50 Best Ice Cream Shops in Jacksonville

“As a dairy free Celiac, I can verify that Waffle Cone takes your allergens seriously and their ice cream is delicious! We are spoiled with so many options!“

“The best ice cream you will ever have. They have so many ingredients to choose from you literally can have whatever you like…..“

“So delicious! Parent Trap is the best flavor and ice cream I’ve ever had. I wish I could have it shipped. I highly recommend trying it.“

“I happened to find this place on maps because it was nearby and I do not regret going a bit out of my way to try it! The very skinny girl (sorry I didn't get her name) was so kind and helpful from the moment we walked in to the second we left. She was so cheery and friendly, and walked us through everything every step of the way. She even came from behind the counter to explain it to us face to face. The customization is awesome, and the variety is great. Would love to see some more options in the future like matcha or strawberry milks and rotating toppings (maybe different toppings vs ingredients so that you get more variety?) but we LOVED it nonetheless! My husband and I both got a regular and it was way too big so we could have shared one. Their portions are generous and the quality was great.

For those who have never been:
You choose your cup size, add fillings, add your cream base, then hand it to them to freeze up in a mixer for you. They then scoop it back out once frozen into your cup or a cone, if you buy a cone, and then you get to add toppings on top before chowing down! I will say the toppings are hard to put on because the scoop is only so big on the cup or cone and they mostly fall off, but still really good.

We would absolutely come back again and if a lay visiting friends or family asked for good ice cream, we would (and will be) bringing them here! Don't go anywhere!“

“Tasty Creamery has an array of flavors and toppings at the perfect price. my favorite is their "A La Mode" where you choose a bakery item such as a warm cookie with a scoop of ice cream and your choice of toppings.“

“Went there today and the place is so awesome. The ice cream was really good..and the best part it's just around the corner from us. Will be our ice cream stop.“

“Love the owner. She’s so professional and kind. She also take customer suggestions/ideas to try. I stay on the beach but drive to Dunn Ave every other day for he delicious Dubai up, ice cream, WAFFLES AND CREPES. Please stop by and try“

“The people were friendly and I enjoyed my milkshake and fruit smoothie. I definitely will come back to try more treats.“

“We had a great experience at Screaming Cat! High quality ice cream and sundaes and the Dreamcatcher latte is even better than Starbucks. Employees are super chill and helpful. My daughter loved all the cat themed decor and they have games, coloring sheets, and books to keep the kids busy.“

“absolutely the best ice-cream!!“

“I absolutely love this place. I love how they are always changing which also gives me something to look forward too when a favorite sweetie is available or waiting for my favorite sweetie to come up on the weekly menu. The whole idea is adorable and not to mention how delicious literally every sweetie they make is. I love surprising my kids with an unexpected trip to pick them up sweeties from Crumble just because I love them. I can’t recommend them enough. I love Crumble“

“Amazing treats and a great atmosphere. Give them a try!“

“We love Whit’s! We love to come here with our dogs and get them pup cups! Always delicious and the workers are always very nice!“

“If you are looking to eat oil, gums, dyes, carrageenan (research it no seriously) then this is NOT the place for you.

They have real ice cream here just like when you were a kid (if you are over 30).

Found ourselves here after looking up Brusters real homemade ice cream (which isn’t real homemade it is full of chemicals) I called up Millie’s and they said yes they are all real homemade.

We went by and grabbed some. Sophie was very sweet and helpful. The ice cream flavors are all great went with the classic chocolate, and then also a vanilla coconut dairy free. they both were really good. Highly recommend.“

“Myself and my two kids came in, not knowing what to expect, but wanting to support a newer local business and knowing that they served soft serve! It was so clean and so cute inside! The ice cream guy that they have all around, Conie, is absolutely adorable! They have huge homemade ice cream sandwiches and ice cream tacos in their freezers to go! We got two soft serve ice cream cones and a strawberry shortcake sundae and the strawberry shortcake sundae came with real pieces of cake! My daughter was so happy! I highly recommend for some nice family ice cream downtime.“

“Great place to visit ice cream was wonderful 💚♾️💙“

“THE BEST CUSTARD EVER😍😍😍😍“

“Crumbl Cookies never disappoints! The cookies are huge, soft, and packed with flavor. I love that the menu changes every week, so there’s always something new to try. Some flavors are really sweet, but that’s part of the fun if you love desserts. They’re a little expensive, but the cookies are big enough to share. Definitely worth trying at least once! 🍪💗“

“I love going to this Crumbl store. People there are so friendly and welcoming.
As always cookies are fresh and taste so good! The classic chocolate chip is our family's favorite. Must try their strawberries with chocolate and Dubai chocolate with Strawberries.“

“Great place to visit ice cream was wonderful 💚♾️💙“

“Always the best service and great employees and they have the best coffee and food this is my favorite place to eat in town ❤️❤️❤️🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽“

“Strawberry with chocolate flakes whitzer *chef’s kiss*“

“We love Jeremiah’s and this is now the closest location to our home. My partner is autistic and trying new flavors can be difficult. When their favorite flavor wasn’t being served Emily was super kind and patient while we tried flavors to find the ones we liked most. We really appreciate the excellent service.“

“I attended the 99 balloons and it was an amazing experience thank you happy brew the work you do is amazing, thank you for letting me be a part of it !“

“Freshly made delicious Dubai chocolate. And for the best price. EXCELLENT customer service! I made it home and realized a problem with my order and they fixed it immediately. A place I trust and love. Always fresh ingredients thank you so much!!“

“I genuinely did not expect to love this place this much. I’m usually not even a pizza person, but the Kadai Goat pizza completely changed my mind. It was sooo goatedddd, easily one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. The flavors were incredible and you could actually taste the Indian fusion in every bite. 100/10, no hesitation.

And then the puffs… omg. The bun with butter and jam, the chai, and the FALOODA??? Omggggggg, istg. Every single thing we tried was so good and had that proper Indian flavor that just hits differently. Nothing felt like it was trying too hard to be “Indian fusion” , it genuinely tasted like all the things we grew up loving, just done in such a fun way.

I live in NJ, so yes, this is definitely a trip for me, but would I come all the way here just for this? A BIGGG yes. This is probably one of the best Indian-fusion spots I’ve had in the US, and I already know I’m coming back. Huge credit to the chef Albert because every single thing deserves appreciation. Hands down, this chef deserves a toast.“

“Their great customer service and ice cream treats. We have been customers since my son started middle school at Landon 2 years ago.“

“went there a while back for breakfast got myself a steak biscuit sandwich and Coke and it was fantastic and I got a cheeseburger it was great the owners are awesome and very helpful thanks again looking forward coming back soon thanks again“

“Favorite flavor: New York Chocolate Chip Cheesecake!“

“pretty fast staff and work good with alot of customers“

“The milkshakes are almost as awesome as the staff!!!!“

“Great place for dates 😝 best Mini gelato and ice cream back when I was like 12-13 w a lesbian friend from cps 😂 best 1 on 1 place brings laughs when you’re there“

“The bubble waffle with Oreo ice cream is amazing. 10/10“

“Wonderful experience at the sweetFrog tonight!! The gal working was allergy aware and offered to get fresh toppings for our son who has a peanut allergy!! I have never come across someone so kind and caring regarding food allergies. I hope the manger reads this gives her major credit!! She made our night!“

“Great selection of treats“

“I absolutely loved my experience at Crumbl! 🍪💕 The cookies were delicious, fresh, and perfectly soft. I love that they always have different flavors to try. The service was also great, and everything was prepared quickly. I’ll definitely be coming back! 😍“

“A wonderful little Hispanic ice cream shop. There are options for fruits and lots of other treats as well. It's nice to see these local shops doing well. The establishment is very clean and the workers are very friendly Spanish is the first language here and originality is the second. Hopefully I get to return one day with my kid as I think it would be a nice experience. Would recommend.“

“Man this mango drink and chocolate chip cookies are the BOMB ‼️‼️‼️‼️ I recommend them 100%“

“Family owned and operated in Jacksonville, Florida for at least the past 50 years. All product is ordered directly from the manufacturer. Size and quantity are bigger than the local food chains..and fresher. If you have an ice cream truck or just want fresh ice cream novelties..this is the place.“

“I absolutely LOVE this place. I ventured over today, & was met with gratitude that I walked in the building. I was met with a friendly, welcoming, inviting atmosphere. Every employee there was happy I was there and even happier I was enjoying myself. (I was in heaven. I LOVE cows!) I got myself the Salted Caramel Cheesecake Shake & my friend got The Sunshine Shake. Both of them were absolutely incredible! We have now named this as our go to place when we want a sweet treat, even though we absolutely hate going to town center. We’ll be there now, (probably biweekly) will bells on! My daughter’s birthdays coming up and I just know she’s going to LOVE the mermaid shake when we take her! 10/10 hands down the absolute best milkshake I’ve ever tasted!“

“Tasty, affordable, filling.
Very glad I tried this place out, expect to be a repeat customer.

[So far we've loved the dynamite roll, create your own poke bowl, taro milkshake, honey red bean milkshake, and rose boba]“
