11 Best Ice Cream Shops near New Hartford

“My wife and I Just stopped for breakfast. Ordered a normal bacon, egg and cheese on a roll nicely done. But the surprise really delicious part of our breakfast was the BLT breakfast sandwich which is just what it sounds like with am two eggs. Staff was very friendly. food was great. We will come again.“

“This farm stand is super delightful. There is a store and an ice cream window. They have all sorts of flowers and plants out front. Walking in, I was greeted by a friendly employee. They had all sorts of items; ice cream, ice cream sandwiches, handmade soaps, jewelery, honey, maple syrup, candy, sauces, fruits, veggies, milk, eggs, lollipop, chocolate, meats, and various accessories. The store gave me that friendly small town vibe. The owners, The Tullers, have been farming on this land since 1768!I specifically went in for the ice cream; they had so many flavors to choose from. I had the m&m cookie and graham cracker ice cream sandwiches, the cookies were chewy and the ice cream was super creamy. I also had the pint of Ube (purple potato) boba ice cream; the ice cream was so smooth and creamy, the flavor of ube was light and delicious, the boba was hard and chewy. I think I'd like it more without the boba; I did notice they had the Ube and chocolate chip version I might try out next. I am looking forward to going back to get some more ice cream because they were so good and had so many flavors to try. I like that they experiment and have unique flavors. Also, I love to support small local businesses, especially when they produce quality items. There is a walking trail onsite. First, take a hike then get yourself an ice cream treat, it's a no brainer haha!“

“I wanted to try this mini golf course for our 41st anniversary. We loved it ? It has unique holes with a variety of challenges . It has plenty of benches throughout the course if you need to sit. If you want to play again, the second game is half price. They have an ice cream shop too with lots of varieties that aren't the normal flavors. A few of them are Grasshopper, Bubblegum, Monster Mash and Campfire S'mores. There are at least twenty flavors. They also have some strange flavors of soda . Zoom in to check out the top shelf“

“Icecream flavors were fun and the scoop size is very generous. We had the black raspberry and charcoal flavors.Wonderful ambience. We went in December and so the decoration was holiday themed, but even otherwise I think the space lends to a relaxing atmosphere.Parking: Parking behind the buildingKid-friendliness: Plenty room for kids to sit around“

“Friendly's is wonderful and this location has great food and service. Love their breakfast and of course their ice cream. The Avon location I have gone to since the 90s (when Blockbuster was next door) and am so glad this location is alive and well!“

“I recently purchased my grandsons 10th birthday cake here. He wanted cookies and cream ice cream with yellow cake in the center. The staff uses pound cake and the cake was just delicious. Can't thank you enough. We will definitely return. We love Carvel!“

“Deleted my old, negative review from a couple years ago to replace it with this one. I believe this was purchased by new ownership a little over a year ago now(?) and the differences from my last visit are substantial. They have the staple froyo flavors and it's very clean inside. I *love* that the topping are self-serve now. I happily dumped a million different things onto my froyo. Great variety of chocolate, gummy candy, fruits, etc. Pricing is on par with most other froyo places locally. Color changing spoons were a fun surprise. My partner and I both loved our treats and will definitely return.“

“Great course with beautiful views! Staff was very friendly.“

“J. Foster has to be one of the best ice cream makers in Connecticut. We have never been disappointed in the flavor and quality of their ice cream. There are a lot of lacklustre ice cream places serving flavorless or mediocre ice cream, but J. Fosters is good old fashioned handmade goodness. They have many classic and creative flavors and all are made with quality ingredients. It’s a cute little shop and easy to eat indoors or outside in the warm months. Their staff is a bit young and often lack a bit of people skills but are helpful and scoop ice cream well (pretty much what the job requires). My favourite flavors are strawberry and heath bar crunch, but everything is good. They even have good tasting low carb and sugar free flavors.“

“I have the pleasure of working here making ice-cream. The cleanliness. And attention to detail surpasses any food service place I have worked at in the past. Canton Creamery has many different flavors such as mint chocolate chip , rum raisin strawberry cheesecake, smores just to name a few..( my fav. Is the apple crisp) they cater to the vegan and gluten free population.Hot fudge and caramel toppings are home made and delicious...Come check us out , you will not be disappointed.“

“I've visited here and I always leave here satisfied. The ice cream are always mouth watery & I always try to savor every bite because of how good it is. The co workers are always polite, always makes sure I, as a customers, am satisfied before i leave. Though I won't sugar coat anything, the lines can be very long and the wait can vary but once you get your ice cream, that wait is definitely worth it?“
