28 Best Ice Cream Shops in Birmingham

“Great customer service, and the ice cream is fantastic. I definitely would recommend!“

“Great place to do Pilates 💛“

“All the ice cream flavors are awesome!!! The location is in a great spot downtown and the customer service is A+. I definitely recommend!“

“I was craving some good chicken tenders and coleslaw. I remembered seeing this place and wanted to try it out. 10/10 in my opinion. The chicken tenders are so tasty and the sauces are all great. We tried bbq sauce, honey mustard and ranch. We also had the fries which were amazing! We will definitely be back to try other things on the menu and to try some of the custard. The price for 7 tenders, regular fry, coleslaw and 2 extra sauces came out to a little over 20 bucks.“

“I’ve always had a great experience at this location! The young ladies that work in the afternoon are always kind and welcoming and they always have a smile on their faces! The dessert options that I personally come for are always in stock and they are consistently delicious. I will drive out of my way to get my desserts from the Trussville location! You guys are killing it!“

“The staff is always super nice!! The Gooey Butter cake is the best ice cream I've ever had!!“

“I took my granddaughter into Crumbl for the free thin cookie offered, along with putting in a 6 CT order. I had to ask how to get the free thin cookie. The employee wasn't very nice & said it had to be on the app. I spent several minutes & couldn't find out how. She also tried on my phone, then got the manager who was training someone @ the time. It wasn't on the app, but their screen. The 2 had words between themselves in front of us. I just didn't feel very welcome & spent about $25 on 6 cookies, which is kinda ridiculous.“

“I love this place! They have so many flavors to choose from!“

“Mario is super responsible and dependable any time our company needs his help serving children at local elementary students! He is quick at getting the children their favorite ice creams and we so appreciate all that he does to help us! The kids love it when he comes to their school!“

“We loved our shaved ice! The root beer flavor with cream was the biggest hit- so good!“

“Great tiny local bakery with some absolutely killer pastries when you're craving a little something sweet. We've had the croissants, pecan sticky buns, and fruit danishes - and all have been great. Every time we go we've tried something different and nothing is ever short of quality. Very small interior, basically just room for a few people to stand and the counter - but we don't really care about sitting inside, just be aware if that's your plan - there's no seating. Ladies behind the counter are always patient and kind.“

“I just have to take a moment to brag on K&J’s Elegant Pastries because they made my baby girl’s 4th birthday so incredibly special. When I say this cake brought tears to my eyes, I mean it. The soft pink Paw Patrol theme, sweet little Skye on top, the custom “4,” the beautiful bow, the tiny details — it was everything my daughter dreamed of and more. Seeing her face light up when she saw it is a moment I’ll never forget. 🩷 It wasn’t just a cake… it was the centerpiece of her day. It made her feel celebrated, loved, and so big turning FOUR. 🥹 Not only was it stunning, but it tasted just as amazing as it looked. The cake was moist, flavorful, and a huge hit with both kids and adults. We received so many compliments and everyone kept asking where we ordered it from. Thank you, K&J’s Elegant Pastries, for putting so much care and talent into making her day unforgettable. You didn’t just make a cake — you helped create a core memory for our family. Forever grateful 💕✨ #PawPatrolParty #4thBirthday #GratefulMama #SupportSmallBusiness“

“If you’ve got a sweet tooth, this is the place to be! The milkshakes, cotton candy, and cinnamon rolls are all absolutely delicious—you really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Everything hits the spot! On top of that, the staff is incredibly welcoming and friendly, making every visit even better. Highly recommend!“

“We went just yesterday and had the sandwich, soda, and gelato. All of it was absolutely amazing and the atmosphere was just as great. The people are extremely kind and friendly and willing to talk to you about the history and how everything came to be. We have already made plans to go back to try the coffee.“

“We were headed to our usual TCBY after my oral surgery, but they were closed. Edgewood Creamery was the only shop open at 11 am.
I am so glad! The chocolate soft serve was delicious. So many shops no longer have it, but I am so glad they did. Such a great flavor and not too sweet. My husband had Chocolate Raspberry and Kahlua Almond Fudge! Perfect! There are a variety of flavors as well. The staff was pleasant and welcoming. The shop and bathrooms are very clean. Plenty of seating! Located in a lovely area with shops and restaurants. Highly recommend.“

“De vez en cuando, hace falta darse un gustito y por eso voy a la Nueva Michoacana. Me encantan las aguas que preparan ahí. Ven y compruébalo.“

“Rude, and slow. Wait times are too long, and employees serve you based on how loud and frequently you complain instead of how long you've been there. Also helps if you're POC. They're the only ones who seemed to have gotten out in less than 20 minutes consistently.“

“Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great food as a meal or charcuterie board“

“Stopped by this location for a quick snack during shopping . cookies were amazing , fresh and staff was friendly ..don’t have picture because I ate them too fast..
Crisp edges soft center . I purchased healthy peanut butter cookie , chocolate chip and the magic city cookie .. priced between 2.75 -3.50“

“Memaw's Country Surprise was AMAZING. peach cobbler, pecan praline ice cream and sea salt caramel cream topped with whipped cream.... delightful!!! And big enough to share!“

“Ate here for the first time today. It was very fresh and delicious! Restaurant was very clean also. We will be back to try the delicious custard.“

“An Absolutely Amazingly, Freshly prepared, Gelato or Sorbet Popsicle, on a Stick.....dipped in chocolate and toppings for a unique experience....You MUST try the multitude of FRESH flavors...Enjoy!“

“Really good. I got the cold brew and the cookies and cream. My first time getting anything from them and it was delicious. The lady serving there was sweet. They do have some dairy free options. Next time I want to try their watermelon flavor.“

“Baskin Robbins has been outstanding on each visit, and trust me, there have been many visits since their opening. The service is always great. The staff are friendly. Of course, their treats are super delicious. Download the app for coupons. They have coupons in store now too. Don't miss this! Personal faves include the Workd Class Chocolate, Chocolate and Peanut Butter, Pralines & Cream, Rainbow Sherbet, Strawberry, Twix Caramel Crunch.“

“10:55 PM
You sent
Wow! Such a fun and nostalgic place to be with an incredible variety of ice cream, shaved ice, and more. I was surprised to learn that they even have something for everyone. Not only do they have vegan and sugar-free flavors, but to my surprise they even offer a number of gluten free flavors as well. We enjoyed a pleasant atmosphere that offers endless possibilities. Can’t wait to go back.“

“Great food and a great atmosphere along with speedy service-what more does anyone need??“

“Atmosphere was good, service was quick. Decent burger but nothing extraordinary.“

“Me and my daughter stopped at Pizitz Food Hall as last minute decision. I had the 2 pc catfish, hush puppies and a side of red beans and rice (RBR) with a bottle of water came to $24.20, not including tip. I asked for my catfish to be fried hard. Being Louisiana raised, this was the BEST seasoned, fried to perfection catfish. I refused to give my daughter a corner. 🤗 The hush puppies have kernels of corn which was an added bonus. I will admit I was underwhelmed with the RBR as they were quite bland and little hard than I like. But the other items made up and caused me to be satisfied enough to return.

The young men running it that day were all pleasant and personable.“
