Please Vote in FairfieldCountyChild.com's Official Ice Cream Poll!


I'm a hot mess today. So not prepared for this heat. I need a tan, a pedicure and a new summer wardrobe! Of course I'm craving ice cream too - but that's a quick fix thanks to all of you who weighed in on informal ice cream poll I posted two summers ago (click here to view it).  Since then, many of you have mentioned your favorite places to bring the kiddies for ice cream in Fairfield County. So I've compiled a list of all the establishments and it's now an official poll. So please vote (see poll above) and pass on to your friends! The winning establishment will be recognized with ummmm, not sure what yet. But they will be recognized! Thanks for your input.

this was so hard, but so fun! I grew up on DQ so had to give them my vote :)

I just drove by Helados Vazquez and it is closed. So sad! I am going to miss their delicious gelatos!

That's too bad about Helados Vazquez! I've been meaning to go. I'll take it off the list. Thanks for pointing that out but it's a bummer.

SC -thanks for the vote. Gotta love DQ!

I've been disappointed in the ice cream offerings in the Stamford/NC/Darien/Greenwich area. Thanks for giving me a few more to try! I was quite sad when Emack & Bolio's closed a few years back, as it seems to leave us with generic softserve and the over-sweetened mess that is Cold Stone creamery. I did recently discover a Ben & Jerry's in Mt. Kisco, but that's a bit of a hike...

You left off Baskin-Robbins in Darien, which my kids always ask for and which would have gained my vote. Surely if a chain like Dairy Queen belongs, so does B-R. You also missed out on the recently opened Tasti-D-Lite in Darien's Noroton Heights.

Hi Erika! I based my list off the "nominated" establishments that were mentioned over the last two years as comments on this post. http://fairfieldcountychild.blogspot.com/2008/06/whats-best-ice-cream-spot-in-fairfield.html
I wish I could add the two you mentioned but once people start voting I can't edit the poll.. grrrr! I will try to figure something out so we can get Baskin Robbins and TastiDelite on the list.

FYI - Cold Stone Creamery on High Ridge in Stamford is closed. I tried to visit last week and it was gone.

Jessica said...

I will have to take a small detour on my vacation to visit some of these spots, but I will try to work at least a few of them in!

Thanks for the tips!
