Their employees were very rude people. The ice cream they sold was not beautiful at all. I don’t understand why there is such a terrible shop on such a beautiful beach and why people gave such a high score. If I hadn’t promised my daughter, I would never have eaten anything from there. I doubt the cleanliness of their kitchen.

"Visiting York Beach Dairy Bar was a delightful experience! The Soft Chocolate Ice Cream was absolutely heavenly — rich, creamy, and perfectly indulgent. The service was friendly and efficient, creating a welcoming atmosphere that added to our enjoyment. The location itself is charming, offering a great spot to relax and savor delicious treats with family and friends. Whether you're a local or a visitor, this spot is a must-visit for ice cream enthusiasts looking for quality and flavor. We can't wait to return and explore more of their tempting menu offerings!"

CASH ONLY!!! Delicious soft serve ice cream!! Tried vanilla, chocolate, and black raspberry hot fudge sundaes. So good!! The lines can be long but service is friendly and fast. Only downside is no seating unless you cross the street and sit on the sidewalk. Loved having ice cream after sunset every night during our visit!!

Best takeaway around. This place is an institution. Great prices good food simple menu and good people.I hope it never changes.
Vegetarian options: Options are limited to things like grilled cheese sandwiches, onion rings and fries.They are generally happy to make accommodations. I think the grilled cheese is great with grilled peppers.
Kid-friendliness: It's primarily an ice cream stand. I assume that kids are allowed.

No seating, as it's just 1 order and 1 pickup window, and it's honestly not fast food, so takes a few minutes once you order, but the homestyle food prepared in this tiny multigenerational place makes up for it. The owner is on the premises and prepares the food while college kids work the windows and are very helpful and friendly. It's along the 1.5 mile long beach and only one of 2 or 3 similar establishments, closes Labor Day weekend, very popular. My fave is the pepper burger, a large med rare burger on a fresh seeded roll with raw fresh peppers, cheese if you like, $5.25 includes tax and I don't think I could make one for that. Wrapped in foil w/packets of ketchup etc so it'll stay warm to get it to the beach, hotel or cottage. Great onion rings, fries, ice cream, wraps, hot dogs and even the classic fried dough w/powdered sugar for 3 bucks. Try it if you're at the beach you'll love it. Look for the lighted ice cream cone above.

The only reason I gave this place a 3 stars is because of the rude employee they had. When I walked up to the counter the male employee asked me what I wanted. As soon as I started to tell him he kept interrupting me. When I was able to finally finish the first thing on my order he walked away and started making it but then walked out of the place. Another employee came over and took over our order. We had no idea why he was rude to us when we had been nothing but polite. The food we had was good and so was the ice cream. It was cash only. When they brought the food to the window it was the rude male employee again. He opened the screen and looked at me and said “you. Come here.” Gave me my food and didn’t say anything else. Probably wouldn’t go back.
This is a "must have" at York Beach. Summer isn't complete without a soft serve twist.
