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.“

“I used to come here with my little girl. She’d consistently get a vanilla cone with cherry dip. That was her favorite. She’d always let me have a bite (in exchange for a bite of whatever I had, of course).

I love you Lilly“

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

“Went to Fresh Tiki Bar in Somerville for ice cream and wow, did not disappoint. It’s rich and creamy, you can just tell it’s made with good ingredients, not the cheap stuff. Not overly sweet either, which I loved. The tropical flavors were a fun twist, definitely not your average ice cream shop. Portions were generous too, no complaints there. Staff was super friendly and fast. Great little spot for a hot day, already thinking about my next visit. If you’re around Somerville and want something sweet, this is the move.“

“🍦 Great little spot for ice cream! They have outdoor seating with a cute little table where you can sit and enjoy your treats. The prices are very reasonable. We got 3 “kids” size plus a waffle cone for around $15! Each cone had 2 scoops, so the portions were good. They also let you mix and match flavors, which is a nice bonus!

The staff was friendly, the ice cream was flavorful and the place looked clean. Definitely a nice spot to stop by when you’re craving something sweet! 😊“

“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!!!“

“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.“

“Delicious, great service, kind and attentive. Out of all mango places in the area of 500 mi it’s the best! Oh, yes, and if the kid needs to do ap physics class, it’s quiet and cozy to study too. Physics sounds much better with ice cream!“

“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!!“

“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.“

“Absolutely incredible custom cakes!! I have ordered several different cakes from them so far and am currently ordering another for an upcoming event. They go above and beyond to make your vision come to life. Super talented! I could not recommend them enough!!! Every one of your guests will be talking about your cake and asking where it came from!“

“Dari Delite is seriously one of the best local ice cream spots around! The ice cream is delicious, the portions are generous, and there are so many flavors and toppings to choose from. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the whole place has such a nice, classic local feel. It’s the perfect spot to stop by with friends or family when you’re craving something sweet. Definitely recommend giving them a try you won’t regret it! 🍦🤍“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Nice family owned ice cream parlor. The owners are very nice people, and I am glad to support them.
I usually go for the soft serve, which is quite good. There can be a wait during peak hours, but the line moves fast. Outdoor seating only.
Closed off season“

“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!“

“I had a great experience at Pineberry Juice Bar in Plainfield! The atmosphere was clean, welcoming, and full of positive energy from the moment I walked in. The smoothies and juices tasted incredibly fresh, and you can tell they use high-quality ingredients. Everything was flavorful, refreshing, and made with care.

The staff was friendly, patient, and helpful when recommending drinks, which made the visit even better. It’s the perfect spot if you’re looking for healthy options that still taste amazing. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending this place to friends and family!“

“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!“

“I've tried a couple of mochi donuts here and they are all amazing! Not too sweet and the flavors all hit the mark. I've recently stopped by and noticed they had Christmas themed donuts, which is think is so cute, they would be great to bring to a party or to gift to someone.“

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,!!“

“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!“
