Perfect after dinner tradition, time the line and enjoy a scoop of deliciousness. Fun experience – the wait, the flavor options, the very hard working servers!

Great spot on LBI. Near the lighthouse so stop here first or second. Plenty of seating and great choices. They have the Jersey Shore flavor and it is amazing!

Good ice cream, and they have malt. They also have a good selection of toppings including chopped Reece’s Pieces peanut butter cups.

Delicious Ice cream with creative flavors! Definitely one of our favorite places to go when we are near Barnegate Light . Staff was friendly and the line moved quick. And there is both indoor seating and outdoor seating . Although, I wish the portions were a little larger. This was 2 scoops 🙁 not quite the same value as others in the area. But it had great flavor

The waffle bowls are so good.
Tried the cinnamon churro and it was excellent. Also had the nutter butter which was a win. Great little spot that serves fun flavors of hard ice cream

Poppy’s Ice Cream in Barnegat Light is absolutely worth the wait. Yes, there’s usually a line (especially after dinner), but it moves steadily and the ice cream is always worth it. It’s a fun, classic summer stop that feels like part of the LBI experience.
My go-to is the Chocolate Thunder—it’s rich, chocolatey, and packed with flavor. If you’re a chocolate fan, don’t skip it. The portions are generous, and they have a great mix of classic and creative flavors, so there’s something for everyone. You can get cups, cones, sundaes, and even dairy-free options.
Staff is friendly and fast, even when it’s busy. There’s a nice little outdoor area where you can sit and enjoy your ice cream. It’s a great spot to end the night if you’re in Barnegat Light or nearby.
Pro tip: bring cash just in case, and be ready for a short wait—but you’ll be glad you stuck it out.

SOO GOOD. Love love love their unique flavors, especially the caramel pretzel and blueberry pie. They switch off their flavors a lot but the quality is always really good
Definitely the best Ice cream on LBI. When you order, make sure to have your group order from the same scooper!

Incredible ice cream! Both my partner and I went back for more (we each had 3-4 scoops!). Very creamy. Loved the Blueberry Pie, Birthday Cake, and Jersey Shore. Very social distancing friendly, and tables outside. Also it is no longer Cash Only, just FYI! Very friendly service. My partner dropped his whipped cream by accident and they replaced it no questions asked.
