Vanderwendes

Delicious ice cream! Cones, cups, sundaes, milkshakes, floats, and even a sundae for dogs. I don’t own a dog so can’t speak to that, but they are pet-​friendly I suppose! Portions are extremely generous. We stopped in after a day at the beach. Definitely hit the spot.

Being that it was my family’s first time in Dewey, I have no idea when Vanderwendes opened — but considering I’m the first to review, it must have been during the summer of 2015.
With a line out the door, we realized we were in the right place. I ordered «one» scoop of the Peanut Butter Fudge Chunk. The «one» scoop was HUGE. Huge, huge, huge portions all around. The ice cream itself was great — a little different than what I thought, but really delicious nonetheless. A creamy peanut butter base, with chunks of chocolate/​fudge throughout.
One main reason I’m giving this place 5 stars is to give special mention to the crew of girls behind the counter. They kept the line moving, had an organized system of ordering/​scooping, and did not seem fazed at all by the growing crowd of hunger customers. Having scooped ice cream for a summer or two before, I was impressed by their calmness and ability to keep everyone happy and with ice cream in hand, as quickly as possible. Many of the girls had clearly been working for hours, if not all day, but were still happy to be scooping.
