14 Best Ice Cream Shops near Budd Lake

“If you’re looking for the best ice cream in Morris County, look no further! Sundaes ice cream is delicious, and there is a flavor for everyone! The owners are super nice and generous, too!“

“Have been a customer for 40 years. Great owner and staff, good food, friendly atmosphere. What else is there to say?“

“Absolutely the best ice cream place I’ve ever had in my life…“

“Hands down the best ice cream I’ve ever had! I’ve been out of the area for over a year and was just checking to see about getting some shipped to Florida, but it doesn’t seem so! I’m a Grahamsterdam and Chocolate Cake girl. Must try this place if you’re in North Jersey — so, so good!“

“PEANUT ALLERGY FAMILY!! Let me start off by saying I love love loved the ice cream here from day 1. The staff is wonderful and super attentive, but last night was above and beyond. I went for dessert with my oldest son and wanted to bring some back for my 8 month old to share with me. We just discovered my 8 month old has a peanut allergy and we aren’t sure what other nuts he might be allergic to yet. I told the staff all of this. The gentleman who made my order went ABOVE AND BEYOND to make sure that ice cream was safe to share with him (of course I know there are no guarantees when you are eating out). I can’t tell you how much that meant to me since allergies like this are new to my family and I. I cannot thank them enough!! They gained a customer for life.“

“The staff here are super nice. The portions are great. The employee let me sample multiple flavors and was very patient, (I was a bit indecisive). The ocean ice cream was 100/10. The waffle bowl tasted fresh. The bathroom is clean and the outdoor seating is perfect. I’ll definitely be returning soon.“

“Update.....they refunded me for the cake. Great customer service.

Ordered a cake (and me and my daughter had ice cream) a few weeks ago and paid cash. Ice cream server who was working the counter and eating her chipolte salad at the register said I didn't need a receipt. Picked up cake today and had to pay for it again because it wasn't marked 'paid'. Maybe take a 'break' and eat in the back room and pay attention to your customers. Not happy and will not return. Cake is nicely decorated and good but not worth paying double.“

“Friendly environment, clean and delicious ice cream... What more could you ask for?“

“Rita's Ice Cream is a delightful treat that truly hits the spot on a hot summer day! The selection of flavors is fantastic, and each one is packed with creamy goodness. I particularly loved their unique Italian ice, which offered a refreshing burst of fruity flavors. The service was friendly and efficient, making the overall experience even better. Whether you're a fan of classic favorites or adventurous tastes, Rita's Ice Cream is a must-visit for any ice cream lover. Highly recommended! ??“

“Great food , great service“

“Their ice cream is always good we enjoy going there.😊“

“Although they're vanilla, it's not as good as the old carvel vanilla, it is still good and the chocolate is just as creamy and good as anywhere. They offer a wide variety of products from hot dogs to huge sundays. Service is always good but may take some time if they have a long line and are very busy most likely in the summer. As someone else noted, they don't seem to honor some of the promotions or deals. The dairy queen central offers, but I really don't care about that. It's just a very good old fashioned treat.That's as good today as it was in the past.“

“My favorite place to stop at on the lake for an ice-cream. We usually paddle up to the docks on our SUPs (stand up paddleboard). Grab a cone of real (Jefferson Dairy I believe) ice-cream and then back on the lack for some awesome paddling.
Highly recommended for a quick bite, all kinds of tchotchkes, signs, toys, games and a bunch of other stuff that I believe are locally made. It's a must visit, especially for those that want to revisit simpler times.“

“Last review posted is a lie! I was there! The doors were locked because it was after hours and the employees were serving the 2 parties (of 8ppl) that walked in while the store was open! Next time check the hours before hand, and know hours vary on holidays! You should be ashamed of yourself for lying!“
