47 Best Ice Cream Shops near Southington

“Amazing ice cream parlor! Was in the mood for a soft serve hot fudge sundae and Pat's did not disappoint. They have both soft serve and ice cream. Parking can be tight in the front but there's space around back. Some seating inside with plenty outside. What makes this space special is the people - always friendly and smiling!“

“I was having a party for my son and a guest was gluten and dairy free and wanted her to have something special too! I had seen this bakery on Facebook and live 5 mins away so it seemed a perfect opportunity to try. I purchased a chocolate zuchinni cake for the little girl and while there I grabbed an Oreo tres leche cake for myself. LET ME TELL YOUUUUUUU!!! That Oreo cake was OUT OF THIS WORLD! I will absolutely be back for treats here and will recommend them to anyone looking for something sweet, whether gluten free or not. Seriously, get here.“

“Great ice cream. Love this place“

“My 4 year old loves the toppings bar. It’s our family’s choice for a cold treat 🍦“

“What an amazing experience!! The cascading waterfalls, scenic walkways, and covered bridges shaded by gorgeous Japanese Maple trees is such a zen mini golf experience. They have something for the whole family including a wooden train and wooden ship play area. There is a beer garden if you want to stop for a cold brew, food, and Italian Ice and ice cream. We had such a great day!“

“We happened to come in on a busy night. Tina was our server. Her and the Manager were professional and handled the crowd with no problem. All our ice creams were perfect and it was still a pleasant environment even though every booth was full! Will definitely come back again“

“The food was AMAZING! very flavourful. The service was great. Everyone was very attentive and made sure we was taken care of. Thank you . We can't wait to go back. Let's not forget the fresh Lemmon squeezed lemonade ?. MUST VISIT!“

“service %100 Perfect Good Price and the quality of the products“

“Chicken wings are DELICIOUS!! Definitely will eat here again.“

“Tried this place for the first time last night, and it was delicious! I had the Dubai Chocolate flavor — you taste pistachio in one bite, coconut in the next, and chocolate in another — a perfect blend of flavors, yum!! My husband had the banana flavor and loved it. Generous portions & reasonable prices Also shoutout to the young employees! We were there at 9:15 pm and it was still busy, but all the staff were smiling & positive & friendly! 😊 Cute old-fashioned decor inside, a few benches outside. Will definitely be back!“

“A nice visit opening day followed by ice cream. The grounds were kept pretty well and even with it being pretty busy things moved well. An average sized lot with a single course of 18 holes. The holes were all fairly simple in design. But less frustration from my son thanks to that. We had a great time. A nice family owned spot.“

“The lemon ice is the best“

“Great Ice Cream. Going back on Thursday“

“First time visitor, the selection is great and the service was excellent. They have custom cakes, dog friendly treats, and generous portions. Ice cream tasted fresh and the area was clean. Would definitely come by again when craving ice cream in the Kensington area!“

“Not only is this ice cream shop serving amazing treats that are delicious with great service, but now they have a Food Truck to serve the yummy ice cream as well. We got the Scoopys Truck for our daughter’s birthday party as she loves their ice cream. It was a huge hit with everyone there and as always the service was great!! Highly recommend hiring them for your birthdays, corporate events etc! Thank you Scoopys!“

“I recently tried the chicken parm grinder at Mad River Creamery & Deli, and it was a really solid choice. The chicken cutlet was nicely breaded, tender, and held up well under the sauce. The marinara was flavorful — tangy with a hint of sweetness — and there was a generous amount of melted cheese that pulled everything together. The bread was fresh and hearty with a nice toasted soft crunch to it , the kind of roll that didn’t get soggy after a few bites, which made the sandwich feel substantial but balanced. I liked that there was a good ratio of chicken to sauce to bread. Service was friendly and efficient, owner welcomed us and provided free ice cream samples as we waited for our grinders ( husband got the steak and cheese for his 3rd time ) being a deli, the portion felt more like a meal than a quick snack. The atmosphere at Mad River Creamery & Deli is welcoming — cozy and laid-back, perfect for grabbing a bit with a friend (or after getting some ice cream). Already know what I want when I return . Thanks again !“

“This place is an absolute find!!! Love the ice cream absolutely delicious 😋 😍 we will definitely be back. Loved the Strawberry Banana. Dubai Chocolate, and Mango Ice cream“

“We purchased an ice cream cake for our daughter’s birthday and it was beautiful and delicious! They were extremely accommodating with my daughter’s picky taste! Highly recommend using them for your next cake 😊“

“So glad we found out this was here! Great customer service! Very friendly staff. The establishment was very clean and of course the popcorn smell is sooooo good walking in. I like that they gave different seasonings for the popcorn too. The Dippin dots were fresh and didn’t have like freezer burn like the packs you get at the vending machines. Loved that they had a variety of other options as well for shakes and stuff! Fun place on a whim! We went on the 4th of July and it was quiet (which I love). We’ll be back“

“Thank you so much for making our end of the school year and start of summer event in the neighborhood a great success!! We can’t say thank you enough to Dave for making our night so memorable. He took all the precautions to make a socially distant outdoor party comfortable, safe and seamless for our guests. Everyone enjoyed a great yummy treat! Nothing like Rita’s.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Crumbl Cookies is excellent! The cookies are always fresh, soft, and full of flavor. I love how they have different flavors every week, and every cookie I’ve tried has been amazing. The staff is friendly, the store is clean, and the desserts are definitely worth it. Great experience overall — highly recommend!“

“Food is good like the new menu“

“Best ice cream I've ever had. I knew when they opened up 2 minutes from my house it would be dangerous! Great flavor combinations and always fresh.“

“A little pricey, but the high quality of the ice cream is absolutely worth it. I highly recommend Praline's over several other local shops for that very reason. We will be back A LOT lol Ice Cream is my weakness and now I need to try every flavor 😋 Great timing as summer is coming quickly!!“

“Absolutely Great and extremely cute ❤️“

“Cupcakes are very good. Not too much topping and cake is moist. Friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend!“

“I'm originally from Texas and I was raised on food this good and well prepared, but usually you had to be invited to a Sunday cookout with your buddy and their 50 closest relatives for this level. The service is great, the food comes out quick and fresh, the flavors are top notch and very authentic for South Texas/ Northern Mexico. We've been twice and we're excited that we've found actual Mexican cuisine up here. Who would have thought Wallingford would have such a gem! Wallingford is for Foodies I'm quickly finding out.“

“Lisa, Kayla and the team were awesome creating 75 ice cream cupcakes for my grandsons 3rd Birthday party. They were decorated perfectly with the Disney Cars theme of Lightening McQueen. The adults were so impressed having something unique and the kids were excited having a Lightening McQueen treat… thank you for adding that special touch to our party.“

“Rafael at the Newington location was great it was my first time there he was super helpful and the burger and fries were great the location was nice and clean great experience will be going again 5 stars“

“I'm new in the Bristol area. One day I decided to come eat at friendlys and ever since I've been coming here. They are friendly here, the food is always fresh, neatly served and delicious. I love it and so does my 9 year old daughter. I'd recommend friedlys to others any day , and I do actually. My niece comes here too now with me all the time

Vegetarian options: I see they have broccoli and beef bites I haven't tried the new item yet but I'm sooo looking forward to it ! Yummy

Parking: Parking is free and enough space

Kid-friendliness: The kids love it. They are kind, smile and laugh with the kids and they serve them what the kids ask for. It's so sweet

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access for wheelchairs and enough room space to move around.“

“productos innovador y una excelente atención“

“Super friendly staff! A must see at westfarms, great gelato and smoothies made with real fruit! Great to go with your Sally’s to go

“Very nice stop on a hot evening ( :“

“excellent sundaes ! great service 👍👍“

“Loved 😍 this place my daughter's favorite but some ruin it by not realizing you pay by Weight. And teenagers started eating before they paid & ruined everyone experience. You cant be charged by you already ate if its by Weight. Common sense.“

“Nice little place 8 tables or so outside.. My grandson and I shared a medium sundae as a treat price is right ice cream was great approved by my grandson...“

“We have been sleeping on these ice cream cupcakes for years, WHY DID I JUST DISCOVER THESE! They have them available for order, or often just in the freezer up front. 11/10, honestly so good! And a great deal! Staff is always lovely as well.“

“The frozen yogurt was good, though it was a bit more frozen and firm than other places I have been to. The store was very clean and nothing gross stood out. The service was average overall, but they were ready and when it came time to check out. The best part of the shop was definitely the atmosphere and decor. It is the nicest looking frozen yogurt place I have been to. Prices were about average compared to other frozen yogurt shops. Overall, it is a solid spot I would visit again.“
