The service is also great with the place being very organized despite the line being out the door. Walked in and out in less then 10 Min!

Do NOT sleep on Big Dipper Ice Cream! This place blew my mind with the amount of ice cream flavors…read morethey had to offer. I made the mistake of coming here solo and then having to call hubby to read to him alllll the flavors because I couldn't dare do that for him. One flavor sounds better than the next - strawberry cheese cake - what?! Moosetracks? Yeah, i'm gonna need that too! Then they trip you up with toppings! Too many decisions! I'm on vacation! I opted to get two scoops for each of us because no one walks outta here with just one. I got the strawberry cheesecake and moosetracks - a deadly sinful combo, while I got for hubby pistachio and cookies n' cream. We didn't come up for air while eating these! I found these flavors to be far superior to Ship Bottom Ice Cream - yes - I said it! There's a reason why everyone comes here as soon as the sun comes down. It's a great little family establishment with the hardest working teenagers and young adults I've ever seen. Sit on the benches outside or drive back to your beach rental and enjoy while watching the sunset. HUGE fan!

Jeffreeze. Period…read more I'm a local, and I will tell you that even in the dead of winter, during an ice storm, at 8PM, there will be a line at Jeffreeze. They have hundreds of options for ice cream. I try something new every time. I'm not even a sundae person, but the sundaes here are kick-ass. Almond Joy sundae is one of my favorites. Their portions are considerably generous for hand made ice cream (not factory garbage like Hershey that you get at most places). If you get something you don't like, trust me... try another flavor! There's a BILLION flavors, you are bound to not be keen on at least one or two. For every one flavor that turned you off, there will be six more that get you hooked again. At $3 for a mountain of ice cream, can you really complain? To whomever complained about flies, you are in a salt marsh in the pine barrens. There are pine flies here. Go home. For those of you who can deal, jeffreeze provides complimentary natural bug spray! They really have their bases covered.

As someone that has been visiting since the original opening of Shore Good Donuts, I unfortunately…read morefeel like the quality of the food here has gone downhill. I ordered the inside-out jelly which was very disappointing. Not only was the donut itself very stale-tasting, but the hole in the donut was huge, so the moment I picked it up, all the jelly fell out and it was extremely messy and difficult to eat. If you're looking for good quality, fresh donuts, I don't think I'd recommend this place despite its location and convenience. There are many other better spots on the island worth the money.

I didn't get to see the shop as my partner picked up donuts, but he told me they make them hot and fresh, so when he brought them they were still warm and nice. We tried Boston Cream and lemon glazed. Both were delicious, BC was exceptionally good. Donuts are soft and not overly sweet. Highly recommend them for beach days.

The staff is super friendly and answered any questions we had. The biggest plus was the dairy free ice cream! I didn't see it on their menu so I asked a server and was so happy to see they had vanilla, coffee and chocolate cookies and cream all dairy free. I am so happy to find a place that serves delicious dairy free ice cream. They accept cash and credit cards for payment and have a nice size parking lot. Seating is also available inside. I will definitely return!

A Sweet Surprise in Dunellen!…read more After living in the area for over 20 years, I finally stopped by this local ice cream shop--and I'm honestly blown away. I've visited twice now and each time has been better than the last. The shop is under new ownership, and Mike (the new owner) is awesome. Super friendly, easy to talk to, and clearly passionate about making this place special. You can feel the good vibes as soon as you walk in. I've never really been into Italian ice, but this place completely changed my mind. The flavors are bold and refreshing--Cappuccino and Mudslide are my personal favorites. Rich, smooth, and packed with flavor. And here's the cherry on top: they welcome your furry friends and even offer a complimentary pup cup to go. Both my dogs were very happy--and let's be honest, that made me even happier. I was too busy enjoying the Italian ice to snap a photo of it (it was that good), but I did grab a pic of the pup cups--because happy dogs deserve the spotlight too! If you're in or around Dunellen, do yourself a favor and check this place out. Great treats, great people, and a super welcoming atmosphere. I'll definitely be back!

My family and I had a grand ol' time at Our Endless Summer when we visited LBI. We were staying in…read moreSurf City and passed Our Endless Summer and were very intrigued. My kiddos love a good arcade so we had to stop by and check it out. Our Endless Summer is a smaller sized arcade but it was perfect to spend an hour or so there. There were lots of claw games (and many were play until you win, which is a win for me). There was also skee-ball, basketball, the usual video games, etc. What really stood out was the prize selection. They had SO many different types of prizes for a reasonable amount of tickets. My kids left with so much loot! And the girl who was helping out with the prizes, was so VERY nice and patient while my kids decided what to spend all their winnings on. There is also a small spot to grab ice cream (on the inside and outside). The spot might be small but they offer many flavors and combos. I highly recommend checking out Our Endless Summer when visiting LBI. It's a nice little break!

I dig the low lighting and the booths had that privacy feel to it. The Bread bowl burrata app was necessary and essential to kick things off. Everyone should start and end with that.

Limoncello chicken huge portion not overly sweet and the Parmesan on top sealed the deal and the Brooklyn Bolognese was real fresh and surprisingly light. Great service. Nice people. Solid desserts. Cheesecake and choc mousse cake were the way to go.
