]]> America’s oldest ice cream company—established in 1861—Bassetts Ice Cream was the first merchant to sign a lease at the Reading Terminal Market in 1892 and is still owned and operated by the same family today. Their menu of more than 40 different flavors includes something for everyone, from the most traditional (they make a killer vanilla) to the more adventurous (Cinnamon or Matcha Green Tea, anyone?).

Made with cream and milk sourced from a co-op of dairy farmers in western Pennsylvania, each flavor is hand crafted and tested to perfection. Stop by for a cone, cup, pint, sundae, or milkshake, and factor in some extra time to check out the original marble counter, the hand-painted mural surrounding the store’s mezzanine, and the historical video footage from when Bassetts Ice Cream was produced in the Market’s basement.

]]> It’s a tough choice between the sweet and the savory at Miller’s Twist, Roger Miller’s shop that sells soft, butter-dipped Amish-style pretzels. These pretzels, a Reading Terminal favorite, aren’t the chewy pretzels that Philadelphia is known for, but plenty of people prefer them. These are made from fresh dough throughout the day, rolled and twisted by hand, and tender. The faint tang from baking soda and the rich butter gives them their distinctive flavor. Since their pretzels are so good you might want to eat them three times a day, Miller’s Twist has figured out how. There are many breakfast options:  bacon, egg, and cheese, all wrapped in pretzel dough. Lunch choices include pretzel-wrapped hot dogs or turkey sausage flavored with broccoli and cheddar.
