Scoop DeVille

Lots of awesome eateries on Walnut Street, but make sure you save room for dessert at Scoop DeVille! The staff is so warm and welcoming and help you navigate the hundreds of yummy sundae combinations you can create! Definitely recommend the Molten Lava with the freshest chunks of fudgy brownies and hot fudge sauce!!! And it’s just not Philly without a Rocky reference!!! Shout out to whoever named the Yo Adrian!!!

I need Baltimore ice cream shops to take extensive notes on the vegan options at this shop. I had mint ice cream that didn’t suck for the first time in over 10 years since I stopped being able to eat dairy. I almost wept.

Ice cream was delicious 😋 Service for the customers could've been better ( smiling faces, greeting upon arrival, etc. ) Tables and chairs were dirty, but the store was overall pretty clean. Fast service. Reasonable prices.

I can’t tell you what I ordered, because I have no idea what to call it, but I can say the employees were concerned I ate it all myself. Honestly though, how can you go to an ice cream shop where you can get your ice cream served to you on top of a “personal cheesecake” and not order that? I’m sure some people can go such places and order just a regular cone, but not me. I’m weak. The selection here is ridiculous, the options are numerous, and the names of the specials are well thought out. If I ever make it back to Philly I’ll be back at Scoop Deville.

As we were exploring the area we came across this ice cream shop. We were amazed to see so many different varieties of vegan ice creams and shakes. We tried Vegan Molten Choc Sundae. It was very nice and very filling. Will surely visit this place again and try their other flavors.

While working I decided since I kept staring at the storefront I figured why not go in...... I am so glad I did. There is so much to choose from here. It was beyond satisfying and taste amazing how they blend everything you suggested and your Sundae. They have so many other things to choose from as well. It was well worth it. The owner and staff was very friendly and accommodating as well. Such a pleasure.

I'm not big on ordering out, but this one night, I wanted something sweet. I saw Scoop Deville on Uber Eats. They had a special on their ice cream pie, buy one slice, get one free. My daughter and I couldn't wait to arrive. The pictures looked so good. Unfortunately, when our order got to us, it was freezer burnt. I'm extremely disappointed. It will definitely be a long time until I order out again. I highly recommend customers to purchase inside the store. If you order online, it's a chance it can arrive freezer burnt. Just a heads up.

I am consistently thrilled by the service here and this time is no exception. I ordered Doordash — a pretty large order because I was ordering for my employees (I’m a manager at a restaurant in West). I called to ask if they could write the flavors on the cups as I don’t know them by heart yet and didn’t want to get anyone’s order wrong. The person working the phones at about 6pm on Saturday, May 11 was very sweet and accommodated! Of course I let them know they can take their time since it’s a large order, all I wanted was the flavors written on the cups if possible, and they came through. Thank you so much, Scoop DeVille. Your attention to detail and your willingness to accommodate is amazing. You never do know why someone is making a certain request, maybe it’s trivial, maybe it’s crucial, so it means a lot to be met with a genuine willingness to help. I wish I had gotten this employee’s name, but Scoop should be able to figure it out based on scheduling. To that employee, and to Scoop DeVille, I say— thank you!!!! You made mine and my employees’ nights. Not only that but the shakes were absolutely wonderful. Glowing reviews from all of my staff :) If you’re looking for amazing ice cream with a very sweet staff, look no further than Scoop DeVille Midtown!!!!!

Soooo many flavors! You're able to get lava cakes and Sunday cone bowls. Very good! Highly recommend swinging through.

FOOD I ordered a medium Fightin's, a cheesecake-based ice cream. It was creamy but quite sweet, so it'll definitely fulfill your sweet tooth! They offer a variety of other specialty flavors, and you can even make your own by selecting your own mix-ins. SERVICE Jefferson students (and employees as well, I believe) get an automatic 20-25% off when showing your ID. The staff are kind and friendly. AMBIANCE There are some seats and tables available inside the store (around 4-5 tables for two). PARKING Paid street parking is available at a limited capacity. Parking garages are also nearby.

I'm sure it's good. i'm sure people love it. i'm sure it's a religious experience. But when I asked if I could taste the vanilla you'd think I asked if they minded if I licked their face. In summary: No.

We visited on a Thursday night and were surprised by how busy they were. That's a testament to the quality of their product and service, I imagine. They were efficient and we got our order pretty quickly. The restaurant itself was clean and comfortable and the employees were friendly.

Adorable tiny ice cream and smoothie joint. Immediately greeted by employees. Love the pink glittery retro chairs and pink wall bench. Both small smoothies we ordered are delicious. 14$ usd before tip. Only reason for not giving 5 stars. Was informed they couldn't take a 100$ bill even when offering to get a 50$ gift card with part (ensuring we'd return to use it) so don't bring cash over $20 I guess. Otherwise excellent Free wifi is available.

Picked up some dessert from here our first night in Philly. Was delicious. My hubs ran in so I can't really say anything else except I enjoyed it.

Amazing service and no line on this Monday night! Very reasonable treat after a delicious meal.

My husband and I wanted late night ice cream and this place did not disappoint. In fact the only disappointment was we were only visiting Philly and can't return to try more things on this menu. My s'mores milk shake was absolutely Devine! We DoorDashed our items. They came right on time and the milkshake had a sealed cover so it arrived with no mess. We wish we lived closer so we could return often!

We went here with low expectations because we were honestly turned off by the marketing and what we suspected was lower quality -- I will almost always opt for dessert places with more of an obvious personal touch and small businessy feel to them. But do not be fooled, we really enjoyed it here. The menu is surprisingly expansive and unique, and the desserts are high quality. My expectations were greatly surpassed and I will be returning! Edit after business owner reply: We were clearly led astray about scoop deville- the marketing for whatever reason gave off to our group the impression it was more corporate in nature and therefore potentially dubious quality, which was obviously incorrect. I continue to be impressed by the service and attention to detail here, in addition to the amazing ice cream creations. Will be coming back!! 5/5.

This place is a must. They have such unique flavors and the ice cream itself is not icy at al and super creamy. It's very decadent and the cone is a must. It's sweet without being overpowering with sugar.

Bad service. They never even made my order. I sat waiting for 30 minutes before I decided to ask about my order. They were busy with delivery orders, so I thought maybe I'd get my order after that died down. Then there were no other customers in there besides myself, and I still did not get my order. When I saw them start to make the order of a parent and two kids who came in after I had been in there for 30 minutes, I decided to go up to ask about the status of my order. The ?manager ignored me, so an employee asked another employee if she had made it. She said she had no idea about it. I shouldn't have to encourage people to make my order. They also have an offer for a free cookie if you fill out their survey. However, in order to get the cookie, you have to order first, before you've experienced their customer service. If it's bad, you can't revise your survey. So it doesn't make sense to fill out the survey before ordering, if the store actually cares about improving their service. I likely won't return here. Edit: to answer the business owner's question about the sign for the survey, it's placed near the entrance, where people are more likely to fill it out first before even reaching the counter to order. It's assumed that you have to show that you took the survey at the time of ordering, in order to receive the cookie with your order. If you want people to fill out the survey after trying the product, then you could place the sign next to the register, and have the sign say that you want people to fill out the survey AFTER or near the end of their visit, after which they can come back up to redeem for the cookie. This would likely result in more accurate survey results for the store. Hope that explanation makes things clearer. My visit occurred on 12/16, and the things I ordered are in my review.

This place has central location and was open late at night, but thats just about it; you can rarely go so wrong with ice cream, but this place manages it. They got my order wrong, made no offer to fix it and claimed that they had it down correct (no, I did not order gummy bears or M&Ms in my chocolate ice cream, but there they were).

This place is craaaaaaazy. First there are the 8 menus filled to the brim with both possible combinations. After you realize that no matter what you order, it's going to be a sweet, gooey, delicious mess anyway. Just dive in and order what everyone else is ordering even if you can't read the menu in time to make a complete decision. Great spot! I don't know if the ice cream layered with fudge layered with ice cream works unless it's frozen solid, but they sure do give it a damn good try! Def worth at least one attempt!!

Delicious but pricey. Long lines and adequate service. ZERO parking as this is downtown, but if you're in the area definitely check this place out.

The ice cream was one of the best ice creams I've ever had!! The ice cream was super creamy and full of rich flavor and so smooth. I am not sure with the yelp promotion thing why I had hard time with that so I guess you guys should look into that. They still honored the yelp promotion so that was nice of him. Other than that, I'd definitely visit back.

It was my first time trying Scoop Deville and I loved it! I'm glad I stumbled upon this place and decided to give it a try. I got the cookie monster ice cream which was creamy and yummy! I would get the ice cream again and again. Other items I got were the oreo cookie and the hot chocolate with oreo pieces and whipped cream. The cookie was hot and soft and the hot chocolate was flavorful. The oreo made the taste even more delicious! The service was great. Everyone was nice and the desserts came out at a reasonable time.

Overall, disappointing. I have never really had a bad ice cream experience before--even fast food restaurants can do a decent soft serve. But with this place, almost everything that could be wrong was wrong. I wanted to sample the cookie batter ice cream before buying since I was worried it might be too sweet. Instead of saying they don't offer samples, the employees told me I had to ask the manager, who promptly said no. This indicates to me that the employees get a lot of requests and don't want to deal with customers being upset about it. From what I read, they stopped during the pandemic and never re-started. With how complicated the menu is and the high price of the ice cream, a sample or two would help ensure customers are satisfied. We ended up ordering a s'moreo specialty without fluff and a mango strawberry dole whip. The manager asked me if I wanted a cup or cone, but he neglected to say there was an up-charge for the cone. Many ice cream places offer a cone or a cup option for free, but when an establishment deviates from that and up-sells, they should make that clear. When I got the s'moreo, it had fluff, and it came sickeningly sweet with all the different mix-in's pulverized together, rather than, ya know, mixed. This process was never clearly explained, and after the fact, the management tried to say that they are creating new ice cream flavors, and if that's their business model, fine--just explain that upfront. I gladly would have gone somewhere else or ordered a sundae had I known that their approach to creating new flavors was a blender. I cannot stress this enough--the sugar levels are off the chart. If they're truly creating new flavors, they should be able to control the sweetness and not have ice cream that tastes like processed candy. The strawberry mango dole whip was worse than the ice cream. It just tasted like syrup, and even the cup was sticky. The employee, at least, was kind and replaced my ice cream, but we didn't want to make them replace the milkshake since it was what we ordered--it was just awful. This was the most processed thing we could have had. It was just sugary frozen syrup without any flavor nuance. Also, as soon as I paid with my credit card, I got a text message from the store without ever giving them my number. The texts informed me that I was automatically entered into the loyalty program and that felt horribly invasive. Individual establishments who use Square choose whether or not they spam everyone who pays with a credit card. Don't even get me started on the decor. The loud colors, complicated menu, and bright lights have no stylistic coherence, and are generally uninviting. They're just a sensory assault. It looks like Barbie crashed her pink corvette into a gum ball machine while on an LSD bender. Maybe they're trying to appeal to a child audience, but then why be open at 11pm? If you want overly sweet ice cream that tastes like processed candy, accompanied by invasive texts, and a complicated menu, this is your place, but if you want quality ice cream, go elsewhere--anywhere else.

Visiting Philly over the New Year's weekend and no matter where we went, three evenings in a row ended up with the purchase of the Flinstones. Take vanilla soft serve, blend in some fruity pebbles cereal and sugar cookie then serve in a waffle cone. It comes with marshmallow fluff but I skipped that - so I could cut calories ya know? Awesome name and a lot of amazing combo options but once I found perfection it was hard to stray no matter how enticing the rest of the menu was. I would give this 5 stars on taste but 4 overall because there was an up-charge on waffle cones which seemed a little odd.

I'm not sure how, but they've discovered a way to serve warm ice cream. There's junk all over the place in the customer area. The ambiance feels like you're at a flea market where they are selling ice cream. I also enjoyed the club music at 3pm on a Tuesday.

Me and wife love going to Scoop Deville whenever we are in Philly. The ice cream is always fresh and service is good.

This place is amazing and has multiple vegan options. I got the vegan vanilla soft serve base with Golden Grahams, Oreos, and vegan cookie dough. It's all blended in and is absolutely delicious. I can't wait to come back.

my friend, janel, spontaneously asked me to join her for a walk to center city. she was going to get her eyebrows done. i was super duper stressed. it was the weekend before finals week, and i had to finish my design 3 project, write an eight-page paper for art history, and study matrices for math 101. despite my great list of things to do, i said yes! i was feeling really frustrated, and i was in a bad mindset for doing work. on our walk back from janel's brow appointment, we saw scoop deville! we had never gone inside, but we wanted to try it out. it was hot outside, and we wanted a sweet, cold treat! we decided we would share an icecream. we tried out the the smores brownie sundae. it was really good! we quite enjoyed it. the serving size was pretty big, so it was perfect for the two of us to share. the only thing was that it got insanely sweet. we were dying, and would not have made it alive without purchasing water from them. additionally, the brownie was stuck to the bottom of the dish, so it was difficult to scoop out and eat. other than that, the sundae was really awesome! while we ate the ice cream, we spilled tea, talked about our friends, and planned out what we would do when we flew back home for the summer. the atmosphere is nice! super cute. it was just a little cramped, and difficult to wait in line/ grab a seat without bumping into people. I'm really happy i went on the walk, and ate here with janel. it was the perfect break i needed. when i got back from the walk, i hustled and got my eight page-paper done, as well as painted my design final. i was super productive.

They brung it! I love the vegan options here and the food items from The Cheezy Vegan! The staff was friendly and the ambiance is cute. I got my friend a gift card from here for the holidays and he was also wowed!

Hands down best ice cream I've ever had in the states. It wasn't too busy so we received our orders very quickly. The store was clean, and everyone was very friendly. The ice cream was INCREDIBLE. Maybe I was just really craving it, but it hit the spot. My partner got the "Flintstones" and I the "Smoreo." Would absolutely visit again!!

I distinctly remember exploring the Scoop Deville by Rittenhouse Square when I was young. It was every kid's fantasy, but I never got to try the ice cream until a couple of weeks ago after a show at Kimmel Center. Unfortunately, as an adult, I'm disappointed by the ice cream. It's not bad, but I probably wouldn't choose it over the many other similarly priced options in Philly unless I really wanted mix-ins. And, even though the storefront is still colorful, bright, and fun, the service is not. The employees when I visited were very "over it." It felt like they were letting their impatience (even though there were only two parties in the store who needed to be served) show so that people would order faster, which is a hard thing to do at a place where the main gimmick is an abundance of options.

great service and lots of vegan options! friendly staff and great vibe inside! i'll definitely be returning!

My reviews are always based on finding the best places that fit into a specific category. I have reviewed multiple ice cream places and I will be referencing those other ice cream places in the Philadelphia area and giving recommendations to avoid bad quality so you don't have to waste your time and money. If you look at the picture, that is technically a "medium" and the price was 10 dollars total for the chocolate dipped cone. This was called the PB cookie crunch. Order a similar thing at Van Leeuwen (PB Brownie) and you will have twice the ice cream, and 5 times the quality. They are trying to sell "interesting" flavors, which van leeuwen simply is better at. They handed me a puddle in a cone and the experience was more stressful then enjoyable. I had to frantically swallow it whole to avoid it getting everywhere. The flavor was also extremely bland and was basically like a tub of super market Breyers left out half melted. I heard from locals that this was a great place. If you have the feintest idea of what ice cream should be, you would know what a waste of money this is. If you want an incredible waffle cone with premium innovative flavors, go to Van Leeuwen. If you want simplicity and a delightful experience go to Gran Cafe La'Aquila for gelato. If you want the best soft serve in center city 1-900-ICE-CREAM is the way to go. What makes them even more criminal is the fact that they don't let you try any of their flavors. How could you do that when all of your competitors allow you to try flavors? In conclusion... I am bloated, sticky and sad. I posted a screenshot of the owners comment I will be responding to. This is by far the worst ice cream i have ever had, no people did not throw the ice cream at me. It gets a 1 star mainly on the quality of the ice cream. I got an ice cream cake around that time which was over priced but meh. Not enough to bump you up. Other than that I have lived in the area for two years and have never been back. I am about to move and wanted to try one more time to give your place the benefit of the doubt...and was even more disappointed the second (yes only second) time. The ice cream that was served to me was a bland puddle. In my review I mentioned multiple other local ice cream locations which I HAVE frequented in my time here...not just Van Leeuwen. Pretty much any other ice cream location in Philly is better. I've been looking at responses to other poor reviews, not just mine, and these hostile snap backs taste almost as bad as the ice cream...rather than taking criticism graciously and trying to improve, this company seems to have an entitled attitude and an answer to everything. How unprofessional.. what type of customer service is that? This only reinforces my alert to steer clear...

Hey y'all, weather is warming up! And you know what that means! Ice cream! Scoop Deville was such a nice little surprise for me! Thursday (today) around 3:30 I was heading for the Patco from the Italian Market, and this place caught my eye as I was passing by with its splash-of-pink sign. I decided to treat myself before taking a rush hour train home and dipped in here for a quick, single scoop of birthday cake ice cream. Very glad I did! *The employees (two men) were super on top of everything, working really efficiently with each other and taking time to immediately greet everyone who walked in. So the customer service was two thumbs up. *The ice cream was creamy, thick, authentic. I savored the hell out of it on this sunny, 71° Philadelphia afternoon! It really hit the spot. I sat inside, and it's a pretty small spot, but there's a couple of outdoor tables. Though I played it safe today, anyone who wants to take a fun little "ice cream adventure" (maybe with the kids? Or a date day?) should pop in here. They make shakes and special sundaes (one based off Girl Scout Samoa cookies if that's your thing!), and they have desserts ranging from cookies to cupcakes, to pie, water ice, personal cakes, and more. Rethink Coldstone and try Scoop Deville instead!

There's so many options for crazy insane fun flavors. There's so much to pick from and you can create and customize it your own way. There's also ice cream cakes! I love the good old cookie monster which is the blue ice cream with oreos... only issue I'm walking around with blue teeth, tongue, and gum. Mint madness is really really good too!

Scoop Deville does it again! I know I can't get ice cream and shakes like this anywhere else, and it's very rare I am impressed twice by a restaurant. I didn't really know what I wanted when I walked in. The menu has a lot of options when you go in. And it can be a tad overwhelming when trying to make a choice on the fly. But the same young lady that helped me before asked me what flavors I liked I told her I was feeling butter pecan. She made me a butter pecan peanut and caramel shake. This is probably the best shake of my life. She is a ice cream master! Definitely add this to your menu!

Top tier combinations and staff. These guys are great The 90s throw back jams coming from the back creates the perfect atmosphere after a long day at work!

I was so excited for the vegan options that I dove right in and forgot to take a photo! It was so good and very affordable for vegan and non-vegan options. I will be back once in the area!

I ordered 2 açaí bowls online for delivery earlier today and upon receiving them first noticed that there was a long strand of blond hair. Second, the fruit was VERY questionable, looked old and both orders were missing a topping (Nutella). Honestly if I'm paying the outrageous price of $18 for an açaí bowl that is watered down and with hair I should hope that at least they'd write on the bag that they didn't have something. But no, instead I'm reminded of what toppings and fruit I ordered written in the lid and get to compare to what I didn't get. Just beyond disappointing I can't get my money back for something I won't be eating.

Walking around Philly on a Nice Saturday spring night and we see Scoop Deville with a ton of folks in line so we obviously jump in line ourselves . Flavors look interesting with different blends, sundaes, milkshakes etc. We go with the molten lava for a good chocolate fix and some oreo sundae mixture (The Dirtiest Oreo) with blue cookie monster ice cream, whipped cream, oreos, fudge, and a brownie. Good stuff...not your typical ice cream shop so it keeps things interesting.

There are lots of options to choose from. Delicious! I wish I lived closer so I could go there again!

Delicious ice cream creations!! A must visit when I hit Philly. The graham cracker dust is delightful

Stopped at scoop Deville after dinner and ordered a "butter butter." What I received was a melted bowl of milk covered in almonds. I asked why it was so melted, I was answered with attitude "it's soft serve ice cream, it's all soft serve everything comes from the machines" I was blown away by his attitude so I just turned away an threw it into the trash. My daughter, however, had scooped ice cream. It wasn't soft, nor melted. I take the ice cream to the guy and simply said sir this isn't soft he said I know it's a Sundae. I thought you said it's all soft, he said "that's not what you asked me"..... it was the attitude for me. His name was Tommy. Who said he was the manager after i asked to speak to the manager. It's because of him that I'll never return nor will I recommend this place to anyone. Being nice goes a long way

One young man running around busting his butt while the 2 girls stand back on their phones and could care less. One texting, the other playing music and dancing with her head down. And this place is super busy so they need food help not lazy entitled girls who don't care. Sorry I wasted a tip, I would rather go hand the young man the entire tip for all his hard work! Thank you for the response. I would like to add the girls are here just one has her gloves on while she's texting and standing in front of customers. the other girl is at the register, but has her head down and takes orders but neither wants to help the young guy you have here who is in my opinion the hardest worker. And yes I know this doesn't reflect your business, unfortunately it's hard to find good help these days. I just think it's sad that such a popular place for tourists is not being ran better. We all loved the ice cream!

(Takeout order via Snackpass) Simple system -- you can pick-up online orders through a window outside. My Oreo Mudslide ($5.94) melted on my walk back home and later refroze. Even so, the icecream was solid (in terms of taste but also state of matter). Tinged w coffee, textured w crumbled Oreo, and sweetened by a fudge sauce offered on the side. Nothing mind-blowing, but we don't need mind-blowing.

You can order ahead and they have a little window for you to grab your order without having to go inside. Inside they offer hand sanitizer and have it set up so that you cannot walk up to the counter but instead practice 6ft. Staff was very friendly and they have various things for you to get besides ice cream. Those ice cream sandwiches were huge and the shakes looked sooo good. Will definitely be trying it next time.

Delicious and creamy! Had the coffee and mint chocolate chip and both were great! However I could have bought a gallon of ice cream with the amount I spent lol

Their vegan flavors and huge variety of options for toppings and add ons are the best! I love that I can get fruit swirled into the ice cream without it having to be a milkshake. I recommend sticking to the flavors of the day over getting the soft serve. I like the seasonal options (pecan pie, pumpkin pie) blends but the vegan vanilla soft serve didn't have enough flavor for me. My friend did however love the regular vanilla ice cream! With so many options, I'm sure you'll find something to suit your taste!

After getting dinner, we got some ice cream nearby. Honestly didn't expect much but it was better than expected! You can customize your own soft serve ice cream with whatever toppings you want within them - in a way, it's similar to cold stone but I think this place is a bit better. There's also a ton of regular ice cream flavors if you want that. Their menu is quite large so it can be a little intimidating but it's all good. It's tasty! Go check it out if you're in town.

Walked by this place and was enticed by the line that had formed outside of the door. The Oreo Mudslide was delicious and probably our favorite out of the flavors we tried! But the Samoa Blend was a miss. It was almost completely melted when we got it and something was off about the flavor. Overall, this place had some interesting flavor options and is good for a quick fix of ice cream but I probably would not return. Pro tip: free size upgrade when you check in on Yelp!

Had the half baked cookie monster sundae and it lived up to the name. Best sundae i've ever had by FAR. The half baked cookie was just as described at the bottom of the glass, and they go HAM on the toppings. Really expensive but it's amazing what you get. A modern franklin fountain but with better pastry options.

Pretty good ice cream place if you typically like a lot going on with you dessert! I got a butterfinger signature suggestion which reminded me of a blizzard but better and my fiancé got a salted Carmel shake. Great way to end the night after dinner in the city.

In full disclosure, I didn't try the ice cream, but my ice-cream-once-a-day-teenager was not overly impressed. Lots of exciting sounding mixins, but overall, pretty expensive for an average product.

The Mystery Shake was the best shake I've ever had on my life! It was sooooo good!!!!

Ordered two vegan milkshakes from this location. On delivery apps, it's under the name "Sweet Vegan" but the same address. When I've ordered from the South St. location, the shakes were creamy and delicious. From here, it tasted more like a chocolate smoothie, made with thin liquid and water/ice. Strawberry was slightly better than the chocolate, but both pretty similar.

Came here last night and enjoyed my frozen yogurt "Banana Pudding" which tasted exactly like banana pudding. It was delicious. I was prepared to be overwhelmed because literally there's so many options. Check into YELP and you get an upgrade for free! The employees were nice and told us what their famous for and what to get. You can take a selfie with their iPad in there as well which is super cute!!
