WRIGHTSTOWN, PA — A new ice cream shop and espresso bar has opened its doors in Wrightstown Township.

Owned and operated by Julia Bailey, the shop offers more than 26 hand-dipped flavors in cups and cones along with more than 20 different toppings.

"We’re still soaking it all in, and these first few weeks have been nothing short of incredible," writes Bailey on Facebook. "Thank you to everyone who has stopped by, supported us, and made us feel so welcome."

Polly's is named in memory of Julia's beloved grandmother, Mary Eleanor "Polly" Bailey, who used to joke that when life in Wrightstown was tough in the 1970s, she wanted to leave it all behind and open an ice cream shop.

Julia opened her first shop in Fetters Mill Square in Huntingdon Valley last year and her new shop in Newtown/Wrightstown on July 4.

The shop is serving one-, two-, and three-scoop cones, cookie sandwiches, ice cream sodas, shakes, floats, banana splits, sundaes, and brownie sundaes, all made with a variety of toppings.

Her goal for both shops is "to stand out with exemplary customer service and cleanliness," standards by which she judges other businesses.
