Village Ice Cream and Candies

Another busy ice cream place but who can not have ice cream at the beach. Very good ice cream served by very nice people!

Overcrowded overpriced bad icecream

As long as we’ve lived in the area, we’ve never had a chance to stop it. Decided to take my kids here after a beach trip and let me tell you, it was the best! The ice cream was great and so many choices! We also got the Dubai strawberries, delicious! But the best part… the girl working there. Super nice and patient (I’m super indecisive) and she was really sweet to my kids. We will definitely be back!

Absolutely the best ice cream & candy store in NC. Such a wonderful family place for vacationers and locals! Love the atmosphere and wonderful staff.

Delicious ice cream and excellent customer service! Lots of young people here working hard during the summer months!

So good!!

There are a ton of different taffy flavors to choose from. They also have a lot of different kinds of candy that you normally don’t see. The ice cream was delicious, and the service was great.

1. The owner was unprofessional and not kind to their employees while I was visiting.
2. The store was so hot that I felt bad for the employees who were working in those conditions
3. It is not worth the money.

We have come here for many years and the little shop is cute with lots of options, but most recently, it was OVERRUN with customers. I felt bad for the people working - lots of them are young people and that kind of chaos can be very demanding for them. The line snaked and curled around the store… it took probably 45 mins to get our ice cream and unfortunately, because of the amount of people and the heat outside, the ice cream was extremely melted (or melted by the time we got to the table outside). It was running down our hands and turned to soup in our bowls. The ice cream itself is very good and I love the waffle cones! Prices are high, but I recommend the waffle cone as you seem to get more quantity for the dollar than just ordering a cup of ice cream. Would definitely recommend this place, but not on a busy night. Try to find a time of evening where the line isn’t so long and I think you’d be happier with the consistency of the ice cream. Reading reviews it’s definitely a town favorite. I don’t like how the owner responds with some attitude sometimes to negative reviews, as I think critiques can only make a business stronger. So that’s the only reason I’d hesitate to frequent a business (if the owner doesn’t seem open to feedback) but I hope she treats her employees amazing, because they are some really hardworking teens!

$7 for this tiny, melted thing? I thought DQ was a rip off, but this place is the worst.

Great local ice cream spot! Love it during the offseason but nothing beats summer night ice cream cones!
