LOVE, LOVE, LOVE coming to this local ice cream shop. My family faves are the mix-in frozen yogurt, ice slush, & Ice cream. Lots of flavors & options. The owner is really nice and supports the local community. There's some seating indoors and out. Great place to stop after school, after dinner, and just when ever! It's just over the footbridge at Framingham State University and a couple minutes walk from Framingham Centre Common. If you're an ice cream lover, make sure you get the card you can stamp for each purchase towards getting a free ice cream. read more

Mad Willie's is a summer staple! I've been coming to this small mom-and-pop ice cream shop since I was a kid and it has the same charm and tasty ice cream now as it did back then. They have many fun ice cream flavors and the serving sizes are generous (a kids size is 1 scoop of ice cream). My husband often asks to make an ice cream stop as he loves the waffle cones here. The shop is quite small and the lines can get long, especially at night so keep that in mind if you're in a time crunch. read more

Our favorite ice cream stop in Town. Quick service and just the right toppings satisfy all the kids. No soft serve here, only scoops of premium ice cream treats and shakes or fresh shaved ice. read more

Mad Willie's is my go-to ice cream parlor. I didn't consider myself a huge ice cream fan before but after stopping by at Mad Willie's I've been finding myself craving ice cream for dessert. It's a little dangerous because it's a close drive from my house and the service is always efficient. The workers are always friendly and helpful. You can tell it's a local favorite because there are always people eating ice cream outside no matter what time of day you stop by. The shop has been clean every time I've stopped in. My order here is always one scoop of vanilla on a waffle cone and it always hits the spot. Since I only get one scoop, the staff only charges me for the kiddie size. FOOD: 9/10 SERVICE: 8/10 RECOMMENDATION: Get the waffle cone. It will change your life. read more

The other day, we were in the area and decided to swing by as a treat on the way home. The shop is cute but doesn't have a lot of seating; it's a small location. There's a lot of variety between the flavors and different offerings like hard scooped ice cream, milkshakes, toppings, sundaes, ice cream floats, & Italian ice. The portions are generous, too. I had the peanut butter Oreo and I thought it was creamy with the right amount of Oreo but a little light on the peanut butter flavor. My husband got the butter pecan and while it's his favorite flavor, said this particular one was one of the worst he's had. My toddler was sad there were little balls in her cotton candy (I didn't taste it so I'm not sure what it was). So overall, the trip here wasn't worth it for us. Maybe we would have liked it if we got different flavors but it's not worth the drive to find out. read more

They serve Richardson's ice cream which is always good! Prices are a bit higher than we're used to but the servings were fairly generous.

Always fantastic service and great ice cream. Can't go wrong with cute store front. Walking distance from the green and plenty of parking. You get amazing ice cream, quality sizes and great prices. A Framingham staple! read more

Always great ice cream and yogurt with many flavors. Great owner who is always pleasant and eager to accommodate any requests. Even staying open late if there is a local kids event. read more

Cute little frozen yogurt shop with lots of options and sometimes seasonal ones too. Definitely enjoy the ability to drop in and grab something easily and while a little crammed there's plenty of room outside. The staff move fast though, and are good at recommending something if you're overwhelmed. read more

This is the best Ice Cream i've ever had in my entire life. The owner and employees are always very nice and make a good conversation every time. It feels very homey inside the store, and is a great place to sit down and have ice cream with friends. This is a hidden gem, everyone needs to come here! read more

Love the ice cream and froyo! Friendly staff. Both indoor and outdoor seating. It's our go-to ice cream shop!

Amazing ice cream and interaction with the owner. Will go there again in the summer time!! Highly recommend going there for quality ice cream. read more

Great ice cream and friendly service. Freshly made frozen yogurt with real fruit. Generous sized portions and cute little neighborhood shop. We've been coming here for years. it's only a few minute ride from our house but it's well worth the trip if you live in the surrounding towns. read more

Took our 3 1/2 year granddaughter yesterday in the early afternoon for a treat. There were so many delicious flavors to choose from! We sat on the stools facing the large window looking out at the front porch area and chatted while enjoying our ice cream cups. The gentleman at the counter who served us was quite pleasant and kind. He was so patient with us as my granddaughter decided on a flavor and even offered us a plastic cover for her cup of ice cream so we could bring home what she couldn't finish. Mad Willie's is a wonderful place to take a break and treat a child (and yourself) to some tasty ice cream. read more

ALL I ASK... keep the ice cream comin, keep the sugar free and other better for you options rollin, and maybe just put a little love into your front porch! And if you get a Best Buddies Buddy Bench to replace that old heap that's falling apart, you'll be promoting a great cause while you give your guests a comfortable place to sit and eat! https://www.miracle-recreation.com/best-buddies/ read more

What a hidden gem in Framingham. I wish that I had tried it pre-COVID to get the full experience and spend more time scouting their menu. It appears that their frozen yogurt is out of a soft serve machine of some sort. It was extremely creamy, and soft, while being light in the stomach. I got a small for around $4 and it was a very reasonable size for the price (includes sprinkles added). I ordered their Coffee Heath froyo, and while not a ton of heath, there was a good amount where you weren't wondering where the rest was. Would certainly come back to try one of their (what seemed like) 40 froyo flavors, or their slush (tough to find slush spots these days). read more

The ice cream is good-it's Richardson's. I think I got some coffee chocolate ice cream mixed in with my health bar crunch. I couldn't figure out why it was off until I saw the tan color. Like the scoops weren't washed/rinsed between scoops. The place is small inside. The set up of the counter is weird. The kids were nice working there but of course on their phones constantly-I know it happens all the time now but it looks poor. The tables/chairs and floor were filthy with ice cream/mix ins and crumbs everywhere. Maybe a periodic while down would be good? read more

I just got off a 5 hour shift and went to get ice cream. Went in they were nice asked me what I wanted then, I asked for the cake batter and orange cream soft serve. He asked me if I wanted them in separate cups or mixed together, I didn't think he actually meant mixed together so I got that. When I got it I was surprised and tasted it , it was not good . So I went back and asked him why couldn't they just make it side by side in one cup and he said we don't do that. No signs at alll. So I got a small just with cake batter and I said let me just pay for another one and they actually took my money again. Anyways it's not even that good read more

A great selection of Richardson's ice cream. Good portion size for the money. Friendly service. A nice place for an ice cream treat.

So many great choices! Service is always super quick, staff is friendly. Favorite ice cream place in Framingham. However, store is quite small, but clean. read more

Would absolutely recommend this ice cream spot! Tons of flavors, very creamy ice cream, and friendly staff- the owner even stayed open late for us coming right at closing time (we didn't know their hours when we got there, but they stayed open late to serve us and didn't even mention that they were technically closed). We appreciate their customer centered service and their delicious ice cream. If you're thinking about stopping by, do it! read more

Maine black bear with turtle mix is by far the best ice cream made here. Service was quick staff is friendly

Mad Willies is SOOO GOOD! I found out about Mad Willies when I was looking for the best ice cream in Framingham and they sure did not disappoint! They have a wide selection of flavors. They have soft serve, hard ice cream, frozen yoghurt, slushees, smoothies and milkshakes! The prices are reasonable considering they are a mom and pop shot. Also the servings are generous so a small is like a medium and so forth. Make sure you order wisely! Enjoy this great place for a nice cool summer treat! read more

This is my 2nd time at Mad Willie's and it is only April! I love ice cream and love to have a treat 3 times a day with each meal if I could get away with it! This place is small and gets crowded fast but the line seems to move fairly quickly. Our first visit was on an unusually hot day in March...mid 70's calls for ice cream and today was beautiful after all the rain. I've had the Rum Raisin ice cream which was excellent. Lots of good flavor. I've had others that haven't had good flavor and not enough raisins. I would get this again. For portion control only I got the kiddie cup which was plenty. My girls also got kiddie cups and it was just the right size for them. Depending on the time you go I'd waiver between kiddie and small. There are many different flavors for ice cream, yogurt, frappes, Italian ice, and much more...see the pic of the menu board. It can be overwhelming. The coconut ice cream actually has coconut in it and my daughter loves it. There are only 3 small tables inside and a few seats at the window bench but there is additional seating outside at the picnic tables. Again not a lot of space but it works. I'll be slowly going through the menu to try everything out. I had the fat free sugar free peanut butter cup today. No this is not what I wanted but hey...July will be here soon and I want to be at the beach! Overall this satisfied my craving. It was sweet, had good flavor, small pieces of pb candies (also sugar free) mixed in but more on the icy side rather than on the creamy side but overall...not bad. I'd order it again or at least while I am trying to get ready for the beach. read more

Mad Willie's is like a local version of DQ where you get your soft serve fro yo with just about anything mixed in (a la Blizzard). What I like is that they offer a kiddie size which is just enough with the perfectly tart froyo base that they use. The hard ice cream is also good, but I feel like that's easier to find around town. read more

I want to give a big THANK YOU to the guys who were working at Mad Willie's yesterday. I wanted to buy two pints of ice cream but my car A/C wasn't working and I was concerned the ice cream would melt on my way home. They didn't have ice but they did give me an insulated bag that kept the ice cream from melting. The deliciousness of the ice cream and the exceptional customer service is why I keep coming back! read more

Absolutely delicious! Try out Raspberry is my fav. My kids like cotton candy and maple ! The place is small but we like their ice cream and welcoming atmosphere! read more

The best ice cream spot in Framingham! -mad Willis staff are nice. -their ice cream is delicious I always get the Oreo cookie ice cream. They make some of the best Oreo ice cream I've had. i'm sure they make it themselves because it always tastes fresh and you can actually taste the Oreo cookie unlike some ice creams. -The atmosphere inside is small but there is an outdoor area with picnic tables. There isn't much of a view considering all you can really see is Route nine and Framingham State University. But still pleasant. -me and my friends are reoccurring customers and have been for the past three years. If Looking for a good sweet treat and in the Framingham area they are the place to go! read more

Pricey for the size of the serving, good quality ice cream. You cannot screw up a can of Barq's root beer as the prime ingredient of a root beer float. read more

Very disappointed. It's 94 degrees, hot and humid, some thing cold was definitely a good idea. I asked the server if their yogurt mixed with cookie would be too soft? He assured me that it wouldn't be. I ordered frozen yogurt with nutter butter mixed in. They have a good idea with yogurt and mix ins. Unfortunately not the knowledge of making it right. It was like drinking soup! $6.41 thrown away. I even took it back to the young man complaining that this was just what I did not want, and that it's like a soup. He said sorry nothing he can do about it. My advise to the owner of this ice cream shop is to make sure your employees know how to do these mixes and have a better manner to deal with customers. It's really too bad, the place is cute and close by. I guess this is why they had no customers in such a hot day. read more

Whenever I feel like something sweet or want some fun family time, I go to Mad Willie's! Everything on the menu is amazing and the staff always has a smile on their faces which makes our visits better. Lately I've been getting the chocolate oreo frozen yogurt which is delicious (highly recommend trying)! Thank you Mad Willie's for having the best ice cream! read more

A little short on time, and seeking to keep things fairly simple, I stopped in here to grab a few hot dogs. And mighty fine dogs they turned out to be. The five minute wait was well worth it. The first bite, the snap of the dog, the toasted buttered roll. OMG, it was was oh so good. Plenty of ice cream choices including about a dozen sugar free soft serve flavors. I will definitely need to stop in again with my daughter for some frozen refreshments. There's a couple of picnic benches out front and about a half dozen inside. Staff wasn't exactly smiling, but was pleasant enough. I would have gone with four stars but the fact that on a lazy Tuesday afternoon, they had no onions for my dogs which is a big, big negative. read more

I use to love this place... they have seemed to go downhill really quickly. The kids working the counter were not attentive at all and not really polite either. Probably just a part time college gig for them but still to get and keep customers you have to put in at least a teeny tiny bit of effort. I am really big on cleanliness.. everything in the front of the place seems clean but as I was looking behind the counter it was disgusting... machines were dirty and seriously gross looking. If I had noticed this before ordering I would've walked out. I hope this place improves again because it use to be such a great place to go! read more

Excellent ice cream. Didn't have all the flavors posted on the menu. Great service with friendly employees.

Great ice cream from an outstanding, long-established creamery, Richardson's in Middleton, MA. They respect social distancing - two in the store at a time, but it's worth the wait! read more

The owner is very nice, and always has a welcoming smile. Great ice cream/ frozen yogurt.

Big selection of flavors and good scoop size. The shop is a little small but just fine plus there are seats and picnic tables out front. We tried pistachio ice cream in a waffle cone. Standard flavor and quality wise. Good for families and nice to get dessert after pizza or Thai food next door. read more

Just drove half an hour after calling to see if they had any sugar free ice cream flavors for my 4yr old diabetic niece-the guy(owner) said they did have some. I drove, get there, surprise it's that fake yogurt twist-not actual ice cream. He even said he did answer the call but clearly didn't give a shit to tell me flavors or that it's yogurt, and that it's my fault for the miscommunication. Ok. read more

Mad Willie is a small place. It has a few tables. It's a bit pricy for ice cream with topping on it. The ice was good. Just feel like I can get this type of ice cream anywhere read more
