    Medium cappuccino crunch and coffee Oreo in a waffle cone- SO GOOD!
    Leesa J.

    So many ice cream flavors. Prices are very reasonable, and you get A LOT of ice cream. Seemed like the line starts getting really long after 6pm, but since they have 4 windows, it seems to move quickly. Good amount of seating outside- tables on the side of the building, and a few picnic tables on the other side. Parking can be challenging with all the coming and going, and it's a small lot. I appreciate that they have a rewards program, so if you plan on going regularly, be sure to "check-in"!

    The best ice cream in New Bedford. Located right on the waterfront. Day at the beach can only get better with a bit of ice cream. So many unique and amazing flavors to choose from. Everything from soft serve, sherbet, and even dairy free options. Extremely generous with the scoops, I always opt for the small cone as anything bigger would just be a waste. Sugar cones, waffle cones, choco tacos, warm waffles, you name it, they have it. Milkshakes, sundaes, and even root beer floats. Fair warning: summer is usually pretty busy, extremely long lines but they do move quick and it is 100% worth it. Tables / benches are available for outside seating.

    I saw this on Facebook. I went the next day. Apple Cider Donut ice cream sandwich I grabbed strawberry ice cream and a vanilla ice sandwich With the trip

    Ice cream nachos

    Had to come here after seeing the ice cream nachos on their instagram - soft serve ice cream, waffle chips, a sauce, and a topping. I had chocolate/ vanilla twist ice cream, caramel, and crushed heath bar. This is definitely sized for sharing, and was just really fun to eat. Definitely recommend!

    Steamed hotdogs with topping of choice. Strawberry cheesecake scoop in a cup with Oreo pieces. Vanilla Soft serve with strawberries on top.

    I love Dairymaid. The staff is always so pleasant and accommodating. Sometimes, mostly during peak times (weekends and evenings) the lines can be long, but they move things along pretty quickly. Their ice cream is delicious. I usually go for the strawberry cheesecake icecream in a waffle cone.... Never disappoints . I even branched out recently and tried their "steamed hot dog".... Let's just say I went back for seconds. I am so happy to have found this gem not far from home. Keep up the great work team!!

    Rocks on the side of the building. no sign that said don't sit there, so they did.

    Long lines, but went super quick. Good portion size and great prices. friendly staff. After we paid, she enthusiastically said "thank you so much, hope you all have a great night. nice to hear! Brought tables. Parking lot is tight. Wish the pineapple topping was fresh pineapples. We would totally go back if in the area.

    Dairy maid menu--soft serve is so so good!

    Delicious Ice Cream with lots of options just minutes away from the beach. The negative is parking is terrible and a lot of ghetto people.

    Found Helger's when we were on vacation for a week nearby. We went back every day during our stay…read more It was that good! There's plenty of parking and usually a long line, but don't despair, it moves quickly. The menu is massive with so many different types of cold treats, not just ice cream. You really can't go wrong. My absolute favorite combo though was the coffee and Vermont maple soft serve swirled together and topped with walnuts. First time having soft serve that wasn't just your basic vanilla and chocolate--it's a must!

    First time taking the family here while visiting home. We arrived just after opening (2pm). It…read morewasn't busy at first when we got there, but it quickly picked up right after we had put our order in. Service was good -- friendly staff and it didn't take long at all to receive our order. I got the Vermont Maple Soft Serve (small) and my son got Oreo on a Chocolate Sprinkle Cone (small). My daughter wanted the Mango Sorbet but they didn't have enough for a small cup. The girl that helped us offered the rest of the Mango combined with the Lemon Sorbet, which we happily took. My daughter was very happy with that accommodation, she was looking forward to the mango! There was plenty of outdoor seating under the tent just off to the side of the building as well as plenty of parking. Just watch for signage -- some parking spots are for the neighboring businesses. This establishment has been here for years and it's definitely a place we will come back to!
