Penn State Berkey Creamery adds soft serve ice cream to its menu. What to know

Penn State Berkey Creamery is giving its renowned ice cream a softer side, adding vanilla, chocolate and twist soft serve that’s made on-site to its menu starting Monday. Customers can purchase a dish for $4.50. The Creamery is not offering soft serve cones as of Monday. “We know how much our customers love our hand-dipped ice cream, and now we’re excited to offer something special for all the soft serve lovers, too,” operations manager Doug Thomas said in a statement. “We’re always looking for new ways to make the Creamery experience even sweeter, and we can’t wait for our customers to try our soft serve.” A Penn State tradition since 1865, the Creamery is the largest university creamery in the U.S. In addition to ice cream, it produces cheese, milk, yogurt, sour cream and other products such as juices, lemonade, and ice teas. The store is open 7:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 7:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday, 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturday and 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday.
