OMG!!! My wife & I love this place! So glad it has a large parking lot as it can get quite crowded with a line leading to the ordering window. BUT the line moves quick do know what you want from its huge selection of treats. I love the pistachio ice cream. My wife adores the snowballs with marshmallow in the middle snd on top. Be sure to throw a tip in the jar as the crew inside deserve a perk for their work! read more

Great ice cream with a lot of choices: shakes, sundaes, cones. Service is quick and staff very friendly

This place is just not very good. I wanted a sundae and was told I couldn't get it with hand dipped ice cream, just soft serve. Then told just chocolate, but they were out of it. So I got what I wanted, despite them wanting me not to? It was weird. The sundae was mostly marshmallow topping. Underwhelming, overall. Not walkable from anywhere, parking lot is a mess, and cash only. I don't recommend. read more

Stopped by after a day at the beach. We were debating about splitting a Sundae but after we saw the size of it we passed. Another patron had ordered "the Terminator" and it was HUGE-like serving 2 people huge. Got a small cone with Zombie flavor - chocolate ice scream with cookie dough and chocolate syrup. Really good. Ice cream is obviously home made and great quality. read more

What better way to cool down than to stop by a local ice cream parlor and just gaze at the huuuge selection they have. First and foremost, they are Cash Only. There's an ATM next door. Moving on!... The ice cream is so creamy and respectfully thicc. You'll be able to coat your mouth and chew on it at the same time (it's a thing, chill). I got the Cotton Candy and the Bourbon Molasses one.. and they were both really true to their flavor. Will be back again whenever in the area! read more

Our favorite ice cream place at the beach! Try the banana pudding. It gets very busy in the evening, so plan to wait in line or go earlier in the day. read more

The best ice cream to get anywhere. Whenever we come down here, the first thing we do is go to Bonkey's because it's just that good. Every single flavor is amazing. I highly recommend the lemon grass basil, orange creamsicle, Cookie Monster, double dark chocolate, triple chocolate, and any sundae. The sundaes are really good, but definitely something to share. read more

Good ice cream, good staff, and a cool spot, i recommend it to anyone! (cool stickers too), definitely make a stop here

Best ice cream place in Bethany Beach BY FAR! So many unique ice cream flavor options and the ice cream itself is super soft. There is something for everyone here. I'm sure the line get pretty long, however we had no issues when we went. A regular size is more than enough - good portion sizes! read more

Excellent ice-cream. We have been here almost every night during vacation and every flavor is better than the last!! Must try!!

Not a fan of the ice cream. For the price, I do not think it is that good. I had brownie batter and it had no flavor at all.

Such a good local spot for a sweet treat! Everyone loved their flavors, especially my husband who mixed two flavors in a milkshake. Just bring cash! Friendly staff, great taste, and close to home. Can't ask for anything more. read more

Great local ice cream place! I tried the triple chocolate and one filled with peanut butter and marshmallows. There were so many interesting flavors to choose from with fun names. read more

Incredible homemade ice cream. New location is bigger and (somehow) even better than the original in Bethany. I got the Zombie flavor (chocolate, peanut butter, cookie dough & Oreo crumbles) in a waffle cone, and my husband got a Hawaiian flavor that had coconut, pineapple and cherry in it. Super refreshing and the service was friendly. read more

Always end up going to Bonkey's when we r in town. Lots of flavors and combinations. They only have a few seating places wish they would a add a few more as they get busy and eating in the car, especially if you have kids can get a bit messy. If you like ice cream this is the place to try different things. read more

Kids had the shaved ice. So many flavors and cool toppings like marshmallow fluff and fresh coconut. A lot of original ice cream flavors too! read more

Delicious homemade ice cream and soft serve. They have large number of fun and unique hard serve flavors to try.

Amazing, totally dangerous to all within a 10 minute drive this summer! Possibly debilitating to month long, beach renters. This is the real McCoy! Creative, fun, delicious and all real ice cream, devoid of emulsifiers, preservatives and the most often cheater ingredient - air. A SOLID winner with amazing flavors like burnt sugar! Imagine the last taste of cotton candy as you swallow. OMG read more

Love the flavors at Bonkey's! We are very sad they are not in Rehoboth anymore, but made the drive to Bethany. It was worth it! The Zombie is my favorite! Love the chocolate crunchies! read more

So disappointed that I paid over $12 for a quart of ice cream and this is what I get it's about half full ! read more

See all

it's homemade ice cream. it's homemade. you really need to just try it for yourself because it's divine. the sundaes are well worth the $$ but i prefer to stick with 2 flavors on a cone. i tried the cheesecake and the joe's garage flavors and both were awesome. this place would get 5 stars except they ran out of cookie dough ice cream which is a sin... my freezer never runs out of cookie dough ice cream. the staff are friendly and keep the line moving. a great find thanks to my mama and papa! from their website: we use a mix of milk, cream and sugar, a recipe that is manufactured and processed especially for us, from a local pennsylvania dairy. this special milk mix is delivered within 3 days of milking the cows, already homogenized and pasteurized. we add the freshest ingredients and flavors to ensure our ice cream is the creamy, best! read more

What a hidden treasure! Bonkeys homemade ice cream can't be beat. Our favorite was the freshly-made marshmallow on the sundaes--amazing!!! read more

Bonkey's - Regular-size Sundae from Bonkeys - Comfort Food Near Me - Millville, Delaware

Interestingly, actual homemade ice cream in Bethany can be hard to come by. The speciality in the area is frozen custard, peddled by places like Kohr's Brothers and Dicky's. A place like Bonkey's is nice to have-homemade ice cream, unique flavors, good prices, and fast service make for a really good experience. My sundae consisted of peanut butter chocolate and Nutella ice cream, hot fudge, whipped cream, crushed peanuts, and a cherry on top. (Full on 3rd trimester food baby) And honestly, while everything all together was really good, the actual ice cream didn't blow me away. The Nutella tasted mostly like chocolate and not Nutella. The peanut butter chocolate also tasted of mostly chocolate and not peanut butter. Hot fudge was excellent though. Whipped cream tasted homemade, and for the sake of this review we'll pretend it was. Peanuts tasted like peanuts. Cherry was red, stemless, and of the marachino variety...mmm Could Bonkey's do a bit better with the ice cream flavors? Sure. Could they charge twice what they charge now for a sundae and get away with it? Probably. Bonkey's isn't perfect, but they do it right. Recommended. read more

Love the ice cream. Great toasted coconut. Staff also very friendly. Two great locations.

My new secret find for ice cream at the beach. A short drvie inland and way worth it. Silly name, I know, but probably belongs to the family that owns the place. I'm hoping... Great homemade ice cream and many flavors to choose from. Drive inland past Ocean view. Look for shack like building on right, next to hairdressers. In random location. If there is not a crowd (which there usually is) you may pass it right by. Don't give up -- it's worth it and way better than any of the ice cream joints in town. read more

Five stars for the ice cream, but have to knock it down to four stars based on the confused kid serving us (had to repeat the order about three times) and the overflowing and gross trash can. Horchata and Banana Pudding flavors were so good. Also could use some more benches outside for seating, as it gets VERY crowded at night. read more

Ice cream here was delicious. Between my family and I we must have tried at least 10+ flavors and not a single one we didn't love. Great proportions for the price you pay. Loved it and definitely will be coming back more as soon as I can! read more

Really great ice cream and pleasant staff. The hot fudge sauce is amazing. The large sundaes are huge and definitely could be shared among 2 or 3 people. read more

I don't want to write an amazing review... which this place deserves but I don't want to do it because I don't anyone else to know about it. I want to be able to get out of my car and have unbelievable ice cream and not deal with the madness that this place deserves. Please Bonky keep making more and more amazing flavors!!! And I will continue to not tell anyone. Just kidding... I can't help chatting about your ice cream!!! You had me day one with the lemongrass basil. Back tomorrow for the Lavender lemon. Can you can consider a rosemary white chocolate? Ahhhhhh....can't wait to try it all! read more

Good place for those who can eat dairy and often visit for my wife and MIL to enjoy. Lots of flavors but unfortunately no nondairy options. Be careful exiting onto 26 in high season. Tourists abound! read more

Bonkey's really is one of the best ice cream places I have ever been to. The people are always so nice and it's a great spot to hangout with friends and family to enjoy delicious ice cream. I wish it was open year round, their ice cream is so good you can enjoy it when it's freezing out! read more

Damned good Ice cream with a litany of flavors! One cannot come in here saying, They don't have my flavor - Shut up!!!!!!!! read more

Bonkey's - Flavors, y'all !!! - Comfort Food Near Me - Millville, Delaware

This is the best place for ice cream in Bethany Beach. They have unusual flavors and cones made of cookies. Great for kids.

Just discovered this place last weekend and we came back this weekend. There really is something for everyone here. Last weekend I had the pineapple upside down cake ice cream, which was one if the best things I've ever tasted. My husband tried the Cookie Monster last weekend (they said it was their best seller), and he had it again last night. The toasted coconut and chocolate peanut butter were also great. We have a new dessert spot at the beach! Pros: great ice cream, exceptional flavor options, friendly service. Cons: only bad thing is the location (in a parking lot next to a truck trailer) and dumpster. read more

Friendly, quick service, good selection of frozen treat, good ice cream and reasonable prices. What's not to love.

Along with Blue Scoop, this is one of the best ice cream places in the area. Forget Kohr Brothers. Bonkey's is the real deal!

Best shaved ice/ice cream! So many different flavors!!! And great prices. I got the blue raspberry shaved ice and you can add any flavor of ice cream in it! Best money I've spent read more

We love Bonkey's but went there yesterday and the two employees that helped us didn't understand English very well. We ordered a chocolate cone with chocolate sprinkles a pretty easy order. They had to make it three times just to get it right. They seemed very confused. In the years passed we never had this problem. I hope it's not doing down hill. read more

Good ice cream on a hot day! Delicious flavors and so hard to choose

This place is great! Reasonable prices and so many unique flavors! The building itself looks so cool with all the bright colors. Staff are always so nice, the ice cream is great always and I love trying all the flavors! read more
