New for spring 2021, Hersheypark will debut two new culinary experiences in the new Hershey’s Chocolatetown region. Inspired by the vision of chocolate entrepreneur and founder, Milton S. Hershey, Milton’s Ice Cream Parlor and The Sweeterie Confectionery Kitchen will open on April 2, 2021. The Chocolatier Restaurant, Bar + Patio will open on Memorial Day Weekend, with more sweet details to come. 

Milton’s Ice Cream Parlor

Milton's Ice Cream Parlor located in the new region of Hershey’s Chocolatetown is inspired by Mr. Hershey's early ventures in sweetness that came before his famous chocolate factory. Expert Ice Creamologists will craft custom creations from more than a dozen 100% local dairy house-made ice cream flavors, including Candymonium, Reese's Peanut Butter, Toasted Marshmallow, and Malted Memories, which is a flavor created using a Spartan Ice Cream recipe developed by Milton Hershey School students, to name a few.

Other offerings include a King Size Sundae served in a souvenir Hersheypark dish with 5 scoops of house-made ice cream, confetti cake, unlimited toppings, fresh whipped cream and a cherry; a "warm" ice cream sandwich; chocolate, strawberry and vanilla milkshakes; and two ice cream floats.

Guests looking for a savory option can grab a bite from the shareable menu featuring house-made potato chips, buckets of fries and chicken bites in Hersheypark souvenir buckets served with a choice of dipping sauces like beer cheese, smokehouse BBQ, chocolate mole, garlic parmesan, and more. Additional savory menu items include a Signature Grilled Cheese with parmesan-crusted sourdough bread; Chicken N Waffles, one of Mr. Hershey's favorite dishes; and more.
