Just in time for the busy shore season, Philadelphia’s beloved Famous 4th Street Cookie Company and Bassetts Ice Cream have opened a new Famous Cookie Creamery on the Ocean City Boardwalk offering ice cream sandwiches, and ice cream and cookies. These iconic Philly brands located in the Reading Terminal Market have collaborated many times and share a special bond.

Owned by Brian and Tina Phillips, this national online retailer maintains a strong community presence throughout the Philadelphia area and has long been active in the community giving and supporting a range of charitable causes.
