    Great stop for fried hot dogs. Also has a concession stand at the Mahwah pool. Parking at both locations.

    Took my daughter and sister here for lunch today. The food was great and the location perfect for any train lover. We ate outside on the picnic benches and my daughter loved playing with the new wooden kids train. We stayed for 30 minutes, but could have lasted another half hour if it wasn't nap time! Lunch was an excellent deal! $19 for a BLT, Crispy chicken salad, kids meal and two drinks. We will be back in the summer to try the ice cream!

    This is a great little shop right by the waldwick train station. Who doesn't love homemade ice cream...trick question...everyone does. Tye Waldwick Whistle Stop is the only NJ shop that carries Nelsons ice cream made in Pennsylvania Dutch country. They have both hard and soft serve and both are delicious. I had the espresso explosion, creamy, delectable, and had tons of chocolate covered espresso beans in it. You can really taste the love, and feel it to because the owners are very friendly. I will be back since they change flavors every week.

    Great food, ice cream, service!

    Great breakfast sandwiches and more than enough for your money! We had The "Engineer" and the "Conductor"....both delicious! While we were there for breakfast, we couldn't leave without trying the ice cream! Pumpkin, Death by chocolate, and Graham Slam were all big hits! What made the experience even better was high nice and friendly the owners were! Thanks so much for adding to our New Jersey visit!

    PROS: This is the best tasting ice cream I've ever had! This is hand made ice cream and I can…read moreeasily taste the difference. Place is clean, spacious, staff is friendly, loads of seating, menu variety plentiful, prices are fair, and it's in a good location CONS: Hardly any parking. it takes nine years to find paid street parking OVERALL: I'm recommending this joint to all my friends. This is absolutely a hidden gem

    What's the point of going out for ice cream if it's not homemade and interesting? Maroons Creamery…read moresatisfied our sweet tooth, offering tasty "handmade" soft serve and hard ice cream with not-your-standard flavors in various cups and cones. On a Saturday evening, we ventured in for a sweet treat and it was thankfully pretty quiet. They have a good selection of different flavors like guava cheesecake, black sesame and various teas. We enjoyed the saffron kulfi (almond, pistachio, cardamom) and cookies and cream (blue tinted which didn't seem necessary). The server gave us a nice big scoop for $5.99. In addition to ice cream cakes, they sell signature sundae type things that you can customize and likely friendly to the camera but not to your wallet. There's a good amount of seating towards the back, which is nice since most ice cream shops are small. There's also a location in Hoboken. Looking forward to returning!

    Van Dyk's is one of those classic summer traditions for my family. We usually make a few trips here…read moreevery summer, and it's easy to see why people keep coming back. Their homemade ice cream is delicious, and they offer a huge variety of flavors. We stopped by on a Friday afternoon and lucked out--it wasn't crowded yet. If you've ever been here during peak summer hours, you know that's a rarity. This place is a local favorite, and long lines are pretty common later in the day. I was really hoping to get my favorite, Bailey's Cream, but they were sold out. That's one thing to keep in mind: while they have a ton of flavors, they aren't always all available. I ended up ordering the Black Raspberry Chip with free rainbow sprinkles (my go-to), and it definitely hit the spot. Someone in our group got a milkshake and absolutely loved it, while another ordered the Cappuccino Oreo and enjoyed it as well. Portion sizes: A single scoop (their small) is surprisingly large. With prices having increased over the years, I'd love to see a smaller, more affordable option for those times when I just want a little ice cream. I also wish they'd let you choose two flavors in a small cup instead of requiring a double scoop (medium) if you want to mix flavors. A few things to know before you go: Van Dyk's is cash only, although they do have an ATM inside if you need it. The shop itself is very small, with no indoor seating or restrooms. There are only a few places to sit outside, so most people end up standing around or grabbing a spot on the small wall. Parking can also be a bit of a headache. The lot gets hectic, especially when they're busy, and better signage would definitely help. We've found it's often easier to park on a nearby side street and walk over. Even when the line is long, the staff does a great job keeping things moving. One employee usually takes care of an entire group from start to finish, which helps keep the ordering process efficient. Everyone we've interacted with has always been friendly and helpful. Even with the cash-only policy, limited seating, and hectic parking, Van Dyk's is still one of our family's favorite summer traditions. The homemade ice cream keeps us coming back year after year, and hopefully next time they'll have my favorite ice cream, Bailey's Cream, in stock.
