The Story

Step into this iconic, old-school diner with heart and history, where you can grab a seat at the counter or a booth. Their ice cream is amazing, with tons of flavors available in cones, cups, or sundaes. Don't miss their delicious brownie sundae with vanilla peanut butter cup ice cream, or a classic vanilla milkshake and ice cream soda.

    I first heard about Holsten’s while scrolling through Instagram. One look at the photos and I immediately added it to my bucket list. I stopped in on a Saturday afternoon, grabbed a seat at the counter, and ordered the brownie sundae with vanilla peanut butter cup ice cream. It was exactly the kind of nostalgic dessert that makes you feel like a kid again. They’re also open late and serve burgers, fries, sandwiches, and all the classic diner favorites. Walking into Holsten’s feels like stepping into a time capsule. Counter seats line one side of the room, booths fill the dining area, ice cre

    Lot of heart and history in this tiny joint!! The service is great, and the ice cream even better. I need to sit down for a burger of BLT soon. I had a sundae, it was delicious. I love the ice cream here. Classic spot with a booth dedicated to the iconic Sopranos. A staple for any tourist who has seen the show, come get some ice cream here and you won't be disappointed!! I loved my ice cream from here. Always have since my sister first took me here! Ice cream is delicious, rich creamy and flavorful. Special flavors rotate. Always a classic nostalgic feel. The whipped cream comes from what loo

    Old school diner. We visited to experience their Vanilla Milkshake and Ice cream Soda on their National Day 😁 Both were delicious. The food was okay, nothing exceptional. Staff was attentive. Street parking.

    One of my favorite places in New Jersey. The ice cream is amazing. Tons of flavors, and can get in a cone, cup, or a Sunday. They also have pretty decent food. Hamburgers, hotdogs, sandwiches, fries, onion rings, that kind of stuff. They have tables and a counter. Place can get full on a weekend or holiday. Parking is in the back. Brandon is always kind and attentive when waiting on customers.
