Frosty Jacks

Nestled off the beaten path on Newton Road in the quiet town of Pittsfield, Pennsylvania, Frosty Jacks is a beloved American diner that blends classic 1950s charm with a modern sweet‑shop experience. Housed in a retro‑styled building that echoes the original Peggy Sue’s diner of 1954, the interior features polished chrome, neon signage, and a miniature glow‑in‑the‑dark golf course that delights both kids and adults. The menu showcases twelve handcrafted ice‑cream flavors—from velvety vanilla bean to bold caramel swirl—alongside eight inventive “ice” desserts, fresh homemade fudge, specialty coffees, and an array of classic American fare such as burgers, fries, and milkshakes. Signature treats include the Ultimate Christmas Cookie Tray, a festive assortment of jumbo sugar cookies, whoopie pies, and custom‑chosen cookies, perfect for holiday gatherings. Open Tuesday through Sunday, the diner serves lunch from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, and dinner from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. every evening; Mondays are closed. Prices are moderate, with most entrees ranging from $8 to $15 and desserts from $4 to $7, making it an affordable family destination. Outside, the surrounding rural landscape offers hunting, fishing, and hiking opportunities, while the nearby Calico Mountains provide a scenic backdrop. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick coffee, a nostalgic ice‑cream sundae, or a full dinner with a side of retro fun, Frosty Jacks delivers a warm, welcoming atmosphere that feels like a home‑cooked hug in the heart of western Pennsylvania.
