While visiting Penn State, we were told that stopping at the Penn State Berkey Creamery was an absolute must—and it definitely lived up to the recommendation. The ice cream was fantastic: rich, creamy, and packed with flavor. You can tell right away why it has such a strong reputation among students, alumni, and visitors.
One thing that caught us off guard is that they don’t really offer multiple portion sizes—it’s essentially one generous serving size for everyone. While that might surprise some people, the quality of the ice cream makes it easy to overlook. The variety of flavors was excellent, and everything was well organized and easy to access even with the steady flow of visitors.
If you’re visiting Penn State, this is definitely a stop worth making. Great ice cream, great flavors, and a fun part of the campus experience.

Ice cream as good or better than you can get anywhere! I went Happy Happy Joy Joy (which is basically an Almond Joy bar ice cream) and it was by far the best I’ve ever had. It’s what one imagines whenever ordering “Almond Joy” flavor, but I’m generally disappointed at the weak coconut flavor etc. This is the real thing, SO good.

An institute. Renowned for the Agriculture School’s proud 100+++ year ice cream making and education history. Highly recommend doing one of the frozen dessert short courses of you have the time and means.

The ice cream itself is very good of course, flavour and texture caters well to the US palate. Very large serves, only one flavour allowed in a cup/cone but you can try before you buy. Happy happy joy joy, death by chocolate are my solid favourites. Fresh dipped is always best, but you can also order the tubs to be delivered to you.

The Penn State Creamery is a must visit. I had the Peachy Paterno and loved the real chunks of fresh peaches in every bite. The rest of the family raved about the Chocolate Marshmallow and the Peanut Butter Swirl. Both were rich, creamy, and full of flavor. If you are in Happy Valley, make this a definite stop. You will not regret it.

Everyone says that this place is THE place to go at Penn state and they were right. The ice cream is amazing. If you’re ever in Penn state, definitely give this a try. Ice cream is relatively cheap too

The Creamery at the University of Pennsylvania is a student-run ice cream shop located right on campus, known for serving locally sourced, small-batch flavors. It’s part of Penn’s School of Veterinary Medicine and originally launched as a way to highlight agricultural innovation and dairy science. The project gives students hands-on experience running a real food business, from production to marketing. Everything is made in-house, with seasonal flavors and rotating classics that reflect both quality and creativity.

I had the mint chocolate chip—it was rich, creamy, and packed with flavor. Plus – it hit the spot on a hot day!

Delicious ice cream that is worth the usually long line! Although a tad pricey, they give you a very generous amount. The ice cream is not too melty, which I appreciate! Their flavors are always delicious; I enjoyed the Happy Happy Joy Joy flavor last time. I also love their death by chocolate, arboretum breeze, and peanut butter twist. I highly recommend stopping!

They make the best icecream on the planet. Flavors for everyone’s desire. They also make cheese,dips and a assortment of yummy food. You cannot go wrong it’s worth stopping by because they have dry ice to keep everything frozen for your trip home.

I recently visited Berkey Creamery during my niece’s graduation weekend at Penn State, and it was just as amazing as I remembered. This was my third time stopping by, and it never disappoints. I had the peach flavor, and it was absolutely delicious—creamy, fresh, and full of flavor. Other members of our group tried different flavors and loved theirs as well.

The atmosphere has that fun, cool college-town vibe, and it’s always buzzing with energy. If you’re ever near the Penn State campus and in the mood for some seriously good ice cream, Berkey Creamery is a must-visit spot.
