36 Best Ice Cream Shops in Tempe

“Whit is a friendly,fun human being! Chris is fantastic when you need a good laugh or story. Need a snack, treat, lunch, coffee? They have it all! I drive from central Phoenix to visit 🥰 recommendation is the pistachio affogato- it’s so good!“

“always a nice experience. staff is always warm and welcoming. soft serve & joe latti are the best <3 love the decor.“

“I just went to their Tempe location for their grand opening. The staff were all super nice!!! The ice cream was really good and I like how they make it right in front of you. Can’t wait to try more flavors!“

“excellent service, very friendly and delicious desserts. I love that everything is very clean. We will keep coming back many more times.“

“Tonight was my first time at Salt & Straw ever! The ice cream is so good and there are so many cool fun flavors. The store is super clean and has good vibes. The customer service is also great! Carina/Karina (idk how to spell her name I'm sorry!) was so sweet and welcomed me. She told me I could sample as many flavors I wanted and she gave me the backstory behind salt & straw which was fun to hear. I sampled her favs the ooey gooey chocolate brownie and snickersdoodle cinnamon kind. Both are so creamy and rich but I went with the snickerdoodle one, which tastes like milk after cinnamon toast crunch cereal but in the best way possible. It also seemed like there was snickerdoodle cookies inside the ice cream too. I will be coming back again!“

“Raspodos! Need you say more!“

“Not only amazing cookies, but amazing service. I appreciate when I go in and they recommend the best cookie that day based on how it turns out overall. All cookies are amazing, but even better when the staff is willing to say we got this one just perfect today, you have to try it. Shows how much they truly care! Got home and I’d say all 4 had been perfect today!“

“Awesome place to get snacks - nachos, hot fudge sundaes, ice cream, milkshakes, smoothies, and assorted candy. :-)“

“We were looking for a place to have a nice sweat treat. It was recommended by my daughter and it was amazing. The place is well kept, friendly service, and unique fun flavors of ice cream. You have to try the waffle cones it's like a cake sooo yummy. The ice cream was also on point. We loved it and will be back“

“Had a fantastic experience at Menchie’s on Baseline! Giuliana and Briana were working the counter and were incredibly friendly and helpful. They made great flavor suggestions and went out of their way to help my friend find dairy-free options—which they had plenty of. Their positive attitude and gracious customer service really stood out. 5 Stars for Giuliana and Briana - only because we can't give 10 - really helpful, courteous, and kept the place clean.

The whole visit was quick and easy, with a fast checkout process and a great selection of toppings to choose from. The store was also exceptionally clean, tidy, and welcoming. Overall, it was an enjoyable experience from start to finish. We’ll definitely be back! 🍦😊“

“Their gelato is amazing!!“

“first time trying Freddy's. the string fries are awesome. the burger Patty's are bigger than the buns and tasty.“

“Ice cream is my weakness.
Always has been. Always will be.
Walking into Zoyo is like stepping into an ice cream lover's dream. The selection is amazing, and every visit feels like an opportunity to create something completely different.
The place is always clean.
And I mean always clean.
The toppings are organized, the machines are stocked, and everything looks well cared for.
The staff always seem a little cold...
Then again, it is an ice cream shop, so I suppose that comes with the territory. 😄
Seriously though, every visit has been a good experience. The atmosphere is fun, the choices are endless, and it brings out the kid in all of us.
Whether you're eight years old or eighty, it's hard not to smile while building the perfect bowl of frozen yogurt.
I'll definitely be back.
After all, ice cream is my weakness.“

“I’m new to the Tempe/Phoenix area & looked for ice cream near where I was shopping & stumbled upon this cute shop. It reminds me of back home in St. Louis of a snack shop we had called Velvet Freeze. I will definitely be coming back, so many unique ice cream flavors & the nachos are really good too.“

“Got two scoops to compare; fresa crema and fresa leche. They were both delicious and complimented each other well! The crema had an extra creamy flavor and texture, while the leche had a much stronger strawberry flavor and was a little harder. Hope they post a menu online soon. Look forward to going back to try something else!“

“The matcha ice cream here is SO good! 🍵🍦 You can really tell they use high-quality matcha, which we really appreciate. It has such a delicious, rich flavor and is the perfect frozen treat on a hot day! I always love coming here and can’t wait to come back again.“

“Have not been there but I moved to Scottsdale last year and love to check out new places that is not far at all. is dogs allowed in? I am Indiana she weighs 7 lbs and loves to go with me.Southwest let's her go $95 each way. Do you have any Halloween dress up for dogs? I will be checking it out in a month.

“Ice Cream & Ice Cream Cakes“

“Meet with a group for lunch every Monday. Staff greets us by name, makes us feel welcome, and never makes us feel rushed to leave. Our orders are taken quickly and food is brought to our table. Food is freshly made, arrives quickly and is always hot. Love this place!“

“Awesome staff, and management.“

“Real quick..... just in case ya'll forgot, and for anyone out there who may not know- I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!
*literally the best damn ice cream, every single time 🥰

I have to give a huge shout out the OG Cold Stone on McClintock 🙌❤❤️
They're always so amazing, and everyone is so kind!
I have an ice cream obsession, that has quickly turned into a Cold Stone obsession since moving nearby this location. I stop in 4-5x a month.... they make the best ice cream, the options and flavors are perfect, and the staff are all the best! I just hope they all know how much i appreciate them!“

“There ice creams are so delicious 😋“

“I stopped by this location while visiting Arizona Mills Mall. Stopped by Häagen-Dazs ordered two small coffee ice creams cone. The flavor was excellent — rich, creamy, and very tasty.

The only downside was the service. The staff at the counter didn’t seem very welcoming and didn’t offer any samples or suggestions. Also, the total came out to almost $20 with tax for two small cones which is a bit pricey.“

“Best ice cream cakes in town! Every year they continue to outdo themselves in making my son’s birthday cake. The cake decorator is extremely talented. Always looks incredible, tastes even better and is a standout at the party. Thank you BR!!!!“

“Hire honest workers! We went through the drive thru at approx 6:30pm tonIght and ordered 2 small butterfinger blizzards. He said it would be $11 and change. Seemed high to us! We asked for Military discount and gave him $15. He gave us back approx $.40 and argued with us that we gave him $11. We did not have any singles. My husband took $15 out of his wallet and handed it to me. I Looked at it, so I know how much we gave him. Anyway, he pulled a dollar bill out of the. register and said see! I am saying he is a liar and a thief. We will NEVER go back to that Dairy Queen again, even though it is the closest to home.“

“We came across this frozen yogurt place as we were exploring the Tempe Marketplace. I was skeptical after seeing all the bad reviews but my daughter really liked her vanilla flavor topped with a ton of toppings. The place was clean, and a friendly staff member greeted us. Yogurt tasted fine and she enjoyed it. We went early Friday evening. Our experience was pretty good. It’s definitely a small place so we are not sure how busy and dirty it gets during busy periods.“

“We visited Cold Stone recently and the ice cream was really good as always. The taste and quality are nice, but I feel they should introduce some new flavors and options. It gets a little boring eating the same flavors again and again. Would love to see more creative and seasonal varieties in the future.“

“ASU Zoyo is the way to goyo! ASU CKI loved eating delicious froyo!“
