50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Franklin Square

“There is not much that differentiates one carvel from another product-wise. However, the awesome customer service and friendly staff is what makes this one shine. We have a peanut allergy in the family and have never had an issue either.They also do a phenomenal job decorating cakes. 10/10 would recommend :)“

“Amazing gelato. Highly recommend 🍨 😍🍧 😍“

“Love this place. David is the best and his cakes are always great. I can go to a Baskin Robbins closer to my house but we love this place so much, it's worth the extra time it takes to get there. Btw, thanks David for Jackson's birthday cake. He LOVED it. =D“

“I had an absolutely delightful experience at Red Mango 🥭 in Franklin Square today! The SPK drink I ordered was crafted to perfection by Nicola, and I must say, it was a burst of deliciousness in every sip. But the treats weren't the only highlight – engaging in conversation with Jade was an absolute pleasure. I can't help but commend the exceptional service provided by these two young women. Their warm hospitality and pleasant demeanor truly stood out. It's rare to come across staff members who are both attentive and genuinely hospitable. Nicola and Jade are definitely a testament to the fantastic customer service at Red Mango. Looking forward to many more visits to enjoy not just the treats, but the wonderful atmosphere they create. Kudos to the team! 🍹🌟 #RedMangoDelights #TopNotchService #TreatYourselfRight #franklinsquare 🤩 🏠 ❤️ “#williamjacobs #williamjacobsrealtor #williamjacobsrealestae”“

“This is the cutest ice scream spot in this neighborhood. The owner is also super friendly and welcoming. We tried the waffle and crepes, which were freshly made upon ordering, and they were so delicious. Highly recommend coming here for a sweet treat.“

“Yummy ice cream, the pistachio, chocolate, vanilla, coffee and dolce de leche was 💣“

“delicious...variety...love this place“

“Guys, I have to share my experience at Let's Roll because it was wonderful. I don't really like ice cream (i know, that's crazy right?), but my husband and my kids always go to this place so I decided to try it. It's a super friendly place that's owned by a wonderful couple (Craig & Giselle, I think? I don't really know if that's how she spells it), but I never wanted to try the ice cream. Except today. I tried the passion fruit flavor - and my God, there's nothing like it! You really have to taste it - it's so yummy. And besides, the place is super family-friendly, with super nice people, such positive energy. I will be back soon. 5 stars for Let's Roll in Merrick!“

“Great ice cream and dessert experience. Staff is professional and helpful.“

“Clean location, simple to read menu, and amazing service“

“Atmosphere and vibes! The novelty of cereal ice cream really depends on how it’s executed, and this spot does it well! Location makes it a perfect date night dessert place to complement your evening on Bell Blvd. In short, you are paying for an experience when coming here. The ice cream is more like a soft serve when mixed with the cereal and carries a price tag of 8 bucks a head. BUT, I will say I left SATISFIED. There’s a plentiful variety of mixing and matching you can do with your order and the staff were friendly. The portion is adequate, and as you can see in the photo, it’s always better with company!“

“Wonderful time such a calm relaxing area,“

“Amazing! This place had everything we wanted! My boyfriend and I were looking for a sweet treat to enjoy on our Fourth of July outing, and this was the only place available. We called ahead to check if they were open, and the staff answered immediately and were incredibly helpful. When we arrived, we were greeted warmly and offered samples when we were unsure of what to choose. The prices were also very affordable. It turned out amazing! Highly recommend this spot!“

“- "What a hidden gem! Michuacana exceeded my expectations with its rich flavors, generous portions, and warm service. I'll be back soon!

Kid-friendliness: Highly recommended for kids - "I've never seen such a diverse range of ice cream flavors! Michuacana's got it all, from fruity to nutty to decadent chocolate. The quality is top-notch, and I can't wait to try more!"“

“I walked in to this beautiful establishment and I could not figure what out what I wanted. This establishment offers so many different types of choices it’s hard to keep up with all of them. I asked one of the employees what her favorite yogurt flavor was. When asked she said that she likes all of them and would love to help me to a sample. People like this with such kind attitudes make everyday life not as bad. Before leaving I made sure to leave a generous gift in the tip jar. Thank you Katilyn S have a great day.“

“Great ices! Mango is my favorite❣️“

“I have been looking for a Soft Serve Ice Cream spot near me for years, finally one has opened, Thank God! They were very nice and accomadating. They give huge portions which is awesome. The place was clean and organized. Everyone was polite and did not skimp on the brownies on my Sundae, again they have awesome portions. This will be my go to soft serve ice cream.“

“Omg!!! Avian paletas d nance,aguacate,elote etc,, infinidades de sabores y lo deliciosas q están muy pero muy recomendable y las muchachas q trabajan ahí son muy agradables lo hacen a uno q regresen de nuevo les doy un 💯!!!!“

“Only ice place in the nearby area. The menu is extensive so probably something for everyone! The tastes aren’t artificial or overly sweet. The ice cream is nicely done when you pair it with a water ice in one of their twisters. Super accessible with parking just outside and the fact that it’s just off the turnpike. A skosh pricey for what it is but not out of line with similar other places. Staff friendly and approachable.“

“i absolutely love this place. my friends and i go whenever we have the chance to. every worker there is so welcoming and friendly. Douglas, Ashlee and the manager Mike have created such a fun environment for all the kids that go after school. highly recommend going with friends and family, they are never scared to spark up a conversation! lovely place. lovely decoration!“

“The Italian Ices are amazing, so good lots of different flavors and even sell pints, great value, wonderful people can’t wait to get them again.“

“In summer comes I wish to go there so badly“

“Gino was patient and took the time to explain to us all the different packages, in preparation for our wedding. After learning that my fiancé and I are both first responders, Gino extended his support and professionalism to us even more so! We are both looking forward to having him cater the dessert portion of our wedding, in addition to creating an unforgettable experience! Dolce and Gelato is the way to go!! Bravissimi!“

“I ordered the rolled ice cream for my daughter’s birthday and we ordered the banana pudding flavor, the candy flavor and the Oreo flavored rolled ice cream. They were all very delicious. I highly recommend. You have options of toppings like cereal or chocolate chip or whipped topping etc and also for the type of syrup that you want on top .There are lots of toppings to choose from. I can’t wait to try them all?

Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian type options from the plant based ice cream to the toppings eg, fruit loops, cookie crisps, dark chocolate chips etc

“I walked in here accidentally and saw many people going in to buy it. My son said it should be delicious and bought two two-color cones. My son said it tasted very good, very pure and very large. The boss was very nice and the price was unexpected. Cheap, my son said he would come again“

“friendly, helpful service good food good dessert, love a good Fribble“

“After ordering the stores internet went down and I didn’t have cash to pay. We tried doing an online order so I could pay for my food but that didn’t work either. I guess their internet was down. To my surprise, The worker was kind enough to give me the food without charge!! I’ve ordered food from here before, which is excellent and will continue to do so because of their generous hospitality. I will also pay it forward next time I’m at this restaurant!“

“Excellent front counter guy! Carvel has the best soft serve ice cream!“

“This is an iconic ice cream place. I would totally recommend this to anyone who is looking for a cold refreshing treat. The line seemed long at first but we didn’t have to wait long at all. We got a vanilla cone with Marvel Mix sprinkles and a Leche flavored one. A must try!“

“Awesome place and such a friendly staff. This place has been around since 1985 ❤️“

“Amazing! You can go there all summer and get something new and delicious each time. The Açaí bowls are the best I’ve had in NYC!“

“10/10. Best dessert spot in Queens hands down!!“

“I bought a birthday cake here and it was delicious. For the cheap price, it fed 6 people. Come to this place for your ice cream and ice cream cake!! I highly suggest getting a scoop of strawberry ice cream do you do. The staff are nice and friendly towards all customers.“

“This is long islands guilty pleasure. Love stoping by in a hot summer night for any flavor you are craving for“

“AMAZING!!! First time customer. The first thing that caught my eye was the decor. It reminds me of an old school ice cream parlor. The aroma of a freshly made crepe was in the air. Not knowing what to order, the owner asked what I liked and then created this beautiful crepe just for me. I can tell you this was delicious! If you’re in the area you must go and check it out. You will not be disappointed!“

“Chip city is insane !! They are such a caring company to donate to the NYC Ronald McDonald house. I was honored to have tasted a cookie (or 2) and was blown away. Absolutely amazing love for their community. Thank you Chip City !“

“Love this place excellent ice cream and macaroons“

“Visited on a Saturday at noon and got a couple slices of Mango Mousse cake to go which had real mango and were light and delicious without being too sweet. You get a cute reusable tote bag with your purchase. The place is quite spacious and very clean. There are other items on the menu without mango. Can’t understand why there were no other customers during our visit. Maybe it was the time of day or perhaps they need to market the Bayside location better. I suspect that well-known French bakery on the same block was packed at that hour.“

“The Best Ice Cream around! The store is always clean and the staff is very friendly!“
