18 Best Ice Cream Shops in Anchorage

“Wild Scoops is our go-to ice cream spot. Their waffle cones are hands-down the best I’ve ever had—not just in Alaska, but in the lower 48. Fresh, crisp, and flavorful.

The ice cream is just as good. The vanilla bean is rich, creamy, and smooth, and the scoop sizes are generous, which makes it even better.

The shop itself is cozy and welcoming, with local artists’ artwork on the walls and merchandise on the other side, giving it a great community, Alaska-local vibe.

If you’re looking for excellent ice cream, top-tier waffle cones, and a place that supports local artists, Wild Scoops never disappoints.“

“I love WooHoo! I carry their ice cream in my store and they’ve ruined me for other ice cream. 😄 It’s the honey!! 🐝 They are so easy to work with as a business and they are so kind.“

“Hands down the best ice cream I have ever had, and I have had a LOT of ice cream in my years. Just finished my second cookies and cream this week …. And it’s only Wednesday. Delicious. Fast. Friendly. Yummm. 😋“

“We recently attended paint night at this adorable ice cream shop, and it was absolutely amazing. The atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and beautifully decorated they really went all out to make it feel special. The balloon display and themed setup made it perfect for photos and added such a fun, festive touch. The paint night itself was fantastic. The instructions were easy to follow, making it enjoyable for both kids and adults. It was so much fun creating our own artwork while enjoying delicious ice cream. The staff was friendly, patient, and encouraging, making everyone feel comfortable and creative. And of course, the food was incredible flavorful, and the perfect treat while painting! 🍦 If you’re looking for a fun family activity, girls’ night out, or a creative date idea, I highly recommend their paint night. We’ll definitely be back! 💕“

“The best yogurt, boba shoppe in town! Their service, flavors, boba, and price is outstanding! They offer samples of the soft serve if you’re unsure what to pick. If you’re looking for a wide variety of delicious flavors this the place! Honestly if you think this place is bland then stick with Baskin Robbins where you’d still be unsatisfied.“

“Best yogurt in town! Great selection of yogurt and toppings!“

“It’s so Beary cool I’m not just saying that because I work there lol we are amazing 🤩“

“Great Ice Cream, great service, great people!“

“The only haagen dazs location for actual sitdown icecream parlor in anchorage. The shop is cute and clean. Lots of flavors including shop exclusive flavors. At the time of our visit, staff were in the low energy mode. I like that it opens till lates.“

“Today was our first time at the Spenard location since the Huffman store was closed for renovation. First off, the place was super clean. Secondly, Luke was very welcoming and gave us great customer service with a smile which is rare these days. Thanks so much Luke!“

“My daughter and I stopped here on a whim and were pleasantly surprised at home yummy it was. She got the chocolate soft serve and I got the chocolate/strawberry swirl in the takiyaki cone. The ice cream was very smooth and creamy. The cone was crunchy and soft at the same time. Tasted extra yummy with the nutella filling!“

“Awesome Delicious Treat!!“

“My favorite thing about this place is that you can order any creation they have and make it into a shake. Like they have the surrender to strawberry and it has yellow cake strawberries and something else I can't remember and it's in a cone or cup but I have it in shake form. The best ever! Lil pricey though. Large shake is almost $10.😬“

“So good I would eat these cookies every day if I could“

“Very allergy aware, was pleased at the care they took with our orders.“

“There business model is pretty fun every week on monday they have a new assortment of cookies you csn gonthoigh and pick out. Then vote on your fav's. And i gave them a four because theres only 2 down sides the price is a little steep BUT when they say large cookies they aren't exaggerating most of the time i cant finish a cookie in one sitting they are sooo good though so theyre worth it. Plus tbey deliver. The other one is that they change the menu every week so say your craving a certain cookie you cant go and get it anytime you want it all depends on the list of options that week. And if your not fond of anything that week you kinda you gotta wait till.next week. And you never know when theyll put out. Your favorite cookie. They should make s little side list of certain favs that you can order whenever. Other than that cookies and little cakes they have are soo good and worth it. Plus they deliver! Yum!“

“Had a great time a lot to choose from everything was good“
