We decided to stop by and get some ice cream on our stroll on the boardwalk. The service was excellent and the young man immediately asked if our dog would like a pup cup and held it for her as she ate it. So sweet. We both got cups, a chocolate brownie and a strawberry. The serving sizes were decent and the ice cream was good. They have tons of flavors to choose from so you will have a tough decision. It is just a boardwalk ice cream store so you can take your sweet treat and sit on one of the benches and enjoy all the activities on the beach and the boardwalk. A perfect stop for a summer day. read more

They their homemade flavors of course. Also I love the free sprinkle bar, don't forget to add some! Don't worry if the line is long, they move quick.

This is our go to ice cream place when we visit Rehoboth Beach. We have been coming here for many years now and this place is still the best! They have a LOT of flavors to choose from. Each flavor is very interesting and unique. The staff is very friendly and patient as we try a few flavors to help us arrive at our decision. The ice creams are flavorful and well churned! Definitely a must stop when in Rehoboth Beach. read more

There is something for everyone here, fruity fans, chocolate lovers, experimentalists, cereal stans, and the explorers. This is a consistently busy spot for good reason!

My favorite ice cream ever!! We come almost every weekend in the summer and bring all our family and friends here. It's a super convenient location right off the boardwalk and a few steps from the beach. The homemade flavors are so fun and absolutely delicious. Crack is my personal favoriteservice is pretty quick and the staff is friendly. My only complaint is that they advertise that they have gluten free waffle cones and they NEVER have any when we go. They say they run out quickly during the day but it doesn't make sense to me why they can't just make more? My poor dad gets so excited for the cones and is always disappointed when they don't have any for him. read more

A fun ice cream spot with plenty of flavor options (which could feel a bit overwhelming) and friendly, efficient service. However, it might not be the best choice for vegan ice cream.

I understand this place gets busy during the summer, but that's no excuse for the poor hygiene I witnessed. The staff appeared filthy dirty and were handling cones with their bare hands. One customer asked why their cone was wet, and the employee casually replied it was from their hand -- with no effort to use gloves or tongs. When my turn came, a visibly dirty staff member did the same, and I had to refuse the order. It was concerning from a health standpoint, and I won't be returning. There are plenty of cleaner, more responsible ice cream shops nearby. read more

This ice cream place has tons of flavor options. I had Columbia's coffee and Nutella on a waffle cone. The Nutella flavor was not strong, it tasted like regular chocolate. I definitely tasted the coffee flavor. Free sprinkles topping is a nice perk. I appreciate the plastic cone carrier that helped holding the cone and catcher the drippings.

I tried the booger and the coffee fudge truffle. It was a so so experience. Not much in terms of flavor as the booger just tasted like vanilla ice cream which was ok as I don't think anyone wants an actual booger flavor. The coffee fudge truffle just lacked coffee flavor in the ice cream. For about $8 small, I'd expected better. I'll probably won't return. read more

We went for the special flavors: banana pudding, chocolate chip and cayenne chocolate- lower price at around $4.25 for large, and we liked the flavors anyway (usually close to $7 with so many combinations of flavors to choose from though). The cayenne chocolate had a little spice and chocolate pieces in it. Enjoyed it. Glad they were open when most of the stores were closed around 9pm. Store was busy but the young ladies helping customers were patient. read more

Very busy, all the time. But fast and efficient service. Very good and refreshing but a bit too sweet for me. Got the one scoop lemon sorbet and it was tasty. Wish it was a bit more tart or tangy. Would've loved for a bit more acidity to cut through the pure sweetness. This is coming from someone with a huge sweet tooth! Seems like the lemon sorbet lacked a bit of a lemon flavor. read more

If, like me, you like unique ice cream flavors . . . this is worth fighting your way to a parking spot and then standing in line. Lots of flavor options. Nothing particularly oddly-exotic (I've eaten cricket and sauerkraut ice cream) but lots of unique combinations, including some with bacon and other less common ingredients. Heck yeah! I got the salty caramel truffle. It was fantastic. They let you add your own sprinkles. FREE SPRINKLES! Life is awesome when you have free sprinkles. Let me repeat. FREE SPRINKLES!!! Yes, it's not cheap but you're paying for almost ocean-front property, the massive number of options, the experience, and the sprinkles!!! This is worth a visit every time. read more

Honestly, for the price and the ridiculously long line, this place is not even close to worth it. Pictured is 2 scoops which is really more like 2 1/2 scoops that equal 1 scoop. We got 2 single scoops, 3 2 scoop portions and a milkshake and it came to $50. This is an absolutely wild price. Our family of 6 has gotten icecream at multiple other places and we usually pay $35-$40 for MUCH larger portions. The flavors are gimmicky. There were barely any mix ins in the 2 flavors pictured. Save yourself 45 min in line and nearly $8 for a small portion and go somewhere else. read more

After a post-dinner walk, we stopped in to get some ice cream here. There are sometimes employees who will come out to take orders but it doesn't make sense who they will come out to help. The group behind us had just arrived and immediately had their order taken. For ice cream, I ordered the chocolate chip cookie dough in a waffle cone. The ice cream itself was fine, it was typical and perfect for a summer evening. The waffle cone was trash -- it was undercooked overall but especially on one side where it was completely soft and had a weird texture. I did like that they gave us a waffle cone holder since the ice cream immediately started dripping through. I wouldn't waste the extra money on a waffle cone -- just get a cake cone or opt for the cup. There were two main lines that were long and somewhat chaotic. It's definitely a crowd favorite so be prepared for a lot of people at any time of day. It wasn't too loud, but definitely busy and even when we were walking by earlier in the day it was still busy. Thankfully the line moves at a decent speed since there are a ton of people working behind the counter. read more

Oh. My. Lanta. The flavors -- just nuts. Locally this pace is called "TICS" short for The Ice Cream Store and man is this place good. The line is usually pretty decent - especially at night -- but it's worth the very short wait. They have TONS of flavors -- and by tons I mean well over 50 .. some of them have funny names like "Go Fudge Yourself" or "Crack" or "Better Than Sex". They have your typical flavors but also kick it up a bunch of notches by having a lot of really interesting flavor varieties. If you have a sweet tooth, this is your place. If you don't, read the flavors - you'll get a chuckle! read more

Ahhhh so many choices I couldn't decide! Ended up with a single scoop of the Better than Sex, which was a solid choice. Definitely should have gotten a double, especially when sharing with an 8 month old! Thought it would be overly sweet as it was cake battered ice cream, but it surprisingly wasn't. Enioyed the chunks of cake in the ice cream. Perfect for a hot day, but you have to eat it quickly! Tons of people were standing in front of the store when we arrived. They are mainly checking out the menu to see what to order, so make sure you just step up to the window when you are ready. read more

Omg, I freaking LOVE ice cream. I was so looking forward to trying this place out, because it HAD SO MANY FLAVORS I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF. I had so much difficulty trying to figure out what flavor to pick from, because they were so many options!!!! Not a good place for an indecisive person, haha!! They have so many unique flavors, but I ended up being boring and got the orange creme flavor. Perfect balance between orange and creme. I wanted to get oreo brownie, but wanted a flavor my dog can eat too hahah. Maybe next time I will get that flavor when I come back. My boyfriend got the coconut flavor. When the lady was handing the cup to him, she said how its so delicious and creamy. BOY WAS SHE RIGHT. The coconut flavor was extremely creamy and had good coconut flavor to it. If you love coconut, you will love this!!! I actually ended up liking his flavor over mine. The best part was that it had coconut flakes in it too...YUM. read more

But there are worse problems to have, right? I ended up going with Better Than Sex after tasting that and the Cookie Monster flavors. It was so rich, decadent, and had the perfect amount of chocolate. I also got a $1 off coupon for jumping rope! Just by jumping rope or hula hooping, you could earn a coupon.

Taking this into consideration, I ordered a small soft vanilla ice cream on a cake cone. Knowing that, the ice cream was pretty good. To explain, it was creamy, sweet, and rich. However, the cone was just a pre-packaged cone that was a little stale. Furthermore, the price was steep. To make clear, it cost $6.50 for a small ice cream and they didn't even use homemade cones. In summation, Archie's is a fine place for some ice cream, but it's nothing special.

The portions for most of the food is deceptively large and all scratch recipes. You will be leaving with take-out boxes for sure. The Service was pretty awesome. Last summer, my wife and I discovered First State, which at the time was still new. Dallas was our server the first time that we ate at First State, and then we were lucky enough to have him again this time and he remembered us. Before we could get a word out he said "Hey, welcome back!" like we had been friends for years. BEST SERVER EVER! Extremely attentive without crowding our table. Very knowledgeable. I suspect that that is a reflection of the whole staff. The hostess was pleasant. A bit quiet but pleasant. The bartender, Joel (?), seemed fun and engaging. He welcomed everyone like they were regulars, and really looked like he was enjoying his job. Even the young kid that dropped our food was on point, setting our dishes in the right places without asking. Making sure that we didn't need anything before he left. The whole experience was great. I'm a fan and we will be back. The atmosphere and vibe was fun and relaxing. Not your standard rush to order, eat fast, and "here's your bill" sit down restaurant. The restaurant is very clean and it is open and spacious. The place has that great neighborhood brewpub vibe feel. We LOVED the beer label walls! I want to do that in my man cave! Awesome idea. The large TVs were playing a variety of sports. The music was pretty good. Maybe a touch loud. They have live music that seemed to be setting up as we were leaving. Apparently they have live music every Friday and Saturday. We wish that we could have stayed. Dallas said that the band coming in that night was pretty popular. All in all, First State was a fun, and delicious dining experience. my only criticism would be that it is a bit pricey. I understand that scratch restaurants are going to be more expensive, but charging someone for a small container of sauce seems a little like nickel and dime budgeting. Understandable but not attractive All in all, First State is a great time. Ask for Dallas. He's next level service and you'll leave with a new friend. SEE YOU NEXT YEAR FIRST STATE!!!!

I had one of their dark beers (I think it was a chocolate porter) and my wife had a margarita. The girls wanted something sweet so they got the chocolate cake and a Smores Cheesecake. I think this was their favorite part of the meal because they were slightly reluctant to share. The wait staff were great and very attentive. Overall we had a good experience and would recommend.

Tons and tons of flavors to choose from that you're gonna be stuck being indecisive for a good 5-10minutes... We ended up getting This ish is off the hook, better than sex, booger, zombie, dark chocolate coffee and peanut butter, black raspberry blast. Best flavors were the better than sex and chocolate coffee and peanut butter. I'm subtracting a star because of the 'quickly melting' ice cream we got.... I don't think it was the hottest day ever when we got our scoops, but it seemed like because they kept their fridges open (because of the many orders they had to get through) all the time, the ice cream that got served to me had already melted quite a bit + I'm not a big fan of melted ice cream so I ended up throwing out some amount of the (melted) ice cream. read more

I don't get the hype about this place. Been to lots of ice cream places but this one wasn't great. There was frost all around the ice cream and were flies inside the the containers that they were using. The ice cream tasted old and it just overall wasn't that great. There are much better ice cream places in Rehoboth. And I tried a sample too and it was basically ice and was just gross. I would not go here. From an ice cream lover how can your chocolate ice cream taste not good, old, and be all icy like that. And the flies in the containers, not for me and shouldn't be for you either. read more

My absolute favorite ice cream shop in the entire US! Probably the world actually. So many fun flavors it can get overwhelming. Don't worry, they will let you sample any you want ahead of time. Pretty much there is no 'bad' choice though. Can be crowded during peak season, but for good reason. The wait is worth it, plus it gives you time to choose what flavor you want. read more
