31 Best Ice Cream Shops near Woonsocket

“Alien Ice was so perfect for an ice cream social event we had at my place of work. It gave our employees an opportunity for a sweet summer treat and a chance to mix and mingle off of the work floor. Sean was super personable and had an extensive list to choose from with such a nostalgic 90's vibe! Definitely stood out from other ice cream trucks with the Alien theme and that caught everyone's attention. Thank you for making our day, Alien Ice! 5 Stars from us!“

“Took my toddler here Monday and my only regret with coming here is that we’ve lived in North Smithfield for several years and this was our first time coming! My son (almost 3) loved seeing the cows and trucks that were set up there. We went inside to get a snack and he started having a mini meltdown because he wanted to go back outside. An employee (wish I got her name) came from behind the register and gave him a couple stickers and told me I was doing a great job, which really means a lot when you feel like you’re doing something wrong as a mom. I appreciate that woman more than she realized! 💕 I ordered a cream puff and 2 chocolate chip cookies. When the employee from behind the counter handed me my box she let me know she gave us an extra cookie! The employees really were amazing. My son loved his cookie, and I’ve been dreaming of that cream puff ever since 🤤 we can’t wait to come back and try the ice cream! Great snacks and even greater employees! Thank you for a great day!“

“Great place! YOUR one stop for everything! Coffee, snacks, salads, pizza, ice cream! This place has it all! Great staff and Fadi is a great person all around! Always willing to donate and help anybody that comes in the front door!“

“Ice Cream Is On Point! The Scoops Are Huge. The Owners are Awesome people. it's just the start of the season. I can't wait until many many more visits this summer!“

“Ho-ho-hopeful! There’s a new ice cream joint in town called The North Pole. Because nothing says “summer treat” quite like being reminded of subzero temperatures and forgotten Christmas decor. The name is about as original as a made-for-TV Christmas movie—and the life-sized Santa statue standing guard outside doesn’t exactly help break new ground. If you’ve ever wanted to be judged by a plastic Claus while licking a cone in July, your time has come. The parking lot is flanked by tiny trees—well, technically saplings. They’re trying their best, but unless you’re under 3 feet tall or a garden gnome, don’t count on shade. I guess the owners figured the North Pole isn’t known for towering oaks anyway (there is shade under an awning though, don’t fret). That said, the place does have good bones. The building has that classic small-town ice cream stand charm, the menu has potential, and there’s clearly effort being made behind the scenes. You can tell someone cares! On to the actual product: the whipped cream is clearly made in-house, which I applaud. It’s thick, creamy, and rich—basically one step away from butter. But somewhere in the process, they forgot the sugar. It’s like someone churned up a dairy masterpiece and then whispered “sweet” instead of actually making it sweet. A few spoonfuls of sugar and we’re in business! Now, for a special customer service moment. Our server—my sister—came outside, sat down, and casually helped herself to several bites of our ice cream. No apron, no warning, just grabbed a spoon like she owned the place (she doesn’t). You could call it inappropriate, but I call it sibling tax. As for the banana split: it arrived in the general shape of a banana split, but the toppings were in some kind of abstract interpretive dance. The chocolate syrup was poured over the vanilla scoop, the pineapple sauce ended up on the chocolate scoop, and no one even mentioned chopped nuts. I’m not allergic, so that omission stung. But alas, it was my sister avoiding the awkward situation where she asked if I wanted nuts. I get it. Also worth noting: the building used to be Sandy’s Ice Cream—the one famously shut down for running an illegal drug ring. Honestly? The splits were better back then. Sure, there may have been felonies involved, but at least they put the chocolate on the chocolate! In summary, The North Pole might cool you down, but it won’t blow you away. It’s festive, it’s local, and it’s fine if your expectations are low and your siblings bring their own spoons. I’m just being silly. Please go eat their ice cream and support the business. It’s because of faithful patrons like you that local businesses can thrive!“

“Great place with great ice cream. They've got a ton of great flavors but the one I liked in particles was s'mores something.This is a great place to head to after grabbing a bite from Beef Barn. Also a nice walkway by a pond over there.“

“Went to the shack today, and it was a really nice experience! I love what Alex and his team have done with the place! The ice cream flavors and variety of toppings are very good. The lemonade beats Del’s by a mile! If you’re lucky, you might catch one of their trucks leaving or pulling up. Haven’t gone yet for the live music and entertainment. But this shack is a good option if you’re not able to catch one of their trucks around RI / MA. Stop by!“

“We try something new each time we go. They have something for everyone“

“I am not one for reviews but this one is well deserved. The new management did an amazing job reopening — the place looks clean, bright, and welcoming. The two girls working were incredibly friendly and patient with my daughter while taking our order, considering how busy it was. You can tell they enjoy their job and customers. I had a strawberry sundae and my daughter had a dipped cone. Both were delicious! So happy to see this place brought back to life! 10/10 recommend.“

“Absolutely Fresh Tasting Frozen yogurt flavors , nice and cold. Very happy with toppings and Whipped Cream (remebervto ask before paing) is real. Personnel at pegister (was he the owner?) Had a good sense of humor.“

“My husband and I get our daughter an icecream cake every year here for her birthday... Every year they have done an amazing job!!!! But this year.... They absolutely outdid themselves!!!! My daughter asked for a Jojo Siwa cake and boy did they deliver!!!! They didn't have a picture for Jojo Siwa and asked if I could email them the picture I wanted. Which was super easy!!! The woman I spoke to was so sweet!!! (I think she said Tina was her name?) I emailed the picture right over and they had it done in no time.... When I saw it I was absolutely in love!!! But When my daughter saw the cake she started happy crying saying how beautiful it came out and how it was better than what she had ever dreamed of.... She said it was the best cake she has ever had!!! Thank you guys so much for making her birthday extra special!!! ❤“

“Chowder - creamy, tons of clams, very tasteless
Clam cake - my very favorite, hot and tons of clams meat in the cake
Fish taco - incredible flavor , with cold slaws, and pickle onion is a great addition
Clam strips - tender, crisp, tastes awesome together with the tartar sauce provided“

“Delicious seafood and people are so nice, you can an ice cream too! Love this place!“

“I always find the staff at this DQ to be extremely friendly. I went to get an ice cream cake the other night, and when asked if I wanted something written on it, I said “feel better “. When I got to the window to pay, the 3 young ladies working told me that they hoped he felt better soon ! So sweet. Not only is the food and ice cream delicious, I left with caring wishes.“

“I was pleased with my lunch. I had a medium awful awful vanilla. It went well with my patty melt. Nice place.“
