Based only on this first visit...this business is small, (despite its name) family oriented, and also serves food. My kind of spot for sure! Next visit will consist of the 2 steamed hot dog special for $5.75. Cash only is the only downside. Loved the vanilla frappe that my wife and I ordered! Great blend of syrup, hard Ice cream, and milk. They offer both hard or soft serve here. Will be back soon!

Great ice cream options (hard and soft serve) including 98% fat free frozen yogurt.Lime Rickey is awesome.Farmers cart in lot.Outdoor seating

Our First Visit Pleasant! Pleasant, engaging, helpful service. We had hot dog special, which was a great value; 2 small chili cheese (or whatever you like) hot dogs a drink and a small bag of chips.Ice Cream Parfaits featured an endless array of yummy toppings and soft serve. Great treat; we will be back!

The ice cream was good, but they were out of 3/4 of the flavors.

The BEST ice cream / frozen yogurt in the area. The staff is always friendly, and you dont have to pay an arm & a leg (like at another place in town). Just be prepared as they only take cash .... but you will NEVER be disappointed!! ❤

Love the Big 1. Staff is very friendly and polite. Their prices are good and the ice cream is delicious.

Great ice cream, but remember it is cash only and no ATM nearby

Ordered a small soft serve ice cream cone. It took both my wife and I to carry the cone to our car! When they say the Big 1 they mean it. :0

Nicee!!

Great softserve ice cream. Creamy and not icy. My vanilla flavor was great.Even though it was rainy, there was still a small line of customers waiting to be served. The line moved pretty quickly.The rest of our group got the chocolate vanilla twist ice cream, which was also very good.The kiddie size is plenty big enough for me. The prices were a little bit high, but the ice cream was good.

Staff were courteous and plenty of tables available. The ice cream was yummy!

O my went you get ice cream you get ice cream it is a great place for it and hot dogs mmmm

Love there ice cream very sweet people love coming here

Great little ice cream stand, nice employees!

Friendly staff and great ice cream choices!

Was surprised by how big a medium twist with Jimmie was. So good

Great customer service! Not to mention I absolutely love their phantomberry ice cream! Can only get it here and its sooooo addicting!

Amazing as always. I have been going here for over 40 years and I still love it!!

Stopped by for the 1st time today. The place was simple and clean, and had plenty of seating and tables scattered around the exterior.The girl at the window was pleasant and friendly, and my order arrived exactly as placed.Add in the bonus of the local produce cart on site, and Id say its definitely worth the trip!

First time here and it was THE BEST! The girl working the front totally understood my NEED for an awesome vanilla soft serve with EXTRA sprinkles that it almost made me cry tears of joy! I will definitely be a life long customer of this most deserving establishment! Thank you! 😍🤩

They have Richardsons and thats all I need for a great ice cream experience.

Great place! Big portions (hence the name 😉)

Best ice cream in town, hands down.

Always a wonderful experience and delicious ice cream! ☺️Grew up going there as a kid with my Dad and without him around anymore I still enjoy going and remembering him, thank you to all of you there who make this happen and for great ice cream!!! 👍

A staple of summer in nashua.

Awesome but expensive for what u get.

Had a wonderful Coffee Frappe.

Terrific ice cream stand--Reminds me of when I was a little kid with all the traditional treats as well as some updates! We will definitely be back

The quality of the 🍦🍨 ice cream seems to have gone down and the size of the take home quarts has decreased.

Mmmmm

Not a chain, not a franchise, a local family owned ice cream stand with a personal touch, a huge variety of ice cream flavors and meal options, outdoor tables with grass and trees that makes for a great summer evening vibe. Reasonable prices and portion size options for everyone.

Very good Ice cream

Always look forward to this place opening in the sitting! LOVE the sundaes, ice cream sandwiches and the hot dog/soda/chip combo.

Medium size peanut butter cup with chocolate sprinkles is the best!

Gotta try the heathbar crunch

Great ice cream.

Great ice cream and friendly staff. Ive met the owner and her husband a few times and they have always been very nice. Their vanilla based ice creams tend to be better than the chocolate based ones.

This is a wonderful place to get ice cream! They are not kidding when they call it the big one though, so be prepared to get your moneys worth!

The Big One has the best Ice Cream..Its one of our family 💘 ❤ traditions every summer ....Prices seem a little higher this year but the taste of real ice cream with family cant be beat....

Simply amazing, ordered small plain ice creame cone, and finished it a half hour later.

Nice to see people 👌 wearing masks. Was nice to get out and get ice cream.

I like ice cream.

Terrific ice cream shop with friendly staff, good size parking area, picnic tables and easy access from Exit 7.Large variety of hard ice cream flavors, couple soft serve, shakes, flurries and sodas etc. Average prices for the area, Greeley park close by. Visit multiple times every summer.

Best ice cream in Nashua!

Loved the ice cream and very fast service. Will definitely be going back 🤩

Great tasting ice cream at a low cost, compared to other near by places.

They always have excellent ice cream here one of the best in the city.the thing I like is they make their own where some of the other places have it made for them they have an amazing amount of ice cream flavors probably 35 to 50 I would say the pistachio is good possibly maybe put a few more pistachios in it I dont mind if you charge a little more for that cuz I am willing to pay for quality but overall they do have good ice creams they dont seem to use any artificial coloring which is nice but they also sell other things to you can get hot dogs and things like that as well to not just ice cream so you can get a nice nice lunch there as well they have plenty of picnic tables any of some of them down in the shade which is really nice like on a day like today where its in the 90,s . So overall a very good place to stop for a quick bite and the great ice cream

Cute little ice cream shack right off the highway. My stepdad wanted something sweet on a long car ride so I just googled whatever was nearby. Gotta be the most impressive menu Ive ever seen at an ice cream stand!!! I hadnt even wanted anything but couldnt resist trying one of their layered ice cream and topping parfaits. So delicious, I got it all over me and wasnt even mad! And theyve got a beautiful seating area to boot; shiny (clean!) picnic benches, very kid friendly. Gotta make a note to add another trip to Big One next time were in the area!!!!!

Love The Big One! We had a cup of chocolate & a Sundae. They have a great selection of flavors & a variety of ice cream treats . Cant wait to go back!

If you THINK you CAN, order the BIG one!! The namesake soft serve cone will satisfy for DAYS!! Vanilla or twist softserve with a variety of toppings or a vast array of options for hard ice cream. Homemade, creamy and OH so YUMMY!

Great Ice cream and a cute little farm stand.

Ice cream is awesome, prices are reasonable but the parking sucks. Always busy and a large variety of ice cream flavors. Must go place for ice cream.

So many flavors!!

Wanted a Nashua alternative to places further up DW HW. Ok place, and the staff is masked, but no distancing out front and I dont recall if I even saw ONE other person masked in the two visits Ive made in the last week. The crowds at King Cone, Haywards and Axels - better behaved and distanced. Sorry Big One.

Favorite icecream and great hotdogs!!!Still my go to....💜🍦(2021)

We never got bigger soft serve portions before! Great hard ice cream! They also have parfait and some other unique items. You can get a great hot dog first of youre really hungry!!!!!

Excellent as usual. Best chocolate softserve in the area. Havent tried delicious moose tracks this year my favorite hard ice cream.

Been here many times. Often times very crowed. Parking is limited. Several picnic tables available to sit at while you get your licks in (no seating inside). During the day you may find a farm stand in the parking lot.

Got a raspberry truffle nor’easter. about 5 little raspberry truffles in there. got a moose tracks ice cream, basically just vanilla ice cream. it was good vanilla, but not what i wanted.

We were disappointed with our experience after hearing such great reviews from others. My mocha chip was fine, my boyfriends moose tracks had freezer burn.

Met a Jedi and we drove a mech suit

So good. Great ice cream and decent service. The one downside is that they only take cash. But the ice cream is fantastic. Get the Heath Bar Crunch.

Fantastic ice cream! Portions are some what large

The name of the place states the obvious, The Big One! There ice cream is incredible as well worth the money! I dare you to order the big one, OMG be prepared for an ice cream meal, it is huge! My family and I go on a drive to enjoy a treat as a family. It does allow us to talk with out the stresses of daily life. So pack up the kids, the other half and yourself and go talk on a journey of ice cream enlightenment!

Great malted frappes and great deal on hot dogs.. 2 dogs, chips and a drink for $5.25!!!

Expensive, poor parking space. Ice cream was not bad

Brought the family for the best soft serve ice cream in town

Ice Cream Good Better than King Kone

How can you go wrong. This place is a gem.

Always a treat! Smores on smores cup that was decent. My young daughter wanted and after seeing the size I had to split it with her. More than enough for the two of us and quite tasty.

DELISHious as always

Always great service and delicious ice cream

I grew up going here at very minimum three days a week. Its your classic family-owned New England ice cream stand, that just so happens to have the best ice cream and chocolate dip. The Noreasters are awesome too.

Local farm stand in their parking lot has outstanding produce. Peaches are luscious and flavorful. Best Ive had in years.

Easy to find, added parking, competitive prices and loads of delicious flavors of Ice Cream, and Sherbets! For a quick lunch you can get their Hot Dog special : two dogs w/. condiments of your choice, a bag of chips (variety), and either a soda, Iced Tea or Lemonade 🍋.The only downside is that they close for the Winter.

I ordered a medium but it was like a small and it took almost ten minutes to get my ice cream but other than that it good

This ice cream shop is great because they offer soft serve ase well as regular ice cream and some food items!

Best ice cream place in Nashua. Way cheaper than Haywards. Would recommend orange pineapple and/or black raspberry. Heads up its only cash

Made the first stop of the season and was not disappointed had a great lunch topped it off with some great ice cream the people were very friendly and the outdoor seating was great

Another ice cream stand that doesnt take credit or debit cards. Dont try getting an ice cream sundae on a hot day in Nashua or Merrimack with a debit card. Will never come back.

Surprised, the icecream was good there was plenty of it, didnt eat it all, was reasonably priced.Been in Nashua for a long time and cant remember the last time I had icecream at the big one, so I should have gone more often!!

I have never been to this shop before but this afternoon I had a craving for some soft serve ice cream. I googled and found them, and I drove 20 minutes to get there. There was one man in line in front of me, and when he was done I stepped up to the window only to have it literally slam in my face. I sort of peered in, and made eye contact with a tall skinny young male who then turned away.So I assumed that the store was the type thats sort of always frantic and just doesnt value customer service, so I stayed where I was to wait for a chance to give my order. A minute later, another man arrived. As soon as he appeared, the window flew open and a cheerful girl stuck her head out, said Hi! and took his order.I can take a hint, so I left. One star because the service was so bad that I never got a chance to even try the food.

I was introduced to this place by a former coworker eight years ago. Their sundaes are great and I try to make a stop every time Im back in the area.

A lot of ice cream for a good price. They even replaced my daughters cone for free when she dropped it, which was very generous.

As far as Im concerned this place is the best for the banana split. You can customize it to your liking and the cost is reasonable as well. 5 stars from me

Very convenient location, consistent quality ice cream and the hot fudge is always just the right. And I just love the fact there is farm stand located there too.

Large portions

Really good ice cream.

Fantastic as always maybe there will be pictures next time but im fat an inhaled my cone before i thought of it

Fun place and great ice cream, but huge portions. Tip: if you dont want a huge portion or bill, get a half kiddie size or ask for an ice cream sandwich cut in half and share!

Awesome icecream great deal for the money

Only two servers so service was a bit slow but coffee frappe was delish. :)

Large portions. Yummy Ice cream creations. Friendly staff. Cash only.

Great ice cream! Everything Ive had there is absolutely delicious, and the workers are very nice.

One of our favorites! Generous portions and delicious ice cream. Not a ton of toppings though more every year. Tons of ice cream flavors though!

Love their ice cream

Gone there a few times, sometimes its packed. Good and quick service, large portion sizes, especially for price.

Hot hot day, cold cold ice cream = yummy but very drippy. My grandaughter loved it so much when she comes back in two weeks we need to go again.

Not for the faint of heart. Even the small is huge. Tons of flavors, easily the best ice cream place in the world.

Awesome place crowded for a small place licking good Ice creams and shakes
