Everyone enjoyed the cake and asked, "Where is the ice cream cake from?" If you have a peanut butter lover in your life, I highly recommend this peanut butter themed ice cream cake. Aside from this custom order, we are regular customers. The ice cream sundaes are our favorite. You always get good portions (scoops) served. The medium is almost too much for me. That's a good thing. Chocolate Chip Mint, Hot Fudge, Whipped Cream, and topped with M & Ms is my favorite.

I opted for the classic chocolate soft serve and it did not disappoint. We came in around 2 pm and there was no one else inside, service was very fast. They don't have any parking lot so you kind of just have to pull up in front of the building (there isn't true street parking either), but it wasn't an issue for us since there was no one else there. They also have a coffee shop inside which I will have to make another stop to try soon. This place definitely deserves more recognition and I can't wait to come back soon to try some new flavors!

I'd compare it to Penn State (main campus) creamery. Absolutely amazing. 100/10. Every flavor is a perfect balance of sweet, creamy and delicious. I run for it every chance I get. My go to is a regular mint chip & cookie dough in a cup w/ rainbow sprinkles. Hubs likes the topside sundae. Simply amazing. The staff are friendly and efficient too, which is just an added bonus. Takeout counter is well managed, and they have tables out front to sit and enjoy. Easy free parking in back too.

I got a small cup ($6) which comes in three scoops and allows up to three flavors. I got the pistachio, banana chip and strawberry. Overall the flavors were good.

Do NOT sleep on Big Dipper Ice Cream! This place blew my mind with the amount of ice cream flavors…read morethey had to offer. I made the mistake of coming here solo and then having to call hubby to read to him alllll the flavors because I couldn't dare do that for him. One flavor sounds better than the next - strawberry cheese cake - what?! Moosetracks? Yeah, i'm gonna need that too! Then they trip you up with toppings! Too many decisions! I'm on vacation! I opted to get two scoops for each of us because no one walks outta here with just one. I got the strawberry cheesecake and moosetracks - a deadly sinful combo, while I got for hubby pistachio and cookies n' cream. We didn't come up for air while eating these! I found these flavors to be far superior to Ship Bottom Ice Cream - yes - I said it! There's a reason why everyone comes here as soon as the sun comes down. It's a great little family establishment with the hardest working teenagers and young adults I've ever seen. Sit on the benches outside or drive back to your beach rental and enjoy while watching the sunset. HUGE fan!

Go here for the best ice-cream on the island and huge generous portions! We've been coming here for…read moreyears and keep coming back despite trying many other ice-cream joints on the island. This is our go to!! I love the coconut icecream with rainbow sprinkles and get it everytime. HUGE Generous portions and toppings!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE that they put sprinkles at the bottom of the cup before your ice-cream is scooped to ensure you get sprinkles in every bite! This is a key differentiator that will bring me back every time!! With this "small size" barely anyone is able to finish it...they say it's two scoops but you know no scoop like the Big Dipper...it does live up to its name! If you ever saw the movie Uncle Buck the best way to describe the portions if you imagine how it was when uncle buck has to "eat and finish the grizzle" for the steak eating competition and it's nearly impossible! I used to get a lid and would save 1/2 in our freezer when we were staying in Harvey cedars but now we are further away so that's no longer an option. TIP: After several years of ordering the "small" (which is anything but small) I noticed they have a "Little Dipper single scoop" option and went this route this time without whipcream or the cherry...which was a smart choice...as it was still a generous portion but I was able to finish it this time! Before, I felt like I was often unable to finish the "small" and felt bad throwing out 1/2 the ice-cream...every time...there's so much wasted. One time I told my son to just give me his mint chip before he threw it out because it's really a big enough portion for two to share. If I was having a birthday on the island I'd like to have an ice-cream cake from here bc Johnny's cakes look like the best ice-cream cakes I've ever seen outside of cold stone creamery. I'm always blown away at the people who order anything other than a small or even the banana splits which offer a ridiculous and obscene amount of dessert. The milk shakes also look amazing if you're into them. The only heads up I'd say is if you have a peanut allergy be careful because I did wind up with a few Reeces pieces in my topping which was actually a nice surprise/accident for me but might not be for everybody esp if you have an allergy. Kids bring your quarters! One other watch out: If you get a blue gum-ball make sure it's the cerulean lighter blue color vs the dark royal blue so you don't get your hopes up about getting a free ice-cream as was the case for us! The staff is always kind even though they have a huge line! No shirt, no shoes is no problem! However the floor is sooo gross and sticky I'd highly recommend wearing footwear!

The location is slightly off the highway so you might accidentally drive by, which would be a huge mistake. Miss Mindy clearly understands ambiance because she has created a fun and attractive ice cream parlor that appeals to the eye as well as to those who enjoy creamy rich ice cream and sundaes plus they have Vegan options for those wanting something sweet minus the incredible awesomeness that creamy ice cream like Miss Mindy's delivers. There is a wide array of ice cream flavor choices from the traditional to the sublime to the surprising (Earl Grey tea with lemon and shortbread... really yummy and I am thankful for sampling it.). Samples are encouraged and making that final decision is difficult but if you can't decide get a sampler box. The small sundaes are huge!! It was a happy ending ice cream stop ... they close for the winter but next ice cream stop I am sure you will find me and my grandson back at Miss Mindy's!
