R-Type

Irem's 1987 title R-Type is a horizontally-scrolling shoot 'em up game. Though infamous for its difficulty, R-Type is among the most beloved games in its genre. Players control the star ship R-9 "Arrowhead" and strike against the evil alien race known as Bydo.

Manayunk looks more festive than ever this holiday season, and we're doing our best to be a unique part of it.

Our homemade LED window display has been outfitted with several brand new animations, and we'd love it if you voted for Tubby Robot in the Manayunk Gets LIT contest!

Participants can vote on a daily basis, so vote early and vote often.

Today is Small Business Saturday in Manayunk, and we have a LOT going on!

It's time to stock up, because this is the only day of the year that we offer a discount on our ice cream. Half gallons are $19 today, and pints are marked down to $7.50. We're starting with the following flavors available in half gallon form:

  • Vanilla

  • Butter Pecan
  • Mint Chocolate Chip
  • Mint Cookie
  • Sea Salted Caramel
  • Cookies n' Cream

Anyone who purchases at least one half gallon will receive a free limited-edition tote bag, designed specifically by JD's Hero Complex for Manayunk!

For the retro gamer in your life, we're selling a Christmas chiptune album by Philadelphia's own Sloopygoop! This brilliant amalgamation of classic Christmas tunes and the Wario Land soundtrack is sold on an honest-to-goodness cassette tape -- along with a card printed with a download code for a digital version.

Continuing with the day's small business collaborations, the Walnut Coffee Cake Sundae is back! Constructed around My Sweet Gluttony's Famous Walnut Coffee Cake, this masterpiece is here to keep you going through a big day of shopping small.

This weekend we're serving a special sneak preview of our brand new Hot Chocolate!

Deep, rich, and made from scratch, it's sure to keep you warm on a cold night. With a variety of toppings and more in the works, we suspect you'll be coming back for more.

Happy November, everyone!

We're starting the month off with a brand new item: The Cinnamon Roll Coffee Cake Sundae.

Based on yet another mouthwatering creation from our friends at My Sweet Gluttony, this sundae incorporates a generous piece of Cinnamon Roll Coffee Cake drizzled with homemade frosting. As always with the best things in life, supplies are limited.

Hey punk, are you ready to FALL?

Strap into a five-point harness and rappel down a mighty SICKamore only to find the ground covered with DEATH. That's right, dead leaves as far as the eye can see! Hold the tears for your brethren as you storm the pumpkin fields and let them know grim retribution is here to give them a flannel-clad HIGH FIVE.

This week we have Apple Oatmeal Muffin Sundaes, which are built around the titular baked goods made by our friends at My Sweet Gluttony. Request a scoop of our Pumpkin Pie ice cream to complete the chain of AUTUMNAL GLORY.

After a long year of streetscape construction, Main Street has been freshly repaved and looks incredible!

Come check out the neighborhood's transformation and treat yourself to a Walnut Coffee Cake sundae, which is back for the first time since May. These sundaes are built upon Famous Walnut Coffee Cakes baked by our friends at My Sweet Gluttony, and you'll be beaming with autumnal spirit after the first spoonful.

We have been extremely fortunate to have received no damage to our building during the night's storms and continuing flooding. We feel for our neighbors who are currently contending with the aftermath of the highest local water levels in recent memory.

There are a lot of folks walking out on Main Street, and we plan on being open during our standard business hours to serve anyone looking for a distraction from... everything. We'll be open as long as the utilities hold out.

Fan-favorite flavor Mint Cookie is back in action, and it's still dang good.

August 02, 2021

We're honored to be included in the Inquirer's list of "Best Banana Splits", and even happier to learn more about the history of one of the most classic sundaes of all time!

Happy National Ice Cream day, everyone! Around here, we just call it Sunday.
