I Scream, You Scream!

Hours: Seasonal
Location: Locations throughout Park on both sides of the gorge.

Our Suggestion: Chocolate & Vanilla Swirl on a Waffle Cone.

How do you prefer your frozen treat? A chocolate & vanilla swirl of creamy soft serve on a waffle cone? Digging into a bowl of flash-frozen flavor explosion? Or sipping on a float made from hard-dipped ice cream and soda? Either way, we’ve got you covered with multiple ice cream locations on both sides of the gorge.

Savor a cool Soft Serve Ice Cream or an ICEE on a hot day. Or munch on some Cotton Candy or Popcorn on the North side of the gorge at Cliffside Patio*.

Take a break from the fun and games at Tommy Knocker Playland for a sweet treat at Dippin’ Dots*. Or, watch the zip liners and gondolas traverse the gorge while sipping on an ice cream float or fresh-squeezed lemonade on the deck at Via Ferrata*.

Paper cup of coffee latte and coffee beans on wooden table

But First, Coffee!

Hours: Seasonal
Locations: North end of Bridge.

Our Suggestion: Caramel Macchiato.

Given enough coffee, you can conquer the world. Or America’s Bridge.

Stop at Java at the Bridge* for a cup of caffeinated courage before you head across the highest suspension bridge in America. If your courage is already topped up, you may want to opt for a Blue Raspberry Smoothie instead.

 

Hot or Cold. Courage or Confection. Either way, Yum.
