17 Best Ice Cream Shops near Mount Olive

“Hands down the best ice cream I’ve ever had! I’ve been out of the area for over a year and was just checking to see about getting some shipped to Florida, but it doesn’t seem so! I’m a Grahamsterdam and Chocolate Cake girl. Must try this place if you’re in North Jersey — so, so good!“

“PEANUT ALLERGY FAMILY!! Let me start off by saying I love love loved the ice cream here from day 1. The staff is wonderful and super attentive, but last night was above and beyond. I went for dessert with my oldest son and wanted to bring some back for my 8 month old to share with me. We just discovered my 8 month old has a peanut allergy and we aren’t sure what other nuts he might be allergic to yet. I told the staff all of this. The gentleman who made my order went ABOVE AND BEYOND to make sure that ice cream was safe to share with him (of course I know there are no guarantees when you are eating out). I can’t tell you how much that meant to me since allergies like this are new to my family and I. I cannot thank them enough!! They gained a customer for life.“

“Delicious homemade tasting ice cream and friendly staff! I'm a chocolate peanut butter fanatic, I've tried it from everywhere, and this place has the best chocolate peanut butter around. Plus my 3 year old daughter broke her ice cream cone within a few minutes of getting it, which broke her heart. The friendly kid working was kind enough to replace it for her. It was our first time at Champs, but it's definitely going to become our weekly spot. Also, very cool that it has a drivethru!“

“Rita's Ice Cream is a delightful treat that truly hits the spot on a hot summer day! The selection of flavors is fantastic, and each one is packed with creamy goodness. I particularly loved their unique Italian ice, which offered a refreshing burst of fruity flavors. The service was friendly and efficient, making the overall experience even better. Whether you're a fan of classic favorites or adventurous tastes, Rita's Ice Cream is a must-visit for any ice cream lover. Highly recommended! ??“

“My favorite place to stop at on the lake for an ice-cream. We usually paddle up to the docks on our SUPs (stand up paddleboard). Grab a cone of real (Jefferson Dairy I believe) ice-cream and then back on the lack for some awesome paddling.
Highly recommended for a quick bite, all kinds of tchotchkes, signs, toys, games and a bunch of other stuff that I believe are locally made. It's a must visit, especially for those that want to revisit simpler times.“

“I have nostalgic memories from childhood about Friendlys from when I lived on the East Coast. Now that I'm old(er) I wanted my kids to experience what I did as a kid. The food wasn't anything special - typical American diner fare - but the desserts are what I remember and also what my kids will too! The staff here was friendly (fitting) and patient with my kids as they looked over their dessert options. A good time was had by all!“

“I always stop when I'm in the area. Owners are truly grateful for their customers, and the servings are what you'd expect if not more. Only problem is the road noise if you want to sit at the tables.... but not much they can do about that“

“Last review posted is a lie! I was there! The doors were locked because it was after hours and the employees were serving the 2 parties (of 8ppl) that walked in while the store was open! Next time check the hours before hand, and know hours vary on holidays! You should be ashamed of yourself for lying!“
