    String/hair we found in our ice cream.

    Ice cream is delicious, but finding a hair/string in our ice cream definitely put a bad taste in our mouth, no pun intended.

    This is a very cute ice cream shop in Metuchen. They have a ton of flavors! I had banana Oreo and cookie dough. I can not say I'm a fan. I felt like my ice cream was lacking in flavor but I'd try out other flavors from the shop. My son really enjoyed his ice cream. The staff were very patient and kind.

    Good flavors!! This place has been in business since I was a kid and I've always wanted to try it. Really nice to see it's still here and thriving. Def will be back if in the area

    Black raspberry and white chocolate raspberry swirl / fluffer nutter
    Yasmine G.

    The staff were friendly and the service was quick. Some of the best ice cream in the area- we got cones with the black raspberry, fluffer nutter, and white chocolate raspberry swirl. The fluffer nutter- marshmallow ice cream with peanut butter was our favorite. And very reasonably priced compared to other ice cream shops. Will definitely be back soon!

    Great experience here. Tons of ice cream flavors to choose from and very reasonably priced. The young servers were very friendly and efficient...kudos to them. Conveniently located right on Main Street with lots of street parking in the immediate area. Lots of food options in the area as well...this is a great post-dinner dessert option.

    What's the Scoop is the local ice cream spot in Metuchen. They have over 70 flavors of ice cream made in small batches plus soft serve. The amount of flavors can be overwhelming but the staff is knowledgeable. They can also make milkshakes, floats, and a much of other things. I tried the chocolate peanut butter ice cream which was great. Creamy chocolate ice cream paired with frozen peanut butter is almost always a homerun.

    Delicious ice cream!! Truly that homemade taste and quality. Friendly service and a splendid assortment of flavors. Their ice cream cake prices are also very reasonable and a perfect addition to the any party. I called a few weeks in advance for the cake and it was a hit with everyone. Definitely a gem in the neighborhood.

    Cute shop on main street. LOTS of flavors to choose from all made in house. A good variety of vegan ice creams as well. Anything from Mexican Chocolate to Banana Oreo. I got the Lemon Blueberry Shortbread. It was good. The right amount of tang and big pieces of shortbread cookies. Lots of seating. Polite, friendly service.

    Ice cream is my favorite thing to have for dessert, (well, actually it's my favorite lunch too) and I am picky about quality. The ice cream here is top tier! I've been here a bunch of times and try different flavors every time. I love their classic flavors like chocolate and vanilla, and their more unusual and creative combinations too. The staff here has good energy! They're always friendly and helpful. It's small and clean and comfortable inside and there's outdoor sidewalk seating too. It's on the pricy side but totally worth it for the high quality.

    One of my loves is ice cream, it's like my kryptonite! I love mom and pop style ice cream joints because they are usually tastier! I got their blend in with chocolate ice cream and reeces pieces & peanut butter cup!! It was as delicious as it looked! I will definitely be back!!

    2 scoops of butter pecan with no sugar added

    I dropped by on a weekday afternoon. This place was not busy at all. I ordered 2 scoops of coffee espresso and 2 scoops of butter pecan with no sugar added. Very small containers, counter guy gave me kids size which I didn't ask for. I just noticed it when I got home and saw my bill. But still pricey for $3.28 each kid's cup before tax. Next time, I will go to Ice Cream House instead.

    Chocolate and vanilla fudge crunch

    Amazing service. Cake was the highlight of my son's 10th birthday. Thank you so much for everything . Ordering online and pickup was so easy.

    This was EVERYTHING that I wanted. Due to timing, my partner and I got ice cream before dinner... maybe you could call it a cold appetizer I just completed Phase 2 of 75Hard, and I was on a keto/paleo food plan. To have non keto ice cream... can't beat it. I had a scoop of s'mores and moose tracks (vanilla ice cream with peanut butter cups). My partner had a scoop of strawberry cheesecake- very very generous scoop (basically two scoops!).

    This restaurant came highly recommended by a great friend, so when I was thinking of a place to…read moretake my amazing daughter for her birthday, this was my first choice and I'm happy to report it did not disappoint. Service was tied with the food for first place! Starting with the friendly and helpful hostess, every single employee offered a greeting and a smile. Our server was Elijah, he was wonderful! Warm, friendly and professional. He was attentive and perceptive. He didn't hover but anytime we needed he re-appeared. We were greeted by two out of the three managers, 10 out of 10. Now for the food! We ordered the rice balls, maple wings a Pepper pig pizza and for my cocktail I had the blue Hawaiian. Every thing was delicious hot and freshly made. The outside and inside are visually appealing. I would describe it as modern meets industrial with a nice dose or rustic, very nice.

    I would never return…read more The service was terrible from start to finish. They brought out the appetizers and entrées at the same time, leaving our table completely overcrowded with plates. To make matters worse, a server took away one of the pizza trays while my dad was still actively eating from it--I'm not exaggerating. It was only 9:04 PM, and we were simply finishing our meal before leaving. On top of that, I ordered the Bucatini, and it was severely overcooked. My mom ordered another pasta that also wasn't good. Overall, a very disappointing dining experience with poor service and subpar food.
