50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Dobbs Ferry

“Some of the best tacos I've had on the East coast. These are on par with California and Texas tacos. Most of the tacos in NYC and NY and terrible, but not Los Ferchos. This is a great family run deli, with the whole family helping to make super authentic tacos in the back. The staff is super friendly, and they even have a couple tables inside and outside for you to enjoy your food. They also make homemade ice pops and they have some very niche authentic Mexican food items too like Oaxaca cheese and Mexican desserts. Easily the best tacos in the Hudson Valley, and maybe NY too.“

“First time visit, though have passed this very central location many times. Good quality offerings ( I had a lychee green tea) but attention needed to customer service experience and generating footfall. Lots of windows but one narrow door in use; the other blocked off. Desperately needing better connection with passers-by on Cedar St pavements (both sides). The Bee-Line bus passes by. What if riders could be tempted to get off and enjoy a tea or frozen yogurt on a hot day? If possible would opt for larger sliding doors and some cafe tables on pavement. Employees need to be more conscious of incoming customers; I waiting about three minutes before being served, watching the sole employee mix drinks.“

“Went here with my family. I don’t even know where to start first the owner and workers greeted us as soon as we stepped in the door. They gave us samples without even asking us hospitality is just top-tier. I’ve never been to a place like this before With such great customer service . Oh, and taste is incredibly great Prices are absolutely great. Like I said in the beginning, I don’t know where to start. This place is just amazing. You have to come here.“

“One of my friends started coming here months ago so I started tagging along with him and I fell in love with the flavors here my usual is blue raspberry and lemon in frozen drink form when they have it! I even started to bring my girl here recently and she’s very selective on what she likes she now calls it our place. The server there is awesome as well and remembered my previous orders since I’m a regular. This has quickly become my go to spot!“

“I tried two flavors: the Dominican Vanilla + Coconut. It was AMAZING.The place is clean. Staff is friendly.The two (2) complaints that take away a star:Definitely coming back here, but not as often as I would like, because it’s kinda pricey. $30 for two (2) scoops on a cone; and 2 midsized cups.Employees need to wear restaurant caps to cover their heads when serving; specially while styling long/braided hair. I mean: I don’t want that stuff on my food.Kindly work on those, and I would consider adding the 5th STAR.“

“Highly recommend visiting this ice cream shop! So many unique flavors including many Filipino flavors to try and they have one that will likely please everyone. My sister adores this spot and I can see why with the staff being attentive to everyone and the interior being well maintained and clean. My favorites would have to be anything with ube and honey in it and of course their popular gianduja crunch!“

“Daniela's ice cream is my absolute favorite, especially the Coffee Oreo and Peanut Butter Fudge! These are my top Scoops choices. They're not too sweet, made fresh, and you can taste the freshness in every spoon. The strawberry cheesecake is really good too, especially as a milkshake. The service is great too! Daniela's ice cream is my guilty pleasure ❤️? ❤️“

“THE BEST! gelato. This was the best idea for Englewood! I shouldn't rave because it will only get busier, and there is often a line. The experience begins when you step into Bianco Nero. It's as if you stepped into Italy. They offer some delicious flavors , especially chocolate hazelnut. Some flavors are rotated so that there are surprises to entice you. Of course, they have sprinkles and fun cones in different sizes and cups, but the best part is the GELATO!“

“Cookies looked so good we forgot to take a picture of the actual box of cookies we ordered. We got the box of four, Kitchen Sink, Stuffed Nutella, S’mores & OG Chunk. All the cookies were super fresh; hard but soft outside with a gooey warm inside..YUM! My favorite was the OG Chunk (had some sea salt on top) and the stuffed nutella. The kitchen sink was also very good especially with the potato chips but I just wish it didn’t have caramel drizzle on top. Definitely want to come again to try other flavors, but one thing I did have a problem with is the political views on the outside of the door. I do wish I noticed before walking in but I think political views on the outside of a cookie store is not necessary. Other than that, great cookies!“

“My hometown ice cream shop, amazing quality food and amazing workers. Everyone is very kind and the food is awesome. Even if you aren't in Piermont or from there, I highly recommend going to and trying out some of their ice cream and/or shakes. They both are equally amazing, they too are very quick with their work and it is ALL homemade ice cream and even their waffle cones (which are amazing too.) And yes the prices are a bit high, but that's because the ice cream is homemade.“

“The ice cream is awesome. I love going there because the people who work there are very nice. I finally got to meet Erin today. She and Pam are awesome.. it used to be a gas station then it was a flower shop and now a great ice cream place they even have outside seating. It's well lit, and I will keep supporting them..“

“Shoutout to the 2 young ladies behind the counter. A mass of people came to this shop after a comedy show at the Music Hall and they held it down! The Oreo Bomb & Lucky charm ice cream flavors were top notch! Looking forward to coming by as the weather gets warm. 10 out of 10!“

“We visit this family favorite ice cream shop every time we are in town! Love their death by chocolate, rum raisin, pistachio, toasted coconut, butter pecan, strawberry and cookie dough flavors! Haven’t tried the other flavors as we already love our picks and every time we go there we want to eat the same flavors! They have tons of flavors. Parking spots and also a nice area to sit and enjoy the ice creams!“

“I traveled 20 minutes to go to this place and I have mixed emotions, many people describe them as the best cookies but for me they are overpriced, they have good flavor and a reasonable size but not enough to pay a little more than $4 per unit. On this visit I bought a box with 6 units to try them all.“

“The few, the proud,.. Come on, folks! It's Carvel Ice Cream! This location has always been monumental in my life growing up and still today. It would get a biased 5 stars ? on that alone. The ice cream is second to none. Whether soft-serve, traditional, cake, or shake, it's great! Scoops or soft serve in your choice of cones or a bowl, floats, banana splits, a sleeve of flying saucers, and more are there for you to enjoy. They still make the ice cream cakes with the crunches, too. The service is pretty good, and they will allow you to customize your order with toppings, etc. Be mindful and patient of customer surges and the occasional understaffing.The dining space is limited to the two historic, small benches outside the building. Of course, you can sit in your car in the parking lot to indulge in a cool treat. This location in Elmsford is a great stop after shopping locally or passing through regardless of the weather or season. Ice cream is the reason!“

“Amazing staff/service. I loved the atmosphere, it is a fun place to go with some friends, a lot of options to choose from. There isn't even only ice cream! They have many goodies like sodas, candy, and various toppings that are very good! The store was kept very clean as I saw workers constantly keeping up on it. I recommend this to anyone looking for a sweet treat.“

“Love this place!! You literally have to go to view her artistry in making the specialty shakes. I have had a few of them and all are delicious. Not just shakes, refresher drinks and bubble teas, grilled cheese and more. Love her iced coffee too! Very friendly and accommodating. You should definitely go give them a try, you wont be disappointed.“

“Nice little shop. The pistachio had a good amount of sweetness to it. Not overpowering so you can taste the pistachio flavor. Nice bits of pistachio inside the ice cream too so it had some crunch. Would go back to try other flavor. Under $8 for 2 scoops on a waffle cone. Not bad considering it took me like 20 minutes to eat while driving ?. No mess!“

“Delicious and healthy waffles! All sorts of toppings and add-ins are available for these sourdough type waffles, and they do not disappoint! The soup of the day today was beet soup. Delish! One of us had a waffle with chocolate as well, and one of us had frozen yogurt with toasted coconut. All so yummy! Great space, light and simple, great, friendly service! Go for a coffee, go for a meal or a snack! You will be glad you did!“

“Can't beat a place that will make an egg sandwich all day. Grabbed a bacon, egg, and cheese and a muffin, both were very good. The muffin was fresh and not dry-always a concern and the BEC had a perfectly cooked egg. The woman at the counter was very pleasant and helpful. They have smoothies on the menu which not many places have available and they are reasonably priced. There are a few tables if you want to eat in the deli. Hopefully you can snag a spot in Main Street to try this at place out on your next trip into town.“

“I have been a customer of Paleteria La Michoacana for many years. I can confidently say that it makes the best ice cream I have ever tasted. What makes this ice cream truly exceptional is its large selection of flavors.Paleteria La Michoacana offers an impressive array of unique and diverse ice cream flavors that are hard to find elsewhere.Some of the flavors that standout include:Mamey (a tropical fruit)Guanabana (soursop)Jamaica (hibiscus)Uva (grape)KiwiNanche (a tropical fruit)Chamoy (a sweet and sour Mexican condiment)Café (coffee)MangoGansito (a popular Mexican snack cake)Fresa (strawberry)The variety of flavors available is truly remarkable, surely there will be a flavor for everyone.There are two locations, one in Yorkers, the other is in Mount Vernon. Both have the same great ice cream.I can confidently recommend that you try the ice cream at Paleteria La Michoacana. I am certain that it will become one of your favorite places for indulging in a delicious and refreshing treat.“

“I've been to this Carvel before. It is large with great selections particularly of cakes, which is what I went for. I saw a sign for 'Cartwheel' sandwiches with a special Mondays through Thursdays.... buy 1 pack of 6 and get the 2nd a 1/2 off.... so I did.. a great buy. Service was very good, store is immaculate. I highly recommend it.“

“(Translated by Google) The best Mexican ice cream shop in the city of Yonkers, Imperial Ice244 new main st yonkers I recommend it(Original)La mejor nevería mexicana en la ciudad de yonkers la imperial Ice244 new main st yonkers te la recomiendo“

“Great local ice cream place! Blows the bigger nearby chains like Carvel out of the water. I appreciate the fact it's a small business that hires local kids to make money for college. The prices are all fair and the ice cream/milk shakes are delicious!“

“Longofords has THE BEST ice cream. I come here all the time with my family (highly reccomend the black raspberry and coconut mounds). They have a flavor for everyone! Staff was so kind and patinet and constantly cleaning-no wonder the place is spotless. I always come here to gets pints/quarts to bring home as well. 10/10!!!!“

“DQ Old Tappan serves the best Chocolate and Vanilla ice cream, and their peanut butter milkshakes are simply divine. The ice cream is rich and creamy, offering a perfect balance of flavors, and the milkshakes are a peanut butter lover's dream. The service from the two young ladies were great. It was near closing so the place was clean and ready for lockdown. I recommend visiting this location for anyone craving late night cold treats.“

“Hands down, best ice cream in Westchester/Putnam Counties. All home made. Common favorites as well as innovative flavors. Friendly staff. Wonderful, community driven & supportive owners.Great flavors. My favorite is Coffee Kalua; it's so creamy and just the right amount of Kalua taste with bold, smooth coffee flavor. I will drive miles out of my way between family in Westchester to my home in Putnam, just to get a pint to take home and of course a scoop with hot fudge to sit at the tables on the side walk and enjoy. So dang, good! If you're an ice cream snob like me, you'll love it! Check them out.They also sell some old-fashioned candy in the inside shop and they make dessert Crepes. Faaaabulous!“

“Stumbled upon Hey Yogurt today while shopping around Ridgewood with the family. It's clean, had a spacious ambiance, and digital kiosks for easy ordering. We liked that each flavor is made with real fruit and no additives, offering a healthier, tastier alternative to traditional froyo. Even our 1-year-old was a fan. Had a great experience and liked that it caters to both health-conscious adults and little ones.“

“Had one of our few yearly trips to Penny Lick today to treat our peanut allergic son. Ice cream was delicious as always. We got to sample a few flavors before deciding. The gentleman working the counter was amazing as always. He is such a delight and always chats with us. Knows all about the flavors available and helps with deciding what to get. We got to sit and enjoy chatting with him while eating our ice creams, and our son even get seconds after deciding he'd like to try a milkshake- something he doesn't get to do often due to his severe peanut allergy. We are so thankful for peanut free stores such as this, where our son can be comfortable and have a moment of normalcy. If we didn't like 1.5 hrs away, we would visit at least weekly. We normally bring a cooler with ice and ice packs to take pints home, but today we did not have that with us. Love their take home pints!! Will be back soon!! Thank you so much!!Dietary restrictions: Peanut free as well as other allergens.Kid-friendliness: Fun store with cool signs on the walls and in bathrooms. Lots of fun toppings for your treats!!“

“If you’re looking for a simple place to have dessert, King Kone is a solid choice. They have a variety of dessert options which range from ice creams to milkshakes. The staff are very friendly and are always willing to give their input on their most popular desserts.“

“Delicious pizza! Cheesy, fresh and good crust. Love the different salads and wraps they offer too. Excellent fast service. Ordering on the Slice app makes ordering easy. Will definitely be a returning customer.Vegetarian options: Whole menu“

“I love this Carvel. We come from Montvale because we like it so much. Only disappointing thing happened when we ordered a cake for my daughter and birthday. The cake looked like a 10 year old decorated it. Very sparse with minimal crunchies when we ordered extra. The cake also looked smaller than it should have been. Very disappointing.“

“Yogybee in Northvale has become my new go-to spot for shakes and smoothies this spring and summer. The atmosphere was inviting, and the staff and the owner was very friendly and helpful. They offer a wide variety of frozen yogurt flavors and toppings, shakes, smoothies, and even wraps and salads! I tried the strawberry banana smoothie and my girlfriend got the “kill me with chocolate” shake (p.s. add Reese’s to the kill me with chocolate you won’t regret it). We were so focused on our drinks we even forgot to take pictures but now we have an excuse to come back again.The perfect choice for a beautiful day like today I’d give the spot 6/5 if I could!“

“Important to note they charge by cup size and per topping. I didn’t know this when I put a tiny bit of froyo in a cup, and a very small amount of 2 toppings, to see $9.37. If it were simply weighed (as it is in other shops), would’ve been <$6. I think this place is only potentially worth it if you fill your cup up and add a lot of one topping…“

“Great food. The Plain Tart yogurt is second to none. You can't find that kind of quality tart yogurt anywhere else. I literally came from work in the Bronx straight to Mamaroneck to pick up a Quart of the Plain Tart. They make it in-house, and its consistently a top quality product. I would highly recommend Esy Kafe.“

“Saw the cake box in a friend's fridge and Googled it and was curious to check it out myself. Was not disappointed, I went on a Wednesday and look forward to going back next time on the weekend when I'm assuming there will be more choices.Go see for yourself it is worth a trip and then go back.“

“AWSOME loved this place large clean area to eat if wanted to ,help really friendly ,and the ice cream lot favors pick from and toppings and could not beat the taste best ever had in dip ice cream or any ice cream loved it will be going back for sure ???“

“Nostalgic soft serve ice cream shop serving classic sundaes. They still have Wednesday buy one get one free sundaes. Takeout only, no indoor seating. A great place for grab and go dessert after a meal. There's always room for a Carvel sundae! <3“

“We got the gelato in chocolate & tiramisu flavors, mango smoothie, & chocolate-covered strawberries. All were fantastic! The gelato flavor & texture was perfect; the chocolate flavor had small dark chocolate chips mixed in. The smoothie was sweet without being too sweet. They use good quality ripe strawberries. Can’t recommend highly enough that everyone come out and support this great new small business.“

“This shop and it's employees have always been amazing!They take care of you in a timely manner even when it's swamped!!I've gotten so many cakes here for different holidays and events and I'm never disappointed Even if you have to drive a little farther, come here it's worth it!“

“The service is exceptional - when choosing ice cream cakes, always willing to provide advice and take the time to personalize and make each one special. The ice cream cakes are freshly made here and by far the best. Ice cream and shakes are also great at this location. Finally, the equipment is well maintained and sanitary. Carvel does one thing - ice cream - and at Webster Ave it is done right!“

“I visited the Ice Cream Factory in Mount Vernon, NY and I must say, it was a delightful experience. I tried their strawberry grapenut ice cream and it was absolutely delicious! The ice cream was creamy and rich, with a perfect balance of strawberry flavor and chunks of grapenut.The staff at the Ice Cream Factory were friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere was charming. The prices were reasonable and the portion sizes were generous.Overall, I highly recommend the Ice Cream Factory to anyone looking for delicious ice cream in Mount Vernon. Whether you're a fan of classic flavors or looking to try something new, the Ice Cream Factory has something for everyone.???❤Parking: Theres plenty of parkingKid-friendliness: This is the perfect place for kids.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair will not be obstructed“

“This Carvel is clean, the service is excellent! We take the kids there several times this summer, the choices for flavors are all delicious and tasty, we tried almost every flavor over the time that we have been going there, but the treat that stands out for me is the Dasher with Heath bar pieces; for my kids, they love Birthday Cake and either Cookie Dough or Cake Mix. Parking is a bummer, but we pull into McDonald's and run over to Carvel, the service is so quick that you are back in no time.“

“Great local ice cream, very good flavors and great prices ??. Will definitely be returning.I had the Tres Leches Ice Cream as well as the coffee. Absolutely recommend.They have a good amount of different flavors as well as non dairy options including fresh juices if you're looking for something different“

“UPDATE 01/27/23: Looks like they finally got their act together. Clean and well stocked. Thanks!UPDATE 11/16/22: We just went because the website said they had sugar free strawberry. We went. Guess what? They haven’t updated the website in months, don’t plan to and they have no sugar free options.PLEASE SELL THIS LOCATION BACK TO THE ORIGINAL OWNERS. THEY HAD THE STORE RUNNING BEAUTIFUL. YOU GUYS ARE WRECKING IT.This place used to be incredible until they were sold to new owners that have very little idea how to run a 16 Handles. We just wasted a good 45 minutes running around picking people up, only to find out that there was no sugar-free yogurt which every 16 Handles has at least one of. There are certain standards that 16 Handles has in their franchise agreement and these guys are clueless. Please sell the store back to the old owners and restore the great frozen yogurt experience that used to be here. The one extra star is here because the one guy behind the counter is genuinely nice.“

“Where do you go when your team wins their Sat game? For ICe Cream or Frozen Yougart!This cute shop was suggested to us by a teammate and the Frozen yougart was delicious. He had a cup of Cookies & cream and Coffee for mom. Service was fantastic and everything was explained from the menu to the self serve machines.“

“This place is really nice, I’m so impressed! I got the cookies and cream ice cream ( it honestly tasted normal) but with 3 complimentary toppings! ! They have a bunch of menu items to choose from. The lady was very kind and it was very satisfying to watch her make the ice cream (also instagrammable) they have outdoor seatings as well. Overall this was a vibe and I’ll be back and try different flavors“

“I visited a new franchise in New Rochelle and I saw the organization and well-maintained facility in the store. With the Pink Cup I ordered, I was satisfied with the Pistachio flavored ice cream with my favorite toppings. The lovely cashiers welcomed me to the store and made me feel valued in the place. The Pistachio was delicious, and the bubble toppings with the strawberry slices were both nutritious and delicious. With a few people lounging in the peaceful environment, I enjoyed my stay, catching up with my organization discussing our logo to be used in New York City.“

“This is such a great place! I was looking for a new tacos place and found this spot a few days ago. Their salsa, guacamole and tacos are extremely flavorful and delicious! The customer service is wonderful too! I'm so glad I stopped here. This is my new favorite taco spot!“

“Fell in love with their setup. Old school carvel vibes. Ice cream tasted like my childhood. Very clean. The employees were very friendly and had no problem letting my young son use their personal restroom. We'll definitely visit again soon.“
