Usually staffed by high school or college students which has never been an issue, you just need to remember they are kids! The ice cream is great and there are a number of ordering options. It's a great setting, literally a hole in the wall along Bay View Street. read more

Cannoli ice cream with blueberry sauce!!! What?! This is single-handedly one of the BEST flavors of ice cream I've ever had in my life! I was so impressed. Their smallest cup still gave me a good portion to satisfy my sweet tooth. Staff was great and welcoming. Hubby really enjoyed his double flavor mint choco chip med cup. No place to sit, but who wants to sit in the summer while enjoying their ice cream?! Camden is such a lovely walkable town and this shop makes it great! read more

It's ice-cream and it's yummy. Cute little shop and lots of flavors. I had the single scoop of cherry ice-cream and the hubs tried peach and vanilla for his 2 scoops. read more

This place is a must! If the s'mores or the banana cream pie is on the menu run don't walk. These flavors are out of this world. Went here multiple times during my stay in Camden. Cute stand right off the drag, perfect spot to take a little stroll with your ice cream after dinner and admire the beautiful boats in the harbor. read more

A great variety of very good ice cream. They have a very efficient and well thought out takeout process to deal with the current pandemic. read more

If you are looking for a affordable sweet treat after dinner or while enjoying a stroll in downtown. Great flavor combos. We got the eagle tracks and Rocky road something... both were great. It's a little hole in the wall but well worth the stop. read more

Had a cup of delicious strawberry cheesecake ice cream. The employee was very friendly.

It's a nice treat to have in the summer. good selection of flavors and they offer a kid-sized cone. They use Round top ice cream which I heard is local, so a better quality than most mass produced ice cream. But I wouldn't put this anywhere near my top ten places to go for ice cream. Honestly, it's nice just to have 2 options for ice cream in Camden, but both are obviously for tourists. So if you are walking around town and want something sweet, this is a good option. read more

I can't even fault them a star for not having places to sit because their flavors and portions are so awesome! Their shakes are a treat to sip on while walking the docks and the cones, even the kid size, is ample and fabulous! read more

Very popular spot..usually lines of people waiting. Ice cream flavors are extensive and good quality.

This is a nice little ice cream shop that had a lot of interesting flavors. However for someone with a peanut allergy I found the fact that they used the same scoop for all ice cream a little concerning. But other than that everything was good. read more

On my last day on vacation here in Camden, my wife and I decided to try this cute little hole-in-the-wall ice cream shop. Even with a line down the street, I got my ice cream within seconds! This was a dream in comparison to the other place we tried with the footbridge. The girls behind the counter were so friendly and enthusiastic; they helped my wife and I to decide which flavors to indulge in. We went for sea salt caramel and German chocolate- delicious!!! Gifford ice cream is always a treat to us New Englanders, and it was served with such bright smiles and friendliness, we will for sure be back! Great service, great ice cream, great location. This shop is a Maine staple for everyone!! read more

Love this shop. Too many flavors to list. Maple walnut my favorite . Nice to see people out and about. read more

Delicious! Hubby got blueberry and I got blueberry crumble. Creamy, perfectly sweet (but not too much). A single scoop in a waffle cone did the trick. read more

Cute little shop on a quieter back street. Delicious ice cream. Good portions! There are so many choices. I had the medium waffle cone, and could barely finish it and the two scoops of deliciousness. My husband had the scoop waffle bowl. Wow. Just wow read more

Camden Cone - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Camden, Maine

Fantastic local ice cream joint located close to the harbor. It is about 8 feet wide and seems to fit like a shoebox between the taller buildings surrounding it. I visited one afternoon while in the area recently and was excited to see the variety of flavors that were offered. I sampled a few and finally decided on something a little different, a maple walnut this time. Served in a cake cone, it hit the spot for me in the muggy heat of July. Grab a cone from the friendly teenagers scooping up singles and doubles and savor the flavors of summer in Camden! read more

Their ice cream was so tasty, one of the most unique flavors I've ever tasted. Quick line, take credit cards. read more

Camden Cone - 1 scoop of Maine berry in a waffle cone - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Camden, Maine

Tried this spot during Covid crisis. They were doing a good job with the precautions. I ordered 2 root beer floats ($5.00 @). They were constructed by a young man of maybe 14. He presented us with the saddest excuse for root beer floats ever. In an about 16 oz glasses there was a a small scoop of vanilla ice cream and what was probably 12 oz of warm root beer split between the two. With that, the glasses were about half full. When I commented to the young man, he said, "I could go get another can". He disappeared for a while and returned with another warm can. Adding it to the glass, the ice cream immediately melted and the whole mess was still not cold. The only other person visible was a high school girl, so I decided not to press the issue any further. It's wonderful that someone is giving these young folks work, but they could use some more experienced supervision. read more

GREAT ice cream options, super quick service and friendly staff. Would recommend making the stop for a sweet treat. We ordered the Cake Batter and Fly Fishing Fudge. YUM! Single scoop is big and plenty. read more

Camden Cone - Outside the Camden Cone - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Camden, Maine

The ice cream was decent, and pricy, I think because of the location. My review is colored by the hurtful customer service though. My dad went to order and has trouble with his vision so he asked the ice cream server what the flavors were, I get it can be annoying to recite this but the person refused to help my dad so he had to call me to come and help him. I wish the staffer was more responsive and understanding to those with disabilities. read more

Cute ice cream stand right downtown with many flavors so after walking around a bit on our first day in Camden we decided to walk up and end the day trying some local ice cream. Maybe we should have just skipped and drove back to our Airbnb for our supermarket blueberry ice cream in the freezer because both girls were on their phones most of the time and occasionally chatting with 2 boys hanging around outside the stand. The girls didn't pay any mind to us while we looked at the large menu or ask if we needed help. After a couple of minutes we decided on blueberry and strawberry in a waffle cone then placed our order with one of the girls. The 2 boys then left hanging out around the stand. While the other girl was still on her cell phone the whole time. When we wanted to pay it was like we disturbed her in some way and she didn't say anything other than the price. Not even a thank you. No smile. We paid turned around she went back to her cell and we walked to the nearby seating to enjoy our over priced, overly sweet, and mediocre ice cream. The next day we tried the other ice cream stand in town - hint hint - it has the word "Ducks" in its name and it's by a lovely foot bridge over the towns stream - what a huge difference with excellent service with a smile by a single girl running the stand alone and excellent ice cream at substantially less cost. Word of advice go there my friends! read more

Summer ice cream craving perfection. Fantastic quality hard ice cream. Excellent flavor selection. Salted Carmel could become an addiction. Clean, organized, and friendly operation in COVID times to boot! read more

This was some of the best ice cream I've ever had in my life. Four months after my family's trip and we're still talking about it from time to time. There's a variety of flavors to choose from so there's something for everyone. read more

YUMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!! This tiny ice cream shack serves up big flavors and HUGE portions! read more

Great little ice cream shop in downtown Camden. Really small with just a place to order. Really nice, personable staff. Solid ice cream. Huge menu with great flavors, shakes, sundaes, etc. Been coming here my entire life in the summers when visiting Camden. Other shops have changed, but not this one. The staff is awesome, talkative, welcoming, nice. A big plus. read more

Camden Cone is located in downtown Camden near the harbor. While there is a long line, there are lots of flavors of ice cream to choose from! I particularly enjoyed my mint Oreo ice cream, and it was very creamy! It is the place to stop in the evening. read more

Super tasty and creamy and a sugar free flavor! Thanks for offering this option. We're always looking for sugar free treats when we travel and it's rare that we find ice cream. read more

Camden come was ok except.. 1. The worker charged us for cones but we ordered cups so we paid more than we ordered 2. They never have lemon sorbet that they promise us 3. ice cream is mediocre Ok that was it Thanks bye read more

homemade, creamy ice cream, a big variety of flavors and toppings, and the great New England "walk up to the window and order" experience. The M&M ice cream is really good, as are the raspberry chip and mocha chip. You can also get your cones and stroll down to the harbor...very pleasant! read more

We have been trying out different ice cream places across Maine on our road trip and this place was by far our favorite! We stumbled upon it while walking around Camden - didn't have any intentions of getting ice cream but it smelled so good we couldn't resist. This was by far our favorite ice cream place on our trip!! We had the coconut with toasted coconut pieces in it, and a raspberry chocolate cup swirl of some sort - both in a waffle cone. Both flavors were super delicious and were amazing! We had researched other ice cream places in different cities/towns in Maine, and it's funny how the one you find on accident turns out to be the best! read more

Good creamy ice cream that can be served in a cone or bowl. Lots of selections and a really friendly staff which im starting find was rare in this area of ME. Loved the eagles nest or eagles feathers ice cream. delicious. read more

This place is scattered with lies. They ran out of blueberry ice cream then I switched to vanilla and they jacked up the price 1 dollar. I say ahh hellll no! scoops of ice cream were smaller than my turds and I could've made a ball of belly button lint from my stomach bigger than their scoops of ice cream. only reason I gave them 2 stars not one is because small and overpriced ice cream did taste good. read more

They use the local round top ice cream. It was smooth and delicious. One weird thing, they don't give tastes. Every other ice cream shop gives tastes. This one does not. I wasn't sure about a flavor so I asked for a taste. They said no. Also the spoon was flimsy and blended too easily. read more

Save room for dessert whenever you eat in Camden to just drop by this really good ice cream shack.

Ginger Ice Cream! Perhaps the best single scoop I've ever had. Friendly Dad and son served me. Nice folks!

Meh. Long line. Many wrong orders. Staff of children. Not impressed. Ice cream was overly sweet and not creamy at all. Actually found ice pieces in the ice cream; either it was made improperly or not kept frozen properly. Either way, this doesn't compare to others in Maine. Skip it. read more

Camden Cone serves Round Top ice cream, which is great, but arguably not the absolute best, in the state of Maine (for that, go to Cote's in Brunswick!). Their Chocolate Almond is delicious but melts much too quickly. Blueberry ice cream (which they are quick to point out that Martha Stewart loves) is pretty good, but not the best. Still, strolling around Camden and its harbor on a nice summer day while licking an ice cream cone is pretty wonderful, and Camden Cone's offerings hold their own. read more

Love this place! My go to vacation ice cream spot -- recommended by locals. Friendly, easy, and full of plenty of choices.

Mainers know their ice cream, and Camden Cone is no exception. The selection is always varied, including some good sugar-free options, and the hole-in-the wall look makes it all the more charming. As for the ice cream itself, it is creamy, flavorful, and generously piled onto the cone---Maine-style. A must-visit for anyone wandering Camden on a summer day! read more
