Pops, a long standing South Philly tradition. They have been open almost 100 years. That say a lot. The water ice is great and the staff is friendly and helpful! Cash only no debit or credit cards. Located in South Philly on Oregon just off Broad. Parking is fairly easy it's South Philly park right in the middle of the road in front of pops! Enjoy this great place! The pretzels are a nice snack as well!

Gelati rules here. Vanilla soft & ginger ale is my favorite, but that's only every once in awhile. My dog loves it too lol.

Local and the absolutely best. Others can’t compare! Would love to see you keep Center City Pretzel in stock - yum!

Love visiting older famous food places when traveling and no trip to Philly would be complete without a trip to Pop's, operating since 1932.

This place has been here since way before i was born and since it only sells water ice and ice cream you know they gotta be good. I have been coming here my whole life and is one of the best water ice spots in south philly. Actually thinking about it i am gonna go get me a chocolate and mint gelato shake yumm

I've been coming here for 38 years and it's still the absolute best. Rita's and these other new places just don't come close for me. Real authentic Italian Water Ice!

Water ice was good, not very sweet but that’s my preference.however only 1 out of the 8+ customers that were served while I was there had a mask on and the staff did/said nothing which I understand is the norm in south philly but it’s corny- do better.heads up they are cash only!

Overpriced! Never again and what ice cream at and doesn't sell banana splits or a sundae.wont be returning I could have bought 2 quarts for the price of a medium cup. $6.25.a total rip off.save your money and go to the market

I have been going to Pop's since I was a little kid. I love this place there is no better water ice anywhere! Thank you to all who work there.

Mostly good. Could use more flavoring, like it felt like sometimes you were just eating crushed ice. As long as you don't get cherry, the flavors are all good.

Great, quick dessert or snack for the summer. Very cheap, cools you down, and satisfies a sweet tooth.

The kids love the flavors here. A nice change from Rita's. I am getting addicted now too.

It's Pop's! It's iconic Philly wooder ice. You need to visit at least a few times a summer.
