A local institution and for good reason...old fashioned atmosphere and service. Always a fun time and a great bowl of ice cream!

Just thinking about this place makes me happy. It always reminds me of summer and family and simpler times in life...I live in San Francisco now but am already plotting a trip here on my next visit out east. Delicious ice cream, amazing hot fudge, and perfect after a day at Craigville beach, or as a night-time treat. read more

Great ice cream - top of the line, made in house stuff. Loses a star for not having jimmies.

I am not a big ice cream eater - but family is and they couldn't get enough. Strawberry was fantastic - kids loved the various varieties and pricing while no means cheap was not bad. And the staff was great. They even do an ok cheap sandwich and chips - though did not try the lobster sandwich (3x the price of the others). read more

Only 1 yogurt flavor a day. Don't have jimmies or sprinkles. Don't have waffle cones. For $5.75 you get basically get 1 scoop in a cup and they call it a large. Most likely I will not go here again. Their flavors are very boring compared to other ice cream shops that are not that far away from it. read more

Oh so good! Just the best, freshest tasting ice cream. All favors were good. We ate there at least once a day. Ice cram for breakfast? Yes, please! Wish we could get it in Los Angeles. Worth a trip to the cape. read more

BEST ICE CREAM EVER! i believe the staffis hired based on their grades and it makes sense since theyre making change in their head. The coconut and black raspberry are to die for! it is soooooooo good! read more

The best of the best. Exceptional quality ice cream and sandwiches served by efficient, energetic high school and college students in an old-fashioned setting. The fundamentals never change here. The line can sometimes be long, but it moves remarkably fast. And there's that quirky policy about cash-only. But those "negatives" just add to the charm. Relax and enjoy! read more

Best ice cream!!! Creamy and flavorful. Sweet employee helped us and it was like a little piece of the 1950's so cute. Even though there was a line and it seemed very busy the line moved and we were served right away. Worth the trip! Only thing was they had run out of a bunch of flavors but I guess I'll have to get there earlier next time! read more

Ive been coming here since I was 5 and my kids still are loving this place. I wouldn't order food (A PB+J took 45 minutes??? and my wife offered to make it herself) but the ice cream is the best in the world. Peppermint stick is amazing! read more

IMHO, no trip to or vacation on the Cape would be complete without a visit to Four Seas Ice Cream in Centerville. My first visit was in the late 60's while staying in Cotuit where I had my first hot fudge sundae with chocolate chip. To this day, I have yet to sample ice cream as fresh and delicious as theirs. read more

Ridiculous. Don't waste your time and money here. If I could rate it 0 stars I would. The line was out the door and once we got in they told us there was "plenty of space" inside. We waited patiently for our turn to order and after waiting and calling for our turn to order, they looked at us and said "I don't know whose next" and picked a customer that was in the other line that they split once we got through the door. We spoke up twice and they completely ignored us and we left after waiting for 20 minutes. Even the people behind us agreed it wasn't right what they did and we were most definitely next. Never going there again, wouldn't know how good the ice cream was if they didn't serve us. We won't be back and you can bet we're telling all our friends and family about this issue. read more

Been here a few times over the years. Recently went again and was not as good as I remember. The ice cream was very soft. The maple walnut had ice crystals in it. The cantaloupe was ok but tasted bland and had the texture of Hood ice cream. Maybe it was an off night. I used to love the mint chip. read more

My favorite ice cream shop in the world. A Cape Cod landmark, I can't visit without stopping in for some scoops of homemade heaven. It can get pretty packed (this spot is no secret, it's nationally renowned) but it's worth any wait. If you want some light food, order a sandwich in the classic dining area. But there's nothing like grabbing a cone or cup for the parking lot on a hot summer day, I enjoy the milkshakes too. I've had cousins who have worked here over the years so I grew up on their pints, and it's been a privilege. Can't go wrong with any flavor, but I think they have the best chocolate ice cream of all time. Other favorites are chocolate chip cookie dough, butter crunch, coffee, and mocha chip. read more

Just go... no words do this place justice! Mocha Chip is AMAZING. Can only have one a month during the summer, otherwise i would be in BIG trouble. It is so worth the experience, you walk in and it smells like an old school ice cream parlor! Just incredible AND their lobster rolls are an even better treat, ALL lobster- so worth it! read more

The best ice cream I have ever had. I tried the coconut and strawberry during my week on the Cape and both were fantastic. It is a small shop and gets busy but there are lots of people behind the counter so it moves quickly. Do not miss it if in the area. My only suggestion would be to add a few picnic tables outside so you can sit and enjoy rather than standing in the parking lot. read more

Mothers day 2015 I took my 95 year old mother for lunch and then thought I'd take her for a little ice cream. Never thought it would be as "little" as it ended up. First, some of the flavors had an X next to them indicating they are not available yet pre season. I didn't read the instructions about the "X" properly and the woman server was so rude about it. I finally decided what favors I wanted much to the woman's impatience. I didn't want a big portion so I ordered the kiddie size. Most summer ice cream places the kiddie size is still a decent enough scoop. By the way, the prices for sizes small, medium or large serving are all listed on the wall, but not the kiddie size. I wound up paying $3.25 each for the tiniest most insulting tease of a scoop I have ever seen in all my years of eating ice cream, which is a lot, and my mother is 95 and same for her. It was like the size of a dixie cup but made of paper and half the height of a dixie cup and it contained a mini sized scoop of ice cream for $3.25! The container is something you put ketchup in at a seafood takeout place. For $3.90, 65 cents more each, I could have had the size small and at least wouldn't have felt so utterly robbed. The ice cream was very good, but outrageously priced to rip families off. SHAME ON YOU Four Seas. Never again. I will go to Friendly's on 132 to get a decent size for the same price. read more

I have dreams about this place all year long waiting for it to open. Coconut is my favorite but they are all just so good and I love that it has not changed over the 40 years we have been going there. I even served it at my wedding. Worth waiting in line for and thank you for keeping the legacy alive! read more

My favorite sweet spot in the cape! So many memories that continue generation after generation! Great service and delicious ice cream! Highly recommend the cantaloupe and peach, my sister would say peppermint stick, and peanut butter chocolate chip! My son would go everyday just for their vanilla! That in itself should speak about how delicious their ice cream is!! We will be back next summer!!!! read more

purchased some buttercrunch ice cream sold under 4 seas label sold at fancys and ice cream was sub par quality of4 seas. Hardly any crunches. Maybe just a bad batch as 4 seas is usually top notch read more

It isn't a trip to Cape Cod without a stop at 4 Seas Ice Cream ! It was my favorite place as a child and now a favorite place to take my own kids! Not to be missed. Wonderful creamy ice cream...the way it should be! read more

I thought I had the best ice cream spot... and then I moved to the Cape! Four Seas has the best ice cream in the world! The consistency is extra creamy and the portions are extra big. My favorite is the Rum and Butter.. perfect after a day at the beach! The lines are usually long, but move fast and definitely worth the wait. A long standing Cape favorite....can't be missed! read more

YUMMY!!! A local ice cream institution that delivers great tasting ice cream. I have never had a bad flavor at Four Seas. It can get really crowded so be prepared to wait or plan to come at an off time. read more

we only went here once during our stay as there are many ice cream places on the cape. I felt very rushed to choose a flavor since they were so busy! It would have been nice if some of the flavors had descriptions so you knew what was in there. It was also extremely hot inside the store. Overall the icecream was ok which was kind of dissappointing since it got rave reviews. read more

Oh my!! Oh my!! Oh my!! This was the best ice cream I have ever had in all my 56 years on this earth!!! My friend and I had seen a show at the Tent and went the wrong way back to find our hotel. It is the best mistake I have ever made. We came across Four Seas totally by accident. Being the ice cream hound that I am I had to end a good day by stopping. It certainly made my day Great!! The ice cream was to die for!! I have some basic flavors I like but decided to change it up a bit, what's vacation for, and tried their Rum Butter. Oh my!! Oh my!!! I can't tell you what a wonderful flavor! I must say the young lady that waited on us, Emily, was a true delight!! She added to the heaven my mouth was in with her wonderful personality and intelligence. I am going back to the Cape in another week and I am definitely going to find this place and indulge in some more!!! In both their ice cream and their wonderful personable staff!! Thank you Four Seas!!! Michelle, Burrillville, RI read more

best mint chip ice cream ever/anywhere just a solid cape spot a must for tourists and vets alike read more

Went for the first time and was better than expected. I was on the Cape for the day and decided to sample a couple places for ice cream I had not tried prior. Earlier in the day I had a kiddie dish at a near by competitor which was okay but not very creamy. I went to Four Seas to sample another kiddie size dish only to find a opening weekend sale of pints which were less money than a small dish! Needless to say after sampling the flavor bought a pint of penuche pecan. The ice cream was hard as they seem to be prepacked but as the treat soften the ice cream was one of the creamiest I had. I gave five stars because the ice cream portion was large and priced less than a cone. Next, the staff was so nice and allowed me to eat the pint at the counter. Finally, I went on a Monday mid day and encountered no lines! Some helpful advice as the sign states all flavors are available in the prepacked pints while the flavors available by scoop may be limited to what is made. Second, if you just want single flavor dish ( especially medium or large size) the pint may be the most economical choice, read more

this is the place to get your ice cream its rocky road is amazing and if you come in the morning its not super bizy.
