The FACE of Ice Cream
Sweet Ride Ice Cream
Eleven years ago, if you told Sweet Ride Ice Cream owner Angie Farrell that she would one day own and operate the sweetest shop in Berks, she wouldn’t have believed you. In 2013, Angie was working as a paralegal and her husband as a teacher. They were sitting on the beach when they heard the bells of an ice cream vendor, and he said, “We should get an ice cream bike!” The rest is history.
Sweet Ride serves award-winning delicious ice cream that is made on site on Penn Avenue. More than your typical ice cream parlor, the shop is designed as a 1940s-style soda fountain. In addition to experiencing (or remembering) days gone by, customers can enjoy Sweet Ride’s treats across southeastern Pennsylvania from their traveling ice cream bike, mobile ice cream parlor and ice cream truck. These sweet rides are the perfect surprise to up the fun factor for your next event!
