SARRIS CANDIES TO OPEN NEW SCOOP SHOP AT THE PENN AVENUE MARKET DISTRICT
PITTSBURGH, PA, September 23, 2026 (PittsburghNewsWire.com) — Sarris Candies is bringing a new way to enjoy their ice cream treats with the opening of the Sarris Scoop Shop at the Penn Avenue Market District on Thursday, September 24.
Located inside Market District at 6310 Penn Avenue, the new Scoop Shop will offer a variety of Sarris ice cream favorites including cones, sundaes, milkshakes and other grab and go treats. Designed as a convenient quick-service stop, the location gives customers the option to enjoy their order while they shop or from the nearby seating area.
This new location expands the Sarris ice cream experience beyond the company’s longtime ice cream parlor in Canonsburg and introduces the brand to customers in a new setting.
“We’ve been serving generations of families in Western Pennsylvania and beyond for more than 65 years, and we’re always looking for new ways to meet our customers where they are,” said Sarris Candies President and CEO Bill Sarris. “Opening inside Market District gives us a great opportunity to do exactly that while introducing even more people to our ice cream.”
“At Market District, we are passionate about showcasing outstanding products, local partners, and food experiences to help our customers discover great taste,” said Dan Donovan, Market District Spokesperson. “We’re thrilled to expand our longtime partnership with Sarris Candies to now feature a Sarris Scoop Shop inside of our Penn Avenue Market District location.”
The Scoop Shop marks another step in the continued growth of Sarris Candies. Founded in Canonsburg in 1960, the family-owned company has grown from a small candy business into a regional brand known for handcrafted chocolates, seasonal favorites, ice cream and more.
The Sarris Scoop Shop at the Penn Avenue Market District opens Thursday, September 24, and will be open daily from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
