50 Best Ice Cream Shops near South River

“Hello everyone, this is a little hidden gem and it’s called CAUSEWAY ICE CREAM the best. I’ve tried different ice cream parlors already and the season hasn’t started. I tell you I keep coming back to this ice cream parlor the sizes are great. The prices are good. The service is excellent. It’s clean. It’s well worth the trip. It’s a little hidden gem you would never know they were there because it looks like it’s on a dead end street with industrial around it take a trip there you won’t be sorry. I come all away from Monroe Township to South River with the gas prices the traffic I still go it’s worth it and I can’t wait until it’s time to open. I tried as early as 11 o’clock in the morning but I guess that’s too early but take a trip I give it over five star reading that’s how good they are. Have a great day.“

“Delicious ice cream and wonderful service!“

“Today was our second time getting take out, ordered two different dishes and both were excellent as were the two we got a week ago. They "get it" when it comes to balanced flavor, variety of veggies and even the way they cut them with a special slicer was perfect. Truly Thai is now our go-to Thai food destination. I hope it doesn't change and they keep up this quality.“

“I used to come there for some ice cream cravings. After trying like 4 different places around, this one blew my mind with pistachio ice cream, which is my personal favorite. Not only that the ice cream itself is properly flavored, it also has nicely sized pieces of pistachios inside. Their waffle cones are a solid finish to the ice cream. I miss this place a lot.“

“I came here yesterday walking around after the mall was closed and the kind gentleman running this little car scooped me and my daughter up one last time even though he was closing up and could’ve told me to come back tomorrow. Can’t forget to add it was absolutely delicious. Didn’t catch his name but he dread locs I think. What a class act! You guys have the right people under your wing. Thank you.“

“Water ice and custard is the best“

“Went there on New Year's Eve and the three ladies working shoulder be getting paid at least time and a half! They worked very hard and seeing the over 21s weren't there these girls should get more than an extra hour. Do your thing Cold Stone!“

“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.“

“I visited Icy Melon in Edison for the first time a few weeks ago, and it was a pleasant surprise. The environment is quiet and low key, which makes it easy to relax but the seating could definitely use an upgrade. It’s not the coziest spot to linger, but the food more than makes up for it.

I had one of their signature crepes, and my friend tried the matcha crepe cake. Both were beautifully presented and absolutely delicious.

We didn’t wait long for our order, which was a nice bonus. You can tell they put care into both flavor and aesthetics in their food.

While the vibe is more functional than cozy, Icy Melon is perfect for a quick dessert run or a casual catch up with friends. If you’re craving something sweet and photogenic, it’s definitely worth a visit.“

“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!!“

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

“This place has amazing fro yo and is a very safe place to go during this pandemic. You order online and within minutes they deliver your yogurt to your car, taking proper precautions. They give your toppings and yogurt seperatly so you could mix and match anything!“

“Just tried Happy Dayz ice cream in Edison - really good! Great selection of flavors - traditional American, sorbet, and some Indian flavors as well (and two sugar free!) Friendly service and fun atmosphere! Open late, even on a Wednesday. (Not to mention cheaper than Carvel) I recommend - go give it a try!“

“This ice is great! And the family service is amazing! Thanks for your help in getting me started with my cart.“

“Went to get my husband's birthday cake last minute, they we're so nice and understanding and didn't complain about the rush. They even put a note on the cake for me and also was able to get a number candle too! The woman on register was really knowledgeable about the selections and exactly where to find what I needed!! Thanks Carvel,!!“

“Great place, with a great variety! My dad is allergic to dairy, and they had a few options for him. I loved that the staff was so accommodating and still tasted amazing.
cash only so make sure to bring cash! Had places to sit and Parking“

“Best ice cream I’ve ever had!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Koko Loko Coffee is such a calm little escape.
I had the pistachio latte and it was fantastic balanced, nutty, and not overly sweet.
The barista was warm and welcoming, which really adds to the overall vibe. Inside, it’s bright, minimal, and quietly buzzing, perfect for reading, working, or chatting without yelling over noise.
Loved the long communal tables and clean, modern décor. If you’re looking for a peaceful spot with great coffee, this place absolutely deserves a 5-star stop.“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“Great Place“

“The most reliable ice cream shop in the area, not only do they have fast efficient and friendly service regardless of the time of year (and they are open year round), but they also have clean inside facilities and restrooms for their customers which not many places in the area can boast of. They also have a convenient drive-thru which is also relatively unique. Definitely stop by with your kids!“

“S.O. TO THE CAKE DECORATOR FOR PASSING THE VIBE CHECK and actually giving me an all white cake that no other location would give me. Girl you a queen keep it up we’re getting more from you for sure 10/10 job. P.S. it was for my wedding cake lollll“
