16 Best Ice Cream Shops in Lake Buena Vista

“Was visiting and wanted go check Disney Springs and ofc I had to get ice cream so my boyfriend and I want to Salt & Straw - Nevin helped us out and was so amazing! Super patient and not only let us try all the flavors but also gave his opinion and some information how the ice cream is made! We ended up getting honey lavender and panther coffee sooo good :)“

“Wow, this hit the spot! It's hot, and I am tired from all of the walking, lol. So right in front of us is the Sunshine Tree Terrace. A quick stop 'n go type of place that offers soft-serve ice cream. Their special is this citrusy flavor called Orange Cream Float! The price was $5.29. It reminds me of the creamsicles from years ago. I'm happy again!“

“Literally the best! Did you know you got a free dole whip if you were the first in line?! They open at 10:00 by the magic carpets! If you are the first person they serve you get it 100% free! Whichever one you choose! It was such a lovely surprise! I got the chamoy and tajin! 100000% recommended for the simple kind gesture and the happiest friendliest people!“

“I got the chocolate peppermint cookie Sunday Loved it a little melted but delicious �. Cast member was very nice.“

“Delicious ice cream a must“

“Great place to get a snack or a treat, while I was there right outside was a parade which was fun to watch and eat. I recommend getting a table before the parade because it gets really busy during and right before the parade. I got the turkey leg, a lot of people love it but it was not for me. The other people I was with loved it though so I recommend trying it if you have not had it.

Vegetarian options: A lot of fruits.

Dietary restrictions: They have different kinds of fruits for dietary restrictions also.

Parking: Hundreds of parking spots

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly

Wheelchair accessibility: Very wheelchair accessible“

“Delicious bubble waffles and crepes!“

“We picked up the Yeti Sundae and it was just what we needed on a hot day. Snow capped chocolate ice cream piled as high as the Himalayas with blue frost sprinkles and a Yeti chocolate lurking on the tip. (Snow is made with vanilla ice cream)“

“I really enjoyed the soft-serve here; it’s nothing insane, but always hits the spot.
They serve normal Mickey Ice Cream Bars and Sandwiches well.
Overall, a very nice tiny spot in the big green dinosaur at Hollywood Studios“

“Simply great service“

“Ghirardelli’s at Disney Springs is a sweet spot for both your taste buds and your Instagram feed. The fudge & ice cream are rich/indulgent, perfect for cooling off between shopping sprees. Bonus: you get great views and live entertainment right outside most times! Pro tip: get a Mini Sundae; it’s half the price and still generous enough to crush the craving without leaving you in a sugar coma!“

“Food was great and very good service.“

“Right next to Galaxy’s Edge and the perfect spot for savoury and sweet items. I had the Mickey pretzel and my sis had the cinnamon rolls. Didn’t have to wait long at all for my food. If you’re a Coca Cola fan I would definitely recommend this place for snacks or lunch because they incorporate the cola in their food. For example, the cinnamon rolls had cola flavoured nuts sprinkled on top. I enjoyed it! The Mickey pretzel was a bit dry but that was on me because I didn’t take the cheese sauce.“

“Both the Elio Float and Surfing Stitch Float are five-star sips that deliver on flavor and fun. The Elio combines crisp Sprite, shimmering purple syrup, and bursting boba for a refreshing kick, topped with creamy vanilla soft serve and raspberry sour straws for a sweet finish. The Surfing Stitch surprises with a tropical twist—classic Dole Whip blended with Powerade for a bold, unexpectedly tasty combo.“

“Went for lunch on a Wednesday. Ordered the hot dog…it’s HUGE. Fries were hot. My companion had a burger and fries and was also pleased. I wish I had room for ice cream…
Perhaps next time, I will just get ice cream and no real food.“

“This is such a great spot. Perfect little walk up bar right by Everest. We’ve never waited in line but we’ve always ended up seeing a line after we’ve ordered so maybe that’s just luck of the draw. The bartenders are really great and can make accommodations upon request. For example, there was a drink I was really interested in but it had whiskey and I’m just not a fan. She recommended a replacement and adjusted the recipe accordingly. It was amazing and I ended up going back for a second. The only reason I can’t give all 5 stars and I truly believe Disney waters down its booze (and I get why, but it offends me lol)“
