I actually asked one of the gpt ai's and it suggested this one. It did not lead me wrong. Friendly service, small town charm. Delicious flavor. It's like a throwback to the 60s or the 80s. I'm not sure which but it's cute and friendly and has a great atmosphere. Did I mention the ice cream is delicious? This is probably the best ice cream I've had in New Jersey, which isn't seeing much cause I haven't been here long, so I haven't had much option for it, but it is still quite delicious.

It was a painful disaster, highly disappointing, and mean.

I live in Somers Point, so it's not too too far from me, but it's definitely a little bit of a drive for ice cream. Believe the hype. It's that amazing! I would describe it as crunchy cereal soft serve. You can pick something off their menu or make your own thing. I definitely recommend the Boardwalk - it's legit one of the best things I've ever had (and I've had a lot of ice cream). Their cute little outside patio is dog friendly and they have live music some nights. Super cute place... hope they never close!

I went back and politely explained the issue, expecting them to replace it with the same item I originally paid for. Instead, they handed me a new monkey bread with basically NO Nutella in it.

I appreciate that they attempted to fix the problem, but replacing a stale product with a microwaved version missing the main ingredient isn't exactly customer service. Very disappointed and definitely not worth the money.

Crazy Susan's Cookies - A Review by Susan and Jack Holender When we think of exceptional bakers, one name stands out: Crazy Susan. She is genuinely one of the most caring, authentic, and hardworking women we know. Crazy Susan's remarkable work ethic is matched only by her warm, kind personality. She brings fun, laughter, and joy to every customer interaction--because she doesn't just sell cookies; she shares love in every bite. The cookies themselves? Amazing. Delicious. Scrumptious.

Behind the scenes, Crazy Susan is supported by her devoted husband, Barry, her soulmate in life and business. Barry is a true gentleman--kind, welcoming, and as dedicated as Susan herself. Together, they embody partnership, love, and teamwork. Their outstanding staff is equally impressive. Tonia and Noreen, along with the rest of the dedicated team, are always friendly, attentive, and eager to serve. They make every visit feel special, ensuring that customers leave not only with the world's best cookies but also with a smile. The service is as warm and genuine as the treats themselves.
