Best Boardwalk Ice Cream and Boardwalk Fries

If you’re visiting the Delaware beaches for the summer and want to head to the boardwalk for a treat, there are tons of options. Two of the best parts about going to the beach are the fries and soft-serve ice cream you had as a kid. Here are the best places to get your fix.

Thrashers French Fries

Thrashers’, opened in 1929, fries have been voted the best boardwalk fries several times, and it’s not hard to see why. These thick-cut fries are fried to perfection and are the epitome of what a boardwalk fry is meant to be. Douse them with vinegar and carry our overflowing bucket of fries to the beach. They have a location in Rehoboth Beach, but the main locations are in Ocean City, Md.

Dickey’s Frozen Custard

Dickey’s, in Bethany Beach, always has lines out the door in both of its locations — only a block away from each other. Dickey’s created loyal customers throughout the years with its creamy and classic soft-serve custard. A chocolate and vanilla swirl with rainbow jimmies is sure to hit the spot.
