    One of the best ice cream shops in my many years of eating ice cream
    John S.

    What can I say? Finger licking, superb, laudable, meritorious...... I've had ice cream in many states and for many years. Some were too fatty for my tastes. Some were somewhat tasteless. The ice cream here, after 3 visits is exceptional. Among the best I have ever had.

    Cherry vanilla was outstanding!
    Edward K.

    My friend and I had dinner nearby and after strolling around the most charming downtown, headed into Denville Dairy. We quickly realized that the entire town loves their ice cream and after taking a number, settled in for a brief wait. That gave us time to decide on the perfect store made ice cream flavor. The woman that took our order was pleasant and efficient. The small size is a solid amount of ice cream flavor, they limit you to one flavor until you hit the medium size. That allowed me to truly taste the cherry vanilla on its own. Very high quality! My friend enjoyed the coffee Oreo flavor. Denville Dairy is the kind of ice cream spot that every town needs!

    PROS: ice cream was good, strong variety, clean, staff was friendly CONS: no tables to sit at, just some stone bench OVERALL: as long as you're okay with the sitting arrangements, I recommend this place

    Picked up the Oreo icecream today after lunch and Found it was amazing. It was creamy and yummy. The inside of this place look's pretty like any other icecream store and the serving was made fast. A must try in this area.

    Eaten mint chocolate chip
    Marisa M.

    Loved the mint chocolate chip hard ice cream. We got a small with chocolate sprinkles. The line moved quick and there were plenty of people enjoying their ice cream inside and outside. The ice cream was super thick and creamy and had a nice kind flavor, plenty of chocolate chips and was not too sweet. It cost over $6 which I thought was a lot at first but the small was very big and shareable. I got full about halfway through and couldn't finish. I would love to try to move flavors

    Denville Dairy is a small-to-medium shop with a lot of energy and charm. They've got a full team keeping the line moving, even when it's busy. Tons of flavors to choose from--both hard and soft serve. I went with cherry vanilla and a salted caramel variation, and both were super creamy and delicious. Perfect treat for the beautiful Easter weekend weather!

    We paid a visit to Denville Dairy for our guys night and it was incredible. The store is super clean, and looks like your classic ice cream shop. The staff were all super friendly and accommodating allowing us to sample flavors we thought we might like. The ice cream itself, was some of the best I've ever had. I got the snowball flavor which was a mix of coconut flavored ice cream with marshmallow and pieces of chocolate cake. This was one of the most flavorful and creamy cups of ice cream I've ever had. Top 5 ice cream experience of mine for sure. This place is 30 minutes from me but the ice cream is so good that it's worth the drive!

    Loved the welcoming vibes and the ice cream was great. I'd be here and Pasta Shop every week if I lived nearby.

    Small Oreo Cream ($6)

    The staff here is super friendly and let us sample some flavors before committing on one! The Oreo Cream flavor was really flavorful and the texture was perfect! Definitely would come back and recommend if your in the area

    Mint chip and strawberry
    Brenna F.

    Came here after dinner at the pasta shop after hearing so many great things about it. The place is cute and the staff were all super nice. A lot of good flavors to choose from and the mint chip and strawberry were both great. Will definitely come back when we're in the area!

    Kiddie Cup of Chocolate Marshmallow
    Dan M.

    This was a small spot with an extremely long line on a hot weekend summer night. They had a numbering system for the ordering which worked well. Besides a number of different flavors of ice cream, they had a lot of variety of it such as pies, sandwiches, cakes, etc. I had a kiddie cup ($3.25) of chocolate marshmallow. This was very good and flavorful. There was an ideal balance of chocolate and marshmallow taste. The chocolate was not too overpowerful. The ice cream as a whole was very creamy and fulfilling. I also tried the Denville flood mudd, which was a seasonal flavor. It was made up of chocolate ice cream with chocolate whipped cream, chocolate covered peanuts, cookie crunch, and homemade brownies. This was solid as well. Somehow, there was not too much of a chocolate overload. It just all worked together. I just did not like the brownie. Will I go back? Yeah.

    Came here for the first time three weeks ago after being recommended by numerous people. I ended up getting an ice cream flavor called American Pie which was made with real strawberries and blueberries, which was super refreshing during the brutal heat. One of the biggest sewing points to me which I'll be going back for is the Sunkist soda fountain (my favorite soft drink). The service was good, it seems like a very well oiled machine. I was surprised to see so many chest freezers, assuming they sell a lot of ice cream!

    Strawberry cheesecake - single scoop
    Katie N.

    Cute little shop. I saw crowds outside while walking in the area, so I figured it would be good for a tasty treat. You take a number from the machine and wait your turn. I think the crowds seemed large just because impatient children were everywhere. Staff seemed to manage the crowds well. I had a single scoop of strawberry cheesecake, and it was tasty. Perfect for an after dinner treat.

    Possibly the smoothest, creamiest rum raisin ice cream I've ever had! This place is busy with locals, and I can see why.

    My fiance and I were taking a walk in town when we noticed a sidewalk sign outside of Sweet…read moreExpressions saying "Free Cheesecake Sample Upstairs". So as any normal human being would do at 10 am on a Sunday morning, you would at least check it out...right? So we did. All my fiance was saying was how cool the colors were and how everything was so bright and colorful on our way up the steep stairs. I guess you have to get a work out before you enter sweet heaven. Once we finally entered the medium sized bakery, it's not your typical bakery you are thinking of. After a little perusing it felt as though we were walking into someone's kitchen. We were greeted by the owner, Lisa, and chatted about her business which just started up. Their niche is biscotti, cookies and some cakes. She had us sample a few of her biscotti. They were awesome. So much so, that we ended up buying 2 of each (there were 8 varieties) for a family function. Some definite's: Lemon Bliss, Chocolate Hysteria (Dark Chocolate w/cayenne pepper -- strange combo but fantastic!), Almond Joyful and Sicilian Sunburn to name a few. Check out her site to find out more about what's in them. She even let us try her homemade pignoli cookie...chewy, soft and delicious! I would highly suggest giving this place a try. They do not have Italian pasties or bread so don't think it's a traditional bakery. Plus you can go downstairs to Sweet Expressions and gorge yourself into a chocolate coma. ENJOY!

    Best Gluten-Free Bakery!…read more Ive been to tons of gluten free bakeries and Sweet Niche is by far the best! The crumb cake and brownies are to die for and everyone I give them to do not believe me when i tell them they are gluten free! My husband eats their non gluten free (even though he LOVES all the gf goodies!) stuff and can't say enough great things about this place! The biscotti is unique and everyone needs to try it! The owner is so nice and helpful and really enjoys what she does! She make you want to keep going back, but then you try her baked goods, and you must go back for more! Sweet-Niche is a gem and your really missing out if you haven't had it yet!

    OMG The Vikingos Bakery in Denville is tops! We stopped in…read morethe other day to get a dessert tray, and boy did they make a fantastic tray for our event Everyone at our dessert table asked where we got the cookies and desserts and we told them the bakery in Denville that is just amazing Staff is friendly efficient. Everything is fresh and just taste so good they wrapped it up and it look like a wedding gift.

    Attempt number one: hours on door- 6 pm closing time. We were there at 2:30, entire joint closed…read moredown for the day. Boo. We went to our fave spot instead. Attempt number two: Husband grabbed an assortment to try: crumb cake, m&m cookie, brownie, pretty standard stuff. He mentioned to me that the boy behind the counter mentioned that the cookies 'just came out.' WELL. Ugh. They did not, in fact, just come out, young sir. Stale, tasteless, fall apart- shellack like cookies. Crumb cake topping was oddly orange, and also stale and tasteless. The brownie I didn't even get to taste, and I couldn't get photos of anything either b/c hubs tossed it all in the trash after making a frownie-face over the not good brownie place. Anyways, I miss the old Vikingos. And luckily the French bakery in town is bomb (it replaced the gross ass (sorry, to their cult following) Mara's 'bakery.' End rant.

    Beignets is on the list of places that I wanted to check out if I'm ever in Denville and I finally…read moremade it. Let me first start off by saying that the beignets I had were heavenly. Light, fluffy, not too sweet, with a messy but delicious showering of powdered sugar. I would definitely stop by for their fresh, fluffy beignets to be eaten fresh because they make them fresh with every order! Just for their amazing beignets, it should be 5 stars. My friend also got a chai latte, which my friend actually really liked. She said it was one of the best she's ever had. I tried and it was really good, just super sweet. Taste-wise though - delicious! BUT I gave 4 stars because when I went, they were out of the other things I wanted and it wasn't clearly advertised so the poor girl helping me had to keep telling me sad news, one after another. I wish there was a sign stating if something was unavailable or they should've put away displays if items were not available. My friend wanted gelato because there was a picture of it displayed, but they said they didn't have that. Is it only a summer thing? Were they not serving gelato just for that day? I don't know, it was just unavailable. They really should not mislead customers by displaying the picture of the pretty gelato (the picture looked really good!). This also meant that I couldn't get the affogato because they weren't serving gelato. Again, the menu didn't clearly state they were not serving that drink. I also stopped by here specifically because I saw an Instagram post that their hot cocoa was one of the best. The "toasted" one was the one I wanted, but it was not available because they didn't have the marshmallow. Again, that one wasn't covered with a sign that it was unavailable. I ended up getting a drink somewhere else. Also, when we wanted a receipt, the girl helping us said it wasn't working. So it was just a bad timing that day. Poor girl was super nice as she delivered rejections, but I was still constantly disappointed. Again, if I'm ever in the area, I would definitely be back for their beignets and hopefully that next time, the menus will be more clear about what they have and don't have. Things to know before you go: -They have a lot of different donut flavors and fillings, which I didn't try. But make sure to prepare enough time to wait for them to be made fresh and depending on how busy they are at the time you go. It looks like it's worth the wait because so many people got several donuts. -There were about four 2-person tables and one table for 4-5 people and a couch for 2 people to sit snugly. So, not the best place for big groups.
