C & C CREAMERY

Their ice cream was so creamy, smooth, and delicious! I got a malted coffee milkshake. To die for! My daughters got soft serves in sugar cones, and they were so good! Quick, friendly service despite the long lines. Worth the trip!

I ordered rocky road ice cream on a waffle cone with chocolate sprinkles and whipped cream, lady told me it would of had to be in a cup upside down with the cone so I said okay that’s fine, they gave me someone else’s order plus mine and I still didn’t get my whipped cream, AND, they didn’t go in order! everyone else before us that was a none person of color got theirs in the order they received but not us! the black ppl and on Juneteenth? I’m not coming back!

Product is always a 5....but service is a 3. Slowest ice cream shop consistently (and I worked at one for years). At one point, 8 people had ordered but where waiting for orders and nothing came out the window for 10 minutes. And some of them were just single scoops! They didn't seem understaffed as I saw at least 5 people in the back (and I think more). Just make sure you have time when you go.

A place of delicious yet sweltering despair. We arrived on a friday afternoon at 330 to find drive through lines around the store, blocking traffic on ridge. I decided to do the "right" thing and get out of the car (so as not to idle and cause unnecessary pollution) and wait in the in-person line. There was no shade for those waiting in line. Kids in my group resorted to fighting for space *behind a trash can* to find some semblance of shelter. Others in line were clearly uncomfortable as well, and were jockying for space in the tiny patch of shade from the store's pole-mounted sign. Compounding this was the place was *slow*. Perhaps they were short staffed, but what I observed looked really inefficient. Car line was moving faster than the in person line, which was just backwards. They're sitting in AC, we're being broiled alive by the sun's unrelenting barrage. The eating area is also unshaded. The ice cream itself *was delicious* but I was literally exhausted by the experience, as well as made late for the rest of my day because I hadn't budgeted an hour for the ordeal. Wild juxtaposition. Recommendations, immediate: shade the line area, shade the eating area. Tighten up operations. Our helper was jotting down our order on a sticky note, then transferring to their POS touch screen. Just input orders right into the POS. Recommendation, big picture: decide if you're a car business or a people business then redesign your lot accordingly. If you closed the drive through and focused on moderate parking and a larger *shaded* eating area, that could be one way to go. Otherwise go full bore on drive thru, and no parking and maximize space for those who want to eat there. In the end we had to walk to a nearby school yard to find shade, where we found other customer/refugees.

Sooooo good!!! Has to be the best ice cream spot in the city. Well worth the wait in the long lines. Raspberry Mango swirl 10/10. Customer service was great. Definitely returning!

Wonderful ice cream and a huge menu. Friendly and rapid service. Be warned that seating is outdoor only and limited. There is parking on site but no restrooms.

The ice cream and water ice was very good here! They have a lot of different options and flavors when it comes to their menu. We went with a large group, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The shakes were also good enough for a mention. Thanks to all the staff who were working at that time, they did a good job!

The staff here all deserve all the credit in the world for weathering incredibly long lines for hours at a time. Long time service industry member here, and I tip my hat to the crew here who always serve with a smile, and always keep cool under pressure. The flavors here are always awesome, and it serves as a great way to treat yourself at the end of a long work week

C&C hard ice cream may be one of the best in the city. I will make the trip out to roxborough for a hoagie from T&F and ice cream from here, I'll get a cone for the road and a pint to go.

Been trying to find a good ice cream spot nearby and randomly came across C&C Creamery. So glad I decided to stop by because I truly enjoyed this place. I always get super indecisive when choosing a flavor so I was happy to see that they offered an ice cream flight with your choice of (5) ice cream flavors for only $7.00. I really enjoyed the pineapple dole whip, banana pudding and black raspberry ice cream flavors--And the cheese pretzel was fresh and soft. I honestly don't have anything bad to say. The staff was nice and gave me a sample of a flavor I wanted to try, and the lines move quickly despite the length! Maybe get a few chairs and tables outside and more trash cans so people to throw things away; otherwise 10/10.

Awesome ice cream shop just outside of Philadelphia. Tons of flavors to choose from makes it hard to decide but the blueberry pie with pieces of flaky crust mixed in was delicious. And the portion sizes were humongous

This place seems to be super popular among the locals here. It's neat because there's a drive thru option which is perfect to stop by after strolling down Manayunk's Main Street. The service was a bit slow, but it was busy which is understandable. The dole whip was super good, and they have multiple flavors. My friend is gluten-free and they made sure they had a new package open for her to prevent any chance of cross contamination. Super nice crew!

Long line. Worth it. Went on a Monday night and waited about 40 mins. I got minty cookies and cream and a scoop of vanilla in pb cup. Both were so good. The vanilla soft serve was super creamy. There is a 10 dollar card minimum but it is easy to get to with add ons and a tip. Workers couldn't have been kinder with how much stress I assume they are under.

Ooooooo where to begin! The ice cream was delicious! I got the cheesecake oreo and you could tell they made it in house based off the cheesecake bites. The line itself was a tad stressful, since it's a wrap around line leading to two windows, entirely exposed outdoors (which was sad because it was raining). There also wasn't really any seating and the drive through line made being a pedestrian mildly stressful. But the ice cream flavor options, toppings, and creations were so wonderful that it was all well worth it! The hot fudge was also insanely good and thick (I hate when there's hot fudge that's basically chocolate syrup so this was incredible)

Ice cream is delicious and well worth the wait because sometimes the line is long. Delicious flavors, generous portions and very friendly staff.

Drove by this place on a Friday night, and I saw a long line. Obviously that meant it must be good so after dinner came back stopped got in the line. The line move quickly got to the front. Looked at the menu quite a few different options, and I just went with the standard ice cream.have a chocolate with cookies and cream, strawberry, cheesecake, and blueberry pie. Each one of the flavors were outstanding. Order a medium, and I got to say the portion here is very large and coming from the West Coast. The prices here were a bargain. If I'm ever back in Philly, I'll stop back again.

Yummy yummy! C&C is iconic in Roxborough! They have soft and hard ice cream, water ice, milkshakes and lots of other treats. Service was quick but it was a chilly day in September. The lines in the summer can be long! The staff is mostly young people who are very friendly! I had the chocolate/vanilla twist with chocolate jimmies. It was soo good. Nice and creamy with lots of jimmies.

I am a HUGE fan of custard and will choose it over icecream any day and this place absolutely slaps. If you're looking for a summer nostalgia feel with classic vibes, look no further! We got a selection of soft serves and hard (serves?) and were absolutely delighted in everything! It's lighter than your classic custard, but still hit the spot! Definitely check it out if you're ever in the area

Love stopping here for a scoop or two! Flavors are great, prices are reasonable, and it's all homemade (plus, they don't skimp on sprinkles!). Highly recommend the pumpkin spice cookie that has crushed ginger snaps in it. My favorite fall flavor!

Delicious!! Always a staple dessert spot when we are craving something sweet! Drive thru is very efficient even when the line is quite long in the summer. We will always be back!

Yum! Went with vanilla soft serve with butterfinger topping. Delicious! The soft serve is super creamy and light.

Can't go wrong with this creamery. Friendly service, good ice cream and pretty decent water ice. They service soft pretzels and even pup cups for your furry animals.

The ice cream is pretty cheap and its so good they have alot of flavors too. Its very nice to sit of the bench in the summer while eating icecream. Found myself on google maps next to the store

On the way there we passed a jogger. I thought damn I wish I had a body like that. Instead I'm driving to go get ice cream. They have a drive thru. Drive thrus make everything better. They also have a parking lot. My main concern with their primary competitor Tubby Robot is there is no where to stop. I tried banana for my first time. Banana in a waffle cone. I got a medium and it was huge. My wife got a malt milkshake. She seemed to really be enjoying it. She exclaimed "this is our new spot!" She spent the whole car ride back talking about how bad this was that it's so close and how fat she is going to be. IN OTHER WORDS WE WILL BE BACK OFTEN & ALOT.

Being going to this establishment for over 35 yrs. Service is always good and the ice cream is always creamy and delicious

I had finished a cheesesteak at Dalessandro's, and had already planned to stop at C & C Creamery for my dessert. It was my first visit to the Creamery, and I decided to get the large (a gigantic portion). I got a scoop of coffee and a scoop of chocolate. The ice cream is on par with the best. I'm somewhat spoiled as I'm from Youngstown and grew up on Handel's Frozen Custard. C & C was delicious, especially the coffee flavor! There's a drive through so there's no excuse for not stopping by when you're in the mood for a great scoop!

Woah! I've never seen a pretzel cone before but man did I enjoy it! I LOVE salty sweet combinations so it was cool to get that experience while eating ice cream. They give you super generous amounts of ice cream too which is nice! I got to try both their ice cream and their soft serve and enjoyed this treat in a hot day.

Been going here since I was a teen. Great homemade ice cream. If there's a line it's worth the wait. They never disappoint. .

Taste: I tried their chocolate hard ice cream, and liked it. It wasn't the best I've ever had, but their waffle cones are bomb. I also tried their lemon water ice at another time; that was also decent. Service: Fast and friendly. There's a $10 minimum for card transactions; if your order does not meet that amount, they will tack on a fee. This is pretty common for a Philly small business, though, as I've come to find out. Ambiance: No dining-in options, but there are a couple of benches on the side of the building, and a drive-thru option. Be warned: the lines can get SUPER long at popular times of the day/season.

Good water ice (my first ever). Good ice cream sundae. Gooood chocolate malted shake. Yum! Get there during off hours or else walk, motorcycle, horse, or Uber. Finding parking is a true challenge. Line takes a while. Nice kid at counter....friendly blonde dude.

Came here today because it was a 60+ degree day and I went for a walk at the park. I waited in the notoriously long line and when I was next to the window waiting for the large families with multiple orders, a lady came up from the side where there's usually a drive through and offered to take the person behind me's order. He paid and was walking out before I even was called to the window. I was so frustrated because I live far and just didn't understand why, but I put in my order of Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream and Resses Pieces and a pup cup. I walked to the car and realized I didn't get the right order, they gave me plain chocolate. I walked back up through the line to the window to ask if they were sure this was the right ice crew and they said yes. It's obviously Chocolate ice cream... no peanut butter cup and it tastes just like plain chocolate ice cream. If I was just gonna get plain Chocolate ice cream I would have gotten it anywhere instead of coming here. I will never ever ever come back again. Sad because this has so many summer memories.

This place is amazing. The soft serve is sooo creamy and pairs perfectly with the fruity, icey water ice. Definitely get the gelati. I've also tried the hard scoop ice cream (tasty but not as good as the soft serve) and the soft serve mixed with toppings. Nothing seems to beat the gelati though! That combination of the creamy soft serve with the fruity water ice is soooo good. The prices are really good for the portions you get too! The small hard scoop is 2 scoops and the medium is 3 scoops! It's a shame this place is only open during the summer/fall seasons.

TLDR: Great American-style ice cream for a reasonable price If you're looking to satisfy your sugar cravings with a few big scoops of homemade ice cream, this is the perfect place. While maybe not the best ice cream I've had, it certainly stands out as a delicious cold treat. Plus, the portions and price make it a quick spot to grab a cone any day of the week.

Heaven sent! The fact, that they have a drive thru service makes this even more spectacular. They say all the ice cream is made fresh and I definitely tell the difference. The strawberry cheesecake had real strawberries and I could taste/feel the actually chunks of Oreos. There was also a certain level of freshness during each bite. And yes I bite into my ice cream. If don't the mind the wait (in car or by foot) you will not be disappointed. I rarely test myself to such sweet treats but this here will be added to one of summer food go to spots moving forward.

Finally came here with my boyfriend after passing by many times and didn't get a chance to go in. The ice cream is good, but I definitely had better. It's a bit too sweet and not as creamy as I would like. We love the variety of selection. Overall a decent spot. Giving it 4 stars because 3 stars is too low.

They charged me for TWO milkshakes when I only bought ONE of them. I watched them spit in my food multiple times when I brought this up there for I will never come back.

I've had their ice cream a few times - it's good, as are their toppings. The flavors are pretty classic as a opposed to trendy. I'd like to try some of their other offerigns at some point (water ice, soft serve). Wish they offered ice coffee as well. The line does take a bit to get through, which can be a bummer if the sun is beating down on you or it's threatening rain.

I used to live superrrr close to this place in Roxborough and I got dessert here all the time! Definitely some of the best ice cream, frozen custard and water ice in town

This ice cream place is amazing. Very fresh and delicious. Right level of sweetness and richness.

Great classic ice cream, real milkshakes and malteds, house made ice cream sandwiches. Service is friendly and efficient.

I'm a super fan of C+C Creamery. I've had several different items from the menu. My go-to item is the Birthday Cake ice cream on a cone. The ice cream here has me consistently coming back - weekly. I truly believe C+C is the best ice cream in the city. The ice cream is delicious and made on the premises. The cost is low relative to many ice cream shops in the city. Other highlights of the menu include their fall favors, the pretzel cone, and the Dole pineapple whip. Orders under 10 dollars are cash-only. In the past, I have got gelatis with hard ice cream. Very enjoyable but ice cream is only placed on the top of the water ice. At night there is almost always a long line. It is well worth the wait. The line typically moves quickly. Plus, the staff is always pleasant. Unfortunately, C+C is not open all year - thus make ample visits while they are open. Pro-tip: C+C Creamery a short walk from Dalessandro's and an even shorter drive.

Excellent ice cream, ice cream cake for my birthday is a must. Awesome customer service staff is the best!

Five stars for this place because I come here all the time. It's a neighborhood classic, a ton of flavors, and different types of ice cream. You know exactly what you're getting each time. Family friendly, and there's a drive through! The staff are really nice too, a perfect summer spot. Highly recommend and will always return.

I've got a weakness for old-fashioned, homemade, ice cream shops. This particular ice cream shop has been around since 1955, and I've been coming here every summer for the past few years. It's a small, neighborhood gem tucked between Manayunk and Roxborough, but it's hard to miss in the summer, since the lines are usually long. On a rare and warm April night, the line was longer than usual, but the 30-minute wait was worth it. The list of flavors isn't too extensive, but there's enough offerings so that there's something for everyone. We ordered vanilla peanut butter cup, a vanilla & chocolate twist swirl on a waffle cone with sprinkles, a scoop of butter pecan and cherry vanilla on a waffle cone, and a small vanilla for the pup. The hard ice cream is very creamy and well-churned, and the waffle cones are fresh. The vanilla peanut butter cup was my favorite - and I'm generally not a huge peanut butter fan. I was excited to see that they offer Dole Pineapple Whip, which is such a rarity in the area, so I would love to come back and try this next time. I noticed that they have a good amount of Fall flavor offerings, but I would love to see a special additional menu with summer flavors using fresh fruit in season. They have a parking lot on the right of the building, but there is also street parking available.

We passed by C&C Creamery on the way to Dalessandro's. The drive-thru line and outdoor ordering line were super long for a Thursday evening around 7pm, so we let some time pass and checked back again after dinner. The crowd of customers had calmed down by then, so we pulled up to the drive-thru. There were employees coming up to the cars to place orders, which made the queuing process more efficient than I expected. I didn't order anything, but I tried the strawberry lemonade water ice. The only other water ice places I've tried in Philadelphia was John's, and admittedly I thought C&C Creamery's water ice was a little better. The strawberry lemonade flavor was undeniable! It was exactly what I wanted it to be and more. I also appreciated the texture of the water ice, which was easy to scoop. I look forward to trying other flavors and/or getting a gelati.

Amazing custard at prices that can't be beat. We finally got some of this soft serve custard now that they reopened for the season. Having driven by here so many times to get some Zestos Pizza we were kicking ourselves for not trying it last summer. We were not disappointed. Not sure what to get, we 3 opted for the soft served custard which was in vanilla, chocolate and orange favors or mixes. One person got a large vanilla chocolate mix in a to go cup, another got a small vanilla and orange in a cake cone and I got the same but in a waffle cone. Mine was HUGE for a small (see my picture)! The blend though tasted like the creamsicles I used to eat as a kid only better! All told together it was under $10. They have benches to the side to sit, some parking and a drive-thru. But I recommend giving yourself some time once the weather picks up; there was always a line last summer (and for good reason)! Next time: I may stick with a cup for size sake but add some jimmies.

Horrible customer service. There were two girl employees standing at drive through who never thought to tell me that drive through was closed. They made me wait at least 15 minutes while standing in front of my car and talking to each other before mentioning that it was closed. They said there was a sign but the sign was located in the parking lot very far from the entrance to the drive through. There were 4 other cars behind me so clearly the sign was in a bad location. When I asked why she never told me it was closed, she said "I thought you overheard me tell the other person." They then told me to park and get in line. I asked if I could have been served faster since I waited so long, but she insisted I just get at the back of the line while there were at least 20 people in line. She even admitted that she should've told me earlier but never even apologized or attempted to accommodate the bad service. Especially since I had my 4 year old son with me who was the one that wanted ice cream. I am so disappointed. I've been coming here for years, but they just lost a long time customer.

I used to live in this neighborhood and have sorely missed the C&C experience. I was in Roxborough last week after a 2 year hiatus. It was just about noon and knew I needed to swing by. I happened to get right into the drive thru as one of the first customers. I am usually a fan of the hand dipped (you really can't go wrong with any of them) but I needed something lighter and refreshing so I tried the dole whip swirls. So delicious! The staff are always friendly and welcoming, too, even when the line is wrapped & very long. I will always make a point to visit if they are open in the season!

This place is always busy for a reason! Homemade ice cream in numerous flavors as well as water ice, snacks. They have sugar, waffle and pretzel cones! My husband came for a milkshake and left with a large butter pecan ice cream in a waffle cone. Lol. I was unsure because there are so many choices! I ended up with a small scoop of coffee and vanilla peanut butter cup. Oh-emm-gee! The vanilla Pb cup was delicious! Usually pb cup is in chocolate ice cream, which you can get as well but the vanilla really makes the pb flavor stand out. Can you tell I love peanut butter?? Lol. The coffee was good also but I wish I had all the vanilla peanut butter instead. I also had to try the pretzel cone because this is Philly. The cone did really taste like a pretzel with a little saltiness to it along with a little sweet. On a return visit, I'm not sure if I would get another flavor. I may just be hooked on the vanilla pb cup! Of special note, they have low carb, no fat/no sugar hard chocolate and vanilla ice cream! Be prepared for a little wait in line. They also have a drive thru but will close it if the stand gets busy, which is most days. They also have a $10 minimum on credit cards so bring cash if you're not planning to spend that much.

Some of the best ice cream I've ever had served by some of the nicest people I've ever encountered. I did the drive through a few times and even though the line sometimes got long the employees weren't frantic or cutting corners. They were very nice and asked great follow up questions so we could have the best experience. They asked if we would like lids to go or if we would like our cone in a bag or on the side of our treats. I really appreciate how nice and enjoyable it was to interact with the employees. The ice cream is delicious and super creamy. It does not have that icy texture that ice creams can get. They have a variety of hard and soft ice cream flavors and a lot of toppings to chose from. Definitely a place to check out!

Pleasantly surprised by the dole whip selection - I miss Hawaii since much and they actually have it! They also have a pup cup for my Saint Bernard. I also miss Jersey City ice cream like Torico's and this came close. The lines are really long especially the drive-thru but it's definitely worth it if you love ice cream and I LOVE ice cream. Great friendly staff as well! We will visit again for sure!

One of my go to places for spur of the moment ice cream trip with my friends. I like that it is really close to my home tho I have to admit the flavors are not always the best. Their soft serve is pretty good it is usually what I go for. With some crushed peanuts on top and nom! I have tried their hard ice cream as well: love the cookies and cream and the coffee but the pistachio was a huge miss for me. Prices are more than fair and the staff is always friendly and can accommodate your wildest childhood desires (peanuts, chocolate sprinkles and whipped cream with a cherry on top? No problem.) Will be returning again soon.

I mean, seriously, the award goes to these guys. They're in it for the long haul because they've been around since I was a child, and they haven't changed one bit (well, they take cards now, too which is great!). But, as always, excellent service and the most delicious custard you can get, anywhere. Period.

Best quality for the buck! After couple hours of hiking around the park, this was a wonderful treat ;) Very low key but solid quality of ice cream! They were definitely NOT stingy with portions ! Ordered caramel topping and it was not the cheap watered down caramel drizzle, it was a melted candy quality, super yummy! My dogs also loved the vanilla soft serve :)

Best ice cream in NW Philly. Made on premises. Always helpful staff. We'll be back!!

This is my favorite ice cream in the Manayunk / Roxborough area. So many flavors and great variety to choose from. My favorite is the minty cookies and cream. Prices are very affordable and great portions! Their drive thru is very fast and efficient.

A small stand located in Manayunk with some of the best custard I have ever had. The menu is very large and there was an overwhelming amount of different toppings and flavors. I went with a large chocolate, vanilla swirl with rainbow sprinkles - classic! I would definitely recommend stopping at this place if you live in the area. It's a classic! I would recommend walking if all possible. There is a drive through at this location but when I was sitting eating my treat I noticed it moved slowly and kinda blocked all the parking spots. Seems like the drive through line also backs up into the street causing a little bit of a traffic jam.
