This has been my favorite local ice cream shop for as long as I can remember. AYLI has a very loyal…read morefan base (me included) and rightfully so. The whole experience is always nostalgic and 10/10. The staff is always so kind and more than willing to give you their thoughts about different ice creams, and provide you with samples. The shop was recently repainted and it looks so cute now! I do miss the old look a bit but I also really like the new one! The inside seating definitely needed a refresh and it's great now! The flavors are still just as good as ever, the brownie smores is a long time favorite of mine. Now the sizes- I get a kiddie because it is HUGE. I can never finish the small size. The size in the pictures is a kiddie for reference. I usually get brownie s'mores and another flavor to complement it, and top it off with sprinkles. On a warm day you'll see AYLI packed and even with a line out the door, but it moves quickly and it is worth the wait. TLDR: best ice cream around. get it!

The guy making it asked me how sweet I wanted it and he said he recommends 50%. It was definitely sweet enough. I had the IYKYK and it was great.

They rotate the soft serve flavors monthly and you can twist the seasonal flavors together. Pictured here is the coffee, birthday cake, and the twist of the two. Some other flavors they offer throughout the season include orange, pumpkin, graham cracker, and mint. Vanilla and chocolate are always available in addition to some non dairy flavors. The hard ice cream is tasty though I usually get soft when I come. Sizes are super generous and there is some outdoor seating as well. Bring cash!

Whether you're looking for a solid salad, the Cobb with fried chicken and their house-made ranch is a must, or a gourmet burger, they always hit the mark. On my most recent visit, I tried the Double Smashed & Seared Angus Burger (a limited-time menu special). It was excellent, featuring a perfect blend of roasted garlic aioli, house-pickled onions, on a toasted brioche bun. It was huge. My friend opted for the Root Beer BBQ Burger, which was equally impressive. Don't skip the homemade ice cream! Their flavors are rich and unique. My favorites are the Black Raspberry Truffle (with huge chocolate chips) and the Coconut Almond Chip are my personal favorites. The atmosphere is lovely, with a comfortable dining room and a nice outdoor patio. The staff are always friendly and welcoming. There are handicapped spots in the front, and plenty of additional parking in the lots behind and in the additional lot next door to the restaurant. This place gets busy! If you have a large party, definitely call ahead for a reservation.

As a returning customer, I had to stop by Blue Sheep Bake Shop's new location. They've moved from…read moretheir old spot on Division Street to Main Street. It's a short walk away, and they are now in Epic Cookies' old location. This new space is bigger and more front and center. A lot of people did not realize that their old location was even there on Division Street, until I took them there. They just opened this location about three days ago, so it was pretty busy when I visited today, and even Karin and her husband were in there helping out! Both very kind people! I came in for my favorite "Death by Chocolate" cupcake and was excited to try two new flavors, Coconut Guava and Lemon Raspberry. I usually check their website ahead of time to see what seasonal cupcakes they have before visiting, I saw those and rush over here. P.s. please bring back the Versailles Cupcake from Summer '25! That raspberry filling is heaven sent, and part of the reason why I came by to try the Lemon raspberry flavor! Even with the rush, the staff was just as friendly as always. I really love it here and always bring my family and friends when they are in town! I'll definitely miss the charm of the old location, but I'm excited for them in this new space and hope that it works out well for them!

Hello just to respond to the owner. Im ok if the price goes…read moreup i understand. Money is not the problem or my complaint Im driving almost an hour and i always buy 5-6 bars at a time My only issue is that the topping changed before it was some granola or oats topping Now its some crumble or something i dont know what ti is but it doesnt taste the same or good as before .. . I drove to boston because i was in the mood for good pasta .. My time is more important than money when i take time to drive somewhere and the food has changed .. please go back to the other toppings you had and ill gladly come back with no hesitation ... Thank you very much

They have such unique and creative flavors across the board, it's hard to pick just one! Also loved their carbonated passion fruit with lychee Pom Pom drink--refreshing, fruity, and totally addictive. The place is super clean and well-maintained, with a welcoming vibe. I'm already planning my next trip back. If you love good ice cream (and drinks that are next-level delicious), Sweet Parlor is a must-visit!

It tasted as good as it smelled b/c they made their own batter (just like their ice creams) not using any prepackaged powder with artificial flavors. Bubble waffle with my favorite triple threat chocolate and black sesame...the winning combination!!! If you like ice cream and haven't been to Sweet Parlor, you really should! But be patient if you walk in and saw a line. It's hard to make a decision with so many good options and they let you try it. Btw, they are in Somerville, too!

Frozen Falls is my go-to froyo spot in the Basking Ridge area. As huge lover of froyo, I've scoped…read moreout my fair share of self-serve shops over the years. I gotta say, Frozen Falls ranks pretty highly among all of them and here's the reasons why... 1) So so sooo many toppings to choose from. Their selection is like nothing I've ever seen before. They literally have every last topping you could ever hope for. From fruits, to candy, to cereal, to chocolate covered almonds (say whaaaaat?!), they really do have it all. Try not to get overwhelmed because at Frozen Falls your wish really is their command. 2) Testers. In my opinion, every self serve froyo shop NEEDS to allow for people to test flavors. Frozen Falls does just that. You will have to ask an associate for tester cups (they'll do it for you), but my experience has always been that staff is super patient and willing to let you try as many flavors as you'd like. 3) Open late for when you have those 10pm froyo cravings. I absolutely love that they're open til 11pm on Fridays! 4) Clean, bright, and open floor plan. Staff kept the tables in tip top shape and the froyo dispensers were clean too. 5) Free and accessible water. These are the small details that Frozen Falls certainly hasn't overlooked. I can usually chug back a water after eating all the sweets so its nice that they keep a water dispenser right at your finger tips. 6) Pay by the weight so feel free to get as little (or as much) as you want!
