Family ice cream
Valeria N.

Brand new ice cream spot in Sparta. This building is on our way to the vet and it had been decrepit and sad for a while, they did a great job on renovating it to its former glory. The ice cream was great! We tried the chocolate peanut butter and coconut choco almond The chocolate peanut butter was not as sweet as I expected and more to the dark chocolate side, which I loved!!!! Coconut choco almond - is a creamy vanilla ice with shredded coconut, chocolate chips and almond slivers. Think high quality almond joy! Definitely brought joy to the gloomy rainy day. Our pup Whiskey got a cup of whipped cream cause he is the goodest boy!

Great ice cream and excellent service! They did s great job with picnic tables on concrete slabs, umbrellas and music that you can enjoy. Highly recommend taking the time to stop here for a sweet treat! There is small line, but 3 outdoor windows and one inside as well, so not much of a wait at all.

The ice cream is just average and doesn't taste home made. The music is super loud and the sounds quality is bad.

Best place in Sparta for ice cream, hands down. Rachel always knows the best flavors and her recommendations are why I will be back soon.

Sparta dairy has been a staple in Sparta since I was little! I always loved coming here as a kid. I…read morehaven't in the past few years because I went vegan and didn't know if they had non dairy flavors. I called tonight out of curiosity and they said they have dole whip - pineapple and cherry! While it isn't hard ice cream, dole whip is still so good so I went. I got the pineapple dole whip and it was amazing! The workers were very friendly, we were in and out in probably less than 5 minutes with a handful of people ahead of us, and the vibes were lovely. My only suggestion would be to add a hard vegan ice cream flavor or two to compete with other nearby places that have vegan flavors. That being said, this place is great and I very much enjoyed!

I Went in for a Sundae that I had been craving all week. I ordered a simple vanilla sundae. When I…read morewas given my order not Only was the fudge dripping down the cup all over the counter and all over the servers hands, which looked very unappetizing, but I was given chocolate and vanilla ice cream, not the vanilla that I ordered. When I told the girl that the ice cream flavor was not what I ordered, I was told that she was "too busy for this" and she wasn't going to make me what I ordered. I ended up just leaving and going down to the shop down the road for my sundae (which was made correctly and was delicious) but when I turned around to leave the girl then said "that's fine, bye". I couldn't believe that's how they treat paying customers. I won't be returning.

It was such a beautiful night, my parents and I came and we each got our own pizza. Pizza came out in maybe 15 minutes, we sat and waited and just chilled. It was a beautiful night. I am so appreciative that Windy Brow has a vegan cheese option, so I could be included! I got the Margherita pizza and subbed vegan cheese. The crust and dough were incredible - so fluffy, perfectly crispy, amazing thick crust. The vegan cheese was also great, and the sauce too. Just a perfect pizza. My dad got a regular Margherita and loved it, and my mom got the fungi pizza with mushrooms and was raving about it. My boyfriend got the pig and fig and (of course) loved it as well. We all raved to each other about how amazing everything was. For a farm to do something like this when they don't need to, shows that they love what they do! You can really feel the love in the pizza. We then got ice cream after since the ice cream stand was still open. I got the vegan dark chocolate sea salt (literally incredible, perfect consistency, I love hard ice cream so this was amazing), my boyfriend got Madagascar vanilla and said it was a perfect classic vanilla, my dad said the cherry vanilla was the best he's ever had, and my mom who doesn't love ice cream got the lemon blueberry butter cake and was raving about it. Phenomenal job!!!!! So appreciative to live near a spot like this. Blessings!

I SCREAM u SCREAM! We all SCREAM for icecream! You've come to the pinnacle icecream place -…read moreDenville Dairy! The line was nearly out the door. So this must be one of the best IceCream places for miles, and IT IS! When we came in & got our ticket, we were # 56. The # they had served so far was 35! So it gave us a few min to walk up & down the streets to view all the cute stores. After about 10 min they called our #~ we felt like, holy cow! What fast service! I had the mint chocolate chip w hot fudge. But by the time I was able to sit down on their bench in the store, my hot fudge had mostly melted my IceCream quite fast. So I went to the counter to ask for half a scoop so I wasn't eating icecream soup. The girls behind the counter said to ask JOHN, an owner(his dad is also an owner) & when I showed him my melted icecream & that I would pay for an extra scoop, and you know what JOHN said? He said they can't add it to my existing cup & turned around (to my surprise & delight) scooped up a "healthy size scoop" into a sept cup, ON HIM, $0!!!!! I told my husband- omg, now he has a customer for life! So cool! That one act of kindness was sooo nice. And we chatted (even tho it was soo busy - he took the time to answer my questions about the how long it take to a big jug/gallon container and he said 15 min- from start to finish! And he said he loves his job bc he can make as many flavors/combos he can think of & it turns out to be a real creative process. I asked about catering & they don't do that, but you can order as many gallons as you want. He even shared how the NY Giants (I think that was the team-lol) ordered a BUNCH of gallons for an event they had! He & all his employees "the girls" were soooo nice. And the icecream? I've never tasted ice cream that was so creamy & the choc pieces/chip were to die for! Not like little tiny pieces and they weren't super hard, just the right size & melted in your mouth like a dream on a chocolate river! I'd be remiss to give Denville Dairy anything under 5 And bc they sell a superior product, they are super busy, the girls are super nice & good at what they do! On a weekend you should plan to have 8-10 min in line & as far as parking, you may need 15 min to find it. But bc they serve quickly - chances are parking will be available quicker than you think. But during the Summer days I think parking can be a challenge- on Sunday night- even w a full house. It was a breeze to order! Thank you John for a yummy superior product (ice scream) made w ALL NATURAL ingredients! Cheers- Ur Cust 4 Life I SCREAM FIR ICE CREAM

There's plenty of flavors and items to choose from, so it's a great spot to visit to meet your ice cream needs.

The shop is also located in a prime spot to go strolling through the main area of Denville with your ice cream.
