In this beautiful coastal area blessed with a lot of great homemade ice cream options, and visited by tons of summer vacationers, Dunne's is the best ice cream place. Pleasant service, big portions, lots of flavors and a great view of Nubble Lighthouse. read more

Just like the old Brown's!... Plenty of parking, benches to sit on to view Nubble Light... My DH and I both ordered a 2 scoop cone mine was half the size of his... I brought it back to Elizabeth and she said she would add to mine as it was noticeably smaller then his for the same price... I'm glad she did or I would have been upset... All in all it was very good ice cream!... It's definitely a place to visit in York, ME read more

Not exaggerating, best cookie dough ice cream I've ever had. So. Much. Cookie. Dough!! And that's saying a lot because I get cookie dough ice cream in almost every town we go to!! You have to go here if you're in York. My husband and I got the large (2 scoop) and it was more than enough for the both of us. Our friends got the blackberry and salted Carmel and they liked theirs as well!! read more

Dunne's Ice Cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - York, Maine

Ice cream is good, not great and a bit overpriced. New Store is very nice. Big complaint is that they don't have napkins outside anywhere for patrons. The only place you can get napkins is at the windows which can be very difficult with the long lines. I think they could make more napkins available to parents who just paid $3.75 ^ and their kids are eating sloppy cones. read more

The best!! Enjoy a cone or cup of the best ice cream around. There is plenty of parking and bathrooms on the premise. Take a very short ride over to the Nubble Lighthouse and enjoy both the ice cream and the view of the light house. read more

Dunne's Ice Cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - York, Maine

On our way to the Nubble Lighthouse, we noticed an ice cream establishment with lines down the sidewalk. After our lighthouse visit we decided to find out what all the commotion was about. There were 6 plus windows all with long lines. They had a long list of flavors to choose from and multiple serving options. I settled on black raspberry explosion. It was raspberry ice cream with raspberry swirls and raspberry filled chocolate truffles. I thought I'd died and gone to heaven. The smooth creamy texture was interrupted only by the truffles which melted in your mouth. I'd not had anything like it but will search endlessly until the next time I may be in York, Maine. read more

While they will never be Browns, the black raspberry was amazing! Very rich and creamy. The vanilla based ice creams need some work-- whoopi pie was basically all vanilla and the Oreo had a weird taste. I think from not true Oreos but an off brand Oreo. Can never get enough ice cream at the beach! read more

Was disappointed when I heard Browns was closed. But great to know only the building and name have changed but the ice cream is still the best. read more

Dunne's Ice Cream - Great ice cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - York, Maine

Update I got charged 2.50 by the ATM the Dunnes owns and 3.00 from my bank so those 2-ice creams cost 15.50

Had my first ice cream of the season today. Asked for a flavor I always get there and was told by server that they didn't have but he seemed oblivious to our disappointment. Ordered a kiddie size and was charged $4.50! Can't imagine a family with more than one kid wanting to visit. GREED and more greed, because it was a minuscule sized cone for $4.50. That was the last ice cream I'll be getting at Dunnes. There are many ice cream shops around so we will be fine getting somewhere else and driving or walking from home to the Nubble. Nice place to visit. The Nubble that is. Not Dunnes. read more

This is a lovely ice cream Emporium located not far from Nubble Light in York. The ice cream is, I suspect, not made on the premises, but it's of very high calibre. There is a list of flavours as long as your arm and the service is swift and friendly. The size of the servings is gargantuan--none of us managed to finish what we ordered--so what seems like somewhat higher-than-normal pricing turns out to be justifiable. Since some flavours are not immediately identifiable based on their names, tastes are cheerfully offered along with explanations of the offerings. read more

I am in love. I had one scoop of whoopie pie and one scoop of Maine tracks with chocolate jimmies, and WOW! So good. I wish I lived closer! I'd come back more often! read more

Worth the drive for the view and ice cream. Lots of flavors that combine different ingredients. Ask what the flavors are - from planet earth to moose tracks and other flavored names this is a good place for unique flavors. A bit of a wait but the view helps and the college students are pleasant. read more

SUNDAES THE SIZE OF YOUR FACE!! No, really! Dunne's Ice Cream is delicious, creamy, FILLED with add ins, and so worth the scary looking lines that move really quickly. Unlike other ice creams, Dunne's cookie dough (my go-to) has enormous chunks of cookie dough in it, not those weird frozen little balls that come in other brands. Cash only, but there's an ATM on site. Gorgeous view of the water and the Nubble Light- grab a lobster roll at Fox's but skip their ice cream and go up the hill to Dunne's for an after dinner treat! read more

Great location. Pretty good icecream but no chocolate peanut butter... I dont know if we are spoiled with the icecream in the Massachusetts nh area but the flavors were limited and none were 5 stars unfortunately. read more

I miss Browns but have to say Dunne's doesn't miss a beat. Just wish people understood how to form and stay in a line.

First time here. Intense creamy flavors, place was packed, but no wait. Cash only. Had the black raspberry explosion. Crazy good

There was only one Brown's. After they changed hands some two decades ago, that was basically it for me. My family had a camp on Cycad Ave when I was a kid, and we used to walk over to Spring St. and then a shortcut through some bushes over to Brown's. Homemade ice cream at it's best. My faves were chocolate and also blueberry. We no longer have the camp, sold it decades ago, but I still go up there during summer as well as my other family members. The chocolate ice cream tastes like it's out of a carton. The blueberry ice cream is basically vanilla ice cream with specks of blueberries in it. Brown's used to be REAL blueberry ice cream. I guess it's true what they say, "You can't go home again," but too bad the new owners didn't carry over the same Brown's traditional flavors and methods. read more

Disclaimer: There's a special place in h*ll for places that change the name of lifelong institutions. RIP Brown's. Anyways, ice cream is great and it's clean and overlooks Nubble Light so I'll be going here for many years to come. read more

The ice cream is really good with a large selection of flavors. The Maine wild blueberry ice cream alone is worth the trip. They have a really nicely maintained outdoor seating area and clean restrooms, a water fountain and a good sized parking lot. It's hard to ask for more. read more

Nice, clean. Redone ice cream shop with a view... pretty building with updated bathrooms... Outdoor seating with a view of the lighthouse... ice cream is good with a bunch of flavors... also offer frozen yogurt and soft serve read more

Yummy, yummy, yummy!! Best cookie dough ice cream. unbelievably soft cookie dough scoops (not small frozen bits). Best I've had and I've had a lot!! read more

Yum, banana ice cream. The only thing that would make it better would be some chocolate chips. ... please! Btw, a small cone is huge!

Excellent ginger ice cream. They have some tables with umbrellas and the ladies room is clean. read more

Just opened! So clean and lots of staff working! The view of the Nubble is wonderful! We will be back!

Their blueberry ice cream is a must! I recommend going to this popular ice cream place and head to the Nubble Lighthouse right after. You can actually catch a nice glimpse of the Lighthouse from here! read more

Found this awesome place when we were looking for ice cream near the lighthouse. We were a group of 8 with 4 kids. Kids were undecided on what they want and had to try a few samples before ordering their choice. In spite of the large lines, the employees served all the requested samples with a smile. Portions are generous and all the ice creams we ordered tasted delicious. Outdoor seating area close the sea is very nice. This is definitely one of our favorite ice cream shops anywhere. read more

Try the wicked good banana bucket and substitute the chocolate sauce with strawberries. Wild Maine blueberry, orange pineapple and checkerberry as the flavors. Have had nothing but great service from the kids behind the counter for 25 years. I look forward to visit whenever I get a chance. read more

Had ice cream on friday theres something wrong with texture of ice cream.its not supposed to taste not ice cystalsfrom my fridgearator freezer . Chocolate .black rasberry. vinalla and all tasted nasty ..go to browns. read more

Not as good as Browns was.... but still good. Reasonable price for tourist area. 5.75lg 4.75 for small. Tons of flavors. Maine blueberry is very good. read more

It's definitely NOT Brown's. I have gone to Dunne's 3 times and everytime my ice cream is freezer burnt. The cookie dough, is not what it used to be. It's basically vanilla ice cream with not a trace of dough in it. Tonight I ordered the Turtle and was given a description of vanilla ice cream with caramel and chocolate chips and it was plain vanilla ice cream with maybe a chocolate chip hidden somewhere. It was freezer burnt along with the chocolate walnut my son ordered. I was so fusurated I threw my entire cone in the trash after taking one lick. Done with Dunnes. You are paying for a view and a new building. The ice cream is NOT the same. I miss and loved Brown's. read more

This ice cream was delicious. Tasted very high quality and had TONS of flavors. Absolutely would recommend going. Only negative is that the sizes are HUGE. I got a kid size and it was still too much. read more

Not bad, but not Brown's. Brown's was an ice cream place a couple of doors down the street, and we had been going there for years. But I see that Brown's is now vacant and has a for sale sign out front (apparently around $1.5 million, in case anyone's interested). It seems Dunne's is trying to copy Brown's in every respect. The portions, however, seem smaller even though the prices are somewhat higher, which I guess is to be expected because they probably have higher expenses (new building, etc.). Overall, sadly, I feel they missed the mark, although I give them credit for a valiant try. Ice cream is ok, but sorry, Brown's was better. read more

Ice. Cream. Coma. Definitely get a small! I asked if I could do two flavors and they were awesome and I got the Maine whoopie pie and tornado flavors in a waffle cone. Probably couldn't walk after because I couldn't stop eating it! Cash only as well! read more

The new facility was very nice. Ice cream portions were VERY SMALL! ! Number of flavors advertised online were not there, There was only one sugar-free flavor available also. I did like the variety of topping options. Miss Brown's will not be back. White's, Kimballs and Memories are superior! read more

I had Sam as my server, he was wonderful! Very fast service, great looking ice cream, and one of the nicest kids I've had there! What a good looking kid too like the rest of everyone who works there! 10/10 would eat lobster again read more

Really good ice cream! Lots of different flavors. If the owners read this, please describe your ice cream under the name. We stood there looking at the list of ice creams, such as Planet Earth and Danish Cream , Frozen Pudding and not knowing what flavors they are. I felt bad that everyone kept asking the servers what was in the ice creams. They run big so be careful of your size selection. Got the Danish Cream and it was a rich vanilla. Very good ice cream. If your big on ice cream, don't miss this place. read more

Was a little disappointed to see that the ice cream place I remembered (Browns) had changed entirely. However the ice cream was as good as I remembered. I had coffee which was delicious. My husband had butter pecan and my son had blueberry. Everything was delicious. No complaints. Will definitely be back on our next trip. read more

There a lot of people on here complaining about customer service, and they must be self-centered, oblivious and entitled; It's a roadside Ice Cream stand. And, after ordering from here half a dozen times, I've experienced nothing but amiable encounters from the employees. I can recommend the Chocolate Mousse Oreo and the Cookie Dough ice cream particularly, both were just phenomenal, and pretty cheap considering the portions and quality. read more

Ice cream is good but the baby size the small size and the medium size are all the same size
