Manning Farm Dairy

Manning’s Ice Cream Shop was a perfect stop after dinner at Sushi Thai with my husband and in-laws. We absolutely loved the ice cream selection! There were so many great flavors to choose from, and everything we tried was delicious. We already can’t wait to come back when it’s actually warm outside and enjoy it even more. Such a great spot for dessert with family!

This is always a must stop when in pa. There are many locations, each is good. Our favorite ice cream is the Carmel critters. We also liked the barnyard gravy, banana, and caramel sea salt.

I make a point of stopping at Manning every time I'm in Scranton. The homemade ice cream has been consistently fresh and free of ice crystals and grit. Every flavor I've tried is excellent, and there is always a large variety including many creative ingredient combinations.

Especially if you like tasting REAL dairy in your ice cream. That bright, sweet, CREAMY, straight-from-the-farm dairy flavor is quite honestly as close to perfection as you can get. Unfortunately their business-/customer- facing side of things is absolutely AWFUL. The juxtaposition is truly breathtaking, it is almost as bad as their ice cream is good 😆 I tried ordering my wife a custom birthday cake, and was told that for a custom cake I need to order AT LEAST TWO WEEKS IN ADVANCE. Fair enough, a week in advance isn’t enough time to put together an ice cream cake so I took one of the pre-stocked “boring” balloon ones. Her name is Ve

The milk is delicious and the ice cream is the best I’ve ever had! The employees at the Dunmore location are awesome! 👏
