What customers say?

“ Duck Island Ice Cream is always a spot I genuinely look forward to visiting. They consistently deliver on creativity, with unique flavour combinations that somehow still feel familiar and comforting. This visit was no exception. I tried the apple pie, pistachio, and caramel, and all three absolutely hit the spot. The apple pie was warm and nostalgic in flavour, the pistachio tasted rich and authentic, and the caramel was smooth and perfectly balanced without being overly sweet. What really sets Duck Island apart is the quality—you can tell real care goes into how each flavour is made. Nothing tastes artificial or rushed. The gelato is creamy, well-textured, and full of depth, making it hard to choose just one scoop. Service was fast and friendly, even with a steady flow of customers, which made the experience even better. It’s the kind of place that never disappoints and always leaves you wanting to come back to try something new. If you’re after ice cream that’s a little different but consistently excellent, Duck Island is always a winning choice. ”

“ Probably the best ice cream I have ever had in my life, and I love ice cream. We have been here multiple times and always end up ordering an extra cone for 50c because one order is easily good for two people. Consistently amazing flavours and generous servings. Five stars baby. ”

“ Best ice cream I have ever had. The vegan/gluten free options are abundant for those who desire or require such options. The take away ice cream sammiches are dangerously good. Have been here twice a day since I found it and will until we leave the NZ. ”

“ The best ice cream ever! The flavors are absolutely amazing, calling it addictive would be an understatement. I personally love the white chocolate pomegranate macadamia! On top of that, the staff are friendly. ”

“ Plenty of flavours to choose from and the ice cream was absolutely delicious. We visited on a Wednesday evening and there was still a queue outside, which says a lot! A busy and popular place Definitely worth the wait. ”

“ I get told by a employee that this product ran out and they're not getting any more. Then the next day there was a new batch. Either communication breakdown or she really doesn't care about her job. - BROKE BOY X Duck Island taco collab 8.1/10 For $11 its pretty small, definitely a one off purchase. The sauce is like a mousse, that compliment the taco nicely. Chilli chocolate ice cream was solid, you definitely feel a mild heat. Ths salt on the hardened chocolate is a nice touch, really can't describe what the small green crystals are, but its nice. The actual waffle taste a bit like gingerbread. Overall this product is wild, just need to be alot bigger for $11. ”
