13 Best Ice Cream Shops near Ledyard

“Henry delivered great customer service to my friends and I. He was very engaging and we all had great conversation. The ice cream shop was very clean and well organized. My friends and I were very satisfied with our orders and we would highly recommend!“

“Buttonwood Farms is one of the best places to get ice cream every summer! It’s all freshly made in house and you can tell the amazing quality. The waffle cones are my favorite! They also have milkshakes that are huge and well worth the price. And if you can’t have dairy, they also have non-dairy and sherbert options! They also have a beautiful sunflower field the blooms in the fall which is not only a great place to take photos, but when the proceeds from your flower purchases go to a great cause!“

“Went on a Sunday for a cup of s'mores ice cream. Very very tasty and there were a ton of options that sounded good. Great place to take kids or a family. Convenient location next to the dock

Vegetarian options: Ice cream is all vegetarian. Some meat with the pretzels but very safe for veggies

Kid-friendliness: Tons of different options to satisfy any kid's craving“

“Mike and the Flavorking ice cream trucks are the best!“

“I recently took my family to Twisters Ice Cream, and it was a delightful experience from start to finish! The variety of flavors is impressive, with something to satisfy every taste bud. My kids were thrilled with the colorful, fun options and couldn't stop talking about the unique toppings they got to choose from. The ice cream itself is creamy, rich, and bursting with flavor—easily some of the best we've had.

The atmosphere at Twisters is welcoming and family-friendly, with plenty of seating to oversee the Mystic River that made our visit even more enjoyable. The staff was incredibly friendly and patient, especially as our little ones took their time deciding what to order. We also appreciated the clean, well-kept environment, which made us feel comfortable and at ease.

Overall, Twisters Ice Cream is a must-visit spot for families. Whether you're in the mood for a classic cone or something more adventurous, you'll find it here. We left with smiles on our faces and are already looking forward to our next visit! Highly recommended for a fun family outing.“

“Absolutely delicious ice cream! Love this new shop in the heart of Stonington borough. The same owners from Noah’s Restaurant opened this great new business next door. Service is excellent and the menu items are creative and fun!“

“Small dairy farm on an honor system. Megan and Randy are very friendly and want to please all their customers they consider friends! They love their animals so much, all have names. Raw milk and products, grass fed meat and fresh eggs. Homemade ice cream made on the premises. Buttercup Farm is a must visit!“
