32 Best Ice Cream Shops near Ridgefield

“My favorite ice cream and chocolate in the world. Coconut ice cream amazing. Caramels are unbelievable. But, really, everything is great.“

“To make sure the employee serves you the correct portion.“

“Great Vibe! Delicious food and coffee!“

“Amazing food and great hospitality from the staff! Love the public restrooms next to the picnic table area. Just wish I knew about their provided complimentary bug spray before my meal 😭 otherwise, love this spot and cannot wait to come back“

“The tall brunette byth with gold earrings is the most helpful, thoughtful and patient employee. She let me try as many flavors as I wanted and gave perfect scoops. To say I'm obsessed is an understatement. If she's not there neither am I!“

“We just tried Il Bacio for the first time and I can’t believe we didn’t know about them before! It was absolutely delicious— we will definitely go back!“

“It's like being in Italy and eating authentic gelato with EVERY visit to Gelatissimo Artisan Gelato in New Canaan! Grazie Nuccia!“

“Dr. Mike's Ice Cream is BY FAR the best ice cream I have ever had anywhere. No contest. I have been eating it for at least 25 years, and my conviction about this has never wavered. At all. Ever. I moved back to CT from Portland, OR about 2 1/2 years ago (lived there for about 5) and Dr. Mike's was prominent on the list of reasons I moved back. Portland is a food town, and nothing there is in the remote vicinity of Dr. Mike's. Salt and Straw, which has lines of customers around the corner in Portland, is NOTHING compared to Dr. Mike's. I just wish the new owner would pry the original recipe for blueberry ice cream from Robert Allison because Robert Allison changed it a few years before he sold and it is a pale shadow of its former greatness. The original blueberry was maybe the best thing I've ever eaten. But all the core flavors and many of the experimental new flavors are just phenomenal. Best ice cream on the planet.“

“DELICIOUS! Very clean place, staff is very friendly! Love coming here :)“

“The different flavors and size of the cookies , they are math watering“

“The food was incredible. The best ice cream I have ever had. The staff were also incredibly nice and sweet, and wasn’t rude at all when we asked for a lot of samples. The lady working at the front was very helpful and very kind. Also, they have a ton of variety, so anyone can enjoy it. Plus, there is a ton of seating, inside or outside. Highly recommend… 10/10“

“Amazing place !!! Sonny the owner is very kind and friendly 😊👌🏼I highly recommend this place, the frozen yogurt so delicious. 👍🏼 Love it 😍“

“I loved the SWAMP flavor and my kid loved the MUD flavor. Was recommended to us by a sweet couple ahead in line waiting with us.“

“Fun dessert treat! Recommend pistachio and dark chocolate sea salt combo. Delish! Looking forward to coming back.“

“Great service, a consistently yummy treat every time. The youngish guy who writes Happy Birthday on our cakes is great.

1 star off for atmosphere because there is no bench/table to sit at. It’s bright and colorful and clean which is key. There’s always that one customer who gets huffy because he/she was skipped in line. Chill, man! It’s ice cream.

Dietary restrictions: They offer an offer an “oat milk” soft serve (!)“

“Wow, I never thought I’d live to see the day when I’d taste something so delightful! At 82 years old, I walked into Gofer Ice Cream, unsure what to expect. My good friend Andrew liebau insisted I try a “banana split”—said I’d been missing out all my life. Well, I’ll be darned if he wasn’t right.

The handsome young man behind the counter was patient as I squinted at the flavors, though I had no idea what “cookie dough” or “rocky road” meant. In the end, I picked vanilla—simple, safe. But the moment that first spoonful melted on my tongue, I understood why folks go on about this treat. It was creamy, sweet, and softer than I imagined, like a little cloud of happiness.

I sat by the window, savoring every bite, watching children run by with their cones dripping in the sun. Maybe I waited too long to have ice cream, but I can tell you this—it won’t be my last time. Five stars, with all the joy of a new discovery“

They also have a buffet style service if you are in a hurry on you want something quick to go. Bread is yummy, they have conchas and a lot of sweet bread that you can get. Love that this is local and I can have a yummy cheap meal anytime.“

His parents bought it when he was 8 yrs old & then he it took it over when they passed � He mentioned it's his home away from home. He takes pride, and it shows! Yum“

“I say yes and no to recommendations. I recommend only the burgers. Don't order the chicken sandwich. Today we tried chicken sandwiches. Big disappointment. Menu picture looked great. Nice chunk of chicken on a fluffy roll. What we got resembled a chicken cracker on a smashed roll with a smear of mayonnaise and 3 slivers of pickle. I've been there 3 times now and the staff messed up orders all three times. Not just mine, but other customers as well. Although the will do their best to rectify the mistakes.“

Also, thanks again to James whose greeting made me feel welcome and that my business was valued.“
