Used to date someone who lived in South Plainfield, NJ. It was about an hour drive from me and honestly, I wasn't really all that into her. Nevertheless, I made the journey religiously and, looking back on it, I think the main reason may have been that there was a Rita's around the corner from her house. Used to stop on the way there for a Gelati and would grab a Misto Shake for the ride home.
Before Rita's opened in Glen Rock, we used to make the trek to Pompton Lakes, a good 1/2 hour drive. Might sound like a schlep just to get a Misto Shake or a Gelati but that would be to someone who never had a Misto Shake or a Gelati. To me it was well worth the drive.
I love Rita's. Always have, always will. I was so thrilled when they came to town that my kids and I left a note on the door during construction telling them to hurry it up. Since then we have been there literally hundreds of times. Flavors come and go but they're always fresh and always delicious. Hell, it just started snowing and I took a drive over for a quick snack. LOVE Rita's!
Love this Rita's location! Great flavor selection, plenty of parking, friendly and helpful staff, and some benches in case you want to enjoy your ice or custard outside. My friends and I have been coming to this location for years and we've never been disappointed. This is my go-to spot for Italian ice!
