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“

“We went there once and the place was packed with noisy kids. We left after telling an employee we'd come back.
A week or so we did go back there and were greeted by a young man who I believe was the manager. He apologized for our previous visit and thanked us for coming back.“

“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!!“

“Soooo many amazing flavors“

“Not only is the ice cream top notch, the service is equally unmatched! Customers are quickly served with the staff providing that service in a friendly and polite manner. Make Curley’s your next destination to satisfy your craving for a treat!“

“Best ice cream and cookies in Westfield!“

“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.“

“Caputo’s is hands down one of the best ice cream spots around. The ice cream is insanely creamy, super flavorful, and you can tell it’s made with real quality ingredients. Every flavor hits, whether you’re sticking with a classic or trying something new. The shop has such a friendly, welcoming vibe, and the staff is always great.“

“Thank you for sharing your delicious ice cream with our Staff for Teacher appreciation!“

“friendly staff, delicious ice cream and beautiful Christmas trees!“

“Saw this gorgeous little boutique in the mall, and I had to stop in!
The presentation of the chocolates and gelatos are eye catching and organized. I love the displays for Easter and chocolate eggs are my favorite!! Especially the mini Lampone eggs. I grabbed many mix & match chocolates along the wall which are paid by weight. The employee named Angel was very kind and helpful explaining all of the options and recommending gelato flavors which made making a decision much easier for me.
I chose a gourmet baby cone with pistachio and it was scooped to perfection! I will be back for more soon :)“

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

“It's Rita's, I mean come on, 5 stars is a guarantee. It is a snow cone, ice cream fusion. Only negative could be the fact you may have to wait in line a bit during peak hours because, well, it's that damn good 👍

“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.“

“Delicious ice cream and great staff!“

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

“I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream, and guess what? My sister and I finally visited Applegate Farm! It’s so sad that we’ve been just 8 minutes away since 1999 and never made it. But hey, better late than never! I decided to come on Father’s Day to try their Graham Central Station and Cookies and Cream flavors. They were absolutely delicious! I even went back on a solo trip a week later just to try the Graham Central Station again, which is my absolute favorite. It’s so good that I might get in trouble with these several trips I plan on doing this summer to try all of their other flavors, but hey, what’s wrong with a little treat now and then🤭? I’ll definitely be back again and again! 😋“

“el helado de chocolate con oreo“

“I had vanilla ice cream in a cone with the chocolate dip. 1 thing I can say after all these years the ice cream had not changed!!!!“

“Caught a hot day for a ride and decided to track down some gelato. Bienvenue totally delivered. The staff is super helpful, and the prices are pretty reasonable.
The best part was sitting out on Church Street to eat it. It was kind of a vibe. Great experience all around; highly recommend if you're out exploring on two wheels or two feet.“

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

“Great coffees and nice staff“

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

“No contest. DQ and Last Licks are good, sometimes necessary in the pinch. But, Scoop Coop? Legendary. They just know how to nuance the nuance of soft serve...and the homemade hard flavors are consistently delicious. A sweet balance and perfect mouth feel. Service is of same high, joyful standard.“

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

“We recently celebrated my daughter’s 10th birthday at SOMA Sweets, and I honestly can’t say enough wonderful things about the experience!

From the moment we walked in, everything felt warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully put together. The space itself is charming and perfect for a kids’ celebration - bright, fun, and full of sweet details that made the day feel extra special.

What truly stood out, though, was the owner and her team. Their kindness, patience, and genuine enthusiasm made all the difference. They went above and beyond to make sure every child felt included and had a great time. It’s clear they care deeply about what they do, and it shows in every aspect of the experience.

The activities were engaging and age-appropriate, keeping a group of excited 10-year-olds happily entertained (no small feat!). And of course, the sweets and ice cream were absolutely delicious - beautifully made and a huge hit with both kids and adults.

SOMA Sweets made everything feel easy and seamless. I was actually able to relax and enjoy the celebration alongside my daughter, which is the greatest gift.

If you’re looking for a unique, joyful, and well-organized place to host a birthday party, I wholeheartedly recommend SOMA Sweets. We’ll definitely be back!

Thank you, Monica and team, for making my daughter’s birthday so memorable!“

“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.“

“it was good“

“Great place! I stopped by for some ice cream and had a really good experience. The girl at the register was very polite, friendly, and helped me choose — she suggested some flavors and made the decision much easier.

The ice cream itself was delicious, you can really taste the quality and freshness. There’s a wide variety of flavors and good portion sizes.

I’ll definitely come back again and highly recommend this place 👍“

“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.“

“The young lady who took my order today was wonderful. Polite and didn't rush me and my granddaughter. Thank you.“

“It's the bomb....great flavors and service...yeahhh“

“10/10 service, i personally LOVE crumbl. One male worker was very tall and generous he also greeted us when we walked in. after i recieved my order he had generously put a bunch of dubai in my cup which made my day even better. would say i’d come again but i have already.“

“Great ice cream and soup!“

“great cookie“

“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!(:“

“The ice cream is delicious. You can tell that it's store made, and made fresh. Unlike most ice cream shops today that just buy their ice cream, you can tell the freshness in all of their ingredients.

It's especially a great place to go with the kids. They have a fenced-in area where the kids can play on the giant rocking chair or on the basketball court that they have in the fenced in patio.“
