Gravity Ice Cream

My cousin Bob told us about this spot and we headed down here after dinner. Good choice! I went with a jumbo swirled cone ($ 3.50) and it was damn delicious. Soft serve swirled ice cream in PA just tastes better than anywhere else… kind of like PA corn on the cob. Don’t know why, but it just does! I would definitely come back here to get some more ice cream if I lived close by. Hell… we are here one more night and I might have to make it a point to come back! The ice cream was great!

Best ice cream spot in the state! $ 1.50 for a small swirl with rainbow sprinkles. Also, try the glacier!

Best soft serve around! We try to make it here a few times each summer. The prices are very reasonable and the staff is friendly.

Typical ice cream place nothing out of the ordinary. The staff are nice and you cant beat the price though.

I really like Gravity Ice Cream and Gravity Lanes (there’s a bowling alley attached). They have great soft and hard ice cream, sundaes, flurries, shakes, as well as quick eats like burgers, chicken sandwiches, and french fries. Oh, did I mention they have dog ice cream? Oh yeah! When I lived in walking distance I’d take my pups there way too much! lol. Great place, and the people, Jenny and Martin, are super nice. (Jenny takes pics of people’s dogs eating ice cream and they put them in a slide show in the window. hehehe.) The ice cream windows are open until 10 or 11 at night in the summer, I just wish the bowling alley were open as late.

I am an ice cream connoisseur, I drove an extra 6 miles from the ice cream store that is right near our lake house in order to test out the homemade ice cream. Luckily I went with nine other people who shared their ice cream with me so I got to taste basically everything there.
The test I always give to a new ice cream store is to test their milkshakes. The taste of a McDonald’s, Chic-​Fil-​A, or Wendy’s milkshake makes me nauseous. The only milkshakes I can truly enjoy are those the combine the tender balance of milk and homemade ice cream with my desired flavor. On this subject I do give gravity a very high score. I myself chose a coffee milkshake while another in my party chose a mint shake. Both of them however tasted very much like vanilla, not enough flavoring to make it quite five stars.
The taste of their homemade ice cream was definitely five stars. I did get to try the birthday cake ice cream, along with their standard vanilla and both were very much enjoyable.
Now for the faults, their soft serve is very much subpar. I am not a fan of Dairy Queen or most other soft serve ice cream’s due to their low butterfat content. If I’m going to get soft serve I want it to be high quality, gravity ice cream is bare minimum. The three sundaes in our party were each made of soft serve so they were less than enjoyable, if possible I would recommend getting a sundae made with hard ice cream.
I saw a few signs for their fried ice cream which entice me, so I did order a bowl. Is it very different flavor to have your ice cream covered in warm flakes; but it was a very delicious experience.
I like to visit as many ice cream stores as I can, and they always get extra points for having homemade ice cream. As for Gravity ice cream, the reason I cannot recommend with five stars is the fact of subpar softserve, and not quite five-​star milkshakes. If you’re looking for a place to take the family is easy to get to, close to the lake, but be warned it is cash only.
