“Love love love their ice cream! Every time we are in the area we try to stop. The queso flavor is the best!“

“I love the environment. it's an amazing experience.“

“Been coming to this creamery over the course of the last 10 years. Never disappointed. Their ice cream is the right texture and their flavor list is immense and never had a bad experience! Even convinced a few friends to come here from Cape May today! They loved it too.“

“Great food and desserts! Strawberry shortcake is amazing!“

“Hangrybear in Kennett is more than just a place to grab a bite—it’s an experience that keeps surprising and delighting us every time. From the moment we walk in, we’re greeted with warm, friendly service that makes us feel like family. Their menu is thoughtfully crafted with a mouth-watering variety of high-quality, inventive options that satisfy everyone from picky kids to food-loving adults.

My wife and I always split one of their seasonal sandwiches and a fresh, vibrant salad that bursts with flavor, texture, and the best ingredients around. Tonight, we enjoyed the crunch salad—our go-to favorite—and savored every bite of the turkey Rachel Sammy special, a perfect combination of savory, tangy, and fresh. Our girls happily split the crispy chicken fingers and gooey grilled cheese, which are always a hit.

To top it off, dessert is an absolute must here! We indulged in pumpkin and Biscoff cheesecake ice cream, each bite a little piece of heaven. It’s rare to find a place that nails both food and sweets so perfectly, but Hangrybear does it with style.

They’ve quickly become a staple in our lives, not just for the food but for the memories they help us create. From Bluey breakfasts to other family-friendly events, Hangrybear has become a tradition we look forward to, a beloved spot in the community where we feel at home.“

“Wow! What a great place! Could not have asked for a better or more satisfying experience. Stopped by driving from NYC to MD on a Sunday and we hit the jackpot. No line. No wait. Got to taste before we selected from a bajillion different tasty flavors & options (soft serve, gelato, concretes, icees...etc). The staff was super friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. A new must stop wherever we are in the area!!!

Kid-friendliness: A kids ice cream dream!!!“

“Nice students help me select organic produce“

“Delightful premises and delicious ice cream. OMG, the Vanilla Salted Caramel was to die for. The waffle cone was so crunchy and flavorful. Loved the setting with benches and tables scattered under a giant beautiful tree and cows on the hillside. Some crazy flavor options too... such as, Pumpkin Mushroom and Motor Oil! Wish I could have tried them all.“

“The best ice cream sundae I’ve had in Jersey!!“

“Ironically, I just read another review that echoed my own frustration at this Rita’s. A few weeks ago, I brought my daughter’s softball team for a postgame treat and was shocked to learn that an option to tip with a credit card doesn’t exist. Glad to know I’m not the only person who thinks this is a bad idea. After receiving such great service, I was embarrassed when I couldn’t leave a tip and had to apologize to the nice girl who gave us such great service. C’mon Rita’s get with the program!“

“This place is amazing! Our family avoids food dyes and limits HFCS but my kids really wanted water ice. Fuscos to the rescue! My kids LOVED it and we took a pint of apple cider donut ice cream to go.“

“Kids love it, wonderful Staff, great product.“

“very good. the crepes were 😋. We had a great lunch. also, the cappuccino was excellent!! very friendly place.“

“I've visited multiple Rita's in the area- this location is the one in which the mobile application has been the most reliable. What's more is that the staff are very efficient at troubleshooting. They did not have a working scanner, for instance, and getting my loyalty info/redeeming a coupon was still no issue. Friendly & courteous staff as well.“

“Great series, friendly staff, food was delicious and served quickly“

“On a recent visit to see Fort Delaware State Park, I stopped at the Ice Cream Parlor for a nice afternoon ice cream break and I sure am glad I did. They have a great variety of ice cream and the employee was very courteous. I'm sure glad I went there and would go there again next time I am there.“

“Best dessert place in Delaware! Their ice cream is on the expensive side but their proportions are huge. I recommend what I got in the photo, very sweet, very delicious. Definitely wouldn’t be able to finish one of these myself so be prepared to share!“

“Everything was so good. The staff was so friendly and welcoming. You can really tell they genuinely care for their customers and love what they do. We will definitely be going back“

“Delicious! Very unique flavors (told they were more traditional Mexican flavors) as well as the usual go-to's. The staff are super friendly, took the time to explain the flavors and give samples!! The ice cream was creamy and refreshing. 10/10, definitely going back. We had Fresa con queso, tequila, mamey and a Mexican raspberry torte mix (sorry couldn't remember the name for the last one). All delicious and the portions were very generous.“

“Always delicious! I thought this during my last visit... I got a double scoop of Grandma Goes Coconuts and felt satisfied when I finished my cup of ice cream. Believe me, that's something to say--usually I want more. Do go and enjoy homemade-like goodness.“

“I Received excellent service! There was an especially sweet young lady named leigha she has exceptional customer service...she always remembers my order and makes it exactly the way I like it! Keep up the good work! I'll definitely keep coming back to the Bear route 40 location for smiles and treats!“

“This place is wonderful!! Not only do they have DO many flavors to choose from the employees are great and have beautiful personalities!! I go to them often due to working in the area but even on my day off you’ll see me there !! Great service great food great water ice. 5 stars for me :)!!!“

“In addition to ice cream, they have tea and coffee, which are available iced or hot. This makes them a viable alternative to Starbucks and Brew Ha Ha. I like to go here as a change from Starbucks and because they are open much later than Brew Ha Ha.“

“Great store. They are my go to when I need to place an order.“

“delicious custard and ice flavors!“

“It's summer so it's obviously gonna stay busy but the line moved pretty quickly and the wait for the ice cream itself wasn't bad at all. High quality ingredients as always and outstanding products! The banana ice cream is my absolute favorite, it's almost an addiction! They have so many unique flavors I wanna try and combos I can see going together well. Anytime I have a chance to stop here, I take it!“

“Was your typical delicious Rita's. Semi crowded and took a few minutes to order.“

“BEST WATER ICE IN DELAWARE and Pizza Perfect!!! We love you Bernie...The Wise Family💕“
