The best ice cream anywhere in our area ! Great quality, great service . Prices are very reasonable,

I always pass by this place but never actually entered until today. It was super cute inside. A lot of different varieties and even had pup cups. Pretty small inside no seating area inside only outside benches. The lady was lovely and love the story behind the shop. It was so wholesome to read their story outside the shop. I got the medium waffle cone with cookie dough and cookies n cream. Love the decors. Not busy when we went it was just us. read more

Rich's Ice Cream - Cannoli pie - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

We were going to get ice cream on the boardwalk, but decided to try this place and so glad we did! So many options, reasonable prices, friendly staff, definitely worth the short trip! read more

OMG WOW. I came up from Florida because I have heard of this world famous Ice Cream Sundae and its name is Cannoli Speciality Sundae. Let me tell you folks the Sundae has enter the ring and it took the title. The Cannoli Speciality Sundae is now the World Famous Cannoli Speciality Sundae. It whoops the butts of any other sundae hands down. Don't get me wrong Rich's has so many great choices to pick from and the surveys have stated they are contenders for the world famous. You must try them all. The ice cream was creamy, the cannoli cream had my eyes roll to the back of my head to such a delight, the cannoli shell, chocolate syrup and chocolate chips put together makes this the Sundae to get. The cozy atmosphere of this ice cream shop is adorable. The staff was grand and glorious with their huge smiles, respectful service and the grandeur politeness. They were on point and get that pat on the back they deserve. Look at that smile with the great service (see picture attached). Two things they need to do. Get rid of that 3.99% charge on credit cards and most importantly open up more ice cream shops specially in the Orlando area. The word will spread far and wide and the masses will definitely come to this most spectacular Ice Cream Shop with the world famous sundaes. Guys good job and keep on scooping. read more

Rich's Ice Cream - Won't be patronizing this establishment ever again ! Highest fees I've ever seen ... - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

The fact that it's really close to where I live makes it convenient if I want ice cream

The ice cream was delicious. Creamy, flavorful, cold, and great toppings. Good topping selection. Although these are the descriptions from my husband and friends. I was unable to try anything because they had no sugar free options. It was unfortunate for me because everyone told me it was delicious. Oh well onto someplace that respects diabetics! read more

LOVE their ice cream, especially cookies and cream and peanut butter. During covid, you order from walk-up window and they call you when ready. The line wasn't bad when we went after dinner on Sunday. Rich's II is temporarily closed. We tried to go there first but there was sign. I think it's exactly same ice cream (owned by same family). I would visit daily if it wasn't so bad for my waistline! read more

Rich's Ice Cream - Cookies n Cream with hot fudge and whip cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

Came here on a cold night, but it didn't stop me from trying Rich's for the first time. I've lived in the area all my life and I never had the chance to try Rich's until this year...sad. I've been missing out on some decent homemade ice cream all these years! I really loved their mint cookies and cream hard ice cream, but the Cookie Monster fell a tad bit short on my expectations. For some reason, there wasn't enough flavor for me. Other than that, great homemade ice cream, spacey interior with seating and awesome proximity to the beach for the summer time! read more

The flurry was completely melted with huge chunks of fruit. Didn't believe this was my order and they said "the fruit makes it like that" read more

Rich's Ice Cream - Pineapple Upside Down Cake Flurry - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Toms River, New Jersey

I drive here from Howell just for the Ice's and the strawberry ice creme. That's it, every thing else my family buys or I see other customer order looks fantastic, but I am a purist here, the watermelon is the best. read more

Best ice cream shop ever!! They have a huge selection of hard ice cream, including Cookie Monster, my favorite, which I can never find anywhere. They're super efficient and quick, make sure to bring cash! The outdoor picnic tables are nice to sit at too read more

I used to go to the old location by the 7 eleven quite often, back in high school and summer breaks in college. It was probably my favorite ice cream shop in Toms River. I was sad to see the old place close down a few years ago. Rich's 2 (next to Burger 25) is ok, but I feel like their ice cream just isn't quite as good. In fact, I was just there the other day and tried a key lime gelati (with key lime water ice and vanilla soft serve). It wasn't great. I thought that a chain place like Rita's made a much better tasting gelati- not a good sign. Imagine my excitement when I drove by and saw signs that they were having a grand opening today at this new location! I even arrived in time to see the mayor show up for the ribbon cutting ceremony. Well, the good news is that the ice cream is as delicious as I remember, and the even better news is that they're open for business, 7 days a week from noon until 10pm. It's a perfect stop after a day at the beach! I'll definitely be a regular here to try the different flavors. Soft serve, hard ice cream, sundaes, flurries... You can't go wrong! Glad to have you back, Rich's ice cream! You've been missed. read more

What a delightful surprise to stumble upon this wonderful ice cream shop!! We had an unremarkable dinner next door at Theresa's Osaka and decided to stop at Rich's afterwards for dessert. Let me tell you, this was some of the BEST ice cream either of us has ever had, not counting the best Italian gelato or our favorite, Ben & Jerry's. It is very dense and super creamy and loaded with flavor. The sign said it is homemade and we believed it. I had the hard ice cream - coconut and cookies and cream - heavenly! Hubby had a milkshake made with the cherry hard ice cream and it too was amazing. Others have said this is cash only, but I think that has changed because I used a credit card. We will definitely return! read more

Great ice cream I love banana splits and the soft serve Oreo when it was their. The best ice cream is the im not hungry with cookies and cookie dough mixed inside :). read more

I am new to the area and fell in love with Rich's ice cream. My favorite flavor is the chocolate chocolate chip and I also enjoy buying the pack of ice cream cannolis. What I love most about Rich's is that they have affordable prices and they give a large quantity of ice cream! They are also clean and the staff is friendly. Definitely my favorite ice cream place in the area. Highly recommend ALL of Rich's ice cream locations. read more

We usually go here all summer long. We went this year day after opening day and I think this might have been the problem. A simple order of medium hard vanilla but maybe the freezers weren't cold enough but the ice-cream was not hard at all it was almost as soft as the soft that comes from the machine. I even put it in my home freezer for about half-hour. It was still soft when it came out and tasted bland. Maybe they should lower the temperatures before opening day - I don't now what the problem was but the only reason Im posting this is because it's not cheap - $5.95 for a medium hard ice-cream ! ! ! I'm placing them on probation until 4th of July weekend and Ill be going to Mrs. Walkers til that time. My wife's ice cream which was a different flavor was also very soft so I guess the freezer was the problem. Sad really charging premium money for an inferior product. read more

I think Rich's is pretty good ice cream. I have better and I've had worse. This is a great stop on the way down the shore. I have a this ice cream, ususally vanilla and choc. swirl, many times over the years, always tasted fresh and creamy. read more

So happy!!!!!! The customer service was great!! We had Ryan helping us and he convinced us to try some ice cream even though we were about to leave looking for frozen custard. Tried it, and it was amazing!!! He let us try all the flavors we asked, and told me which were gluten free because of my allergy. The ice cream was amazing and so was the customer service. This place should definitely have 5 stars! Will be back if I'm ever in the area again! read more

Very unorganized. Walked in people standing everywhere. No ticket numbers to be taken in the order you came in. Only 2 workers and there were 7 people ahead of me. read more

Best ice cream ever! Rich's and Hoffman's are tied for first place in my book. I'm super picky about ice cream and this place totally nails it. They are very friendly as well. Love this place. read more

Could possibly be the best ice cream on the planet. Recently, Rich's branched out into hard ice cream but they are known for their soft ice cream. They always have 9(?) flavors available including vanilla and chocolate. This has been a family run business since it opened in the 50s and they take a lot of pride in their quality and service. In addition, they have come up with creative ice cream sundaes that are fantastic. For example, the cannoli sundae features your choice of ice cream (pick vanilla, thank me later) surrounded by cannoli cream, cannoli shells,chocolate syrup, chocolate chips, whipped cream and a cherry. Heaven. read more

Noone's reviewed Rich's yet? Really? Really good soft-serve ice cream. You can get a bunch of topics mixed in to make a blizzard-like treat. I usually just get the basic chocolate/vanilla swirled w/ sprinkles, but still delicious none-the-less. If you live in the area definitely hit this place up. read more

The hard ice cream, made in house, was delicious! I got the mint Oreo and strawberry- both tasted homemade, creamy, chucks of strawberries and Oreos. Staff was patient as we had a lot of questions and tastings :) Forewarned- cash only read more

Rich's ice cream is one of the best local places! Their pumpkin ice cream is so good! I love their seasonal flavors, I almost try to get something different and have never been disappointed. They have a nice variety of flavors, and some old fashioned options like an Italian ice cream soda. We love Rich's and are very happy to support them! read more

Went back and there was no line but the woman that helped us was unnecessarily rushing us, completely rude when I ordered, insinuating we didn't know how and so so rude. To top it off, the ice cream was nowhere near as good and we will definitely never return. read more

Really good ice cream. This summer I managed to go twice. I was able to split a German Chocolate sundae and a Chocolate Brownie sundae. Both were very large and really delicious. Great place to go out to in the summer. read more

Rich's has, hands down, the best soft serve ice cream I've ever had. It's as thick as a custard, Rich's I has more flavors of soft serve, but Rich's II (near 37 & Vaughn) has more hard ice creams and you don't have to wait outside. I recommend the soft serve chocolate. read more

Possibly the best soft serve ice cream ever! Everyone I've ever known to have gone there loved it. They have unique treats and flavors.

Hmmm CANNOLi CREAM yummy in my tummy! Uber-Clean & friendly staff make this the best stop 4 ice cream

only the best soft-seve ice cream on the planet. I never venture away from my chocolate ice-cream with chocolate sprinkles. Mom always enjoy's the Rich's bar, but it's always frozen solid and I say I can't wait! I want my ice cream NOW! read more

I grew up on Rich's, it is delicious. The Richie bar is a chocolate dipped masterpiece that is only found at Rich's. Seriously, this and Mrs. Walker's tie for the best ice cream in TR. read more

Pretty good. Lots of flavors and toppings to choose from. Looks like this place is open year round...so ice cream anytime!

Good stuff, although my small cost 3 bucks, still not bad for the delicious ice cream. we got black raspberry and banana and both were great. read more

I grew up going to the original Rich's and was thrilled to see it reopen. Best softserve ice cream anywhere hands down. The Richiebar is unforgettable and there are some great Flurries. Now that they have reopened, it's the only place I will go! read more

Great ice cream, great location with large parking lot and easy access. Only downside is service, which hopefully will improve with experience. Need to be customer focused. Huge difference between staffs of the two Rich's stores. read more

First time trying this place, and I'm glad we did. Super cute and clean building with a nice selection of homemade ice cream. I had "rich wich" and my husband had cookies and cream. Both were really good. Love the fact that it's homemade compared to other local places. read more

Pricey, but worth it. They have truly creative ice cream sundae combinations that are out of this world.

I was very disappointed with the service here. My grandmother came in one day and asked for a medium ice cream, but then decided she wanted a larger size. The woman serving her refused to put the ice cream in a bigger cup and said she had to pay for the medium as well as a large if she wanted a larger size. My grandmother thought this was unreasonable and left. The lady was extremely rude and hostile. Today my grandmother and I tried to go again before we could get in the door the lady started screaming at us because I had my service dog with me and she was yelling about how it was illegal and I was breaking the law (if she was familiar with the Americans with Disabilities Act she would know this was not the case) I was so startled by the yelling and too tired to argue and explain so I just waited outside. She didn't even give me a chance to tell my grandmother what flavor I wanted before she started screaming at us to close the door. By this point I was completely and utterly traumatized. My grandmother promptly came out because the woman refused to serve her because of the incident two weeks ago. And also refused to serve me because I was with her. I have never in my life had such a terrible dehumanizing experience I am now equally afraid to go to their sister establishment for fear of being screamed at before setting foot in the door. Tread with caution! read more
