Awesome little ice cream shop with a great variety of both hard and soft serve flavors. Also numerous specialty sundaes. Prices are very reasonable and portions comparable to other places. They also have a large food menu (burgers, chicken tenders, fries, etc ), but didn't have the opportunity to try any.

A delicious and varied menu of food and ice cream. The fried shrimp were tasty.

We used to love it here, specifically their sundaes! Pre pandemic they were huge, we loved getting them and sharing with a few people. We loved that they always came LOADED with toppings. Recently we went back again, and not only had they increased a few dollars in price, they shrunk in size. Our sundae had hardly any toppings on it, and the whipped cream was oily and fake tasting. Totally understand that supply costs have gone up, and that's fine, but it sucks that the quality has gone down in addition to that. We said we won't be returning.

Every time we go to get ice cream, there is a line, wait. Because if you don't you will be missing out on really good quality product. The food is also amazing. Prices are good and portions large.

First visit of the season. Hot dogs and sandwiches were tasty. The Moosetracks Monster sundae and the cappuccino crunch ice cream were very good.

So happy to have found this place! My 9yr old LOVED it. Good choice of unique flavors (we had llamaliscious, mermaid and superman), generous sizes and very affordable. Quality and taste is also two thumbs up.

The selection of hard ice cream was great. The best soft serve ever.

*************WARNING: In June of 2022, I ate at Nicky Doodles located in New Hartford, NY.The workers handle the money, food containers, cook and serve the food with NO gloves being worn! There are 2 young women and the manager, a male, whom work here and all follow the same procedures as mentioned above. This is very SCARY!The food containers are kept at the register and the workers use a marker INSIDE of the containers to identify the item ordered and then pass it onto the person cooking the food; no one is washing their hands and creating cross contamination in A HUGE way!!!With no wax paper liners being used, all food is then placed into these containers and that have been cross ontaminated; after eating a meal, at 1 pm, I was VIOLENTLY sick with fecal contaminated food poisoning by 6 am the following morning. I'm a healthy, younger adult and could not keep even clear liquids down for more than 30 hours; I was on the verge of being hospitalized for severe dehydration.This is VERY scary, because if I wasn't a healthy adult OR was a more susceptible juvenile or elderly person, it could have very well ended in serious health complications, including death.I've had food poisoning once before, in my life, and stomach cramping was the typical symptoms. This time, I felt intense and constant stabbing abdominal pain, body aches, chills, muscle cramping, complete fatigue and overall pain in every part of my body except my nose and throat.The Health Department was contacted, especially after the General Manager was not able to produce a current Heath Inspection Certificate.*************UPDATE (6/26/2022):Dear Owner, This is in response to the reply you posted and below... I had ate chicken tenders, onion rings and ice cream at your establishment and on the date I last dined in. I do know I ate nothing before or after on this day and with deductive reasoning, YES I did become extremely ill and after eating this meal at your establishment.At the very least and since I paid with a credit card, I would appreciate a full refund of this $20.00 meal; as your business record will show, I have patronized your business at least 10 times and during the 2022 season opening. I really did love eating here, but after becoming violently sick and being an extremely healthy adult, with not having been sick with even a virus in 10 years, I unfortunately will no longer choose to.I am sure the ice cream would be safe, as I ate it solo many times and had no ill feelings, afterward.Other and similar seasonal establishments, that have been in business for 60+ years, do use: 1.) Food Safety Gloves, 2.) Hairnets, 3.) Food service containers that are BOTH stored next to where the food is prepared and handled, by the gloved employees ONLY preparing the food., 4.) Counter employees are ONLY taking orders, handling payments and serving drinks; they are NOT handling the food containers (inside particularly) with their ungloved or non-sterile hands.Respectfully yours.

We hit up Nicky Doodles about once every other week in the spring and summer. Meet the grandparents and other family and friends. The ice cream is very good and the service is quick. They started serving regular food as well this year. Can't go wrong.

No longer called Nicky Doodles, now it's Sloppy Joe's Pizza. The couple who own it are awesome, and we had cheeseburgers and fries. It was perfect for a dreary day, food was delicious, prices were very fair, and conversation was fantastic!

Girl was playing with her hair inside the building then waited on a customer without washing her hands. We didn't stay for dessert after the way my friends pulled pork came out hardly any meat and drenched in lime a honey mustard sauce she couldn't even eat it and the Mac salad totally dry.

I went to the New Hartford location and ordered two ice creams. My boyfriend accidentally said soft and wanted to change it to hard. The girl was nasty and rude and told us we have to pay for a new ice cream and not the difference. She said we can't waste the ice cream. I tried to explain to her it was a mistake and then asked for the money back. She refused. Is this a joke? Is this how it works at restaurants when a customer makes a mistake keep charging them? I'm very unhappy. everyone should know about how nasty and rude the workers are at your establishment. Tonight you lost a loyal customer.

Last summer, The owner accused me of ordering wrong because I was on my phone. The cashier got my order right, philly steak sandwich with hot peppers, I paid, then called me back over to the register to give me a different total. I asked her, are you sure? She said, yeah. When i got my food, it was wrong. I went back to the register and told them they got my order wrong and the owner told me it was my fault because i was on my phone. I told him his employee was right and charged me for a philly and he made her change it amd charge me for a "hot" sausage sandwich. I asked for my money back and he said no, he would give me the amount difference because I ate half the sandwich, which was a lie. I looked at it, new it was wrong and took one bite to be 100% sure it was wrong. The owner is a nasty man with a chip on his shoulder. I'll never give him my money after how he treated his employee and paying customer.Papa Ricks is a win for the whole family. Better ice cream and better prices

Sad that there's no longer a North Utica shop. My family loves Nicky Doodles! The cookie monster sundae is amazing. I love lots of gooey toppings and Nicky Doodles never disappoints.

Nicky Doodles has really gone downhill. I loved the ice cream there. It is very expensive for what you get. Very dissatisfied. Ice cream had very little flavor. Don’t waste your money.

Ordered a large vanilla shake. What i got was a large chocolate shake. Was still very lit. Better freeze time because this place is magical.

The ice-cream is the BEST. No pets allowed which I understand but pets like ice-cream to!

Good variety of custard flavors and good fast food. Tables under awning and with umbrellas. Easy to social distance.
