“If you ever need a cake I highly recommend! Super accommodating and so talented!“

“The Fro Yo cafe in Matawan is my happy place. I love the decor and the nostalgic atmosphere. The frozen yogurt is delicious and authentic and the topping bar is always so clean and organized with lots of variety. I especially appreciate that the fresh fruit is consistently high quality. Their attention to detail with customer service is exemplary! It's the little things, like having a plastic rewards card instead of a paper one and the more premium cup and spoon option, that make Fro Yo Cafe such an enjoyable experience. The staff are really accommodating, helpful, and friendly! I recently went in when Sydney and Derek were working and they both made my experience so seamless and positive. Sydney goes the extra mile to assist customers and is clearly very competent at her job. It does not seem like any of these details should matter at a frozen yogurt cafe, but honestly coming to Fro Yo Cafe can be the highlight of my week sometimes. I believe all the intentionality of the staff contributes to that 5 star experience!!! It's Fro Yo Summer!!“

“Cones & Crepes is a beautiful dessert spot in East Brunswick. My kids love this place.They can’t get enough of it.
Their crêpes are made fresh to order, with a great selection of toppings and fillings, from classic Nutella and strawberries to more decadent options. The ice cream and milkshakes are also a hit—rich, creamy, and full of flavor.
There are also other shops and restaurants in the campus.Whenever we come in this area to eat this has to be the dessert place.“

“I frequent this Cold Stone when we’re on the way home from visiting family. It’s become the kids favorite ice cream stop. The staff is friendly but we always seek out Michael when he is working. Michael is great with the kids and they look forward to seeing him when we stop in. He makes the best milkshake recommendations, too.“

“Causeway Ice Cream is still one of the best things about South River! Before my visit I saw their post about the World Cup special flavors and I knew that I needed to try them!! The same delicious ice cream I grew up eating and the flavor instantly brings you back to your childhood!! The Portuguese seradura and the Brazilian brigadeiro were absolutely out of this world!! I only wish I could've brought some of it back to Texas! Definitely a stop worth making time for!!“

“This is a locally owned, seasonally open, dairy queen. This site only offers ice cream, unlike larger restaurants. Greg, the owner, employs local kids and is a very friendly local business owner. Highly recommend dropping in and supporting local.“

“Love the location right on Main Street. Plenty of outdoor seating and it's nice to walk around Freehold with a cold treat. The custard is rich and creamy, and the Italian ice has real fruit flavor. I got a gelati (custard layered with ice) and it hit the spot.

Only complaint is they were out of a few flavors when I went, which seems to happen often at this location. Also a bit pricey for what you get.

Still a solid spot for dessert on a warm night.“

“Ralph’s is open for the season! Sooo good!“

“Best homemade ice cream ever! I had the coffee flavor and was not disappointed 🤤“

“Updating my review based on the owner’s response. While our first visit on a Sunday morning was disappointing due to being overlooked while staff focused on prep, the management response was prompt, direct, and genuinely accountable. They acknowledged the mistake, explained the situation, and took full responsibility without making excuses. It’s clear they take hospitality and feedback seriously and want to make things right. We’re willing to give them another try based on how professionally this was handled.“

“We took it to go!! Product is so fresh & 😋“

“Good ice cream. Friendly service. What’s not to like.“

“Best ices and the staff is so friendly They will always get my business.“

“To sit back and relaxing place“

“I like this Carvel. They are always very friendly and patient when my minivan pulls up with a family of eight into their drive thru and are confused about what we’d like to order. Either they are very friendly or they have perfect game faces.

They usually have exactly all the flavors and toppings each of us like. They are quick and accurate with each of our orders once’s they’ve been placed. Of course I recommend it and I’ll definitely be back.

Carvel has childhood memories for me I’m glad I can share those with my own children with one of the ones nearest to me.“

“Never been, but it was great !! Never had custard - it was so creamy and harder than ice cream !! The service was sweet too !! I’m thrilled to see the buckets 🪣- definitely handing these out to my family and friends ice cream 🍦“

“Thank you Four Boys in Farmingdale for a delicious birthday cake that I ordered there on July 19, 2026. The cake was coffee and vanilla ice cream. It was freshly made and enjoyed by our family! We have traditionally ordered this same cake for several years in the past and it never disappoints!“
