The Guide: Ice Cream Shops in Hunterdon County, NJ
How We Selected These Shops
This guide covers Hunterdon County: Flemington, Raritan Township, Readington Township (Whitehouse Station), East Amwell Township (Ringoes), Delaware Township (Sergeantsville), Clinton, Clinton Township (Annandale), Tewksbury Township (Oldwick), Franklin Township, Alexandria Township, Lebanon Township, Califon, Frenchtown, Milford, Holland Township, Kingwood Township, Bethlehem Township, Union Township, Lambertville, West Amwell Township, Stockton, High Bridge, Glen Gardner, Hampton, Lebanon Borough and Bloomsbury. Instead of one guide per town, this page covers the county at once, grouped by area.
A business is listed here if you can buy ice cream to eat on the spot: scooped, soft serve, gelato, a sundae, a float or an ice cream shake — no matter what else it sells. National chains are on this page on the same terms as anyone else; the test is the transaction, not the size of the company behind it.
Each business below was checked against its own website, and each row shows the month we last checked it ourselves.
About This Guide
This guide is produced by Garden State Circle. Ice cream shops appear here because they meet the criteria described above — a business where you can buy ice cream, in any form, to eat on the spot, with a location in Flemington, Raritan Township, Readington Township (Whitehouse Station), East Amwell Township (Ringoes), Delaware Township (Sergeantsville), Clinton, Clinton Township (Annandale), Tewksbury Township (Oldwick), Franklin Township, Alexandria Township, Lebanon Township, Califon, Frenchtown, Milford, Holland Township, Kingwood Township, Bethlehem Township, Union Township, Lambertville, West Amwell Township, Stockton, High Bridge, Glen Gardner, Hampton, Lebanon Borough or Bloomsbury, NJ. That is a test, not a judgment, and it is the only route onto this page. No business can pay to be included in this guide, to be listed higher, or to change what the comparison table says about it. Businesses are grouped by area and listed alphabetically within each group, and every detail in the table was verified against each business’s own website in September 2026.
Everything under the heading that begins this guide is governed by the rules above, on every guide we publish. Where a sponsor’s message appears above that heading, it is paid for and labelled, and it buys nothing in the guide. Garden State Circle is supported by the businesses that participate in it. Participation pays for our ongoing work: keeping a business’s entry accurate, re-checking its record, and publishing a page of its own details that the business maintains. There is no paid placement in this guide. Participation does not buy a place here, a position here, or anything the comparison table says. Where a row carries a verification date, that is when we last checked that business’s record ourselves. A row without one has not been checked recently — that is a fact about our work, not about the business. Ingredients, preparation and allergen handling change, and we record what each business publishes rather than inspecting kitchens. If you have a food allergy, confirm directly with the business before you order. Hours, menus and seasonal openings change often. Every detail here was verified on the date shown above.
