Madulka's Ice Cream - Best Ice cream shop in Worcester! Madulkas Ice cream has the nicest staff and a beautiful lake view - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

We tried out Madulkas ice cream recently. The actual stand is around back facing Lake Quinsigamond. They serve the regular flavors of ice cream you can find at most stands around here. It was good, but nothing about the flavors or size was out of the ordinary. They're greatest advantage is they have a nice view while you enjoy your ice cream. read more

They have really good ice cream here! It's dog friendly, and they have a dog dish, which is whipped cream with treats! You can place your order from either side of the building. There are plenty of seats and tables on the dock and ground! read more

We love going here by boat, it's so easy unless the owner parks his giant deck boat on the end dock taking up two spots. I mean I'm sure he wants his boat accessible, but at the customers' expense read more

Jordyn was awesome sauce and she had great service. My cream was delectable and the view is beautiful read more

Madulka's Ice Cream - Jordyn - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

The ice cream is amazing! have been going there for years and it never disappoints. everyone is always so nice and the view is great

We have been to Madulka's many times and it never disappoints!!! I contacted the owner to purchase gift "coins" as Easter gifts and she delivered them so quickly and included Easter cards to use!!! Madulka's is a great local business!!! read more

They have a typical selection. I had a raspberry/lemon sorbet slushie. It was really good. The small soft serve is actually big so choose size wisely. It's by a river and has seating by the docks. The employee in there was doing a tremendous job considering she was the only person there. read more

My family and I decided to take a trip to Madulka's because all we've heard are good things! We typically would go to Uhlman's or Gibby's but we wanted to change things up. We went on a Saturday night and it was very busy so the line was very long which was fine because of the lively environment between the view of the lake and the music playing next door. The service was excellent! We told the polite young man that we had never been here before so he gave us some recommendations and let us sample a few things. I got the chocolate peanut butter on one of their homemade waffle cones and it was soooo good! A lot of places around don't have homemade waffle cones so this is definitely an added bonus even if they're a little extra. The prices were pretty comparable with the other local places, maybe a little bit more pricey but you're paying for quality. Overall, everyone was pleased (even my picky 8 year old) and I think we found our new saturday night spot for the summer read more

Great ice cream! Seasonal, open spring/summer; check their social media for open/close dates and hours. Cash only! Really nice outdoor seating area; you can walk down and sit at the edge of the lake (beware of the somewhat aggressive ducks :D ) read more

Large selection of flavors and nice location on Lake Ave. There is a beautiful seating area in the back downstairs with picnic tables and chairs. Its nice to watch the boats go by while you eat your ice cream. Ice cream is good quality, better than your standard Friendly's, but not as good as Gibby's. The only negative is it is right next to the Marine Core League (bar/event hall) which is really loud and sometimes rowdy. read more

Delicious ice cream. Beautiful view. Only downside is it's cash only and street parking, but parking is easy enough and there's an ATM onsite. The sundaes taste like Friendly's to me, which is a compliment in my mind :) read more

This place certainly does not disappoint. My friends took me here on my birthday and I ordered the coffee w/ oreos combo (don't know what it's called off the top of my head) and it was such a generous amount of ice cream. I got the small but I could barely finish it. It was a little too sweet but still delicious. So when I went again with my friend, I got the coffee ice cream on a waffle cone. It was amazing! I love coffee ice cream and they of course gave me a huge serving size again. Also, pumpkin flavor is so good too. Tastes just like pumpkin pie! Not to mention the beautiful view of harbor with people on their boats and ducks waddling around. I highly recommend coming here if you just need to relax after a long day. read more

The atmosphere is super refreshing, right by the water with cute outdoor seating. It literally feels like you're at the beach. This place is unfortunately cash only but has an atm at the backside where you can withdrawal money. They offer a variety of fresh churned ice cream and offer doggy friendly ice cream as well. I ended going for the cake batter, It was super creamy and thick, it was essentially vanilla I cream with with mix of chocolate drizzle in it. The prices are a bit pricey but I guess most home made ice cream places are, about 4-5 dollars a scoop. They also didn't have all of the items noted on the menu at the time, we originally went for root beer floats but none were available at the time. read more

Madulka's Ice Cream - A purple cow by the water - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

we went there today and purchased a large sundae with three scoops: chocolate, coffee Oreo and coconut, but we only got coffee Oreo and coconut the two scoops. The thing is, we won't be able to know it's two scoops until we already start eating it( we have whip cream as a topping) . The girl served us double checked with us about the flavor, but still she didn't give us what we paid for read more

Waited in line for 45 mins and service was non-existent. Took all that time to serve 4 people n front of us. Then when it was out turn, server closed the window and said she would be back later.... Totally not worth the effort with all the other great ice cream places around. read more

Flavors were great. The location is on a busy road and the restriction on seating made the experience a little stressful, but that is not enough to keep us away in the future. read more

The staff were friendly. The ordering line was easy one way in and out with signs to social distance. I wish sanitizer was provided. I took off one star because They only had one dairy free Flavor, raspberry sorbet. It was delicious just wish I had more options. read more

Went on a busy Monday night. The line moved pretty quickly and for the most part people wore masks and kept social distance. We ordered 3 ice creams and they were pretty quick about making the orders. The girls weren't rude at all but weren't as friendly as some of the smaller local shops can be. When we got our order they had forgotten a few of the toppings but like I said, they were busy, so it wasn't worth going back. All of us enjoyed our ice cream although I had ordered cake batter and received cookie dough ‍ Overall, not a terrible experience but not a memorable one and I would move on and try another place next time. read more

It's ice cream, the scoops are big, and its on a lake. The ice cream isn't homemade, but it's not bad. I would prefer a creamier texture, but Madulka's is the only place where you can get ice cream and look at a body of water in Worcester, so it fills a need. read more

Wow.... this place is truly the worst. Employees are rude and homophobic and the establishment is absolutely disgusting.... so dirty and they need more trash cans! And no disinfectant anywhere-- in a pandemic no less! I will never return. read more

Near my place so I walked over to grab some. Service can get a little back logged, but solid ice cream. Not sure what else people expect from here. Good selection of flavors and well made overall. Is it significantly better than say a store-bought carton? Maybe not. But being able to grab ice cream and sit on the pier and watch the lake makes it a pretty nice ambiance. read more

Decent ice cream selection, nice location, reasonably priced. Easily accessible with a large parking lot across the street and it's nice that there are two seating areas - down by the water or up on the deck! The flurries take a little while to make but our ice creams came out fast and the waffles cones didn't taste old of stale. Overall s family friendly and affordable establishment. read more

I'm leaving Worcester and this is one place I will for surely miss! Great location overlooking the lake. Nearby bar with live music. The assortment of ice cream is amazing and the vanilla soft serve is on point! Highly recommend checking them out read more

Decent ice cream and super close. Location being so close is the most prominent draw of this place, except there isn't much for space to sit when it's busy and it's on a rather busy road. They did have grape nut ice cream which bumps it up a star because most places around us don't. I feel sometimes the service is a little off though and for a little further drive, you could get some absolutely divine ice cream. read more

Last year, I was raving to other parents about Madulka's because they were the one local spot that offered a kid size ice cream that was a great price and size. This season, the owner got greedy and stopped selling kid size. I don't mind the price of the small (it is average priced) but forcing 3 year old kids to purchase an ice cream that would satisfy the obese crowd pictured in these yelp reviews is over the top. I don't like wasting food and throwing away 2/3 of an ice cream just because the owner wants to squeeze an extra dollar from his customers. The kid size was the only advantage to this place. Other than that, you have an average ice cream stand where the only thing that stands out is the 40mph traffic whizzing by two feet from the order window. Between the traffic, the balcony, stairs, polluted lake and mosquitoes, Madulka's is not a great place to take young kids. Gibby's on Sunderland Rd has better quality ice cream for the money. read more

This ice cream is the size of my face and I love it! If your interested for an affordable, and well portioned delicious ice cream then this is the place! Madulka's Ice cream shop also gets brownie points with its beautiful location near the lake. You can enjoy your ice cream overlooking a pleasant view of the lake on comfy colorful beach chairs! read more

Amazing variety of both hard and soft ice cream next to the lake, what more could you want?

I WAS OVERCHARGED FOR NUTSSSS I was seduced into purchasing nuts on my sundae and I was shocked to discover they were very expensive. I'm disappointed and disgruntled. Not coming back. The sundae was excellent though, I was very satisfied but still, the nuts are a deal breaker. read more

Madulka's Ice Cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

Madulka's is usually my go-to during the summer because its closest to my house. The ice cream flavors are kind of limited and a little too pricey... But the view is beautiful! On some days, the workers are really friendly and welcoming and other days, they're very rude and blah. I have mix feelings about this place but overall, the ice cream here is great. read more

It's possible they've changed the soft serve because its straight flavorless ice milk. It's not the same smooth creamy vanilla it was last year. And since when did we get so skimpy with the hot fudge? Guess it's off to Grafton. read more

Excellent place to stop and get shake, cone or sunday. There is a window in back with a deck that overlooks the lake. They also sell hot dogs and a doggie dish if you have your 4 legged friend with you. read more

Madulka's Ice Cream - The back deck at Madulka's. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

Pretty good, overall. They have an excellent selection of flavors and their soft serve is very good. The "large" cone is very large, I'd recommend getting a cup to hold it in. The prices are pretty reasonable too, although bottled water was a little expensive. The menu is really overwhelming, there is so much to choose from. The portions are big so ordering a large is really like a massive amount of ice cream a human can't consume in one sitting. My small sundae was refrozen in my freezer until the next couple of days, and it was still pretty good. The staff is about average. They aren't friendly, but aren't rude, and they do their job so I can't complain. Parking is kind of scarce and the parking lot across the street is usually open but it's downright dangerous crossing Lake Ave at certain times. We walked, and if you are at Lake Park it isn't a long walk from there. At the rear of the building their is a nice deck with some seating available that looks over the lake. There is also access to some seating down by the docks. It's really nice and peaceful if you go during the week afternoons. We went around 4 on Friday and it was pretty quiet. I can imagine this place gets busy on the weekends. Also, last year, the week before closing they were selling their ice cream for $1 a scoop. Something to keep in mind for you bargain hunters. read more

The ice cream place is beautiful and delicious. This is the perfect spot for spending a lovely summer night just relaxing w friends or to stop at while kayaking on the lake . The ice cream is so gooood, there are amazing flavors and toppings and the atmosphere is colorful summery and really pleasurable . I will always come to Madulkas. read more

Ice cream is gritty, not made on prem (not sure whose ice cream it is yet) and the price is high. I was charged $11 for a small and a large hard ice cream in a cup. Online menu says Small $3.25 1 Scoop / Large $5.25 3 Scoops = $8.50. Not sure what the $2.50 extra was for. read more

I can't believe this place doesn't have better reviews. Until this past summer I've visited other ice cream parlors in the area more often but Madulka's has become my new favorite. I visit Madulka's at least once a week. The portions are big and the prices are low. Cake Batter is my favorite flavor. read more

If you are moderate ice cream consumer, kiddie size will be enough for refreshment while looking at the lake. sunsets are nice with opposite side of the lake washed in sunlight. There are a lot of varieties, they don't have all of the all the time, but I'm sure you will find what you are looking for. There are Dairy-free ice creams, which is great. You can also dock your boat and grab ice cream, which is cool. I am coming back to this place! read more

Horrible experience with broken ATM (cash only business) that ate my card. Actual children working there who had no idea how to handle it. I even offered to give my information and to call me when someone was able to give me back my card to which they replied they don't think they can, that I should just report it missing. After ten minutes of standing in 90 degree heat with a two year old who just wanted ice cream, I asked if we could just get the ice cream we came for that I would be happy to pay for when I get my debit card back to which they replied no. Any other business would have offered me (also pregnant) and my son a seat and some ice cream on the house while they figured it out. The manager was nasty and accused me of just wanting free ice cream. When my husband later called on my behalf, after they watched me take my crying son away who just wanted ice cream, she was just as crude and miserable with him, saying customers like us just want free stuff and that she knows we will go on Yelp and leave a bad review and that she doesn't care. So, here it is. The bad Yelp review. Ever hear of a family business that lets a two year old walk away crying when it would cost practically nothing to make it right? Don't waste your money here. Plenty of other ice cream places in the area that will appreciate your business. read more
