48 Best Ice Cream Shops near Franklin Park

“Love their custard but they really need to give the customer what they pay for. $5 for a large and they fill it like it's a small. My second issue with this place; consistency is key.“

“We had 3 sets of 3 scoops. 3 different people with 3 very different tastes in ice cream. 9 different flavors. They were all wonderful and exciting. This is not your ordinary ice cream shop but please do not let that deter you from trying them out. Just expect to be a bit adventurous and go for it. They are a small batch artisan style shop with many unique flavors to try. We also grabbed 4 pints of other flavors to take home and try. The owner was awesome, explained all of the flavors and offered samples. The inside was very cute with a good amount of seating for an ice cream shop. Please go and try them out because this is the type of place that would be truly missed by anyone that has visited.“

“Long line, worth the wait. Friendly servers despite the onslaught of customers!“

“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!!!“

“The most flavorful hard ice cream! The Dark Chocolate Raspberry Truffle? ::chef's kiss:: We mixed it with the cappuccino (great coffee flavor!) and my non-sweet-eating husband ate his half. The kids had a handful of very colorful chocolate dipped waffle cones to choose from and enjoyed their delicious colorbomb on the bench outside. They got the crazy vanilla (because rainbows are fun to eat!) and it was not only pretty but also had a really nice vanilla flavor. We'll definitely be going out of our way for this stop again! Also, special thanks to the counter staff for being extra patient with us.“

“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.“

“Excellent ice cream, best quality“

“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!“

“Great pastry and wonderful black tea. The person behind the counter was very hospitable and friendly. I definitely recommend the cream puffs.“

“This is the second year that we have ordered the ice cream cake for my daughter’s birthday and they did not disappoint. The cake is so delicious and a party favorite! Not to mention the beautiful designs! I will always order our cakes from Blue Sheep.“

“great ice cream so worth the wait“

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

“🍦 Five Stars for a Sunday Sweet Spot!
We dropped by this Cold Stone late Sunday evening, and it was the perfect, low-key end to our family weekend. Since it wasn't crowded, the staff was incredibly patient with my kids as they picked out their favorite mix-ins.
The store was spotless, the service was friendly, and the ice cream was as rich and creamy as ever—nothing beats a fresh waffle bowl when you have the place almost to yourself. It was a great, stress-free treat for the whole crew. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Love the place Great selection Great service“

“A good, clean,fun & family friendly restaurant and ice cream shop!“

“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!!“

“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! 🍦🤍“

“The Gelatis are the best! Usually there’s a wide variety of ice flavors, lemon being my favorite!👍“

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

“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'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.“

“Tiny location, packs a pearl.... comedy. ?I love their Thai Tea Boba and their waffles are amazing ?? whether you like croffles or their house made (?) batter. All smoothies I've had have been delicious as well as their Dolgona(hope I'm spelling that right) coffee boba! SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS??tons of parking btw!“

“The ice and gelato are terrific“

“What a truly wonderful experience it was coming here. This nice young lady that works there was very polite. There was a bit of traffic building up in there behind me, but she was very patient with me as I surely took quite a while to order a few things for my family members. Everything was clean, and freshly organized. She even made sure to reassure me that the utensils were all cleaned properly because I tend to get a bit skeptical due to the possibility of cross contamination. The ice cream quality was great! Much better than most other places in this area. I never asked for that young lady’s name but she wore a lot of bracelets, and had black nails just like my daughter, which I complemented! I will be back in here for sure!

Will recommend this place for all ice cream lovers!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Loved It!

I stopped in for a quick bite and ended up having some of the best tacos I’ve ever had. The barbacoa tacos were incredible—super tender, flavorful, and packed with just the right amount of spice. You can tell the meat was slow-cooked with care. The tortillas were fresh and warm, and everything was topped off with fresh cilantro and onions, just how I like it.

The service was friendly and fast, and the whole place had a great vibe—laid-back but clean and welcoming. If you’re anywhere near this spot and love tacos, do yourself a favor and try the barbacoa. I’ll definitely be back!“

“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.“

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

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

Latest creation
Eclair mixed with cookies and cream and hot fudge topped with cinnamon churro topped with cones crushed and cookie crumbles“

“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!“

“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!!

“Great place! Coffee is amazing and their matcha drinks are the best. If you’re ever craving something cold and fresh that’s the place to go’“

“Visited Kwality Ice Cream and had a really great experience! The Badshahi Kulfi Falooda was the standout — rich, creamy, refreshing, and full of authentic flavors. The pani puri was also super tasty with crispy puris and a perfect spicy-tangy pani. The paan was fresh and made for a nice finish.

Special mention to Madhuram, the owner, for the warm hospitality and friendly service that made the visit even better.

Tip: ask them to mix Pudina and Khata Meetha pani with a little black salt — it takes the taste to another level! Also, if you prefer better flavor, request room temperature pani instead of very cold :)

Definitely a place worth visiting for authentic Indian desserts and street food!“

“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!“

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

“Such a great Rita’s. They have a wonderful selection of flavors, with more variety in both ice flavors and custard flavors than the average Rita’s. The service is also very good: friendly and timely. There wasn’t too much of a line when I went, so it was very quick.“

“Hood food and a great staff! Located in what is about to become a very impressive town village

Kid-friendliness: More than welcome

Wheelchair accessibility: They have an ADA Compliant sidewalk and entrance“

“The food is good I like the oreo drink,but the order took long because people kept interrupting and this family kept on interrupting the lady that kept doing the hard work and she was doing the hard work and atleast put a extra worker to help her“

“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.“

“My wife and I like to get the burgers here which I rate as superior to most in the area, even the more upscale ShakeShack across the highway from them. The real star though are the fries and tater tots which are excellent. Their seasoning is perfect and they are always perfectly fried.“

“love the bubble tea and general atmosphere“

“LOVE THIS PLACE!! The owner is so so kind. Two friends and I were running late one night, and we called to see if they could stay open for an extra few minutes. The owner responded with great kindness and kept the store open. Fruity Yogurt is also one of the only places open late in Princeton. The owner even offered us free frozen yogurt. She said to pour as much as we wanted after we had paid. So kind!! Also very funny and personable. She also told us that all of their flavors are natural, and you can tell from the color and taste! I highly recommend!“

“The best ice cream ever! Try a blend-in— my go to is vanilla with Butterfinger! They have a ton of different flavors and toppings. They even have dairy free if you are allergic like my son is!“

“Undeniably the finest ice cream in the entire state. Their vanilla soft serve is on another level, richer, smoother, and more flavorful than anything I’ve ever had. It’s clear why this place has been a beloved landmark since 1981. The secret? A product that speaks for itself, simply unmatched in quality.“

“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!“

“Literally the only ice cream place we eat 🍦 My kids absolutely love it, and as a mom of a child with a peanut allergy, I was beyond grateful that one of the workers went above and beyond by thoroughly washing the scooper to avoid any potential peanut remnants. That level of care truly means everything. My personal favorite flavors are Amaretto and Toasted Almond — both AMAZING. Thank you for the delicious ice cream and the kindness“

“Had a mix up with a custom cake... but they were ready to go above and beyond to fix the issue. Mistakes happen; it's how a company reacts to them that makes the difference. And besides that, the cake we did get was a hit with the recipient and delicious!“
