Carvel Ice Cream Shop • $$$
460 County Rd 520 E, Marlboro

“Last Rites have been performed on Carvel so many times that this chain appears to have 99 lives but like their famous Fudgie The Whale ice cream cake, they swim on despite dragging countless harpoons behind their frozen carcass like a dairyland Moby Dick.Since my youth, when founder and minister of creep Tom Carvel would exhort you to visit, in amateur hour radio advertising that sounded like he was talking through a tracheotomy tube filled with gravel, locations have certainly dwindled to a precious few but the ice cream itself remains solid and tasty.The stores remain locked in time, lit by harsh fluorescents and sporting a vaguely industrial feel as they excrete your treats by the pound.But who of a certain age can forget countless birthday parties where the aforementioned Fudgie The Whale and Cookie Puss (with their magical chocolate crumbles) were the star of the show. It was a far more innocent time... if you came up with these product names today, you'd probably be summarily cancelled. Over the years countless comedians have had a field day.So carry on Carvel, continuing to defy the naysayers and the obituary desk. Cookie Puss? Didn't I see her years ago in a seedy Vegas revue? Who can remember these things. Four solid stars.“

“The most delicious crepe you will ever have. Large portions, perfectly filled, the batter is light and spongy, not overly dense or too crispy. Just right. My favorite is the Ferrero Rocher. The black raspberry and coconut ice cream are superb. Best dessert spot in town.“

“It was our first time going here and we were very impressed by the flavors. My wife tried a vegan flavor and she said it was one of the best ones she’s ever had. As we walked up to the store, we saw the owner cleaning up the outside and while we were sitting inside, we saw him cleaning up as well (bonus points), you can tell he wants to keep his shop clean. Excellent customer service and flavors, we will definitely come back!!“

“Overall my experience was great. Nowadays you have so many companies that prioritize their profits over the true quality and experience that they get to give a customer, and I think that’s where capitalism truly fails. When you live in a world run by corporations offering nothing but cheap goods you’re left with a society that is utterly depressed because their lives are just full of mediocre experiences. Crumbl is different, think about getting a 6 pack of crumbl cookies, and a 6 pack of Dunkin’ Donuts, and you’ll see exactly what I’m talking about.Their business model is fun and exciting yet still very lucrative. Similar to the Fortnite item shop, The weekly rotation of cookies allow customers to get excited over new cookies while also giving them a sense of urgency to try these cookies before it’s too late!All in all I had a great experience with the service, delivery, and food quality, and this is a super high score I would rarely give out but crumbl goes above and beyond to ensure that the customer has a happy and fun experience with their food and that is something the world needs more of, i am giving them a solid rating of 9.4/10“

When we walked in I couldn’t resist to poke around at all the ice cream flavors in their display cases as well as other fun goodies they had in their to go fridges like ice cream pints, ice cream pies, and ice cream cookies! You can’t help but feel like a little kid all giddy deciding what flavor you want! Worker Chelsea greeted us with the sweetest smile and the most amazing customer service by giving us an ample amount of suggestions and samples of the flavors they have. So happy to have come in and will definitely find myself back in East Brunswick again for these sweet treats and sweeter service! ◡̈“

Frozen Yogurt

“We just found this place a week ago my son comes into the store to purchase our low-fat or sugar-free yogurt. He was skeptical at first because it's hard to find a good yogurt place since we used to a place in Brooklyn New York that was fabulous. The owner helped my son with the various products that were either low sugar no sugar or low fat. We both must say that the peanut butter we consistently get was absolutely delicious we were very impressed with the quality and the taste. I know it seems a little pricey but with the cost of everything today it doesn't seem out of place and with the quality it's worth it my son signed up to get the rewards because we're going to be coming to this place very frequently“

I got the Gansito ice cream, it's a chocolately strawberries and cream dream in vanilla ice cream. I got a "small" but the portion was nice and generous, and it was less than $6! Everything is homemade, proof is in their Instagram and the great flavour/quality!

“This is such a fun spot!! I live only a couple of minutes away and never really thought to try it out... the other day I wanted some fro-yo and decided to try out the Fro-Yo Cafe! Stopping in just made my whole day better, it was such a great experience! First off, the decor and ambience in the little shop is adorable and even has a little fish tank in the seating area!! Second off, all of the flavors were unique and not your basic vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry type of thing. They have cherry tart, s'mores, fudge brownie, cake batter...! And this fro-yo was sooo good! it was light and airy with authentic flavors that didn't taste too rich or overbearingly sweet. Last but definitely not least, the TOPPINGS !!! Something about the layout and selection of their toppings just made my mind go wild! There were so many to look at and I was overwhelmed with the amount of delicious options! after some careful decisions, I decided on some cookie dough bites and waffle cone crumbles but I could have gone MUCH crazier! One last thing to mention is the super friendly and helpful service! Also not sure if it mattered, but when I went it was pretty quite, it was a Saturday afternoon around 3 pm. And fairly priced, too! a bowl that I was able to share was only $5! can't wait to come back!!“

“With several locations along the Jersey Shore, this Middletown location is the newest. Huge, bright, airy, and busy but no seating on the inside which is kinda sad because I wanted to enjoy my ice cream while looking at what other flavors I should get next. Your only option is either the two benches outside or your car. The servers looked tired but the young man who helped me was nice enough. I picked the Vegan Speculoos Cookie which was AMAZING! The texture was different but the flavor was all there! $5 and some change for a small. I scream, you cream...“

“Thank goodness I don't live very close to this ice cream parlor because I would be there every day. Six of us took a tour and decided to try the ice cream when we were done four of them had the black raspberry ice cream with black with chocolate chunks and I fudge over the top, it was delicious. I've tried the lemon bar with caramel. It was so good I've gone back twice. The owner and staff are extremely friendly. They explain everything and everything was wonderful.“

With seemingly high reviews, I felt this was a place worth checking out.Believe the hype, me hearties!The owner seems like a solid guy. Real personable, and had a conversation with us. Offered us a couple samples too.The wide array of flavors of hard ice cream were really impressive. I got the thin mint/mint cookies and cream, the wife got a cone with espresso bean ice cream. Both of us were more than satisfied with what we ate. I don't think you can go wrong with a place like this.“

“The doughnados here are 5 stars! I love the cake batter cookie dough here! I’m a chocolate lover, but the vanilla custard here is so delicious! One thing disappointing is today I ordered the absolutely delicious birthday cake doughnado which I always order, and the girl gave me the tiniest scoop of cookie dough! I also had the twister here with chocolate custard and peanut butter cookie dough cream ice. It was good, but not nearly as good as the doughnado. The peanut butter cookie dough cream ice was good, but not great. I’ll try another cream ice flavor next time. I recommend Ralph’s Italian Ices in Spotswood!“

607 Newman Springs Rd, Lincroft - 7.01 miles

“I grew up with Ralph's Italian Ices on Staten Island back in the day. It has been 20yrs since I've last had the sweet delicious frozen treat that is Ralph's. I've been wanting to go back and get it for the longest time but haven't had the opportunity nor time or desire to make the trek back to SI. On a recent visit to my family living in the NJ area I saw that Ralph's has expanded. Went on a whim to try it to see if it is as good as I remembered. Spoiler: It is! I was so happy to see that it was still made and tasted the same. You will not find Italian ice like this anywhere but Ralph's.“

Jake's Cree-Mee Freeze Ice Cream Shop • $
8306, 337 NJ-33, Manalapan - 7.77 miles

“MY GOD, TEACH YOUR EMPLOYEES ABOUT CROSS-CONTAMINATION AND FOOD HANDLING AND FOOD ALLERGIES. Phenomenal ice cream. Always clean. A must when we're in the area. BUT, I ordered a chocolate banana shake. What I received was a chocolate peanut butter shake. Granted, it's tasty. As is the norm. But if it were my niece who sipped it first? You'd have an ambulance at your doorstep. No exaggeration. People die from accidental exposures to allergens, ladies. And when told of the error, the correct response is "I'm sorry", first. And THEN, offer to make another. Pretty simple. The response is NEVER to cop an attitude, question the customer being "sure" and simply just offer to make another. Ignoring the potential dangers. We both know the lovely boy in the other window eating and sharing his ice cream with you was the reason you were both distracted. It's an honest mistake. But for some people, it could be a lethal one. Otherwise, hard and soft serve ice cream consistently delicious with fair pricing. Always worth the stop.“

“I love Ralph's Italian Ices! The staff at this location are super nice too. They let you have a sample before you buy. My favorite Sundaes here are the apple cobbler and the hot fudge brownie. They are so DELICIOUS! The hot fudge brownie ice cream I swap the soft serve for Mississippi mud hard ice cream. Hot fudge sundaes are better with hard ice cream because soft serve melts quickly when it's topped with anything hot. Their Ices are far better than Rita's too! My favorites are the chocolate chip cheesecake, peanut butter and jelly, and peanut butter cookie dough. They also have cookie dough sundaes here too which are also very good! The cake batter a peanut butter cookie dough sundaes are the best! The choices are endless here! I recommend Ralph's Italian Ices in Hazlet!“

Bell works is absolutely beautiful and a great place to chill and do work. Ample seating and beautiful ambiance. Service was fast. Only issue is that for the price the amount was small. At other places the ice cream would be cheaper for the amount given.“
