“My sil brought the party box over and omg the oatmeal mallow sandwich was amazing!!! The crumbl by me was not a great experience because the cookies were dry and a bit sweet, this location and getting 12 cookies proved me wrong that even though it is a chain, certain stores execute better than other. Would reco this and the oatmeal cookie, it's soft and chewy and so yummy“

“The best vegan ice cream in New Jersey! This creamery is truly one-of-a-kind with their vegan and gluten-free creations. In addition to their ice cream, their cookies and olive oil brownie are must-try items. I love how they have seasonal and holiday specials as well. So lucky to have such a great local spot that fits my dietary needs!“

“By far my favorite creamery! They have a great selection of both traditional dairy a and vegan choices. The vegan ice cream is so creamy and full of flavor- many uniquely delicious. Today I tried a beet, maple and rosemary flavor that surprised me and one called the lake, with royal spirulina andbgolden sea moss- had a fresh clean upfront flavor that ended with cake batter- yummm. The coffee hazelnut was my favorite though. I always grab a pint to go also.“

It was a Sunday and the girl behind the counter was very rude and said we don’t have any they need to be ordered a head of time , thankfully RALPH walked in and saved the day he went above and beyond to get us what we came for ! If you don’t know the lay of the store you shouldn’t be working there ! Customer service should be a priority and she certainly wasn’t willing to try helping . I will be back but hopefully someone who wants to help the customer is working!“

Chocolate Chip

“Decent, but I've been to better ice cream parlors. When we went (Labor Day 2023), the line was long. The problem is when you get to the long counter with all the various flavors, you might have given your order before seeing all the flavors. It would be great if they had an electronic display that rotated through all flavors, perhaps with pictures and descriptions. That way you could have narrowed down your choice by the time you get to the counter. This in turn could help the line move faster. The service itself was good, the quality of the ice cream decent and the prices reasonable.“

I had a small Salty Sea Captain Sundae which was generous with lots of hot fudge and Geoff had a scoop of Brownie’s Irish Cream. This was our second time there, again, delicious. Lots of kids. There is plenty of parking. The ice cream shop is accessible. There are plenty of benches outside, but this is mostly a take out. If you’re looking for ice cream cakes, they have many!“

“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.“

Now, no other place compares. Coffee ice cream is my favorite - cream and delicious. And the prices are reasonable. My trick - get a pint to go. That way you get double the deliciousness“

Strollos Italian Ice Ice Cream Shop • $
501 Main St, Belmar - 4.42 miles

“Can’t give 5 stars due to the subpar service and god awful ownership. Otherwise, this location is the only one worth visiting. The “lighthouse” ones are more like water ice. I highly recommend the peanut butter if they have it. Some flavors run out fast. Coconut hasn’t been on the menu in years since before they moved across the street. I can’t answer why and wouldn’t bother to ask. Amazing ice, cheap, but sadly cash only. The staff really could be better. The phone also never gets picked up to confirm hours. It’s all about luck and not confirmation they’re open.“

Betty's Icebox Dessert • $
Boardwalk, Asbury Park - 2.34 miles

“Awesome little ice cream and shaved ice place in convention hall. Note- it's shaved ice- not Italian ice style. Both the small and large shaved ice are huge which is cool. Price is a bit high at $8 since it literally costs them next to nothing for ice and some juice mix but everything is out of control pricing nowadays. You can choose up to 3 flavors or just do one. Good selection of flavors. Ice cream is vegan and dairy free which is cool for those who can't do dairy or are vegan. Note if you want regular ice cream there's 2 places on the boardwalk that has that. Staff was friendly. Small tables to eat your ice cream at. Great way to cool off on a hot summer day.“

I can remember as a kid Carvel commercials how can you forget Cookie Puss. After a long time on making a decision we chose the ice cream sandwiches Yummy. Upon arriving we told my brother in-law we got ice cream sandwiches his serious reply was he never meant a ice cream sandwich he didn't like.

“When I tell you that this is some of the best soft serve ice cream that I've ever tasted.. I'm just really glad that this place is about 35 mins from me, so that I'm not pressed to visit a couple of times a week. LOL. Came here after a day at the beautiful Seven Presidents Beach.. and it was the perfect way to cool off before ending our day. Very friendly and accommodating service. They were generous and understanding with our very indecisive girls who needed refills of sprinkles lol. Very clean areas to sit down and eat your delicious treats. I ordered the pistachio Italian ice which was very interesting.. non dairy but was tasty. But, it was the sample of the vanilla soft serve that took me over the top... but, I'd already placed my order and didn't want to be a greedy buzzard. Believe me, when I'm back at the shore.. I will beeline to get a full serving of it.“
