9 Best Ice Cream Shops near Wells

“It’s a DQ in a dumpy strip mall but it is DQ nonetheless. Delicious soft serve. We ordered 2 kiddy cones because that’s the size we like. The nice young woman serving us said nothing about our order.

However two older (like us) were behind us and also ordered a kiddy size dish. She told them she wasn’t supposed to serve kiddy sizes to adults but she didn’t care and got them what they wanted. Good for her.

We ran into this ‘rule’ in a DQ in Westbrook, CT. We never went back. Was this idiotic rule set by Warren Buffet? Why is there this ridiculous rule.

We only want a certain amount of ice cream. Other people are on diets. Some have diabetes and need just a small amount.

Stop this insanity now. Glad there was a smart young woman running this place when we went in.“

“Great place and good people, nice wine and cheese for an afternoon snack. Good conversations and knowledge of wines. We've been stopping there for years It just wouldn't be vacation without a stop at the wine and cheese shop“

“Super friendly with amazing flavors!“

“On our way north on Route 1 in Maine from NH to Woolwich, we were disappointed that we weren’t finding any ice cream places that were open … then we saw the sign for Big Daddy’s and we whipped into the level, neatly graveled parking lot. One of us had a cup of Wild Maine Blueberry Pie, one of us had a cup of Maple Bourbon Pecan. Both were superb. Often blueberry-flavored food tastes artificial - not this - this tasted of blueberries, and had plenty of blueberries and just enough pie crust. The Maple Bourbon Pecan was delicious too, and it contained more pecans than we’ve ever had in an ice cream with nuts. We sat at an outside picnic table to enjoy our ice cream, and then went inside to use the rest room. There are more tables in there. The ice cream and selection of flavors rivals our local place (Memories in Exeter, NH)! We might just have to indulge ourselves on our way south … HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.- DON’T MISS THIS PLACE!“

“My favorite DQ location! Great kids serving and always delicious ice cream!

Parking: Just gets full and drive thru sometimes backs up into it

Kid-friendliness: Very Kid and Dog friendly

Wheelchair accessibility: Roll up to order and pick-up window“

“There was a wait/line going out to road but the sign outside said they were the best so we waited. Counter service was less desirable but the scoopers were fast and efficient and more on the smiley peppy side. Blueberry pie ice cream. You must try it! 😋“

“Stopped by just as she opened and I ordered a Maple ? Pecan coffee ☕. Tasted good and warmed me up for my return walk on Marginal Way. Friendly service. Not much of a selection of pastries, just bagels.When I walk Marginal Way again, I will stop by. Friendly service.“
