“One of my favorite places to go in the summer is Rita's Italian Ice and Frozen Custard. This place sells soft serve custard, Italian ice, and specialty creations. Be sure to sample a few flavors because some of their flavors may shock you. I have never seen such a large variety of Ice flavors. They serve everything: cotton candy, strawberry colada and unicorn just to name a few of the more surprising flavors! They also have fast service and allow you to try different flavors. My favorite item to order is the gelati: layers of Italian ice and custard. My favorite to mix are mango Italian ice and vanilla custard. However, you're also able to order a cup of just Italian ice or a cup of just custard. You may want to ask for extra containers so that it's easy to take your dessert home or to a cute location to enjoy!“

“Genuinely delicious drinks. Mango ginger is my favorite! The strawberry Boba tea is really good too.I've watched Ital grow consistently over the past year. It's wonderful to see them every week in the Manchester farmers market. I am happy to see them expand and can't wait for more!“

“BEST PLACE EVER!! Ice cream was my love but since going here, their Italian ice & gelato is my absolute FAV! Such an amazing hidden gem in Middletown, I usually buy pints to keep me happy through winter when they close. Great customer service, clean store inside, a variety of options, and they give you a lot for the cost. Vecchittos has my heart.“

“I dont even write reviews tbh. Being from new haven i know we are kinda snooty with our opinion on pizza, im telling you this place would not only stand it in new haven, it would be a favorite spot for alot of people. After trying so many spots out here and failing this spot was a breath of fresh air. I will only order from them from now on.“

“The English Toffee is my favorite. Highly recommend. Customer service is great. I had a minor issue once and it was taken care of promptly. I will be a longtime customer.“

“We have been going for many years and even after a new owner to took over . The services have been always great . My one recommendation and it’s my favorite and had about it many years ago is to carry coconut flavored .. but other then that it’s continues to be a very busy hot spot and a nice hang out in the back . I love that place“

“Sharing this timely update from Robb's Farm! This is the last weekend of the season to get scoops rather than only quarts. Last chance to get scoops! It's Robb's last week scooping ice cream in the shop! Hours are Thursday from 4-7pm and Friday/Saturday/Sunday from 12noon-8pm. We have our farm grown pumpkins and quarts of ice cream available as well, see you there!“

“First and foremost the smell just takes you away when step foot inside ! This already has you tasting it in the air ! The staff was incredible and didn’t miss a sprinkle . Kobe was incredibly and charming and I would recommend trying them every week ! Gill presented the cookies to me and they were handled amazingly ! And it smelled so clean and sanitary I asked her name it and was laila and said you will get recognition as well because everyone counts !!! This organization is a sweet place ! Since there’s always a new flavor ! Thanks for the sweet attention and cookies .“

“Love, love love the homemade ice cream at Mortensens! This was honestly the best ice cream I’ve ever had in my life! It was such a treat to be greeted by the owner Rod as he shared the history of his family business with me! This ice cream parlor is amazing. I highly recommend you try it if you’re in the area! I wish we had a Mortensen in Virginia! I can’t wait to visit again soon to try all the flavors they offer! Thanks again, Rod for your awesome service and the stress cow that was with me during my travels!“

“There’s really nothing negative I could ever say about Rita’s. Specifically this location has some of the best service I experienced, especially for a chain eatery. Love coming here, too bad it wasn’t open year around! Yet, again, if it was I think I’d be 1000lbs because I come so often!!! These kids deserve a raise for how outstanding they treat their customers!!!“

“Charming atmosphere and great owners/staff! Creamy homemade ice cream that’s well worth the trip! Great community supporter also.“

“We hired Blue Chip Creamery for an employee appreciation event and we were not disappointed. The ice-cream was delicious and the driver (unfortunately forgot her name, very sweet blonde woman) did a great job keeping up with the orders. The pricing was very fair and the flavors were very unique, people loved the different options! The staff were also super accommodating to our last minute attendee changes. Would 10/10 recommend this truck for any event.“

“It's kind of a low-key five-star place. Like when you taste the ice cream it tastes exactly creamy in the way ice cream should. When you walk into the ice cream store you forget that ice cream has a smell. And that's how you know you got in that fresh House made/local stuff“

“I love this place and I stop in everytime I go through the area. The sandwiches are hearty and reasonably priced, the coffee is great and the staff is so incredibly NICE. The interior has no frills and I love it, no froufrou, just honest to goodness food, drink, and service. Highly recommend!“

“The Mrs. wanted ice cream and so we decided to give this place a try. We figured/hoped it would not be too crowded and at the same time, we wanted it to be good.Well, the ice cream was delicious. The place was more steady than busy thanks to the staff. They were quick and attentive & at the same time, still friendly.Now, back to the ice cream...I was going to get Salty Caramel, but "discovered" something called "Peanut Butter Chip Swirl" - Vanilla Ice Cream with Chocolate Chunks and a peanut butter ripple. I got it on a sugar cone and this thing was all I hoped for. The portion was generous and the flavor fantastic!We will definitely be coming back here again in the future...“

“Delicious dairy free ice cream! I’m told by my family the REAL ice cream is delicious, too! My granddaughter loved the cookies & cream and the chocolate chip dairy free… I’m very fond of the strawberry and blueberry swirl. Staff is warm and friendly… we go (too) often!!!!“

“I had the best fish sandwich ever, highly recommend.“

“This has been my go to ice cream shop for the past two years. I absolutely love coming here with the kids and alone for a little treat myself day. Anytime I’m in hartford I feel like it’s an excuse to get my fav vanilla icecream and gummy bears lol highly recommend! Friendly staff, great seating options“

“Our employer treated their employees to Blue Chip Creamery. We had their cookie ice cream sandwiches. Not only did they have a great selection but the cookies were fresh not hard and the ice cream was AMAZING!! All 100+ employees recommend them VERY HIGHLY!! They even delivered them to us and on time!! Thank you. We will use you again I'm sure!!“

“Walk up ice cream stand. Order at the window and hope the kid remembers what you ordered. Overall- good place to go for ice cream and I do recommend. I think they need a better register system because the kids can never seem to remember what anyone ordered (granted we were in a group) but most places have ticket systems to help combat this. The kid would take 4 orders bring two then asked the other two people what they ordered. As someone else mentioned they never seem to have bananas- they have long menu that you can’t really see until you get up to order- if they had an online menu people might be quicker to order.In summary is the ice cream good and the price right? Yes. Is it efficient - absolutely not.“

“Came here for the first time today with my best friends and I got the strawberry cheesecake frappe. And it was very very good. The staff there is very nice and they speak Spanish which is my language which I also liked. Highly recommend will be coming back here again!“

“The best sandwiches and best customer service in Hartford...Curt and his fellow staff members are artists in creating the best grinders whether hot or cold.I recommend this deli to anyone I see. It makes Subway look like a bunch of amateurs. Try this deli once and you'll never go anywhere else.“

“Matt and Jonah know how to put a chili dog together. Great service. Quality food for the price.“

“It's Ben & Jerries. They are awesome. Though staff seem a little short staffed for the cleaning and last minute service needs. Seems like often one person is there to do it all. But may have been a call out that day. Always clean, variety offered.“

“Talk about a fantastic hot dog. This 1950s style diner is famous for their 10 inch hot dogs for good reason. The hot dog itself has tons of flavor and can be served with numerous toppings. I recommend adding cheese which they melt between the bun and the hot dog so it's almost like it's wrapped in grilled cheese! The parking lot has picnic tables for the summer time and the staff is friendly. It is cash only but there is an atm inside!“

“We went the other day and the blizzards were delicious. Two complaints we have are the prices of the ice cream and they stopped selling chocolate sprinkles! The service is pretty good but the parking is not ideal. Tight spaces and the walking traffic could be potentially dangerous. We love the various varieties of blizzards such as mint oreo, brownie and snickers. With that said, if you're around the Berlin Turnpike and you want some decent ice cream, this is the place to go.“

“One of my new favorite places. The staff is very helpful and pleasant. Went once with my cousin who ranted and raved above their corn on the cob. She was right - it is so sweet (I ate it off the cob w/out boiling); that's how good it is. Green tomatoes were also great! They have a nice general store too. Will be back!“

“Legendary!! Forever a Manchester staple! Recently on their website and can’t believe everything that they have to offer: weddings, parties, graduations desserts in bulk …you can always get some of their favorites at Highland Park market in Manchester…I recommend a chipwich …Im sure most people would but also their spumoni slices, so good!“

“I personally enjoy me some Mooyah. The burgers and fries are always delicious. Definitely get a shake, they are nice and thick. Staff is always super friendly and they even bring your food out to the table if you dine in. I recommend give it a try!“
