Sometimes the whole reason I go to the beach - Edit
The best and I mean the BEST vegan ice cream. Hard to choose the best flavor because there are so many (half the menu is vegan) and they are all so good. Never had anything there I didn't like.

Tasty and Creamy - Edit
We’ve been here a few times and their ice cream does not disappoint. The ice cream is creamy and delicious. The menu clearly marks the vegan ice cream and toppings. And they are clear about what they use as a base for the ice cream. Last time I had the PB crunch which used peanut butter as the base and was so delicious.

Delicious Vegan Ice Cream - Edit
Although Cookman creamery is not exclusively vegan, they have so many vegan options. It makes it hard to choose from. They let you sample any flavors you’d like though. We visit there every time we are in Asbury Park. They even have vegan ice cream cakes!

Best vegan ice cream selection ever? - Edit
Cookman Creamery is not an exclusively vegan ice cream shop but the selection of vegan flavors rivals the dairy ones, in addition to a selection of ice cream sandwiches and order frozen treats. We had our choice of more than a dozen concoctions like: apple cider donut, horchata, creamsicle, sweet corn, trail mix, and blueberry pancake. They all taste just like their names because Cookman uses real pieces of the ingredients to create flavor. For instance, the blueberry pancake has actual pieces of blueberry pancake and syrup throughout. It was great to the last drop!

Really bad ice cream! - Edit
The worst vegan ice cream I’ve ever had. It lacks that fatty texture/flavor and the sweetness tastes artificial. However, I applaud them for having so many vegan options and letting people try the ice cream before buying. The cones are supposedly vegan, so that’s great.

So many vegan flavors in their own separate case. Salted chocolate almond is seriously to die for.

Vegan Ice Cream of My Dreams 😍 - Edit
Perfect place to stop by on your beach day! They have almost as many vegan options as they do dairy options, and they're super unique with the flavors, like strawberry balsamic and blueberry lavender. It's also in a super adorable location, so you can stroll around and check out the shops while you enjoy your cup or cone!

Choices Galore! - Edit
There were so many flavors (many vegan) and I was very happy!! I saw the reviews here on HappyCow before we went, so I thought I knew what to expect, but the options were still shocking — in a good way 😁!!!

The Most Vegan Options - Edit
I’ve never seen so many vegan ice cream options at one creamery - I’m used to just a sad sorbet in the corner, but they had at least 8 options I believe. I went with the Oreo mint chip. Delicious!

Great ice cream but missing some things... - Edit
I have been going here for many years and they used to have the best vegan soft serve ice cream, not anymore. They also used to have the best vegan soft serve ice cream cake they need to bring that old recipe back. I do love their milkshakes and hard ice cream!

Innovative and delicious - Edit
Cookman creamery’s vegan menu offers equal parts tried-and-true favorites (which alternate seasonally), as well as some experimental offerings (I believe one flavor incorporated seaweed, surprisingly really good!)—and even some offerings with medicinal properties! My all-time favorite flavor is probably blueberry pancake
Read morePros: Wide array of vegan options , Constantly alternating and inspired menu , Friendly staff

Delicious - Edit
Lots of vegan options. My advise stay away from the cone as the ice cream melt very fast. All the drippings and leakings are definitely not fun to deal with. But they're really tasty.

My Happy Place - Edit
Literally don’t think I can even come up with a bad thing to say about this place. They have an extensive variety of vegan flavors, and rotate in seasonal flavors as well. It’s easily some of the best vegan ice cream I’ve ever had, and you can’t beat the price. The decor is so pretty, and it’s in a great location with outdoor seating. 110% recommend!!

The amount of vegan options is awesome!! - Edit
There were about four to five flavors of vegan soft serve, and sooooo many scooped vegan options. I tried 3 different flavors, all were delicious. They had a tasty banana soft serve that my non veg friend chose and loved! The key lime pie was a perfect balance of tart and sweet with graham cracker crumble in it and I settled for being a basic boring ice cream eater .... I went with a vanilla soft serve in a cone with sprinkles. I was very happy with my choice and will definitely be back next time we visit Asbury Park. They also added vegan waffles to their menu of options.
