12 Best Ice Cream Shops near Wantage

“Stopped in randomly after Christmas tree cutting. This place did not disappoint. The place was very clean and appealing. Simple but clearly you can tell this was no ordinary burger joint. Had the dry rub wings to start and let me tell you I picked right. The lemon pepper and Old Bay were quite flavorful, I didn’t even dip the Blue cheese condiment. The fries crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. The burgers burst with juicy flavor with every bite. I substituted for the Turkey in my Swiss Mushroom burger. Missed the gator bites and in the words of the eternal terminator “I’ll be back”. Kudos to the chef and inviting hostesses and wait staff.“

““A Must-Visit Classic Creamery!”

We absolutely adore this classic creamery! From the moment we first passed by, we knew it was a spot we had to try, and when we finally did, it completely lived up to the hype. Every bite was pure joy, and we left wishing we had discovered it sooner!

The Rum Raisin, Black Forest Cake, Brownie Butter, and graham central station flavors are highly recommended—each one is rich, creamy, and bursting with flavor. And don’t forget to add hot fudge and wet walnuts on top for that extra indulgence 🔥.

I only wish I lived closer so I could bring home quarts of this incredible ice cream. If you’re in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by—you won’t regret it!

“Very friendly staff, she was on her own but she handled my large order kindly and with accuracy. The food was great, I always love the chicken tenders and Texas toast. Blizzards were made great and very full of toppings. The indoor seating area is cute with wooden booths, the bathroom is outdoors and it's 1 unisex restroom. Only fault is the door doesn't lock but it was clean and surprisingly warm. Overall a great place for lunch and a treat.“
