The Celtic Creamery provides reasonably priced ice cream that tastes absolutely phenomenal!read more

This review involves both Celtic Creamery and DoorDash…read more If you order from Celtic Creamery through DoorDash, be aware. My last two orders had major issues. On 6/4, my order arrived completely melted because the ice cream had leaked through a paper lunch bag after the containers weren't properly closed. I figured "mistakes happen" and let it go. However, my most recent order (6/23) arrived with only one of the three items I paid for ( on a $45+ order). I remember not too long ago when businesses took more ownership of problems like this. I know DoorDash can issue a partial refund, but that isn't really the point. I paid for a service and tonight when something went wrong, everyone just pointed somewhere else. The part I can't get past is that LITERALLY no one could tell me where the rest of my order went. Like, hello?! The driver said there were no additional bags. So I called Celtic Creamery and the guy on the phone said they had tried to tell him there were multiple bags as the dasher left (which I have a hard time believing when the dasher was a 5 star dasher with over 1k ratings.) But if that's true...then where did the other $27 of my order go? What surprised me even more was that NO ONE offered a practical solution. If the missing items were still at the shop, I would have gladly driven over to pick them up. Even something as simple as, "We're sorry. Come pick up the rest of your order, and here's a free scoop or a small gift card for the inconvenience," would have gone a long way toward keeping me as a customer. Instead, the conversation ended with little more than an apology and no real attempt to resolve what happened. A lack of ownership is what lost my business. While DoorDash shares *some* responsibility, these issues have happened with different drivers on multiple orders from Celtic Creamery, which makes me question the store's packaging and order verification process. If a business chooses to offer delivery, orders should be packaged securely and verified before they leave the store--especially when signature desserts cost $12 or more a piece. The ice cream itself is good. Our first order was excellent, which makes these last two experiences even more disappointing. Unfortunately, repeated problems with missing items, melted deliveries, and a lack of accountability mean I won't be ordering from Celtic Creamery again.

Such a cute ice cream shop located near Front Street in Wilmington. I was greeted as soon as I…read moreentered the shop. The employee was so nice and friendly. She said that I could taste as many ice cream flavors as I wanted to......say less...lol. I only tried 1 and instantly fell in love. I got the cold brew ice cream in a waffle bowl. Soo good! I enjoyed every bit. If I am ever in Wilmington I will definitely be back for a nice cool and refreshing dessert.

Ordered a dozen donuts, unfortunately kids and parents were disappointed. We were excited with the…read moreflavors , ordering mostly originals- French toast, maple bacon, lemon, cookies and cream, s'mores and then made 4 donuts custom flavors, chocolate glazed with m&ms, sprinkles, marshmallow swizzle, etc. The donuts were overfried- crisp darker brown on the outside and soft on the inside but almost oozing with oil. The donuts were small, it almost was like there wasn't enough doughnut for the amount of topping. We had been to OKI donuts on a previous vacation and were happy to see that it was the same owners. We were hoping for the same fantastic donuts. Disappointed that it fell short and especially that it was $29 for a dozen that nobody really wanted to even finish eating.

Let me start by saying that although this is a donut shop, do NOT disregard the ice cream. Because…read moreto me, the ice cream is the star. Not only do they not price the ice cream by scoop (so you get LOTS of ice cream), but they make their waffle cones fresh! You do get to try any flavors you're interested in. They even have some flavors that are vegan (made with oat milk)! We also got a tootie fruity donut that was good, and tasted like cake. But I still believe that the ice cream should be given their due! 8/10 - if you love sweets, you will love this place!

They have milkshakes, ice cream, banana splits, floats, waffle cones, and usually taco ice cream…read morebut no tacos were available during my visit. The teenager staff were friendly and cute. All of the ice cream is made in house. Ordered the Unicorn ($14) freakshake, which is birthday cake ice cream with airhead candy and cotton candy and sweet little crunchy bits on the rim. The unicorn freak shake was delicious! It comes in a plastic jar which you get to keep. This will be my go to spot for sweet cravings!

It's a walk up ice cream bar. They do have food, but we all had ice cream cones. I had coffee. It…read morewas great good coffee flavor. Like eating a cup of coffee with cream. Yum! The family all said they give it two thumbs up as well. It gets crowded, but don't let that deter you. They are good at staying friendly and keeping the line moving. Many people seemed to walk. We drove and have no problem with parking in their private lot.

The options are somewhat limited but the soft serve is wonderful! Watch out if you have kids…read morebecause soft serve melts fast, bring some wipes too as extra napkins were hard to come by here. We went back multiple times on our stay though, our kids loved the flavored ice and we enjoyed the soft serve! It's a small outdoor spot with limited seating so be ready to enjoy your treat while standing.

My mother bragged about this place the whole trip, but she was Wright the ice cream is juicy,…read morecreamy, fresh and sooo good!!! I do recommend they should give a variation with the cones but hey no complaints I still loved it!!!

First - THANKS for being open until 10pm on a Thursday! Great simple cone options for a decent…read moreprice (a small is about $3 and was plenty without being overkill or too little ---- dare I say 'just right'?!). They have cup options with toppings, everything looked fresh & clean. I love the idea of adding just a touch of flavor to a plain vanilla-twist (soft serve) cone, great little treat! This is not a 'gourmet' ice cream shop, just a quaint little soft-serve place on the boardwalk. And I appreciate not having to pay $8 for a little soft serve cone that had a great twist of flavor....was it 'epic'? no....but 'just right' ? Yesssssir. ;o)

They are efficient and move quickly. My kids loved the Cookie Monster ice cream and I did too! Plenty of options and no one in our group was disappointed.

It was very hot and no less hot outside the stand which does stink for summer days and melting. The price point is higher but it wasn't terrible and the size was good for the cost. The teens working weren't the most friendly but nothing rude, it was hot, its peak season and I know everyone's tired. Would come back for sure
