A true Rumford classic; I've been coming to Sunshine creamery since I was a kid and have never had a bad experience! After moving out of State I am always looking for an excuse to go and this past weekends severe rain storm didn't deter me by any means! You know the ice cream is worth it when there's a line in the pouring rain! My husband was shocked when the girl handed him his cup and questioned if she had mistakenly given him a large as he had never seen such large scoops in a small; the ice cream is always fresh and delicious! read more

Sunshine Creamery continues to be a family favorite ice cream spot for us. Nothing fancy here, just good quality, tasty treats to enjoy in a relaxed environment. They post their weekly sundae specials on their social media so follow along for the most up to date options available. read more

Unfortunately, todays visit did not even deserve one star. I ordered a banana split and got a bowl of warm soup covered in whipped cream. In ten years i've given only maybe 4 bad reviews. The girl tried to explain it off as it was a hot day and all the ice cream was soft. To top it off when I got my refund it was incorrect. just one of those days. It would appear from the reviews that were sub-par. It usually is due to melted ice cream. read more

Nothing beats a nice BIG scoop of Sunshine ice cream on this nice hot day! The young lady at the counter was so sweet and polite. Their ice cream was the perfect consistency and hit the spot! So delicious. A must try if you're in the area. read more

My husband and I split the banana pudding special. It was amazing!!!! I'm so happy to hear it's being added as a permanent special!!!

This is a place that is always busy and for good reason! Service is friendly and efficient, always serving with a smile! The ice cream is delicious and the portions are huge! The flavor options are especially unique like the strawberry cheesecake and cinnamon churro ! This is a classic New England ice cream stop with reasonable prices! You will not be disappointed! read more

Sunshine is one of those local staples that only gets better with time. No matter if it is a 90 degree day or a chilly New England evening, the staff is always wonderful, helpful and happy to serve you. Their new weekly sundae collections (with their own fun tik toks to go with them!) are fun and special and give you a reason to check in often. read more

Run, don't walk! This neighborhood gem is whipping up some seriously delicious homemade ice cream. Owned and operated by a local dairy in Johnston, RI - everything here is fresh and made with lots of love. If you're not sure what to order, we recommend one of their sundaes which is sky high with ice cream, sauces and the creamiest whipped cream!! The staff are always so friendly and there is lots of outdoor seating and off street parking. read more

I never give one's! I'll make an exception for this place. Liquid in the cone, so melted it was thinner than an awful awful. Same for my grandsons cup of liquid cream. After having them drip all over us on the way to a table we tossed them and left. No quality control here, they earned a one tonight. read more

Stopped by for a quick cone today. Got a small cone with black raspberry chocolate chip yogurt and heathbar yogurt. Delicious! Didnt even seem like I was eating yogurt! The worker was super pleasant. Plenty of parking and some outside tables. read more

Sunshine Creamery - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Rumford, Rhode Island

Was very excited to try this ice cream shop out! I didn't feel up to my usual sundae, and asked if they had milkshakes. Forgot that in Rhode Island they call milkshakes "frappes". Ordered my vanilla frappe and upon getting it, I saw how liquidy it looked. They gave me a boba tea straw with it which seemed odd, but made sense because milkshakes are usually thick. It took me a second to fit the straw in the cup because the cup wasn't made for a boba straw. The first taste was off-putting. It had a weird taste and didn't taste like a regular milkshake. I was a bit disappointed, but will try this place again and see if their ice cream is better. Also they don't take credit cards, so remember to bring cash! read more

The ice cream is really good. I am a big mint chocolate chip fan and they have some of the best I've ever had. The staff is very friendly and the service is great. This is the perfect place if you want something sweet during a hot summer day. read more

Great place to stop in for a quick ice cream if you're looking for a no frills ice cream stand with lots of flavors. It's just a walk up but they have a great selection and their ice cream is actually really quite good. It's a little tucked away and isn't that interesting to look at but it really makes it up in taste! read more

A CLASSIC!!! I've been coming here since I can remember with my grandparents who live in EP. We love it! Big scoops for your buck and the ice cream is always delicious. We got 2 smalls (which would be larges somewhere else) 2 scoops each, for $9. Not bad. The menu is large; they have regular cups, cones, milkshakes, sundaes, ect. And then many toppings to add. So more than enough options. Beware: it is cash only which sucks so make sure to bring cash! read more

Sunshine Creamery - Coffee ice cream w/ rainbow sprinkles - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Rumford, Rhode Island

This ice cream stop is so delicious! So many ice cream flavors that are made locally to choose from! Staff was quick and friendly and made the line move quickly. I got one scoop of ice cream with hot fudge and whipped cream, so good! The whipped cream is homemade too!! They offer picnic tables to sit and enjoy. Highly recommend this place! FYI: Cash only read more

Delicious!!!! Friendly staff. New and exciting flavors! Can't Go wrong with anything you order ! Yum!

Went while visiting a friend in the area. Great service and, yes, with a smile. Portions are a good size!!!

Went to Sunshine tonight with my family. The staff was so nice and sweet. Ice cream was delicious and portions were huge! If you haven't been to Sunshine you need to go! You will not be disappointed! We can't wait to go back! read more

Big portion. Ice cream was great. Great spot. My only complaint would be the flimsy plastic spoon. Will not go into ice cream without bending. I know it's being picky but that was the only issue. Wouldn't stop from returning, with my own spoon read more

I used love Sunshine Creamery. It was our place to go for ice cream. Last year they couldn't make a strawberry sundae correctly, they added hot fudge to it. It was given back and reordered and again it had hot fudge. This summer we wanted to give it another try. The strawberry sundae included hit fudge again. The sorbet had very little flavor and the whipped cream had none. Everything went in the trash. read more

Update: still gives large portions of ice cream at a lower than average price, however, they now sell S.B. Winsor Dairy's ice cream out of Johnston, RI rather than Bliss in Attleboro (I personally prefer Bliss over Winsor). Outdoor seating only, good stop for a sugar fix. ------------------------------------- This place gives you a very large portion of premium quality Bliss brand local area ice cream (mmmm Graham Central Station) that is a lot less expensive than most ice cream shops. read more

Sunshine Creamery is a cute little ice cream place in East Providence (er... Rumford?) with a pretty big menu, friendly staff and outdoor seating. I'm a big fan of their cherry dip cone. Vanilla ice cream, sugar cone, dipped in that hard cherry shell. They don't skimp on ice cream, almost to the point of OMG TOO MUCH! If I had a complaint it's that their sugar-free selection is lacking. Last time we went there was only coffee and some pecan flavor. Vanilla would be cool. Something I haven't tried but want to is one of their ice cream pies. Ice cream with toppings, laid ontop of a cookie or brownie shell. Yum, yum yum. read more

Adorable little ice cream shack with SO many flavors and unbeatable prices. My husband always tries new flavors, but I'm a creature of habit - chocolate chip cookie dough sundae with peanut butter. The serving size is often too much, but if that's my only complaint.. I'd say this place is doin things right. Even on a busy night, the kids on staff are speedy and you never have to wait too long! read more

Service and product is great, but only when they are open as advertised. supposed to be open noon to 8:00 pm, but at 2:25 in the afternoon and it's closed. I won't keep coming back, not knowing if they will be open or not read more

The ice cream is good, the scoops are generous, the people are friendly. Many happy memories taking my kids there. We live right around the corner. But we never go anymore because they don't take cards. It's just not good enough to justify a trip to the ATM read more

According to my stepfather my whole family is "ice cream insane". We eat more ice cream than anyone he's ever met. Sunshine Creamery has ruined most others for me. HUGE servings, awesome flavors without them being some cheesy softserve mix in (no hate eskimo king, just sometimes ya need some real blended hard ice cream). Lines do get long but they move fast. CASH only, but the gas station next door makes it very known they have an ATM. read more

Love the frozen yogurt but hate the bad attitude from the high school staff. Waited in a 10 person deep line while the girl behind the counter chatted with a girlfriend for 15 minutes totally ignoring the customers. 5 people behind the counter 2 working with customers? Bad attitude ruins the great flavor it's really too bad. read more

OMG....the best sundae I have ever tasted. Had the Brownie Sundae with Cherry, peanutbutter cup and toffee ice cream. read more

Cute, small ice cream shack with a good selection of flavors. Had the cotton candy, one of the best versions of the flavor Ive tried. Only downside is that they only take cash. Would go again! read more

Disappointed that the brownie sundae is Little Debbie Cosmic Brownies. The "big scoop" used to be bigger as well! Flavor choices are still good. read more

Sunshine creamery is a nice option for ice cream close to the east side of providence (just over henderson bridge) and east prov. It is nice somerset creamery or grays but it does the trick without the driving. They have a nice selection of flavors, which I believe are made somewhere else, with a friendly staff and reasonable prices. They give good sized portions as well. The one complaint is that the seating can be a bit dark at night and you are literally sitting on the roadside in one of the two sections. It can also get crowded at peak times, but that was a good sign last I checked. read more

We just moved to the area and when giving general "this is where we live" directions, we mentioned Sunshine Creamery as a landmark..Everyone, and I mean *everyone* said "You're gonna love that place! Such good ice cream!" and they were right. A small is two good sized scoops, I had the Salted Caramel, my husband had Coffee Oreo, and not a false note or ice crystal to be found! Really good, really creamy, and pretty reasonable. We have another lure in our basket to get our Providence pals over the bridge to East Providence for a visit! read more

This place was good. Very generous portions and one of the best ice cream shops around. As long as I'm in the area I will make time for this place! read more

One trip to Sunshine Creamery and I am transported back to my childhood when my family would jump in the car to visit one of our favorite local ice cream stands. This place has been a summer time fixture in East Providence for as long as I can remember and it seems like over the years its tough to find a place with better prices and a wider selection of flavors. They have at least 25+ ice cream flavors (for example: mint oreo, red velvet cake and almond joy) to go along with a handful of low fat yogurt, no sugar added and sherbet options. On a recent visit we ordered a cup of the coffee heath bar yogurt and one of the chocolate peanut cup. They give you two generous scoops for a small sized dish and both were so creamy and tasty and hard to beat at a price of roughly $6 total. With friendly service and a nice picnic table area to sit at, Sunshine Creamery has you covered as a reliable and enjoyable ice cream destination. read more

My favorite ice cream place around. Lots of flavors to choose from and very good prices compared to more upscale places that sell ice cream. If your really craving some ice cream, try the Sunshine Creamery Sundae. It's almost bottomless! read more

I'm normally not a sweet tooth guy. A few weeks ago during the heat wave, ice cream just seemed like a necessity. I ordered coffee oreo ice cream. It was freaking awesome. The small was monstrous. We ate out back at one of the many picnic tables. This place is perfect. Can't wait to go back! read more
