Rita’s Italian Ice is made fresh daily on-site and available in a rotating daily selection from over 75 flavors. Rita’s menu also includes creamy Frozen Custard and signature frozen treats such as Gelatis, Concretes, Milkshakes and more.
“We are beyond excited to bring Rita’s Italian Ice and Frozen Custard to the Chambersburg community,” said Keila and Mark Trace franchisee owners of the newest Rita’s location. “For us, this venture is more than just a business opportunity; it’s a chance to create something truly special that reflects our family values and brings joy to Chambersburg.”
