This place restored my faith in Poughkeepsie dining with a kind wonderful, wonderful employee with a child that was well-behaved great product, clean establishment cute location plenty of parking an extensive menu that I haven't seen even in New York City itself. I cannot wait to return because my daughter goes to school up there and try and sample more of their product this is what a business about. read more

The ice cream flavors are great! I enjoy the coffee fudge, strawberry cheesecake, and Reese's cookie dough. The owner and her staff are terrific. Don't miss this place! read more

This is by far my favorite ice cream in the area, actual homemade ice cream and not Perry's as so many of the other local places serve. The burgers are good too. read more

Oh my heaven! Stopped here for the first time today. I got Vanilla Caramel Brownie and my Mom got Rocky Road. Both were soooooo good. We can't wait to come back, and try their meals too!!!! read more

They're open again :) now they also have Jamaican food in addition to the regular burgers and fries fare. Really cute ice cream place, and the ice cream is really good. The prices are very reasonable, and the sizes ample. read more

Wonderful selection of ice cream flavors, some I hadn't heard of. Friendly smiling faces of staff members. We were in town for a college tour and were pleasantly surprised. Will definitely visit again when in the area. read more

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! Not sure about the ice cream but if it's the same quality as their food, wouldn't recommend to my worst enemy. Ordered jerk chicken and rice and beans which resembled a dried up piece of rotten wood. No flavor whatsoever and on top of that was given a side of barbecue sauce. Who does that? Rice was beyond bland, asked for ox tail gravy on top and of course was too much to ask. zero jerk spice on the chicken which was completely overdone to the point of being unedible. Mac and cheese is just as bad. Must've been sitting in 2 inches of oil. DISGUSTING! On top of that service was a joke. Definitely annoyed the guy behind the counter just for ordering their food. Would've been happier paying 18 dollars for ground dirt. Do not waste your time or money! Wish I could give negative stars. read more

The amount of food and drinks available is massive. My friend lined the food she got, and the boba and milkshake (two different drinks) I got were amazing. I'm already planning to take another friend there. This place is awesome and the staff is so friendly. read more

Ordered from here a couple times now, food is always great, I love the cheeseburger & beef patties (although I wish they had beef patty with cheese), I also loveddd the salted caramel milkshake, the vanilla had a bit of an aftertaste (it might've been bc it melted by the time I got it though), wasn't a big fan of the red velvet cake either, I haven't been in person so i don't know how the service is as of right now but I imagine it's wonderful, hopefully I get to go in person soon! read more

We went to this place for the first time. They have both soft serve and hard ice cream. We got hard ice cream. My guy usually orders vanilla but decided to order the pistachio which was full of nuts! He was so glad he ordered it. I got chocolate which was rich and creamy. Definitely would come back again. read more

I love bubble tea. I ordered the passion fruit tea with passion fruit bursts and mixed jellies. It was ok. Very sweet and I had a hard time getting at the jellies. If I come back, I would say less sweet and no ice. The staff is super nice tho. read more

The Food is amazing! the Ice-cream is home made with a lot of flavors to choose from. I was able to sample the Grapenut ice-cream, the SourSop Ice-cream, Dragon Stout, the coconut Pineapple, passion fruit as well as the rum raisin flavor. My kids love the cheese burgers and the chicken nuggets with fries. read more

Woman who works at the counter is very nice, quick service, really good ice cream! I would recommend this place

Great ice cream, friendly people, friendly customers, clean tables, and an old fashioned tip jar. I had a chocolate brownie cone, wife had a soft serve peanut butter / cheesecake double swirl. Only three minutes from the Poughkeepsie Walkway over the Hudson. If there were any problems starting up with new management, seems to us like they have been solved. read more

OMG, bacon cheeseburger I have not had one that good in a long time I've been to expensive restaurants i and the burger and fries aremediocre at best.. I ordered my bacon cheeseburger with fries and onion rings from Sugar and OMG that was like the tastiest burger I've had and I can't remember how long. Their burgers are bigger than the buns they are cooked exactly how you order them. So if you're looking for a good Burger and sidesI would definitely check them out. read more

Hands down the best ice cream I've ever had. Home made decadence. We had chocolate, strawberry cheesecake, mint chocolate, brownie, and an espresso ice cream. Every single one was epic. Also have a menu of bites to eat like burgers dogs and fries. 12/10 go here. read more

Great selection of ice cream and hot foods. Service was friendly and quick despite being busy. Great spot!

This was great! I was visiting the area and looking to satisfy a sweet craving. Suffice to say my craving was satisfied! The owners were really nice and the place also had vegan options for my friend. read more

place is under new ownership and took a turn for the worst service was bad ice cream was melted in the cup as soon as I took it and the taste was off I felt like I was being given a attitude because they don't know what a sundae consists of will not being going back sorry to say and the prices are ridiculous they are over charging and the prices don't match up from the menu I give 1 star read more

Ice cream is soft and really good. They have a large range of sizes available to get which is great for someone like me that just wants a small amount of ice cream. read more

Su ' Gar is a new ice cream shop on Violet Ave. In Poughkeepsie. Owners are very friendly, and aim to please their customers. Hard ice cream is made on-site, and it is creamy, smooth, and delicious. Flavors stand out, unlike some shops where everything tastes the same. If you like Pistachio, you will find that they use teal Pistacio nuts, rather than cheaper varieties. Butter Pecan is also a winner. The various fruit flavors are also stand outs. This shop is friendly, very clean, and pleasing to the eye. Stop by, see for yourself....you won't be sorry. read more

Home made fresh ice cream. Clean friendly service great price also family run . Plus 19 different ice creams read more

Su'gar - Ice cream bar - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Poughkeepsie, New York

Look no further for your ice cream needs: Su'gar is here. Small and deceivingly tucked away onto the side of Violet Avenue is a world of sweet treats handmade by the owners and soft-serve galore. The owners are always friendly and accommodating to all who enter their teal world. My grandma and I love visiting this place, it is 100% worth the drive time and time again. read more

Su'gar is a great place for a post-meal treat! Their varieties of flavors is excellent. On my first visit, I had the Peanut Butter Fudge and the next time I had the Midnight Espresso Coffee. The owners are very nice and super hospitable. It's close to several local colleges too. Definitely worth a try if you're in the area. read more

Great ice cream and service; good selection of flavors (hard ice cream made by owners)! Very clean and cute store.

This was the first place I took my daughter for her birthday downtown ice cream safari while camping near Hyde Park. When we walked through the door, all the tables and chairs were put neatly in a corner and the were red tape marks for where to stand six feet apart. We were the only ones in the store and they had plastic barriers, masks, and gloves on. Their variety was very wide and had soft serve, homemade, and flavor burst options. The owners were very kind overall and generous with scoops. My daughter ordered the cookie dough and said it was delicious. We went to another ice cream place (hence the ice cream safari above) afterwards (the frozen caboose) and in comparison were unimpressed with the Rocky Road and Instagraham. The Rocky Road's peanuts in my daughter's scoop were soggy and the Instagraham was flavorless, but we would definitely recommend the Trash Can flavor. My daughter even said that she preferred Su'gar to the other ice cream place, wishing she had just stayed at Su'gar and gotten a bigger serving there. That is significant because my daughter LOVES ice cream and would never turn down a scoop. Overall, Su'gar was a very enjoyable experience. read more

Lovely couple running the store, always very helpful and friendly. The food is very good, lots of variety of ice cream. Best local place to get Boba too! read more

The banana cream pie ice cream is really good! Super clean and nice inside too.

Top notch ice cream provided by two incredibly sweet people. This place offers a wide variety of flavors. I had banana cream pie ice cream while passing through the area and it was excellent. I live over an hour from Poughkeepsie but I'd drive all the way out just for this ice cream parlor. Remarkably tasty ice cream, amazing owners, a cute little parking lot, what's not to love? The perfect place to get an after dinner dessert or just get ice cream whenever you're in the mood. And they also have hot food like burgers! Haven't tried them, but it's still a nice added bonus to see hot food items at an ice cream parlor. read more

Fantastic ice cream- Homemade and soft serve. They could not have been nicer. It is well worth making a trip to this area just for this ice cream! Very reasonably priced as well! And they even have a food menu which looks good but we could not resist the ice cream! This is a find! read more

This is a brand new ice cream shop. I stopped by 2 weeks ago with my husband and we tried the peanut butter and strawberry flavor, they were so delicious. You can tell that they use good quality base to make the ice creams. We definitely will come back again! Btw, the staff are really nice. :) read more

Really excellent homemade ice cream and a big variety of flavors. Prices are very reasonable considering the high quality product. They do sell hot food but we haven't tried anything but the ice cream. read more
