Most of tonight's Stroll After Hours festivities have been cancelled due to the weather. Here at Tubby, however, we're still selling Cookie Sandwiches with a brand new type of cookie: Chocolate White Chocolate Chip!

Yes, that is an insane combination of words to string together, but we assure you that they add up to something DELICIOUS. As usual, we're giving all props to My Sweet Gluttony for their baking benevolence.

We usually tell people to come to Manayunk because it's a wonderful place and that's where our shop is. Today, you can ALSO find us in Center City at the Ice Cream Festival on Filbert at Reading Terminal Market!

From noon to 5pm we'll be serving up freshly-baked Mini Ice Cream Hoagies on Filbert Street. Just note that in past years we've sold out before the end of the festival, so come on the earlier side if you want to ensure receipt of one of these coveted and rarely-seen treats.

Tonight is the kick off of Stroll After Hours, a bigger, bolder Main Street experience on Thursdays in July!

We'll be offering up a different cookie variety for scooped-to-order cookie sandwiches each Thursday for the rest of the month. To start it off, we're working with classic chocolate chip cookies baked by My Sweet Gluttony. Supplies are limited, so be sure to grab one before you check out the music and the movie!

In case you were wondering: we are operating on our standard Monday schedule during Memorial Day!

Come stop by, order a flight, and play an extremely patriotic game of Contra.

Manayunk is currently alive with the sound of music, and it's all thanks to Sing Us Home! This weekend a variety of amazing bands are playing on Venice Island, and we're bringing back a fan favorite to celebrate.

The Sing Us Home Sundae Experience starts with a scoop of Dulce De Leche ice cream and is topped with a toasty churro, caramel sauce, and whipped cream.

If that doesn't strike your fancy, we're serving *another* limited run sundae through Cinco de Mayo: Fried Ice Cream! We take the ice cream of your choice and coat it in fried, crispy, cinnamon goodness.

Today is the StrEAT Festival in Manayunk, and we're celebrating by offering a brand new menu item!

The Classic Ice Cream Sandwich is a hearty take on the frozen treats we all grew up with, baked and assembled from scratch by our friends at My Sweet Gluttony. These were a true labor of love, and you can *just about* taste the months of R&D that went into making them.

We're closed today for Easter, but we'll be back on Monday when our normal hours resume!

March 19, 2025

Believe it or not, today marks Tubby Robot's EIGHTH anniversary.

Maybe it's our love of computers and base-2 numbers, but eight feels like a particularly meaningful milestone. It's been an incredible chunk of time, and first and foremost we need to thank all of YOU for supporting our shop through thick and thin. Here's our deal: If you keep coming, we'll keep making ice cream.

On to the celebration! We're serving fresh Ice Cream Hoagies all day, with co-owners Chris and Steve both serving them up personally all night. It's forecast to be an incredible day, so stop by and join in the fun!

February has a LOT of things going on, but one that we're particularly fond of is Girl Scout Cookie season. That's why we're serving our fan favorite Cookie Season sundae again, and *that's why* you should come down and eat it.

Cookie Season starts with decadent Chocolate Mint Chocolate ice cream and is topped with hot fudge, cookie crumble, two thin mint cookies, and a dollop of whipped cream. It's truly one of our favorites, and it's only here for as long as we can still buy cookies.

This afternoon is your last chance to pick up game day pints!

We'll be closing at 5pm today so our staff can cheer on the birds.
