This is our go to neighborhood ice cream choice. I love the peanut butter sauce, my spouse loves the snickers ice cream, they have generous portions, and vibes are all good. Extra good vibes tonight after they replaced my super cranky kid's broken dream cone. This was above and beyond kindness and a good nudge to review an always solid choice right in our neighborhood. read more

Dairy Delight is not far from where I live. Had pistachio today loaded with nuts. Service is fast and I appreciate the seats outside. On a busy street but doesn't effect the brisk business. Offering a variety of ice cream and other ice cream type products. Wide variety, delicious creamy ice cream , generous portions, Richardson's you can't get better than that for New England style. :) read more

Dairy delight is my go to ice cream spot! I love all the flavors and types of ice cream you can get here. My favorite is the soft serve which you can customize and add toppings to as well. The portions are also huge and you get a ton of ice cream! Lines can be long in the summer but it moves fast and everyone who works there is really nice. read more

Dairy Delight - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Malden, Massachusetts

Highly recommend making a stop here. They have a wide range of flavors including non dairy options. There also have a wide range of toppings to choose from as well. Service was friendly and prices were reasonable. They have 4 sizes to pick from with the smallest being essentially half a scoop if you just need a little something to fulfill your sweet tooth. I also appreciated the fact that they wrapped my cup with tin foil so my hands would not get too sticky from dripping. read more

Dairy Delight - Pumpkin Oreo with hot fudge - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Malden, Massachusetts

Dairy Delight might be my favorite ice cream spot so far in the Boston-area. It's less expensive than the usual places that I go to in Boston/Cambridge with plenty of flavors to choose from. The Coffee Oreo that I got had a good mix of ice cream and sizeable Oreo chunks. The staff was nice and we got our ice cream quickly since it wasn't busy. Only downside is them using styrofoam for the cups, which is a throwback in a probably not environmentally-friendly and also flimsy way. Otherwise, no complaints! read more

10/10 each time. They have so many options from toppings, sundaes, and even non dairy options. I love Richardson's ice cream, but I can't fathom going all the way to the farm and standing in their massive line every time. Dairy delight is right down the street from me and the line moves quick (almost never a long line). Service is super quick and staff is friendly. My go-to ice cream spot! read more

Dairy Delight - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Malden, Massachusetts

Local ice cream place with lots of flavors. The people working are always friendly and helpful when I've visited. I like that they have smaller (kiddie) scoop sizes. I've only tried a couple of flavors but they were great. I tried a Heath tornado and it was a gooood amount of Heath bar mixed up into the ice cream. So glad for this local ice cream place! read more

The chocolate vanilla twists delighted me greatly and I loved the chocolate dip. Perfect! Excuse to have ice cream for dinner. Tight ship run by local young folk. Plan to spend a minute or so parking. read more

Giving Dairy Delight 5 stars for its tornados. It has a decent selection of regular ice cream, I wouldn't say any flavors are out of the ordinary. The Tornados however make Dairy Delight stand out from your ordinary ice cream stand. My one complaint is they have awful spoons that feel like they'll break after every scoop...annoying but not worth taking a star away. read more

Cute spot to grab a lil treat in Malden. Lots of options, including non dairy. Its one of those classic ice cream shack places which i love. I got a watermelon sherbet and it's yummy!

Dairy Delight - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Malden, Massachusetts

My fav place for ice cream I should have discover this place earlier. They have more than 50 flavors of ice cream with generous portion! Go for tennie or kiddie size if you came alone or just after dinner, Small size would be enough for two people. I came here everyday last week just want to try all the flavors, but they do have tooo many choices that I could handle in a week. Here are some highly recommend: coconut, green tea, peach, coffee, chocolate, pistachio, strawberry read more

If you can't find a flavor that you might enjoy at Dairy Delight you might not like ice cream! There's no inside seating to get out of the weather, you order at an outdoor walk-up window. The small size is a LOT of ice cream, consider yourself warned! Enjoy! read more

Solid ice cream joint with interesting flavors. I ordered the Toll House which is their Vanilla with tollhouse cookies and it was solid. Flavors weren't out of this world as I would say it was like eating some Breyers ice cream but at least the portions were huge. I ordered their kiddie which was one scoop and it was the size of a soft ball. It was almost like a half pint's worth of ice cream. Some of their benches are old and really wobbly. Friendly staff and they serve you in reasonable time. read more

Can't really miss this building with it being dairy themed! It's a small order/takeout window that has a HUGE selection of ice cream flavors to choose from. They have soft serve, hard serve, and Italian ice to name. I don't really know why I've been going to chain ice cream shops all the way in Boston to get ice cream when Dairy Delight is local for me! Prices are very reasonable and servings are generous. I ordered a small soft serve and it was practically the size of a large elsewhere! My go-to ice cream spot! read more

Dairy Delight - Small Mocha Swirl - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Malden, Massachusetts

Just the type of ice cream shop that you want to have in your neighborhood! I love the cute cartoons, ease of ordering at the window, and the myriad flavor/topping options! They also have seasonal offerings (like pumpkin and apply crisp for fall). Two of us ordered a medium cup to share, which includes 3 scoops! Our fave of the 3 was the coffee Kahlua brownie, which has a very rich flavor, followed by the peanut butter Oreo. The choc chip cookie dough was mostly vanilla with only a few pieces of dough, unfortunately. But a good vanilla nonetheless. All three flavors were very creamy and easy to eat. We had to slow down to not finish the entire cup in one sitting! The prices are affordable, and they also offer pints - dangerous! I'll obviously need to come back often to try more flavors, and provide a more definitive flavor ranking. Stay tuned! read more

This ice cream stand is super convenient as it's located on Main Street in Malden. I thought this was an ice cream shop; however, it's only a stand with a couple benches. There is no parking lot -- you can park on the street and walk up. There is a huge selection of ice cream flavors. They have hard serve, soft serve, italian ice, sundaes, etc. I've tried a handful of flavors and I must say, my all time favorite ice cream flavors are toll house cookie and strawberry cheesecake!! Both the price point and portion size is great! I usually only end up paying $5 for a small in a cup; I can share this with my boyfriend. read more

Dairy Delight - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Malden, Massachusetts

My favorite ice cream place in the area. Huge selection, delicious ice cream, gigantic portions. My favorite in the summer time (for now) is the gellati. Try the vanilla soft serve with orange cream slush. It's a creamsicle on steroids. So yummy and refreshing!! read more

Tons of flavors, can't wait to go back and try more. Lots of toppings as well. Line doesn't move too quickly as the person taking the order then gets the ice cream, so you may be waiting. read more

Vibes of a small town ice cream joint with elevated flavors. Busy line, not the most efficient service but not slow either.

Wow wow wow. This place is amazing. I wish this ice cream shop was opened all year around. I would literally go every day if I could never gain weight haha. The option! They have it all.. I normally head over after dinner as a little treat or a pick me up if needed. A small is the perfect size for me. Sometimes I cant finish it and just toss it in the freezer and save it for the following day. Their portions are oh so worth it! The first time I came here I made a mistake on getting a medium haha oops. That was my first and last time. Small is perfect and I could stilll mix and match my scoops of ice cream with different flavors. My favorrite is the toll house cookie and strawberry cheesecake!!! I love the fact that this is walking distance from me lol. But if I felt lazy I could definitely drive up as well and park right in front of the shop- Street parking. The line moves pretty quickly even when there's a long line past the liquor store next door. I wish there was a place to eat at. There's a table or two and a bench but you have to be pretty lucky to get those seats because those are usually the first to go. read more

I can easily say that Dairy Delight is my favorite ice cream shop in Malden. They have a massive selection of ice cream, yogurts, sundaes, etc. on their menu. I've had their cotton candy ice cream in the past and loved it. However, I always come for the slush. I know you can get Richie's slush at most ice cream shops in the area but Dairy Delight carries the largest selection I've seen (outside of the Richie's in Everett) that ranges from Swedish fish to orange cream to pina colada and my personal favorite's always been the blue vanilla. I feel like you really can't beat the price too and they always fill up the cup more than generously. The workers are also always great too and I could not recommend coming here enough. read more

Dairy Delight - Medium!?!? Coffee Kahlua Brownie in a waffle cone - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Malden, Massachusetts

Great absolutely huge soft service almost too big. One of the best ice cream places around definitely old school.

Great variety of flavors and really good portions! No joke... a kiddie is enough for one person, the small is pretty big. Friendly staff and good service. Only drawback is the line can get long (especially in the summer) but that is because they are so good. No indoor seating and minimal outdoor seating but there is plenty of places to park, so I usually just eat from my car. read more

The best around! So many options you'll probably be scratching your head for 10 min before you order. What I really like is that if I want something prepared a specif way or I want a smoothie flavor made into a milkshake they take the time to do it. Great product and service, wonderful homey ambience, take this place over a carvel/dairy queen any day! read more

Small seasonal ice cream shop with all kinds of frozen desserts, from sundae to frozen yogurt to slushie...everything you can dream of is here at Dairy Delight. I got the Mocha Twist soft serve, small. They must have a different definition for small.... Flavor was delicious, texture was smooth and creamy. If you are ever in Malden, be sure to stop by here for some frozen delights. read more

Dairy Delight - This is small? - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Malden, Massachusetts

Stopped by for a dessert after a big dinner. I always have room for desserts :) Anyways, my boyfriend and I ordered the basic chocolate ice cream (he's a fan of chocolate) and a green tea ice cream. The green tea isn't super matcha-y so don't expect that. Their scoops are huge so be prepared! There's also an eclectic board with tons of flavors so I'm sure you'll find something you like. It's a great option if you want a lot for a minimal amount of $$. Definitely check it out if you're in the area :) read more

Dairy Delight - Chocolate and green tea! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Malden, Massachusetts

Absolutely love them! My fiancé and I live 5 min away from them and we come all the time! We miss it so much when they close and honestly count down for when they reopen! They are a bit pricey honestly but their portions are soooo big! A small size in my opinion is close to a large. So much ice cream that the price is worth it! read more

Dairy Delight - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Malden, Massachusetts

Ice cream stand with a few benches/chairs outside. Got a medium (3 scoops) with blueberry pie, tollhouse cookie and green tea. Blueberry pie and tollhouse cookie tasted exactly as you'd imagine! Green tea tasted very bland and like they added green food coloring. Medium was enough to share between 2 people. I'd stop by again, I just wouldn't get green tea. Reasonably priced and free 15 min parking in front. read more

Huge sundae sizes and a really great selection of flavors. They also have slush (or if you're a jersey girl like me you call it water ice) along with hard frozen yogurts, soft serve, smoothies, the works. It's a great little stop and fairly affordable considering the amount of icecream you get compared to other icecream places in the city! read more

Dairy Delight - Brownie sundae - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Malden, Massachusetts

I've been going here since I was a baby, and it's my favorite ice cream shop in the universe. When I'd ask for a Moosetracks with extra heath I'd actually get EXTRA HEATH (some places are like, here's an extra teaspoon full, you're welcome). A lot of people exclaim, "THAT'S A SMALL!??" thinking they were gonna get a dinky cup of ice cream and its two full scoops. A large is what i call my summer Sunday night dinner. There isn't any seating inside, but there are some cow colored benches and chairs out front. They are open from sometime in April till Memorial Day (October). read more

my favorite place to get ice cream! my fiancé and i come here all the time and everything we have had has been great. staff is super nice and service is great. read more

As classic of a neighborhood ice cream stand as you can get. This place is dangerously close to my home, and in the summer, just the sight of people lining up at the building with the goofy cows painted on the side makes me smile. This is the kind of place every neighborhood needs. It doesn't hurt that their ice cream is really good, and the portions enormous. Seriously, the first time I came here, I got a small, and I actually struggled to finish it. Now I get their smallest size, which I think is called the "teenie", and it's still a sizable portion. I love their selection of flavors, though they are not all created equal. My husband raved about his almond joy, and I do love their peanut butter cup and peanut butter Oreo, but the strawberry cheesecake was icy and another flavor my husband got wasn't his favorite either. That said, we still love this place and will continue to support them for years to come. read more

Huge selection of Richardson's ice cream! I ended ordering a kiddie sized crunchasaurus with a chocolate & sprinkles dipped cone. The ice cream was amazing and the colors looked super fun! Honestly, I am quite torn between giving this place a 3 or 4 stars. Although I really enjoyed my ice cream, I find this place to be a little pricier than Spadadoras, where you can get the same thing for. I also didn't enjoy my dipped cone because I felt like it was old. The chocolate was rock hard and it honestly tasted like sugar. I couldnt taste the chocolate. If I had to choose, I'd rather go to spadaforas, unless they don't have an ice cream flavor that dairy delight offers. read more

Okay- I admit that I stopped for the adorable cow murals and the flashy black and white spots. But I stayed for the big menu! How impressive is it that such a little place has such a wide variety of not only flavors, but toppings and other treats too? There's even benches and chairs to enjoy your ice cream right away. Dairy Delight knows delayed gratification is overrated. read more

Great ice cream counter with tons of options! On one of the first real days of Spring weather, we found this spot while in the area. We parked on a side-street and walked up to this dairy cow painted ice cream shop. They have it all! Hard serve, soft serve, frozen yogurt, shakes, sundaes. I ordered the fantom raspberry after having a sample. Raspberry ice cream, brownie pieces, and swirls of fudge served in a waffle cone. The one scoop was huge and I could barely finish it! My husband ordered a medium coconut shake which he said was refreshing. For these two we paid around $9. They have friendly service and encourage you to sample flavors! read more
