Reviews of The Ice Cream Machine Co
The portions are a good size. The flavors are good. The service from those taking/fulfilling orders is good.
I think there are things that should be looked at to improve, though. The lines, when long, go into the parking lot and right into/in-between people's parking spaces. When we were last there we were between cars when one of the cars left and another pulled in. An attempt was made to mitigate the safety by calling for people to enter the store (where they have 1 register - the rest are windows outside) but this did not decrease the lines by much and blocking off those spaces would be the safer option (enough people already park across the street that losing a couple more parking spaces to make things safer wouldn't make much of an impact on business).
The other thing I would suggest would be a queue line. It's currently set up that each window has it's own line and the lines of course move at different paces. A single line leading to the next available window might work better, especially if the previous suggestion is adopted.
Excellent ice cream. Many choices of ice cream, sorbet and frozen yogurt. There are benches to sit at and a town park directly across the street to take a walk or picnic at.
This was our first time here and couldn't believe all the flavor choices.
I ordered chocolate peanut butter cup yogurt cookie sandwich and was given chocolate peanut butter chip ice cream. It was melted and didn't stay inside the cookies. If the lines were not so long I would have said something to the girl about messing up the order. Other than that the ice cream is good!
Went for the first time on a Saturday evening. Long wait, about 30 min, parking lot jam packed. Ice cream was good but I couldn't eat it all. We got peanut butter with oreo and birthday bash, cones on top. I wanted a PB milk shake but those aren't on the menu. Don't bring a large vehicle/dually if you want to easily park and not almost get backed into several times. Had to assist multiple people backing up to leave.🙄🤦🏼♀️
If you want to taste fresh ice cream like straight out of the factory then you have come to the right place. They make and sell their own ice cream here not like some other fake ice cream joint that buy from other local companies.
Don't get tempted to try every flavor. Their ice cream are actually not healthy due to it's high fat content. It will kill you in the long run so consume in moderation. Or hit the gym right away to burn it off.
This place is awesome!!! Long wait but definitely worth it. Over 80 flavors including seasonal choices. The chocolate dipped jumbo waffle cone with key lime pie and coconut chocolate almond ice cream were to die for. This ice cream shop is one of the best!
This is a fun spot in Diamond Hill State Park. Theres plenty of parking and the servings are BIG! I come here with my dog at least once a week. I usually get a small waffle cone and my puppy gets a " Puppy paws scoop" we love it.l!
Lots of flavors to choose from (and believe me, I’ve tried LOTS of them). Portions are a good size and the order takers are very friendly. I’ve been to lots of ice cream shops, but this is the only one around that makes my favorite - ginger!
First time I went. Had the monster ice cream. Awesome!!!
We discovered the Ice Cream Machine when we lived here years ago. I love coming back to visit the area and enjoying ice cream year round. It rivals the ice cream we get fresh on the farm in Amish country in Lancaster Co. It's so popular they now have an inside counter for ordering with fudge too. Oh so yummy. We discovered that the small was too large for each of us. We should have all ordered kiddie sizes.
Great local ice cream, at least 30-40 flavors…had the chocolate PB chip…yummy!!
I love to get ice cream here! ICM always has quality ice cream and friendly employees. Whenever I want to get ice cream this is one of first choices. The portions they give out are always very generous and I almost always have leftovers, even when I get a kiddie!! I love the fact that there are always plenty of options for both ice cream and toppings. Although the waits can be long the ice cream is well worth it! If I could give this place more than five stars I would!
Obsessed with this place!! They have so many flavors that I want to try and a good selection of toppings, cones, and other desserts. I've driven out of my way 30 mins to come here and even though it's always packed, the wait is never too long! Even if it was, I'd still be happy to wait!
So good. I got a waffle bowl sundae with coconut chocolate almond and s'mores. It was so good. My husband has the pistachio ice cream and loved it. The scoops are huge! the girl taking care of our order was so kind. Highly recommend!
This a great spot to get ice cream. They have a large selection of flavors! I've brought my autistic sister here a few times now, and each time we come, we see if we can try a different flavor! :) The only complaint I have is their parking is a bit tight, but if you come on a quiet day, then you shouldn't have a problem. It is nice that they are open year round.
Love this place. So many flavors to choose from, there is something for everyone here. Affordable. Lots of lanes, they serve you as quickly as you can. Plenty of parking across the street.
Best ice cream in RI. I've been coming here in the summer on and off for nearly 30 years. As a kid I remember being super excited that they had real, full sized chocolate chips instead of cheap shaved chocolate in their ice cream. They still do, and the toppings and mixed in candy are always great quality. It gets a little crowded in the summer and there tend to be a lot of mosquitoes, but it is still worth the 20 minute drive from my house. That is saying a lot in a state so small.
An unassuming little shop tucked away on Route 114 next to Diamond Hill State Park, the Ice Cream Machine produces predictable favorites (Butter Crunch, Cookie Dough, Caramel Fudge) and wild flavors (Purple Cow, Birthday Cake, Green Tea) with a dynamite texture since 1977. The shop is also locally famous for their wholesale ice cream cakes, pies, brownies, and cookies.
Best ice cream and service in Rhode Island! I had a purple cow in a giant waffle cone and my wife enjoyed a peanut butter ice cream sundae with hot fudge! So good!🍨🙏❤❤❤ …
Good my friends if you want ice cream 🍨 ice cream you have to come they have all kind of flavors I'm telling you is good ice cream very friendly good size parking lot and a cross is diamond hill My family and I we come here for years we love it you know why because taste like ice cream should be taste and they have all kind of flavors 😋👍👌🍨
The Salted Caramel Pretzel Sundae is phenomenal!!! The lines are long and I think we had a newer worker because people who came after us and were in different lines were out before us. That being said she was super sweet and the ice cream is worth the wait!!
My all time favorite ice cream shop. They have a super wide variety of flavors, all of which are homemade. Their servings are also HUGE. A medium is as big as my face. A couple years ago they added on a candy shop that sells fudge and it’s just as delicious as the ice cream. I believe they started accepting credit/debit cards around that time. They’ve made it a lot easier to go there on a whim if you’re like me and don’t usually carry cash. I really think everyone in the area should try The Ice Cream Machine if they haven’t already. Take a peek in the candy shop too if you can.
Edit: Their pumpkin ice cream is the absolute best. A lot of places do pumpkin spice and call it pumpkin but theirs is actually pumpkin. They also have amazing ginger ice cream. ❤️
ICM is like no other. Not only is their ice cream far above all other ice creams in the region, their service goes above and beyond. The staff is warm and friendly, and makes you feel like family. Everything here is homemade and fresh. I know I’m getting the best ingredients and flavors.
The ICM staff is one that never stops smiling. I can’t wait for the hot weather to bring in plenty of excuses to get ice cream from Ice Cream Machine.
Come here, you will not be disappointed!
I also would like to especially thank Ally who helped me pick out a pie recently. I was very torn on which direction to go but she advised me through the process!
Delicious ice cream with generous portions! Long lines but they always have lots of people working hard
Enjoyed the cup of Caramel Sea Salt ice cream I got there in the middle of a long bike ride. Picnic table was shaded and clean. Sorry that they didn’t have food also - but they’re not called The Hot Dog Machine for a reason…
A little expensive, not a huge gluten free choice on "different" flavors but very goid homemade ice cream!
Service was fast. Coconut ice cream was good. My son liked his dinosaur crunch. My daughter was not too crazy about the smores ice cream. Nice place to get ice cream on a hot day.
Wow, what a great find.....easy to get to,plenty of parking(across the street) and truly delicious smooth and creamy home made ice cream.
My family loves this place. The ice cream is homemade, and they have a lot of flavors. They also offer sorbet, sherbet, frozen yogurt, sundaes, cookie sandwiches, and more. They have a small store with other food, etc. They even have ice cream cups just for dogs! Ever wonder why there are always people there? Because they are one of the best ice cream shops around!
A small size ice cream is huge! Large variety of flavor, plenty of places to sit and decent prices. Pr go in and try the ice cream cakes to go, thank me later.
Cute place. Smells so good inside. Nice outside seating. Good treats and lots of variety of ice cream flavors.
The ice cream was very good and they have a fast system for serving. There is a seemingly endless number of flavors. The kiddie size is huge for being the smallest one. I can't imagine a single or double scoop. I will have to return to try more flavors.
Small cute place reasonably priced nice sitting area and all there flavors omg idk what to pick everytime we go there sundae are huge and delicious
Very good ice cream great assortment! Longer lines but moved fluently.
I stayed in Cumberland for 2 years and going to this place on a summer evening was one of my most fav thing to do. It’s not so much about ice cream but the experience! Love watching people come with their families here and enjoying a good scoop of ice cream. Too bad summer lasts only a few months in RI 😥 but I hope some day I would bring my whole family here and we’d sit outdoor and enjoy some ice cream :)
This is a town favorite! I've been visiting The Ice Cream Machine since I was a kid and it's still a great place to visit. Parking in the actual lot can be tricky during peak hours, but luckily it sits directly across from Diamond Hill Park, so you can park across the street and walk over. Go try their homemade ice cream and enjoy some time at the park.
Nice and friendly staff, reasonable prices, good outdoor seating, huge selection of homemade ice cream choices. I had the mint oreo and it was fantastic. The portion sizes are very generous. If you like ice cream, this place is a must visit, where-ever you live.
I love their ice cream most if not all come with special treats in them. For example my favorite flavor coconut has real flakes. My sons favorite bubble gum has real gum pieces throughout it and generous portions are served. I get the kiddie size which is two LARGE scoops! They have so many flavors and different items like smoothies and shakes too! They also have a candy shop where they sell candy and fudge. Just great tasting treats!
I was visiting from SC and hadn't been here since I was a young girl. The place has grown and still just as awesome as I can remember. Although the young girls working acted like everyone in line annoyed them, the ice cream is still the best n worth the trip.
My favorite ice cream flavor in the entire world resides at this fine establishment. Service was impeccable. Portion size given the price was perfect. If you are ready to start finally living...try Purple Cow ice cream at The Ice Cream Machine!
Great ice cream and friendly employees! Very generous portions, too. Mine pictured are mediums.
The ice cream is homemade & absolutely delicious! Many varieties to choose from & pleasant cashiers! We go several times every summer. They also have delicious ice cream cakes!
Great icecream!! Good prices!! Friendly staff!! Lots of flavors and great Sunday selections. Highly recommend!! Open year round in an area where we had a hard time finding an open icecream shop.
One thing to note... this is pretty much in the middle of nowhere... they have no public restrooms. We had a 3 year old desperate for a bathroom and nowhere to go.
So many choices! We stopped by on a Sunday evening and were fortunate there was a short break in the lines as we studied the options. I had a lemon frozen yogurt cup that was excellent. The small cup was a generous serving of just the right mix of tangy and sweet.
Great ice cream variety and good taste too. Price and service excellent .
Fortunate to have a great icecream place 5 minutes away!
Best caramel ice cream ever, amazing cones, great serving sizes, my husband and I continue to rank this among our favorite ice cream places - though sea salt caramel got less salty.
Standing in the line we were able to decide what flavors of ice cream. The line moved rather quickly for such a warm day. Was not able to take a photo of the selection as once I started eating, I could not stop.
Well worth the visit and the time in the line, if you have interest in homemade ice cream.
Amazing homemade ice cream. Prices are fair for the portions. (I'm a good eater and a small cone is enough for me - though I tend to get a kiddie since I usually have to finish my daughters' too!). In fact, you'll pay more at places that aren't even homemade.
I only give four stars since, while most flavors are great (pumpkin and ginger are my favorite), some fall short (s'mores, for example).
More flavors than you can shake a stick at... consistently great
I haven't been here in 25 years, so it was great to see the Ice Cream Machine was still around and just as good as ever. Had a great time brining my wife and son there, and I got a nice dose of nostalgia. Still the best ice cream around.
Wonderful ice cream choices! A must if you haven't checked out the great fall flavors! The employees were very kind and courtesies!
Home made ice cream. My favorite ice cream is newport creamery, but the ice cream machine is very good too. About 50 flavors and ice cream pies to take home. Across the street from diamond hill state park.
I have been coming to this gem as long as I can remember, and so as not to date myself, I've been coming here for 30 years now!! The ice cream is phenomenal; I've never gotten a flavour I didn't love! The portions are incredibly generous, and the menu is huge! The Blondie sundae is a personal favorite of mine, but on really hot summer days, the orange sherbet may be simple, but it's refreshing and full of natural orange flavor!! I couldn't recommend the Ice Cream Machine any more highly than I already do!! Enjoy!!!
First time there and it was very very good! And the prices were lower than what I thought!
I had the Key Lime pie sundae on the special board, it was great. It had pineapple sauce, graham cracker crust, coconut, Key Lime ice cream. My wife had chocolate sundae lots of hot fudge and whipped cream. My son had the cotton candy shake, he said it was great, it was nice and thick. Overall, we loved everything we ordered, we will be going back.
Ice cream was awesome, only issue was home made waffle cones weren't made right. The bottom of the 3 we had were really open at the bottom. Ice cream dripping everywhere lol. But I'll try it again and see if that happens again. If it does I just won't get the home made waffle cone.
I don’t review any places. But now i had to because the chocolate explosion here really exploded my mind
This is an awesome place to grab ice cream. There are a lot of flavors to choose from. I really liked the coffee oreo one. The quantity of ice cream you get is also a lot.
The best ice cream around! No question! The most ice cream flavors I have ever seen!
My absolute favorite local ice cream place
I have been going here for years even before my 7 year old was born. I bring all our family a friends when we can. It is consistently the very best ice-cream and worth traveling to. It is the best destination for the sunniest days of the year.
Awesome ice cream. A lot of flavors to choose from. Great renovation in the last 4 months. Take a look inside at their fudge and home made pies and cakes. You can purchase different candy by the bag full. The outside is nice. Plenty of picknic tables to sit on. Parking is a little tight during busy season but we'll worth the wait.
I hadn’t been here in a long time, and frankly I had forgotten about it, until one of the people my wife works with mentioned it, and since we were up in the area, we decided to try it.
It was good, not the best, but definitely very good. Probably in the top 10 ice cream that I’ve had, and I’ve had a lot of ice cream.
It’s the typical walk up to the window and order your poison, kind of place. They did have s room full of candy, which I did not bother to go in, as my mission on. Y last visit was purely for ice cream, but I may have to go back to check it out.
The shake that I got was good, although they did not blend the banana enough, and it all sunk to the bottom, and clogged up the straw. I cannot fault them for that, as it is a common occurrence.
My wife is not the biggest fan of ice cream, but she did finish the few scoops she got, so it has to be pretty good.
Great ice cream, so many flavors. A+ Service. Love that they're open year-round.
They should show sizes. Got my Aunt a small cone. Which anywhere else would be considered a medium. Needless to say. Most of it got tossed... Fudge had no flavor. I bought one piece of PB fudge... Disappointed.
The flavors are unbelievable and each visit is always a pleasure. The staff is polite and very generous with the ice cream. They make wonderful Sundays and the ice cream cakes are delicious. They have a small candy store now and you can use a credit card!
You're better off parking across the street in Diamond Hill Park!
Very good Ice cream. The price isn't bad. Nice staff. There is a covered seating area. I've heard that parking and lines can get long sometimes.
Been coming here my whole life and it remains one of my favorite ice cream stops. The selection of ice cream is huge and there are quite a few yogurt flavors to choose from as well. Only issue is that the parking lot is cramped and gets full quickly, but if you find an off hour it's well worth it.
Taste of ice cream are good, although pina colada drink was okay. Parking and cleanliness in parking area is well maintained. Very nice spot for ice cream but still need some more yummy taste and quantity .... menu is greatly showed up liked the colorful theme.
Best ice cream, very dense and thick, and so delicious. My kids and I ordered sea salt caramel ice cream, and cotton candy. Made with real flavors, even the caramel. No bite was left, it was that awesome. We got medium bowls with a cone on top, and we were full. Plan to wait in line tho.
Love the ice cream here!! So many flavors and toppings to choose from! Bit on the pricey side..but worth it. Staff is always nice and fast.
Stopped here after spending some time at the park running the F.I.T. Challenge race. Got a peantubutter banana chocolate shake. It was delicious and the large was the perfect size. Staff was very friendly. Outside seating area was clean and organized. I'll definitely stop here next time I am in town. Prices were right where I expect them to be for a family run ice cream shop.
This place is the real deal! The locations sits off busy Diamond Hill Road and doesnt have the parking lot to contain the crowds that visit this place so you will have to park across the street near the recreation fields. It doesnt look like much and is a smaller stand but has like 5 windows. Small attached candy store as well with fresh fudge, you may pass by this if you don't pay attention it is so small.
The flavors and sundaes that litter this menu are awesome and creative and some of the best I have seen from any place around, so many choices and new ones every week according to the menu, tons of toppings and even creative shakes and drinks. No wonder people drive for miles to come here. The ice cream served here is creamy and tastes great, had a smores sundae and it was huge and every bite was excellent. Prices are decent and staff is pretty fast. This place earns its reputation as one of the best ice cream stands around.
Great selection and many picnic tables to sit and eat your ice cream. More parking across the street
Great ice cream, many homemade flavors, and lots of choices are gluten free!
The selection is wonderful and they also have a candy store and fudge. It was packed because of how good the ice cream was. The parking is tight but you can park across the street and walk over. They also have outdoor seating available. Great place to bring the children or even a date.
Always the best ice cream and service. Amazing flavor options and toppings. You can't go wrong with a hike to the top of Diamond Hill and a Diamond Hill sundae to end the day!
Great quality Ice Cream. Family owned and a great atmosphere. Staff is always delightful. Ice Cream tastes good. Portion sizes are really big. That is my only concern as even a Kiddie size seems to be way big especially when you are trying to manage the weight. Tad expensive but taste and experience makes it a must visit place. Diamond Hill Park nearby in case you decide to burn your calories right after or right before visiting Ice Cream Machine.
Big servings, amazing ice cream, really awesome service. If you like ice cream, this is the place to go.
Only place I can get Ginger ice cream and it is soooo good
My favorite since childhood. So many great memories but even today when I bring my own kids we always have a great experience. The ice cream flavors and quality cannot be matched. The only downside is the parking situation. There arent enough spots on the property and it is a busy road to cross with little ones.
The prices are a little high even though portions are big. Hugely popular with the locals. Great variety of flavors. I didn't like my hot apple sundae because the apple crisis was buried underneath too much icecream so that by the time I ate down to it, the crisp was very diluted and barely recognizable. And then the icecream had caramel and cinnamon and sugar so it was kind of too sweet. I generally like the icecream cones I get here.
Fantastic taste. Good portions. Parking is little tough but worth waiting.
Great ice cream and be careful, there portion sizes are big! I had a small that was like a medium. Would never have finished a medium. Not a complaint at all, just wouldn't want to waste such great ice cream.
Their ice cream is fantastic and so many flavors. Sadly, no soft serve.
Best place for ice creams comparing to the ice cream chains (Cold Stone Creamery/JP Licks etc). The ice cream doesn't melt that easily and become watery like most other. Price is decent (Small cup starts from 4.19) and quantity you get is definitely more than anywhere else for the sizes. There are around 30-40 flavours to choose from. It also server milkshakes. Recently they have opened a small pastry section too (candies, fudge etc). They do accept cards now over the counter. You dont have to go for the ATM to withdraw cash. Must visit place in summer.
Great ice cream for a good price. It's always busy during the good summer days, so be ready for a line. They also have a sweets shop where they sell candy and fudge. I'd recommend a look inside!
If you're looking for handmade ice cream and large portions, this place fits the bill. Never disappointed by the large flavor offerings and the quality of their products. They accept cash only and do have an ATM on site. However, there aren't any restrooms. That can be tough so make sure you go before arriving.
Even on this 30 degree day, hopes and promises of spring come alive with the Ice Cream Machine's ice cream! The unique flavors (ginger and mudslide crunch were our choices today) made us sit and smile while we savoured every bite! Thank you!! 🌞 …
If you are here on a summer night expect long lines. The ice cream here is homemade and worth the wait. They have dozens of choices in flavors and treats. Friendly staff. The kiddie size is like a regular for most ice cream shops. It's huge and plenty of ice cream for one person.
Update: the kiddie size changed to about a quarter the size that it used to be.
Many,many flavors of ice cream frozen yogurt, sorbet and sugar free ice cream They even have fall flavors,like pumpkin,apple crisp, caramel apple and others. Great homemade ice cream!!🍦 …
Large portions of some incredible ice cream. Nice, quaint place with down to earth people. Definitely worth the drive if you're visiting Boston or live in New England. Super creamy and thick Ice cream right off Diamond Hill Rd (Rte 114).
I love the Ice Cream Machine! It's usually one of my favorites, but I felt a little ripped off in our recent visit. The sizes here are known to be waaaay bigger than you think so I ordered a small for myself and my husband. I got a coffee oreo but ended up receiving a mint oreo (I think that was due to the mask interfering what I said) regardless, what we got was a sad tiny scoop in a cup covered with a waffle cone. We also ordered chocolate jimmies and they were lacking as well. To top it all off the cones were stale! Needless to say the 40 minute drive was NOT worth it this time around. I guess we'll wait for covid-19 to be over to go again.
The best ice cream hands down. Prices are great and the portions are big. Many flavors to choose from as well
Amazing array of flavors and toppings! My seasonal favorites are blueberry ice cream and apple ice cream. The lines sometimes appear long but they always go by quickly.
Excellent ice cream place.
The good:
Good family environment
Excellent quality
Ton of flavors to choose from
Bad:
Cash only (atm onsite but 4 dollar fee)
Wait times. If it's a hot day out expect to wait in line for a while
Depending on your budget and party size their prizes could be considered high
It's a treat and if you have cash on you and arent pressed for time, go for it, it's delicious.
I don't usually write reviews, but as someone who goes to ice cream places all around the country, this is one of the best if not the best ever. I don't try every single flavor , but the ones I try are exceptional, especially coconut chocolate almond. Sometimes if you get ice cream off-season in the middle of winter the ice cream is not quite as fresh but still great . If you go during the busy season it's amazing. The girls working behind the counter are always quick and friendly, although when it's crowded it does take a while but that is only indicative it was a good place and people know it. To the person who said Tiny portions you must be really fat, the portions are huge and if you want more than that there must have issues. To the person who said it's busy and it's a while to order, that's because it's good. To those who complain about the parking again if it wasn't good it wouldn't be crowded.
Went in during a rain storm and was pleased to be under a wonderful canopy. The ice cream was good and we were able to sit under the canopy on a clean picnic table. Afterwards we went inside to the attached candy shop and checked out the many "penny" candy jars. Parking is limited but there is ample parking across the street at Diamond Hill. I am sure we will try this place again.
Super rich and creamy ice cream (one of the few IC establishments that still use butter fat, according to a conversation I had with the owner), with a huge selection of flavors, as well as no-sugar-added lines, sherbets, and sorbets. Five service lines (they finally painted and numbered the lines!) so even at the busiest hours the wait isn't dreadful. Homemade(of course) ice cream cakes are also available. A decent amount of parking with plenty of spillover in the lot across the road. And of course the friendly service makes it all the more pleasant. Expensive? Yep, but only slightly higher than other places, and an exponentially superior product. We no longer live in Cumberland, but we regularly take the trip there just for the Ice Cream Machine.
So many great flavors I have a hard time deciding. My favorite ice cream 🍦 is peppermint stick and I love how they always have it! …
A childhood staple! Been going here since I was born. They lost a star because they always get my ice cream flavor wrong. Asked for Mint Chocolate Chip Waffle Cone Sundae, got vanilla with giant chocolate chip pieces, still good just not what i asked for.
Great ice cream. Lots of selection. Their Sundays are awesome.
Great spot for homemade ice cream! Loved the cotton candy! The portions are huge, so be ready to share (or not)! Friendly staff and a great little candy and fudge shop!
Kiddie size is perfect for my husband and I like the small, that's 1and half large scoops 😀😋 …
Great homemade ice cream, had a banana split,best split I've had in 20 years and reasonable price and fast and courteous service,try it you won't be diappointed
Scoop scoop scoop it up! This place is the BOMB dot com. I love the Oreo flavors and the peanut butter cup ice cream, it's homemade and the pricing is pretty standard for good ice cream!
You can't go wrong here, but it looks like it gets crazy busy in the hot weather so plan ahead!
A great place to indulge a love for ice cream. The flavors I have had have been good, and they have many to pick from. The servings are generous. It can be busy and there is limited parking.
A favorite place since I was a little girl riding up 120 on the back of my dad's motorcycle. Now it's all fancy lookin' with the candy shops & upgrades and now I'm making new memories with my sister and our kids! Wild. Unlimited amount of delicious flavors, your cotton candy in particular rocks my world.
Great homemade ice cream, tons of variety. Outdoor seating, mostly in shadey area or under cover. After their recent renovation, they now have an indoor register and a small candy store with a wall of candy and homemade fudge. They take cash, credit, and check, but they no longer have an ATM.
Long lines. Great variety of ice cream flavors. Prices reasonable. Good size portions
A little on the pricier side but worth it. Portions are big so I tend to get a kiddie size and it's more than enough. Love that it's open all year round.
Pretty good ice cream. I will say that their ice cream is pretty big so I really wouldn't recommend more than two scoops which was more than enough for me. Also there isn't any soft serve here not even chocolate and vanilla. They also have a pretty wide variety of ice cream flavors
They have mango sorbet on their menu, I ordered mango sorbet and raspberry. Once I left with my ice cream to my car to avoid crowding and contamination of coronavirus I went to eat my ice cream and it's orange and raspberry sorbet. They didn't ask or tell me if they ran out of mango but instead just substituted for themselves which is inconsiderate and I could've been allergic.
so this disappointing poor decision could've caused anyone harm without meaning and left me disappointed.
Delicious! So many flavors to choose from. Their low fat ice cream is even delicious. They also have a great selection of ice cream pies that I'm looking forward to trying!
Best ice cream around! The family loves this spot. Great staff! I highly recommend it. Homade ice cream people. The seasonal flavors are awesome! I see an ice cream cake in my future. Oh mama!
A large variety of yummy home-made ice cream! Servings are big, and there are many offerings like regular cones, waffle cones, cups, frappes, sundaes, banana spilts, etc. My favorite is the white chocolate chip ice cream ... this is the first place I have found that serves ice cream with white chocolate !!! All YUMMY !!! 😄😄😄 …
My favorite ice cream in RI. The only downside is the wait. Expect to wait 10-20 minutes MIN when it’s not busy and 30-40 minutes MIN when it’s busy. They need to hire more people.
Always great ice cream!
Newly renovated store which looks awesome. Ice cream is homemade and delicious!!! SO many flavors to offer and the portions are generous. Friendly staff and hands down the best ice cream around!!!
It was very good, not too busy on this gray dreary day. Fat free frozen yogurt, chocolate peanut butter cup was delish. Hadn't been in 2 yrs. That was our Easter treat!
The ice cream is great, "except" the chocolate chips they put in the mint chip. They use bakers chips which are designed to be baked not frozen and become incredibly hard. Watch your teeth if you eat them.
This place is a family favorite. Always busy, but worth the wait. A billion flavors, both hard & soft varieties, reasonably priced, and HUGE scoops. Yummy sundaes, frappes, smoothies, waffle cones, sherbet & sorbets. 💜💛💚 …
A local establishment. You quite simply cannot go wrong with your choice. If there's a line, it's worth the wait. If the parking lot is full, try across the street at the park. Take extra napkins.
It's cool they now take cards and aren't cash only. Love the new candy room. The Keep has way better ice cream but there is a lot more variety here.
Nice place, has a large selection of icecream. A little on the expensive side and tough to park on the busy days. Can park across the street at the park, but the road can be busy and fast, so be careful. They can get very busy on just warm days with long lines, but they get to you quickly and offer you help with making whatever concoction that you want.
The Ice Cream Machine is a part of people lives here. There is literally something for everyone. Even no sugar added ice cream. They even have a candy store now. Now, if you have never been, you may have to wait in long lines. It is worth the wait!!
Been going here since I was a kid. Moved away to NY and come by every time I come home. Now I'm bringing my kids (and nieces and nephews) here! Great once cream and great staff. Be warned, their smalls are pretty damn large! 😁 …
Always have good service however, the serving size has drastically shrunk from years past, though still worth the trip. Its worth going just to see how bad people navigate to a parking space, 15 minutes will make you shake your head in disbelief, laugh, and fear for your life! Worth the adventure!
LOVE LOVE LOVE the Ice Cream Machine, can't have enough of it, but, that's where the problem would start of gaining the weight. It's all home made, I personally LOVE the COFFEE HEATH, or the BLACK RASPBERRY is also another great choice.
Great ice cream, great prices, wish they would put up a light in the evening for the bugs, getting swarms of mosquitos on us. Other than that nice place.
Never disappointed. Rich creamy ice cream. Best in the general area. Probably best in a fifty mile radius.
Great place to get a frozen treat. The ice is always great. They also sell candy and fudge here, you can even get floats, shakes, frappe's, and ice cream cake.
Great ice cream. Love the apple sundae! Can get super busy but line usually moves along. Recommend parking across the street since parking lot is tight.
was good ice cream overall. an hour wait. people went inside to order instead of waiting in the outside lines…. overall not fair when people have been waiting.
I found the serving sizes decreasing with the last 3 visits. We are usually there like every other day. Don t know if it s them cutting back. That s always been their edge along with a good product of course. Used to give them 5 stars
Some of the best homemade ice cream I have ever had. Rich, delicious and a huge selection of flavors. Do yourself a favor and stop by if you are ever in the area.
Great flavors, good prices and giant servings. Their kiddie sized scoop is huge! Homemade waffle cones and amazing cabinets. Highly recommend!
Best ice cream around! Always creamy and generous portions. They have a great selection of flavors too
Huuuuge selection of very good ice cream in a variety of creative flavors. Lines may be long, but they are usually well staffed and fast.
What a great place to go for a cool summer treat! They have a great variety of ice cream flavors, Shakes,Sundaes, Smoothies and you can get large to kiddie sizes.
Best ice cream ever! Delicious creamy ice cream. Highly recommend bringing a bottle of water with you. Many different homemade flavors to try. A couple of my favorites are smores and coffee oreo.
Good homemade ice cream. Gets busy at times but worth the wait. Little pricey but totally worth it. They have grapenut ice cream, which is fantastic.
It’s good but pricey. That said, cream is expensive. If you like homemade ice cream check it out. It is delicious & they offer many unique combos.
Home Made Ice Cream on Diamond Hill ,Only cash or Cheque accepted (They have ATM inside shop if you want to withdraw)
Flavors are awesome and locality is very nice you can grab ice cream and walk towards diamond hill park
Summer its very busy ...Orange Pineapple ,Ginger
Grape Nut are different than usual
Nice spot for having Icecream with family enjoying the fresh air. Parking is very limited but you can park across the street in diamond hill park's parking.
Great place for a nice ice cream treat. Will not disappoint! Open year round!!
Just need to go! Great variety of ice creams and reasonable prices - outdoor space & Diamond Hill park across for more space. A summer RI tradition to enjoy!
Great ice cream! Prices are a little high and can get kind of busy during the summer but the taste is great! Can always take it across the street to the park too!
Best salted caramel ice cream I've ever had
Nice atmosphere , big portion size and large flavours selection. Average taste tried 4 flavours... liked coffee . Don't buy pistachio , almond . Those 2 have worst taste
I've been going there since I was a young teenager. Now I'm a dad and I'm taking my teenagers there. Great icecream for decades.
Friendly service, very good homemade ice cream in many flavors, and giant servings! Several outside tables, but it's a tight squeeze. I'd like to give it a 4 1/2!
Always good ice cream. Place is never not busy but worth it. Don't forget to leave tip
Good parking, lots of windows to order at, friendly staff, and tons of ice cream flavors to choose from. Ice cream is very good quality. No public bathroom.
Prices are affordable and they serve you a descent amount of ice cream, lines a a bit long but with such good variety of flavors and low prices it is self explanatory.
Amazing ice cream! Talk about choices!! This place has soooo many flavor options of hard scooped ice cream. The ice cream is smooth, flavorful, and creamy. Will come back again and again.
Best ice cream ever. ignore the rest of the poor comments. Huge portions, reasonably priced, great atmosphere. Enjoy your ice cream on a bench or across the street at the local park.
surrounded by woods, bring bug spray.
Best homemade ice cream in new England. So many options, and some great seasonal ice cream. Price is great. You may wait in lines but well worth it.
Excellent Ice Cream. No other Ice cream shop in RI is a near match to it.
Lot of Flavors to choose from. The time to choose and order an ice cream is always greater than the time to consume it :).
Hands down, the best ice cream shop around. Their caramel apple ice cream is the best.
Prices are a lot better than some other places and their icecream is really great with tons of options
Best place to get real ice cream it doesn't fall apart are new and now they have the candy shop open which has homemade fudge as well as great little candy from back in the day penny candy great variety of ice cream friendly staff and very clean
It's the best, home made, ice cream around. If you like Bliss's ice cream, you won't after trying it here. Open all year round and they have seasonal specials.
That was the best banana split I had in over 30 years those two girls were very polite and I also love the candy it was cheap enough I would go back there that they get a cone with that coffee ice cream now that's what I call coffee ice cream I definitely give this five-star and I shall return over there
Apple crisp Sunday is the best ever. Had one at autumn fest from there food truck. So now I’m a regular
Best ice cream around. Lots of flavors and friendly service make it even better.
Best ice cream around. They serve very large amounts. I usually order a small and it's hard to finish. Worth the visit.
Great service and ice cream!
Always excellent. The servings are massive, I never get bigger than a small (2 giant scoops). And the flavor selection is nuts!
Love their ice cream, so many choices to choose from. If you are not an ice cream lover get a kiddie size cup bacause they don't play when it comes to the amount they put in. I couldn't finish a small :-)
Fantastic ice cream and topping flavor selection. Top notch, friendly and fast customer service
Our go to ice cream place, we really love getting ice cream from here! They have so many amazing flavors!
The ice cream was delicious. Affordable and really well made. Portions are a good size. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.
Awesome homemade ice cream and tons of flavors. It can get busy at times but the staff are fast and the lines move quickly.
My favorite place to go in Rhode Island. The only complaints I have is the lack of waffle cones early in season. Also the line system is atrocious and needs a rope system, I kept getting cut by rude customers.
Soooo goooood!! I love coming here. They have a variety of flavors, toppings and ice cream cakes. Highly recommending visiting this place for a delicious treat.
I have been going here since I was a little kid. Still the best peanut butter ice cream I have ever had (and I've tried my fair share)!
Great ice cream. Always busy on weekend but it is worth th e wait in line. Ice cream is rich and creamy
one of the best and cool place in Cumberland RI
The ice cream machine - orange pineapple best flavor

Fantastic ice cream, generous portions at a reasonable price, and well organized for social distancing!
Best ice cream drive in around. If it's cold, it's here. Love it.
The service was excellent the ice cream was good also, but the coffee shakes lacked coffee syrup to give them a more coffee flavor.

Good prices....best caramel apple seasonal ice cream ever
