6 Best Ice Cream Shops near Shelter Island

“My family and I came here yesterday for my Birthday while we were exploring Shelter Island for the day and we had massive amounts of good times and even greater memories. Ice cream was outstanding and the Owner was helpful and courteous. we will be back!“

“The Candy Kitchen is a dependable diner in an area without many affordable places to eat out. I really enjoy a stress-free eating experience in Bridgehampton. It's also a joyful, classic ice cream experience. Dropping by a cute old-style candy counter for some really high quality ice cream is such a joy. It's locally owned and family-run by people who love to be there.“

“It has been ages since I've been to Carvel (I've only been buying their cakes from grocery stores). You can't beat Carvel soft serve! I was surprised and excited to see they had new soft serve flavors. I ordered a small with half vanilla and half pistachio and of course rainbow sprinkles. I really liked the pistachio! There was also cold brew and vanilla lite soft serve. A small is $5.99 and it is HUGE. Next time I will order the kiddie size.“

“Sundaes on Main is one our favorite places in the Hamptons! We have been bringing our son Maximus since he was old enough to walk. Jeanie always treated us like family. The atmosphere is so cute inside, especially the retro back room of candy. We most recently had part of our son’s birthday party there where the kids made create your own icecream cups with toppings. It was a huge hit for all. Jeanie also made custom gummies bags with special dinosaur gummies she ordered for Maxi’s theme. If you’re out east, this is a must for kiddos!“

“This is a great breakfast spot in an area that I feel is missing it. They’re very diverse in breakfast, lunch, and dinner options, and also have a dairy dip for dessert. The corn beef hash is their highly touted dish, and while it was good, I don’t think it was spectacular. The pancakes were actually surprisingly great with low expectations. Coffee is typical diner coffee, but next door is a great coffee shop to visit if you’d like. Would come again, worth the visit.“

“This shop was my favorite discovery when I went to Sag Harbor. At the end of the Main Street, you would see this house with a lot of kids eating yogurt in front. I was overwhelmed with the choices. The yogurt looks healthy because most of them are dairy free or sugar free. It's the toppings that would add the calories. My little cup came out to be $6.50. I had three different flavors and I went heavy with the cinnamon toast cereal and dry coconut flakes. My friend is lactose intolerant and I recommended BuddhaBerry to her.“
