Extremely affordable Id say... The wait was fairly quick, as quick as it could be. Service is great as well... absolutely zero issues with getting exactly what we wanted to order. Now the parking lot is pretty small so I could imagine on super busy days you may have to be a bit creative. Best part of the walk is the boardwalk style walk right down the street, the seating is limited so maybe taking a stroll may be your best option or even sitting in you car. Id definitely recommend this place!

Lots of options, quick service. You gotta know on a hot day at certain times its mobbed. My biggest issue is parking. Lot holds maybe 15 cars. From there its park where ever and walk. That gets interesting after dark. Only had the ice cream, but they have food. Looked good(side eyed the guy in front of me,looked like a 2 hotdogs plate.) Was like 5 bucks. So price was good too

Best ice cream in the New Bedford greater area. Exceptional variety of flavors. And as always the super tasty soft serve twists.

The ice cream really isnt all that special, just your typical soft serve. It certainly not worth waiting behind 50 people in line like there normally is. The saving grace of this place is the cherry candy dip they have. But the lack of a lot of seating and the location too close to the street make you want to eat in your car if you have small children running around.

After spending 15minutes looking at the menu, mentally creating the MOST AWESOME banana split, only to find out they were SOLD OUT of one of my topping..Having said that, and being TOTALLY DISGUSTED, I DID NOT have anything..Thanks for the reply owner, unfortunately, i will NEVER return to your establishment

They need better organization. This has been my favorite ice cream shop since childhood but I refuse to ALWAYS have to wait in an hour long line for an ice cream. Why not have a system ?? people wait in cars?? or online ordering ?? I gotta find a new place lol

Review β„–34

Got two soft serve orange sherbet and vanilla twist. First the color of the sherbet is so strange, it’s not like any other sherbet I’ve had so it’s super processed...... ended up tasting like it too, did not taste like orange sherbet but instead just extremely artificial....although I literally too two licks, with the second lick the entire top of the cone came off falling in between my seat and center console. What an absolute mess. Had they filled the cone with ice cream and continued to the top instead of just a round blob on top of the cone that wouldn’t have happened.

Review β„–51

Drove from 2 hours away to go here. The mint moose tracks was awful...there were brown chunks of ice in it that tasted like old fruit or something. Also the ice cream was not creamy. I should have stayed local and gone to Hayward’s. My friend got a s’mores ice cream and she said it barely had flavor. She ended up scooping out the ice cream and just eating the cone.

The quality and quantity of ice cream speaks for itself. Although there was a wait during the pandemic it was worth it! Better then Acushnet Creamery in my opinion in terms of value for the price. Dairy Maid will be my new go to ice cream place!

A perfect summer spot to get your ice cream fix, and its right next to the hurricane dike, a wonderful place to walk and enjoy Buzzards Bay while you eat your ice cream. Large variety of hard ice creams, solid selection of basic soft serve flavors, and they always come out with new specials and flavors every year. This is a staple for locals and a must for tourists.

Great hard and soft serve ice cream. Excellent selection (even some kooky things like unicorn ice cream for the kids) and fast service. It is cash only though so be prepared - a lot of seasonal businesses are. Prices are very fair and portions are large - a small cone is massive! Its worth every penny, and I highly recommend the ice cream here.

Dairy Maid has been a staple in New Bedford for many years and has the best soft and hard serve ice cream and serves food and drinks. My wife had a hot fudge Sunday and I had the banana split....it was like a meal. Fantastic spot to relax and enjoy a nice cold snack. Prices are not bad at all compared to other places we have been to. This place is always busy, so it MUST be good. The servers work hard and are very courteous. Well be back soon.

Review β„–87

I ordered ice cream and hot dogs ate my ice cream and waited over 20 minutes for my hot dogs when the kid started asking me what I ordered it apparently wasnt in his register even tho he charged me correctly and gave me my change. Worst part was leaving me there for all that time while trying to figure it out and not telling me he had an issue.
