It’s Summertime! And you know what that means – Ice Cream!
If you’re looking for a sweet escape that’s monstrously fun, look no further than Ice Cream Monster : The Monster-Themed Ice Cream Parlor! This quirky, family-friendly dessert spot is where spooky meets sweet, and every scoop comes with a side of silly scares and ghoulish giggles. From eyeball-topped sundaes to waffle cones gripped by zombie hands, this is no ordinary ice cream shop—it’s a full-on adventure into a world of playful monsters, and devilishly delicious flavors. Whether you’re 5 or 55, Ice Cream Monster is the perfect place to cool down and get your fright—and your sugar—fix. Ready to chill with a yeti or sip a milkshake with a side of fangs? Let’s dig into what makes this place a monstrously good time for the whole family!
🧟 Over 25 Flavors: Choosing what to get was the hard part. Every flavor looked so tempting. But we opted for the Birthday cake, vanilla with sprinkles & Cookie Creature flavors – of course topped with gooey eyeballs and bloody fangs 🩸, creating the scariest cones you’ll ever see 👹. You can take a look at all their varieties, here.
🍦 Cool Treats and Unique drinks: Outside of ice cream, the shop has a wide variety of candy, toys including monster puppets, and never before seen drinks to choose from. I’m talking Ranch Dressing, Buffalo Wing, Swamp Juice and Pickle flavored sodas. Yes, I tried a couple, and they surprisingly weren’t that bad 🙃.
The Pickle flavored Soda tastes like pickles and sugar, if that makes any sense. Definitely lives up to its name, but not as bad as it sounds. I LOVE pickles though, so maybe you can’t listen to me 🤣.
The Buffalo Wing Soda, on the other hand, tastes nothing like to name suggests — instead, this seems to be a flavor a lot of people would be able to tolerate. Imagine Orange Creamsicle with a hint of pepper.
There were so many other weird flavors try. I wish we would have gotten them all.
🧟 Outdoor Seating: Outdoor seating is the perfect touch to any ice cream shop on a hot Summers day.
🧟 Multiple Menu Items: There’s so much to choose from! Not only do they offer ice cream, but other menu items include shakes , coffee and espresso, pies, cookies, ice cream sandwiches, cakes & even Vegan options and Sorbet 😋. A variety of toppings and monster modifications are available as well, and you can even build a Monster Sundae!
🧟 Fair Pricing: I spent just about $50 for my order. Monster accessories were additional fees, and the sodas were about $3 each. Would I have liked to spend less? – yup. But still, I was ok with total.
📍We went to the Matawan location: 347-B Matawan Road (located in the Town Square Shopping Plaza) Matawan, New Jersey 07747
All in all, the ice cream was delicious, the Staff was great and the shop was clean. What more could you ask for?
Use your imagination! The creatures you can create are endless! What will you come up with?
Have you been to Ice Cream Monster?
