20 Best Ice Cream Shops near Montville

“I came with my wife yesterday and we had a great experience! The person was very friendly and helpful when I didn’t know what I wanted to order. The employee named Eden made the best banana split I ever had. Will be back soon for another!“

“Friendly staff and of course, delicious ice cream! I had Cowabunga Crunch!“

“I had my first Diary Queen ice cream at the Niantic branch, the heath cup-achino - it had caramel, a chocolate fudge and whippy ice cream. (I can’t remember the exact name. I will definitely have it again and take a photo next time!) It was a sundae. Huge portions. I shared mine with my other half. There was a long queue as everyone was there after the Memorial Parade. I didn’t mind waiting. There’s lots of car parking space outside. It was a take away. The only thing I was sad about was there was no coffee ice cream on the menu. I get that this place is for children, the menu was huge. You don’t want children bouncing off the walls, but adults love ice cream too.“

“This is the best frozen custard in the area!If you've never tried frozencustard, it's creamier, thicker, and better than soft-serve in every way! Mix it with some Italian ice, and you're in heaven.The staff was friendly and let us try some samples of different flavors.I Love this place, and will drive out of my way just to visit.“

“So I went during “off season” and on a cloudy day. But I’ve heard the place gets slamming during the summer, and parking can be an issue. Though it wasn’t for me.
But! Man! That was some delicious ice cream!

I ordered it online, and picked it up within a few minutes. It was perfect, not hard as a rock, and not melted!

The only thing I really can say as a negative, is the price. Don’t get me wrong, it was filling and satisfying, but I think it was just under $20 for what I got, and it was just me.

I will definitely go again though! lol.

Parking: If I had to guess, maybe 20. But I think there’s more down back.

Kid-friendliness: It’s an ice cream shop! How much more kid friendly can you get?! lol

Wheelchair accessibility: I believe it would be very easy to get to the serving windows from the parking lot. There are spaces, and a “mild grade” ramp going to them.“

“It’s ice cream! Of course it’s amazing!“

“I am not typically an ice cream girl… I go along for the ride… but lavender honey did not go to waste nor disappoint!! Beyond delicious and great staff!“

“Tasty ice cream!!! Great choices of exotic flavors.“

“I took my grandkids n niece all under 3 on Sunday Aug 28 they had an amazing time, place was super clean, people were very nice so much to learn. I do have one suggestion I would be nice if there was roaring sounds as you walk the woods to make it more interesting and realistic.“

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

“I tried the Froyo Frozen yogurt for the first time, vanilla bean on top of chocolate yogurt on Jan 4, 2023, it was one of the best things I've ever had. My favorite places for ice cream are cold stone and Michael's dairy, they are very high up my charts, but this place was not anywhere far behind, this has also become one of my favorite food places! The cashier, "Nate" was very polite, answered all my questions kindly, explained everything about the machines that I didn't understand and hesitated to touch before, since this was the first time I had been there! 5 stars ? delicious, and great customer service. And not expensive, friendly prices.“

“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!“

“It’s the best Candy Store“

“My family and I love the ice cream and atmosphere here. Ice cream is not extremely sweet so you don’t feel as guilty after eating it lol. They have a pretty large variety of flavors and toppings. I love my sugar free butter pecan ice cream but last time I went they had a different flavor with raspberry. I just wish they had more sugar free choices but other than that they are great!

Parking: Parking lot is rocky!
And it’s hard for wheelchair accessible and walkers. They need to work on that.“

“I'll always be a fan of dipped cones and hot fudge sundays from Dairy Queen. Service was kind of weird. The guy working here wasn't around and the place was dark when we arrived in the evening. Then he came out and served people for a little over an hour. Then the lights went out again, so I'm not sure what their hours are. He was friendly though. I was also really excited to see the variety of flavors for dipped cones! chocolate, cherry, dreamsicle (which I hope to try when it isn't sold out) and butterscotch“

“Great little chain ice cream shop that makes custom ice cream concoctions while you watch. Great choices. I really like the mud pie mojo. I usually get a "love it" size in a waffle bowl. To be fair, my atmosphere stars are based on my being spoiled and living very close to the shore and enjoying lots of great views. This place isn't in the ghetto or anything. It's just in a big strip Mall complex. I go here fairly regularly and we always enjoy it.“

“For a fast food place, food would be as expected. Staff was very friendly, and their attitudes made being in there enjoyable, even with you being inside only a few minutes. Service, as of the two days I stopped in, was fast, faster than service I typically get from the other location.“

“Had a big order or sundaes Selena made sure all my sundaes we're made perfectly even after I changed an order. The service alone makes this restaurant worth coming to“

“I would highly recommend Skippers. The fish sandwich was not heavily battered and not greasy. Just right! and generous portions. Fries and coleslaw were delicious too.“

“It's probably the least known of the local fast food chains, so why is the food SO GOOD??? DQ fries are hands down the best. There I said it!Their burgers are so high quality and you can't beat a Blizzard, I don't care where you go.“
