Skipper Dipper is the best! We went 4 times during our weeklong vacation. The line looks long but don't be scared away, it moves quickly and they take your order before you get inside so it keeps flowing. My favorite flavors are peanut butter pie and party cake. The cones are huge! I ordered regular the first day and then switched to kiddie cones on our other visits. The ice cream is super creamy and delicious. Pricing is fair. There are tables and benches outside to eat at. They also bring around wet wipes and temporary tattoos. Great place! read more

My sister has a home out here and all the kids this place is the goto. I have never been in person but both my daughter and Newphew delivered delivered just fine. Every-time I come down in need to hit up this icecream shop and nardis for their banging Philly cheese steak. Love love love and they also have a punch card. Come here for good icecream! read more

An iconic Beach Haven ice cream joint. Very busy but the service is very fast. I got a waffle cone with a smear of Nutella, so good. This place brings back a lot of childhood memories. They seem to get better with age. read more

I am here to report that Skipper Dipper is still the best soft serve on the island. We brought our baby for opening day yesterday. The staff, as always, couldn't have been nicer (tip your servers, folks! I forgot and had to go back in with cash because they are the nicest) and the ice cream was 10/10 per usual. My husband got vanilla soft serve and I got a cranberry chocolate swirl (my favorite) in a chocolate chip cone. Baby had nothing since she's too little. Worth every penny. Happy 48th year, SD! We're your biggest fans. See you in July or August for baby's first scoop of her own. read more

The ice cream here is very good and a staple on the island. The portion sizes are very good but expected at their price point. The service is also good. read more

Truly a gem in LBI! Everyone is so nice and attentive to you! Love the variety flavors you get for hard and soft serve ice cream. I recommend getting a Strawberry soft serve and S'mores for hard ice cream! You won't regret it. read more

If you love ice cream this is a must! Every flavor is popping! I love chocolate chip cookie, not to be confused with chocolate chip cookie dough. Get the ice cream sandwich for a bonus! Staff and Owners are amazing! It is a summer ritual that never gets old for young and experienced ( not old). read more

Great selection of ice cream and it all tastes so fresh and homemade. The service is great and they aren't stingy with the toppings either. My favorite is the s'mores. Family favorite place in LBI every summer read more

There are so many ice cream spots on LBI but Skipper Dipper is definitely in my top 5! They sell Giffords so you know every flavor is top tier. They also have a few non-dairy options! I'm a sucker for peanut butter and chocolate so I had to get peanut butter pie with the chocolate shell. Hits the spot every time! read more

Best ice cream on the island! Service is fast and efficient. On a hot summer day, the line gets long, but moves quickly. Get a punch card while you're on vacation and earn some free ice cream by the end of the week. Don't be discouraged by the line, you'll be in and out before you know it. Small parking lot next to the building. Take a walk after dinner if you can. read more

Skipper Dipper - 2 scoops chocolate chip cookie dough in a waffle cone. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Long Beach Township, New Jersey

Great service as always. I never usually catch a line, but this time I did. What I love is that staff members try to take your order while you're in line and still even offer samples if you're unsure. Towards Labor Day weekend they start offering fall flavors like pumpkin pie and cinnamon bun, which is exciting. I got to try a skipper-fy which is adding a chocolate or vanilla soft serve on top of your hard scoop ice cream. It's an amazing choice to do a vanilla Skipperfy with the cinnamon bun ice cream - WOW! Top notch service and ice cream every time, and the people are always so friendly. Skipper dipper is clean , cool, and has a vibe that you'll always want to come back to whenever you're down by LBI. Thanks for a great season!! Looking forward to next year! read more

Tons of ice cream flavors, very efficient fast service for such a busy local attraction down the shore. Accepts both cash and cards -- and has a parking lot on site. Have sizes ranging from kiddie size to large scoops with the ability to choose from 1-2 flavors regardless of the size. Aside from their list of hard ice cream flavors they also have soft serves to choose from, milkshakes, sundaes, ice cream sandwiches and even ice cream carvel style cakes. This isn't a super quick grab and go place due to it's popularity so expect to spend at least 20 mins here. The store itself is a super cute beach town shop that's bright that doesn't offer places to sit down and enjoy your ice cream. read more

I was there last week with my family and we purchased ice cream, crock pendants and mugs. We had a young man helping us that I later found out it was his first shift so a man assisted him with ringing us up. I just want to let you know that the young man was very polite and helpful and the gentleman who helped him was very generous. You have a great group of young adults working hard for you and should be proud of them! Our family has always had great experiences when we come to your amazing ice cream shop and my only regret is that we are not closer to you so we can come there all the time. Thanks for all the good memories you have made over the years for my family and now my grandkids! Can't wait to come back next summer ! read more

Always a hit never a miss ! Lines run quickly and smoothly- workers are working and the ice cream delivers! You can't LBI and not be on the line to Happy! read more

My family and I will wait on this line anytime. Love the dip! Need to head to the dipper now!

Though now closed for the season, you're sure to enjoy the delicious wide variety of ice cream once open again. Lines can get long and prices are high, but worth the treat during warm weather months. read more

Best ice cream ever! Always visit when I'm on the island. No matter the wait, it's always worth it!

Best ice cream, selection and staff on LBI! We never leave LBI without stopping for a treat!

Homemade waffle cones, incredible service and a super long list of flavors... oh my! Obviously there are tons of places to get ice cream on the island, but none are quite like Skipper Dipper! Their super long list of flavors included a handful of rotating flavors to keep things interesting. Their waffle cones are homemade, and call for a super large "small" scoop! We went late on a Sunday, so the line wasn't too long, but when it is, employees will take your orders ahead of time so that its ready by the time you get to the counter! I also got a punch card for their rewards system to keep me coming back, as if their anazing ice cream wasnt enough! read more

This ice cream shop is an amazing establishment! I met the owners when I went and they were such joyful, pompous individual who loved what they did! Their ice cream was phenomenal and tasted exactly like what you would expect and more. The ambiance was infectious as when we walked through the door we were greeted with a warm welcome and they gave us as many samples as we desired, they even offered us their best flavors to sample. I will be returning regularly to this shop as everything about it was perfect. read more

Best ice cream experience we've had on LBI. Staff is extraordinary and the way they take orders makes even a line down the street go quickly. read more

Service was great. Long lines. The ice cream tasted more like ice milk. Got toasted coconut and it had chocolate chips in it. They should let you know when there are additives. read more

Best ice cream on LBI! People so kind and friendly and do their best to keep the line moving.

Top noch service and the owner is awesome. The lines are long but the servers come out and get it moving rapidly. Great vibe and clientele

The options are endless and the ice cream is really good. The cones are made there and also great. I gave them a 5 star rating but I would say it's closer to 4.5 because they are not quick in there and there's always a huge line. The speciality ice creams are so good though. read more

The service is amazing. Super nice employees! Ice cream is fantastic! Shop is super cute and fun!

Good ice cream and generous portions. The menu is a little confusing (I'd rather flavors just be listed alphabetically) and they were out of a few flavors. Didn't stop us from coming back a second time though! read more

Skipper dipper is always a must when I visit LBI. The lines get long at night but they move fast. The ice cream is delicious and you can't go wrong with any of the flavors! read more

The best ice cream I've ever had - enough said. I've come here dozens (hundreds?) of times over the years. The line is always out the door and intimidating, but they've got a big staff and they run like a well oiled machine, so it always goes way faster than you'd think. I'm a mint chip fan, so I love the grasshopper sunday. read more

Skipper Dipper - Grasshopper Sundae - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Long Beach Township, New Jersey

My family and I have been going to LBI for 8 years, but 2 years ago, when we found Skipper Dipper, and dessert on LBI had changed forever. This is easily the best Ice cream in LBI, with a wide variety of flavors, toppings, sundaes, and vegan/ gluten free options. Though at times there's a large line, it almost always moves quick and you usually get served within 25 minutes when the line is at its longest, but it's worth it. All of the staff are super friendly, and make sure you get served as soon as possible. It is good to take home, or sit outside on the benches. It is has a fair amount of room to sit outside, and the inside is decorated amazingly and it's really cool to be in. Overall, this is the perfect place for ice cream in LBI and is a good treat after a long day at the beach. read more

Skipper Dipper - The sign outside - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Long Beach Township, New Jersey

Best ice cream spot on LBI. So many unique flavors and the cones are big! The staff is incredibly organized despite the huge line we were in. They moved us along well and I'd was totally worth the visit. The pistachio ice cream was really really good, many fantastic flavors making it hard to choose so that makes me go back again and again, Don't miss it if you are there! read more

Ah, Skipper Dipper. My love. My swan song. How I long to return for my free ice cream that I have earned thanks to 10 punches on my visit card. Maybe next time. No, definitely. A Vanilla Peanut Butter Sundae with dry walnuts, whip and two cherries please. Sam is the best dipper in my opinion but all are truly diptastic. Soft serve is delicious, hard flavors are uniquely named and delectable. A creature of habit, I stick to my Vanilla Peanut Butter Sundae but I appreciate a sample here and there. Toasted Coconut is excellent. Fat Elvis is a fun combo. I hear Maine Blueberry is great but it always sells out before I can sample. Plenty of Dole Whip and Italian Ice too. Warning: the line is long at night but LBI evenings are pleasant and the authorized dippers start taking your order and delivering to you while you wait to check out. Afternoons are slower if you prefer to skip in then. Tables with umbrellas outside for you to dip under with fellow ice cream aficionados. I'll be back Skipper Dipper. Yes, I'll drive the two hours from North Jersey back to LBI for an end of summer scoop! Wait for me. read more

Skipper dipper came recommended during our visit to LBI and we are so happy we stopped! We saw a line when we walked in the door but we're quickly greeted by a server who took our order before we got to the counter. I couldn't believe with how many people were there our entire experience probably took only 10 minutes. The service is amazing here! The menu is extensive. I ordered a scoop of salted caramel and s'more in a waffle cone. I added on the cookie butter smear to my cone....a must do! It filled the bottom of your cone so you have extra flavors as you get to the bottom. All around a must visit while in LBI! read more

Great service and dessert. The vegan options is why I went and I was very satisfied with the dessert

We went to skipper dipper over the weekend, a little bit preseason to the major crowds and there is still a little bit of a line out the door. Once we got our ice cream and malt shake it was clear why. Skipper dipper is clearly in LBI classic. My chocolate peanut butter ice cream, which is my favorite flavor, was perfection and the waffle cone tasted like it was made fresh, among the best that I have had! I would absolutely recommend Skipper dipper to anybody visiting Long Beach Island I'm looking for an ice cream spot. I believe their hours are later over the summer, or at least longer. Everything here looks really good and I will definitely be coming back on any future Long Beach island visits and recommending list to others! It seems like they have all the classics and then some twists and unique flavors both hard ice cream and soft serve, shakes and malts, and more! read more

One of the best ice cream shops I've had the pleasure of visiting! So many flavors of both hard ice cream and soft serve with different variations of making orders which is so unique. Ice cream is extremely flavorful, thick and creamy. Huge portions and you get what you pay for. The s'mores flavor was out of this world! Inside was like a marshmallow sauce of some sort, just outstanding! Cotton candy flavor was so sweet and the cupcake soft serve really did taste like a funfetti cupcake. Amazing how close they got it to taste like the real thing. Also very efficient service -- they had employees step out into the line as well as standing behind the counter taking orders. Very late summer hours which is convenient for locals and night owls. Do NOT miss out on Skipper Dipper when visiting LBI! read more

As a veteran ice cream scooper and commander of custard, I know a thing or two about frozen treats. Skipper Dipper has got their method down to a science! Yes, this is a very popular business and it's likely that you will have to wait in line. However, once you get to the part that snakes inside the building, you're in luck. That's because they have employees who walk into the line to take orders. So by the time you get up to the counter for payment, you have ice cream in hand! My first (and definitely not last) visit yielded a glorious cake cone which was fully loaded with mint chocolate chip and coffee ice creams. The ice creams were high quality; full of flavor and desired creaminess. Those scoops tho. read more

Skipper Dipper - Look at these scoops! Coffee and mint chocolate chip! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Long Beach Township, New Jersey

Any ice cream place that has Moontracks has an automatically 4 stars... :) and then the service is on point! The girls really hustle and tend to their customers! This place gets busy! Must have been 20 people inside waiting for ice cream on a Wednesday evening!!! But the line went fast because they staff there really hustles! And that's makes me give this place 5 stars!! The signs are clear and helps you figures out what you want and how much what you want costs. They have a parking lot for about 10 cars which is nice. They have a handicap ramp which makes it a nice touch for handicap or moms with strollers. Again it's so nice to find a place that has my favorite ice cream... not something you find in stores in most populated areas... I find them in shore or wood/mountain communities only. Moontracks is vanilla ice cream with peanut butter cup and fudge. Yummy The serving sizes are generous as well! They have waffles cones also What a treat! Haven't had this since Alaska 2012! read more
