The friendly, smiling longtime employees of Sunny Daes are as welcoming and bright as is their eye-catching, hot pink and teal-trimmed building, calling for hungry and hot ice cream lovers. The little joint is a true neighborhood hangout in every sense, and has offered locals tasty treats summer after summer. It offers simple ice cream, without the overwhelming confusion of picking mix-ins or trying to figure out just what a “love it” size means. Best of all, it’s conveniently located right near Cummings Park so you can grab a cool, refreshing pick-me-up after a day at the beach or during halftime at your kid’s soccer game.

The Shippan hotspot is loved for its generous sizes, reasonable prices, and the extra toppings employees kindly dish out, knowing that you really do want that extra whipped cream. Favorites include moosetracks, brownie fudge, mint chocolate chip, and cookie dough ice creams, watermelon ice, Oreo hurricanes, hot fudge and pecan parfaits, banana splits (what kind of ice cream place wouldn’t excel at this staple?), and mini (or you could go with a not-so-mini size) hot fudge sundae. The guys who run Sunny Daes have always taken the time to remember regulars’ usual orders, making them feel right at home. Leave a tip and they promise not to sing.
