“Yesterday my friend and I stopped in after a performance at the Goodspeed . What a charming little place full of all kinds of delicious confections. Not only was the ice cream yummy, and we sampled several, but the young girl named Sydni working there was so friendly and accommodating and we enjoyed our stay immensely because of her as well as the tasty ice cream. Thank you Sydni for all your recommendations, we ended up with the 4 scoop sampler, which was delicious. You made our visit for ice scream a wonderful experience.“

“Chelsea and Dave are wonderful owners. They really take time to know their customers and make sure they are happy. I have celiac disease so they are very good when it comes to helping with what I can and can't eat. All their Italian ice are gluten free and and soft serve ice cream is as well. Great people great place. Oh and they also have pup cups which my dog gives 2 paws up :)“

“BEST PLACE EVER!! Ice cream was my love but since going here, their Italian ice & gelato is my absolute FAV! Such an amazing hidden gem in Middletown, I usually buy pints to keep me happy through winter when they close. Great customer service, clean store inside, a variety of options, and they give you a lot for the cost. Vecchittos has my heart.“

“Very kind service took care of us right as they where about to close very sweet Abby and charlotte are such fantastic employees who always show kindness even when they get small tips they are still amazing if I owned a icecream store I would poach them immediately, they made my night 100X better they were so fantastic that they got tipped $5 for there fantastic service.

It was so perfect for this type or event. The owner was speedy, responsive, and sufficient. The day was perfect and would 10/10 recommend for your next get together or if you just wanted to stop by for a sweet treat, good food and great atmosphere“

“Great Dairy Queen location – so happy to have one nearby!

I recently moved to Cobalt and was thrilled to find out there’s a Dairy Queen just 5 minutes from my house. When I lived in Hartford, the closest one was about 20 minutes away, so this is a big win.

The store is spacious, clean, well organized, and very inviting. We stopped by after a trip to pick up treats for myself, my husband, and our guests. As always, Blizzard treats are a hit and instantly make everyone happy.

If I had one small suggestion to make it perfect, it would be to enjoy the filling throughout the Blizzard, not just at the very end.

We arrived close to closing time for inside pickup (around 9:15 pm, with the lobby closing at 9:30 pm). I initially thought it closed at 10:00 pm based on Google, but that’s actually for the drive-thru. Even so, we were welcomed, treated kindly, and had a great experience.

I’m very happy to have this as our new local Dairy Queen and will definitely be back — and bringing more people with me.“
