Entrees are great, but dessert leaves a lasting impression, and we’ve been impressed by many of the desserts that we’ve tried in Reading and Berks County. Here’s a look back at all of the desserts – ice cream sundaes, cakes, pies and more – that we’ve reviewed:
Review: Savory Grille
A birthday celebration calls for a special night out, and there are not many nights out in Berks County that are as memorable as a meal at Savory Grille.
Reading Hospital
The dinner is just an excuse to brag about our newest family member.
Road Trip: Heisler’s Cloverleaf Dairy
Berks County has no shortage of drive-in restaurants, but some days, you just want to go for a drive. That's why we made the trip north to Schuylkill County and Heisler's Cloverleaf Dairy.
Review: The Pike Cafe
There are hundreds of restaurants in Berks County, but only one that's "World Famous." We visit the World Famous Pike Cafe for their famous wings and more.
Review: Folino Estate Vineyard and Winery
In celebration of Julie's birthday, we went in search of a memorable meal, and found it at Folino Estate Vineyards and Winery.
Review: Windsor Inn at Shillington
Not knowing what we'd find, Berks County Eats visited the Windsor Inn at Shillington. What we found was one of the best Italian restaurants around (and flaming desserts).
Review: Wyomissing Restaurant and Bakery
The newly renamed Wyomissing Restaurant and Bakery has goals of becoming "Shady Maple north east." We visited for their Sunday brunch buffet to see how close they are.
Review: Longacre’s Modern Dairy
Longacre's Modern Dairy in Barto is a 40-minute drive from Berks County Eats' home base in Wyomissing. But it was well-worth the drive, and the short wait, for a taste of their homemade ice cream.
Review: Carvel 5th Street Highway
Carvel was one of the most highly recommended ice cream stops by Berks County Eats readers. I put my predispositions aside to see what the fuss is all about.
Road Trip: The Jigger Shop
While driving through neighboring Lebanon County, we decided to take a detour to one of its most well-known ice cream parlors, the Jigger Shop in Mt. Gretna.
