41 Best Ice Cream Shops near Homewood

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

“I visited Neighbor’s today with three kids that I babysit after a trip to the park across the street. We had visited a few times before, so I recognized the man working behind the counter. He greeted us kindly and got the kids their ice creams. When it came time to pay, I went to tap and my card declined. This is where Neighbors stands out. The young man behind the counter said it was okay, and to just repay them when I returned. I definitely should have planned better and brought cash, but the kindness that he demonstrated is what makes Neighbors stay true to their name. (I did return and pay not even 20 minutes later with some cash I had in my car)“

“Excellent place for ice cream and shakes. My expectations were high because others references , so I found out was not the level I expected but still a great flavor a tasted and the right price. Also it is close to the cultural downtown zone of Birmingham that's add an extra reason to visit it.“

“We stopped by this Jeni’s location on a Friday night and the line was LONG. Despite that, the two employees were, admirably, able to get through everyone in a very timely manner. The ice cream was amazing as always. Super cute decor inside!

Ooey Gooey Butter Cake: 10/10
The best Jeni’s flavor!

Bastani Sonnati: 6/10
A very unique, seasonal flavor featuring saffron, rose, and pistachio. The ice cream itself was pretty good, but the pistachio left a bit of a strange aftertaste that really ruined it. Would not get this again.

Parking: This strip mall has its own lot with ample parking. There are plenty of stores and great restaurants to try nearby“

“Visited my favorite ice cream shop today. If you need a little pick-me-up or a dose of pure joy, I highly recommend visiting Unless U Scoops any weekday between 1:00 p.m. 5:00 p.m. And the ice cream is pretty awesome also!“

“We come here all the time and the ice cream is FANTASTIC but every single employee here appears to hate their lives.. tonight there were 2 girls working and they were very unfriendly. No greetings, didn’t speak to us.
The employees here always kill the experience :/“

“Great food. Aguas and ice cream!“

“THE best ice cream shop in Birmingham! Their ice cream is special from Wisconsin and you can taste the goodness of coming from the dairy capital. But if you go, be sure to sample the “Serious” ice cream… you’ll be glad you did. 😉“

“One of the spots we look forward to the most when coming to town for wrestling. Amazing cupcakes, cookies and lemonade. Cannot wait for y'all to start shipping!“

“I love going to this Crumbl when we are in the area. It became part of our routine during the time my son was going through treatment for Hodgkin’s Lymphoma at Children’s. We have continued the trips to get Crumbl cookies, cakes and pies when we are in town for checkups. This store is always clean, friendly, and the treats are top notch!! We are always super satisfied with what we get from here!“

“My first impressions were this is a very nice environment. Bright, open, airy and organized. I was excited to try the confetti cake bcuz I'd seen it at the Vestavia Hills location, but they were sold out of them. I'm not a regular customer so I wasn't sure if this cake was their first roll-out of large, shareable desserts. Anyway the cake was presented to me before it was boxed up and I was satisfied with its appearance. I finally tried some later on at home and was surprised that it tasted like a fine dusting of cornstarch was present on it. I mean, that's the first thing that came to mind. The cake had a large crumb like a box cake would. Overall, I was somewhat disappointed but I chalked it up to it being cold, as they keep certain desserts refrigerated. The baker did tell me the cake was brushed with condensed milk, which isn't a bad thing. It adds another layer of flavor and moisture. Well, at this point, I put the cake in the cabinet overnight. The next day, it tasted way better! I gave half of it away, and finished my piece. I can't wait until the strawberry shortcake rotates back around.“

“I stopped by Hello Bakery and was blown away by their delicious croissants—but what really stood out was the owner's kindness! I bought four pastries, and to my surprise, they gifted me a free almond croissant! 😍

Croissant Quality:
The croissants here are perfectly flaky, buttery, and freshly baked. The plain croissant had a crisp exterior with soft, airy layers inside, while the almond croissant (my free treat!) was rich, slightly sweet, and packed with crunchy almond goodness. Absolutely delicious!

Customer Service:
The owner was warm and welcoming, and the free croissant was such a lovely gesture. It’s rare to find a bakery that cares so much about making customers happy!

Final Thoughts:
If you want top-tier croissants and a bakery that goes above and beyond, Hello Bakery is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be back—maybe they’ll surprise me again! 😉 Highly recommend! 🥐💛“

“We walked up right at closing time and we were reading the menu and hours on the door. The owner opened the door and offered to serve us, 5 of us. The churros were amazing and the service was exceptional. I’m only in Birmingham every few weeks- but will be stopping by each time for a treat! Thank you going out of your way to let us try your amazing churros!“
