13 Best Ice Cream Shops near Dewey Beach

“Delicious, fresh ice cream.I really dont understand some of these reviews stating it's too expensive or the portion is small. It's worth every penny.And this just in, prices have gone up for everything you buy now. It's the new economy people voted for. This is a seasonal business. Appreciate them serving you, and say thank you. ??“

“Double Dippers is a locally owned and operated ice cream shop that has been serving up delicious ice cream since 1984. They offer a wide variety of flavors, including both traditional and unique options. You can also get your ice cream in a waffle cone, a sundae, or a milkshake. They are known for their signature "double dippers", which are two scoops of ice cream served in a waffle cone. They also offer a variety of other treats, such as ice cream sandwiches, gelato, and frozen yogurt. Double Dippers is a great place to go for a delicious and refreshing treat. They have something for everyone, and their friendly staff is always happy to help you choose the perfect ice cream. We had two young elementary school children who wanted ice cream when we were here after Jungle Jim’s water park in Rehoboth Beach so we ended up here. I was here with my family of five for our first time. We were hoping for some local home made ice cream, but we ended up with some very good Hersey’s variety of ice cream. I have enjoyed Hersey’s ice cream in the past. It is quite good. The shop’s location is off the main street. Many ice cream varieties were on display. We were the only people here when we arrived. We all ordered single scoop ice cream in waffle cones or cups. I enjoyed my single scoop of Whitehouse Cherry ice cream in a cup, which had lots of cherries. My ice cream was creamy and tasty. Our young server was very accommodating to serve us from her counter. My total cost was $29 excluding gratuity for the five of us. I would return here again, although I prefer a more local home made or farm ice cream.“

“The Agape Creamery is just one of the attractions at the Millville Boardwalk complex, which also includes a large arcade and 18 hole mini golf course. Both ice cream and golf tickets are sold in the front building, and the arcade is the large building in the back of the lot. There's a rotating selection of a dozen or more ice cream flavors, including seasonal items like Pumpkin Roll this past Thanksgiving. Even during fall and winter months they have a steady stream of customers. The golf course is well maintained and has cute decorations for the holidays. It is challenging enough that adults will have fun, but not too difficult for children to play also. My only complaint was that the music playing over the speakers on the golf course was very loud, and I would have appreciated it being a bit softer.“

“Love this place. The hand dipped ice cream is delish and there are a ton of different flavors. The water ice is so good and they have a lot of good flavors of that as well. They also have soft serve and blizzards. They only accept cash. Get a punch card!“

“Every time we are the boardwalk, I have to get a orange sherbet cone. It's yummy and helps to cool you off. They have other flavors and you can get different size cones depending on how hungry you are. I will repeatedly come back and recommend trying this spot.“

“Chocolates and ice cream - chocolates are tasty, as is the ice cream - would have given five stars if the line for ice cream was handled faster - now that Royal Treat is closed it seems as if lots of people have migrated to Kilwins - which is justified for taste reasons but Kilwins needs to increase the number of (capable) staff on the ice cream counter to manage the increase in the number of customers“

“Mmmmm mmmmm sooo good! You can have your Dairy Queen and all their selections for sure but if you want delicious frozen custard then this is your place! They have a great selection of flavors including pumpkin! John Bros is a long last Delmarva boardwalk tradition so you must go if you've never been!“

“BEST FUNNEL CAKES ON THE BOARDWALK! Every beach place that I’ve been to that have claimed to be “funnel cake” spots have not compared not even close to this place! Other places funnel cakes have been overpriced & nasty salty funnel cakes that not even the powdered sugar could save them! But these don’t even need powdered sugar because it is amazing just as it is! They are also affordable! There was a wait but it was worth every second & would 100% go again and wait a while for it(they did have a long line so I understand why it took long)!“

“We love a good burger, these are some of the best we've ever had! My wife rarely eats many of her fries and I usually finish hers off. Not at Hammy's, she finishes them off herself! The seasoning is perfect and the fries are always done just right, not alway the case for freshly hand cut fries. The burgers are perfect for a good appetite, great flavor and fresh toppings. The cheese is delicious as well, the cheddar had a nice sharpness to it. The rolls are delicious, the only thing is suggest is grilling the buns, we think that would make a great burger perfect! We haven't had room for a shake, but watching them get delivered to the other tables certainly makes us want one, the presentation is amazing! We're also animal lovers and enjoy looking at all of the dog pics on the wall.Good job Hammy's!“

“one of our fam’s funnest traditions when we summer in town is the daily pilgrimage to this old time creamery. clearly the coolest gig for summering high schoolers—don’t forget to tip for the college fund! speaking of tips, here’s a pro-tip. the door isn’t locked — just tricky and sticky.“

“This was a surprising but wonderful experience. It’s a little out if your way, but the gelato and amazing smoothies totally make up for your journey. I got a mix on a gelato and fruit smoothie which was sensational. This place also offers meals, but the gelato and ice cream was a big hit for me.“

“Great ice cream right on of the boardwalk.Lots of interesting ice cream options. Tons to choose from...indeed something for everyone: ice cream, sundaes, snow cones, drinks and milk shakes. Soft serve options too!Efficient and friendly staff.“

“10/10 definitely recommend!!! It’s so clean, the people are soooo nice, very welcoming, and had the best service!! Definitely will be going back and recommend everyone to go here!!! The water ice was a perfect flavor and very consistent!! ? I’m so excited for this summer with Rita’s!“
