I got the soft serve in a chocolate covered waffle cone (with rainbow jimmies). Not knowing what the sizes would be, so I got a medium. It was huge. My mom got a small sugar cone with mint chocolate chip ice cream. The total was $18 for the 2 of us. My eyes popped out of my head when I heard the total. I guess that's what you get for buying life cream near the beach. The gentleman that waited on us was friendly and helpful. I ended up throwing out 1/2 my ice cream, because it was just too much, but that's on me for not asking the size. I'm just glad I didn't get a large, because the medium was huge. read more

Why oh why does this place always disappoint? With the word custard in your name I am always hopeful to get... custard! That creamy and dreamy thick soft serve that nothing else compares to. In the handful of times I've been here they always seem to be out. Then the last time I came, huzzah! Custard! I can see the machine! It's on the board! And yet, the sad icy, bland cone that I received was definitely not custard. The teen behind the counter did ask if soft serve would suffice, but failed to tell me that I'd be receiving some of the blandest, worst soft serve whether I insisted on custard or not. I won't be back. I'll make the trek to Kohr Brothers next time. read more

Ordered a strawberry milkshake asked if it could be made with frozen custard. Paid $10 w tax and tip. Waited 30 minutes on a Sunday in Aug. Got a vanilla milkshake and asked for it to be fixed and they asked how I wanted it. I said I don't care just make a strawberry milkshake however you normally do it but she wanted to use the mistaken one and blend something in. I asked if she could just make a new one however they normally make it if they don't usually do it w custard. Then she starts telling me there's nothing abut strawberry on the ticket etc. what? So you think I waited 30mins to lie about my order? No thanks. Got my money back. Annoyed they get to keep the tip but oh well. . If they just would have remade it would have been fine. Def won't be back. read more

This place is sooo great! They have Italian water ice, soft serve ice cream, soft serve custard and a variety of gourmet ice creams. They are all great options and you can even mix the water ice with the soft serve. Yummy! The service is quick and friendly and the atmosphere is kick back and chill. They have outdoor seating with good music. Always a fun place to visit! read more

They are clearly not training the kids that work here properly. It was extremely dirty. Ants crawling on the floor and ice cream/toppings all over the counter and floor. The areas behind the counter were also very dirty. The workers are practically on top of each other and no one seems to know what they're doing. Having side conversations while there is a line of people waiting for items. Ordered a milkshake and it was literal milk. We will not be back here. It was disgusting. read more

Super excited to have had a chance to stop by as I hadn't been in a while. I used to come with my grandpa when I was a young'un, and it remains every bit as magical as it was back then. I got the strawberry vanilla twist custard which was perfectly strawberry and creamy. I also had a chance to try the pistachio almond and peach which were both just perfect. Great place to come by for a frozen treat! read more

Found this place while searching for ice cream the other night. Glad we gave them a try. Everyone was craving soft serve. Custards seems to have an endless menu of flavors and different combinations. I went with the strawberry and vanilla swirl which was possibly some of the best ice cream I've ever had. We'll definitely be stopping by again when we're in town. read more

Jacked their prices way up this season. We got a small frozen yogurt with hot fudge and a regular size gelati. The frozen yogurt was so small that I can't believe they have a kiddie size below it. Kiddie size must be in a shot glass I guess. Anyway, $18.50 before tipping the girls. !!! read more

The chocolate peanut butter homemade water ice was DELICIOUS!! Nice area outside to eat.

worst service ever. waited 15 mins with nobody in line. there was 2 14 year olds waiting on us and some girl in the back doing nothing. my mom got hers after like 5 mins and then people came in after 10 mins and got there's while me and my son waited 15 more mins. at one point all 3 employees were just standing there doing nothing while me and my son waited. all 3 ice creams were wrong. my mom didn't get whip cream or a cherry and they forgot her wet nuts. me and my son didn't get whip cream or cherries either. my mom took 2 bites and threw hers out. sundaes in ventnor is waaay better. the owner is actually there every day and hires grownups that know what they are doing. we will never go to custards again read more

When I think of a classic down the shore ice-cream joint, this place is it. Line is out the door and families crowded around outside eating their share. If you do plan on coming here, definitely walk instead of drive. The parking lot is tiny and seemed like an absolute nightmare to get out of especially peak time after dinner. My husband and I got the soft serve twist of classic vanilla/chocolate and vanilla/orange. The orange tasted exactly like a creamsicle. Mine was creamy but not to heavy. I forgot to mention that this place is pet friendly! We brought our dog with us and he made some doggy friends. Was a great dessert after dinner! read more

I love their frozen custard. It's like soft serve but thicker, so it doesn't melt and drip as quickly on a hot summer day. When I was there the flavors were strawberry and vanilla swirl. Soooooo good. read more

Ice cream is the best! And served in huge portions. One star demotion bc they only take cash (no credit cards), yet they don't have an ATM for unknowing customers' convenience. read more

This review concerns the customer service. I had a problem with a credit charge when I used my card at Custards and asked their help. They spent 20 minutes going thru their records to help me out and took care of the problem by issuing a credit to my card. Wonderful people. read more

wanted to make this a regular stop on the way out of Ventnor. 1st time i mustakingly ordered the cannoli water ice, which was quite disgusting. But still gave it a second try thinking I picked the wrong flavor. Time to we had just vanilla ice cream with rainbow sprinkles and a chocolate banana hand dipped ice cream. Those taste tasted OK at first, but after a few bites, you started to taste overwhelming artificial flavor, and it wasn't even tolerable to finish the small size ice cream of either of them. And it was expensive $15 for two small ice creams. gonna find another stop on the way out of Ventnor to make it a ritual. This won't be it. read more

I was in town for the weekend and was really craving for some cold dessert and came upon this. It is a small and unique ice cream place. There is some indoor seatings and outdoor seatings. I went to this place twice within the same day. I went after an afternoon at the beach which was around 4 or 5 and it wasn't crowded or anything. Then I went again at like 8ish and it was packed. The line was out the door but it moved fairly quickly. I tried the water ice and it was super refreshing for a hot day. I felt like it was helping me cool down my body in the heat. I had the orange cream and mango. The orange cream was amazing and the mango was okay. My bf enjoyed his ice cream as well. Their soft serve tasted great as well. Def a place to visit when you are at Ventnor city read more

Long lines, but was it worth the hype? Mediocre at best. Pretzel ice cream was the best out of 4 flavors tried.

It was my first time at this place so as soon as I walked in the young lady didn't greet me right away. She looked at me weird. I didn't know what I wanted at first. Then I asked her what chocolate ice cream you have with peanuts so she started naming flavors. I ordered the chocolate banana that she mentioned and there were no peanuts. Never will I return there again read more

Holds good memories and the employees are very sweet I recommend this place if you're looking for somewhere content

Excellent every single time!! Go off hours and your in and out quickly. Best custard anywhere!

I love ice cream! I stopped In on a Saturday evening. It was definitely crowed but it wasn't overwhelming. They even have a kiosk you can order from. I elected not to because I wanted to see the inside. U could understand the convenience if I was a regular. Inside is the line to order ice cream and a small section where people could it inside. The line was a little hectic with the amount on younger kids getting ice cream but I expected that Due to it being Saturday. Choices and more choices. I never saw so many flavors. I decided on a birthday cake milkshake . I love when places let you use hard serve for the milkshakes. The milk shake was nice and creamy. I was shocked when I realized they used cardboard straws opposed to plastic. It was a different experience. Not bad, just different. I'm not such how I feel about it, I'm all for helping the environment but it still takes some getting used too. Also too, there is parking! Which is a major plus for a beach town which normally requires street parking. I would love to return and try some other items/flavors. read more

Custard's Last Stand makes me reminisce about my childhood. I remember long summer days spent at the beach. Then, we'd shower and eat dinner and go to Custard's for refreshing water ice- the perfect treat after a full day of sun. I personally love the mango water ice, but there are just so many flavors to choose from. I forget what they're called, I think they might be flurricanes, but they're also amazing too. Kind of like blizzards from Dairy Queen but better. You choose an ice cream and get it mixed with some yummy toppings. I like to do Kit Kat's in mine and a chocolate ice cream base! It's a great spot and you can also get like really big containers (almost like buckets!) of water ice. read more

If you like or have been spoiled by excellent ice cream such as gelato, steer clear of this place. Very mediocre.

heard this place was supposed to close after last season & i'm so happy it didn't! i'm a ventnor local & this is still my fav ice cream spot to go to. worth the wait if the line is long (it moves quickly though) or you can order ahead & pic it up at the window (been loving that option since last summer). Their staff is ALWAYS friendly, patient & helpful & it's super clean & bright inside! Glad yas stuck around Custards! read more

The ice cream was amazing and the owner helped jump my friend's car 30 minutes after they closed.

I ordered a regular chocolate milkshake and threw it out when I left because it was so bad. It tasted like melted chocolate syrup mixed with ice or melted soft serve ice cream with chocolate syrup. Overall the worst milkshake I've ever had. Although my boyfriend got orange cream water ice and it was really good! read more

Size alert. Kiddie size is half a tub. These guys are not messing around. I am not a little guy and I could only eat half my "medium" sundae. The waffles is what we came for, and while they were acceptable, they won't be the reason I go back. Had the waffles been a home run, this would have been upgraded to a 5 no doubt! read more

The homemade water ice is REALLY good! We are there every weekend in the summer with the kids.

The soft custard here is better than any of its local competitors and the portions and prices are much more generous. This is a winning, 5 star combination. The servers behind the counter are smiling and friendly and eager to wait on you. My dining partner is not a frozen custard fan but loves their water ice. I suspect that there is a secret process in how they make the custard that out performs all the rest. I keep going back - fortunately it is a 1.5 mile walk from my house to Custard's so I can work off some of the calories. It's a nice walk over the Dorset avenue bridge, especially at sunset. read more

They have nondairy options!!! delicious ice cream and friendly staff. Definitely going back.

Best water ice and custard shop in the Area. They also have homemade waffles. They are usually open a little late. Portions are large. My favorite is the mango gelati . read more

This place has anything you could possibly want. They have frozen yogurt, regular soft serve, Richmond's hard ice cream, chocolate covered frozen bananas, purée frozen fruit, soft pretzels, water ice, ice cream cakes and more. Everything I have had there so far has been great! I had ordered a 9" round birthday cake from there which was delicious and very fresh. They used soft serve vanilla And chocolate with crushed Oreo in between and a whipped cream on top. They also decorated the cake nicely! read more

The prices are okay for what you get but the custards aren't really anything special. The worst part of my experience was the extremely rude female worker who thought it was appropriate to make condescending remarks right in front of me as if I wasn't there. She shouldn't be working there if she can't hold her attitude back, as this job is all about customer service. read more

Went there yesterday, early evening, and it was great! Reasonable prices, awesome service, and delicious product. The girl that helped us was super patient with me and my 3 1/2 year old... Very much appreciated! Will definitely go back. read more

The girl Soondus is the best ice cream server. I come here just for her service.! Make her employee of the year! GOOO SOONDUS

I'm from Maryland, so have never been here before. Here's some key points: Amazing food and selection Great customer service HUGE serving sizes "get a kids size!" Clean facility Homemade products Vegan options Easy parking We went both of the two days we were in Atlantic City. Both times the line was extremely long, but the employees worked very well under the pressure and were patient and helpful in helping us choose what we wanted. Very large selection. I enjoyed their soft serve and their birthday cake ice cream. My husband loved the homemade waffle cones. Thank you for a great frozen treat! read more

Pretty good ice cream. I had banana chocolate in a waffle cone (I don't think I'd had banana chocolate ice cream before) and it was not bad. The only reason it's 4 points and not 5 is that the taste of this ice cream got sort of boring, overwhelming towards the end, and it was a regular portion. I never get that feeling with frozen custard, for example, partly because it's less sugary than regular ice cream. Added bonus, all personnel there were strikingly beautiful young women, in their early twenties, definitely lights the place up. read more
