21 Best Ice Cream Shops in Bradenton

“Been here a few times now and loved it every time. The employees are great! There's one we usually see and I wish I knew their name, but they always seem very genuine and present in the conversation and I appreciate that. Also, they all make great gelati creations. I hope they all get more money bc they deserve it.“

“Today was our first visit at Ritas. I want to say our ice cream was delicious. We got one cookies and cream shake, one vanilla shake, and a mint custard. I was really impressed to see they made the shakes by hand (with milk, syrup, etc). This is the only place I know of that sells a mint custard!

The only thing I would recommend for the owner is places to sit. When you think about going to an ice cream shop, you think about going and sitting down to enjoy it.. not bringing it back to your car. There’s one bench outside but it was taken. Other than that, great ice cream ?“

“Had not been here in over 2 years. There type of ice cream just wasn’t appealing to me. But my granddaughter wanted some ice cream and it was the only one we’d make it too before it closed. So glad I did. I learned tonight that it changed owners back in 2022 and now serves regular ice cream. To my surprise and satisfaction, the chocolate fudge ice cream I had today was exceptional and clearly so was Superhero as my granddaughter left nothing but the napkin she was holding her cone with. Both Christian and Val were extremely welcoming and pleasant, and just so kind to my granddaughter which is something I look for in places I’m going to spend my hard earned money at. Customer service has gone by the wayside, but not here, at least not tonight. If you haven’t been to wicked in a long time, I urge you to check them out For some really good ice cream. You won’t be disappointed. And I had a taste of the Dulce de Leche and it was superb.“

“From the moment you walk in, the positive vibes are palpable. To walking up to the counter and having the friendliest of staff greet you. To getting your rainbow cone and just having to smile because of the flavor and the nostalgia of eating an ice cream cone. Great atmosphere. Great Service. Great food!!!!“

“I’ve seen this place many times while on the way to the beach. Decided finally to check it out. The cheeseburger was a 10/10. The chicken fingers were 10/10. The fries were 10/10. The Mozzarella sticks were 7/10. The peach shake my wife ordered was a disappointing 3/10. The chocolate shake I ordered was a 7/10.

I’m a little shocked the shakes weren’t better when they are the namesake. The food was super good though.“

“Muy rico y delicioso todos los postres recomendado siempre son amables y cordiales“

“I pre-ordered two panettones for my family for Christmas, which were the meal's spotlight. Everyone was wowed by how good the panettones were. They were moist inside and crunchy outside. The raisins and orange peels—everything was perfect. They were the best panettones we have ever ordered.“

“Blizzards were 🔥 well worth the price. Everyone loved!“

“Great place to take kiddos. My granddaughter loves going there great treats.“

“I love this sweet little place, and my nephews do too. The owner and staff is so kind, and the ice cream is rich & incredible. We got a sugar cone with cookies & cream and cake cones with rainbow respectively. It's a great spot to get some AC and old-fashioned, not price-gauging ice cream!! There's a nice drink fridge too. Highly recommend!It's right next door to Orange Blossom Cafe if you're looking to grab coffee & ice cream all at once! One of the best little corners in Bradenton.“

“We were immediately greeted by smiling staff and were patient while my daughter tried 3 flavors before deciding. Icecream is fantastic and a big thank you to Zachary for going above and Beyond when my daughter needed a lid to go, but the ice cream was in the car so he personally walked outside to find the right size for her, which was very nice“

“We used to enjoy Sweet Berries, dedpite habitually slow service. No more, after last night. We ordered soups & salads (most likely already prepared) to eat in, then sat & sat & sat while to-go orders were called - several of them had bern put in AFTER we had ordered. After half an hour my husband checked with them as to the status & was told it would be right up. More to-go orders were taken * filled, while we sat, waiting. We finally threw in the towel & demanded our money back & left. We won't ne back, and we will no longer recommend Sweet Berries to others.“

“Wonderful excellent place ? delicious and natural juices carrot, beet celery, orange, and what can we say about the vegetables freshly cut fresh fruit and above all they have an area for each preparation excellent the treatment I have been attending the place for 3 years I recommend it 100%% %“

“I will and do literally drive from Ft Myers just to eat here. Something about the burgers and the fry seasoned shoestring fries..delicious!! P.S they use long sliced pickles which makes the burgers even better!!“

“The place is clean and orderly. The management seems to really care for his employees and it shows when the handle the customer. The food is not regular fast food, rather it is cooked to order so it comes to the table hot and tasty. I highly recommend their burgers and their fish platters.“

“This was some of the best ice cream I’ve ever had, if not, THE best. Everything was homemade and authentic. I was able to try several flavors until I found exactly what was right for me. The owners were VERY patient, kind, and personable.“

“Stopped in to get a milkshake. This is a little tucked away shop in front of a boat marina. Not much of a place,but the shakes were good. They have about a dozen different flavors. They do have a small outdoor porch to sit enjoy your shake, smoothie, or ice cream. If you like quaint little shops, check this place out.“

“Renee is such an asset to DQ! She is so friendly and fun! She was so patient helping me use the app for the first time! Great food and service!“

“I've been in Florida for 3 years and have never set foot in a Culver's. I've wanted to but never have. Today was the day. ?

It was a great experience. The reataraunt is a lot bigger than I thought and very clean. The staff greeted us immediately upon arrival and had great customer service. They were all friendly and eager to answer queations.

I ordered the chicken sandwhich with onion rings and my son a bacon burger with fries. Everything arrived to the table hot and was really good.

The only thing I regret was not grabbing the pint of custard in my hand on the way out. I was too full! Highly recommend.“

“Staff should be upfront at all times not chatting on the back and then when you call them they get mean and rude to you“

“Burger and Ice Cream was excellent“
