Hanging tough for YEARS, The Dam Candy Store has remained a Fishtown favorite--even with competition nearby. This tiny shop delivers big on charm and value, offering the best prices you'll find in the county for ice cream and sweets. The Superman ice cream is a fan-favorite, scooped into house-made waffle cones that smell like pure childhood joy.
