"If you want a cake from the Ridgefield Ice Cream Shop, order it in advance. It is 100% better than the kind that come from franchised ice cream parlors."
Michael Stern

"Many of the house specialties are available frozen, to take home and put in the freezer. They're swell, but cannot compare to ice cream freshly produced by the soft-serve machine."
Michael Stern

"The secret of Ridgefield Ice Cream Shop's goodness is in the vintage machines used to produce the ice cream. There's none richer this side of Wisconsin."
Michael Stern

"One thing we especially like about this place is that it is open year-around. Ice cream isn't only for summer any more!"
