Stopped in here briefly after being intrigued by the colorful decor. I was immediately impressed by how welcoming and accommodating the staff were, and how creative the ice cream and toppings were! The birthday cake ice cream was delicious and didn’t taste artificial at all. Will definitely be back again.

Ethan is truly the heart and soul of Ice Cream Monster! From the moment you walk in, his energy is warm, welcoming, and absolutely contagious. He goes above and beyond to make every customer feel special — whether it’s recommending the perfect flavor combo, offering generous samples with a smile, or just creating a fun, upbeat vibe that makes the whole place shine. His passion for great service is obvious, and he treats every order like it’s the most important one of the day. Ethan doesn’t just serve ice cream — he serves joy, and that makes all the difference. If you’re visiting Ice Cream Monster, make sure to say hi to Ethan. He’s a total gem! Highly recommend — both the ice cream and the experience thanks to him.

Not only do they have the best butter pecan I have ever had in my life but they are the NICEST and warmest people. I am always greeted with a smile and they go out of their way to give samples and answer questions. I couldn't wait to write this review! Also super clean and cute decor!

We came here to try somewhere new! I can see this is a great place to bring kids. They have a lot of unique and delicious ice cream flavors. They also have vegan / dairy free flavors as well. They weren’t sure if they were gluten free so I stuck to chocolate to be safe. My fiancé got the fluff one and the monster ice cream flavors. It was a decent amount of ice cream for a kids size. I think it is a cool concept that they followed through with not just marketing monsters but you can actually make you ice cream look like a monster, which is awesome! There is a parking lot which is a plus.

Amazing place, amazing people. HUGE selection of ice cream flavors, my personal favorite is toasted marshmallow smores. The employees are awesome, too, and i didnt really realize how knowledgeable someone could be about ice cream, but Damien, Jenna, and Marianna whenever i go in are always super helpful to me. The owner, Chad, is a super cool guy too: always doing something to make his establishment more awesome. Cant say enough about Ice Cream Monster, and look forward to going in whenever im craving a horribly good treat.

I love ice cream monster ! As a Halloween lover , I love all the creepy flavors they offer and their cool cakes. For my birthday my husband got me a creepy skull cake with lots of gummies . Ice cream monster has some of the best gummies to add to your ice cream of choice. You can't go wrong with any flavor you choose, they're that good. I loved my birthday cake and it tasted incredible. This is my go to spot.

Wow! What a lovely family oriented ice cream shop. All of the staff were incredibly friendly and super helpful. As soon as we walked in the door we were greeted so warmly and felt so welcomed. The place is decorated and super cute too. But most importantly the ice cream is great. We tried numerous flavors and all of them were very good. Our favorites were the Gruesome Graham and the White Pistachio! Sooo good and soo flavorful!!! Can't wait to come back!!!!

Funny enough my first time trying Ice Cream Monster was in the middle of winter with snow on the ground. I brought my niece and boyfriend because I'd been wanting to try it and couldn't wait until the summer. The parlor was a lot smaller than it looked on advertisements. It had a colorfully contained chaotic feel, perfect for a "laboratory" atmosphere. I can imagine it would feel crowded in the busier months. The attendant was very lackluster and didn't quite deliver the "mad scientist experience" advertised nor was she knowledgeable about the flavors or toppings BUT we made our own fun. With plenty of wild combinations to choose from my niece put together her own ice cream creation which she enjoyed to pieces. There weren't many sugar free options but you don't go to a place like this for sugar free options haha. Highly recommend for anyone looking to try some unique flavors.

Unique ice cream parlor geared towards families. Nice selection of flavors and great service from the staff. Definitely a fun environment for everyone and kids would love the decor. The Ice cream has just the right amount of air into the mix giving it a very good con's and great mouth feel. Full flavor especially in the Mont Chocolate Chunk. A Must try!

I always wanted my ice cream to have eyeballs and now this is possible. Thanks, Ice Cream Monster! In all seriousness, this place is super fun inside and the kids get a kick out of the decor. Aliens and space stuff everywhere! They also got very creative with the ice cream names to add to the theme, which I appreciate. The ice cream quality is amazing so I highly recommend trying a few samples and filling your heart's desires!

This was a spot part of a large strip mall with some outdoor chairs available to sit at. There might have been a table or two inside, but not many. The service was friendly, and samples could be tasted. There were a ton of flavors to choose from along with various sundaes, floats, and shakes available. I do not believe the ice cream was homemade. I had a cup ($6+) of white chocolate raspberry and salted caramel pretzel. The scoops were very generous. The white chocolate raspberry consisted of white chocolate ice cream with a raspberry swirl and chocolate raspberry cups. This was my preferred of the two. There were plenty of raspberry cups and it paired nicely with the white chocolate ice cream. The salted caramel pretzel had vanilla ice cream with a caramel swirl and chocolate covered pretzels. This was tasty but could have incorporated more of a caramel flavor. The pretzels somehow remained crispy and were a nice added crisp to this ice cream. I also tried peanut butter Oreo and a brownie flavor I do not recall. The Oreo was very peanut buttery. I could have used a little more cookie flavor while the brownie flavor was too much of a dark chocolate flavor, but still not bad. Will I go back? Sure.

The staff were the nicest people ever and they didnt get annoyed by me asking to try every vegan flavor :) VEGAN options review: Tasted every flavor of vegan options they have and most were coconut based which i didnt really like, i just tasted coconut in them and no other flavor. However, the chocolate fudge was really good and i couldnt taste the coconut in that and it was extremely creamy and honestly didn't melt for a really long time which was interesting. Also the fact that ANY FLAVOR can be made into a soft serve!!!! Yes please!!! so fun and addicting. Also they have SO many flavored cones and they are all different colors which makes such a fun and unique look! Definitely will return when they come out with new flavors, hopefully some that aren't coconut based. Also the area and the monster theme is so cute and fun inside the store, really makes everything pop!

Amazing shop! Can't say enough about it. Had the pleasure of attending the Halloween trunk or treat car show and it was a great day! So many beautiful cars and nice people came out for the event. But the true win here for me is the line of "WuTang" Killah Koffee. Love that I don't have to travel to Staten Island to get a fix! The owner is soooo nice and I did sample some of the different custom flavors he stocks in the shop. It's great!!! Can't wait to stop in with the kids this week and try some more stuff.

This recently opened ice cream shop has a great variety of flavors. It was super busy for a Saturday night. They allow you to sample their flavors as well, which is helpful when there are so many delicious flavors to choose from. I got the golden graham and loved it! I sampled the cereal and milk but opted for golden graham just because it's been my recent favorite this year. The owner was very nice and wanted to know if we had been there before or if it was our first time stopping by. He was very friendly and welcoming.

Very cute atmosphere for the little ones but also enjoyable for a sweet tooth of any age. The ice cream is jammed packed with flavor! I chose 2 scoops 1 coffee fudge and 1 salted caramel in a dark chocolate cone. For those who have dairy allergies they have vegan options in an entirely separate freezer. I did not try the vegan options as of yet but I plan to go back again. There is indoor and outdoor seating available.

Great place ! Wonderful decor. We were so happy to see the owner of Gourmet ice cream in Keyport relocated here after the devastating loss of his business because of a building accident.

Super fun and crazy place. I had no idea this place existed but apparently it's Instagram famous. I highly recommend if you're trying to find some amazing ice cream flavor combinations. It's also a great place to bring if you have any kids. They make a different monster sundaes and milkshakes. I got their pumpkin Oreo and their coffee and cream ice cream and they were both outstanding. Sometimes pumpkin flavored things can be overwhelming, but this has the perfect amount of pumpkin mixed with the Oreo. I'm always a sucker for coffee ice cream and this is the best I've had in a while. It tasted like an iced espresso with Oreos. Perfect amount of bitter to sweetness ratio. All the girls that were working there were so sweet. They explaining what some of their specialty items are, and how they got famous on Instagram. The inside is like you're in a comic book or a children's TV show about monsters. Definitely a fun place to bring any kids if you have any.

Place just opened, and they started with the right foot. The flavor choices are great, they gave me a bunch of samples to try and the ambiance is incredible. Great vibes!

If you have kids, this is a great place to take them for ice cream especially if they love monsters. The theming of the shop to a monster lab is amazing and such a cute idea. Even the employees are called lab assistants. They listened to everything I asked for on my build a monster sundae and it came out quick.

I wish I could give this place 10/10. The vibe and scenery is amazing! To die for! The staff is so incredibly sweet. They were so kind with our daughter and service dog. Not to mention the milkshake I had was one of the best I've ever had! This will be our new family spot for sure. Perfect for yourself, family, dates etc!

My family lives in Virginia, but we drive through New Jersey 4 times a year when we visit our relatives in upstate New York. The past 2 trips, we've stopped at Ice Cream Monster and my family is obsessed! Such a cute & creative concept, lots of monster creatures on the walls. My kids loved their ice creams (they got a brownie flavor ice cream) and my wife & I got soft serve, which was refreshing and yummy. The service was very friendly too, I spoke with two employees who happen to go to my Alma mater (they recognized my SU hat!) and they were quick when serving me and very friendly. Overall, a super creative concept and would highly recommend for kids or adults alike.

Amazing service, the man helping us was so sweet and offered us many samples along with options. The second we walked in we were taken a back by the detailing of the atmosphere. It is a very fun place and the icecream was delicious. Such a variety of flavors, toppings, cakes, candy, and drinks. They even have monster themed cards to collect with every sundae purchase, eventually leading to a free sundae. Never had anything like it before and can't wait to be back!
