"Maria’s is our favorite ice cream spot! They celebrated National Ice Cream Day and I won a Maria’s coffee cup. Every item on the menu is fantastic. There are picnic tables to visit while you enjoy your cool treats too."

"It was my first time to Maria's Tasty Delighrs. I had a bowl of peanut butter overload ice cream. It was delicious! The ice cream was very peanut buttery. The staff was very friendly and professional. The server asked several questions to make certain the order was right."

"The ice cream was delicious. I ordered a hot fudge sundae with chocolate/vanilla twist soft serve ice cream; it cost me $5.74 for a size medium. If whipped cream had come standard on the sundae and was not an extra charge, I may have given five stars. I feel the menu price for a standard hot fudge sundae is above average here at Maria’s Tasty Delights. One item I would like to see added to the menu is a brownie sundae!"

"During the recent heat wave, I found a great solution to my thirst which was compounded by a recent occurrence of dry mouth. The ice cream relaxes but the cherry slushie exploded with flavor and quelled my senses in the persistent heat! Making this a regular stop from now on!"

"Maria's Tasty Delights is a cute little ice cream shop in the neighborhood. They offer a variety of soft serve, sundaes, milkshakes, hard ice cream and more. My go-to is either the chocolate covered cherry flurries, peanut butter pretzel paradise or hot fudge milkshake. FYI: I usually get strawberry milkshake when I visit an ice cream shop, but I am not a fan of their version since they use the kind of strawberry flavor syrup that makes it taste quite synthetic"

"We were in Erie PA for an annual lady shopping trip from Canada. We both had the orange sherbet and vanilla twist cone. It was probably the most delicious ice cream cone that I've ever had. I I know we're returning in November but I hope that we come again in the summer so that I can get another cone. This place will look really cute if you had some pink Bistro tables out front as opposed to the picnic tables tucked away in the back."
