50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Cliffside Park

“I'm very impressed. I believe this is the best burger chain in the area. The burger concepts are tasty, and they don't go cheap on the meat. You can really taste the quality. Also, I enjoyed the friendly attitude of the father and son (presumably) who operate the place. A friendly attitude and good service is a great compliment to great food. For this reason, I am leaving a 5 star review. If you're looking for a good burger, I would come here.“

“Best ☕️ espresso in Cliffside“

“After having dinner with my daughter at Sedona, we stopped here for dessert. The ice cream was delicious and not overly sweet, which I really appreciated. It had a nice, balanced flavor, and we both enjoyed it. I'll definitely come back next time!“

“I’ve been here twice now, Eddie has been super helpful and accommodating both times. I’m not the biggest donut fan but these are SO GOOD! ?? I’m literally obsessed and so is my family. The store is also really clean too which I appreciate.“

“Great place for breakfast! The bagel and omelette were very flavorful and seasoned perfectly for breakfast. I recommend the freshly squeezed orange juice! The sandwiches looked really tasty. I will come again for a quick bite in the morning!“

“An nicely provocation for the healthy people. Not fear! Dark chocolate, with your property Triptophane, serotonyn, fire on the metabolism to the perfect working process. I'm a vegan and my opinion on the actually assessment market is that already fitted for the vegan customers. The ice cream is wonderful.“

“You don’t have to travel to Italy 🇮🇹 to taste the best and authentic Italian gelato in the city. Venchi is my favorite place if I’m craving for something sweet. Great service with friendly staff. Highly recommended.“

“A few years ago, I was hired to write a series of articles about regional Italian cuisine. Since then, I have been looking for traditional Italian gelato. Until yesterday, I have been consistently disappointed. But this? It was absolutely EVERYTHING I had dreamed about. The prices weren't ridiculous, the bathroom was PRISTINE, the staff were helpful and friendly and it was incredibly, amazingly delicious. My only complaint is that I live too far away from your stores to get it very often. But about that? My hips are less upset about the distance. :) I will definitely be back, though!“

“We happened by last Friday and I asked for a recommendation. I tried the cookies and caramel and it was the best ice cream I've had in a long time! I have thought about it multiple times since returning home from our trip! It's so good!☺️👏“

Thank you, Andrea!💕“

“Finally trying their hot chocolate. It’s amazing if you like straight up melted chocolate in a cup. It’s bittersweet and warm. If you have strawberries, you can dip them in and have DIY chocolate dipped strawberries with great quality chocolate. Grab a cup to-go and don’t waste the beautiful views of Central Park just ahead of it.“

“Venchi Chocolate & Gelato on Columbus Avenue is a must-visit every time we’re in New York City. No matter how many times we come, it’s become a tradition we never skip.

We’ve tried just about every variety of chocolate they offer, along with several of their gelato flavors and their incredible hot chocolates. Everything is made with exceptional quality, rich flavor, and the kind of craftsmanship you’d expect from an authentic Italian chocolatier.

The store is always clean, beautifully displayed, and the staff is friendly, even when it’s busy. Whether you’re looking for a sweet treat, a gift, or simply want to indulge in some of the best chocolate in the city, this is the place.

If you’re walking around the Upper West Side, do yourself a favor and stop at Venchi. Once you try it, chances are it’ll become a tradition for you too.“

“Place is awesome, and love their gelatos and sorbets. My mom loves the Fuji Apple flavored sorbet“

“The food was impeccable. The shish barak stood out immediately — brought fully to life by Huda’s deft touch of spice. Among the appetizers, the bandora showcased heirloom tomatoes at their absolute freshest, while the rakkat achieved a rare and graceful balance between sweet and savory. The kibbeh naya is a must-try for anyone who appreciates raw meat.

Service, courtesy of Ismail, was warm without being intrusive, striking exactly the right note. We will be back.“

“ tried their pistachio soft serve ice cream. Not overly sweet. They have regular ice cream and other types of soft serve. Lots of toppings to choose from. There are ice cream cakes for sale too.

server was friendly

mostly a takeout place with a couple of benches to sit outside“

“They have pretty unique flavors like pineapple basil. The kids scoop is a single scoop and felt like more than enough for one. The small option allows you to choose two flavors. The banana milk flavor was pretty sweet and tasty.

You can try the flavors before you decide. There’s also seating indoors and a bench outside.“

“The ice cream at Tipsy Scoop is amazing. Great flavors. I bought a flight and got to try 4 flavors all delicious. my favorite was the mango margarita sorbet. I definitely plan to go back.“

“Stayed in NYC Hell’s Kitchen for 6 months for work and tried many different burger joint and this is by far the best i have had during my stay. The juiciest tastiest smash patties, best buns, incredible sauce. Friendly staff and atmosphere! Thank you Cubby’s!“

“I’m honestly obsessed with these cookies. They are incredibly delicious and so appetizing. What I love the most is that I’m usually not into sweets at all, but these are just perfect.

They’re not overly sweet — just the right balance. The almond flavor is so rich and comforting, and the cherry adds this slight sour touch that makes everything come together beautifully. It’s such an amazing combination.

I genuinely fell in love with these cookies from the first bite. Absolutely incredible. Thank you for creating something this good — truly impressive!“

“The Best Thai-Food anywhere...#Period“

“I took a gelato tour of Bologna once, and this place could hold its own with them. But it's more of a serious connoisseur type of place rather than a fun family tourist trap. No kitschy flavors. No dressing it up for display. Just perfectly crafted gelato.“

“Love it the area is so welcoming and we didn’t have to wait long they recommended items and helped us pick our options scratchatela was very good. Would definitely recommend“

“I had the the A-La-Mood warm lava cake with 2 scoops of ice cream(Better Pecan & Vanilla) yummy. Be ready to be indecisive because all flavors are delish. You’ll want order a few scoops🍦🍨❤️😋“

“Really delicious- little bit of a line but worth it. Tons of different flavors - went with pistachio and chocolate babka. Flavors are hard to choose from but quality of ice cream is so good. Really loved the quality and service was great . Went with two scoops and really enjoyed- overall recommend“

“Some absolutely delicious Gelato and like frozen desserts. Artistically served as florets on cones. Layered nepolean style in “Gourmet Cups”. Service quick and very friendly. Each time we have been here, the owner/manager has greeted us kindly; even giving treats while waiting in line.“

“Never been before today but so happy we stopped by! Kids were thrilled with the flavor choices and I really liked there was a vegan option! We’ll definitely be stopping in again. 😃“

“My only complaint is that the lone worker today, when I was paying with a credit card (without tap) took my card and tried to use tap. Before she took my card I was going to put it into the card processor. When I pointed out that it doesn’t have tap, she (2x’s) typed my card information into the register screen and it was declined (plenty of credit was available because I got gas with it shortly after). I then used my debit card which she just took from me and again tried to use tap (again not a feature on that card either). She was finally able to put my card information for the debit card and it went through. If she had let me put my card in in the first place there would have been no problem with the original transaction attempt. I feel some of the staff might need better/more training on using the register.“

“Such a cute ice cream spot in Dumont! 🍦 We had such a great experience. The ice cream was delicious, the portions were generous, and there were so many great flavors to choose from. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere was fun and welcoming. Family friendly and they have outside seating. Definitely a perfect spot to grab a sweet treat with the family. We’ll absolutely be back!“

“The Italian Ices are amazing, so good lots of different flavors and even sell pints, great value, wonderful people can’t wait to get them again.“

“This is the only reason I visit Chelsea Market when I am in town.“

“Delicious yogurt great atmosphere ❤️“

“We always saw a long line at this ice cream shop, so curiosity won and we joined the crowd. I ordered a tiny scoop of Caffe Bianco Stracciatella. It was light, smooth, refreshing, and not overly sweet, portioned in a perfectly European size. Completely calorie-guilt-free!!
And yes, my mood instantly improved, sponsored by ice-cream.“

“Hot days and ice cream go together real bad. 🍦🍯

We stopped for a sweet treat nibble, it was my first time having Van Leeuwen. The Honeycomb flavor is sweet, creamy, and the ribbons of light crunch has me hooked.

Yum, get you some!“

“Trying Crumbl was honestly one of the things I was most excited about before coming to the US, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The cookies were fresh, soft, and really delicious. I also love that they change the menu every week—it makes you want to come back and try new flavors.“

“Lucciano’s Gelato never disappoints! Every time I visit the American Dream, I absolutely have to stop for gelato before I leave. It’s become a tradition for me!

This visit was amazing thanks to Kimberly, Samprit, Rafael, and the Master Gelataio, who were all incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Their outstanding customer service makes the experience even sweeter.

I ordered the Peanut Caramel and Lemon Pie gelato, and both flavors were absolutely delicious—rich, creamy, and packed with flavor. The quality is consistently excellent, which is why I keep coming back time and time again.

If you’re at American Dream and love authentic gelato, Lucciano’s is a must-visit. Highly recommend! 🍨✨“
