If you know The Bethlehem Dairy Store then this is their sister store. They have all the same great ice cream minus a few flavors give or take. This location includes retro arcade games and one of them can be played for a free sundae. The service is always pleasant and I recommend coming here for their homemade ice cream!

An ice cream shop with more than 80 years of experience and still retains the genuineness in its flavor.

Lots of flavor options and serving choices (cup and cone sizes, toppings, soft serve, milkshakes...) the only thing I didnt like too much is the amour if cream they use for their ice cream. Their recipe turns out suuuper creamy and heavy, almost like a scoop of butter. I like ice cream more airy, but thats my personal preference

My friend lives in the area. She picked us up dessert the other night. (6/19) She mentioned a great ice cream.shop in town. All I needed was a spoonful of ice cream to know this place stands out amongst the other ice cream shops. I cannot remember the name of the flavor I had but the 3 main ingredients were vanilla ice cream, peanut butter, and banana chunks. It was delicious. I will be returning as often as possible because why not? Good ice cream is life!

Open all year around which makes it even better. I love the creativity that goes into the new flavors. The Cookie Monster one is amazing. The ice cream is creamy unlike most ice cream places. And for a small cup I believe its around $3. Im here all the time getting the birthday cake in a waffle cone. 😍 my favorite ice cream place ever.

Favorite spot. Nice and clean. Super tasty variety of flavors

What more can I say? Best scoop in town! Best ice cream I’ve ever had anywhere. I have now officially become an ice cream snob :-) The chocolate raspberry truffle is beyond description. As is the chocolate almond chip... Eventually I will move away from being completely in love with these two flavors and try other things but not ready to do that yet. I don’t buy grocery store ice cream anymore and have not for a long time. If I’m serving it at home I go and grab a half gallon or a hand packed pint or quart. OK I’ll stop now. Get my drift??? 😊👍🏼❤️

Very popular local place that has been here for years. Good service and friendly atmosphere. Lots of choices and favors. The ice cream isnt as good as I like, that is the only fault. Great place to take kids.

This place has a lil short guy working. Was being racist. The lady in front of me ordered the same thing I wanted. The picture in the window is what I wanted and he said he couldn’t make it. I said he was being racist because I’ve gotten it there just days ago. Also a white couple got it right before me. Instead of me getting anything I left. I wish I would have gotten his name. He’s short had on all black and heavy set with glasses. My money spend just like the next person.

Went back to the Cup several times since my first google review. They still get 5 stars2018 reviewLittle ice cream shop set up at a college but it doesnt seem too busy or crawling with college kids in the summer which is good. Pretty good selection of ice cream and you can sit at a table inside or outside in the common area. Used to go to ice cream world a lot but there is always long lines and no where to sit.

I really love the ice cream ! I think it’s the best ice cream around ! But I’m highly disappointed that I drove 20 mins just to pull in the parking lot Literally and was seen for them to lock the door about 10 mins early when they represent their hours till 10pm . Then I walk up to the door and they just got the wet mop didn’t even start to mop comes to the door starts mopping and says where closed through the door, matter of fact couldn’t even open it to be professional about it. It’s Very bad to treat customers in fact customers that come often like that. If you see a customer at the door before your really closed you should of opened it for your customer that was bringing A decent amount of money to your store. I have managed a store and never turned down a customer in appropriate hours. I’m highly upset about this and the disrespect I was treated as a regular customer !

The ice cream is good but.....$4 for a soft serve cone with sprinkles ? I think that’s a little too much

Im a The Cup fan since little and the location on Linden St was owned by Libertys finest principle Mr.Burkhardt. This second locations ice cream is awesome but the staff at night needs some coffee and a better attitude. Convenient for the Lehigh University students but not the family environment/ feeling the original store has. Overall I love their awesome ice cream and variety of flavors
