The BEST peanut butter twirl ice cream I've had. Completely packed with peanut butter unlike other places. I've tried other flavors, but this is my new go-to. This cash-only creamery offers quite a few hard ice cream flavor choices as well as milk shakes, soft serve, ices, slushies, and more. There is outdoor seating available, but there is no restroom. Service was quick and friendly, as always. In fact, we ended up at Jake's because the first place we went to took 5 minutes to serve a single customer and with 3 parties ahead of us, we would rather drive 10 minutes away than wait 15 or more. read more

I grew up coming here for ice cream and still find myself stopping by while in NJ visiting family. The ice cream has always been good and I recommend checking them out! read more

Located on rt 33 going east towards Freehold, this staff here is very polite and helpful. They do accept card payments as well. Have many different flavors and have really good quality ice cream. The scoop size are big. Love they have Italian ice, soft serve and hard ice cream and milkshakes and much more. The picnic seating area is a great addition and plenty parking space. Highly recommend them in and around the area. read more

A classic spot in Millstone area. My go to for custard-like ice cream :) 4 stars cause seating area could be updated but great for a quick sweet treat Ps. GET THE TWIST read more

I've tried it here a few times and honestly I think it's just okay. There is always a line so don't come here in a rush. I just think it's so overpriced no matter what you get. If it was the best ice cream I've ever had i could rationalize the price but it misses the mark for me. read more

The ice cream is fantabulous! They list all of their flavors, options, and toppings. But they'll basically make you whatever you want! A medium sized sundae is certainly filling. The staff is quick and friendly. And there is a nice area behind the building to sit outside. FYI...it's cash only. read more

Jake's Cree-Mee Freeze - 10/10 - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Manalapan, New Jersey

Super delicious ice cream cones. However it does melt very quickly. My bf and I got 2 cones and it came out to 10 dollars. Decent price and plenty of parking. read more

I have been here many times over the years. Nice place for super delicious and creamy ice cream! Good pit stop in the middle of route 33 and not far from the mini golf place on the west bound side, perfect place to stop after mini golf. While they do have hard ice cream, you're more likely to see more soft serve flavors here. Average prices. Cash only but there is an ATM on site. Nice seating area in the back and picnic tables up front, but currently blocked off due to COVID. Also, due to the current state, they are not offering cones (ice cream served in cups only) and all items will be placed in a bag at the pick up window. read more

I have driven past this place for the past 7 years since moving in the area on Rt 33 and have always wondered what it was all about. Yesterday was my little one's birthday and since we already had a big celebration for her over the weekend, I just wanted to lay low and get her some ice cream... I was pleasantly surprised to see that this place had such high stars on Yelp, so this was the perfect opportunity to check it out. Not many people there on a Wed evening, of course, so we were in and out of the line. I love a good vanilla soft serve, so I decided on that with Fruity Pebbles! I was definitely pleasing the kid in me. LO got a strawberry cone.. My cone was really tasty. I don't know if it's hard to get a vanilla soft serve wrong, but... What I loved MOST about the experience was the fact that it was a beautiful sunny day and they have a really clean sitting area on the side with a view of the horse farm next door.. we didn't see any of them grazing, but it was still a wonderful view--really serene. I can't wait to come back and try the other flavors on the menu. read more

Jake's Cree-Mee Freeze - I think she likes her strawberry cone. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Manalapan, New Jersey

MY GOD, TEACH YOUR EMPLOYEES ABOUT CROSS-CONTAMINATION AND FOOD HANDLING AND FOOD ALLERGIES. Phenomenal ice cream. Always clean. A must when we're in the area. BUT, I ordered a chocolate banana shake. What I received was a chocolate peanut butter shake. Granted, it's tasty. As is the norm. But if it were my niece who sipped it first? You'd have an ambulance at your doorstep. No exaggeration. People die from accidental exposures to allergens, ladies. And when told of the error, the correct response is "I'm sorry", first. And THEN, offer to make another. Pretty simple. The response is NEVER to cop an attitude, question the customer being "sure" and simply just offer to make another. Ignoring the potential dangers. We both know the lovely boy in the other window eating and sharing his ice cream with you was the reason you were both distracted. It's an honest mistake. But for some people, it could be a lethal one. Otherwise, hard and soft serve ice cream consistently delicious with fair pricing. Always worth the stop. read more

Jake's is a nice local ice cream shop. Nothing like eating ice cream in an open environment. Great place for a post-Dinner family outing for dessert. read more

Best soft ice cream in the county. Employees are great peiple and offer excellent service. No better ice cream any where else.

I'm always passing by on my way home and finally got a chance to try. I opted out of my normal order and got a pumpkin hard ice cream in a cone. So good and I'm glad I tried it! There is no indoor seating but there is an area to the side outside. It would've been nicer without the highway next to it but the view is mostly farmlike and serene. About $11 for two kid cones and a shake. read more

Great place! Cash only so be prepared but offers some great options for toppings, soft serve and hard ice cream. My husband got the chocolate soft serve with a butterscotch dip and I chose a chocolate vanilla swirl with peanut brittle. Very creative and super tasty. Word of the wise, don't miss it on the right hand side or you'll have to pull multiple u turns to get back! read more

Stop by this ice cream joint right off route 33 for some frozen treats! Jake serves them up right, but for cash only. It's very close to another ice cream joint that you pass first, but by the time you see Jake's, the sweet treat is already on your mind and you're bound to pull in. Parking is directly off the major road, so be careful when you enter. Seating at tables with umbrellas is ample in the back and to the right of the restaurant. I'd steer clear of any fat free varieties of their soft serve ("soft yogurt"), because they tend to taste a little artificial. You can't beat the orange and vanilla soft serve twist. They also offer hard ice creams, italian ices, sundaes, and banana splits. Delicious on a hot summer day or night, and doesn't beat the bank. read more

Jake's Cree-Mee Freeze - Vanilla soft serve waffle cone featuring rainbow sprinkles - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Manalapan, New Jersey

Great local ice cream place. Delicious soft serve. They even make ice cream cakes, but haven't tried them yet.

Beautiful place to grab ice cream and sit by the horse farm. Service is great!! Must try

Ice cream is very good but I rated them low because they refuse to sell hard ice cream by the quart. Not sure why that is but I ended up driving to their competitor up the road which has equally great ice cream but more accommodating. Hopefully the owners will see this and reconsider. read more

5 stars for the quick, friendly, and delicious soft serve ice cream! Jake's is right by my uncle's house in Manalapan. It's pretty rural over there, so you wouldn't think there's any good ice cream places if you're from the big city BUT behold! Jake's Cree-Mee Freeze! They serve sorbet, soft serve & regular ice cream. I tried the soft serve and the regular & both were delicious. I opted for a twist soft serve (chocolate & vanilla) with chocolate crunches on top + hot fudge - what a GREAT combo on a hot day! They don't have any seating inside, but they have a fenced area to sit with umbrellas. I'll definitely come back and would suggest this spot to everyone for your sweet taste buds. read more

Yummm!! Always good ice cream here! Plenty parking lot and worker are friendly. Is our 1st choice when it comes to go and get ice cream .

Delicious soft serve ! We both had a medium chocolate with sprinkles and it was a really large portion. Really good ice cream! I will definitely return for more. read more

Long time customer and big supporter of Jakes. Lately have noticed inconsistencies in portion serving sizes. Not sure if it is ownership directive or just employee judgement. Ordered 2 scoops of hard ice cream on a sugar cone. When I received my cone there were two golf ball sized scoops. I questioned the server and she said this is the way it is. Certainly not the way to make an ice cream cone and then charging a premium price. read more

I loved the outdoor seating area. It faces a horse range and sunset. They don't accept credit cards, cash only. They had an atm available. Importantly their icecream was good too! Nice stop after a day full of activities read more

My favorite local ice cream joint! My favorite is the orange vanilla twist. Nothing like bringing the family for an ice cream in summer

Too expensive. Olivias is down the road and much cheaper. This place is ok but why so much more $$??

Always my summer treat, giant brownie sundae included. I just wish they put more into the outdoor area, like a space where you can stand when its raining and not have to go in your car, like Magnifico's read more

I would suggest that jakes, puts a sign up that restricts anyone without a mask being served. It will be safer for the patrons as well as the workers. They have signs regarding social distancing, but no reference to masks, Last night we were there and there was a 20 something couple not wearing masks and standing in line. If a sign is posted and they do not get served it would much safer for the guests. read more

Great place. Made what I wanted. They have the best strawberry topping around. Love to stop here when in the area or on a special run. Workers are kind and helpful. Summer months it's crowded. read more

The "original" location (next to the produce stand) is under new management - and is no where near the same quality. Be sure to pass that one by and go the few extra miles to the newer location! I was glad to find the same great ice cream and friendly service! read more

Best soft serve. Reasonable prices bigger portion than others. There's an area in back on side with tables to enjoy your treats however it does get buggy out there as there are trees and fields. I'll still go read more

Nice little family spot. Great choice selection. Only wish the prices would not be so steep

Better than other places. Would not go anywhere else. Wish they can stay open until middle of November. They have the best Ice Cream cakes. Just once like to have one for my birthday. Soft serve is very good you can get a twist or not. They also serve Hard ice cream Name any topping they have it. Give the kids a tip they are working their way through college. My favorite is Vanilla with Peanut Butter topping and black sprinkles. CASH ONLY. read more
