30 Best Ice Cream Shops near Branford

“Stopped in tonight and the ice cream was amazing as always. The employee who helped us was incredible - she gave me a sample of the bittersweet chocolate ice cream which is now my new favorite flavor, she was so sweet! In my case, it’s not everyday a teenager is friendly to customers but the employee who helped us was absolutely phenomenal and I will be back to this location specifically for her! Thanks for making incredible ice cream and hiring wonderful employees!“

“Lovely ice cream store in excellent location.

I pulled off the interstate while traveling to eat lunch at the Brownstone House of Guilford.

As I was leaving, what do I see directly in front of me? You guessed it, ice cream!

And no self-respecting foodie is going to ignore that gastronomical sign of the heavens, right?

Wonderful flavors, I had mint chip in a waffle cone, and an assortment of many other sweet concoctions.

They also make ice cream cakes that are holiday and season themed. I hear that Halloween time is especially enchanting.

Super friendly staff and just what I needed for dessert.“

“I love DQ & we just moved to North Haven & this DQ is literally a 30 second walk. I’m so excited“

“I usually get the sweet cream, but recently I tried strawberry, which is my new favorite. I suggest getting strawberry and chocolate together. An unexpectedly good combination.

As for seasonal flavors, I really liked raspberry and pistachio.“

“Best DQ in CT the ice cream is just different here the texture and taste is way better, the toppings are always generous and they actually fill the cup over the top so you definitely get what you pay for here. The employees are always polite and always get the orders correct.

Parking: There’s like 15 parking spots there is 1 handicap spot but no matter where you park you’ll be close to the building.

Kid-friendliness: Great for kids

Wheelchair accessibility: You can get here no problem with a wheel chair“

“I love this place. There r so many things in the menu u just wouldn't expect and it's all delicious. You also get big portions. The milkshakes are amazing. I always get takeout just because the seating area is small but it's still very nice.“

“I love this ice cream place it is great place for friends and family!!“

“The employees at the North Haven store are always friendly, helpful and fast. I've never had an issue or mix-up with my order and the cookies, as always, are scrumptious. I particularly like their rewards program . Points add up fast and you get frequent and substantial discounts without being constantly bombarded by texts and emails or having to buy a million cookies first.“

“I've been buying my feed here for over a year the people working there are well amazing always helpful, knowledgeable about their products also have been always been able to answer any questions I have had about what feeds I should use for my animals, and they are always ready to lend a hand when my wife goes there to pick up feed when im away working I wish more business were like this I can't recommend this store enough to do them justice“

The staff was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, offering great recommendations based on my preferences. The atmosphere of the shop was cozy and inviting, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy my drink. I especially loved the Taro Milk Tea which had just the right balance of sweetness and creaminess. I will definitely be returning and recommending this place to my friends!“

“Fresh warm delicious cookies that taste like they literally just got out of the oven. What more could you ask for??? Yummy!“

“Stopped by here on a whim as I was driving through. I got the black bean burger, which was incredible (built my own with a bun, cheddar, and some avocado). It was well made and crispy on the edges. Very flavorful. The French fries were awesome too - seasoned well. They tasted almost like curly fries, but better.
Staff was welcoming. Food came out within 5 minutes.

Vegetarian options: Veggies burger option. Avocado and standard burger toppings. Choice for ice burger lettuce instead of bun.

Dietary restrictions: Choice for ice burger lettuce instead of bun, if you're gluten free.“

“Updating review to let you know being under staff is still a problem. People are leaving as I write this review. 10 people just left. We're being ignored and there are only 2 waiters so I can't blame them. You need to pay better or something. Poor waiters are running around like crazy.

Food is great. Always seems short staffed and servers are doing multiple jobs which delays even bringing you the check when you need to leave.“

“They made the most beautiful cake for my mom's 99th birthday. Living out-of-state made organizing her birthday party difficult, but Dairy Queen made the cake part go easy. A little late with the review, but huge thanks.“

“They rebranded into a regular ice cream place where they just scoop it in front of you now. I remember when it first came here and there was the liquid nitrogen which made it really cool to get ice cream. The staff was nice and it was clean which was good but kinda disappointing they changed the brand.“

“My server was Johna and she was amazing! Courteous, professional, friendly, and attentive are just a few terms I would use to describe her. The food was absolutely delicious. The portions were huge. Hubby had the fried seafood combo plate. He has never taken a doggy bag and he brought home half his plate. I ordered the hot crab dip with garlic bread as an appetizer and a cup of lobster bisque. We shared the appetizer and it was so delicious. You could tell it was made with lump crab and there was actual lobster claw meat that was in the bisque. I’ve never had it before where you could actually see large pieces of meat. From atmosphere, to service, to taste and quality this was definitely a 10 out of 10. Will definitely be going back! And special thanks to the manager who gave my hubby a piece of carrot cake on the house for our 35th anniversary.“

“Today was our first time in a Shake Shack Restaurant. Ordering was a quick process and our food was ready within a good 10 minutes or so? I ordered the Smoke Shack Double with French Fries and a 50/50 Lemonade/Iced Tea. My fiancé ordered a 6 piece of Chicken Bites….Hot, Juicy and Delicious. The Smoke Shake Double is my added to my personal list of “Favorite Burgers” 1. Five Guys Orange 2. Shake Shack New Haven 3. Prime 16 Orange 4. Prime Burger Ridgefield“
