Today's Flavor Lineup

We churn fresh every morning, so what's available depends on the weather, the season, and whatever sounds delicious that day. Here's what's calling your name right now:

Creamy vanilla bean ice cream in a glass dish
Classic

Madagascar Vanilla

Real vanilla beans, split and scraped. Rich, warm, and the kind of vanilla that makes you close your eyes.

Bright red strawberry ice cream with fresh berries on top
Seasonal

Jersey Strawberry

Fresh Jersey strawberries, crushed into a sweet-tart base. Picked at peak and churned the same day.

Dark chocolate ice cream with a glossy swirl
Rich

Dark Chocolate Fudge

70% cocoa, double-churned for density. Fudgy, intense, and somehow still scoopable.

Tropical mango ice cream with a vibrant yellow color
Tropical

Mango Passion

Alphonso mangoes and a whisper of passion fruit. Bright, sunny, and completely dairy-free.

Mint chocolate chip ice cream with visible chocolate chips
Fan Favorite

Garden Mint Chip

Fresh mint from the garden, steeped into cream, with hand-chopped dark chocolate ribbons.

Coffee ice cream with a smooth brown swirl
Adults Only

Cold Brew Coffee

Our Story

We Started With a Pot, a Freezer, and a Lot of Taste-Testing

Starkey's wasn't born in a boardroom. It started the way the best things do — with someone who couldn't find good ice cream anywhere nearby, so they decided to make it themselves.

Every batch is hand-churned in small quantities right here in Rehoboth Beach. We source local cream, whole milk from nearby farms, and fruit from growers who actually know our name. If a flavor doesn't make us excited, it doesn't make the menu.

We're not a chain. We're not outsourcing to a factory. When you walk into Starkey's, the person scooping your cone probably made that batch this morning. That's the difference.
