Yummy!! Great homemade ice cream. Friendly service. Definitely worth a try if you're in the area.

Funny enough my first time trying Ice Cream Monster was in the middle of winter with snow on the ground. I brought my niece and boyfriend because I'd been wanting to try it and couldn't wait until the summer. The parlor was a lot smaller than it looked on advertisements. It had a colorfully contained chaotic feel, perfect for a "laboratory" atmosphere. I can imagine it would feel crowded in the busier months. The attendant was very lackluster and didn't quite deliver the "mad scientist experience" advertised nor was she knowledgeable about the flavors or toppings BUT we made our own fun. With plenty of wild combinations to choose from my niece put together her own ice cream creation which she enjoyed to pieces. There weren't many sugar free options but you don't go to a place like this for sugar free options haha. Highly recommend for anyone looking to try some unique flavors. read more

I always wanted my ice cream to have eyeballs and now this is possible. Thanks, Ice Cream Monster! In all seriousness, this place is super fun inside and the kids get a kick out of the decor. Aliens and space stuff everywhere! They also got very creative with the ice cream names to add to the theme, which I appreciate. The ice cream quality is amazing so I highly recommend trying a few samples and filling your heart's desires! read more

Wow! What a lovely family oriented ice cream shop. All of the staff were incredibly friendly and super helpful. As soon as we walked in the door we were greeted so warmly and felt so welcomed. The place is decorated and super cute too. But most importantly the ice cream is great. We tried numerous flavors and all of them were very good. Our favorites were the Gruesome Graham and the White Pistachio! Sooo good and soo flavorful!!! Can't wait to come back!!!! read more

Ice Cream Monster - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Matawan, New Jersey

The ice cream and service was good but I think the overall experience is a bit hyped up. With the reviews you see on social media it makes it feel like the place has a big ambiance and is like you are transported to a monster like environment. Truth is it is a small ice cream shop selling monster dolls and toys. Good ice cream but expensive. We are a family of 6 and ice cream was roughly $10 a piece with 3 kids cups being purchased. read more

Unique ice cream parlor geared towards families. Nice selection of flavors and great service from the staff. Definitely a fun environment for everyone and kids would love the decor. The Ice cream has just the right amount of air into the mix giving it a very good con's and great mouth feel. Full flavor especially in the Mont Chocolate Chunk. A Must try! read more

This was a spot part of a large strip mall with some outdoor chairs available to sit at. There might have been a table or two inside, but not many. The service was friendly, and samples could be tasted. There were a ton of flavors to choose from along with various sundaes, floats, and shakes available. I do not believe the ice cream was homemade. I had a cup ($6+) of white chocolate raspberry and salted caramel pretzel. The scoops were very generous. The white chocolate raspberry consisted of white chocolate ice cream with a raspberry swirl and chocolate raspberry cups. This was my preferred of the two. There were plenty of raspberry cups and it paired nicely with the white chocolate ice cream. The salted caramel pretzel had vanilla ice cream with a caramel swirl and chocolate covered pretzels. This was tasty but could have incorporated more of a caramel flavor. The pretzels somehow remained crispy and were a nice added crisp to this ice cream. I also tried peanut butter Oreo and a brownie flavor I do not recall. The Oreo was very peanut buttery. I could have used a little more cookie flavor while the brownie flavor was too much of a dark chocolate flavor, but still not bad. Will I go back? Sure. read more

This place was AWESOME! Such cool flavors and monster sundae topping options. The staff was very friendly and patient.

Amazing shop! Can't say enough about it. Had the pleasure of attending the Halloween trunk or treat car show and it was a great day! So many beautiful cars and nice people came out for the event. But the true win here for me is the line of "WuTang" Killah Koffee. Love that I don't have to travel to Staten Island to get a fix! The owner is soooo nice and I did sample some of the different custom flavors he stocks in the shop. It's great!!! Can't wait to stop in with the kids this week and try some more stuff. read more

This recently opened ice cream shop has a great variety of flavors. It was super busy for a Saturday night. They allow you to sample their flavors as well, which is helpful when there are so many delicious flavors to choose from. I got the golden graham and loved it! I sampled the cereal and milk but opted for golden graham just because it's been my recent favorite this year. The owner was very nice and wanted to know if we had been there before or if it was our first time stopping by. He was very friendly and welcoming. read more

Very cute atmosphere for the little ones but also enjoyable for a sweet tooth of any age. The ice cream is jammed packed with flavor! I chose 2 scoops 1 coffee fudge and 1 salted caramel in a dark chocolate cone. For those who have dairy allergies they have vegan options in an entirely separate freezer. I did not try the vegan options as of yet but I plan to go back again. There is indoor and outdoor seating available. read more

The staff were the nicest people ever and they didnt get annoyed by me asking to try every vegan flavor :) VEGAN options review: Tasted every flavor of vegan options they have and most were coconut based which i didnt really like, i just tasted coconut in them and no other flavor. However, the chocolate fudge was really good and i couldnt taste the coconut in that and it was extremely creamy and honestly didn't melt for a really long time which was interesting. Also the fact that ANY FLAVOR can be made into a soft serve!!!! Yes please!!! so fun and addicting. Also they have SO many flavored cones and they are all different colors which makes such a fun and unique look! Definitely will return when they come out with new flavors, hopefully some that aren't coconut based. Also the area and the monster theme is so cute and fun inside the store, really makes everything pop! read more

Super fun and crazy place. I had no idea this place existed but apparently it's Instagram famous. I highly recommend if you're trying to find some amazing ice cream flavor combinations. It's also a great place to bring if you have any kids. They make a different monster sundaes and milkshakes. I got their pumpkin Oreo and their coffee and cream ice cream and they were both outstanding. Sometimes pumpkin flavored things can be overwhelming, but this has the perfect amount of pumpkin mixed with the Oreo. I'm always a sucker for coffee ice cream and this is the best I've had in a while. It tasted like an iced espresso with Oreos. Perfect amount of bitter to sweetness ratio. All the girls that were working there were so sweet. They explaining what some of their specialty items are, and how they got famous on Instagram. The inside is like you're in a comic book or a children's TV show about monsters. Definitely a fun place to bring any kids if you have any. read more

If you have kids, this is a great place to take them for ice cream especially if they love monsters. The theming of the shop to a monster lab is amazing and such a cute idea.

My family lives in Virginia, but we drive through New Jersey 4 times a year when we visit our relatives in upstate New York. The past 2 trips, we've stopped at Ice Cream Monster and my family is obsessed! Such a cute & creative concept, lots of monster creatures on the walls. My kids loved their ice creams (they got a brownie flavor ice cream) and my wife & I got soft serve, which was refreshing and yummy. The service was very friendly too, I spoke with two employees who happen to go to my Alma mater (they recognized my SU hat!) and they were quick when serving me and very friendly. Overall, a super creative concept and would highly recommend for kids or adults alike. read more

Service is outstanding matched with the best ice cream in the state‼‼ Thank you for coming to Old Bridge Twp TEN STARS‼

Love this place. Perfect if you want that Halloween vibe. The ice cream is very tasty and the workers are wonderful. 5 stars

Amazing service, the man helping us was so sweet and offered us many samples along with options. The second we walked in we were taken a back by the detailing of the atmosphere. It is a very fun place and the icecream was delicious. Such a variety of flavors, toppings, cakes, candy, and drinks. They even have monster themed cards to collect with every sundae purchase, eventually leading to a free sundae. Never had anything like it before and can't wait to be back! read more
