delicious soft serve exactly where you're going to crave it - at the beach! spent the day on the sand and then headed for cones. we tried ordering the waffle cone sundae, but they misheard us, and we ended up with the one that comes in cup. would have preferred less plastic. ah, well. it was still good, if not a comically large amount of soft serve... that we managed to finish :)

Nice co es available

Mr

Chocolate Dipped Sandae (7$)The "Chocolate Dipped Sandae" that has ice cream between two crackers is a good try. It costs 7.09$ and you can choose between "Almonds" or "Peanuts" in the Sandae. We chose Almonds and liked it.

If you're a tourist, get a float! You can change the base if you don't like root beer (like me) and you get a nice souvenir cup too!

Nothing I love more than cold sweet treats on the boardwalk! Loved this old school looking spot with so many sweet treat options! We went simple with a frozen chocolate covered banana with peanuts and vanilla soft serve in a cone! The line wasn't that bad, price was reasonable and the lady helping us was nice.

Idk why but the vanilla ice cream my husband and I got was not sweet and didn’t have any taste of vanilla in it. Very bland and not flavorful. Basically just cold cream but not the ice cream you love and would expect on a hot today. We went on 9/3/22. I hope it was just today that it tasted so flavorless and not sweet. The waffle cone was tasty plus sprinkles too.

The good: Call me crazy for Carousel Cones. This is my new favorite ice cream. I got the ice cream sandwich on a stick dipped in chocolate with peanuts on the outside and it was $5. It was AMAZING. The price was also amazing! Great value! The ice cream sandwich was freshly dipped in chocolate and they were generous with peanuts. The peanuts fell off a bit and get a little messy but it's oh, so worth it. The ice cream wasn't hard. I was thinking about the ice cream treat for days after having it and crave it still. I will definitely be coming back here next time I'm at the boardwalk. I even ate the ice cream sandwich after being really full from lunch and a smores crepe so I can only imagine how much more I would've enjoyed it if I wasn't stuffed. The bad: I cannot believe I've been going to the boardwalk since I was 9 years old and it wasn't until now, almost age 34, that I tried the ice cream from this place. The interesting: They're located on the left of the carousel hence their name. You can opt for sprinkles instead of peanuts.

Friendly staff short quick lines. No cash accepted. I got the swirl chocolate dropped cone. It was delicious!

Get your dipped soft-serve cone fix here! I have a total nitpick: they regularly don't dip far enough for the chocolate shell to connect to the cone. Things start off ok, but eventually the ice cream melts like crazy under the bottom edge of the chocolate.

Good creamy soft serve. Unfortunately the they were out of the dipping sauces so I couldn't give 5 stars.
