We enjoy coming home here. However, it seems like the machines are not maintained very well. A lot of the pinball games either stick are tilted flippers not working. Even the air hockey needs attention

Had ice cream with a waffle cone, which was $2.00 extra. It was like trying to eat cardboard and that's not an exaggeration. Wound up throwing half of it away.

Friendly staff and yummy ice cream! They also serve delicious freshly made lemonade that was great! Has some bar stools to sit by the counter and it is right next door to Jilly's Arcade.

We vacation yearly at the same spot, right behind the 12th street boardwalk entrance. Jilly's ice cream is awesome, I especially enjoy the peanut butter vanilla sundae and my teenage son loves their candy cake milkshakes. Under $20 for two people who are definitely going back next year.

Visited with the grandkids a few times this week while playing in the arcade. The staff and ice cream were all wonderful. The kids loved sitting at the side counter and watching the staff prepare all the sundaes. We will be back

Jilly's ice cream is our first stop when our family hits the boards.The staff is super friendly and helpful. Thank you Jilly's for always bringing joy to our family, year after year. We love OCNJ!

Unfortunately the ice cream we bought was absolutely terrible and the waffle cone was so stale and hard as a rock I almost broke my tooth on. I should’ve just thrown my money in the ocean. Next time it’s Ben & Jerry’s for sure

Been going here since I was a child, I recognize the one employee every summer, she's been there since 1999. Great mix of pinball, classic and new video games, skee ball, they even have a pool table. I usually stick to pinball and the classic video games, Galaga and Pac-Man, but my most recent visit I spent most of my time playing Mario Kart with a party of 4. It really is fun playing against your friends. This is the best arcade on the boardwalk IMO, best location too right near the surf mall, primavera pizza, manco and manco pizza, and a Kohr's brothers. Open late and open early, stop in to get out of the heat. Ready player one!

Wonderful ice cream spot. Right on the boardwalk. Good choices - both soft-serve and regular. Would go again!

I went to this arcade countless times as a kid. I was visiting Ocean City with my kids this year and brought them to Jilly's today due to my fond memories. Unfortunately, the first and only 3 games we played all malfunctioned. First, we dropped ~$10 into Halo before the machine crashed on the final mission. It happens, not a big deal. Then we tried the mechanical ice hockey game. Took my money, but didn't actually start. I'm thinking, "Ok, two bad games - just a coincidence, right?" Then we last went to air hockey. The machine wasn't adding one side's goals to the score. I went up to the change booth to let them know - I didn't even ask or want a refund. I just wanted to make sure other people didn't have the same problem. The woman in the booth started arguing with me that the game wasn't broken, without even leaving the booth. So so disappointed. You know the old saying: one time, an accident. Two times, a coincidence. Three times, a pattern. There's not many alternatives for arcade games in OC anymore, but I can't see myself going back here to get ripped off more with a bit of attitude on top of it. EDIT: So I had some money left on the game card, and my daughter really wanted to return, so we did once more. I kid you not, the very first game we played during this additional visit (Skeeball) also ate our money. [smh]

We were excited to try Jilly’s as her businesses take up much of the boardwalk. I was disappointed when we got to the counter and the two ladies were too preoccupied with one another and their day to day drama to even greet us. The ice cream is basic (soft serve- vanilla/chocolate/twist & a couple of dole flavors) & they charge you $5.00 for a SMALL sugar cone. The staff doesn’t wear gloves and I personally asked one girl who made our cones to wash her hands. She had a bit of an attitude about doing so but did end up washing them prior to making our order. Many other ice cream places on the boardwalk, I’d say give one of those a try.They do offer “handmade ice cream,” but it looked a bit concerning.

This arcade is so much fun and the prices seem good too. You can still play a game of skeeball for 10 cents, or if you play 11 games, it's only $1. For only a few bucks, you could stay occupied for quite awhile. Also, if you reach a certain score, you win a free game of skeeball. There's lots of other games like air hockey, pac man, driving games, fruit ninja, shooting games, etc. I Always make some good memories at Jilly's!

Been playing pinball here from the tune it was called Coaches Casino. This place is jam packed with games; skewball, video, hoops, air hockey, dome hockey and my fav, pinball. Still three balls for a quarter and a great mix of old school and current day machines. All are kept in excellent working condition! This is a great place for families, a party and young and old pin ballers. Plenty of hand sanitizer stations.
