I quickly caught on the thing to do here is get a dipped cone, so I obviously got one. I got a cone (they're dipped in chocolate) and got peanuts for coating. It was a mix of whole and chopped. I loved that. My ice cream I did maple walnut (highly recommend) and toasted almond (i would skip this one next time cause the flavor was mild for me) Service was quick and staff was kind about letting me sample. I would come back here. Great post- beach day treat.

We were in the area and decided to finally stop into Ryan's Ice Cream since we had a gift card and…read morewanted to give it a try. The first thing we noticed when we walked in was a very strong bleach smell. I'm all for a place being clean and sanitized, but it was a little overwhelming. That said, the shop itself appeared clean and well maintained. As for the ice cream, I thought it was good and enjoyed what I got. My family had mixed opinions on their selections, but overall I'd say it was decent and worth trying at least once. One complaint was that some of the candy toppings seemed stale, which was a little disappointing. Overall, it wasn't a bad experience by any means, and I'm glad we stopped in and gave it a shot. While the ice cream was good, I'm not sure it's a place I'd specifically go out of my way to visit again.

From the Aldrich Plaza, you will find yourself slipping and sliding towards this ice cream shop…read morewith a lot to offer. Brand: 5/5 Shivers Ice Cream is a family-owned restaurant in operation for 30 years, according to the website. I do like the penguin mascot which perfectly represents the establishment. The slogan "Ice Cream, Cakes, and Fun!" manages to evoke a festive environment that Shivers promises. The shorter the syntax, the more evocative and straight-forward; as any English major would know. I do not know if the canvases of solid colors are meant to represent abstract art, but I can see how it does not conflict with the interior. It does not contrast strongly with the light-colored floor tiles or the walls, but it does not complement them either. The rows of ice cream containers with many flavors entices anyone who looks upon them from behind the glass counter. Website: 3/5 The design of the website looks to have an outdated theme. Also, while it does offer a view of the various cakes with unique designs, it does not have a section dedicated to flavors, despite claiming to offer 30 distinct flavors. Nonetheless, I appreciate the cool blue color that serves as the thematic color of Shivers Ice Cream. Ambiance: 5/5 As expected, the interior felt cold, but not too cold that I wanted to leave immediately. The pop music playing over the radio gave the Shivers Ice Cream establishment a pleasant yet upbeat vibe. While it is a small establishment, it did suit us enough, with its tables having the appropriate width and the chairs not having an uncomfortable feel. Service: 5/5 The staff provided decent service. There is a tip jar for college funds, and I appreciate the transparency of where the money goes. Wait Time: 5/5 Our orders came immediately. Food: 5/5 I ordered the small Snix milkshake. As you can expect, it blends milk, ice cream, and Snickers bits into a milkshake. I can definitely taste the chocolate, caramel, and peanuts that typically come with Snickers. The shake had a well-blended consistency of well-preserved ice cream, which melted easily with every sip. It achieves that creamy texture especially at the top. Worth The Money?: 4/5 While the website does offer a view of the products they have, I would like to see what flavors they can showcase on their website. For an ice cream shop with so much personality, I do not even know what their signature dish is. Perhaps it could be in the form of a new flavor, a milkshake, or an ice cream cookie. The penguin mascot reflects off the chilliness of the establishment and the menu items. I am sure that Coldrich the Penguin (as I would call him as a portmanteau of "cold" and "Aldrich [Plaza]") has a future with this establishment. I would say that I did not waste my time coming here. The price for a small milkshake would have been the same at Dairy Queen, but considering this is a local establishment, I will say that the price is ultimately worth it, though as a second choice (indeed, I would choose Shivers as a first choice if I ever come to Aldrich Plaza again if it is the only ice cream shop there). Rating: 5/5 Stars When it comes to choosing between 4 or 5 stars, I see too much potential in this ice cream shop to give it 4 stars. Recommend To... Anyone who already had something to eat for lunch or dinner in the other local eateries in Aldrich Plaza and want dessert. I also recommend Shivers Ice Cream for the summer for a birthday celebration.

The ice cream itself was better than average, but my review goes down one star because of 2 things: 1. Cash only and the ATM was out of order. 2. We came with our pup and asked for something small for him. We got about a tablespoon worth of vanilla ice cream and it was $3! I questioned how the employee came up with the pricing, but didn't want to argue. I was appalled that they would charge $3 for such a teenie amount. She said it was a kids size but it didn't make sense to me when the small, hard ice cream we got was well-priced at $4 and literally 10x as much ice cream. I wish I had taken a picture of the tbsp of ice cream we got for reference because we definitely got gypped lol

I was taken aback because it was unexpected and because of the odd behavior of just getting into our space and just standing and not saying anything right away.

Stomach hurts so not sure they follow hygienic protocols - just hope it's not food poisoning . The whole experience was strange and unfortunate because we enjoyed it the last time we were there. Still gave her a tip and maybe she's new and was just being a bit awkward- but perhaps she needs better employee training or help with her customer service.

Their ice cream contains the highest quality ingredients and all of their flavor flavors are handcrafted in house. You can really taste the difference! We tried a variety of amazing flavors like the mint fudge swirl, Nutella Graham, Callie's cotton candy, and the Dubai chocolate, but my favorites were Cookie Monster and biscoff cookie butter! You can order an ice cream flight which is perfect for indecisive people like me. Six flavors, sounds good to me! Their sundaes are huge and could be shared with 2 people. The brownie sundae was decadent and dripping in fudge. Yum! I like that it's indoors which means you can come here year round. There's plenty of seating in their adorable ice cream shop, which is adorned with painted sprinkles all over the walls! There's claw machines for kids and even a photo booth. Pints, ice cream sandwiches, and more in their freezer ready to go. Can't wait to be back for more!

They also have Italian ice and ice cream flights where you can try 6 different flavors - so worth it, and you get to try all their epic flavors. It's also so cute inside - they have a Photo Booth machine and offer birthday parties with ceramic painting. Not to mention staff working behind the counter are always so friendly and helpful.

Prior to visiting this store I had no idea what Concept Sweet was selling. Was it an ice cream…read moreshop? Candy store? Retail? I guess you can say it's a combination of all of these, but if you look at the owners pictures, you weren't sure what you are walking into, because all his pictures are stock photos of what he is selling and you don't actually see the actual store inside and items sold. In a nutshell, Concept Sweet sells what ever the owner wants - ice cream, candy, sweets (some savory), and a variety of cute instagrammable merchandise . The description is very basic, but when you walk into the shop, you see there is much more than that! The ice cream can be served in many different ways. A variety of flavored scoops in a cup, scoop(s) on a cone, on a flavored cone, on a J cone, as ice cream nachos, as Dole whip, on a hot waffle, with or without toppings, with or without accessories, shaped like sushi, as spaghetti, shaped like pizza, etc. It's crazy, I know. They also sell ices, push pops, cake pops, Du's Donuts, chocolates, candies, cookies, cupcakes, and cute merchandise to make a parties more fun. I'm sure I missed something...just look at the Yelp pictures and you can see the 500+ pics the owner posted! There are the usual candies and chocolates you will find at many convenient stores. What's cool about Concept Sweet is that there are many unique sweets you won't find easily locally, such as Pocket Latte Chocolate bars, Pac man Arcade Candy, and Gumby Gummy candy. The owner has put so many unique sweets into this store! This includes the beverages (check out my pics). Another example are donuts from Du's Donuts in Brooklyn, NY., owned by the famous Wylie Dufresne. I actually came in looking to buy these! I purchased 4 Du's Donuts: the lemon matcha,coffee cake, chocolate caramel brownie, and blueberry crumble. I thought they tasted pretty good, but they are not that much better than a Duck Donuts or Broad Street Dough which are priced lower per specialty donut. While we were there, my daughter also ordered a plain scoop of pumpkin ice cream and she said she liked it. Despite the pricing of Du's Donuts, I like Concept Sweet and its er, concept. I didn''t really notice the price after purchasing, but I'm estimating over a couple bucks per - closer to three bucks. There are cheaper donuts but you'd have to drive further to get a specialty donut, especially Du's which is located in Williamburg, Brooklyn! I'm not sure when they get the donuts but they didn't taste stale at all. They even had Halloween donuts available. I'd like to see Concept sweets do well as it seems like the owner is really putting it all into his business. It's a fun store with many unique items. See for yourself!
