50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Winnetka

“Menchie's Frozen yogurt is a great treat. I like that it has no preservatives and no additives. It has a great variety of flavors. I'm so glad I found a good frozen yogurt place. I also love the friendly staff.“

“The guy that usually works evenings is very nice & friendly. He deserves a raise. The owner/manager of the store working days is a rude racist. He treats my close family member like dirt. This family member is mixed race. I see the mgr. Go out of his way to be nice to others, but not my relative The manager ignores my relative, makes him wait to be checked out, ringing up ppl behind him in line first. My relative is a good customer who comes in daily. He and I will only go there in the evening when that nice gentleman is working.“

“I love Baskin-Robbins there ice-cream is really goid“

“Unique and flavorful selections of pies and sortserve.“

“Hands down they are the THE BEST!! We hosted a teacher appreciation event for a local school & the ice cream truck was a HUGE hit! So impressed with the customer service and we love supporting small business like them! Thank you!“

“Fell in love with each and every bite of my crêpe. NomZ 😋“

“This review is overdue. First, I've been here twice and the service is just amazing. The ladies that work here are so nice and so is the guy in the back. Excellent customer service. Second, on the back of the Ralph's receipt (the supermarket in the same shopping center), they advertise, buy 1, get 1 free, which is an excellent deal. And, you can use the coupons over and over which is really cool. Third, they allow you to sample all of the flavorful ice creams and are very patient with you while you make your decisions. We normally get two cones with two scoops each and buy one, get one free! It's an amazing deal! We've tried the cookies n creme, salted caramel, butter pecan, strawberry cheesecake, and the chocolate- everything is so yummy and tasty.“

“very good.. and it's right next to Joe's Pizza 😋“

“I recently bought the Earl Grey Tea and Berry Cornbread at my local Kroger store and was blown away! The richness and the flavor profiles were out of this world, especially the latter flavor of the two. It’s dangerous to know the Kroger store is only five minutes from my house. I’ll definitely be trying other flavors.“

“Our experience here was amazing , friendly staff , really nice 😊!! And the rolled ice cream 10/10 💛. This was our first time here trying out new places and will definitely will come back , our favorite was Monkey Business . We added mango and almond slices …. Sooo good !!“

“Delicious ice cream and great ambiance. Would definitely recommend!!“

“The best creamiest yogurt ice cream and it’s so nice to have a healthy place like this. Most yogurt and ice cream shops are too sweet and many have artificial colors and flavorings.

You can taste the quality of ingredients here. I tried peanut butter, chocolate, and strawberry and they were all amazing.“

“Absolutely must try this place! First, the Italian ice is delicious, brings me right back to my visit to Italy. It's so fresh and you can really taste the fruits. The shop owner, Darryl (sorry if misspelled) was so friendly, gave us so many flavors to try, and great to chat with! I'm looking forward to coming back here!“

“Manager Marissa made delivery order while at Encino store which generally has very very poor service and makes lots of mistakes with no responsive management. However the day Marissa was covering for that store my cookies were the very best I have experienced. She was supposed to respond to my email and did not but did a great job on my delivery order and given my recent delivery issues I appreciate that she made sure my order was fresh and correct“

“Best icecream in Telaviv 😋😋😋“

“I have tried out many coffee shops in the area but this one has the BEST COFFEE. No matter what I order it's always been amazing. Staff is so friendly and I love going there to do work :)“

“I just discovered this place and I’ve already been back once. I’m gonna go back tomorrow. It is a hidden gem of the Valley. I hope they get lots of business stay really busy so they’ll stay open forever. I didn’t realize how much grocery store-bought popsicles sucked until I went to this place. The owners are super nice and welcoming too.“

“I like the yogurt, but am unhappy with the price increase. I ordered a mini size raspberry cup with a vanilla base and was charged $5.05. That is a little too much.“

“Great cookiesss tryna get points lol“

“I grew up going to the original handels in Ohio. It is by far the best I’ve ever eaten! Brought back so many memories !!“

“The staff at Crumbl Cookies was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. They were happy to walk me through the flavor options and gave me great recommendations. It’s clear that they love what they do, which makes the whole experience feel even more enjoyable. The service was quick, and I didn’t have to wait long for my cookies to be boxed up and ready to go.“

“Love the yogurt, but the shop is filthy which is concerning. The woman who works there is so rude and unfriendly and she does NOT give you what you are paying for. I actually brought the yogurt home and weighed it and I was cheated! The gentleman who works evenings is super nice and definitely does his job.“

“It was our first visit to this location but definitely not our last!�“

“la número uno en el valle“

“I can’t say enough good things about Handel’s Ice Cream — so delish. Everything always tastes so fresh, and I love that you can get a really small cup when you just want a little treat. The staff is always also so sweet!

My go-to is Rocky Road with sprinkles. I do wish they had chocolate sprinkles like they do in Pennsylvania, but the red, white, and blue sprinkles are fun and very on-theme right now.

Always such a fun, decadent stop. Thank you!“

“Muy rico Yogurt, 100% Recomendado 🍉🍒🍓🍎👍“

“My friends and I were in the area and decided to give this place a try, and honestly, 10/10 would recommend. It was clean, the staff was amazing, the experience itself was just awesome. One worker, Viola, was super helpful when we said we never been there and was so positive and kind when talking to us. That experience alone made us wanna come back.“

“I love the ice cream and desserts at this shop.“

“Basim is the owner with his wife. Such amazing people, always kind, polite and always amazing ice cream. I recommend this place not only because the ice cream is amazing but because they are such sweet people. Come and support them you won’t regret it ✨“

“Delicious! Friendly staff. Games at the tables. Comfortable for all.“

“Good first experience. Lots of different flavors to choose from and free samplings available. Tables and chairs are clean. Staff is accommodating.

Temperature inside on a 90 degree day - not ideal. Felt like the AC wasn't working and blowing cool air.

Restroom - very clean. Please add a hook so women can hang their bags.

Overall a solid 4-star experience.“

“I love my 🍨🍧🍦 Happy NEW YEAR 2020“

“One of our friends told us about this hidden ice cream spot! This Sunday, we decided to visit and check it out. The Creamery Cart is located inside Alfred Coffee near Balboa and Ventura!

The ice cream here is not a copycat concept — it’s something totally new! They call it artisanal, but I call it delicious! My kids loved it, and my family really enjoyed the atmosphere.

I highly recommend everyone come and chill here! The team is super friendly, and the portions are generous. Such a great idea, and I hope it stays forever. We’re definitely going to visit whenever we get the chance.

It feels more like an experience than just getting ice cream. Plus, I love the idea that it’s located inside a coffee shop, so you can enjoy the best of both worlds in one visit.“

“Me encanta los Raspados 🍧 y las tostadas de cueritos y las tortas 😋“

“The dessert box was a big hit even by seasoned bakers. The kids claimed their favorites first. I highly recommend saving your host time and worry. Take the best. My host had a sneak bite and energized with a huge smile to greet her guests with a huge smile knowing the grand finale was going to be stunning and delicious! BIG HIT“

“Nice Yogurtland location, typical as they all are... This one seems to be a little more expensive than in the Basin....“

“Great friendly staff and clean Baskin Robbins. They have tables to enjoy your yummy ice cream and it’s clean, which is a must for me.“

“My daughter ,wife and sister in law love the mangoneada! My son and I love the pineapple paleta! The best thing about it is that they use real fruit in the ice cream! unlike other similar ice cream shops that use artificial color and or flavors(thrifty) . I live in rosamond but it's worth the drive to Lancaster YAMiS ! thanks for the great service:)“

“This spot is seriously one of the hidden gems around. The food is ALWAYS fresh, stacked, and made with care. Look at this sandwich, thick egg, fresh avocado, crisp vegetables, quality bread, everything balanced perfectly. You can tell they don’t cut corners here.

But honestly, the best part is the people. These ladies are some of the kindest workers I’ve met. They actually remember me and my order even if I haven’t been there for weeks, and they always treat me with genuine warmth and respect. That kind of service is rare now. You don’t feel like “just another customer” here.

The shop has that old-school neighborhood feeling where people actually care about their regulars. Great food, great energy, hardworking people, and consistently good service every single time.

If you want a place that deserves support, it’s this one. Much love and respect to the ladies running this shop, you can feel the heart they put into it. 🙏“

“I took my wife to this La Michoacana location tonight because we were in the area and she wanted ice cream. She decided to get the paletas de leche which is the Mexican French Vanilla popsicles. She really liked the ice cream and the flavor. Before we left she decided she wanted the agua fresca smoothie so I brought it for her. We had a great time here and the customer service was great.“

“Julian delivered outstanding customer service during an incredibly busy rush at Cold Stone. Despite a full establishment and a steady stream of customers continuing to come in, he remained completely focused on giving every single person an excellent experience. He worked quickly without ever rushing, making sure each order was done right the first time.

Even with a long line, Julian took his time at the register to ensure accuracy, double-checking orders and even asking if we had a punch card to use, something that could easily be overlooked when working solo under pressure. His professionalism, attention to detail, and calm demeanor stood out and made the experience enjoyable for everyone waiting.

I honestly couldn’t help but feel for him being on his own-he definitely could have used some support but he handled it all with efficiency and a positive attitude.

Boss man, take note and recognize this hardworking employee; dedicated workers like Julian are hard to come by these days.

Great job, Julian, and thank you for making our visit a great one!“

“Very good ! Many choices and helpful staff 😊“

“What can I say about this little gem in Brentwood. Great service and great froyo. This little yogurt shop really delivers delicious classic and interesting flavors that bring a nostalgic feeling and excites the taste buds. I have been coming here for quite some time and they continue to deliver the best that there is on this side of town. I highly recommend you give it a try!“

“So good! My boyfriend and I got a couple pints to go and a 2 flavor bowl. I always go for any flavor with chocolate chips, they are very generous with the chocolate chunks when they make the batches. Service is great. I love that that they pack the pints fresh for your order.“

“My favorite yogurt place“

“So our journey begins with a hot day. A few degrees cooler than the SF valley, but still pretty hot. As we venture through quite a bit, we were looking for a place to cool-off. The first suggestion in the car was ICE CREAM!!!! The vote was unanimous. This presented a few decisions to be made. We can go to the valley, and enjoy Cold Stone or settle for something else. Clearly it was too far. So our next decision was to find one here in Simi Valley. At this point we find ourselves with something that happens in many food chains. We tend to find the greatest link that is above our set standards. When we think those standards are met by the rest of the links, we some how find the weakest link. This typically ruins the image of the whole food chain, or just keeps us going to one. That stereotype has been debunked by Cold Stone. Benefit of the doubt, maybe not all….maybe. In my scorecard Cold Stone is two for two. Making this location the treat location away from home.

In my snapshot when we came in we missed the masses by a minute or so. Like all other families had the same Idea at the same time(Almost). Which it was comforting to see this location filled up quick. The almost all male crew and one female were pretty fast in working together to get our-oh-so yummy treats in our hands. I have been on a chocolate trip lately, and the Germanchocolatekake was a nice way to give farewell to the evening sundown and welcome to the Sunday night.

As we walked outside, they have a patio with a waterfall fountain. Unique in style the area was serene. The only issue was that the table were dirty. As other customers of the shopping center made messes. Unfortunately I don’t think this area is observed by any one business. Luckily, we keep Clorox wipes. The table got cleaned, and there was the good deed for the day. Clearly this was an issue on most of the tables. Another family also enjoyed a Cold Stone treat. So we offered Clorox wipes to them as well. The down side was that I got pictures of the Ice cream when it was done. I think it makes a good reason to go, and enjoy your own cone, or cup of joy for yourself.“

“my kids really love to stay here 👍🥰 its so delicious“

“Menchie's Frozen yogurt is a great treat. I like that it has no preservatives and no additives. It has a great variety of flavors. I'm so glad I found a good frozen yogurt place. I also love the friendly staff.“

“Great mom and pop place for anything juices, shaved ice , ice cream and hot chocolate!I got a Lulo juice,(not pictured) which is a subtle citrus yet earthy tea like shake that was right up my alley. I don't like overbearing sweetness. And since this shops main ingredients are 100% natural. It's perfect for my taste.I also got a shaved ice lemonade (pictured) which was perfect. I can taste the whole lemon essence with a perfect amount of sweetness!My brother got a hot chocolate (pictured) And it was phenomenal. A slightly gritty drink but all cocoa chocolate. Almost like a abuelitas chocolate mix. But way less sweet and more coco forward. Highly highly recommend.Overall if I lived near and frequented the mall I'd always get something from here. Please support them!!!!“

“I had my favorite sweet & creamy chocolate chip & cherries jubilee! So sweet as an evening treat!“
