50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Sea Cliff

“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.“

“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!“

“Cookies change every week, and they’re absolutely amazing! When I went my favorites were Chocolate Cookies & Cream, OatmealSkillet Cookie, and their limited editions Key Lime Pie! Which was an actual PIE! & the Olivia Rodrigo Guts cookie.“

“We love this establishment!!We have had various coffees, pastries & now ice cream!Cheesecake, chocolate and tiramisu ice cream was a delicious creamy treat.The pastries are so good that every bite makes you go “mmmmm!”Bayville is lucky to have you “

“Crumbl is a modern, house-made, pickup-and-delivery only, trendy cookie chain with a spot here in Long Island.There's a decent selection of cookies available, all made from scratch in the shop, which is pretty incredible. The space is mostly bakery, with very little space up front for ordering and picking up. They have a couple of self order kiosks, and a tv with the options and prices right above. There's also a little display of the cookies by the register so you can see what they'll look like. Unfortunately there's no seating available, and they'll kick you out if you try to squat on the window ledge. Otherwise the staff is friendly, double checking orders and having a good time.I went for the classic chocolate chip, which wasn't too sweet, nice and crispy on the outside, and super soft on the inside. Mine was a little underbaked in the middle, but I'm not sure if that's how they come or if mine was just underdone. I do typically like mine a little sweeter, but it was still pretty good.Overall, a solid spot that I'll definitely check out again sometime.“

“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!“

“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“

“This is one of the most aesthetic dessert places I've been to. Great for friends and family to gather, have a chat and get some yummy dessert. I visited in winter so some of the items I.e. durian was served frozen. Most of the items were pretty good, only item I would pass is the mango sticky rice because the rice wasn't sweetened and the sauce on the side did not absorb when poured over.“

“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.“

“Classic American food! Burger and fries. Sid’s is an ideal spot for a delicious burger with some Cajun-seasoned fries. Good customer service and I received my food fairly quickly.You don't need McDonald's when you have Sid’s. I do recommend trying their brownies as a finisher. I will return for more awesome food.“

“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.“

“The best cakes I've ever had in my whole life! I have never ordered a cake blind. I ordered last Tuesday for my daughter's 14th birthday. I searched online for a cake shop near her birthday party location for a convenient pick up. The cupcakes were chocolate with strawberry frosting. I ordered a small heart cake as well. The cake is so fresh and TASTY! OMG! The cake was soft and moist. But the taste! Holy cow! The perfect chocolatey flavor. Not too sweet. It was perfect. I live 45 minutes EAST and I will travel here just for their cakes! So worth it!“

“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“

“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!“

“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.“

“The famous corner hot dog stand in old town Oyster Bay! The menu says it all! So fun and simply delicious. My favorite was the nachos with root beer. Thank you Bonanza!Parking: Spots were available right in front of Bonanza Stand when we were there.“

“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!!!!“

“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.“

“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!“

“FANTASTIC PIZZA. EVEN BETTER SERVICE. I don’t normally write reviews, but these guys absolutely deserve one. I can’t believe I’ve been missing out on Pizza Piazza my whole life, I’ve lived in the area for 20+ years, and now I wish I could have those 20 years back. If only there were more spots like this around that truly cared about the quality of their food, and the experience of their customers. The gentlemen behind the counter made me feel like ive been one of their most loyal customers for years. I will be returning to try more items from their menu very soon! Or I might just get more pizza since it was that good!“

“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.“

“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 ???“

“***** (Five Star) Review - The hubby and I love the Hicksville Sweet Shop! It is such a warm and welcoming restaurant/ice cream shop – were everyone knows your name! We reserved a table for Valentines Day and had a wonderful meal consisting of crab cakes, fried shrimp, French fries, vegetables and, for dessert, fresh homemade strawberry shortcake – reservations are rarely needed! Homemade ice cream and chocolates are also delicious! I can honestly say I never had a bad meal at the Hicksville Sweet Shop! Thank you Eva, Phil, Harry, Walter, Alma, Jeannie & Clair❤️e!“

“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…“

“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“

“@ Mustak Rahim aka Ray Ali seems like you have a problem with women in authority and in general. If youre having a problem why do you keep going back and buying productsif it is so bad? You seem to have an ulterior motive. MISOGYNISTICMUCH!! Stop posting false and hateful reviews. You sound short, fat, ugly and unloved.“

“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!“

“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.“

“The food at this restaurant was delicious, especially the steak and mixed platters, but the prices were high. I recommend the owner to speed up the order taking process and decrease the prices to make it more affordable for customers. Thanks!“

“The toasted marshmallow flavor is a must. Soo creamy and excellent quality! Customer service is fine, nothing out of the ordinary. However, the ice cream is on the pricier side. Currently they serve 2 scoops for $8. If it were just a little cheaper i would for sure give five stars. Overall my fav ice cream spot!“

“This ice cream shop is one of our favorite spots in EM. My friends travel from queens to get ice cream from here. They have flavors that we love Guava, Passionfruit, Mango, Tamarind, etc. Everything that you can't find in a normal spot. If the flavors that I listed are too much, it's ok they have normal ice cream too. The service is individuals, but the staff are very attentive to your needs. So don't rush them.“

“The best selection of Italian-style ices. Not your typical supermarket or pizza place Italian ice. High quality product at fairly steep prices. Still, the best place to get ices in the area. There are better places for ices in Queens and Brooklyn, but this is the best place I’ve found on Long Island.“

“The food is absolutely delicious. A lot of innovative items on the menu. The owner and staff go above and beyond to serve their customers. They are very friendly. My twin 11 year old grandchildren’s overwhelming choice for breakfast is to go to Hildebrandt's.Kid-friendliness: The owner is very engaging with the children. They are also given a prize before they leave.My grandchildren enjoy the fact that there is “olden day“ stuff to look at. An example is an old phone booth.“

“This small cafe is a great stop for a quick bite or drink. They pay attention to detail and things are made in house. It is conveniently located next to a local Chinese supermarket and an elementary school. Fortunately, there is a parking lot that has tons of space available for free.The cafe is quite small and meant for a quick order and pick up, but there's some seating for a sit down. Indoor Sit down is only for 3-4 people. You can place your order either by walking in or calling ahead of time to pick up. I ordered lumpia and it was cooked right away just as I ordered it. It was fresh and crispy. Definitely homemade. One order comes with 5 pieces along with a sweet and sour sauce. The chicken bacon avocado wrap is filling with lots of vegetables and protein. Flavor wise, everything is quite balanced. The Hawaiian chia bowl had mangos, bananas and granola on top. It was just sweet enough and not overpowering. Decent portion. The lemonade was a bit too sweet for my liking. If you'd like flavored lemonade, expect it to be flavored syrup mixed with some lemonade. It's delicious but quite sweet. Overall, I'd recommend this place for a quick bite, but not really for a sit down spot.“

“This is undoubtedly the best ice cream place to go to. The ice cream is delicious and extremely fresh. Also, the staff is always so sweet and the owner is so nice. I’m literally obsessed with Häagen-Dazs, specifically the Great Neck location. I highly recommend going. Seriously amazing“

“This place is inside of Tsaocaa, or are they partnered with them 0-0 But the donuts were good, a bit oily but tasty. We got an egg waffle and corndog too because it was Christmas so why not. Treat yourself :) The gurlie at the counter was nice and, as the maker of the previously mentioned corndog and egg waffle, she was pretty skilled. They were made excellently and the finished products were so aethetic, insta-worthy 100%“

“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.“

“The Hyde park location was what you should expect from a Shake Shack location. The only hit was due to a lot of items being out of stock. Staff at the location were efficient and showed some pride in their efforts. While waiting for food I watched the expediter clean areas in-between orders. Trash was high at one spot so she used a gloved hand to compact it down. To my delight the associate changed gloves and washed hands before handling the next order. Thank you!“

“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.“

“I went there and there customer service was great such a cute spot even the bathroom was extremely cute definitely took some pictures the food was so good I made my own bubble waffle there prices were good and I’d definitely come back again if you are looking for a late night spot to get a treat you should definitely come here 10/10 recommend“

“Not sure why these other reviews care what the store looks Like seriously? Your not eating the store your getting ice cream to go..Sounds like a bunch of "Karen's" ( like omg) for sure don't like it there don't go!Ice cream is the best around I couldn't care if it was on a stand outside get it go home and eat it..Guys trying to make a living!“

“The store's owner Stephanie was amazing! They are located at 287 Halstead in Harrison (near the Harrison train station). I traveled much further to this location because she helped me with my daughter's engagement order. We did an ice cream customized cake with pictures and in addition ordered 48 ice cream sandwiches with different outside cookies and different soft serves.I highly recommend using this location.“

“I ordered the double Korean BBQ burger and it was the best burger I've had all year. They get the ratio of meat/cheese/toppings correct. The beef tasted so fresh .The fries were just made and so crispy. I had them with cheese sauce and it was delightful. I will be returning.“

“I don't care how old you are --you can't walk out of here eating something and not feel like a kid frozen in time. Love Carvel. Have had ice cream and variations of it in dozens of Countries --still nothing like it. So , Häagen-Dazs and Ben and Jerry's , and all of the rest of the ice cream places out there --acknowledge the best--Carvel.“

“I want to say the girl managing here is super helpful and always so positive. She happily made me 30 $5 gift cards for my son's class and the most amazing race car birthday cake. This did not used to be my "go to" Carvel even though I could walk here but it is now.“

“Discovered this place when searching for gelato in the area and could not be more impressed with the amazing selection of pastries, gelato, and even crepes. The lady behind the counter recognize us since the first time we visited. Very personal and warm atmosphere. It's our dessert spot forever now.“

“We had a cake ordered , actually two cakes for my two kids bdays on two occasions . Bakery has amazing choices of fillings and options . Both my kids had the pictures they wanted to replicate and Dylan and her team exceeded our expectations on presentation and taste price was also good ! It’s my go to place ! Highly recommend! Thanks again for making my kids birthday an amazing event! Also ordered cakes for smaller occasions ! Amazing flavours !“

“Dolce Bella was such an amazing addition to our school fundraising event! Everyone at Dolce Bella is amazing to work with. Excellent communication and service and of course the product is top notch! Best ices ever! I thought rainbow was the best, then I had lemon, even better! Thank you for helping make our event even more successful!“

“The ices are always delicious, but I’m giving these 5 stars to the girls that worked when I went today. There was a huge family ahead of me and the mom was awful, difficult, and frustrating to everyone behind us. The girls behind the counter were so kind even though the woman was insane and it shows how professional they are.“

“I've never been to Rita's however after seeing it online, I knew I wanted to try it. On a warm summer day, I went to this location & after seeing the flavors I knew I wanted to try the Swedish Fish Gelati with cotton candy custard & boy was it good! I wish I could've taken a picture, but once I started eating it, I didn't stop lol. It tasted like a Swedish Fish & that custard is certainly a star too. I could eat the custard alone lol. I will certainly be returning.“
