On a friends camping trip to the Cape we were in Sandwich for two days and after getting ice cream at The Shipwreck the first night, we had to come back on our second day!The staff is friendly and helpful. The ice cream selection is extensive and delicious!Ginger was the winner for our group. I loved the ginger pumpkin combo I got.In addition to great ice cream, there is a lot of charm at this place - you can take a peak at the tortoises in the fenced area in the back or lounge on fish or skull themed Adirondack chairs. There are quite a few tables for sitting and licking your ice cream.Great location, great value, definitely hope to return soon!
My family all bought ice cream except my youngest son who has issues with really cold food due to his autism. I asked the women at the desk if I could just get a small cup of Chocolate sprinkles on the side instead of on my ice cream (on there menu it states that sprinkles are free with any ice cream purchase). I was told that they could not do that. I told the women about my son and even stated I would pay for the small cup of sprinkles and she still refused. If I could give zero stars I would. Nice time with my family ruined because of there ignorance and I will not be returning there!!!!
Went in the off season, the ice cream was great and the location is easy to get to. Prices are reasonable, and servings are huge!
Great ice cream and service with lots of tables to sit. At entrance of Sanwich(MA) marina
I got the mango ice cream which was good, but the texture and quality of the ice cream is amazing. If I lived in the area I would come here more to find the right flavors. Definitely worth visiting!
A new fave for us. Great flavors and large waffle cones. Sandbar cinnamon graham is the best I’ve ever tasted! (Tortoise pen was in desperate need of cleaning)
Now this is the spot. This is my second favorite spot on the cape for ice cream. Always fresh tasting and always fast. Too many options to count for flavors and ice cream variants. Prices are good and the line is LLLLLOOOONNNGGGG! On a hot day, get here early. I promise, it will be worth the wait.
Very good with lots of options. Reasonable priced for the area. Cash only!
First visit in a long while. Ice cream is very good. Staff are pleasant. Needs attention to cleanliness and neatness on the outdoor spaces.
Great Fraps, get extra straw. There paper straws dont last through the entire frap.
We had to go to Sandwich today so we stopped for lunch then for ice cream! Honestly we didnt need the ice cream, but when we were driving by I just about jumped out of the truck when I saw Crunch & Munch the Sulcata Tortoises in their pen outside! I made Russ stop so I could meet the tortoises and it only made sense since we were there to get ice cream too! The ice cream was delicious and the employees were so friendly. I also got to meet the owner, Greg as I of course wanted to inquire about the 2 Sulcatas, the 4 Red Eared Slider Turtles and the really cool skull Adirondack chairs! Greg was super nice and gave me the info for the chairs. His brother Brian makes them. If you want to have some delicious ice cream, meet some really amazing Tortoises and Turtles and support local then definitely stop by this great place!!
Great place for.kids and familyAwesome selection of hard or soft ice creamAnd they have 2 exotic huge tortoise and several water turtles the kids or.anyone can see and interact withAlso has a small scuba shop attached if you need your tanks refilled
Cash only. Had a Moose Tracks with hot fudge. Hot fudge looks like its the real deal vs chocolate syrup used by others near by. Pricing was good, service is quick. Id stop here again anytime.
Lovely little place with a ton of ice cream flavors and toppings, reasonable prices, and great outdoor seating area
Yummmm. Quite popular ... Expect a wait to order. Lots of choices and options!!
Cookie Monsta ice cream was delicious. Nice outdoor seating. Reasonable prices.
REALLY GOOD OFFER CREAM! Wide variety of combinations to choose from.
Very good except a small twist in a cone is absolutely massive but the girl offered me a bowl right away
Now to be honest, I never tasted the ice cream last weekend not one time! My hubby, his friend & wife drove to this place 2 nights straight in a row. They talked about that icecream as though it had given them some blank blank satisfaction😳! My husband had 3 scoops the 1st night then 1scoop the 2nd night because I begged him to. You should hve heard how they praised this icecream as though it was something new on the planet!! They all ate the icecream cones so fast I couldnt get a shot...next time.
The best ice cream in sandwich . Huge chunks of chocolate chips in every bite. Black raspberry chip is awesome
We LOVE purple cow. Every visit to the cape we end up here, no matter where else we go!
Good ice cream 🍦 very busy place.
My kids love it and we have been coming to the cape over 25yrs
Ice cream was great with an incredible price for six people, seriously worth a visit!
Courteous staff, delicious ice cream!
Good ice cream. Beware Cash only.
Many flavors. Big portions! Yummy 😋
Great ice cream. The long lines will attest to that!
Ice cream was good but they should take cards
Great spot near the marina with a great variety of awesome flavors.
Great selection of interesting and delicious ice cream.
Huge choose of ice cream. Enjoy your cup or cone al fresco.
Very good. Great service
Ice cream was the best. Had Oreo cookie
Tasty ice cream with plenty of space, tables, and chairs outside to enjoy it. There are plenty of choices for flavors, toppings, and options. I had moose tracks on a waffle cone with sprinkles. The waffle cone was fresh and crunchy. We visited on a warm and sunny Saturday afternoon and there was only one server working. The line quickly got 10 people deep and everyone was wondering why there want more staff. The girl behind the counter did her best to serve us all as quickly as she could but kids have a hard time waiting. Id go again if in the area.
Great 🍦. good prices.nice little setting.
Located within a short distance of the beautiful Cape Cod Canal bike path. Very large selection of flavors with equally large selection of toppings. Ice cream, frozen yogurt, and soft serve. Plenty of outdoor distanced seating. Four of us had different ice cream flavors and all were excellent. Creamy and no ice crystals!
Great place to stop for ice cream
Very nice whimsical ice cream stand, lovely.
The girls there really strive to make a great banana split!
So many great flavors, fast service and delicious
Good ice cream and staff was very friendly
The best ice cream hands down.
Best ice cream and frappes
Great ice cream with the best service!
Great ice cream
Excellent, high quality and very tasty ice cream!
Delish Ice Cream. We had the atom bomb with pistachio chocolate peanut butter chocolate moose track ! Tons of toppings and generous helpings !
Always a pleasant experience.
Bunnies, turtles and goldfish in the pool, oh, and great ice cream served by a super friendly crew. What more could you want from a trip to the Cape Cod canal. A must stop whenever in the area.
A new ice cream favorite! So many flavors, generous portions, friendly staff, clean as a whistle, relaxing place to sit in the shade and enjoy your treat! Will return again for sure!
Great ice cream with a ton of flavors and toppings. They also have cute bunnies and a fish pond with turtles.
The staff are extremely friendly and I do like this place. But when my family came back to my house though, I noticed that I got a cookie dough ice cream with sprinkles when I told my mother to order a chocolate and vanilla twist ice cream with gummy worms for me. So therefore, that was the only issue I had tonight.
Awesome! Rick finally had some frozen pudding and I had ginger. Refreshing after walking 4 miles on the Canal Bike Path!
Good little ice cream stand down the road from the Cape Cod canal and marina. My husband likes the butter crunch ice cream and his second pick is banana. The chocolate is good as well. They have good service and some cute fuzzy rabbits you can visit on the property.
Great selection of good quality ice cream. Try a caramel sundae on vanilla (my wife gets caramel on coffee ice cream). Delish!
Plenty of flavors, kids friendly with turtles, fish & rabbits but no restrooms was a problem especially when willing to wash your hands...
Excellent place to bring young kids. Ice cream to eat, turtles, tortoises, rabbits, koi and turtles to see. Shade to sit in.
Everyone was patient, long lines, not angry elves that periodically show up at other ice cream venues...Excellent, courteous, staff, great prices & awesome ice cream.!!
Great summer spot
Great ice cream!
The first time I went here I got Sandbar Swirl and it was delicious. The second time will be my last time as I ordered Oreo and received Oreo, mint, and bubble gum so I guess they dont wash their scoops?
Shipwreck is our favorite. Personally I like their ice cream flavors (and quality) as well as the creative sundaes. The kids like the rabbits, turtles, fish, and tortoises....and the ice cream. The parking lot now has some tasty food trucks present including Cape Cod donuts (which I have not yet tried but hear they are fabulous). If I get to choose where, of the 7 ice cream shops in the area, we eat ice cream...I always choose Shipwreck! If youre headed to the Sandwich Marina, Town Neck Beach, the Boardwalk, or are seeking desert after a local meal the kids will thank you for checking out Shipwreck!
Great little ice cream stop, theres ample parking and the prices are decent. We had the milky way which was delicious, just wish it had a few more chunks/fillings as it was mostly just chocolate ice cream. Would definitely come back!
Bit of a line but with good reason, ice cream was fantastic. Great space for kids and adults alike. Many flavors to choose from and easily accommodated our party of 12 even with a crowd. Pets on leash allowed. Fish pond and rabbit cage to keep children entertained!
Awesome halloween decorations, fantastic ice cream, a gem.
If your looking for good ice cream this is a must stop and try. Clientele very friendly.
Best ice cream ever ever. Very Large servings.
Great ice cream
Good icream everyone is spaced apart on the grounds staff was pleasant portions are good size
Quick walk from Fishermans View and next to a BBQ place for a quick and cheap dessert. They have a huge variety of hard scoop ice cream, and toppings. My family of 5 got ice cream for $20 and we were all satisfied with our portions. A few of us walked over from Fishermans View and got to wave to a train full of passengers on the Cape Cod Dinner Train. There wasnt a long wait to order, but they had fun little yard games that we played a few rounds to pass the time.
Great ice cream and service with dairy free and vegan choices.
Good ice cream. Overall great place to go
My favorite place for ice cream. Love to bring the little ones. They can eat their ice cream while they watch the mini zoo of turtles and bunnies. The ice cream is top notch and prices are good.
Lots of All Natural Ice Cream flavors to choose from.. Heaping portions, which is always a hit with the kids! Plenty of Umbrella covered tables.. Kids enjoyed the turtles, fish, and rabbits! A must stop coming or going from the waterfront walking & biking trail.
Nice place and great assortment of cool flavors.
Quick service and delicious ice cream!
The kids that work here are great, the atmosphere is adorable a turtle pond and bunnies. Kid friendly! If ordering waffle cones get a spoon lots of ice cream in these.
Great ice cream, fast service and the ability to social distance outside
Decent ice cream. Love the animals around
Super high quality ice-cream with a lot of choices. The place is cash only, so make sure to stop at the ATM on your way.My kids love getting ice-cream here and looking their little turtle pond. This is a perfect spot after a walk on the canal.
Best ice cream in Sandwich. Great homemade flavors. Try the coffee Heath bar, grapenut or cherry vanilla... And theres always their decadent chocolate.
Great selection of flavors. Quality of ice cream not quite as good as Ice Cream Sandwich, but still worth the trip. Staff very friendly and very knowledgeable of the ingredients of the flavors. Prices comparable to other vendors.
Great place
Serving sizes are too big, great flavors, no bathroom.
Portions were pretty decent but my coffee heath bar flavor was sufficiently lacking. Nice sets of picnic tables under trees blowing in the breeze.
Always super friendly and has delicious Icecream! Lots of yummy choices. So reasonably priced!!
I love The Shipwreck icecream! The best Sunday and they make all their waffle cones! Plus they have the great hours!! Thank you for being open late so early in the season!!!
Too many options for one visit, this became a daily trip during my time in the area, and i still didnt get to them all. Oreo Mint Chocolate and Peanut Butter Oreo were both amazing. Access was easy, parking was sufficient, and staff were all friendly, helpful, and patient. I will be back.
The ice cream is good, no real different or unique flavors. If you have young children this place is great because they have bunnies, fish, and turtles you can check out while you eat your sweet treats.
Great ice cream place. The kids loved the animals (turtles, fish, tortoise and rabbits).
