50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Livingston

“I came here because I love the Haagen Dazs Ice Cream brand that you buy at the store so I decided to come here they have a wide variety of flavors and I got the strawberry since that’s my favorite Haagen Dazs flavor the ice cream tasted good but it was really hard and did not taste as good as the pint it was still really good but it’s expensive so I wouldn’t go out of my way to come here“

“Very tasty treats and is very good priced the only thing is the waffle bowl price is on the waffle cone spot which to be fair it did say “waffle bowl” which I did not see but the price tag should be moved. But besides that it is a great place“

“So awesome they are now in Livingston - I used to travel 35 miles to get to it till they closed, and no other option but to go to NYC! Now they’re in my neck of the woods 🌎“

“Highly recommend. This kid Kole Corcoran is a real gamer. Dude really knows how to whip up a blizzard. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a harder worker than him. Side note: kid is absolutely jacked. Ive began to notice that this review has became more centered around Kole, but I really just can’t help myself. This kids potential is unmatched, and if he keeps up at this for another couple of years I think he could really run the block as district manager. Haven’t seen a better talent since LeBron broke through to the NBA. Call me crazy, but I think he can draw comparisons to a young Tiger Woods.“

“Food is always tasty,,, but waited over 50 minutes today for my order of 2 burgers, fry, and drink.... that’s unacceptable.“

“it is really good I definitely recommend“

“Best ice cream shop in Essex County if not the entire state of NJ. You can taste the difference in quality, creaminess, ingredients, no artificial flavors. Small micro batches made with natural ingredients and real flavors. Great owner and staff. Very nice people who go above and beyond to help create a wonderful experience. Small space but the flavor is large. They are getting ready to launch their second storefront in Lyndhurst. Go check them out. You won’t be disappointed. Favorite flavors include: Strawberry Baklava Chocolate But all are incredibly good!“

“Have been wanting to stop for the longest time. Finally did tonight. The food was fantastic! We were lucky enough to sit in the booth reserved for The Soprano Family!! Made the experience that much better. Nice to see the spot were the final episode was filmed but if we lived closer we would come back for the food!! So glad David Chase picked Holsten’s!!“

“Absolutely LOVE Applegates! Its a NE NJ staple! Been going here for years, as an MSU alum, and now that my friend lives relatively close, we always make it a point to get ice cream, year round! Yes its open all year! They let you sample new flavors, and dont skimp on the portions. All homemade!! Plenty of parking however during peak times it might be really hard to park, so go early and frequently. A MUST FOR ICE CREAM LOVERS!“

“We recently hired Danny’s Soft Serve Ice Cream Truck for our event, and it was absolutely perfect! I actually found them because they’re always driving around our neighborhood, and everyone gets excited when they hear that music coming down the street. So when it came time to book an ice cream truck, choosing Danny’s was a no-brainer. The service was super friendly, the ice cream was delicious, and the whole setup added such a fun vibe to our event. All of our guests, kids and adults loved it! Danny was punctual, easy to work with, and made everything feel effortless.“

“Amazingly delicious ice cream served at a perfect temperature. No matter what flavor I try it taste delicious. Service is great too.!“

“Just a little too overly cautious with the covid-19 for me but the ice 🧊 cream 🍦 was good prices and service pretty decent“

“On behalf of the Mount Pleasant PTA, We would like to express our sincerest gratitude to Guerriero Gelato for their incredibly generous contribution to our recent schoolwide event. Your support played a significant role in making the event a resounding success, and we are truly grateful for your contribution to our school community. Thank you once again for your kindness and generosity, and we hope to continue working together in the future to support our students and their education.“

“Cute little spot in the heart of downtown Little Falls. The ice cream prices are decent, around $6 for a small. The quality of the ice cream isn't bad either. There is parking in the back of the building on Old Morris Canal Lane. Worth checking out and a nice addition to Little Falls.“

“el helado de chocolate con oreo“

“The ice cream is delicious and there are so many good options! It’s just so delicious 😋“

“friendly people serve you sweet treats. it can't get any better.“

“it was good“

“Awesome Gelato and Outstanding Service every time! I had the Affogato paired with the Hazelnut Gelato, and it was absolutely amazing. The Sorbetto Was Delicious!! The Cookies are also Good and make a great treat on the side. Definitely a spot I’d recommend to anyone looking to satisfy their sweet tooth!“

“Best ice cream around!!! Friendly staff Very clean“

“I finally got the chance to try Crumbl Cookies and I’m so glad I was able to try the lineup for this week. The cookies were delicious, Kentucky butter cake and sticky bun were my favorite. The pink velvet and Banana upside down cake were tasty as well. The staff was nice, and I didn’t have to wait long for my order even ordering ahead. One of selections ended up being sold out and the workers decided to give me a free cookie. I’ll definitely be back, I can’t wait for next’s week lineup.“

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

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Hidden Gem in NJ – Salaam Ice Cream Parlor is a Must-Visit
it’s a full experience. The place is vibrant, clean, and welcoming, with a unique cultural charm that sets it apart from your typical ice cream shop .
The ice cream in question? rich, creamy, and bursting with flavor. Whether you’re into classic vanilla bean or want to try something new . every scoop is crafted with care and creativity. The waffle cones are crisp and honestly addictive.
What truly makes Salaam stand out is the exceptional customer service. The staff is friendly and patient. You can tell they genuinely care about the community and the people who walk up to get icecream.

Whether you’re a local or just passing through, Salaam Ice Cream Parlor deserves a spot at the top of your list. It’s more than a sweet treat—it’s a place that brings people together.“

“great cookie“

“The take out process is brilliant. Nothing better than a couple of quarts of McCools ice cream to have on hand! Order online and pick up at the curb.“

“Great ice cream and soup!“

“The ice cream here is excellent! The boba however needs some improvement. I’ve had it a few times months apart thinking it would be different, but unfortunately that hasn’t been the case. The tapioca isn’t soft enough meaning it’s not chewy throughout, so it has a bit of a bite to it. Also, the boba is always mostly ice.“

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

“I have not physically been to their store, but have watched their TikToks and live stream.( J did an absolutely stunning job with the cakes she was making today. She did happy birthday cakes, to streamers, to a gory unicorn cake that represented a Halloween theme. She is very fast handed and very detail oriented when it comes to making those cakes come to life! She also went over how she makes roses on cakes as well which as her least favorite part, was my favorite part. It was pretty fascinating and captivating learning more about the art of cakes! We also were able to see her role from cake making, to her customer service abilities. In my opinion she was pretty kickass! She is very spunky and very funny. Mike has cultivated a very positive workplace where they have fun with the job, which is what it should be about. My strongest advise is don’t knock it till you try it for yourself! Don’t listen to others opinions until you have witnessed them, their cakes, and other goodies for yourself. Not everything online is what is seems! Go check them out!(:“

“Decided to stop in after a tour visit to Montclair University and receiving a gift card for Christmas. Everything was delicious. We ordered brisket fries,cheese fries, smash patty melt, Montclair Blue Burger, build your own burger and 3 shakes. Everything was amazing including the burger buns (fluffy and airy). I wish they were closer to us, Old Bridge could definitely use a really good burger place.“

“The best ice cream in the area. I would place some chairs and some sort of umbrella in the front or a bench simple, so people can seat, that could add a better atmosphere to the business. But the food is incredible delicious.

Vegetarian options: Vegan

Dietary restrictions: All vegan and ? plant based.

Kid-friendliness: Small portions.“

“They made a gender reveal cake for my husband and me, and we absolutely loved it. The details were beautiful, and you can tell they put real thought and care into making it perfect. We were so happy with how it turned out and would definitely order from them again.“

“Service was off the charts, you order and barely have to wait to get your food... atmosphere they do a good job working with the small environment they have making sure it looks cool and provides company . The food was off the charts , I recommend getting the chili cheese dog with banana peppers deep fried and a root beer , fair prices for everything and they even deliver will be visiting again and this deserves a 5 star review“

“The Best“

“Good donuts, great staff, wasn’t sure what to get and they were able to walk me through getting something a little custom just for my taste. It’s always so bright and cheerful inside. Oh and the donuts are made fresh??? Amazing!!! (Try the cinnamon sugar donuts trust me)“

“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.“

“Las hamburguesas 👍🏼 estaban riquísimos y las papas con tocino“

“This place has amazing Protein Shakes, delicious/healthy food, and healthy fast working Energy drinks. From The Food to The Drinks she makes everything from scratch, all the ingredients she uses is vegan base and nothing harmful towards the body“

“The lady working days here made my birthday! I wish I had gotten her name, but she was so sweet and so helpful. She made just what I wanted for my retro throwback birthday. I love Carvel, and this woman made me remember why I loved them as a kid.“

“Always delicious. I would highly recommend ordering a freshly made ice cream cake. Totally a different experience than picking up a frozen cake @ supermarket for not that much more. They need minimum 24 hrs notice 4 ice cream to set. Can also customize. I prefer no whip cream & instead get fudge & crunchies. Always fresh & delicious 😋“

“Great price, nice size, clean & friendly.“

“ricos los helados también él trató al cliente“
