Ice Cream Shops near Hempstead

“My experience at Carvel's was a positive one .The young lady that served me was professional and pleasant. The ice cream was fresh and tasty as ALWAYS! However, I was disappointed that the Egg nog flavored ice cream wont be out until next month.“

“These are all my cookies i have ever gotten from crumbl. They were all delicious. Cannot eat a whole cookie in one sitting tbh but that is not a bad thing at all! That means I can savor the cookie over a period of time woo! My favs from the times I've got crumbl were blueberry cheesecake, snickerdoodle cupcake, cannoli and cinnamon square! Many awesome and yummy flavors. The store is very clean and smells of fresh cookies. Yummmm“

“This place is a hidden gem and features some of the best ice cream/ gelato I've ever had on Long Island. I got the campfire crunch swirly, and it was delicious. Ice cream was super cremy and fresh, and they put the perfect amount of blended toppings in the swirly.The shop featured about 20 gelato flavors to choose from and also had a nice expresso bar/candy station in the back.The service was nice and friendly.Overall, this place is a must try!“

“This place is a little diamond. Went for the first time last night and WOW. It took me back to Italy. They don't use the artificial flavors you'll find at all the local icecream shops. It's REALLY pistachio and hazelnut and chocolate. The flavors were absolutely incredible and smooth. Not too sweet. Just perfect across the board. No little bits of ice like you get at other spots where the ice cream has been sitting. It was all fresh. And the owner was a lovely Italian woman who was so happy to share her treats with us. They were very kind and patient as we struggled to pick a flavor (because they all were AMAZING). They also have an assortment of tarts and the icecream cakes that looks like the best ice cream cake you'll ever have. They are absolutely beautiful! If you love proper Italian gelato or ice cream this spot is gonna be your new favorite.“

“In doing an Aperol Spritz themed bridal shower for my daughter we rented the Aperol spritz tricycle from Dolce & Gelato. I started contacting Gino Parente the minute my daughter got engaged.? I’m an earlier planner. Gino was so responsive and so kind immediately. Nothing was a problem for him. He is unbelievable with communicating, I called him at least 15 times. ?. He takes the time out to speak to you as if you are his only customer. A truly professional man to work with . On the day of the shower the tricycle was decorated beautifully with fake flowers and the bar attendant Katherine was fantastic! My daughter and our guests had an absolute blast getting drinks from the cart and taking photos. So much fun! I’ll definitely be using Gino’s company Dolce & Gelato again! A truly wonderful experience working with him!“

“I'm so surprised I hadn't written a review for Marvel before, especially since I have been here a couple times because it's pretty close to my sister's house. It's definitely great value compared to a lot of other ice cream shops. Since the last time I was there they've added more flavor options too. When I went recently, I ordered a small cup of half pistachio/half dulce de leche with the Marvel mix on top (rainbow sprinkles/chocolate crunchies). It hit the spot, although it did not seem as creamy as it was the last time I had it. Service was ok, not the friendliest though. If I'm around the area, I may pop back.“

“Gelato is tasty and superb . ButThe ladies behind the counter had a noticeably annoying attitude . Maybe ill give them the benefit if the doubt that it was near closing time and there was still a handful of customersJust wanted to point that out because I know businesses always strive for improvement“

“First time here wanted to know what the hype was about, got a 4 pack.2 chocolate chip... good though chips didn't taste like semi sweet, they were sweet.1 donut.... good...tasted just like a melted donut1 brownie, good.They are good cookies, limited on base choice as the others selections are toppings on the base.Crunchy on the edges, top, bottom and moist in the center. Very addictive.They hold up well in the freezer and can be eaten straight from the freezer as it doesn't turn into a brick.It's a 5 dollar cookie which is too expensive to enjoy frequently.Parking: Its located in a strip mall“

“Since ice cream is my favorite food group, I had to check out Dolce back when they opened. It has become a staple in our household. My fiancé and I sneak out without the kids knowing so we can grab a cup of gelato as a weekly ritual. We take the kids sometimes too lol. Danny and his staff are always friendly and accommodating and the gelato is always fresh and delicious.“

“Get the 4 scoop sundae, good for 3 ppl R $11. That's a solid steal! Replace pineapple with berries and have a mix of nuts rather than one.Downside is the hot fudge melted the ice cream so it was like eating soup.Keep the ice cream solid and visible rather than underneath the whip cream.Cool old blast to the past parlour look. Good chill time.“

“Beautiful interior and decor! Really enjoy the ambitious here, it's a comfy spot for families and friends to sit and enjoy. Had the Chicken Tikka as "appetizers" and the Steaks as the "main course". Everything was rich and juicy! The Tomahawk as beautifully cooked (medium is theee way to go) and the side Mac n cheese was amazing!“

“Rolled ice cream is always a fun treat! They had lots of flavor options and I chose piña colada. All were $8 and came with unlimited toppings! I didn't realize at first the toppings were unlimited or I would have gotten more! I saw that they even toast marshmallows with a torch for you upon request as a topping. Ice cream was delicious and the staff friendly. They had a few tables inside and a bench outside to enjoy your ice cream. Parking could be a little tricky, as it was street parking only but we were able to easily find a spot around the corner.“

“I stopped by go nuts for sweets because I needed a quick gift for a last minute bday party. The lady was super sweet. She had me pick out the items I wanted and she put it all together for me and made me this basket looking so cute for the birthday girl. As I waited, I also ordered a tiramisu bubble tea. I was hesitant at first because I didn’t know how that would taste but I’m so glad I did!! The drink was super delicious girl let me tell you! I will definitely be back, and I promise if you go you’ll love it too(the kids will love u for bringing them) ? thank you for the lady who took care of me!“

“Delicious treats for the discerning palate!! The flavors are subtle but powerful. The owner and staff are delightful. Great way to end a date or to mark the end of a crazy workweek. They're open until 10 pm, so you can satisfy that late evening impulse for something sweet.“

“The best chocolatier in the NY-metro area! Great array of unique and interesting flavors that one doesn't see anywhere else. You can tell they put their heart into their craft. I am eating art. Great for gifting, the recipients always love their treats. The staff are always very nice and helpful.“

“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 :)“

“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 etcKid-friendliness: Cereal flavors for kids to choose from“

“I recently visited Lucky Penguin for the first time and had the pleasure of trying their matcha crepe, while my friend opted for the Ferrero Rocher rolled ice cream. Let me tell you, the matcha crepe was a revelation - it's easily one of the best I've ever had. Special thanks to the young man working there who recommended it to me; he really knows his stuff! The customer service was outstanding as well; they even gave me extra sauce topping for free. Yum! Lucky Penguin is a must-visit for dessert lovers.“

“Wonderful ice cream for humans and our canine baby! We stopped for a treat earlier, tasted coconut, German chocolate and raspberry ice cream . Fantastic fresh with natural flavors. Friendly service and especially catered to our boxer Izzy.“

“What a fun and tasty summertime treat! If you "but it's just a snow cone" you are mistaken this is much softer, fluffier and definitely a Snoball! This is the kind if treat once took my first spoonful I was already plotting when I could Come to eat it again and why did I only get a regular sized when I should have gone BIGGER. There are over 100 flavors to pick from and additives and more so truly you can go wild. I really enjoyed coconuts tutti fruti, tigers blood so far. I wish I had one sooner. Lots of young people working behind the counter but they had a smile on their faces 5/5 stars!“

“This location reopened Summer of 2021 after repairs from a car that plowed into it a few years ago. Now surrounded by bollards to (hopefully) prevent another car from closing the store again. They added a few new flavors of soft-serve. Better than ever.“

“Such a cute old school candy store. Lots of types of chocolates and other favorites.It was a bit hard to find as the sign in the window is quite small and the bigger "DMV Services" sign makes you think you are in the wrong place.“

“Such a cute little spot. If you happen to be in Long Beach, this is another place that you must pop your head in and try if you have never had alcohol infused ice cream. I normally frequent the Manhattan location and have also use their delivery service from time to time. Today was my first time at this particular location being that I was out in Long Beach I ended up buying a pint of the rosé infused sorbet.Normally I get the raspberry lemoncello or the mango margarita flavor. My all time favorite is the watermelon Hennessy infused sorbet (limited edition)I haven’t tried the rosé yet but they had a blood orange infused flavor that I did sample today that was pretty good and the manager even mentioned that it pairs well with Prosecco.Definitely will visit again while summers is still here“

“best ices in town!milk shakes to die for!favorite is crazy coconut with nuts (dont be fresh- peanuts bruh)and chocolate chips , whipped cream and made into a shake.WOW!!!friendly staff. all young people and very respectful.Parking: small lot but enough of street parkingKid-friendliness: super nice to kids“

“This spot is truly a hidden gem in the Westbury area. The essence of Nana's is that of an ice cream parlor and coffee shop with baked goods. However they also serve beer and cocktails alongside some quick eats such as burgers, and special menu items such as gumbo or shrimp & grits. On Wednesday evenings they have a fun Trivia Night which is free to join. Nana's is a slice of New Orleans hospitality in the middle of Nassau County.“

“Best cupcakes I've ever had. The pink vanilla are classic vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream and are my favorite. They are very soft and moist. They stay fresh for a few days after I buy them. Friendly staff and clean store. They make very cute cupcakes for all holidays. Highly recommend.“

“Charming neighborhood with the friendliest locals I’ve ever encountered in NY. It’s a beautiful drive here from Queens and randomly found a place that serves Hawaiian style shaved ice. It was delicious and I ordered the tropical shaved ice. The staff were very helpful, environment is clean and plenty of parking. I’m definitely going back to try more of their flavors/toppings!“

“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!“

“Mary's Irish shop is truly a gem! From the people to the food everything is great! I've had the Irish breakfast which brought me write back to Ireland and recently had their BEC sandwiches that were absolutely delicious! Trish and her team are amazing and make you not want to leave. We can't wait to go back!! High recommend!“

“I recommend their Awesome cakes!!! Just had the pleasure of enjoying one; specially made for my Granddaughter's 14th Birthday. The owner is friends with my Son in law!! It was a Unicorn doing, 'The Dab!! The Frosting had88 Rainbow colors; on the Trim!!! the filling was Vanilla Ice Cream; Crispy Dark Chocolate with bottom Chocolate Ice Cream !! He did an Amazing job!! I enjoyed Emery bit!!!“

“Stopped by the other day with the family for a evening treat. Super friendly staff and the place is very clean!!! I also like the fact that they have tables inside and outside to sit and have your ice there. Instead of leaving with your ice and it melts away while you drive home. LOL I recommend this location !!!“

“The owner & his staff , especially Brianna , go above & beyond ! I’m always last minute & Brianna has accommodate my special orders with a smile 2 x’s in the last 10 days !!Thank you for making my granddaughter happy with her Bluey cakes !“

“so so yummy. do not sleep on their cookies, i waited less than 15 minutes to get fresh baked ones and they were so so good. the staff was really sweet and friendly and their ice cream was really yummy too! we were taking a while to figure out what we wanted to order and they were very helpful and patient with us. we also had a coffee milkshake that was also good. no complaints about anything that we got, overall was a nice time with good snacks. dont forget about their cookies!“

“I came upon this shop while looking for a quick bite to eat. Service was fast and very friendly. They have tons of options and everything is good quality. The shop was also very clean. There are chairs outside to enjoy your frozen treats. Overall I definitely recommend stopping here for dessert after dining at one of the many restaurants near by.“

“I got an ice cream cake here for my daughter's 5th birthday and they did a superb job! The cake had a beautiful Cinderella graphic to match our party theme. It completely exceeded all my expectations. Would come here again and again for cakes!“

“Carvel ice cream cakes bring out the childhood nostalgia in me!I did not spend much time in store but the older gentleman who attended to me was super helpful. He made suggestions for best results before serving and offered to decorate the cake further for us.The cake was as I remembered and I was transported back to my childhood and savoured each mouthful.Carvel has my heart!“

“What a beautiful place! Delicious food, great variety and famtadrict service! Our waitress was kind and attentive.It was me, my husband and 3 kids. The food came out fast (if you have kids to know how important that is). As soon as we sat down she gave us coffee. We were well taken care of here, I can't wait to come back and try lunch.“

“Best Italian ice spot in elmont/ franklin square. Prices are good, and they have many flavors. They also serve regular ice cream and milk shakes.Kid-friendliness: Plenty of flavors to choose from and they offer free samples, so you and your kids can try different flavors until you find one you like. They also have a small cup size for kids that's an appropriate portion for them.“

“The workers are very nice as well as the soft served creamy Ice cream. The service is amazing however, sometimes the company runs slow when like they were lowdown on workers, during my experience had to wait 30 minutes for someone. The atmosphere is ok it could use some work to really represent what carvel looked like back then in the 90s/late 2000's overall 15/10Vegetarian options: none :) i hate em vegansDietary restrictions: Ask for low fat ice creamKid-friendliness: Very much kid frinedlinessWheelchair accessibility: Accessibility is easy just as k for a accessibility bathroom“

“Carvel is literally a taste of my childhood.Whenever a birthday or another event arose that "required" a cake, we always got a carvel cake with the famous crunchies. Well to this day, my childhood carvel still exists in the same locale and i enjoy their cakes and other icey treats just as much. And Wednesdays are especially the day to go if you get the urge, because they are 2 for 1 on sundaes.. CANT BEAT THAT!“

“What a cute little shop located in this cute historic area in Roslyn, NY! YOLO Yogurt & Desserts offering just about everything you could imagine and every topping. They have Frozen Yogurt, Crepes, Gelato, Acai Bowls, a variety of beverages and so much more. I ordered a Nutella Crepe with strawberries and grabbed some mineral water. The crepe was amazing and the service was delightful.“

“I've been coming here for more than I want to admit and makes me feel old. I'm going to keep this very honest in respect to using common sense/speculation/as well as responding to some of the comments on here. We haven't been there in quite some time...surprised to see the place redecorated. My wife loved it...I understand it. I'm one of those people that walk into a pizzeria and see faded red Formica tables, benches and dated dingy decor as a good thing. I was never bothered by aesthetics as it seems seasoned and perfected like the food im about to indulge in. The old international cafe had a plethora of food, nothing that wow'd you BUT was consistently good even though they had a great variety. The freshly made waffles, variety of gelato and fresh whip cream needs no review. People who complain about noise should just stay home with their mask on. You are talking about an open place restaurant that is a staple of a community for decades. Why in 2024 are people so miserable to see others so happy. Place is jammed back...what do you expect it to sound like? People complaining about kids are the same $hit parents who rather hand their kid a iPad instead of letting them socialize. When we go there we expect it to be busy, loud, kids be kids, great food, great service and pay cash. With new owner ship comes many things and one them was the menu. We were thrown off since we were expecting our usual order. A lot of their items on the menu can be easily replicated at home. When we go out to eat we only order what we don't make for the most part. My wife ordered their Chicken Tenders which was made fresh as they were chicken cutlets cut down. I thought it was OK my wife was not happy bc the crispy bread outside came off the chicken itself. We also got wings and beer battered onion rings. Onion rings were great and wings are wings. We don't deep fry in the house for many reasons...we never ordered anything deep fried at the old spot either. Got their loaded potato skins which my wife enjoyed as well. Reviews about the new whip cream being OFF in taste is correct. Gelato tasted the same to us which was good. Price seemed fair for what we got compared to others places we have gone too. Best of luck to the new owners and staff. I honestly don't think we will be back bc happy wife happy life Our waitress was PHENOMENAL“

“I have never been to Chip City before but I heard some ladies talking about it at work. So of course I HAD to go! I went in on the night before Christmas Eve to the store in Merrick and the sales associate was so sweet, helpful and easy to talk to. There weren’t many flavors to choose from as I went late in the evening. Everyone at dinner on Christmas Eve said these cookies were better than Crumble!“

“The only place in the area to go when you're craving Italian Gelato! Their gelato more closely resembles gelato I've had in Italy, compared to other places who do not specialize in this.The staff and owners are helpful. Even though there are a million signs saying "only two samples per person", they were kind enough to give us more samples for our kids when it wasn't busy. The area is not the best for me, but if it's convenient for you, I'd definitely check them out!“

“We were strolling along the boardwalk and saw this gem! The food was unbelievable! I loved being able to order lunch for breakfast, food is fresh- staff is so kind. We will definitely be back! We ordered the big Kahuna burger and old bay fries. Definitely not a 4.3* place. Try 5***. Beautiful views!“

“First off, let's talk flavors! Marhsalls offers an impressive array of mouthwatering flavors.From classic favorites like chocolate and vanilla to unique creations like pistachio, there's something for everyone here. And let me tell you, each scoop is packed with flavor and made with high-quality ingredients.And let's not forget about the homemade Ice crasm cakes!! they're an absolute game-changer for any celebration!!“

“Marvel's ice cream is soft and delicious! I've been to both locations and wasn't disappointed. Over the summer I really enjoyed their pistachio and strawberry swirl at their beachfront outpost. The staff is nice enough. There no real "ambience" since they're an outdoor establishment- order your ice cream and go. You won't be disappointed!“

“The best fro yo on the island! Don't forget to stop by on a Tuesday or Saturday for BOGO! Bonus is that it's right across the street from the train station. Perfect for grabbing a sweet treat before taking the train back to penn station.“
