50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Hamilton

“The ice cream is delicious, the staff is friendly and the prices are very reasonable. Tonight we tried the S’mores hot chocolate which was a rich and yummy darker chocolate flavor with the top of the cup rimmed with toasted marshmallow. Highly recommend it on a cold night!“

“i’d give more stars if i could , they are so kind and sweet. especially liz ! in my opinion she needs a promotion,or better pay because she always goes above and beyond. her customer service is impeccable. they also have such a good variety of ice’s and custards. highly recommend the strawberry cheesecake cream ice, and the pistachio custard. (but seriously give liz a raise and some recognition😊)“

“I’ve had a great experience at Yogurtland. The store is always clean and well-maintained, and the self-serve setup makes it easy to customize exactly what you want. There’s a wide variety of flavors, and they’re consistently fresh and well-stocked. The toppings bar is also a highlight, with plenty of options from fruit to candies and sauces.

The staff is friendly and helpful, especially during busy hours, and the overall vibe is welcoming. Pricing is fair for the quality and portion sizes you get. It’s a solid spot whether you’re just craving something sweet or hanging out with friends.

Definitely recommend if you’re in the mood for frozen yogurt.“

“Nelson would be proud! Stopped in today and couldn’t be happier. Yardville Carvel is back to being the BEST! We will definitely be stopping in more often. 😊🍦“

“good stuff and clean store“

“thank you for the ice cream cake for my daughter's 7th birthday“

“Veryyyyy good and professional“

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

“The service was awesome. The ice cream was also amazing. The place looks great and it makes us feel at home.while we were waiting they gave us popcorn no charge. Definitely try salted caramel and mint chocolate chip.“

“Very good experience. Me and my family love to go there all the time. Today we met the owner she was very friendly and also offered to try new flavours. My personal favourite is strawberry cheesecake which i get all the time. Must try driving 30 minutes was worth. Will be back soon.“

“The best iced tea ever!Even the diet tea and other drinks are the best!“

“This place is so cute and the ice cream is amazing! There was a nice range of flavors, toppings, and cones including pink and purple ones. The ice cream is sweet and creamy and the shop itself has so much charm.“

“Ice cream fresh, delicious place is super clean and staff is friendly and helpful ❤️“

“Portion sizes seem to have increased (with prices). Regardless, pricing is fair.This is the best old-time ice cream (and food) stand around, bar none. You can even consume your order dining outdoors at covered picnic tables. Staff is friendly and helpful. I hope Cream King never goes away but hurry since it closes for the season mid-October.“

“Dairy Queen continues to be one of my favorite go-to spots for both meals and sweet treats. Not only is the food consistently tasty, but the prices are also surprisingly affordable — especially compared to most fast food places these days. You can get a full meal (burger, fries, and drink) for less than what you'd spend at other chains, and the quality is just as good, if not better.

Their burgers are always hot and fresh, and I love the crispy chicken strips — they're flavorful, not overly greasy, and perfectly cooked every time. The portion sizes are generous too, which makes it a great value overall.

Of course, you can't talk about Dairy Queen without mentioning the ice cream. The Blizzards are legendary, with tons of mix-in options and seasonal flavors that keep things fun. The soft serve is creamy and smooth, and their sundaes and cones never disappoint.

The restaurants are clean, the service is fast and friendly, and I always leave satisfied without breaking the bank. Whether you’re craving a quick lunch or a frozen treat, Dairy Queen hits the spot. Highly recommend it for families, budget-conscious diners, or anyone who loves classic comfort food done right!“

“We don't often go to the S Olden Ave location but we were pleasantly surprised with the top notch service we received tonight. The two young ladies working there tonight were both very pleasant and friendly, seemed generally interested in providing great service and did a delicious job making our sundaes. We've had less then good service at other local Carvel locations. Very glad we tried going there again.“

“Like a perfect slice of candy store history. Everything is clearly made with love by and it absolutely shows in the quality. I tried the truffles and they were some of the best I’ve had in a long time. My partner tried the ice cream and he promised we’d come back frequently“

“The rotating flavors keep every visit interesting— there’s always something new and delicious to try. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, always happy to offer samples and help you find your next favorite scoop. Such a fun, feel-good spot!“

“*Edited - original review was for a different location, i am so sorry**

Location is great! Staff is friendly and their product is wonderful. Their variety of custard flavors blew me away. Our local location only ever has chocolate and vanilla. High recommended this Ritas!“

“Went here for the first time today and they were locking the door but we're kind enough to let us in. We tried jersey shore flavor and it tasted homemade. The ice cream was soft and creamy, not at all icy. The Carmel tasted home made and not out of a jar. They are open even though it looks closed when you drive buy. Clean and neat. Much better Ice cream than the one by Trenton market“

“I had such a wonderful experience at this Carvel! The owner went above and beyond to make my day during a time when I really needed a little extra kindness. I had just had surgery, and his thoughtfulness truly meant so much to me.
It’s rare to come across this level of care and generosity. You can tell he genuinely values his customers and takes pride in what he does. I will absolutely be back—thank you again for your kindness!“

“Last Dairy Queen in the area. Great icecream and other cold treats. Very friendly staff who have worked there for years! Hurry up and visit before they close for the winter.

Parking: Large free parking lot.

Kid-friendliness: Kids are always welcome.

Wheelchair accessibility: Roll right up to the window and order.“

“ice cream cake is so good here“

“Best Italian ice and gelatos , the kids love them“

“I love Rita's.They have the best assortment of flavored ice. The gelatis are outstanding. And misto's that you can mix diff. ices together with the custard. Please bring back the icecream cakes. We had one & it was the best ever! Thank you very much. Oh yes, when will the be open til 10pm?“

“First off whoever hired to 2 gentlemen who served me today around 6:45, choose correctly. They were both professional, respectful, polite, and on TOP OF THEIR GAME!!! Haven't had Rita's in almost a decade since moving out west. These 2 gentlemen went above and beyond to make my experience rememberable. Thank you guys for taking your time to make my visit top notch. 1000% will be coming back to this location.“

“I had the Oreo cookies and cream ice and it was ahhhmazing!!!“

“I frequent this Rita’s often. Today 6/15/22 I received my order total and I realized it was much more than usual. I asked was there a price change recently. I was told there was a $1 charge for sprinkles!!! This new pricing is not posted on their current menu. Patrons should not be charged for this until it’s visibly posted on the menu.“

“Best Ice Cream in Central NJ in my opinion. Well worth the stop.“

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

“First time getting Crumbl and I was lucky to be able to try the dubai chocolate brownie so good. Can't say much about customer service since I placed the order in the screen they have there and picked up. It was really good I have to say.“

“We just went here to try and the service was excellent as well as the delicious ice cream served! Very creamy, not super sweet, just very balanced. Highly recommend you go try for yourself!“

“A nice ice cream window. No inside to sit at, but a number of tables on a clean patio.. and it across from the river and launch ramp. That also has a gazebo and seats...and nice views.

The extensive Debbie's menu is entirely ice creme ..the street has Italian, Chinese, etc.
BUT MY FAVORITE THING HERE IS: it has something like 30 flavors of SOFT ice creme any time you want!!!! Yup, coffee or. Raspberry or banana soft serve ...most any time“

“I love the brownie chocolate cream ice. The owner is so helpful and kind“

“My favorite is the raspberry chip, but I also mix flavors. The best part is Sweet Scoop has something for everyone. My husband gets the bubble tea, son gets the yummy mango sorbet, and I love the ice cream. The employees are all kind as I sample several flavors.“

“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!“

“Great ice cream and atmosphere! We enjoyed listening to the live music tonight as well!“

“Great, friendly place! Best coffee in area! No known alien abductions, but definitely a possibility!“

“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!“

“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“

“My kids love it here. Nice environment and friendly staff.“

“Great Pizza! Especially Their Chicken Ranch!“

“(Translated by Google) Excellent service and the food is well worth a visit, and the positive energy you feel is a happy homecoming.(Original)Excelente servicio y la comida pues riquisima vale mucho la pena visitar lleva feliz a casa uno la energía positiva se siente.“

“Team Shake Shack Princeton the best!“

“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’“

“Greatest food. Nicest servers!!!“

“Sinceramente, la mejor tortilla de harina que he comido en trenton, personal muy amable, el restaurante es pequeño, pero el sabor es grande, usualmente los tacos de azada son muy buenos ya que la calidad de la carne es muy buena, los helados y granizadas son muy buenos, todo a un buen precio. Sugiero siempre llamar para ordenar ya que tienen muy poco personal.“

“This pizza place is located in downtown Trenton. It's one of the few restaurants left there. They are pretty decent pizza and you can usually get a special of a soda and a slice. The service is really good and they will help you if you need assistance. The pizzeria is wheelchair-accessible they have a slight little bump in the front.

Wheelchair accessibility: It is pretty flat and wheelchair accessible. The counters are a tad bit high“
