Frappes we're good. We got one Fae (dole whip) and one Dabney (cookies and cream). They were very patient while I sorted out a no -dairy option read more

They had very good ice cream and very good service :) would definitely come back!!! Good vibes

This was an amazing stop! Best prices and so clean! This season I've been so disappointed with other ice cream shops cross contamination with ice cream scoops (I don't want minty peach ice cream ) but was not an issue here at all! They were so kind and let my kids try multiple samples before picking their scoop! We will be back for sure! read more

walked over after our delicious lobster dinner at the weathervane. my husband LOVES black raspberry ice cream, and it was pretty darn delicious! compared to the fancy downtown shop's cone he had last night, cowlicks' ice cream was creamier, smoother, and 1/2 the price for a bigger scoop! i had cookies and cream--so many cookie pieces! i could barely finish my cone, but i managed! delicious! fast & courteous service read more

Went here after dinner on a rainy night. Hadn't been here in a long time so didn't know the menu or price range. The menu had a lot of options, but we didn't see any nondairy or sorbet options. There was slush. We both decided to get ice cream. I got a Sunday. It was a good size and tasted great. I don't know if they make their own ice cream or if it is a branded item but it was good. Toppings were also good and not so overwhelming you missed the ice cream. Worth the price. He got a frozen frappe mix thing. He enjoyed it and it was really thick. Soft serve was limited in flavors but the standard chocolate was fine. Definitely worth what we paid for it. I'd recommend. The staff was kind and quick and were patient as we made our selections. read more

Who closes an icecream shop at 7 every day of the week in summer? Prime icecream hour is 8. Lazy

Some flavors are good, some are just okay. The one thing that's ALWAYS true about Cowlicks is that they are always WAY TOO SLOW! Don't expect to "just make a quick stop" here. Unless you're the first one in line and all you want is one scoop of ice cream, you will never be able to just get in and get out. read more

Felt a bit rushed to order but there's such a large menu to decide from. But the soft serve wasn't to soft that it melted on the hot day. It was just the right texture. The maple flavor wasn't strong through read more

I absolutely love the spoons. They are perfect!! The ice cream is so delicious. We come often, so close!! read more

Great ice cream stand with parking. Since it's a quick 10 min drive from my house, I go here often. I try a different flavor every time I go. They have seasonal flavors throughout the summer, my favorite is strawberry cheesecake and then pumpkin and apple pie once fall comes around. I wish they were open year round! Their soft serve flavors are vanilla, chocolate, black raspberry and then have reg twist (chocolate and vanilla) and princess twist (raspberry and vanilla). They have a bunch of soft serve mix ins flavors as well but I've never had those, someday I hope to! read more

Sorry I don't do this often. But I just went with my family and mine was good my mom had a grape nut and it had a variety of other ice creams in it a little gross but still good. she had a small and my Dad had ordered a large and got a small they said it was a medium. Also I wasn't loving the new vibe I liked it how it was before they redid it. But it still looks cute. read more

I liked coming here every so often, but I would just stick to lickees and chewies ice cream nearby in Dover. The workers there were kind of rude one night. The lady in front of us got the wrong ice cream and when she told the worker, she rolled her eyes. Then they forgot about one of our family members ice cream and when we asked them about it they rolled their eyes again. When it came out they said "here you go" in an annoyed tone. Usually they're nice and they're reasonably priced and the ice cream is great. But customer service comes a long way. An upgrade in size or at least an apology for the wait would've been nice. They probably had a rough night though so you should still check it out if you're rolling by and there shouldn't be a problem. read more

Sizes are small and prices are high, not what I'm used to as an avid Lone Oak fan. I had heard great things about this place, so we decided to give it a try this summer, but over $4 for a 1 scoop ice cream is ridiculous. Everyone working was friendly. We won't go out of our way to come back. read more

Really disappointed when we visited tonight. We paid full price for their a large "nor'easter" and was given a 3/4 of the way filled small size. We were told that their soft serve machine was out of ice cream. When we voiced our concern they only refunded us $1 and closed the window. We usually love coming here but found that for the money we are paying, this just isn't worth it. Very disappointed.. read more

Really enjoy that during this time they are allowing you to text them your orders and that there are multiple ways to pay. I wish they had more updated flavors maybe online or a sign that you could see from your car. Also took a while after I ordered but I didn't mind too much. read more

Golick's has a noteworthy selection of flavors, which they always have in full stock, somehow crammed into a fairly small and triangular-shaped building. Their portions are good. The staff are fast and friendly. The best part is really the flavor selection. It'll take you most of the summer to try every one. Then if you beat that challenge, you should try a combination with every topping, and then you can try one of every flavor as a float or frappe. Let me know how your stomach is after that. It might hurt, but it'll be the happiest hurt you've ever had. read more

If only they could stay open longer into the fall season. Incredible selections of ice cream, sherbet and non dairy. If you go hungry it's your own fault read more

Classic New England ice cream stand. Super fast and super friendly. It is also a nice little local meetup spot if you are new to the area.

A little pricey but I enjoy the variety which is awesome. Personally I go there for the frappes since the demise of Friendly's downtown. Plenty of parking, friendly staff and right next to a great restaurant! read more

Why would anyone go for an ice cream cone when you can get a half gallon at the store? For the same reason one goes to the theater when there's plenty to watch on tv, or go to their favorite pub instead of the liquor store... FUN! Golick's serves only the absolute best ice cream in sugar cones, waffle cones, flat bottomed ice cream cups, pints, practically any way you can think of. My wife and I went today for a "cool-down" from summertime activities. She got their new Apple Crisp ice cream and I got traditional Coffee ice cream in a waffle cone. Served by a young lady named Virginia who made me feel like I was her most important customer, just as everyone who works there does each visit. Without at least one trip to Golick's, summer just doesn't seem like summer. read more

I just visited Golicks for the first time since they reopened for the Summer. I try to support local businesses, but their prices must have really gone up! I paid $4.75 for a small sundae. The young clerk tried to charge me $5.75 until I said something. Did she not know the prices? Anyway Golicks is too expensive for us now. For $4.00 you can get a half gallon of pretty good ice cream at Janeto's, a much better deal! read more

This is an ice cream stand. That's it. No hot dogs. No soft drinks. No chips. No pretzels. It is in the parking lot of the Weathervane restaurant so if you want a good meal this place has the desert for you. The variety here is outrageous. There is soft serve, hard serve, low sugar, no sugar added, ice cream for dogs and more. There's at least a hundred flavors listed on the board and they have special flavors too! They make all kinds of sundaes and banana splits and they have those large waffle cones dipped in jimmies. They also make frappes and floats. There is plenty of parking but this place can get busy. Like, really busy. Still they put their best servers on at the peak times and the people there are really friendly. They are generous too so if you want a small you need to tell them you really want them to make it small. They have napkins but you have to ask for them. They also have a portable potty but you need to ask for a key. The thing cowlicks does right is that it sticks to the basics. Cowlicks gives a decent service and a good product at a reasonable price. The prices here are comparable to any other ice cream stand. There is not much seating so you will likely eat your ice cream in the car. If they at least had soda or even bottled water this would be a five star review. But it is a nice place for a pit stop. read more

What happened to the old Golicks? I haven't been here in a couple of years and suddenly the prices are through the roof! I ordered a KIDDIE size peppermint stick ice cream on a sugar cone with jimmies...and it came to $4! What??! I repeat...KIDDIE size!! And $4!!! Also, the peppermint stick had waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too many peppermint candies in it (it was not what I remember it being like). I had to spit out a bunch of the candies just to find the ice cream. Gross. Oh, on the upside, i did notice they now have m&m ice cream at the Dover location - YAY! I wrote them a couple of years ago requesting it...and they listened! :) Hopefully they will read this and listen again re the price and the peppermint overload... Bring back the Golicks of yesteryear please! read more

Very disappointing, sizes were all over the place. No consistency, smalls bigger than mediums etc. It all seemed to depend on who scooped your purchase. Good ice cream stingy portions for cost. Won't be back. read more

The mark of a good ice cream place is a fantastic vanilla and this place got it right! Tons of flavors, hard and soft and frozen yogurt and Dole whip... 5 diff sizes! Friendly quick service! read more

My fiancée and I went to weathervane for dinner and decided to go to Cowlick's for ice cream. We go two medium ice creams and two frappes. 25 minutes later we got the frappes. 25 minutes in 60 degree weather. read more

The ice cream is very good. I've gone here several times over the past few years and can recommend getting almost anything on the menu. The Mint Explosion is exactly what you expect but very well done. The Princess Twist is an interesting soft serve raspberry. However if you go you need to order the Java Jazz shake. It's the same price as any other shake but has coffee blended into your choice in ice cream. The Java Jazz with coffee is better than anything you can get at a designated coffee shop. read more

You know it's a local's favorite when every night you drive by the parking lot is full! They have a lot of flavors for ice cream, sorbet, soft serve and dole twists. Family friendly and dog friendly! Generous portions, even for the small! read more

Great ice cream! I've been going here for years, and they've only gotten better! I'd suggest their Princess Twist or their Dole fruit-twists. read more

Cowlick's is one our favorite ice cream places. They serve 2/3 hard serve and 1/3 soft serve. They have dole whip too. I was there for their last day - BOGO day. I got 4 quarts of: pumpkin, Cookie Monster, southern peach, and grapenut hard serve. It's all good! read more

The servers are always nice, and there is a huge variety of ice cream (it can be overwhelming, but that's the best part). It's conveniently located by Weathervane, so you can get ice cream there after lunch or dinner, and there is always plenty of parking. It also has Dolewhip ice cream, which is not served at many ice cream places and is great for people who are lactose intolerant or just want some light, refreshing ice cream (even though I'm not sure what's in it...) read more

Very traditional New England Ice Cream Stand in an A frame. The soft server has no flavor, the hard ice cream has some flavor but is way too sweet. Dole whip is Dole whip. Hard to understand why this place would be popular. read more

This is easily my favorite ice cream place- although I more frequently visit the Rochester location since it's closer to home, both have great ice cream. The soft serve is delicious, and Golick's has the best selection of any other place in this area I've tried. read more

This place is the best in Dover for sure. Better ice cream flavors, better variety, and better size options. Also very clean and well run place :) the staff is fantastic and very fast. read more

I enjoyed the ice cream here. Mint explosion was minty, but not too sweet. Chocolate PB was delicious with a perfect balance of flavor. Not homemade, but "locally made". Great variety of flavors and very friendly service. Gluten free cones (only 25 cent up charge) are a huge bonus for us! read more

I have gone to Cowlick's for years. I am in love with there frappes and have waited in a line to have the chocolate and coffee!! well worth the wait. The staff is amazing!! If you like ice cream or frappes YOU MUST GO TO COWLICK'S Malissa Day read more

Great ice cream place. I love that they have a vanilla/black raspberry soft serve twist.

New to the Dover area we have been anxious to try Cowlick's and finally manufactured an excuse. There was a line when we arrived, but with 4 or 5 windows open they took care of it in reasonable time. 4 of us had 3 different flavors (red raspberry revolution, chocolate lover's chocolate and a slated caramel something) all of which were creative and very tasty. The portions were very generous, larger, I think, than most competitors. The staff was friendly, even offering samples if we were heaving trouble deciding. The one thing that I cannot understand is their policy of causing one to order enough ice cram for 3 people before you can have two different flavors. My cup clearly had two separate large scoops in it. Why those could not be two different flavors makes no sense to me...the customer. read more

For sure, Golick's has great ice cream. But. A few years ago I wrote a letter to the owner's suggesting they change the way in which they serve ice cream - such as getting cones with paper wraps, or at the very least, wrap a napkin around the cone. The thing is, the kids who serve you are handling everything, including money, prior to handling the cone. Within a week a notice was posted on Golick's window stating that if you wanted a napkin wrapped around the cone prior to serving to just ask. It seems to me one shouldn't have to ask to have your food handled in a sanitary way. Tonight I went to Golick"s - I hoped to see changes were still in place, albeit, very minor. No such luck. There was no sign about napkins, cones have no paper, and I was served an ice cream by the server who handled money right before me. And the worst - what are we always told is the germiest item in our kitchen? - the sponge. Take a look when you go next time, if you do - there's a big sponge sitting near the ice cream freezers, and prior to using the scoop to scoop the ice cream the server wiped off the dirty dripping water from the shared scoop bucket of water, on the sponge! Is this sponge changed often, disinfected, and dried out between uses? Let's hope so, or that another way if found to take care of dripping water, before the Board of Health finds out. I did eat most of the ice cream, but not the cone. Getting kind of expensive - $2.75 for a kiddie ice cream - do you really want to spend that much money for your little one when you know they'd be happy with x brand from your local grocery store where you could get at least a quart for the same price? read more
