MV Sea Salt Caramel Ice Cream (small)
Jessica O.

A lot of ice cream flavors! The ice cream is great! Prices are high but expected due to the island. Wish the portions were bigger

Sarah B.

Always hunting for the best ice cream in the cape. This definitely is one of the better and more popular spots on Martha's Vineyard, easy to find and access - multiple flavors and samples allowed before you choose which is a plus!

Enjoying Pistachio, Mint Chip and Mud Pie (hidden beneath the wonderful whipped cream)

Absolutely delicious ice cream in an adorable setting. We went midafternoon (2:30 ish) which meant there were no crowds

They have so many different flavors to choose from with cup or cone options. They also sell candy and clothes. Cute shop and we had the small for one scoop for $7 each, maple walnut and caption crunch. Great customer service and very friendly

Maple walnut and butter crunch on a waffle cone
Molly L.

We ordered the waffle cone with maple walnut and butter crunch ice cream. The waffle cone was not super fresh or warm or anything was it was served, but it was good and big. The maple walnut and butter crunch ice cream were also solid. The maple walnut was good and had the right flavors though I think the butter crunch was better than the maple walnut, which was a little plain in comparison. Overall, the ice cream here is pretty good.

Affogato with vanilla ice cream
Maggie J.

In a town positively stacked with ice cream shops, this one was our favorite. Good flavor selection, good service and great ice cream. Bonus points for offering affogato on the menu!

Great ice cream shop. Definitely an iconic place on the island. Great flavors as well. Was pretty crowded with a long line on a week night but the service was quick. I go here every time I visit the island.

Cookie Dough ice cream in a cup

Went here on Monday July 15th 2024, as part of our visit to Martha's Vineyard to walk the streets that chief brody walked on. This was a pit stop because it was hot, and we wanted ice cream. They have plenty of flavors, and can make shakes, and smoothies too. They also had seating where we sat and enjoyed our ice cream. Service was very good as they scooped our ice creams. I got the cookie dough small in a cup, my dad got chocolate in a cup, and my mom got mint chocolate chip in a cone. Paid via credit card. We all enjoyed our refreshing ice cream.

It was fine. Exactly what you would expect. If you want one scoop, no you cannot get a half scoop of two flavors. One note - if you have a food allergy, I would highly suggest asking the ingredients. I got the pistachio and it very much had almond extract in it, so be mindful if you have an allergy.

Pigs Delight

not to be dramatic or anything but this ice cream was totally life changing. the vibes r off the mfing charts, the workers r all young n peppy and super happy to answer any questions u have. But if u have a question of "hmm what flavor should I order?" I can get that one for u: the BLUEBERRY is hands down the BEST blueberry ice cream I've ever had, taken from someone who religiously orders that flavor. I swear on everything that I've had multiple dreams about their blueberry ice cream and all of its deliciousness. Just waiting for the day they offer shipping bc I would stockpile this stuff in an instant

The hotel guy recommended this ice cream place to us. There's 3 ice cream places all close by but the place right by the water gets more customers. They do a good job at keeping a certain amount of customers inside. You can pay with Apple Pay so that was easy. The ice cream was good. The Oreo one was good. My son loved the Mint Oreo one. Chocolate was good but my daughter said it was a bit nutty. This is the better ice cream place in the area. We prefer this one over the others.

Mad Martha's is very good icecream don't get me wrong. It is extremely overpriced though, a small being 7 dollars. They have a good variety of flavors. Sometimes there is a long line but moves pretty quickly. Good for when your craving something sweet. Cant go wrong. Not a cheap spot though.

I genuinely cannot emphasize enough how insanely good this ice cream is. I'm not kidding when I say…read morethis is one of the best ice creams I've ever had in my entire life. The ice cream itself is unbelievably creamy, and the toppings are just as good. They don't skimp on the mix-ins either--the way they load the ice cream with toppings is honestly insane. Every bite is packed with something delicious. My two favorite flavors were Shark's Tooth, which is a blackberry-based ice cream with white chocolate chips, and Sweet Cream & Nuts, which is a sweet cream-based ice cream with walnuts. Both were AMAZING. I would genuinely do anything to go back and have those two again. We also tried a couple of the cookie dough and Oreo-based flavors, and those were incredible too. I especially don't know what they do with their cookie dough, but it is so decadent, soft, and delicious. It almost melts into the ice cream. I seriously don't know how they make their ice cream, but whatever they're doing needs to be studied lol. This place is SO good, and if you're in the area, you absolutely have to try it. They also have two locations, which makes it even better!

It seems like this is THE spot for ice cream in the area because we showed up 15 minutes before…read moreclosing, and there was a line of cars waiting to go in and 30 or so people waiting in a line outside. The line inside goes by so much faster, so I definitely recommend going there instead of waiting outside. I was pleased to see many nondairy flavors and not just fruit sorbets. I got the chocolate pudding which was quite creamy and satisfying. About $7 for a scoop. Plenty of seating inside and outside. The staff here work hard--there were still people in line even 45 minutes after closing when we left. I'll definitely be back if I'm in the area again!

The best creamery in the area, no competition! Our entire family has been going to Somerset…read moreCreamery for years, and it has always remained our favorite. Their quality is consistent and unmatched, from their diverse flavors to their homemade waffle cones. There are no bad flavors - it all depends what you're in the mood for! Our favorites are their Kahlua Chip, Carrot Cake, Cookie Dough, Red Velvet Cake, Peanut Butter Oreo and Banana. Be sure to check out their speciality flavors that rotate throughout the season!

This is my all-time favorite ice cream place. I do not even live super close to here, but when I…read morewant a good ice cream, I will make the drive over. I now live on an island - and you bet that when I went off-island last week I requested that my dad stop here on the way home from Hyannis. My dad had to say yes; having worked in the ice cream industry in his youth, he knows a good cone when he sees one and Somerset Creamery tops his list as well. Embarrassingly, we got there 10 minutes before they opened. We camped in the parking lot. When it was time to go in, I already knew what I was getting. Chocolate mint ice cream in a waffle cone. First of all, it is the best ice cream flavor ever created. Chocolate and mint ice cream with Oreo cookie pieces. What else could you ask for?? And then their waffle cones and made fresh and they are oh so good. The service is always great, and they now take credit cards!! I cannot recommend this place enough. The only downside is that they do not have any dedicated seating, inside or outside. There are some planters of sorts that you can sit down on. Once I sat on one for three hours for a first date - can't say I recommend that. But if you want good ice cream, come here! (Yes, it is better than the Barn in my opinion).

The bang for your buck! This is some of the most price favorable and high quality ice cream I've ever tried. Their XXL, which is 6 scoops and huge, is $8.90. I am shocked! Staff is also super nice and explained all of the flavors we had questions about to us. I tried their chocolate, strawberry, raspberry chocolate chip, s'mores, and phantom berry ice cream. All were amazing. My favorites were definitely the chocolate, s'mores, and phantom berry ice creams. All amazing options, I would seriously recommend this place!
