    Big scoops and ice cream was delicious. I recommend the grilled sticky! It’s like a cinnamon roll in ice cream form, delish!!

    Hotel B ice cream parlor has some of the best ice cream in town. They have a great number of items on their menu including ice creams, milkshakes, sundaes, floats, drinks and coffees. I love their connection to Penn State University. This place has great vibes. It feels very "homey" and "comfortable" when you're in there. They have a fixed ice cream menu that you get year-round, but they also have special ice cream flavor that changes every week. When I was here, I got the "Alumni Swirl Ice cream" which consisted of vanilla and blueberry. They are also reasonably priced for the amount of food you get. I got a "small" cup, which was about $5, they gave me 2 massive scoops of ice cream, which was enough for 2 people. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place and I would definitely come back again for some more ice cream from here. I would give this place a 10/10.

    Good ice cream in prime location at Bethlehem’s Main Street, overlooking at the hotel and the street, it is a good spot for ice cream and people watching. We have been coming here forever, when they were inside the hotel (which we liked better) to the current location. The price has gone from $1.25 to $4 for small one scoop or $5 for medium two scoops. They are quite generous with the size and there are so many flavors.

    Delicious ice cream. Ridiculous prices for small serving sizes. The photo was "2 scoops" for 7.50.
