50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Island Park

“The best Ralph's on Long Island and the most incredible operators! Thank you for all the years of joy!“

“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.“

“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 💣“

“Amazing gelato. Highly recommend 🍨 😍🍧 😍“

“This review is for the store on Bedford Ave in Bellmore. This place is awesome. The owner is super nice. The place is super clean. He has a lot of flavors that are soft. I am a flying saucer girl and they have a nice choice for you to pick or if you want something special they make it in advance and all you have to do is call them. This store is my number 1. Job well done!“

“- "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.“

“Delicious & Excellent food allergy information! Highly recommend.“

“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!“

“This TCBY location is the best on the planet! Their cakes are the absolute freshest, most delicious creations and the owners and staff are the friendliest. Don't let the season pass without cold treats from this impeccably clean and beautifully run location. Highly recommended! Brad is a rock star!“

“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.“

“This location is very nice always clean,they are very friendly and pleasant here and always have all the flavors.
I was served by several times by Samantha who had always been helpful in selecting flavors, pleasant and takes great pride in serving the customers.
Best ice cream in Queens“

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

“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 :)“

“Was very good. My grandson enjoyed his sundee. Nice and clean and very friendly“

“These cookies are delicious! We sampled them as a family this month and the Apple snickerdoodle was everyone's favorite! followed closely by the cookies and cream. soft, decadent and flavourful, Nicole really knows her stuff. Can't wait to order again next month!“

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

“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!“

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

“Great ice cream along with that old fashioned feel.“

“I visited Gran Caffe Gelateria with a few friends for a late-night dessert after dinner, and we were also looking for a good coffee spot. This place had great reviews, so we decided to check it out, especially since it stays open late.

The gelato selection was impressive, offering a variety of flavors at a great price point—definitely good value for the quality. The gelato itself was super creamy and delicious, better than many places I’ve tried before. I also appreciated that the portion sizes were generous.

As for the customer service, while the staff was polite, I felt the engagement could have been better. When asking about flavors and pricing, it was a bit of a one-sided conversation. Since it wasn’t too busy at the time, I would have preferred a little more interaction to make the experience feel more welcoming.

The coffee and espresso were also fantastic, with a surprisingly good value for the price. My friends and I were impressed with the flavor and quality.

One thing to keep in mind is parking—since it’s a corner shop, parking was limited, and we had to park about half a block away. If you're planning a visit, just be prepared for that.

Overall, this is a great spot for late-night gelato or coffee. The selection is not overwhelming, but what they do have is top-notch. Whether you're going solo, with friends, or even with kids, this is a solid choice for a sweet treat. I'll definitely consider coming back!“

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

“Oh my god, I love coming here. They have the best frozen yogurt here with amazing toppings. The place is ALWAYS clean and it’s definitely worth the price. The best flavor in my opinion was the pomegranate raspberries. The workers are always polite and clean up the place. They have cute thermal spoons too definitely 10/10“

“It's probably one of the best ices i've ever had in my life!.However the SERVICE SUCKS!!!!!!!!!
I believe the system on how they take orders for customers is designed to create a line so other potential customers will see & think what's going on over there. I believe it's a strategic advertising moving that comes at the expense of good people who just want to get the ices or ice cream & go home back to their respective lives. I truly hope that they read this post & think we have an excellent product that sells itself. we do not need to take this approach to get other potential customers to come to our establishment. Once you finally make it to front & and purchase, the servers are nice & pleasant & more importantly respectful. I asked one of them why the line like this & she simply replied this is the way they want it.“

“Marvel Frozen Dairy on the Long Beach Boardwalk is a must-visit! The ice cream was absolutely delicious—rich, creamy, and full of flavor. You can really taste the quality in every bite. The service was quick, efficient, and super friendly. The entire place was clean and well-kept, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Everyone working there was kind and welcoming, creating a great atmosphere for families and beachgoers. Whether you're strolling the boardwalk or just looking for a sweet treat, this spot is a perfect stop. We’ll definitely be coming back all summer long. Highly 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 etc

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

“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 !“

“Absolutely check this place out for dinner. I usually will take out and decided to eat in.. The room was so nice and Sara our server was awesome. This is not just a pizza place.. ENJOY“

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

“Unique ice cream and delightful employees! Why can’t I see where to put 5 stars here? 💜💜💜💜💜“

“It's so beneficial that this location is now always open until 1am. They are always kind to me when I visit this establishment. The vibes are always on point, just like the music;). The ice cream is always stacked high and even if the ice cream is low they will get it from the back with no issues. I highly recommend this ice cream spot to all looking for a late night snack, or just a snack whenever!“

“Just as I remembered! Georgia doesn't have... :-(“

“Came here for Mother’s Day and the food was delicious. The service was way too slow though. They were packed but really understaffed. A nice server came and introduced herself and I sat with coffee for a good 45 mins until someone brought our food over. Several other tables were waiting for the same time as well, maybe more. The server however was very nice. Everything is cooked fresh here and I enjoyed tasting everything because I was full by the time I took the first few bites. I recommend hiring more staff especially on busy holidays.“

“Best breakfast I’ve had in a very long time. The place is a delight. Glad I found it and will return often.. Thank you, Trish. if you’re in Long Beach, don’t miss out on stopping in for breakfast or lunch. You will not be sorry.“

“We came just as they were locking up for the night. The owner saw us walking away and called us back to the store, staying later just to assist us. He was super nice and let us try as many flavors as we wanted before making us a sundae and a water ice. Everything tasted so good! 10/10 experience and will be back soon!“

“Highly recommend!!! Amazing flavors and so many it’s hard to decide. Owner is so friendly and let my kids try many flavors. Reasonably priced too. We will definitely be back!!! 🍦“

“I was craving ice cream in the area, found this cute lil spot. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted, I don’t recall seeing a clear price lisg but when I asked about the prices, the cashier answered. $8 for two scoops on a cone. I won’t complain about that. I enjoyed the ice cream and it was a nice treat to the day.

If youre in the area, I would recommend a visit and I wouldn’t mind returning again.“

“Fun friendly staff! They have great treats, including ones from my childhood!“

“Love the new flavor, Nutella!“

“healthy, excellent choice, for all means, including lunch or dinner. highly recommend.“

“Love this place. Wish they had more of them in the city limits. Visited this location, south street seaport and the location in coney island. The staff is always super friendly, the custard and flavored ices are always so fresh. I got the vanilla custard with the cherry ice! (Which has real bits of cherry in it!). They have a parking lot which is super Convienent. Check out the pictures!“

“Very nice ppl working here not crowded and the ice cream is the best !! The cakes too �“

“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”“
