As a big fan of ice cream, I always make it a point to stop by Vanderwendeās when I'm in Dewey Beachāand they never disappoint. Located conveniently right off Highway One, this little ice cream shop serves up some of the best farm-fresh ice cream around.
I visited on a Sunday afternoon, and to my surprise, it wasnāt very busy. I ordered my go-to flavor: Peanut Butter Fudge Crunch in a waffle cone. It was as amazing as everārich, creamy, and full of flavor.
The staff at Vanderwendeās are consistently friendly and efficient. They hustle to get everyone served quickly, which is always appreciated, especially during the busy summer months.

Highly recommend stopping in if you're...

Nothing tasted great, it was severely overpriced ($5 for a half a scoop for kids). It was to the point where I couldn't distinguish between my flavors, one being peanut butter crunch (no crunch to be seen) and one being salty caramel (no salt or caramel noted). To top it off, the gentleman serving was strange to the point of being uncomfortable and used the F word in front of children. Not into it. Done....
