50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Homewood

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

“We recently hosted my daughter’s birthday party at Neighbors. We cannot stop raving about our experience! It was hands down the easiest birthday party we have ever experienced. The staff at Neighbors took care of everything! The shop was decorated with balloons, party favors made, and the tables were set with paper and crayons. They played a slide show of my child and got to pick out the playlist. We walked into a fully set up party and a happy and accommodating staff! The kids and parents raved about the experience. They were SO accommodating when it came to unexpected siblings tagging along by letting us have the options of additional party favors and having a tab open for extra ice cream. After the party, the staff took care of all the clean up leaving us feeling like we just got the red carpet treatment. If you have a party coming up I strongly encourage you to check out their events page on their website. I will be recommending them to everyone. We have hosted so many kids parties. This was by far our favorite (and easiest) one!“

“A nice welcome addition to the ice cream scene around Birmingham! We went here on a Sunday night for a treat after dinner. The menu is great, ingredients are high quality. The soft serve comes in a cup, or two cone sizes (low top or high top). We opened for a high top cone and a sundae in a cup. Pricing is about what you would expect for a trendier ice cream place, ~$8-10 pp. They have a rotating flavor / feature sundae which I think is creative. There’s definitely something on the menu for everyone, from plain cones to BYO concoctions.

I am giving 4 stars only because of the building layout- it is deceptively small on the inside, so plan on taking your ice cream to go and eating it outside. The door also opens awkwardly from the inside, which created a jam with the people waiting inside and those standing in line outside.“

“Visited Cookie Fix for the first time today! Excellent experience and the cookies are superb!“

“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.“

“We have visited Sunshine Creamery twice this summer and both times it was PACKED! Each worker behind the counter was so kind and patient with everyone. They were efficient even with the large crowds. The inside is clean and perfect for families. We love having this little treat spot in our neighborhood!“

“Food is amazing and the staff are always helpful and attentive.“

“Cuando vengo a Pelham, me es imposible evitar venir y degustar alguna de las delicias que aquí consigues. ¡siempre vuelvo!“

“This is my favorite Shaved ice Stand, but I also work here and own it lol“

“Great ice cream and great customer service. Logan waited on us and when we shared one of our kids cannot have peanuts he went the extra step to make sure no cross contamination occurred.“

“This ice cream shop is a such a gem in Cahaba heights!! Their cookies and ice cream are both amazing! They make a great cookies and cream and they have fun seasonal flavors too (lucky charms/st patty themed). Staff provides stellar service every time too. Don’t miss this spot if you are in the area!“

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

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

“Wow wow wow! Ok. So, I'm not really a cookie person so it took me a long time to see what this place was about. And now . Well. I might be developing an addiction. Some of their options are desserts disguised as cookies. Like the Dubai cheesecake and heathbar tres leches. .both incredible btw. We got a bunch of different flavors and shared. And for that, I tried various cookies and the pink sugar cookie, the ultimate peanut butter cookie, and the brownies Sunday cookie. Cookie we're all enough to make me a cookie person. It's going to be hard to enjoy this place in moderation. Everything is really good“

“we just had so much fun getting ice cream cones! our scooper Chris was charming and handled our group with a smile! delish!“

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

“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“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“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!“

“Absolutely exquisite! Exceptional chia latte and panini sandwich! The gelato was off the chain. Kelly greeted us and everyone was very knowledgeable, kind and personable. Our Masters hand, peace and joy is upon this establishment. What a gem!! Thank you and may God continue to bless us all ❤“

“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.“

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

Personal faves include the Workd Class Chocolate, Chocolate and Peanut Butter, Pralines & Cream, Rainbow Sherbet, Strawberry, Twix Caramel Crunch.“

“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“

“Breakfast was great and prices nice .“

“Amazing banana spilts and milkshakes! I love that you can customize with any flavor of your choice! Prices are reasonable as well! Great service!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Absolutely delicious 😋 Sorbet and Italian Ice! Coconut Cream was my Favorite! The staff was friendly and welcoming! Traveled from NC to visit family and will make this a regular stop for all future visits to Birmingham Area!“

“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.“
