This was my first time visiting Franklin Fountain, what a great experience and the peanut butter ice cream was the best I have ever had. I look forward to going back again soon.

Best ice cream, hands down. Everything is real fresh ingredients. It makes you fat and happy and full. Cash only. Line is long, but it's totally worth the wait.

The ice cream is great, and my family always enjoys going there. We brought my 86 year old father there on Monday and he ate every last drop. However, it is fairly overpriced. My daughter is a vegan, and did love her vegan ice cream! We will go back there again.

Pretty neat lil place the ice cream was good but over priced (6 bucks for each or more)..the 2 dollar extra waffle cone wasnt worth it but held ice cream better n you get a lil more .. the place is super busy ..expect that ..if your in a wheel chair you can for get going in ..very cramped and not handicap accessable... The inside of place was pretty neat tho for real... it is worth throwing down some cash for a tourist philly visit ��
