Hand Dipped Ice Cream

“Our company fishing trip was today, and on our way home we were looking for a place to stop for ice cream. We called ahead to be courteous, and they were happy to take our tour bus. We showed up with a DOUBLE DECKER tour bus and Ashlynn and Shannon were amazing. They had us in and out of there as quick as ever for a group our size! They handled things so professionally and politely, and were eager to please all of us. The ice cream and all of the other treats were delicious! There was not one complaint among any of us! We all got a group photo with Cowoline the Cow and everyone was raving about the place on the way home. Thank you, ladies, for making our evening!! It was such a sweet place to stop and we would highly recommend it!! - On behalf of Scenic Ridge Construction... THANK YOU!!“

The owner interacted with us and was super cool and so nice. He was confident we’d come back and I think he’s right lol. We must try the cold subs next. Can’t go wrong with a nice Italian hoagie. Thank you Sonny for your generosity. Praying your establishment will last for many years to come.“

“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.“

Kind, personable, and caring is how I would describe the two young ladies we encountered. They even helped us win some rubber ducks in the claw machines! Not to mention the ice cream was AMAZING. Visiting Woodys Ice Cream Alley is going to be a family tradition now every time we are in the area!“

“Our group had a wonderful late evening meal at Caffé Gelato, and it continues to impress with every visit. Parking is conveniently located right outside the door—a rare and much-appreciated feature in Newark, DE. The food is authentically Italian, beautifully prepared, and consistently delicious. What truly stands out—aside from the attentive (yet never intrusive) service—is the care that owner took into designing the dining space. Even though tables are only a few feet apart, there's an unexpected sense of intimacy and privacy that allows for meaningful conversation without concern of being overheard. It's a perfect setting for enjoying a relaxed meal with friends or loved ones. Dining here always feels like a family meal, elevated by expert preparation—and best of all, someone else handles the cleanup! One of our traditions is taking desserts to go and enjoying them at home with a cup of coffee. Since their desserts come with gelato, the waiter thoughtfully brought the gelato to the table so we could savor it fresh, while packing the rest to enjoy later. It's this kind of personalized, considerate touch that makes Caffé Gelato a truly special place and a favorite destination we'll continue to return to—and recommend to others.“
