Many flavors, unique offerings, options for milkshakes, and agreeable pricing make this an obvious stop for anyone enjoying a scenic walk around town - and it's just across from the boardwalk! An easy recommend.

My husband and I stopped in for an ice cream yesterday. Adorable little storefront serving Hersheys ice cream (my favorite). Proportions were good. I gave them 4 ⭐️ s bc they had very limited flavors and my personal beef…the ice cream was fairly soft. It melted very quickly. Remember, this is hand dipped ice cream so it’s not supposed to be super soft like the soft ice cream that comes out of the machines. And while it was quite that soft, it was pretty close. I had the chocolate and my husband had maple walnut and oatmeal cookie. He said his flavors were very good but also on the soft side. Parking very close by was limited. But there seemed to be additional parking slightly further away. They also had cute little benches out front that they customers could sit on and enjoy their ice cream which we did. I didn’t take any photos bc I was busy getting my dogs situated. Cute place. Definitely worth stopping in.

Great ice cream! They even have dog ice cream. We sat on the porch and enjoyed our treats after a nice little hike at the Wetlands Overlook Park

Awesome place, huge selection and great customer service. One night we didn’t arrive until closing time and the ladies still took care of us! We’ve been back 5x in a month since moving here.

Good ice cream. Great porch with benches to sit and enjoy the ice cream and walk the Broadwalk in North Beach, Maryland, see the Chesapeake Bay white enjoying the ice cream. All around delicious!

I took some kids to this place after a weekend of camping, we stopped through NB for ice cream, the guy in the picture was soooo rude to us, he called himself checking me, after I ordered one sugar cone and 3 regular cones, he made off as if he didn’t know what I meant by regular cone, I wanted to walk out, but I didn’t want to disappoint the kids, he told me to take the cones that he had already made and get out, then he goes oh I actually have to charge you, to prevent any further racial discrimination, I gave him $20.00 he wanted three more dollars, when the ordeal really started because he didn’t think I could afford the ice cream. I gave him another 20, then had to wait close to 5 minutes before he provided me my change. This experience devastated the kids, they still say Auntie I hope we never meet anyone like that again. I heard that North Beach was a racist little town, and that’s why I will keep going back, however I will never visit this nasty little ice cream shop again.. I can tell by the comments that nothing is done about bad experiences at this place.

I am a local living here for over 10 years. I love this place as they have good ice cream and have a variety of things to order. Always will be part of the community.

visited today, the worker seemed put off that we ordered a milkshake and then when we got the milkshake it wasn’t good, too much milk and very thin for a $10 milkshake. I couldn’t finish it, wasn’t worth the 2 sips I could manage
