Maureen's Ice Cream and Desserts

Maureen's was a nice coffee shop in the heart of Bethany Beach. The atmosphere was cozy with some plants to liven it up and a bar to eat at. They host coffee and ice cream, brilliantly using space for morning and later day treats. The latte didn't have an overpowering coffee flavor, but it was good. Service was good but I didn't witness anything exceptional. Lots of lifeguards were getting their coffee on the go which is always good to witness lots of local visitors. I liked it, I would return but seats are very limited. I understand space is a premium in town.

Located by the boardwalk of Bethany Beach, DE. Metered parking in the area - by CC or cash. The place is clean, with just a couple of small tables inside. Has 2 areas, cafe fare in the front, ice cream station in the back. Generous servings of ice cream - $6.50 for a small, which wasn't small at all. Enjoyed it on that warm day after coming from the beach.

Went in specifically for coffee but they were all out of coffee. Then it took all the teenage girls about 10 mins to brew a new batch of coffee as they all laughed and did other things instead of making the coffee. Then after the coffee was ready, come to find out there was no creamer or milk or anything. They were all out of that too! So for a coffee place they didn’t even have what they were selling. Oh, and it doesn’t taste that great to top it off. Do not recommend.

Went here for regular plain hot coffees on the afternoon of 10/3/25. Upon entering, the sole employee was in the sitting area talking to someone who appeared to be a friend. Ordered a large and a small but was charged for 2 larges ($9). Employee took the money, placed two cups on the counter and quickly ran back to her friend to continue their conversation. At the self serve station we discovered the creamer was empty. Returned to the counter and waited to be helped. Employee was not attentive so I had to go to the sitting area to interrupt the conversation to request creamer. She stated that there was no way it was empty and I had to show it to her to prove it. She provided creamer and immediately returned back to her friend. We poured our coffee and left location only to discover

The kids love the milkshakes (Bassetts ice cream - America’s oldest commercial maker!!)…. so do I apparently since I had 2!! 🤣
