7 Best Ice Cream Shops near Stone Ridge

“I was out today riding my motorcycle over the mountain and stopped in for a twist cone. Your chocolate and vanilla ice cream is so rich in flavor. I remember if correctly it was called Juergen's Place back in the 1960's.“

“What a special experience! The owner went above and beyond to make my birthday feel so memorable. She was incredibly warm and welcoming, and the sweetest touch was when she came out with a cookie and candle and personally sang “Happy Birthday” to me. 🥹❤ It was such a thoughtful gesture and truly made me feel so special. You can tell she genuinely cares about her guests and creating a wonderful experience. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Such an amazing afternoon at Minards with friends! We came with our 7 (combined) kids - who are 3-14 years old- And seriously, every single one of the kids had a blast, as did the parents! It’s a great set up for your kids to play while the grownups hang out nearby hand can enjoy a beverage or two. Angie and Jason were WONDERFUL hosts - which is kind of wild because my assumption is that the owners would generally oversee from some sort of ivory tower, but nope! They are right there “in it” with all the customers visiting for the day. I won’t lie- I love it and they are awesome people. My 7 year old is currently directing me to give them a 10 star review and is NOT happy that 5 is the max amount allowed. The parking lot was full of lots of jersey and Pennsylvania plates and that’s awesome- but more locals need to come spend a day here because it was an awesome experience for all! Also worth noting- I know places like this can be incredibly overwhelming for kids who may be neurodiverse and not thrilled with sensory overload. If you do come and try a day hanging out here- look for Angie (Incredibly friendly, very pretty blonde - can’t miss her!) and introduce her to your little one. Her whole background is in taking care of kiddos just like yours and she’s like a sorcerer with making them feel comfortable and not overwhelmed!

“Great place with a huge variety of ice cream flavors and ice cream treats. The waffle cone shell was very good and made fresh. The staff were helpful since there are so many options for toppings. I had the waffle taco which was great. It's a waffle cone shaped into a taco shell and stuffed with ice-cream. Decent parking and seating outside. Will have to come back to try the other treats they offer.“

“I really enjoy the bubble tea here! The ice cream is good too, but I go for the bubble tea. There are plenty of options.This place just opened up so it is still being decorated, but give it a shot as the family that runs it is very kind and helpful.“

“Great pastries made by a culinary grad. Diane is a saint!“

“They always have new and interesting flavors. I took my son. I have accepted that I can't have anything with dairy and these are rare treats for him. They had a few non-dairy sorbet options. I think I got pineapple, added some shredded coconut, and it was absolutely DELISH!“
