Dairy Queen (Treat) Ice Cream Shop • $

“Thankfully, some great things don't change. This Dairy Queen was here 50 years ago when I was a kid. It's still in the same location, and the ice cream is just as good as it was back then. This place has a special place in my heart... Stopping here after sailing with my dad all those years ago was always an incredible treat.“

Tony D's Craft Creamery Ice Cream Shop • $$
440 Main St, Niantic

“Tony D's isn't your typical whole bunch of flavors I've cream location but they look fun. Service was quick and efficient but I wish she would have suggested options since I was lost. The actual location has no sitting but the house next door seems is where you can go and sit, and it looked comfortable. What I liked about this place is that is just outside the hectic downtown Niantic and accessibility is perfect and has ample parking“

Chocolate Ice Cream
Saltwater Taffy

“Super cute candy and ice cream shop. Plenty of candy, chocolate, fudge and ice cream. The person that was working there was very sweet and patient with my toddler who was running around the store incessantly asking for me to buy her a lollipop. They have a very cute sundae kit which we are so looking forward to- a quart of their ice cream, stonewall kitchen sundae syrup, sprinkles, whipped cream and cherries for $20.99. Nice to know there’s a place like this locally!“

“Had the hot lobster roll and clam strips.Every thing was very tender and fresh. Truely just what I was craving. The bun was soft, not soggy, buttered and toasted and tasted more like a brioche bun which is my favorite for lobster rolls. Service was friendly, pleasant and fast. The atmosphere was cute New Englalnd style decore with Mariachi music which added to the friendliness of the staff. They had an option for out door dinning that was covered and gave views of boat lights on the even though it was evening. If you are military, it's less the 2 minute from Niantic any they even have ice cream. If I have time I plan on trying other items on there menu. I absolutely recommend this place.“

Frozen Custard

“We were visiting from CA where our local Rita's regularly has six water ice flavors. The New London Rita's shop has 12 flavors! We ordered peach water ice, mango gelati, blue raspberry gelati, and chocolate-vanilla twist frozen custard. Super affordable (less than $25 ) compared to California prices. Friendly service, easy parking, indoor or outdoor seating. Great way to cool off after a hot and humid CT day.“

They just have a window to order/pickup, with no indoor seating, but there are picnic tables on the side where you can sit. Overall a great ice cream spot!“
