Ladies and gentleman, don't walk, RUN, to Mr. Frosty's! Even after all these years being their…read morecustomers, these guys are still one of Connecticut's best ice cream joints period! Don't mind the long lines, crowds of people, or the 500,000 vehicles eating, sleeping, and roaming these roads of East Norwalk. Trust me, this place is worth all the traffic! I've been coming here almost every summer since I found this place back in 2015. There's usually several people already in line by the time I arrive, but it's never a long wait. It gives me just enough time to decide what ice cream I want to try, what toppings I want, and how I want to pay for my ice cream. I've always been more of a sundae guy because that means I have a far less chance of my ice cream spilling, and so that's basically always what I get here. Today's sundae was a large Chocaholic with peanuts, cheesecake bites, whipped cream, hot fudge, and cherries. Yeah people, I am a chocolate lover. Don't like it? Deal with it! And as always, my ice cream was top-notch delicious! What truly makes these experiences magical is the location. Yes, I know it's not directly next to the water, but this leads into one of my favorite Connecticut summer pass times ever! To optimize my experience, I would carry my ice cream over to the Overton's dock, sit on a bench that's right at the end of the dock, face the water, and enjoy away on a nice summer day. I love to feel the sea breeze caress my skin as I look over the harbor, ice cream in hand. I love to imagine myself riding on a boat, or maybe sit at the edge of a pier, feet dangling just mere inches over the water as I enjoy my summer treat. It's always a soothing sensation, and I only need to walk a very short distance to make it happen. Mr. Frosty's, I love you so!

Parking in the public lot is easy enough to find, though it definitely gets a little tight navigating in and out during rush hours. The shop itself is super bright and clean, and the outdoor courtyard seating is great when the weather is nice. The staff working was incredibly friendly and patient. I ordered three scoops of their vegan ice cream on a vegan sugar cone. The team member was so careful stacking each scoop to make sure the whole tower wouldn't topple over--I managed to snap a quick photo of the masterpiece (see photo!), but sure enough, I didn't get very far before gravity won and the whole thing came tumbling down. Without missing a beat, the staff member immediately made me a fresh one and kindly packed it into a cup this time around. Super helpful and genuinely great customer service. The ice cream was delicious, as always. Definitely hitting this spot again--though probably only after a heavy workout to balance it out!

Saugatuck Sweets is an ice cream parlor and candy shop that opened in Westport, Connecticut in May…read more2014. It was founded by husband and wife Al and Chris DiGuido. The shop offers ice cream produced by Stamford-based supplier Longford's Ice Cream as well as locally-baked pies and cakes. The shop also features a large selection of nostalgic loose candies; customers can make their own custom goodie bags. A second location opened in Fairfield in 2016. The original Westport location closed its doors in December 2023 due to financial problems caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. My family and I recently visited Saugatuck Sweets for ice cream. We just had lunch next door at Firehouse Deli and thought that ice cream sounded like a good dessert idea. We really liked the interior and their selection of old school candies. After looking over the menu, I ordered a cup of "Peanut Butter Blizzard", my wife ordered a cup of "Mint Oreo Bomb", and our son ordered a cup of "Cookie Monster". We all enjoyed our choices. We had a nice experience at Saugatuck Sweets and would definitely stop there again on a future trip to the area.

We got a large cotton candy gelato, two blizzards (unfortunately they were out of snickers so we had to do Reese's peanut butter cup - sad face), and a chocolate vanilla swirl cone. We got our moneys worth! They don't skimp on the portions or toppings. The guy working the window was super kind and friendly. He even asked if we wanted vanilla or chocolate for the blizzards (I didn't know chocolate was an options) and gave us an extra cup and spoon for the cone without asking. They take Apple Pay and are super fast. Can't wait to go again!

I ordered the caramel cookie gelato, which was delicious, just a tiny bit too sweet (I enjoy sweets, so this says a lot, haha). The next flavor I added on top of the caramel cookie gelato was the maple walnut ice cream. The maple walnut was crafted perfectly. I am unsure what my grandpa, grandma, and dad ordered, although they all enjoyed their ice cream as well! I appreciated how eagerly attentive the staff were when we ordered. They were even beyond informative and very patient when we were making our order. Overall, this place was worth the drive to see our family friend and left us full and happy for our drive back home!
