As soon as you walk into Fresh Tiki Bar, you are greeted with fun, pink, tiki themed decor (perfect for Instagram or Yelp pics). There's seating inside for small groups or solo eating. They have a wide variety of flavors & options. My favorite flavor is the premium flavor- crazy caramel pretzel. I usually get it on a cone or in a pint to go but I've been dying to try one of their sundaes or ice cream sandwiches. The staff is super friendly & will give you recommendations as needed. Fresh Tiki Bar is definitely worth trying if you're in the area!

Fresh Tiki Bar is a unique spot to grab an ice cream in Somerville. I ordered an ice cream cookie…read moresundae, which comes with a premium ice cream flavor. I got the Dutch chocolate ice cream, which was really rich in flavor . The cookie was also soft and warm, deliciously complimenting the ice cream. I did find the presentation of the sundae to be a bit gimmicky since it was basically deconstructed. At around $13, this treat was definitely overpriced. However, for my friends who just got a cone, they received a big portion at a pretty reasonable price. I'd opt for something simpler next time. The interior is tight, but I love the vibrant pink decor everywhere. It gets a bit busy in here, so there may be a small wait for your ice cream.

The soft serve- a classic with so many toppings. The hard serve and Italian ice is all homemade and the multiple flavors come from generations of family recipes. I can never decide between these, or the Slushie 'gelatos', or perfectly thick Milkshakes made with fresh ingredients. Don't forget to grab some cookie wafer ice cream sandwiches to go for home, and for their winter off season! You can tell how good the ice cream is here, because usually there's a line down the sidewalk of people waiting! If it's not too busy, I'm always glad to stand and chat a bit with Rachel and catch up on the latest goings on in town, just like I did with Harry who ran the shop my entire childhood. We're so appreciative that this family has kept such a nice tradition going for so long, I hope my kids can share these memories in the future someday!

This ice cream shop is always popping when I am going down 202. Seriously there is always a line…read more So today, I decided to check out if it was good or just hype. Not only do they offer hard ice cream flavors (a pretty big selection) but they offer soft serve. This place also has frozen yogurt that they can make from their multiple soft serve flavors. I really like how they accept Venmo as well. I also like how they had a bench you could sit at. Not sure how many people actually sit outside this place to eat ice cream but the gesture felt welcoming. I ended up getting the birthday cake and the chocolate hazelnut in a cup. They gave a pretty big quantity which I was very happy about. However, I did feel like the flavors were basic. I didn't feel like it came straight from the farm or whatever. I was definitely slightly disappointed. Maybe I'll give their frozen yogurt a try next time and it won't disappoint.

We had our dinner at one of the outside picnic tables, and then came back to the window for ice cream! They have soft serve, regular ice cream, plus non-dairy options as well. Service was a touch slow but it was worth the wait. Can't wait to come back.

The cinnamon bun was honestly better than Cinnabon, the brownies were amazing, and the donuts were flavorful and fresh. I was so impressed that I returned the very next day. Unfortunately, Saturday's visit was completely different. The cinnamon bun was misshapen, dry, and lacked the flavor I enjoyed the day before. Even the display items looked unappealing, and the service was subpar. The inconsistency was disappointing, especially after such a great experience on Friday. Because of the poor service and inconsistent quality, I have to give a hard 2 stars. The employees would benefit from better training, and the product quality needs to be more consistent. I hope the owner or manager sees this review and takes it as constructive feedback from a loyal customer who genuinely wants the business to do well. I will return again, hoping to experience the same quality and service I received on Friday.

The best ice cream in the area!…read more A bunch if creative flavors, abd generous portion size. We absolutely loved the oreo cheesecake flavor and the cookie curveball. Another fan favorite was the tipsy banana, it tastes like a banana foster! They even have their own take on the viral dot cakes. The outdoor seating opportunities are adorable, perfect place to get together with friends or bring the family. Can't wait to come again!

A Sweet Surprise in Dunellen!…read more After living in the area for over 20 years, I finally stopped by this local ice cream shop--and I'm honestly blown away. I've visited twice now and each time has been better than the last. The shop is under new ownership, and Mike (the new owner) is awesome. Super friendly, easy to talk to, and clearly passionate about making this place special. You can feel the good vibes as soon as you walk in. I've never really been into Italian ice, but this place completely changed my mind. The flavors are bold and refreshing--Cappuccino and Mudslide are my personal favorites. Rich, smooth, and packed with flavor. And here's the cherry on top: they welcome your furry friends and even offer a complimentary pup cup to go. Both my dogs were very happy--and let's be honest, that made me even happier. I was too busy enjoying the Italian ice to snap a photo of it (it was that good), but I did grab a pic of the pup cups--because happy dogs deserve the spotlight too! If you're in or around Dunellen, do yourself a favor and check this place out. Great treats, great people, and a super welcoming atmosphere. I'll definitely be back!

As a connoisseur of fine ice creams, I recently indulged in the Rum & Raisin flavor, a personal…read morefavorite. The experience was nothing short of impressive. The rich, creamy texture combined with the robust flavor of rum and the sweet, chewy raisins created a delightful symphony of taste and texture. My companion opted for a strawberry ice cream shake. While it was well-prepared, the flavor didn't quite resonate with me, as strawberry isn't my preferred choice. However, for those who enjoy a classic strawberry shake, it would likely be a satisfying option. I am eager to return for another serving of the Rum & Raisin ice cream. Next time, I plan to enhance the experience by adding a sprinkle of walnuts or hazelnuts, introducing a delightful crunch that would complement the smooth, rich base. Great service and they have few outdoor benches as well to enjoy your ice cream.

Best soft serve I have ever had!!!…read more Honestly... I can't say enough good things about this place. To say I was pleasantly surprised I'd an understatement. I got a soft serve swirl with cookie dough bites and it was delicious. The ice cream is perfectly creamy, and the vanilla had an almost marshmallow-y taste to it. It also sort of reminded me of the cream inside an Oreo. Perfectly balanced between creamy and cold- it didn't taste watered down or too "Icy". My mom and my 16 month old also agreed. (Ok, my mom agreed. My son was a fan but he doesn't quite understand just how good it was yet.) My son didn't finish his, so we brought it back with us to upstate NY. Yes, it was good enough to save in the freezer at our hotel and then to shlep back home so I could enjoy one more time. And also so my husband could try it since I couldn't stop raving about it. Also worth noting- I'm very impressed at their variety. They have lots of soft serve and hard ice cream flavors. I hope I have another work trip that brings me back, cause I will be dreaming of this ice cream until then!
