Mr. Shivers Custard Treats

It seems like there are so many ice cream stands in Erie, but we recently came across this gem on Route 19 (or as we in Erie call it Peach Street) and we simply adore it!

Location:

Mr. Shivers is located at 11220 Old Rte 19 N, Waterford, PA 16441. If you’re on Peach going south, continue past the mall and then pass Splash Lagoon, and in about 8 minutes you’ll reach the stand.

Property Description:

Mr. Shivers is an ice cream and food stand, with seating on both sides. To the left you’ll see tables with umbrellas, and to the right a bar like seating area. You order at a window, and will pick up your order in that same window or another, depending on how busy the stand is at the time.

What to Do:

We couldn’t imagine coming to Mr. Shivers without trying an ice cream cone! There are so many Perry’s Ice Cream flavors to choose from. On the day we went, we had 30 different flavors to choose from!

What we really liked about Mr. Shivers Custard Treats is the amount of ice cream you get. We were very surprised to find out that a baby cone has 1 scoop, a small cone has 2 scoops, a medium cone has 3 scoops, and a large cone has 4 scoops! And for the amount of ice cream that you get, we thought the prices were great.

Ice cream isn’t the only thing Mr. Shivers serves, as you can get anything from fresh cut fries and hot dogs to buffalo chicken or a grilled cheese. We love that this stand boasts a menu that’s fit for lunch or dinner, so if you want to enjoy a meal and then go back and get some ice cream for dessert, this may be a great location for you! And we do have to say, the soft pretzel with cheese that we got was super good!

Who Can Go:

Anyone can enjoy all of the yummy treats and sweets at Mr. Shivers! It is accessible for strollers and wheelchairs, and has ample seating on both sides of the stand. You can also bring your dog if you’d like!

We would recommend coming here if you’re looking to do a date night in Erie, trying to spend time with your family, or meeting up with some friends.

Final Thoughts:

Mr. Shivers in Waterford, PA is a wonderful place to check out! We really liked the setup and we thought the menu was extremely extensive for a stand like this. If you’re looking for ice cream in Erie and you’re in the area, this is something we wouldn’t pass by.
