6 feet apart. I was shocked at how quickly I received my order, which consisted of waffles and ice cream, a CMP & an apple dumpling with ice cream! I waited no more than 4 minutes! Everything was supes amazing too!!There is also a lot of outdoor seating! I will absolutely be back!!

OMG This place AMAZES me every time I come here. As a Professional Reviewer, I am overwhelmed by the friendliness of the staff working here. When you first walk up from the parking lot you immediately see nostalgic milk bottles from days long gone. When Milk came in glass bottles by delivery and still does today by my friends at COWBELLE . they still deliver.But my focus is here this lovely business. When you walk thru the door every time you are greeted by a friendly hello and a smile . Fridges packed with dairy products and Ice cream to go.As a kid I grew up in Long Island and new jersey and did go to the 1964 New York Worlds Fair. There is a Big Sign behind the counter on the wall that reads 1964 New York Worlds Fair Belgian WafflesNow those of you that are still around and went to the Fair as I did when I was 14 at the time went to the Belgian Village and tried one.Nobody has ever replicated the Belgian waffle taste. All I got to say is Come here. The owner here must me a fan of the Fair. This place has a lot going for it. So much here but for one person you have to make a choice. Get off the couch and come to the Cup.
