Ziggy’s

Pretty small and busy place, but seemed pricey.
I got a small kids cone and a large waffle cone and it cost $ 12.
Other than that it’s perfectly located, right across a great waking path and benches where you can sit and enjoy the view of the wharf!

Ex. Pen. Sive. — You hit a little walk-​up stand figuring it will be a few bucks saved from a sit-​down restaurant, but dang! A teeny garden salad, small sandwich no sides, fish and chips, and a 3pc chix finger was $ 45! Overpriced for the VERY basic food.
Service was just a walk-​up counter manned by mostly annoyed teens, but I don’t expect much more than that for seasonal stands these days.
On the main road overlooking Plymouth Harbor, this is admittedly a bit of a tourist trap. The food is nothing special but adequate if you are starving and don’t mind paying Rockefeller prices for a mom and pop dish.
Plenty of other choices abound. Do your Unilocalwork first so you do not get stuck in the optionless position we were in to purchase food from here.

If you want ice cream soup, go to Ziggy’s. If you want ice cream, go anywhere else. I threw away a soft serve cone after 2 bites because it was already half melted as it was handed to me. I mistakenly went back and ordered a «hard» vanilla cone, which turned out to be as soft as a soft serve. I should’ve asked for my $$$ back. My mistake. I wouldn’t recommend Ziggy’s and I certainly wouldn’t go back.

So many choices it was hard to decide what to go with. Everything we got was delicious! Beautiful view and location with a friendly staff.

Love their ice cream. It is a super busy place in the summer, but the staff is great.

Ziggy’s is a great little de cream place.
Lots of flavors and the portions were very nice. My sundae was actually too big to finish.
There is a nice seating area in the back. Don’t miss it

Ziggy’s had the best selection of flavors, awesome fun cones (Nolan had cookie dough cone), friendly service and plenty of seating (in front and in back). Will be our go to ice cream and snack bar in Plymouth.

Just ten years ago, the ice cream options in downtown Plymouth were huge. There was the Friendly’s across from the IGA on Sandwich St, the great Duxbury ice cream stand Farfar’s had a location on Court St., Peaceful Meadows was the next building over on Water St, and then you had Ziggy’s.
It’s been an area institution since the 1960s, and it used to be great, but it’s slipped a bit. Part of it was when they went upmarket and «prettified,» with a polished corporate interior and seating space (it was strictly take-​out, in the old days). The prices jacked up to match the tourists’ wallets, they started to serve other foods (mediocre in quality), and the ice cream wasn’t as good as it once was. As others have mentioned, it’s a seasonal joint, but then again it always was.
It’s really the only option left right on the waterfront (PM moving to Village Landing, and Friendly’s and Farfar’s closing), but I’d like the 1970s-​80s Ziggy’s back, please.

Ice cream was pretty good. They had coffee Oreo which is hard to find, but my favorite. The girl was very nice & more polite than Most kids her age. But the prices were ridiculous. A large & a small ice cream $ 9.37? Or something like that. Seemed a bit overpriced.

They don’t accept cash… which is BS in 2014 for such a tourist spot. I mean, come on!

The Richardson’s ice cream they serve here is marked up well over what Richardson’s on the North Shore charges and sadly, the ice cream tastes like the refrigerator. The soft serve is ok but not so much if you get it with a flavoring added. The cookie cone probably cost extra and tasted like chemicals. $ 9.99 for two small ice creams — completely not worth it.

We just had ice cream, which was good, but the food smelled great, the staff was nice and the sitting area in the back was great for the kids, away from the road and super clean. Will definitely visit here again.

I would love to go back for seconds… yum!

My in laws and I go here quite frequently in the summer months and I thought it was time to write a review. We really like this place. I just have a couple small complaints.
— Expensive — 7 bucks for two small ice creams is ridiculous, no matter what extras are on them.
— Post your prices outside by the walk up window and not just inside, so I don’t end up being a complete jerk when I don’t have enough cash and have to beg people for extra money to cover the bill.
Otherwise your choices are yummy and service is fast!

I’ve lived in Atlanta, LA and NYC and no one does a vanilla & chocolate twist in a waffle cone topped with rainbow jimmies as good as Ziggy’s. Period.

Well, the place is crowded all the time. The ice cream’s not cheap. And it’s not bad, but err, when I order chocolate-​peanut-​butter, I should get more than one bite of peanut butter in my entire bleeding scoop of ice cream. I may’s well have got plain ol’ chocolate.
One good thing about it, though, is that even though it seems pricey, one scoop is actually a HUGE portion, so you’re not getting shafted, for sure. Unless you wanted peanut butter in your chocolate-​peanut-​butter… Okay, I’ll shut up.
This place is not bad, but could definitely improve.

Went here last Saturday night. It wasn’t busy but then again it was around 8:30.
There was a group of 4 of us and we went to the outside window. I had an intense craving for Moose Tracks ice cream, so I got a small cone of that with black jimmies. Someone else in the group got the same but in a cup and the others got mint choc chip and black raspberry.
The moose tracks had little to nothing in it. It was just like eating plain vanilla ice cream and not good at all. The jimmies tasted old and moldy. The other person who got the MT thought the same thing. The only one who liked theirs was the mint choc chip. So ¾ of us weren’t happy with our orders whatsoever. I think Ziggy’s is still decent but definitely stick to the soft serve.

Good for soft-​serve, sure. That’s not hard, and the pretty, flirtatious teeenge girls working the counters (and being undressed in the imaginations of the teenage boys who wander in and out of the store) are certainly up to the task. The menu at Ziggy’s, however, involves a host of grill items that the girls just can’t manage. Order a hamburger or corn dog and watch them wince. One will bravely try to work the grill or fryer while the others linger at the counter, casting backward glances of sympathy and curiosity, but nonetheless resolutely unwilling to help the situation.
The ice cream is good — but its the only soft-​serve on Water St, so they kind of have the market cornered and really don’t have to try hard. There are dozens of other places serving grill items nearby and the staff are simply not motivated to compete with their neighbors. A pity, because it wold be nice to have it all in one place.

The best in Plymouth.
Cash Only, but so are many ice cream shops, ya know?
Convenient to Plymouth’s water front, this is where memories are made. =)
Great selection, line moves fast.

Oh Ziggy’s. Your chocolate/​vanilla swirl soft serve dipped in cherry hard shell dip thing makes me feel like a kid again. Yes, this is mainly because when the cherry hard shell dip thing breaks, it causes the ice cream to drip and melt all over my chin and hands, but it’s worth it. Sometimes when I don’t want to be all nostalgically messy, I’ll get a dainty cup of your hard packed ice cream, and like the lady I am, slurp all that peppermint patty (studded with junior mints!) up.
Feeling a little anti-​dairy? Slushes in every flavor imaginable will help you out. Feeling a little indulgent? Load up on one of their sundaes. Or go crazy and order a banana split. The kid in me is giddy with excitement.
