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!“

“The staff here are very knowledgeable, helpful and provided fast DMV service. This place is pretty sweet, considering your literally surrounded by delicious assortments of chocolates and candies. Free samples at the door was a nice surprise, Thank you!“

“Place was spotless, vibe and setting perfect for ice cream and owner and help were great as well as the ice cream cups donur ice cream and all the trimmings to choose.“

“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!“

“I recently bought the Earl Grey Tea and Berry Cornbread at my local Kroger store and was blown away! The richness and the flavor profiles were out of this world, especially the latter flavor of the two. It’s dangerous to know the Kroger store is only five minutes from my house. I’ll definitely be trying other flavors.“

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

“Brought my kids here this week and we all had a great experience. The ice cream was amazing, the place was clean and had a great vibe, and the staff really stood out super friendly, patient, and very knowledgeable about the menu. I’ve visited other Robin’s locations before and they’ve always been consistently great. You can tell they care about both their product and customer service. My kids are already asking to go back, so we’ll definitely be making this a weekly stop.“

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

“Great ices! Mango is my favorite❣️“

“Had a great experience at the Lynbrook TCBY store! Brad, the friendly staff member behind the counter, went above and beyond to make our visit special. He kindly offered us samples of any flavor we wanted, which helped us decide on the perfect frozen yogurts. His warm smile and excellent customer service made my lunch break even sweeter. I met up with my wife and daughter there, and Brad made sure we felt welcome and taken care of. If you're lucky enough to catch him on Tuesdays or Thursdays (his days in the store), make sure to say hi - you won't be disappointed!“

“Great local frozen yogurt spot. We appreciate that there are always sugar-free flavors available. And usually a dairy free option. Most yogurt places around us only offer no sugar added, and are limited to one flavor if available. There also are sugar-free and gluten-free muffins. The scones are amazing. And there’s a bunch of frozen bagel options, cookies and brownies available. Plenty of toppings, for sugar-free they have chocolate chip chips and hot fudge. There’s also indoor and outdoor seating. Staff is friendly, fast and helpful.“

“Amazing gelato. Highly recommend 🍨 😍🍧 😍“

“I always love coming here and would get my ice cream. They’ve even accommodated me when I got there super close to closing time. Saw that they make cakes and was so happy I decided to get my birthday cake from them this year! It was delicious. My whole family loved it. Some went for seconds. Couldn’t recommend them again. Next birthday cake will be from them! lol. I had the Oreo & strawberry cheesecake with Oreo crunch in between.“

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

“The Bellmore Carvel is very special. The amount of love and care put into my son's birthday cake exceeded my expectations. Amanda is so talented and you can tell she is passionate about designing cakes. She even called me personally to ask if she could alter the cake a bit from the image I provided. It came out a million times better than the image! Thank you, I will only be ordering from you guys in the future!“

“- "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 want to say a huge thank you to Sam at Cinnabon Carvel for the beautiful cake for my grandma! She absolutely loved it. The cake was perfect, and the service was just as amazing. Sam was so friendly and kind, which made the whole experience even better. I’ve already recommended this location to others and will definitely be back. Thank you again!“

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

“solid fro-yo place! their toppings are fresh - all the cookies, cones, and cereals are crunchy. they have other dessert options as well. they run out of flavors sometimes - ask for samples!

parking is a nightmare though, you’re better off parking around the block or two blocks down at the fresh meadows complex“

“love this place makes what ever you want“

“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“

“Workers are kind of awkward cuz they're all teens except for the manager, which is okay.
The ice cream is amazing though. And they piled that stuff on. I couldn't finish it and it took me half an hour to even get halfway through it.
I ordered a small vanilla cup with no toppings.
It's far cheaper than Cold Stone Creamery and almost has the same aspects.
If you loved Mr. Softee's ice cream growing up, those ice cream trucks always going around the block, than this ice cream is for you.“

“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 :)“

“THE BEST Cold Stone anywhere! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟“

“Amazing ice cream and amazing workers and owners!!! Definitely stop in and try“

“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 💯!!!!“

“Favorite place to visit for a ice cold treat :) Quick service, always got my fav flavor in stock.“

“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“

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

“Hands down one of the best dessert spots around! I stopped by this Ralph’s Italian Ices and tried the Dubai Chocolate Sundae—and WOW, it was next level. Rich, creamy, and packed with flavor, every bite felt like a chocolate lover’s dream come true. The layers were perfectly balanced, and the presentation? Instagram-worthy. You can tell they put real thought into their flavors and quality. Definitely coming back to try more! If you haven’t been here yet, you’re seriously missing out.“

“This cold stone creamery located in popular street in Jamaica Ave opposite to primark , The ice cream 🍦 is tasty delicious , the people working here are very good professionals and customer friendly, they welcomes talk with customers nicely, highly recommended.“

“Love the new flavor, Nutella!“

“Ice Cream n Tings has very friendly staff and excellent customer service. The shop is cute, clean, and the prices are great. The ice cream is delicious! They aren’t normally open on Mondays, but still served us anyway, which was really appreciated. I love supporting a Black Jamaican-owned business and will definitely be returning.“

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

“This place is great! We were immediately greeted and encouraged to sample as many flavors as we wanted.

The shop is family forward, laid back, and approachable but the product screams quality! The taste, texture and mouth feel of the ice cream felt premium throughout the 4 flavors we got.

What I love about this place is the creativity. The flavors are all different than the usual stuff, while feeling like your classic go-to. We got toasted marshmallow ice cream with oreos and graham crackers, blackberry with dark chocolate chips, bananas foster, and salted caramel brownie.

The establishment was clean and well kept. The staff was very friendly. A young man named Chino helped us out and answered all of our questions in a professional and friendly way. When we asked for recommendations, he gave real answers and pointed out his favorites. I also feel like the price was great. For the quantity and quality of what you get, its way worth it.

I have been waiting for another great ice cream spot to take the place of Five Pennies and I think this is it. It beats the pants off of anything else in the RVC, Lynbrook, Oceanside, East Rockaway area.“

“Childhood memory unlocked! Nothing better than having a Carvel ice cream cake for your 🎂 My friend and I couldn't just walk by, it was a MUST that we went in...Lol
Friendly service, clean, and still good quality ice cream 🍦 Not a lot of places sell grapenut ice cream, so I was happy I got to enjoy a cup 😊
I can't wait to come back on my next trip!!“

“I ordered a cappuccino at the Gran Café Gelateria and it was really really good. I paid $5 for a large . I did notice they also had Ferrero Rocher ice cream, which I asked the young ladies to try and it was absolutely amazing. I will definitely be returning to Lynbrook just to try for ice cream here! The service was also very friendly!“

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

“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!“

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

“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!!! 🍦“

“Best purchase i’ve ever made. I always come to this ralph because staff is friendly,recently saw the famous dubai chocolate ice cream was released and i am OBSESSED. The two girls in the picture had the upmost respect and positivity that just radiated! I asked for their names and they both said their names were emily it was so funny. I definitely will continue to come to this ralph!“

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

“Great service and allergen friendly! My daughter has a few different food allergies which makes eating from ice cream shops very nerve wracking. Sam’s Scoops was very accommodating and knowledgeable about food allergies. Would definitely come back!“

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

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

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

“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 !“

“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!“
