50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Dunellen

“So my family ordered sundaes. We didn't realize how generous the portions were. The quality of the ingredients was very good. We took home what we couldn't finish. The young lady that took care of us was very quick and efficient. She definitely needs a raise.“

“Always had great service and italian ice.“

“Very nice,friendly. Tasty flavors and many choices to choose from.“

“Today was our second time getting take out, ordered two different dishes and both were excellent as were the two we got a week ago. They "get it" when it comes to balanced flavor, variety of veggies and even the way they cut them with a special slicer was perfect. Truly Thai is now our go-to Thai food destination. I hope it doesn't change and they keep up this quality.“

“Best ice cream and cookies in Westfield!“

“I recently visited this place, and as usual, it was quite busy. They offer a much wider variety of ice cream flavors compared to other places. We tried the Toasted Coconut and Almond Coconut flavors, and both were rich, creamy, and full of flavor. The staff was very kind, helpful, and provided excellent customer service. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious ice cream. 🍦🥥“

“I was here today with my girlfriend and I felt like I needed to leave a review. There’s pros and cons to this place but not enough cons to give it anything lower than 5 stars. The ice cream was outstanding! Most ice cream places especially in extreme heat like today (102 degrees) will give you ice cream that is melting before you even start eating! However the hard ice cream we got was hard like it should be and didn't feel like I was eating soup or drinking a thin milkshake. The owner suggested a brownie after we debated getting it or not and she definitely wasn’t just trying to sell it just to make extra money. That was by far the best brownie I’ve ever had and it stayed warm throughout the duration of my ice cream. I can’t wait to be back! As for the cons I just wish they were opened more than 2 days out of the week and we were able to sample a flavor or two before we decide on what we want. I was more than satisfied with the flavors I got but not being able to sample was a downside for me. All and all I would suggest this place to just about anyone! Hopefully they’re around for when I get married.“

“Me and my neighbor decided to try Crispý Cones in Conroe, TX and it was really good!! The staff was friendly, especially Taylor who gave us the whole run down of the menu. Definitely will go back again. I want to try the hot cones now!!!“

“I love all the flavors I’ve tried so far, but the Graham Central Station is incredible!!!“

“delish!! perfect for a hot, summer day“

“Thank you for making the BEST cake!! I came in a few hours before graduation and asked to decorate the cake on each side. The woman who decorated the cake did an amazing job!“

“First of all, yum, secondly-they are so nice! The staff is super helpful and nice! Third of all-they have dog treats! Anytime I'm walking a dog by there and it's open I stop in to get the doggie a treat. Always, always, wonderful. Love this place!“

“Today is Chocolate Milkshake Day! Wishing you a great day filled with sweet moments. 😊🥳😋“

“Jason is honestly one of the main reasons going to Rita’s Ice is such a good experience. From the second you walk up, he’s friendly in a way that doesn’t feel forced or fake—he actually seems like he enjoys being there and talking to customers. It makes a big difference, especially compared to places where workers just rush you through the line.

What really stands out is how helpful he is. If you’re not sure what flavor to get, he’ll give suggestions or let you try samples without making you feel like you’re being annoying. He knows the menu really well and can recommend combinations that actually end up being really good. You can tell he cares about people leaving happy with what they ordered.

He’s also super efficient. Even when there’s a long line, he keeps things moving without making anyone feel rushed. He balances speed with good service, which isn’t easy to do. Plus, he pays attention to small details, like getting orders right the first time and making sure everything looks good before handing it over.

Overall, Jason just makes Rita’s a better place to go. It’s not just about getting ice—it’s about the experience, and he definitely improves that. People remember service like that, and it’s the kind of thing that makes you want to come back.“

“Great ice cream, even while waiting on line there’s a great vibe. By the way, I had the cherry vanilla!“

“The best in town!! Great staff, great prices. My favorite is the cherry vanilla gelati!!😋🍒“

“Lots of flavor variety. Wish the sugar free/ NSA flavors were listed on the menu .“

“Big portions and super fresh ice cream! Service staff rocks!“

“Ice cream - both hard & soft-serve, ice pops, and other frozen treats with all the trimmings and toppings. They also have an eclectic mix of candies and toys, plus a few trinkets and gift items. Prices are comparably reasonable. Located right on Hamilton Street with plenty of on site parking. The service is outside (thru windows), so they're not always open on the colder days. But it's a great place to hang out on one of the benches when the sun is warm. It feels good supporting local business, too.“

“I got the Dubai sundae . It was the best ice cream sundae I’ve ever had. The ice cream was fresh with different textures . Nice flavor and not too sweet. Madison made a great sundae . Highly recommend !!!! I’d add a photo but I ate it so fast!!!!! 😀“

“Yum for the whole family!!! They’ll blow you away with the flavors and large array of selections. Lexie crafted the tastiest most well balanced coke float I’ve had in a long while.👏🙌🙌👏 Be back soon!!“

“The mango sticky rice here is phenomenal! I love Icy Melon sm! There’s always less people than Mango Mango and the food always comes out so quick and good. My bf and I come here at least once a week and everything is always so delicious.“

“Love the place Great selection Great service“

“Saffron in Piscataway offers an exceptional Indian dining experience, blending authentic flavors with an elegant ambiance. The diverse menu, welcoming staff, and beautifully crafted dishes make it a must-visit for food lovers!“

“Very authentic gelato!! This coconut is so smooth and refreshing, it taste like an actual coconut. I love how there’s real coconut flakes in the gelato, I can tell they use natural ingredients. Thank you Stanley for your kind service!“

“Went to get my husband's birthday cake last minute, they we're so nice and understanding and didn't complain about the rush. They even put a note on the cake for me and also was able to get a number candle too! The woman on register was really knowledgeable about the selections and exactly where to find what I needed!! Thanks Carvel,!!“

“I absolutely love this shop, my go-to spot no matter the mood! The staff are always friendly and provide great service.

Best value for quality and quantity. My favorites are Monkey Madness and Moody Mango, and their bubble teas are perfectly balanced not too sweet.

Everything here is consistently delicious and never disappoints!“

“We ordered a cake for our son’s high school graduation and it far exceeded expectations! We thought we may have over ordered and gotten too large of a cake but we only had a couple of slices left because people came back for more!“

“Love love love love love love this place and their customer service wouldn't get ice cream anywhere else. Super family orientated.

“This place has amazing fro yo and is a very safe place to go during this pandemic. You order online and within minutes they deliver your yogurt to your car, taking proper precautions. They give your toppings and yogurt seperatly so you could mix and match anything!“

“Just tried Happy Dayz ice cream in Edison - really good! Great selection of flavors - traditional American, sorbet, and some Indian flavors as well (and two sugar free!) Friendly service and fun atmosphere! Open late, even on a Wednesday. (Not to mention cheaper than Carvel) I recommend - go give it a try!“

“Swirl is still my favorite but cakes did look amazing“

“Honestly, this place is a complete gem. I've lived in the area for close to a decade and finally made the trip on over. The ice cream was delicious and well priced with very friendly and attentive staff. It's time for me to make up for lost time and make this a monthly excursion.“

“Been wanting to try this spot and so happy that I got the chance today. Cute interior and nice staff. Tried the signature pistachio latte and it was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend. Cannot wait to try out other items on the menu next time!

Now for my standard comments. Location is clean and well kept. Comfortable indoor seating. Open parking out front.“

“Humble establishment... she made my kids feel so welcomed... can't wait to go back... please visit 💛“

“Really fun little spot at Berkeley Heights for a sweet treat on a hot day! The frozen custard is creamy and delicious, and the variety of Italian ice flavors is impressive. Service is quick and friendly — great for a casual stop with kids or friends. Just one heads-up: the Italian ice melts very quickly — mine turned into sugary water in no time. Still, overall a nice experience — just eat fast.“

“Went there for the first time ever n met Ava an employee there n I gotta say she has the most AMAZING energy n attitude!! Her customer service by far was best Ive ever had ☺,great smiley employee, great ice cream n shakes I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place n stop by n see her for great service!!! Comin back sooon 👍“

“We recently had my daughter’s soccer team lunch here on a Sunday afternoon. I spoke with the manager on duty the evening prior and it couldn’t have gone smoother. We had the whole top floor to ourselves. Service was amazing as was the food. We sometimes have issues splitting checks because the girls want to sit together away from their parents but they handled it with ease. I’m still dreaming of the delicious ice cream that was the cherry on top of a great experience.“

“gelatis!! ☺️ are the best thing!“

“We had a great experience for our son’s birthday party! Responsive, reliable, and affordable!“

“This place is just amazing! There were 5 of us and we all ordered something different. Everything we got was delicious- we all tried each other's dishes. There's a little bit of everything to satisfy even the pickiest eater. I would just drive her (over a 2 hour drive for me) just to come eat here. I need this place closer to home, lol.“

“Un yogurt delicioso 😋Con mucha fruta y lo que quieras ponerle pues lo preparas a tu gusto me encanta ir a ese lugar“

“We enjoy the mango Italian ice 💕💕 Loved the music and ambiance’s Great for families“

“Just left there and met the owner. Everytime I stop there the Vibes are 💯💯💯. Service is ❤️❤️❤️. Seems like she cares or they care about heir employees. 😎😎😎😎😎Love“

“Went here this afternoon and the gentleman at the window was so nice, patient and accommodating. He even has dog biscuits at the window for your pup! I don’t have a dog but I appreciate the gesture. I’m thinking he might be the owner but I’m not sure. Definitely 10/10 Will return!“

“Hands down probably the best ice scream I've tried in New Jersey. I was visiting from New York with a group of friends and we found this place on a whim just driving by and decided to check it out. I got the Honey Lavender ice cream, which was to die for. HIGHLY recommend!!“

“The ice cream and Italian ice taste the same at this location as every other location, which is good. The problem is the selection. I was just at a Ritas in Pennsylvania and they had at least 8 different soft serve ice cream flavors, including cake batter and pistachio among others. This location always only has vanilla, chocolate and strawberry. Pistachio is my favorite and I got that when I was in Pennsylvania. I also noticed the other Pennsylvania location had more Italian ice flavors as well.“

“Love them. Close to work I love ❤️ perusing shops and decompressing during lunch. Restaurants are amazing“
