One of my favorite icecream shops and has a great variety of flavors and toppings. Always a line outside. I got a small sundae maple walnut flavor icecream,whip cream, sprinkles, and a cherry. Servings are generous. Wish they would expand and have a seating area and more light but its okay.

This ice cream spot truly lives up to its reputation as one of New Jersey's best! The trip was absolutely worth it. Their homemade ice cream is incredibly creamy and delicious, with a fantastic array of toppings and options to choose from. I took the server's recommendation for the banana peanut butter, and it was absolutely phenomenal. The chocolate chip flavor is also a must-try – so rich and delightful! Portions are massive, offering incredible value for the price. They boast an impressive variety of flavors, and the ice cream itself is wonderfully creamy, never too hard. Overall, it was an amazing and truly delightful experience, especially perfect for a hot sunny day

Hello. Curly's ice cream is excellent. It's creamy and tasty. The only negative I can say about this place is they never make any new flavored ice cream. The menu is always the same. They never have a flavor if the day. It's always the same flavors day in and day out. If this doesnt to matter you, than curlys is your place for ice cream. The lines are long, but the staff are well trained and extremely nice! Bon Appetite!

Curly’s is the old-school, local, family-owned ice cream place you see in Hallmark movies and think doesn’t actually exist in real life 😂 We’re just lucky enough to have them right here in our community! They give back to the community every chance they get and are truly just the sweetest people. And if you haven’t had their cherry vanilla ice cream… you haven’t lived 😂 HUGE pieces of cherries in every bite. When you get it fresh from the window, it’s the absolute perfect consistency—not too hard, not too soft. Literally the perfect bite 🤌🏼 The staff is always so accommodating and beyond sweet, especially when my kids take 45 years to decide what they want 😂 We absolutely love this sweet little part of our community and are so grateful we can have it anytime we want! 🍦❤️
