26 Best Ice Cream Shops near Edgemere

“Our favorite Sunday sundae place! Love all the ice cream flavors and toppings. The weekly specialty sundaes and milkshakes are so creative and absolutely delicious! The picnic tables by the water are a nice touch too.“

“so good the chocolate is the best ever“

“Love this ice cream! Such an asset to the north east!“

“So this place rocks... From the minute I walked in, I was made to feel like i'm at an old school restaurant... The food was crafted with care and love and tasted amazing!!! The handmade fountain sodas were incredible. the black cherry soda is a must try!!! The hand spun chocolate shake at the end was amazing!!! Mom loved the chicken salad sandwich. I really enjoyed my meatball sub. And I can't wait to get back for half price burgers on friday!!!“

“I have been going to this place since my dad first brought me here in 2000. This guy remembers his regulars even after the season ended and opens up the next year! Now i finally get to take my own kid here for her first snowball! He is very generous with the syrup and toppings. Well worth the money and the experience they give you. 10 / 10 will be going again.“

“Absolutely great experience, great ice cream. Highly recommend this place! Owner operated, love to see it! Please try this place! 5 star experience!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Why why why have I put off trying this place for so long? It is in one of the most annoying parking lots in Pasadena (small and always full, prepare to drive around waiting for someone to leave), but I have walked by the store many times when getting dry-cleaning or picking up wings at Wingman or getting a local beer at Hysteria. Well, I have been missing out - we finally stopped by (got the last parking spot) and went in to find a very clean and cutely decorated local ice cream shop, full of pride with all their locally made flavors (probably 30+ available today), frozen cookies/waffles/ cones, and lots of cakes. Not just your normal standard flavors that everyone has either, but some unique and fun creations we have never seen (ex. Blueberry Pound Cake, Maple Chocolate Chip). They also have a wall of probably 40+ other flavors that they have made in the past and can be made again with 3-4 days advance notice, talk about customer service!! For the flavors that lend towards mix-ins (ex. cookies), they have abundant and delicious additions and not just minor accents. The staff were friendly and offered tastes and served up generous servings. Prices are very similar to other local scoop shops like Bruster's. Other than the parking lot, the only down side is that due to the strip mall location, they only have 2 small bench seats outside (and nothing inside) for eating your purchases. Overall, our group of 4 was thrilled with our options and the high quality of our selections and will definitely be back. Give them a try!!!“

“Great little local place to get ice cream. the only negative is that a lot of the hand dipped flavors taste like mint. wish they were better about keeping it separate“

“cotton candy is the best expsecially with vanilla custard“

“the guy working right now 3/29/21 @ 3pm lol he is amazing!!!“

“Like that you can buy syrup directly from them. Flavors are good and sugar based.“

“Always have a great experience here at every location! Been my goto snowball place for last 2 1/2 yrs! Never disappoints always hits the spot with the shaved ice!“

“Great place for ice cream! Large selection of items with great soft serve ice cream, some of the best around. Something for everyone as my one son who prefers shaved iced can get that here while the rest of the family gets ice cream treats. There is places to sit outside or inside and you can order at a counter window both inside and out. Best of all the prices are cheap for what you get. We love coming here.“

“We have snowballs here all summer long and still in September they never get old.. so many flavors to chooae from, and soo good. They have perfect shaved ice... never melted and never chunky. The marshmallow's texture is perfect even when it's in the middle..it doesn't ever get too chewy. The icing on the cake is the prices. They are beyond reasonable, and even better, there's a place to sit and enjoy your snowball without a lot of noise. Love this snowball stand!“

“I just tried the banana it taste like it has real banana pieces in it wow one of the best flavors and of course chocolate peanut butter coconut cream strawberry cheese cake and I won't go on.anybody out their reading this this was on my bucket list for almost three yrs and what a surprise makes snowball absolute compared to (ritas) Italian ices“

“When this Rita's in Rosedale first opened, I was 15. This was 1995. It was my first job. I was driving past and my daughter asked me for Rita's. So, I said yes. I was glad to see that they are still employing the youth. I got Juicy Pear. I highly recommend. ?“

“Rita's is my favorite ice cream parlor simply because of their soft serve options! I'm not a big fan of the regular scooped ice cream and much more prefer softer ice cream and foods in general.
My favorite thing there by far is the cookies and cream Gelati! I also love the Choclate - Vanilla - Twist cone (on a cake cone) with rainbow sprinkles! If I'm down for it, every once in a while, I will get the Swedish fish Gelati that has a nice sweet tang to it, and mixed with the frozen creamy custard , it's so perfect!

Now, so far with staff I hadn't had any issues with. According to a lot of other reviews on here, people are saying the staff and customer service are terrible. Most of the time, especially during summer seasons, it's just high schoolers finding a summer job there, and they're pretty friendly to me!

That's all for now, though. I would highly recommend this place, definitely a 10/10!!!!“

“I love the atmosphere and variety of dairy-free selections!“

“So the fat kid inside of me loves Rita's swirl ice cream. I get one of those and I feel like OJ did when he first met Nicole. Sheer bliss.

Alas, the kiddie size. The smallest size. Is like $5 and some change. Five dollars for a kiddie cone? ??‍♂️ And so, though I love Rita's inflation got me messed up and I'll only be frequenting there once a quarter.“

“Love controlling how much I give my Granddaughter. Thank you.“

“huge variety, helpful friendly staff, yummy“

“Great snowballs. Friendly service.“

“G’Lato D’Italia have the best variety of tasty g’latos that you can get, it have a smooth and rich texture that leaves a cold, delicious, refreshing and pleasuring flavor.You can pick from at least 24 flavors and if you are Lactose Intolerance, they do have non-dairy g’latos for you that you can enjoy with no side effects. The products are fresh, the g’latos are made by the store with authentic taste and diligently prepared.I have tried a mix of 2 different scoops of Raspberry and Mango, Pineapple and Coconut, Blueberry and Lemon, and Watermelon, they were all very tasty and amazing, plus the portions are reasonable and worth it.The breakfast is great (bagel and cream cheese, croissant eggs, waffles, other)I tried the waffle and it was so delicious and tasty!!The drinks are good (sweet iced tea, fresh coffee, juices, etc.)The service was good and friendly.I highly recommend that you try their G’lato/Drinks/breakfast when you are in the area and don’t miss on the good experience.“
