I love Verona, there’s nothing like a rocky road ice cream in a waffle cone or a banana split in the oppressive, sweltering, sticky heat of a Jersey summer. My mother has gone to Verona since she was a child, and we ALWAYS visit Verona on our summer trips. The staff is always friendly, and the owner is a great person. The last time we were there, we purchased Verona shirts to take home a bit of the Custard magic back to the west coast. I hope they stay open forever, Verona’s a gem!

I wax nostalgic for the days when Verona was a custard stand and a restaurant. It was one of the best family run restaurants in the area. They had nice homemade treats like apple dumplings and nummy soups. But for some reason, they closed the restaurant. Eek! Alas, the Verona leased what used to be the restaurant to a(really good) hair salon of all things… ice-cream and permanent solution just don’t mix! Since Verona sits on the phenominally busy and dangerous Delsea Drive, I don’t feel to keen about sitting in their unfenced seating area with the kids to enjoy frozen custard on a hot day. They’ve got a good selection, but I’d never be able to relax and enjoy my ice-cream because I’d be worrying whether my 3 year old was going to make a dash for the road or not. It was a good location for a restaurant, but not for a custard stand. Bad move Verona! I miss you, but I won’t be back.
