Bonkey's Ice Cream & Snoballs

Hands down the best homemade ice cream in the Bethany area! The owners are so friendly and the staff is always nice. There are a lot of affordable options and variety for kids. I love trying new flavors, but my favorite is toasted coconut. No toasted coconut? A classic peanut butter milkshake is the go to. And on the hottest days? A snoball is the most refreshing treat!!
As a DE local, I've tried a lot of ice cream up and down the shoreline, but Bonkey's can't be beat 😉
I love that Bonkey's is family owned and operated, they bring so much to our community 🤍 🌊

My family has tried almost every ice cream parlor in the Bethany Beach area and Bonkey's Best is the best. The ice cream itself is amazing, and the service is always fast even when they have a long line.

Only thing that takes this location off of perfect are the mosquitos in the evening, we always get eaten alive if we linger.

Bonkey's was delicious, the 3 flavors my wife and I tried were dirty, cotton candy, and a pineapple mango flavor. They were all delicious. The atmosphere of this ice cream "shack" near the woods was fun and calmer than if you get ice cream in a busier part of town. There were benches to sit on and eat, and ample shade.

My only complaint for Bonkey's was the service. The staff wasn't rude, but they weren't very friendly either. We went in the middle of the day, we were the only two people there, my wife is extremely indecisive and normally gets samples. However, the worker unapologetically informed us they don't do samples. Which I thought was silly, especially since there was no one else there, not like we were holding up a line.
