Very disappointed.
Got a scoop of the blueberry cheesecake and it was soft and icy as if it was melted and refrozen again. So sad.
Also, the sign outside advertised McConnell’s…I don’t think so.

Really fun selection of ice cream with a taco stand built in.
The sundaes weren’t available when we went so I had a waffle cone with toppings in a cup — spoiler: DELISH! But also the waffle cone was a bit fall-​y-​apart-​y.
Definitely a nice spot to grab a cool treat and stroll the downtown.

Eh! I was expecting a great tasting strawberry cheesecake ice cream– it tasted like syrupy strawberry swirled in vanilla ice cream. Where are the chunks of cheesecake? It was $ 3.25 for a small cup. We will probably stop here again since we have a little one who goes insane at the mention of ice cream but I’ll just take a few licks from my kids cone.

Lemon meringue, maui wowi and butter pecan are our personal favorites! The owner and staff are absolutely wonderful. So kind to my kids every time. We come here often!

They understand customer service! They made us feel right at home. The place has been open for 25 years and told us a little about the history of the place. I like going to places like this and learning about the people and business. Make sure to go out of your way to stop here!

Everything I expected from a beach front ice cream shop! Over priced but delicious with several great flavors to choose from.
It does share a space with the taco location which was weird, but the gal behind the counter was sweet which you all know I enjoy the good customer service!

All I can say is wow. I went to the avocado two weeks ago and feel in love with their avocado ice cream. Definitely go to this ice cream parlor if you are in the mood for a sweet treat.

weirdest combo ice cream place ever. Ice cream is eh, yum yum yogurt is way better and it is just down the road. Also, foster freeze has good ice cream. Friendly staff and it is located right downtown in the heart of Linden Ave.

I really like the ice cream and the people own rainbows are always very nice but I do understand where people are coming from with the negative reviews. I love most of their flavors but the cotton candy is pretty flavorless. The portion of ice cream is pretty small for the price. Rainbow is a place that I would go to again and again.

I thought it was overpriced for such a small serving size.
Tacos Don Roge shares the same suite as Rainbow Ice Cream, so you can order tacos and then ice cream if you so desire.
CASH ONLY.

Overpriced and small servings. Why serve ice cream if you don’t want to make people happy. Bull shit.

Great mom and pop owned Ice cream shop in Carp!
And they serve McConills and Buds too! Large selection and never a huge wait, Just wish they were given a better review, people support your local business and have a nice cold ice cream and enjoy it on a nice walk at Carp state beach!
They only take cash so make sure you go to the atm first.
I love this place and will be back!
