50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Southampton

“my favorite spot for dessert 🍨 no matter where I am. staff is always friendly.“

“My husband and I went to Meadowlark Bakery and Cafe this morning after learning that they hosted a Thanksgiving dinner for those who needed a place to go. We try to support places that support those in the community and do good. We’ve been there before for coffee and pastries, which are amazing, but we never had any other food. We have been missing out! We both got a breakfast sandwich and they were amazing! My biscuit was light and buttery, our eggs were perfectly fried, and both sandwiches had generous amounts of breakfast meat and came with tots. They had a wonderful Santa for the kids and a nice warm enclosed area for eating. Meadowlark, thank you for being a part of our community and helping those in need. It does not go unnoticed and we will absolutely be back to support you, your business, delicious food, and the good you are doing!“

“Great flavor selection, great team. Always there when I need that sugar rush. If you’re in the area (and even if you’re not) Dreams is always worth the trip“

“I absolutely love this little sweet spot in town 🍬🍦. They carry Tanner’s ice cream, and it has become my weekly treat. My go‑to flavors are mint chocolate chip and almond coconut — both are always amazing. Traci suggested I try the peach with chocolate sprinkles, and it was an unexpectedly perfect combo. She’s so friendly every time I stop in, and the whole place has such a great vibe and atmosphere ✨.

They have so much more than candy — fun treats, great ice cream, and a welcoming feel that keeps me coming back. It’s one of those places that just makes you happy to visit 💛.“

“Angel Nunez had amazing customer service. Ice cream was great recommend the peach ice cream it was bomb!!“

“Best homemade gelato money can buy from a small business!“

“The BEST flavors of ices I’ve ever tasted - new flavors every week. All family made. A MUST try! Soft serve too for those of us more traditional 🍧🍦“

“My boyfriend loves frozen treats, so I have eaten more ice cream and frozen yogurt in the past year than I had in the previous 40+ years. I've eaten those frozen treats at more places than I knew existed.

And Owowcow is far and away my favorite. The ice cream is rich and creamy. And they have some of the best, most inventive flavors. I've been obsessed with Tea & Biscuits (Earl Gray ice cream with lavender and lemon shortbread crumbled in it... a flavor they have only in April). I loved it so much, I bought 7 pints.“

“I live walking distance from a Rita's water ice but choose to drive 15-20min to Mom's because they are better in every way than Rita's! They give bigger sizes and prices are cheaper and they have so much more selection of homemade ice cream, soft serve ice cream, and water ice in so many different flavors and combinations and Sundaes and Gelatis and milkshakes! Whatever you want, they got it!!! 👍🏼🍦🍨🍧🥤“

“Stopped in during the food truck festival and was blown away by the great service and fresh treats! 5/5 definitely recommend!!“

“Honestly best place to come too. Me and my little family came in here today and it was amazing. The staff and the music and the food was amazing. My 4yeard old and us is making this the family spot now. You guys won’t be disappointed and the churro locos the best“

“Stopped by this cute little neighborhood spot tonight. We were greeted by all four workers the moment we walked in. Their chocolate chip cookie dough was delicious, the Cookie Monster ice cream was excellent and the chocolate milkshake was super rich. A+ spot, we’ll definitely be coming back.“

“Such a charming little spot—clean, quaint, and filled with gold standard ice cream options plus the coolest, unique finds. My daughter kept it simple with an ice cream sandwich, my son had fun trying the seasonal “Egg Hunt” flavor, and I went all-in on lavender blueberry (so good!). Truly one of those places where everyone finds something they love!“

“Must try the matcha+black magic combo on waffle! Matcha is my fav. So happy they have that flavor and it tastes GOOD! I used to have to go all the way to Chinatown to get that matcha ice cream. Staffs are friendly too, one of my fav places to go in the area now.“

“I’ve had the best experience ever with this place. I’m Brazilian and also from the state of pará there, the state where true açaí is produced, and King of açaí was the closest to that I’ve ever tried here in the US. Finding them in my town was the best gift I’ve could’ve gotten!! Love love love them!“

“Awesome service! Carol is such a nice person ! Kids requested a flavor she was able to find it and had it available in no time !“

“Summertime must! How to keep cool.“

“I love Nina's ice cream and waffles so I am thrilled to have something nearby! The owners are super nice and it's a much needed addition to Jamison. My only caveat is the upcharge on toppings - it gets expensive fast so we don't go too often as with little ones it's hard to tell them they can't get toppings. The inside is small so plan to do takeout or eat outside as they have a great patio space. There is a restroom but it could use a cleaning.“

“islan flavor paradise feeling“

“Please stop by this location with the newer owners! This is our go to spot for our blizzards and also for everyone’s birthday cake! They always have the cake we need at the last minute and always are willing to personalize it. The woman was so sweet last time we got a cake and she let my daughter help her with writing on the cake. They also made a donation for my daughter’s softball team fundraiser that was very generous. Definitely make this your go to Dairy Queen!“

“Great Ice Cream shop. They’re Birthday cake ice cream is legit deliciousness. Espresso xplosion and graham slaps too.“

“Crumbl Cookies in Bensalem is absolutely worth the visit! The cookies are huge, fresh, and perfectly baked slightly crispy on the outside and soft and gooey on the inside. I love that they rotate flavors every week, so there’s always something new and exciting to try. Every cookie looked amazing and tasted even better.

The store was clean, smelled incredible as soon as we walked in, and the staff was friendly and efficient even when it was busy. Perfect spot for a sweet treat, dessert night, or bringing a box home to share with family and friends. Definitely one of the best cookie experiences around!“

“I love bringing my grandchildren here!“

“I have only compliments for the cookies at Crumbl. The large size, the fabulous and always changing selection of cookies - each more delicious than the last. A 4-pack will provide a very satisfying dessert for 4 (or more) people. The staff at Newtown is very friendly and personable; the store is immaculate, the service is quick. Stop in once and I am sure you will return.“

“The employees here are so sweet and helpful. Delicious ice cream cakes can’t wait to get another one soon. Currently dreaming about it!!!“

“We come here very often And the young girls that work here are always super friendly and nice. Whoever does the hiring did a wonderful job I have two readers that are closer to my home, but I choose to drive the extra 10 minutes just to go to the Rita’s in Furlong! For some reason, the flavors are just so much better here also!“

“Great place to go and an awesome owner“

“Rita's water ice I like what they have I tried the coffee one it was really good“

“the homemade ice cream is amazing!!“

“The best crepes in the Philadelphia area, as far as I can tell. Great coffee and ice cream, too. Tucked away in Elkins Park, but very much worth discovering.“

“Such fun and unique ice cream shop!“

“Summertime must! How to keep cool.“

“Not only did the owner of this store go out of his way to get me a cake made when I screwed up and ordered too late but all of our guests said it was the best ice cream cake they ever had. I have locations closer to me but this is the one we will be going to from now on and I am telling all of my friends and family the same.“

“I was impressed with Annie's the first time we tried it after moving to Doylestown. It's not fair off the Main Street in Doylestown and makes it easy if you want to walk down to the shop or drive in with plenty of parking. There is a nice deck area with plenty of seating to sit down and enjoy your water ice and ice cream. The staff is always friendly and has quick service. It is a local favorite of my family and want them to always be around!“

“I have always loved this place but my most recent experience yesterday makes me love it even more. I took my granddaughters out for ice cream and didn’t realize they closed at 9 and we got there at 9 and staff were walking out and I asked if they were closed. They said yes but if I wanted hand-dipped ice cream or water ice they would get it for me. I said oh thank you but we all wanted soft serve. I got back in my car and the owner walked over and said you want soft serve come on I’ll get it for you. He turned the lights back on and made the soft serve himself. We all enjoyed as always from here. What great customer service that is rare these days. Thank you!!“

“Delicious root beer gelati 🎊🎉🎊🎉“

“Older lady made it right. Came here a week ago and they did not fill my quart of water ice to the top. Came back tonight and had asked them to please make sure it was filled and possibly the manager gave me a regular size to make up for the missing water ice in the quart, I definitely appreciated this, good customer service. Will make sure I always come to this location now!“

“First time trying crumbl and this location was close by so we stopped in. I didn’t like it was only a few selections to choose from saying though we wanted to give our honest review. They were nice and warm I can say and great presentation. I just wish I could have tried more flavors. The churro was my favorite by far and the cookies an cream cheesecake not so much. I will return soon to try any new flavors.“

“I’ve been going to. Bruster’s shops for almost 20 years between Florida and now Trevose and the flavors never disappoint! Creamy and delicious homemade ice cream and yummy cakes if you so choose. There’s a flavor for everyone but my favorite is Espresso Yourself, Graham Central Station, New York Cheesecake, and the classic Cookies and Cream. You really can’t go wrong with any of them! The handmade in store waffle cones are to die for! Treat yourself to a tasty treat!“

“Walked approximately 710th of a mile with family for a nice stroll , got gelatis, then walked 710th of a mile back home....of course both ways were up hill. �“

“The other day I went with my family since we were passing through, and I hadn't really tried Rita's so much but such a kind girl called Zareli made my family and I have a great experience, she recommended the frozen ice cream and it was really very good, I would go back once again because thanks to the kind girl I had a great experience“

“I'm just rating the name. A star will be deducted each time ICE passes by without being mooned.“

“It's not the biggest DQ, but it does have like 6 tables inside and the staff is generally very nice. I am pretty sure (about 80%) they don't serve food other than ice cream and other frozen treats. So, don't come looking for burgers and such. That's really all it would take to make this 5 star.“

“Always good when I need a sweet treat“

“No matter when or what time of the day I stopped there everyone was pleasant and had the best customer service skills. If they didn’t have what I wanted which was rare Bryan would make it for me in minutes. So sad today there done. Have a safe winter see you all in the spring. Ps other Rita’s are open for a lil longer but other Rita’s definitely don’t taste like Bryan’s Rita’s.“

“I’ve been going here for years with my wife. Great food and good prices. It’s always nice to support a Muslim business.

Dietary restrictions: My wife can only have dairy free and they’ve always accommodated her and her preferences. And the food doesn’t taste any less great!“

“Loved it !! Great treats .. cute place .. great service !!!“

“Outstanding worker's. always so nice. Best Rita's around“

“Great location! They quickly served our group of over 100 people ( two busloads) on a recent Friday afternoon. We'll be back!“
