So let's start off the review by saying I grew up in this town, and I have been a huge fan of it all of my life. Now I live in Florida, and I cannot find anywhere in the country that makes fish as good as Kool Kone! It's always fresh and cooked to perfection. Their prices are affordable, and the staff is always friendly. A must eat of Cape Cod from a world traveler! read more

Kool Kone - Fish & Chips - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Wareham, Massachusetts

The Seafood was so fresh and delicious. This a seasonal place from what the people in line were saying. We just moved to Wareham, MA and we're always looking for ideal locations. They also have a great selection of ice cream and frozen fruit drinks and all kinds of snacks for everyone. It is like a cottage place. You feel really comfortable inside to eat AC and you can also eat outside which is nice to have a couple of options. I got the 2 combo With whole belly clams, fried onion rings very thin sliced, and scallops so sweet and juicy. The counter help was so helpful and very Nice! read more

Kool Kone - Fried onions, scallops and clam bellies only a slice of lemon very stingy with the lemons - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Wareham, Massachusetts

I'm honestly still in shock after my experience tonight. I went to Kool Kone for dinner with my 11-month-old, and when I got my food, the ground beef was pink. I calmly went up to the window just to bring it to their attention -- not asking for a refund or free food, because I understand mistakes happen. Instead, I was met with the owner yelling at me, insisting that ground beef turns pink when reheated but is "fully cooked." My jaw was on the floor. As a parent, that response was incredibly concerning and completely unprofessional. I wasn't looking for anything other than a simple acknowledgment, but being spoken to like that -- especially while holding my baby -- was unacceptable. i have been going to kool know for years. this was so disappointing . read more

YUMMY! It's been about 25 years. I was with my mom and was craving a fisherman's platter. I have been coming here since I could drive myself (90s) just for the onion rings. These are the onion rings that I compare all onion rings to. The think crispy, not overly battered, summer in your mouth onion rings. The scallops, fish, whole bellied delicious clams and shrimp are delectable. They also have a raspberry lime rickey that I guess is a New England thing, but so hard to find if you enjoy a refreshing summer drink. Oh they have ice cream too... if you have room. Everyone complains about the staff, I get it. they aren't that friendly. You can't fix miserable and you aren't going there for the staff. Smile, order, don't pay them any attention and enjoy your food. read more

Terrific seafood at reasonable prices. Onion rings are legendary. Will travel 30 minutes to enjoy a meal here. If you have room after generous portions try the German Chocolate cake or Milky Way ice cream. Heaven on a cone. The owner is pleasant and kind and often seen visiting with customers. A great family spot. read more

Started going to Kool Kone maybe 45 years ago...hadn't been back in about 15years...STILL good. Chocolate shakes great as always and the seafood was LESS greasy than I remember. Stuffed quahaug was so good, had the right amount of spice, didn't even need to add the hot sauce. Quick service & clean area. read more

After paying $50 for our meal and leaving a $5 tip I picked up our meal and was told we could each only have a 1/2 oz souffle cup of ketchup for our meals. I asked for a second cup of ketchup and I was told if I needed more ( which I already knew ) I could come back after I started my meal to ask for another 1/2 oz cup of ketchup. Now if their food cost is suffering, which is happening to a number of businesses, denying a second cup of ketchup for fries is not the answer. That's just embarrassing for you! read more

Excellent in all areas of this business. Food is really really good. Service is spot ion. Nice outside atmosphere is enjoyable.

Best fried seafood around and at family prices. Ultra casual dinning heated dining hall for winter and an open patio area for summer. If you like seafood and ice cream for dessert, go for it.kool Kones is so cool it's hip! read more

The Ice Cream was good but the service was not so well. Me and my friends went to get Ice Cream at Kool Kone and as we was eating ice as we walked around a worker came up to us saying "sit down I'm not in the F-ing mood" while yelling at me and my friends truly bad service. read more

Best whole belly clams that I have ever had. Huge bellies and a light color on the fry. Perfection!! Great service too!! read more

Kool Kone - My friend Bill enjoying his favorite guilty pleasure. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Wareham, Massachusetts

Been an institution for years. Having some onion rings and a blue plate bring me right back to my childhood summers. Friendly service, and the chicken finger plate is outstanding. Clam cakes are also worth visiting alone. read more

Very cool fisherman's platter at a fair price, We go there quite a bit even though it's 30 miles away, And we always have enjoyed their fresh seafood and fast service, read more

We came for the mini-golf, but stayed for the ice cream. Ordering at Kool Kone is an adventure. There's 30+ different kinds of ice cream and if they have a name with anything other than chocolate, orange, pistachio, etc. good luck ordering. Your best bet is to pick one that sounds fun and enjoy. I did and was pleasantly surprised! The mini golf was great, but it looked like nobody has cleaned the course in a few months. read more

Food is decent , ice cream is good but prices should be less and the speed of service is crazy slow. Waited so long that my family and I all got annoyed and wanted to just leave but we already paid so we're forced to stay and wait. read more

Older lady who took my order was sooo rude! Food wasn't even good! Won't be back! #Sorry not sorry!

Amazing seafood, Rich & Creamy Ice Cream. I go miles out of my way when visiting New England to make sure I get a meal there.

Given they do not mention seafood anywhere in their name, I'll admit, was a little apprehensive at first. But, everything was delicious. And the more I think about it, the name Kool Kone sounds a whole lot better than Kool Kod. read more

Pretty good ice cream, even if it's not my favorite in the area, and their specials are always a hit. But if you aren't coming for ice cream don't bother coming, it's nothing awful but I could name a dozen better places read more

Great seafood and the cost and quality match. They have a variety of food options to satisfy most people. I recommend Kool Kone for a quick bite or to find dinner on days where family schedules are tight. read more

If your searching for the perfect spot to treat the family to dinner and ice cream, this is the place! Such a friendly atmosphere and the food exceeds expectations every single time. The prices are very reasonable and the portions are huge. The seafood plates are delicious, the whole belly clams were crispy, sweet and tender. The scallops were gigantic, fresh and simply delicious. I definitely recommend trying the fried pickles, my only wish is that they came with a different dipping sauce as these come with ranch, but definitely worth a try! When we stopped by it looked like they were expanding and improving the outdoor dining area so we'll definitely be back to check that out. read more

This place is one of our local faves! Four blue plate specials - cheese burgers with fries, chicken tenders with fries, and lobster roll with six drinks for $72 (tip not included) the lobster roll is decent. It's the cold version with Mayo on toaster hot dog buns. Enough lobster to fill the roll. My husband and kids liked the burgers - juicy! My son said the tenders were tasty and crispy like he likes. I would recommend it! read more

Cool walk up restaurant with indoor and outdoor patio. It isn't much on the eyes but the food was very good and portion size was HUGE. They have food from normal burgers and dogs to a large variety of fresh seafood. We tried a lot of options and every appetizer is huge besides broccoli poppers which was normal and still delicious. I was visiting from out of town but would recommend. Seafood is market price and a little higher than you would guess from looks, but well worth it. read more

Great place for just coming off the beach lunch of fisherman's platter hot dogs hamburgers and a large soft serve cone to top it all down. YUM!!! read more

Food is fresh and delicious. Portion size is big. The onion rings are the best I have ever tasted. They don't just fry them, they season them too. Don't just take my word for it. Go taste it for yourself. You won't be disappointed. read more

Took a chance on a lobster roll and it was as good as they get! Hubby got fish N Chips and it's consistently great! read more

I love the wide variety of choices at kool kone,great hot dogs,fries, shepherds pie, but my go to is a scallop plate. The scallops always taste so fresh,tender and sweet. Also, the onion rings are to die for,,they are thin, crispy and delicious. The staff at the window are friendly and the service is quick. Makes me want to jump in my car now and go, yum! read more

Excellent seafood and icecream. Open quite long into the winter season. Low prices making it affordable for all.

Daughter ordered a medium hot fudge sundae. Came with cheap chocolate "soft serve", not hard ice cream. Barely no hot fudge hidden by whipped cream .I ordered a medium soft serve cone and got a kiddy cone. Doubled checked with server if she gave me a medium and she said yes. People in line were laughing at size of cone. Then for the finale...the waffle cone was stale, soft, and chewy. Save your money. Go elsewhere! read more

We went for lunch today. We ordered various items from chowder to a seafood platter to a burger, quesadilla, onion rings and fries. The kids also had ice cream. The food- very good for the most part with the exception of the burger (don't order a burger). The overall experience was so so. The girl working the food pick up window was bossy and abrasive. She could use some customer service training to say the least. The dining area was dirty and cold. The benches to sit on were filthy (both sandy and sticky). If the dining area is going to be unattended and uncared for perhaps a paper towel dispenser and a bottle of spray cleaner should be left in the room so people can clean the area themselves before sitting to eat. We were there over an hour on this 48 degree day and we froze in the dining area. We could see the thermostat was set to 69 but the heat never turned, it for sure was not 69 degrees in there and got colder and colder every time someone opened the door. We'll go back again because we have gift certificates to use up but we'll either eat in the car or bring some Clorox wipes to wipe things down before we sit. read more

Sssslow service... Ordered takeout food here. They told me 30 mins and been waiting over an hour. Food is just ok, not worth the wait. I'm not coming back. read more

Living on "The Cape"..we are all aware of the highly publicized tourist restaurants that boast..Best seafood." And I am not saying that they arent good..and probably overpriced... But for the locals, who know where to actually get "The Best Seafood" at a Great Price... LOOK NO FURTHER..than KOOL KONE! Whether you are looking for a meal with a large menu variety: from Lobster to Quesadillas..and Everything in between!. This place does it with Quality and Quantity being their priority! And if you arent stuffed after your meal (which would be surprising) or just out for a treat.. Their ice cream selection is awesome! Again, from a simple cone with jimmies, a huge sundae or a homemade ice cream sandwich and everything in between...You cant go wrong! read more

Not just an ice cream shop. Large menu of New England favorites, lobster rolls, friend clams, scallops fish and chips along with other items that you would not expect from a fast food take out spot. Dollar days menu is now until the end of this week. Had a lobster roll with fries for $12 and a stuffed Quoahog for $2.00. the fisheman's platter is enormous. Get there. read more

Bought a dozen clam cakes on 10/09/22 and they charged me $17.12 that was ridiculous high and they weren't that good.

Kool Kone is one of those places that bring you back to being a kid in a good way. The seafood is great and I love the blue plate specials, just wish the burger patties were a bit better quality as they taste like school burgers. The chicken tenders are fantastic and you get a lot for what you pay for it's a great value. The other part I like is they also have great ice cream and Sundays as well. Make sure you go before the lunch and diner crowds arrive as it get really busy fast. read more

Few things can take me back to my days as an awkward, skinny little girl like Kool Kone. I ate here so much as a youngin' that the whole experience of coming here with the family to chow down satisfies me on so many levels. As a result, my rating is probably a little bias, but hey, at least I'm all about full disclosure! The menu is huge, but I like to stick to my favorites, which are the fried clams and scallops. These plates come with french fries, cole slaw, & tartar sauce and are packed to the rim with fried, delectable goodness. There is no better feeling than when you bite into that first full belly clam and think to yourself, "Mmmm, I'm home, bitches!" Now don't get me wrong, you can get these tasty treats most anywhere in the area, but what's cool about Kool Kone is that they're always on point. The food is fresh, piping hot, and never over or undercooked--what more could a California girl from Massachusetts ask for? read more

I think you'll have to go to onionring eaters anonymous after a tasteof their crispy crunchy oniony goodness. Serious though food here is really good and the menu provides a variety of it! I first saw this place on TV and decided I had to try it. The batter is awesome and the tarter sauce homemade. Menu ranges from creative "seasonaly featured" sundaes to seafood and spaghetti. Prices are great and the service is amazing. I always get a smile and never given a look of inconvenience when I ask for extra tarter sauce. Bring the kids, sit outside then play some mini golf. Best thing to do after a long Beach day. Needless to say I'm a regular now. (Plus they have mini golf too) read more

Down the Cape a little early with the grandkids ; always a great go-to for seafood. Clams a little on small size but we're tasty my wife always gets scallops and they didn't disappoint. read more

I don't give 5 stars for being the best restaurant in town, I give 5 stars for being the best of it's type, and this is. You can't get better value for your food dollar in Wareham. You eat in your car or at indoor or outdoor picnic tables. There is no atmosphere, just good (not great) food. It is also an ice cream stand, but they have separate windows for food vs ice cream. They close down in the Winter. In Spring and Fall, they may close early if the weather is bad and there are few customers. I really like the fish chowder (big chunks of fish) and the Shrimp Mozambique. You never know what may appear on the specials board. I have even had swordfish there. There are times in the Summer where you will have to stand in line a long time to place your food order. read more

I truly enjoy their onion rings. Their burgers are just ok they kind of have a frozen quick defrost taste to them. Clams with bellies were delicious read more
