Hidden gem in Wilmington! The ice cream is small batch using the highest quality ingredients. So far I have had both the cookie butter and fire pit s'mores flavors which are fabulous! The staff are all super friendly! The space is welcoming, bright, and super clean. This is now in my top 3 favorite ice cream spots! read more

I'm not sure what all the hype is about. I went once and don't care to go back. It's just over priced ice cream. Nothing special or wonderful about it, really. The inside was clean and the girls working were nice but it's just a small spot inside a strip mall. I can think of a handful of other places that are far better in taste and flavors as well as ambiance. If you live close by and just want to run in to satisfy an ice cream craving I don't think you'll be too disappointed but Market Basket is right there, you could save yourself some money and head to the freezer section over there. read more

Just in time for summer comes this happy shop with yum-o ice cream made on-site. Several tables, brand new space, friendly service, family business. Creative and creamy offerings including Peach, Maple Walnut, and omg Caramel Praline Pecan. So delish on a melty hot afternoon, we forgot to take pics of the ice cream itself!!! :) Plentiful foot traffic at 4pm on a Wednesday in May bodes well for this new year-round entry into the Merrimack Valley's ice cream trail. read more

Uncle John's Ice Creamery - Exterior of Uncle John's Ice Creamery in the Market Basket/TJMaxx plaza - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Wilmington, Massachusetts

Ice cream was very high quality and delicious. Best I've had in a while. Located in the Wilmington plaza. The owner John was very personable and kind. Great energy all around. 10/10 recommend. Only suggestion is adding OPEN to the foldable signage outside. When driving by because of tinted windows and sun cancelling out the illuminated sign. It looks closed but inside is bright and very clean. I offer this suggestion so others know they can come in and have such enjoyable experience like we did. read more

Uncle John's Ice Creamery - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Wilmington, Massachusetts

Filling a much needed void in the town of Wilmington... Uncle John's is hands-down one of the best local ice cream spots around. The ice cream itself is creamy, rich, and bursting with flavor, and with a rotating selection of creative flavors, there's always something new and exciting to try. It's not just the dairy options that shine- their dairy-free offerings are seriously impressive and far more plentiful (and delicious) than what you'll find at places like Richardson's. The shop has a bright, clean, and welcoming atmosphere that makes it a pleasure to visit. The service is consistently fantastic, and the owner is a genuinely personable guy who clearly takes pride in the recipe he's created. Prices are very reasonable, especially considering the quality. For a while it seemed the nearby BBQ place (Code 1) would be the hit of the famous Wilmington Rt-38 plaza that also is home to Market Basket. But as it plays out... Uncle John's takes the crown. Make sure to check them out! read more

Ice cream is suuuuuper sweet and not that flavorful. Unfortunately half of mine went to the trash. read more

Uncle John's Ice Creamery - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Wilmington, Massachusetts

A great new addition in the New England Ice Cream tradition. We live a short walk away from another locally owned shop in Reading but had to make the drive to try Uncle John's. An interesting menu with something for the traditional, kids and flavor seekers. I had to try a traditional flavor (chocolate) a nice Ghirardelli flavor. Smooth, very creamy and GREAT. We also had a Tiramisu, which was thoroughly enjoyed. Friendly, family owned Definitely worth a treat. read more

The biscoff cookie butter ice cream was the best ice cream I tasted in my life. Not even exaggerating!

I have gone numerous times to have their coffee oreo and black raspberry and its far more tastier and creamy than other places in surrounding towns. My wife also gets Peanut Butter ice cream and said it tasted like real peanut butter vs. Artificial flavor. We found out from the owner John that all their ice cream is homemade and made from scratch and they do switch up favors to try and appeal to new customers vs. Just vanilla, chocolate, strawberry. My father-in-law tried the coconut ice cream once and said it was the best he's ever had and highly recccomend it. Service is great as well. I reccomend coming here and would absolutely reccomend the flavors I posted above. read more

Ice cream was unbelievably good. The folks there are also warm and welcoming. I will definitely be back!

Uncle John's is by far the best ice cream in the area. Cookie butter flavor is top-notch. Ordered Apple Pie ice cream pie for Thanksgiving. It was absolutely delightful. read more

Reese's pb cup ice cream hot fudge sundae was enjoyable, little heavy on the fudge which melted the ice cream some. Also had tiramisu which was okay, I didn't love but my partner liked it. Little smaller than average sizes read more

Tried Uncle John's for the first time tonight and we enjoyed it! I am a big coffee oreo fan so I gave that one a try and was definitely impressed. The chocolate oreo cone is also a must try! There was a great variety of icecream flavors with something for everyone. Next time I'll try the icecream flight! read more

Uncle John's is the best ice cream!! I got the Snickers ice cream. Not only candy chunks but the ice cream was also Snickers! Great place to stop after grocery shopping at MB. My kiddos love it here! Great service & the place is always spotless! read more

Great new ice cream shop in Wilmington! I've been a few times now and I attempt to try a new flavor each time but the Banana Pudding has become one of my faves. First time I tried a flight of 4 (8 is avail too). Great way to try multiple flavors. Check it out as it is a nice clean shop with several tables to hang at for a bit or grab a pint to go. read more

See all

Awesome ice cream. We tried flights of ice cream. Our favorites were banana pudding, mango, reese's peanut butter cup, and red velvet oreo. read more

Best icecream place around! Not only are the flavors fun and tasty but there toppings are fantastic too! They have a "flight" of 4 kiddie sized icecream flavors of your choice! Which i think is a great option for first timers like myself, today! And at a decent price of $10! Service was extremely friendly and efficient! They also have a card that you can stamp every-time you go and after the 8th visit you spin a wheel with a variety of prize options! read more

No pictures to show cuz I ate it all but new favorite ice cream spot around. Family owned, small batch and made with care. Some interesting flavors that really taste like the descriptions. Service was awesome so friendly. The owner is also fantastic and even checked in with us and made sure everything was perfect. Id put them in league with Holy Cow if you know that means this is a serious ice cream spot. Id say probably the best service at an ice cream spot ive ever had. Wow! read more

I grew up in Wilmington and we'd go to Friendly's at the plaza for ice cream. Today, in the Wilmington Plaza there is an old fashion ice cream shop. A place where you can take the family out for an ice cream and not break the bank. The sundaes for $7.25 (one size) are piled high with scoops of homemade ice cream made fresh, topped with many choices of toppings. I could only eat half of it! Another popular ice cream shop in Burlington charges double for less a serving. The owner stood outside on the sidewalk, greeting every customer and thanking them for their business, with a sincere "please come again". Come on folks, let's give this family run business as much love as we did for our beloved Friendly's. You won't be disappointed! read more

Plenty of flavors to choose from. Quick service and delicious ice cream. Wish I saw the flight option sooner so I could've tried more, next time! read more

Visited for first time today with my daughter. The cookie butter ice cream is delicious!

Uncle John had a plan! It's not only Blueberry Muffin ice cream--it's just like the muffin. This flavor has cake. Fresh, juicy New England blueberries (made evident by the natural coloring). And sparkling sugar crystals that capture the crunch of a Blueberry Muffin top. Uncle John's Blueberry Muffin ice cream is a gleeful reverence to the classic Sunday morning muffin. read more

Great homemade ice cream! I went during a busy time, but there were many workers scooping ice cream so it was very quick. Can't wait to try more flavors. read more

Staff is very nice but more importantly the ice cream is possible the best I've ever had. Go here often

Came in for the first time during the chilly Memorial Day weekend and we were definitely not the only ones there! The ice cream was delicious and super creamy - you can tell that they use quality ingredients. We tried the peanut butter cup and the black raspberry. The peanut butter cup was filled with pb cups and had a great peanut butter flavor. The raspberry was light but had the perfect amount of raspberry flavor. The owner was there and was very friendly, stopping to ask us how it was and chatting for a few minutes. The only thing we wished we had done differently was get the flight so we could try more flavors because everything we had was so good! We even stopped to grab a pint on our way out so we could take some home. We are so excited to have this yummy new ice cream shop so close by and will definitely be back! read more
