34 Best Ice Cream Shops near South Brunswick

“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.

“Excellent service, great ice cream, clean environment! These other reviews with one star are ridiculous, and unfair. If you don’t go when they’re closing, you’ll get what you want. These employees work hard, giving a bad review because you waited a few minutes is selfish. It’s bad enough we don’t have anything decent in south Brunswick anymore, don’t ruin it with the good we have! Keep up the good work cold stone!“

“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.“

“Long line, worth the wait. Friendly servers despite the onslaught of customers!“

“The most flavorful hard ice cream! The Dark Chocolate Raspberry Truffle? ::chef's kiss:: We mixed it with the cappuccino (great coffee flavor!) and my non-sweet-eating husband ate his half. The kids had a handful of very colorful chocolate dipped waffle cones to choose from and enjoyed their delicious colorbomb on the bench outside. They got the crazy vanilla (because rainbows are fun to eat!) and it was not only pretty but also had a really nice vanilla flavor. We'll definitely be going out of our way for this stop again! Also, special thanks to the counter staff for being extra patient with us.“

“Love that Olivia's has so many glowing reviews, because she deserves them! It's true - this is the best ice cream I've ever enjoyed. And not just the ice cream, but the chocolate sprinkles are top quality.
You never thought about cheap v. quality chocolate sprinkles before, have you? And right now, I bet you're greatly underestimating how much of an impact can good sprinkles really make to a cone? All the difference, my friend. Like comparing a lightening bug to a lightening bolt.
We are creatures of habit, and haven't ventured beyond the vanilla, or my favorite, the vanilla-chocolate swirl, soft serve with sprinkles, but man oh man, when it's this good, you don't need to reinvent the wheel. That said, after reading these reviews, I am very eager to expand my horizons! The chocolate is superb, you can taste it is distinct from the vanilla, unlike many other soft serve cones, let's be honest.
All this would not be as sweet, however, if the woman who works there wasn't the a lovely, down to earth person, but she truly is.
And clean! This place is immaculate! Peek inside, you'll see what I mean. Just top notch all around. I'm such an Olivia's fan!“

“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 ???“

“Great pastry and wonderful black tea. The person behind the counter was very hospitable and friendly. I definitely recommend the cream puffs.“

“Excellent ice cream, best quality“

“Been there couple of times already. Love the small-town cash-only hole-in-the-wall vibe. Cash-only could be inconvenience for some, but once you know the game, you’ll be ready with cash next time! Love both soft serve and hard ice creams. Friendly staff too.“

“One of the best places for dessert. Great people, great ices, great service“

“I had a great experience at this place! I got a matcha latte and it came out absolutely perfect. The girl at the counter, Laura, was extremely friendly and helpful. She made my drink quickly and efficiently.

This place also has an amazing ambiance to get some work done and plenty of seating. Will definitely be back!“

“Love love love love love love this place and their customer service wouldn't get ice cream anywhere else. Super family orientated.

“We love getting ice cream here, be it summer, winter, or any day in between. Just happened to stop by on the first day of spring, when this location participates in a free vanilla code giveaway (no purchase needed). The only crazy part was the number of folks in line ahead of us. Fortunately, we got the ice cream in 25 minutes. Other times I have tried the Oreo Blizzard ice cream. Simple irresistible. Highly recommend this place.“

“Great, friendly place! Best coffee in area! No known alien abductions, but definitely a possibility!“

“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.“

“What a truly wonderful experience it was coming here. This nice young lady that works there was very polite. There was a bit of traffic building up in there behind me, but she was very patient with me as I surely took quite a while to order a few things for my family members. Everything was clean, and freshly organized. She even made sure to reassure me that the utensils were all cleaned properly because I tend to get a bit skeptical due to the possibility of cross contamination. The ice cream quality was great! Much better than most other places in this area. I never asked for that young lady’s name but she wore a lot of bracelets, and had black nails just like my daughter, which I complemented! I will be back in here for sure!

Will recommend this place for all ice cream lovers!“

“I've tried a couple of mochi donuts here and they are all amazing! Not too sweet and the flavors all hit the mark. I've recently stopped by and noticed they had Christmas themed donuts, which is think is so cute, they would be great to bring to a party or to gift to someone.“

“Such a great Rita’s. They have a wonderful selection of flavors, with more variety in both ice flavors and custard flavors than the average Rita’s. The service is also very good: friendly and timely. There wasn’t too much of a line when I went, so it was very quick.“

“Ice cream was good and the people working were super friendly. I am mainly writing this to sincerely thank the young man working Feb 4 who chased me down after I left my wallet. I had an early flight the next day and would have been stuck!!“

“Amazing ice cream, staff is super friendly“

“The ice and gelato are terrific“

“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!“

“The brownie barge was amazing! We got the apple pie ice cream with it and it was so good! Can't wait to go back“

“love the bubble tea and general atmosphere“

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

“I had the Oreo cookies and cream ice and it was ahhhmazing!!!“

“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.“

“Undeniably the finest ice cream in the entire state. Their vanilla soft serve is on another level, richer, smoother, and more flavorful than anything I’ve ever had. It’s clear why this place has been a beloved landmark since 1981. The secret? A product that speaks for itself, simply unmatched in quality.“

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

“The best ice cream ever! Try a blend-in— my go to is vanilla with Butterfinger! They have a ton of different flavors and toppings. They even have dairy free if you are allergic like my son is!“

“I have had several frozen yogurt flavors. They were all delicious. On occasion, I order a smoothie which also is terrific. The staff at Fruity Yogurt are friendly, courteous, and professional. The atmosphere is bright and cheerful and the store is always meticulously clean. A great place to go in Princeton.“

“Un yogurt delicioso 😋Con mucha fruta y lo que quieras ponerle pues lo preparas a tu gusto me encanta ir a ese lugar“

“I highly recommend this store location. Keith was extremely helpful and knowledgeable with my order. I had it sent as a gift and it was a big hit!“
