Ice Cream Cottage - Ice cream shop in Mastic - 1590 Montauk Hwy, USA

Yes, the ice cream is top notch. But it's really expensive. The staff enjoy talking to each other socially as you stand and wait. ALSO, while paying by card the option of giving a 10%, 20% tip was offered. Serving ice cream may pay poorly, but it felt uncomfortable to see. I'm not cheap, I do tip (when appropriate), this seems invasive. How do I know the servers get the tips?

Tons of flavor choices and unique ones & toppings.Sell Ice cream cakes & candy. The waffle bowls are great! However don't assume you will like their version of a flavor you are used to. I suggest ask to TASTE BEFORE YOU BUY. I tried couple and no thanks. My fan is pistachio, they have 2 choices for Sicilian-to me tastes pasty or pistachio nut idky but didn't like either so wasn't having it.

Love their ice cream! The custom cakes are even better. I love you can order them online.

Very tasty ice cream and I can see why it's the best of Long Island. I got the mint chocolate chip and it was awesome.

We just brought our kids here and they loved it.. Having grown up just east of Mastic, I only went to the Ice Cream Cottage once when I was about 10 years old, but I’ve been aware of this place as a local landmark for most of my life.. We recently heard that their ice cream was “homemade” so we thought we’d give it a try.. Their selection of flavors was pretty impressive, and they offer ice cream, gelato, sorbet and even Italian ices (they even had a vegan soft serve option).. We all found something that sounded appealing and tasted delicious!! They have a wide selection of toppings as well as cones, from sugar or waffle to pretzel or Oreo.. It was very crowded when we visited but it was all part of the fun and the line moved quickly.. Honestly we had just chosen our orders by the time we reached the counter. The prices were definitely reasonable if not cheap.. After we got our orders we joined all of the other customers outside on benches and ate our ice cream while our kids played with some new friends.. We didn’t try the cakes, so I can’t offer any feedback there, but the ice cream was great.. I’d say it was better quality and more appealing selection than Haagen Dazs or Ben & Jerry’s at a lower cost.. Side note, they have a HUGE selection of candy, both new and old school, so you can definitely get your fix here!! All in all a fun family experience and a great option for an occasional treat..

I am so incredibly tired of receiving incorrect orders at this place. I never leave reviews like this especially for local businesses but every single time we have placed an online pickup order here in the last 6 months, something is wrong with it. The last time we were missing an entire ice cream and had to turn around and drive all the way back after coming home. This time, I paid $2 more for toppings they neglected to put on. We keep giving them the benefit of the doubt because the ice cream is good, but there’s no excuse for this, it’s just pure laziness and it’s happened more times than I can count. We have been coming here for about 15 years and this place has significantly gone down hill in recent years. I’ll likely go back to the place in Manorville when they re-open in the spring. It’s not worth the drive here anymore.

very nice place to create memories of an excellent ice cream. it is worth visiting and when you stop by to try the classic flavors. my suggestion is blackberry, cannolle, bartman. It is worth remembering that here is specialized in customized cakes.

Excellent local Ice-cream establishment, the consistency is amazing and the variety is excellent, they are affordable and have a variety of candy available for purchase.
