44 Best Ice Cream Shops near South Bound Brook

“Yum for the whole family!!! They’ll blow you away with the flavors and large array of selections. Lexie crafted the tastiest most well balanced coke float I’ve had in a long while.👏🙌🙌👏 Be back soon!!“

“We had 3 sets of 3 scoops. 3 different people with 3 very different tastes in ice cream. 9 different flavors. They were all wonderful and exciting. This is not your ordinary ice cream shop but please do not let that deter you from trying them out. Just expect to be a bit adventurous and go for it. They are a small batch artisan style shop with many unique flavors to try. We also grabbed 4 pints of other flavors to take home and try. The owner was awesome, explained all of the flavors and offered samples. The inside was very cute with a good amount of seating for an ice cream shop. Please go and try them out because this is the type of place that would be truly missed by anyone that has visited.“

“My family will often drive here from Madison and Madison has their own ice cream shop. The ice cream here is fresh and tasty. Large portions and you can sit outside and enjoy your ice cream. Friendly staff although they are often very busy. I like the Coffee Oreo and the Chocolate Thunder was really good.“

“I had a really great experience visiting Egypt Oasis today with my two children. The staff was so friendly and attentive. And the owner Mo introduced himself and was clearly passionate about his business. I was waiting on by Ella and she spent the time talking to my son about his sports. The business is very clean and they have so many selections. We all had the rolled ice cream but I noticed people in the store getting boba tea. There is much variety to choose from in a really cool atmosphere with cards at the tables. We will definitely be back!!“

“Today is Chocolate Milkshake Day! Wishing you a great day filled with sweet moments. 😊🥳😋“

“Great family shop; clean, friendly, my grandkids love it. Good quality ice cream in a lot of flavors and they make custom ice cream cakes too.“

“We came past 10:30pm and they close at 10:30, they were super sweet, nice and attentive. They let us in and order everything we wanted, food was amazing, we had the mango crepe cake and drinks 10/10. Packaging is beautiful, reusable and well presented. Loved it, would recommend and will come back ???“

“Thank you for making the BEST cake!! I came in a few hours before graduation and asked to decorate the cake on each side. The woman who decorated the cake did an amazing job!“

“great ice cream so worth the wait“

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

“Love the place Great selection Great service“

“Have yet to experience their food food but I had their ice and it was amazing. Brought my whole family there and I can easily see this being a new tradition to go there every time they make the new seasonal flavors because they got some wild flavors that pair perfectly.“

“Cash only.

Good flavors and plenty of topping options. The line is long, but it's worth the wait.

Ordered the cookie monster with kit kat toppings. I usually get the double chocolate brownie but felt like switching it up. There could be more chunks of cookie dough, but I'm still content“

“Great place! Friendly staff“

“I recently visited Koko Loko cafe in New Brunswick and had the pleasure of trying their Pistachio Latte and Caramel Latte. While both drinks were enjoyable, the Pistachio Latte truly stole the show.

The Pistachio Latte was perfectly balanced, with a rich, nutty flavor that wasn’t overly sweet but still indulgent. It had a creamy texture that complemented the espresso beautifully, making every sip an absolute delight. It’s one of those drinks that leaves you wanting more even after the last drop.

The Caramel Latte was good as well, with a classic sweetness and smooth finish, but it didn’t quite compare to the unique and standout flavor of the Pistachio Latte. If you’re deciding between the two, I’d highly recommend going for the pistachio—it’s a game changer!

The ambiance of the shop was cozy, and the service was friendly and efficient. I’ll definitely be returning to try more of their menu, but the Pistachio Latte is already a favorite.

5/5 stars for the Pistachio Latte alone!“

“Karin was so helpful in coordinating a large cupcake order for my mom's birthday party. The cupcakes were both delicious and beautiful. We did not get a chance to get any pictures because people took them so fast! Karin's bakery also offers gluten free options which were also delicious. 10/10 and would go back!“

“They have the best lemon italian ice. Perfect balance between frozen and creamy texture. I make sure to come here whenever I am in town. Better than anything else I've tried on the east coast! **Cash Only!**

Dietary restrictions: Italian ices are dairy free.

Wheelchair accessibility: 100% accessible although YMMV for counter service height.“

“It's not really summer until you get your dairy quick fix. If you like Magic Fountain however you want to negate the ridiculously long lines then here is your chance. I'm actually surprised this hasn't become a popular hot-spot among the summer ice cream devotees. Only a matter of time before the word gets out...“

“love the bubble tea and general atmosphere“

“Tiny location, packs a pearl.... comedy. ?I love their Thai Tea Boba and their waffles are amazing ?? whether you like croffles or their house made (?) batter. All smoothies I've had have been delicious as well as their Dolgona(hope I'm spelling that right) coffee boba! SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS??tons of parking btw!“

“This was my first time having a mochinut and it was absolutely delightful!!! Their taro mochinut has been my favorite flavor so far. The texture is sooo good. It's both chewy like mochi and doughy like a donut, the perfect mixture of both! Not too heavy and not too sweet. And their variety of flavors is amazing and unique! I can't wait to go back and have some more. I can tell the staff there work hard to pump out all these donuts and with such quality too! Please keep doing what you're doing!“

“Went here on a whim and really enjoyed it. They have a bunch of unique and tasty flavors. I saw cakes for sale, and they sell take-out pints/gallons of ice cream in addition to cones/cups.

The staff was really friendly and helpful in navigating all the flavor choices. Your group can sample up to 5 flavors.

Eight of us agreed this was a great choice and a delicious dessert option.

Vegetarian options: 100% vegetarian“

“Amazing ice cream, staff is super friendly“

“Ice cream - both hard & soft-serve, ice pops, and other frozen treats with all the trimmings and toppings. They also have an eclectic mix of candies and toys, plus a few trinkets and gift items. Prices are comparably reasonable. Located right on Hamilton Street with plenty of on site parking. The service is outside (thru windows), so they're not always open on the colder days. But it's a great place to hang out on one of the benches when the sun is warm. It feels good supporting local business, too.“

“Saffron in Piscataway offers an exceptional Indian dining experience, blending authentic flavors with an elegant ambiance. The diverse menu, welcoming staff, and beautifully crafted dishes make it a must-visit for food lovers!“

“Love them. Close to work I love ❤️ perusing shops and decompressing during lunch. Restaurants are amazing“

“A good, clean,fun & family friendly restaurant and ice cream shop!“

“I was seen very quickly by the staff and they answered all of my questions about sizes and specials. Kyle happened to be the gentleman who helped me. He was quick and polite. A real pleasure. I felt really bad that I was unable to tip him or the great staff there using my card. Knowing that most don’t carry cash after Covid-19 (because let’s be honest, money was dirty before the pandemic) it seems unfair that the staff is unable to get tips via another method. People who work customer service jobs deserve to be able to receive tips for making sure the customers are taken care of. Thank you so much to the staff for always being polite and quick with every order we requested.“

“There were 4 vegan flavors when I went (watermelon sorbet, mango sorbet, oatly vanilla, and oatly latte). I enjoyed all of them. For toppings, I got wet walnuts, which were very delicious, and oreo pieces. There used to be vegan cookie dough bites that I really enjoyed, but I didn't see them this time (there were cookie dough bites, but not labeled as vegan). I would like some more vegan flavors and toppings to make this place even better.“

“DOES NOT RECOMMEND THIS EVENT WAS 11/23/2022, but for some reason review wouldn’t post. And I can only choose does recommend…. But I do not Had a LAUGHABLE experience here this morning, over a misunderstanding about time. I came an about 9:20am to pick up a cake I ordered over the phone about two days ago. I thought she said 9am - 1pm. Clearly not because as I poked my head in I was greeted with extremely agitated aggressive woman who bombard with “why are you here?” Repeatedly. As I tried to explain why I was there. She continued to say she was busy. And in the middle of doing 75 order, she would have never told me to come this early and, why was I there over again. Yes, to a paying customer. When I didn’t even enter the store. I poked my head in. She could have said the pick up times to me again and to please come back later. Since it is too early for pick up. I would have gladly walk out the door and came back at the correct time. Needless to say the owner of this business is a horrendous woman. I will never use this business again and I will encourage everyone I know , to do the same.“

“This place has the best Lychee frozen yogurt I’ve had in my life. I dream about it. 5 stars if they keep it on the menu more cuz it’s been gone for a bit. It’s truly a transformative experience. ?

** update they have the Lychee 07/12 ??? SO GOOD“

“Dining at Stonehouse was easily one of the best experiences I have ever had. From the
moment we walked in, the elegant decor and serene atmosphere set the perfect backdrop for
our evening. The interior design strikes a wonderful balance between sophistication and
comfort, creating a welcoming space that encourages conversation and relaxation. The live
piano player added a delightful touch, enhancing the ambiance with soft melodies that created a
cocktail lounge feel throughout our meal.
Our server, Courtney, was truly exceptional and made our dining experience even more
memorable. Full of energy and charisma, she attended to our needs with a warm smile and
genuine enthusiasm. Someone in our party even remarked,
"She's the best server we've ever
had,
" which was beyond true. Courtney's recommendations were spot on, and her attention to
detail ensured that our experience was seamless from start to finish.
We began our meal with perfectly cooked and flavorful calamari, which was tender and
seasoned just right. It was a fantastic way to kick off our dining experience. We also decided to
share a Caesar salad as our first course, which was fresh and crisp, featuring generous portions
of romaine lettuce and a delicious dressing that perfectly complemented the dish.
For our main courses, we were all thrilled with our choices. The duck breast was presented
beautifully, with a rich sauce that elevated the dish to new heights. I opted for the salmon, which
sat atop a bed of fingerling potatoes and seasonal vegetables. The salmon was cooked to
perfection, flaky and flavorful, making every bite a delight. The cocktails were high quality, and I
want to try more on my next visit. The Boozy Bee was such a nice drink—refreshing and
perfectly balanced.
To round off our meal, we indulged in the desserts, which were nothing short of amazing. Each
dessert was beautifully crafted and offered a sweet ending to a perfect night.
As a special touch, Joshua Weissbard, the general manager, stopped by our table to check in
and presented us with a small keepsake to commemorate the evening. This thoughtful gesture
truly exemplified the outstanding service we received throughout our dining experience.
We cannot wait to return to Stonehouse and request Courtney again. Thank you for an unforgettable evening.“

“The ice cream-period! Whenever I’m on Route 18 and have a taste for ice cream, they’re the go to place for delicious cones and shakes.“

“This was my first time but not my last. The place is small but very nice. The ice cream was delicious and what I enjoy the most they had choco-banana which is banana cover in chocolate. A hispanic type of food. Delicious. Overall the workers where nice and very polite, I will definitely come back but I wish the outside had a better representation.“

“Always had great service and italian ice.“

“I order ahead and pick up. My experiences have been pleasant, as it is usually ready by the time I walk in to pick-up. The staff is nice. I absolutely am a fan of the shroomburger and their fries. I mix mayo and ketchup 1:4 parts to dip my fries in. Highly recommended.“

“Place is very clean, food is absolutely delicious and their smoothies are amazing. I get this around 3-4 times per week and have only good things to say about this place. Food comes out fast and their delivery prep through Ubereats is very good as nothing is ever spilled

Parking: Parking is a bit tough as it is on a very busy street. If you go around the block towards supremo supermarket you’ll be able to find a wider variety of parking.“

“Hood food and a great staff! Located in what is about to become a very impressive town village

Kid-friendliness: More than welcome

Wheelchair accessibility: They have an ADA Compliant sidewalk and entrance“

“Went here this afternoon and the gentleman at the window was so nice, patient and accommodating. He even has dog biscuits at the window for your pup! I don’t have a dog but I appreciate the gesture. I’m thinking he might be the owner but I’m not sure. Definitely 10/10 Will return!“

“So good, You will want to build a snowman. Maybe after a hard day of the office, grab a FROZEN delight. It's never a bad tIme to Let It Snow, Let it snow!We were impressed with service from a 19 year old with a great professional demeanor and a vocabulary to match. Groom this employee, he has the right stuff.“

“I tried to order through Uber Eats and my order got canceled due to out of stock. Then I edited it to get a new cake, and even though I was overseas, they tried to contact me. The replacement cake was fantastic, and the staff were incredibly nice. I can't thank them enough because this cake was so important to me.“

“The ice cream and Italian ice taste the same at this location as every other location, which is good. The problem is the selection. I was just at a Ritas in Pennsylvania and they had at least 8 different soft serve ice cream flavors, including cake batter and pistachio among others. This location always only has vanilla, chocolate and strawberry. Pistachio is my favorite and I got that when I was in Pennsylvania. I also noticed the other Pennsylvania location had more Italian ice flavors as well.“

“Love their custard but they really need to give the customer what they pay for. $5 for a large and they fill it like it's a small. My second issue with this place; consistency is key.“
