Ballyhoo

Great service, great people, at great prices; can’t expect more than that.

Absolutely love this place. Awesome ice cream and even better people who own and run it. Also they have some of the coolest candy in town. Takes you back to your childhood seeing and eating some of those old school snacks. I truly enjoy this place!

There’s a new cow in TheValley and it’s spectacular!
Located two blocks off the Water Street bridge in West Pittston is a nostalgic ice cream shop with an olde-​tyme candy counter. There are many things to notice when you first walk-​in to the shop — the large cow in the window, the tall & heavy entrance door, the old wood floor, the aroma of waffle cones, the sight of candies from your childhood, but the thing that I noticed first and totally took me back «to the day» was the soft, blues-​y, orchestra music from back in the 20s and 30s. That sound just made me want to sit down and chill a bit.
Their ice cream is from Lieby’s of Tamaqua. So, the proprietors of Ballyhoo know good ice cream. Supposedly, Ballyhoo has intentions of producing their own ice cream when after they expand into the space next door. That fix-​out is under way. I wish them all the best!!!

This is one of the best ice cream locations in the area. The kids love both the ice cream and the candy. It is set up like an old time soda shop. The selection of ice cream flavors and candy choices is very large. They also make homemade apple cider in the fall and homemade hot chocolate in the winter. One of my favorite times to come is when they are making their homemade waffle cones. The aroma is wonderful. My personal favorite sundae is the troublemaker. I make it with lots of chocolate and peanut butter. My kids love the children’s sundae menu. I highly recommend this store!

This is one of the most quaint small businesses I’ve ever been in. Bringing back the nostalgia of the ice cream parlor. Classic candies and glass bottle sodas. Look over the sundae menu for a nice selection. The prices were very reasonable. Very unique flavors. This was the highlight of my evening. Don’t forget to press the gold button near the door on the way out!

Good selections great product very friendly service
