The Best Restaurants In Chestnut Hill & Roxborough - Philadelphia - The Infatuation

"Bredenbeck's Bakery & Ice Cream Parlor Bredenbeck’s has been open in Chestnut Hill since 1889. So they existed before both World Wars, the radio, and the birth of the Phillie Phanatic. All of this experience means it’s a go-to for wedding cakes, buttery cupcakes, and a creamy scoop of strawberry ice cream. Unlike the bakery (that’s closed on Mondays), the ice cream shop is open seven days a week. And with more than 20 flavor options—ranging from peanut butter swirl to salted caramel pretzel—it’s an easy, laid back place to order one scoop or five and make an ice cream masterpiece." - candis mclean, alison kessler
