    Outside!
    Paul P.

    Ice cream in new dorp! Better than the other options in terms of both price and variety! Inside: space to sit and eat very spacious with pop music playing! Service: only two people working the counter on a Thursday night which is fine but i guess a lot of people wanted ice cream today so a little wait. They were prompt and helpful though! They have coffee, bubble tea, cakes, tarts, and of-course ice cream! Best price for the ice cream compared to the other ice cream places here!

    (M) Milk Tea with boba

    I ordered a boba tea from here. I love the fact that you can adjust the sugar level. The delivery guy was polite. The store got my order right.

    NOT what I ordered

    Unfortunately they messed up my order twice now. I wanted a Jasmine green milk tea and they gave me some cherry flavored pudding tea. It tasted like medicine and NOT what I ordered. The first time they messed up they forgot my boba. Lately, they have not been making good boba and I'm so disappointed.

    Almond milk tea

    If your looking for a go-to dessert spot, look no further. The milk teas are all really good, my favorite is the almond milk tea with 30% sugar. The ice creams are great and the prices are very fair. I come here a lot and it never disappoints. They open later than other dessert spots and there's seating here for about 10-15 ppl. The staff is really nice and welcoming.

    Lives up to the name...ice cream, macaroons, frosty beverages, cakes, smoothies, and milk teas. If you're looking for a sugar high this is the spot! Prices vary from $2 for a macaroon to $25 for a dozen macaroons...broken ones are half off! It's a nice place to visit after the library since it's right across the street. Enjoy sweets with your sweetheart!

    Bubble Tea: FIVE STARS Service: TWO STARS My brothers and I love getting bubble tea from something sweet. We have a poke bowl around our area that also has a "something sweet" section in the back area. I've been to this location in particular several times and the bubble tea is super consistent. It's usually pretty busy whenever I go. However I did have one bad experience when coming here. My friends and I stopped at another place to get drinks and then came to this store since one of our other friends really liked the smoothies here. We all entered and stood at the corner waiting for her. The worker got super upset at us and told us we weren't allowed to bring drinks here but we told them we were only waiting for our friend who was ordering a drink and we weren't planning to stay in. It was pouring outside and that worker did see one of our friends go order online. I'm assuming they expected us to stay outside in the rain when waiting for our friend. The location is big and there was plenty of room to sit so it wasn't like we were preventing people from sitting. A few minutes later, while we were still standing at the corner of the store sipping our drinks and waiting for our friend, I'm assuming the manager came out, and rudely told us that in order to eat or drink we have to show our COVID vaccine card. I thoroughly understand how important safety is for everyone and we were all fully vaccinated. But we knew they were just targeting us at this point since another group of people sat down at a table without being asked to show their card way before us. It was just too much heat between us and the workers at this point. So we decided to go out and wait for our friend. I may be wrong but I'm assuming this is an Asian owned business since majority of the people that work here are Asian since they spoke the same language as me and Nicole Li is the owner of something sweet. As someone who is Chinese, I love supporting my own people, but sadly this one experience really upset me and I no longer feel as comfortable as I did before when coming here.

    Vanilla fudge swirl
    Vicki C.

    Decent local ice cream spot! Very friendly place with comfortable seating and cute decor. They have many ice cream flavors and toppings to choose from! Aside from just ice cream, they also serve your typical sundaes, milkshakes and egg creams. A big plus is their addition of Asian flavors -- black sesame, milk tea, red bean, taro, etc. Although they have a lot of flavors available, I felt like majority of the flavors just weren't strong enough. I tried a small rafting of the milk tea, taro and dulce de leche. The milk tea and taro wasn't pungent enough and the dulce de leche tasted a bit strange. I settled on the vanilla fudge swirl which was pretty good!

    Great selection and taste with a nice staff. It's bright and seems very clean and is a good place to get a variety of ice-cream.

    So rude and nasty!! The food here may be good but I left before actually getting anything. The manager is extremely rude to customers.

    I feel cheated and robbed from cold Stone creamery by the store manager, Anna…read more The first week of January 2026 I went to discuss and possibly order a cake for a birthday on Jan 31. I wanted an image put on top of the cake. There was no way to tell how this image would look on the cake because the store isn't equipped with the kind of technology that can drop and drag a photo so that you can see what it would look like on the square cake. I was very apprehensive Anna Constantly told me to trust her trust her trust her. I kept telling her that I need for her to understand what I want, it seemed to me that she was yessing me to death. And I kind of felt rushed and pressured into placing the order. And reluctantly, I did place the order but 24 hours later I changed my mind and I realized that she had no clue as to what I wanted. I didn't feel confident that she was going to make the cake the way that I wanted it and I know that I'm in my timeframe to cancel since there was three weeks to go before I needed the cake. Upon arriving to the store to cancel the cake, I was taken by surprise by Anna and her other colleagues that they did not know how to process a refund you would think you simply hand your debit card over and they reverse the transaction, but this was much too complicated for anyone inside of cold Stone creamery to even comprehend how it was done. My refund of $111.14 had to go to the corporate office, I asked Anna to give me a receipt, some sort of trust and faith that we mutually understood one another that my $111.14 refund was indeed coming back to me. She offered me no receipt she offered me no confidence whatsoever Ave other than her word alone that I will be getting a refund she told me to trust her. So 3 weeks later today is January 23, 2026. I still have not received my refund. When I called the store any one of the employees tell me that they are not educated or understand understand the refund process. So therefore I'm still waiting for my refund of $111.14 which I believe I am never going to receive. I feel cheated. I feel robbed. I will never trust this ice cream shop ever again. I am very disappointed in this whole entire process. I have never experienced something like this before and I think other people should also be warned when you shop in cold Stone creamery. They may or may not understand what you want and when you decide, you don't want the product because you don't feel confident that they could actually make what you want I think they get insulted and they try to give you a hard time to prevent you from taking your money back. I am going to fight with these people every single day until I get my money back.

    Love it there the staff is amazing. The food is really good the owner is really nice and…read morepersonalable and Benny is amaing.
