We actually ended up here completely by accident. We were driving around the area when my wife, who…read morewas born in Bavaria and is very unapologetically German, spotted the name and the building and immediately decided that we needed to stop. Apparently, whatever I had planned for the afternoon was no longer relevant. I can't really argue with the decision because this turned out to be such a fun and unique place. The first thing you notice is that this isn't just an ice cream shop. There are multiple rooms filled with candy, chocolates, treats and all sorts of things that make you want to slow down and look at everything. There is a slightly retro feel to the whole place, and I mean that in the best possible way. You can very easily lose track of time wandering from room to room, looking at the candy, checking out the chocolates and trying to decide what you absolutely need to take home. Then there is the ice cream. The sundaes are fantastic because you get to build your own and load them up with whatever toppings you want. And they aren't stingy with the toppings, either. The ice cream itself was delicious, with a great selection of flavors, and the whole experience of putting together your own sundae makes it especially fun if you're with kids. Although, judging by my wife's reaction, you don't actually have to be a kid to enjoy it. They also make their own ice cream and have a wide variety of candies and chocolates made in-house. You absolutely need to try some of the "in haus" chocolates while you're there. There is something particularly satisfying about buying something that was actually made right there rather than grabbing another generic packaged candy bar. The staff were incredibly friendly and added to the experience. Everyone seemed genuinely welcoming, which is important in a place like this because you want to be able to wander around, ask questions and take your time looking at everything. Nobody made us feel rushed, and there is so much to see that rushing would almost defeat the purpose. This is a great place for the entire family. Kids are going to love the candy and ice cream, adults will appreciate the nostalgic atmosphere and the homemade treats, and honestly, everyone is going to walk out with something they didn't intend to buy. We certainly did. My wife may have had something slightly different in mind when she decided we needed to stop here, but she walked out looking like a little kid who had just been turned loose in a candy store, carrying a sundae, candies and chocolates. I wasn't exactly empty-handed myself. A really fun and unexpected find in the Lakes Region. If you're anywhere around Lake Winnipesaukee, this is absolutely worth a stop. It's charming, a little nostalgic, completely indulgent and just plain fun. I can see why people consider it one of the area's best-kept candy secrets. We'll definitely be back.

I've been coming to Kellerhaus since I was a kid, and I've always had a good experience. I haven't…read morebeen in a few years and they've made some updates that I don't exactly agree with. The flavor options and pricing are at the cash register and you can't really see either from afar, which makes it feel rushed when you get to that point. The pricing I think is getting pretty high for what it is. They no longer scoop the ice cream in front of you - the ice cream is around the corner. When we got to the smorgasbord, the whipped cream wasn't working/was empty. The workers didn't seem to want to fix it, and once you leave the line you can't re-enter. Pretty disappointing to not be able to get their homemade whipped cream they rave about. For almost $9 for a one scoop make-your-own before tax, it was honestly not a great experience today. We miss the nostalgia of this place - it's becoming more industrialized and less sentimental.

I was recently on a trip to NH and tried various different ice cream places; Milltuck was the last…read moreplace we tried and we definitely saved the best for last! This small ice cream shop is on a farm and they use their own milk to make their ice creams. There a variety of outdoor seating options such as Adirondack chairs, a swinging bench and picnic tables. There's also a play ground and a goat feeding area. The service was friendly. For scoops, you can get a cone (they only offer waffle cones that they make in house for $1), waffle bowl or a dish. They also offer shakes, sundaes and floats. The prices are kind of high; $9 for three scoops and $1 for a cone plus tax. But, the ice cream is really creamy, flavorful and loaded with chunks, which I like. My friend got a pistachio ice cream and it was LOADED with CRUNCHY salted pistachios... I've never had an ice cream in which the pistachios were crunchy! I wished I had ordered that after I saw hers come out. I got three scoops: campfire delight (s'mores), mocha chip and peanut butter Oreo. I wanted to get the blueberry crumble, but it sold out two customers ahead of me. The campfire delight had a bunch of mini marshmallows and decent size chocolate chunks. The mocha chip had a good coffee chocolate flavor and a nice amount of large chocolate chunks, not merely chips. The peanut butter Oreo had a rich peanut butter flavor. The setting was also great to relax & enjoy our frozen delights! If I lived there it would be a special occasion treat because of the price; since I visit NH about once a year, I will go to Milltuck every time!

I walked up and the two teen girls behind the counter were eating ice cream and just talking and didn't even acknowledge that my friend or I was there. I asked if they were open and the one in the blue just said "yeah" in an unkind tone. So then my friend ordered and paid and the girl in the gray sweatshirt took care of them and she was fine. The one in the blue proceeded to ignore me and act as if I wasn't there until she finally just looked at me (never asked if I was ready to order) and then I ordered. The ice cream is Hershey's so it's fine the milkshake was too milky and thin. Overall, poor service, good location and fine product. It could be the makings of a great business if they changed some things.

I could maybe justify boutique, Michelin-star pricing if the ice cream were hand-churned on-site with local, seasonal ingredients, but this is just Richardson's. Richardson's is good ice cream, but it definitely shouldn't require a payment plan. While the first bite was tasty, the rest of the tiny cup was plagued with freezer burn/ice chips. To top it off, my son deeply regretted spending approx $10 of his own hard-earned money on a single-flavor frappe that turned out to be completely ordinary and was underfilled. With service as cold as its ice cream and astronomical prices, this experience didn't come close to the old-school quality of "Deer Cap." Here's hoping management decides to scrap the shrinkflation, upgrade their customer service (please treat teens as you would an adult, they are paying customers and they notice when they're being dismissed), and start handing out actual adult-sized cups and spoons. I truly want to see our local businesses succeed and thrive, so I genuinely hope management takes this feedback to heart and makes some adjustments.

Our tour guide was a super nice guy who's obviously passionate about his job and NH, but he didn't stop chatting the entire time. He told us about every house on the lake, history of the lake, all the tea about people in the area, etc. While we appreciated his knowledge and passion, we felt that we couldn't get off the boat fast enough, as we would have been more relaxed at the bar or in our room. If the cruise had some nice music on, provided a few blankets (that were clean unlike the one he handed me) and offered the option for snacks/beverages, it would have been much more enjoyable. But the price tag for a 90 minute informational cruise with consistent talking and other passengers' phone loudly playing the ymca... was less than worth it.

The place scoops up a variety of Gifford's Ice Cream (about 26 flavors), cones, cups, waffle cones, sundaes, banana splits, smart water, and ice cream nachos. The ice cream prices before tax (in 2021) seem fair including 1 scoop (minnow) $3.00, 2 scoops (small mouth bass) $4.50, and 3 scoops (large mouth bass) $5.50. The ice cream nachos (3 scoops with all toppings and crumbled waffle cone) is $7.00. I got a Root Beer Float ($5 plus $0.45 tax) here recently which had vanilla ice cream with Barq's Root Beer, a good refreshing standby on a hot day and minimal mess.
