Place lacks vegetarian options (only reason why they are getting 4 and not 5 stars). And that is only minus of it. I go there regularly and unlike someone else said it was always clean. Moment something gets spilled always someone running to clean it. Soft serve ice cream are always very custard like. I love them with scoop of orange sorbet. Cakes are piece of art made by owner. You can choose ice cream version or regular baked cake and in any shape possible. They have deli on one side and ice cream on the other so nothing gets contaminated. read more

I've been going to the ice cream station forever and always loved their ice cream. Earlier this week I stopped by for a quick come when I was driving by. There was a customer in front of me with adorable kids that were getting ice cream. When the woman behind the counter, who was not wearing gloves, finished with the customer in front of me took the customer's cash and made change - with bare hands. She then turned to me and asked what I wanted. I asked her if she could put gloves on she told me they do not have them. She said she washed her hands after making change - that was a lie. I stood there and watched her the whole time - she never stepped away and washed her hands ! I told her she didn't wash her hands and she continued to argue with me. I left the store and will not go back again. There are many many good ice cream places in the area read more

I have passed by this place many times. Finally, I decided to give it a try. I got the frozen yogurt with no sugar added. It didn't taste like frozen yogurt at all but more like a sugar-reduced frozen custard. I'm not sure if it's just me, but the worker seemed to be too busy to try to help me with my order. And the weirdest part was that there were no other customers. read more

Ice Cream Station - No sugar added vanilla froyo - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Pompton Lakes, New Jersey

I have ordered 3 cakes from them and have been very satisfied and impressed by the range of artistry. First time was last August for my engagement/birthday party. We ordered two cakes, one ice cream with my face - I can't imagine how long it takes to draw with icing! And a regular vanilla cake for the engagement (see pictures below). The ice cream cake was very tasty and perfect for a hot august day. The regular cake was moist and filling was great. The 3rd cake I ordered was for my birthday this year, and to announce my pregnancy. I simply texted a photo and got exactly what I wanted. Also, my brother had ordered a cake that I picked up. It was an outdoor picnic for my niece and the cake was too large to fit in the cooler but since it came super frozen - they told me to leave it out for an hour before serving - it was still intact by the time w reserved it (2.5hrs later but in an insulated cooler shopping bag - barely fit in the Costco one) read more

If you know me at all, you know cold weather will not keep me away from ice cream. I had a random craving for a treat on a snowy evening and my SO recommended I try Ice Cream Station. I'm always happy to visit a different place for ice cream and this location did not disappoint me. We were able to get street parking close to the building, there were also plenty of spots around after 7pm. My SO was excited to get their Reese's Blizzard dupe, but the person at the counter informed us their machines "just broke." As luck would have it, this happened right before our arrival, but we expect nothing less because it's so us. The machines were being taken apart to be repaired, but we wanted to order and get going. I chose a small cup of peanut butter twirl, which was delicious. The texture and flavor of my ice cream knocked it out of the park, while my SO enjoyed a milkshake. The portion sizes were also very fair for the prices, so I was happy with that. I will return at some point, hopefully while the machines are fully functioning. read more

Ice Cream Station - a variety of candy - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Pompton Lakes, New Jersey

While the ice cream was ok and although small I was satisfied with it, it is the manager or owner who left a bad taste in my mouth. We came here for dessert after dinner in town and proceeded to go inside because it was very hot. The owner turned us away and said wait in line outside in a very condescending tone. So I get in line outside and tell him the rest of my family will go inside and wait. I hate to make things about race but I really feel I need to here. As I'm next in line after waiting a while and only have one more person in front of my ordering, one of the girls comes from inside and escorts a Caucasian lady behind me inside and they take her ice cream order and she's done and gone by the time I'm up to order. I hear my two kids crying and my mom and sister inside while my husband and I are in line outside and patiently wait. The owner once I get to the window rudely asks me " if that group is with me and if I'm ordering" and I said yes that he said we could eat inside but I had to order outside. He was annoyed and left. Once I was done ordering I tried to asked multiple times if I could go inside and wait for my ice cream. They ignored me, then they make me pay and said I had to come inside to get the ice cream. It was frustrating and they were very rude and almost like they didn't want my business. I was polite and didn't get snappy with them even when I saw they gave special treatment to the lady behind me who didn't even wait more than 2 min while I wait almost 15min in line. Sadly I won't be returning. I don't recommended it with how rude they were. read more

A friend of mine recently moved to the area and we were in the mood for some ice cream. She knew the exact place to take me. We took about a five minute walk over to this adorable location. They have a wide variety of flavors and also offer Italian ice. The staff was very friendly and accommodating for some of our dietary restrictions. I had a small cup of cotton candy ice cream and it totally hit the spot. I definitely will be back. read more

Ice Cream Station - Cotton candy ice cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Pompton Lakes, New Jersey

Should be five stars because the young staff and the ice cream were great. Thumbs up to the employees who opened up more registers when they saw the line growing. Thumbs down to the man I am assuming was the manager speaking in a condescending tone to a young employee as she filled a fridge and he hovered over her. Didn't care for the patronizing tone he gave to a clearly hardworking employee as he micro-managed her. Ice cream was quite good. Had a peanut butter flurry. My other half had the salted caramel pretzel cone and raved about it. Generous portions and fair price. The staff were kind, helpful, and polite, so they were awesome. read more

Good ice cream, I have ordered a bunch of cakes for special occasions, and always seem to be a hit , good people, good neighborhood place .... read more

Amazing cakes from a lovely local business! They make really cool, artistic cakes for all occasions. The service is great too, very reliable. I've gotten custom cakes from them for graduations, birthdays, and recently my bridal shower. They draw realistic faces and other artwork on the top. We've tried their ice cream cakes and normal cakes and both are delicious. read more

The ice cream isn't great. If you read the ingredients in Gifford's you'll see... I've seen the owner be unprofessional towards his employees and be rude to customers. read more

Such an attitude from, I'm guessing the guy is the manager? Just bossing everyone around, telling them "Not like that." Talk about a micro-manager. Nice to customers, mean and belittling to staff. If the owners saw how he behaved they'd fire him on the spot. Let people do their job without hovering over them for every single little detail. It's freaking ice cream, not brain surgery. Why schedule other people to work if you're going to hover over them and berate them? Plus - what we were served was a teeny-tiny freezer-burned portion of ice cream for an arm and a leg. No thanks. read more

Found an acrylic nail inside of my pistachio icecream , disgusting , employees should be wearing gloves , i went back and they only offered to give me another ice cream which i declined. read more

My family has been using them for a couple years now for all special occasion ice cream cakes. They are the best around! Reasonably priced also. Owner is very friendly and will customize for you to your liking. Small inside with a couple booths and a couple tables for summer outside seating. Parking lot is tight to get out of but you can usually find close street parking. read more

Some employees making the ice cream were NOT wearing masks. People on line were NOT wearing masks. People ordering in the window NOT wearing masks. My boyfriend found a beetle in his MOUTH while halfway through ice cream in a cup. We received a refund for that item only. Whomever we spoke with made an excuse that it's summer and bugs can get in. Do NOT go here ever. read more

Just came and waited in a long line to get ice cream. Get to the serving window and not one (3 worker/) person serving was wearing a mask or gloves. Girl taking my order coughed into her hands - did not wash them. Will not be going there again. read more

Solid ice cream place! The have a small lot adjacent to the store, but there is also a bigger lot across the street. Any time I've gotten ice cream there, it's always been fresh and I've never had to wait a long time. Totally worth it if you're in Pompton. read more

Will never go here. Ice cream at a Supermarket will taste better than this place if I am being honest. The prices are crazy and the portion sizes are little to none and are not worth the prices. The owner is rude to the employees and honestly makes things that much worse. I would highly recommend going elsewhere for ice cream. Either until the owner is gone or the prices drop. either way him being there is not a good feeling at all. read more

This place has good ice cream. But I'm giving one star because the owner is so rude to staff and customers that I no longer go here. He will belittle his staff right in front of customers and I genuinely feel bad for anyone who works here. He also has them weigh out the ice cream before giving it to the customer which results in getting a cup that his only half full. It's trashy and poor business. read more

This place has the best cake batter ice cream. The woman who works there is always incredibly kind and helpful, they have a great selection of flavors and good sized portions. This place gets PACKED in the summer, lines out the door! Well worth checking out! read more

I go there 2 times a week and the owners are more and more horrible. They doesn't said hello or thank you. Going in the employee is cleaning and don't even look at at you. Before paying the woman (owner)at the counter ask me "something else" i answered "a smile maybe" she told me than she is paid for smiling! Happy Ice cream place!! read more

Got a 7" birthday cake with oreo and choc. mint ice cream that was sooooo good. Will get special cake again. Cake was beautifully decorated!

They have Gifford's hard serve which is very good. The soft serve is to watery and lacks the custardy texture of nearby curleys. The setting is the real issue here as they have a great outside area on the corner, but the inside was really dirty the 2 times I have been inside. Plus, they sell deli stuff in a case right next to where you order ice cream. Kind of gross to look at pasta salad and tuna salad as you are planning to order some great Gifford's PB Chocolate. read more

The owners are so rude to their workers and to the customer. I order vanilla ice cream with m&m and they gave me approximately 7 m&m and when I asked for more they made me pay again. read more

For the most part this is your typical mom and pop ice cream shop though oddly enough it's also a deli. In addition to the soft and hard ice cream (hard ice cream is Gifford's brand) they also have home made ice cream sandwiches, ice cream cakes, and even frozen chocoloate covered bananas and cheesecake. Prices are reasonable and service was friendly. I loved that their large soft serve on a cone was legitimately large. The small building and town really add to the place's charm. Though the hard ice cream was average, the soft servce was very good, definitely the better choice between the two. read more

Went here with besties on a date night. We're frequenters of local ice cream places, and did order seperately. I got a small, and for the price of almost $5 for a cup, I received the smallest scoop of ice cream that I've ever had served to me. Our friend got a cone that was barely even filled beyond the top of the cone itself. Needless to say, we all left wondering why we were skimmed out after spending almost $20! read more

I want to say I love the way this family owns and operates thier business. Dedicated. I watched them eat thier dinner together there tonight. I must say I will continue to come here now I love small businesses like this. Kudos to them. Thank you read more

Great small town ice cream shop! The ice cream is fresh and friendly service. The best is that they close at 10:30 which is rare bc everything is also closed for the night. Purchased an ice cream cake and was delicious and beautifully made- super cheap too! read more

Best Ice Cream cakes around. Only negative is that it is a little small and hard to get parking right by it in the summer. They have great frozen desserts and a good deli too! read more

Great ice cream and great small town ice cream parlor feel. The best time to come is in the summer when you can sit outside.

Mr. Cloud - ice cream in squishy Italian Ice - wonderful combination! The ice cream station has a great selection for everyone - deli, Italian Ice and ice cream. https://colleensicecreamblog.wordpress.com/2017/05/07/the-ice-cream-station/ read more

Good ice cream, but $8.50 for a medium Chocolate Chip mint with M&Ms? It tastes just like Breyer's brand. You might as well go to the grocery store and get a gallon of ice cream and M&Ms for half the price. I asked the girl behind the counter, "why so much?" And she replied, "it's gourmet ice-cream." Seems like they've gotten that question a lot and that's a very trained answer. And the scrapping of the spoon against the side of the styrofoam cup is like fingers down a chalkboard to me. It gives me the chills while I'm trying to enjoy my expensive dessert. Frozen Twist right across the street gives you a way better bang for your buck with unlimited toppings. Don't bother with this place. read more

Mom and Pop type place. Nothing special about the ice cream, but I guess if you're local, the short walk is good. For us, it is not close, and we have better options. read more
