Found this gem, a little piece of history actually, while on vacation. It was about to rain, kids were bored and hungry, we just needed a little friendly comfort. And that we found at Doumar's. Reminiscent of the 50's drive in restaurant, we parked under an awning, confused on what to do. A helpful, smiling young lady... I only wish she was on roller skates... came right over to us in between the 12 other cars she was serving. After the indoctrination, we ordered and took her suggestions. The food came quickly, was delicious and the entire experience was exactly what we needed to regroup for the rest of the day. Ice cream after the meal... like icing on my cake, made for an even better experience. The positive interaction between that one employee and us made all the difference. I tipped well, if you go.. you should too. And if the owners are reading this... keep doing what your doing, not enough business left that seem to care enough about the customer and the employees. read more

Hours are not correct. They say open until 12am on Sunday. They are not they closed at 10

Said open until 9. It was 7:51 and the staff closed and were walking away eating ice cream and taking selfies in front of the storefront. We walked over a mile. read more

Please adjust your hours online. It said opened and was very disappointing walking up and seeing it was closed in early May.

We were craving ice cream and voila, we came upon Dumsers! We ordered a strawberry cone, banana cone and cherry soda. All were delicious! The cherry soda isn't overly sweet, so it pairs well with the vanilla ice cream. It was only about $12 for our cold treats so a great value! On our next visit we want to try a sundae, a dole whip and a root beer float! This is a place you can visit multiple times and get a different treat each time. read more

Ice cream was fantastic. Smooth and creamy. Service was great. Inside has been completely redone.

Eh, I'd rather visit king Kone on streetside. This location us on the boardwalk. Is there a line? Where does it start and end? Once you order where do you stand then, to get your cone? A mess. Plus it was hard to hear all the options the were advising when everyone is scream talking. My faughters waffle cone was cracked and ice cream started to run down the side. I mean for something like that you can never have enough napkins. And my 2 scoop, hand scooped ice cream was tilted and falling over when she handed it to me. 2 scoops already falling over? Come on. It's like they stuck the second scoop on the side of the first scoop, not the top like normal ice cream cone. Got me on that one. Hard to take pics with sticky hands. I'll pass. read more

Delicious ice cream! We always go out of our way to stop in at this location because it is so convenient. My kids love sitting outside at the picnic table to enjoy their ice cream. Can't wait for next year! read more

I came here on a Saturday afternoon since I was walking on the boardwalk. I ordered the orange twist soft serve ice cream cone. The portion was huge! You definitely get your money's worth. It melts fast so you have to eat fast. The soft serve ice cream was delicious and had pretty strong orange flavor. The staff were very friendly and fast. I would definitely come back if I'm ever in Ocean City. FYI - They do take credit cards. read more

Always delicious and smooth. A little pricey than I remembered but oh so good! My husband has been eating Dumser's deliciousness for years. You can never go wrong with the classics of Chocolate or Vanilla. This time i went for the Cherry dipped Vanilla. OMG!!! So good!! Good times and great memories! We will be back for more. read more

my favorite place to eat ice cream at 10:30 in the morning~~. I'm boring and usually get the vanilla and chocolate swirl with rainbow sprinkles but whenever I try a new flavor it is always so creamy and good! Decent price for the amount of ice cream you get. I paid $5 for a swirl in a waffle cone w/ sprinkles. Also love that they take cards because I somehow always forget to bring cash when I'm at the beach. read more

It was creamier than usual self serve but just okay. I found it weird that the girls behind the counter couldn't really speak English, and when I asked them if they would recommend the soft serve or the ice cream, they proceeded to explain what a self-serve for ice cream is. I did find that a little strange, since I've started to notice that all the girls working at the shops on the boardwalk were of similar Eastern Europe decent and were limited in their English comprehension. Meh, I tried the orange Creamsicle. To their credit, it was indeed creamy. But compared to the other ice creams I had on this trip, I don't think I'll be back for it. read more

Not sure if this is the exact location. But I went to 2 different boardwalk locations.. each one had different options for milkshakes.. was kinda upset when I was told to walk to there other location down the boardwalk, to find out they were closed... ended up with chocolate dipped chocolate icecream.. read more

Awesome service. Great vibe and seriously delicous ice cream. I got the oreo ice cream on a waffle cone and seriously wanted seconds! read more

We went here for lunch before our tour started at Seacrets Distillery and I had a burger and fries and my wife had the two piece fried chicken. I'll start with my burger...it was average at best and the small fries were more large than small,but very good.My wife said the fried chicken was very good,but I will warn,which wasn't stated till after we placed the order,the chicken takes about 20-30 minutes to cook.So,if you have a tour or something else you want to do,keep that in mind.We then went there after the tour and got a couple of sundaes.My wife got the butterscotch sundae and said it was one of the best she's ever had.I got the hot fudge with marshmallow topping and it was delicious as well.They have some of the smoothest and creamiest ice cream I have had. read more

there's really nothing that could go wrong here = delicious ice-cream on a hot summer day at the beach! dumsters ice-cream is one of the very few things i remember from the OC beach trips I've made as a child. they do have a couple of locations, but the one i revisited was the one on the boardwalk. the service was quick, the options were endless, and the ice-cream was just classic deliciousness. they have soft serve, hand scooped ice-cream, milk shakes -- whatever frozen treat you're feeling. you can top it with sprinkles, chocolate, etc. this location is an outdoor stand, by the way. my pick was the peanut butter chocolate chip and let me just tell you, that sht had generous amounts of peanut butter and as a PB-lover, I was ecstatic and felt like the same kid i was years ago --- as you can tell, I recommend :) read more

How in the world can you walk on the boardwalk and not get ice cream at Dumsers? I certainly can't and certainly didn't during an evening stroll. This location is one of several and, although I resisted the previous stand, I caved and stopped at this one for a treat: a peanut butter cone with chocolate dip. Lord have mercy! It was like a frozen Reese's cup. The only thing holding back a fifth star was the service. If you're not aware, numerous boardwalk restaurants and businesses hire foreigners to work during the summer, some of which are English-challenged. That's not the issue. Rather, it was the outright attitude and non-verbal communication (sighing, eye rolling) the Russian girl gave me when I told her I wanted a waffle cone instead of cake cone prior to her scooping the ice cream. Even the guy standing beside me chuckled and went "Wow!" At that point I thought about waiting until right before she handed me the cone and saying, "Actually, I changed my mind. I do want the cake cone instead," just to see what would happen, but then decided against it. I don't need the Red Mafia on my ass. read more

Amazing ice cream on a hot summer day! I was in between this place and Kohr's and I'm happy with my choice. I'm someone who always gets cookie dough and I wasn't disappointed. I judge my cookie dough by how loaded the ice cream is (because plain vanilla with one cookie dough chunk is lame). My cone was so full of chocolate chips and cookie dough, I was in heaven!! I'd recommend getting it in a cup if it's super hot though because it will melt all over your hands. Will come back here for my ice cream needs next time I'm in OC! read more

Dumser's is an Institution on the boardwalk. They make the absolute best swirly soft serve orange creamsicle cone thingie I have ever tasted. In my life. The chocolateXvanilla swirly thingie is basically regular and the regular vanilla base is just regular but that orange stuff. Holy rusted metal. The best one is the one right near the restrooms slightly down the way from the part of the boardwalk where the rides are. It's in that just right spot for when you've walked from that faraway place you had to park and you're not sure you're gonna make it to the rides and you're about to give up all hope and become a waif and this ice cream will save you. Win. read more

Great ice-cream sundaes and shakes!! Totally kid friendly. The staff was very nice and accommodating. The only negative was that they cultivate a line - meaning they will have empty tables on the inside but not fill them. read more

This is the perfect place to get a bellyache with a smile. You can try to split a sundae, but inevitably will hover over it and eat it all yourself. The maple walnut sauce will add to the bellyache, and the resulting sugar high. So you'll be giggling while holding onto your tummy. We've been here at least 3x and will be back--even during the winter. read more

It's tradition for us to go to Dumsers Ice Cream. =) Its the best place for soft serve ice cream on the boardwalk. It serves the traditional vanilla, chocolate, orange with vanilla, orange, or the twist with chocolate and vanilla. BUT my favorite is their "hand-dipped" flavors ranging from strawberry, mint chocolate chip, peanut butter, raspberry, etc. Overall, if you have a craving for ice cream stop at Dumsers there's 2 locations on the boardwalk. read more

First time going and we went twice. The first visit was for a quick/early dinner. We both ordered a steak and cheese. It was pretty good, arrived quickly. The raspberry tea was also good. The second time was for sundaes. Very large serving (too much, really), but delicious. Service was attentive both visits. read more

Two of us had the soft serve one chocolate one vanilla it was very good one of us had sprinkles the other one had the hot chocolate shell dip that was also good . My daughter and wife at the peanut butter fudge ice cream that was scooped it was very icy and tasted freezer burned I would not recommend that we were at the location next to Paradise Café on Philadelphia Avenue. Also agree with another reviewer that the people here barely understand English so don't question anything, what are your Soft serve and Move on ice cream for four people $20.. read more

We didn't go to this exact location even though it was across the street from the condo we were staying in, but rather we went to the boardwalk location near the Jolly Roger amusement park. I love soft serve ice cream and the ice cream from Dumser's had to be the best I have ever tasted. I wish they had locations in OC NJ, because I was only in Maryland for work and it's too far of a drive to come back for a personal trip. My boss recommended it (specifically the store on Philadelphia ave because of its convenient location) and we were initially turned off because we thought he had said "dumpster's," but I'm really glad we tried it. Seriously, when they can make vanilla soft serve taste that amazing, they'll be in business for 7 more decades. The staff we encountered were really nice and the boardwalk location has a sheltered place to sit out of the sun and away from the feathery scavengers. The brand has I believe 7 locations around OCMD and I would be thrilled to death if they would expand even farther. read more

We had a large party with a few crazy kids and they got everything right and ice cream was delicious.

Flavorful, creamy and totally hits the spot! Better than carvel!

Some of the best ice cream I've ever had! The place is really cute inside too and it's really close the the Pier, so grab some ice cream here while you're on your way! The serving sizes are very generous too. read more

Best ice place on the boardwalk, ice cream is soft and very creamy. Do yourself a favor and try this place.
