Colonia Dairy Maid • 1965

Known to generations of Woodbridge Township families as '40 Flavors,' this cash-only ice cream shop has sparked a local debate over its true name since opening in 1965. Hard and soft serve scoops, Italian ices, and gelati (a signature swirl of soft serve and Italian ice) draw crowds each summer, with Black Raspberry Chip reigning as a perennial favorite. Picnic tables under shady trees turn a simple cone into a seasonal ritual that signals the start of summer.
