The Franklin Fountain - Philadelphia - Photo album
When there is a long line, you know the ice cream will be good! The Franklin Fountain is a beautiful ice cream shop located in old Philadelphia. The employees were all super friendly and they have unique and yummy flavors! I appreciated vegan and gluten free options. I got the vegan pumpkin in a cup
Stopped by for a treat after dinner. The sea salt caramel was incredible! My granddaughter tried the chocolate and loved every bite of it. There's so much more than ice cream, though. You won't regret ruining your diet by stopping here. Can't recommend it enough.
Family-friendly words can not describe how good the milkshakes are here. I had the Sea Salt Caramel, and my wife had the Hydrox Cookie the Original OREO. I assume that we both got 'regular' thickness for our shakes because the cashier did not ask us what thickness we wanted and there was not an extr
UNREAL! The best ice cream I have eaten. If you want ice cream this is worth the drive and a must do in Old City. I can taste that this is how ice cream is supposed to. The unique profiles are all there as is the texture, sweetness, complexity of all of the flavors combined. They also have drink ref
The Honey Comb Ice Cream is a must, from the bee hive on the roof! Worth the wait. Most expensive ice cream... soft pretzel was okay. Old fashion ice cream parlor vibe.
Good selection of ice cream and a very cute old-fashioned aesthetic, but overpriced. I got the mint chip flavor and it was delicious.
A Philadelphia Staple, the ice cream is simply delicious! It’s not much to say but the customer service is superb and there are various flavors to choose from. They stay open late even on weekdays, and in the summer they are packed. I don’t visit often but when in the area it’s always a must to stop
I would recommend this place to anyone for the old timey ambiance and absolutely outstanding customer service!
I went with some friends to Philly for the weekend and this place was one of the top items on our list. I personally ordered a cola and a Oreo milkshake and surprisingly neither tasted too
Best ice cream I’ve had and I’ve had a lot. Caramel and Hot Fudge toppings were on point. Only negative was the price. $22 for a two scoop ice cream in a container with hot fudge and carame toppingl. I appreciate that they take Apple Pay and the ambiance is worth a visit alone.
First time to Franklin Fountain. In a word, AWESOME!!! I had the peach Sunday. It was sweet and creamy. A must if you are in Philly. Can wait to got back on my next visit to Philly.
The best ice cream EVER. A true staple in Philly! The ice cream is served in a Chinese take out box. The flavor options are endless! Street parking only! 10/10 summer spot!
My favoriteeee ice cream! The flavors are exceptional and everyone is always so nice! Nice to see somewhere vintage with quality ice cream! Also, the weekends have crazy lines but it’s worth the wait!
A MUST GO Ice Cream place in Philly. Close to the independence mall area and Elfreth's Alley. There's usually a long queue but they take order quickly. All the flavours taste good. My favourite is rum raisin. A bit pricy as you need to pay extra for the cone. They also sell soda, colourful and diffe
Me & my family have gone here a couple times & loved it every single time! Always friendly staff, the inside is nice looking, a vintage vibe! 🤩 Their butter pecan is so good & their pumpkin ice cream tastes really fresh and as if they just blended up a pumpkin, which for me I wasn’t too big on but y
Best ice cream place!
Highly recommend Pistachio flavored ice cream
First time going here, I didn't even know this was an ice cream spot. I got some chocolate ice cream and it was absolutely delicious ! Seriously happy I came across this spot and decided to try it out. Most definitely will be coming back here with friends & family !
This was at the top of my list! I really wanted to try the traditional root beer float. I’m usually an ice cream only person, but I couldn’t imagine not trying the soda, since it’s basically an homage to the old soda shops! I must say I wasn’t left dissatisfied at all. Usually with root beer floats
Love this place. This place gives you that 70’s experience of an icecream parlor. They serve some of the best homemade ice cream’s in this area. They have a variety of different flavors and options to choose from including brownie sundaes, ice cream sandwiches, and shakes. This place is located righ
