“This is truly a Winter Garden treasure! This family-owned shop has the kindest owners, outstanding ice cream, and great prices. We enjoyed it so much, we visited two nights in a row. It’s officially our family’s new favorite spot! 🍦🍨😋“

“Hands down, the best ice cream! My family and I always have a great time when we go to the Summerport location for ice cream. Kevin Lease and his team are also always a blast at our many community events! Don't waste your time at other Ice Cream Shops. Kelly's is the best!“

“OMG!!! This is the BEST ice cream I have EVER, EVER eaten!! I got the Cappuccino Crunch on a sugar cone!! This ice cream is so good, I bought a pint to go!! I highly recommend checking it out!!“

“Love Dolly Lama! Great for vegan options. The owners are always so welcoming and kind!“

“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!“

“The ice cream was delicious and there were so many unique flavors to choose from. However, I couldn't get over the low prices! A double scoop for only $4.50? That is insane. Any other place with this quality of ice cream would charge closer to $4.50 for a single scoop. They were also very generous with the size of the scoops. Go get some ice cream here--you will not be sorry!“

“I ❤️they ice cream it’s very good“

“Love, love, love Ritter’s! Went in today and Datlan was so kind and helpful. He had a smile on his face and was ready and willing to answer all of the questions that we had. Thank you for your kindness and friendliness! Ask for him next time you’re there. 😊“

“Creamy and 😋 delicious 🤤💗“

“Delicious ice cream and they sell Zweigle’s hots. We are originally from Rochester, NY, where Abbott’s was born. Zweigle’s is also a product of Rochester. My favorite hot dogs they are pop-opens which means they should be grilled or broiled NEVER boiled. Loved being here, it brought back a lot of wonderful memories, especially seeing all the Abbott’s posters from the 30’s, 40’s, 50’s and 60’s.“

“First time trying Jeremiah’s Italian Ice and it was pretty good. This is a walkup location with tables/seating available just steps away from the window. The staff allowed me to try a couple samples while I was trying to figure out what I wanted. They friendly and didn’t rush me even though it was a bit busy. While I can’t say I will make a special trip for it. I can say it would be in the running if I am out and want a sweet treat.“

“I have been enjoying it since we lived in Winter Park FL and I think that it was the original location, I love it that you can make so many flavor combinations, and you can ALWAYS get a sample.“

“Delicious!!! Stop here in Dr Phillips!“

“Love the ice cream from brusters my only complaint is the fact when you order a pup cup they give you like a very mini drop of vanilla ice cream expect to give it to my dog I was like really that’s what you’re giving me … No I’ll pay you for a cup of ice cream then was told we don’t have whip cream seriously why would I give my dog whip cream over real ice cream so either fix this or I’ll take my business somewhere else plus my blast I got tonite wasn’t all that you’ve done better so Brusters get with the program and do better !!!!“

“Delicious, all natural paletas. My kids first choice is strawberry! 🍓“

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

“I accidentally stumble across this cafe while looking for lunch during our road trip. Not knowing much about mexican drinks the girl at the cash register offered me 2 different types of drink samples. I liked the Agua de limon. It was very affordable and a healthy drink! The hospitality received from this cafe was the best I've received in Florida. Highly recommend you visit and try their drinks.“

“I've driven through Lake Wales from Vero Beach to various Tampa area places for 15 years. I'm not sure I ever noticed Topper's before. As it happens, I was en route to a Tampa Cybersecurity Conference the other day. We celebrated office birthdays for lunch (great brauts!) so I headed to my meeting. As I passed through Yeehaw Junction I was crac=ving a good icecream cone.\n\nI love a good frozen custard but they are getting harder to find than hen's teeth. I was spoiled in Virginia where we had had many small towns with a frozen custard with fresh and delicious treats all summer.\n\nThe swirl-topped purple accented building caught the corner of my eye as I traveled westbound. I missed the entry on State Route 60 so I made the next right and entered via the shopping plaza parking lot.\n\nIt was worth the detour. I'm a certified chocoholic (it's said in jest here) so I ordered, guess what?? They have several flavors including a "special" offered. As it happened, Wednesday is "Cone Day" with a nice discount on sugar and waffle cones; I got the waffle. It was ginormous! It took me to Bartow to finish. This a great stop or destination on a motorcycle cross-country or a family outing.“

“Oh my...they make fresh tortillas. I didn't care to buy any..then when we were on the road and I sampled my friends..I totally regretted my choice. I ate 3 of her 12. Flan was amazing. The fresh fruit drinks were refreshing on a hot Florida day.“

“Excellent ice cream! I'm not used to a Mexican sweets store, but that doesn't mean it wasn't great!“

“I entered Cold Stone’s Sinter Garden expecting ice cream and left spiritually reborn. The moment I tasted that euphoric swirl of flavors—chocolate thunder battling rainbow sprinkles in a vanilla dimension—I heard a Gregorian chant erupt from the whipped cream. The waffle cone crunched like the bones of a candy-coated unicorn. A child screamed. Not out of fear, but respect. My spoon melted from sheer awe. Somewhere, a lactose-intolerant man wept softly in the corner, holding a pint like a forbidden scroll. Five stars. My pancreas may never forgive me, but my soul is wearing a cape and doing cartwheels“

“Staff was amazing and helpful! Great desserts as always! Place was clean and everything was efficient!“

“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!“

“Clean, lots of options, and friendly staff. Definitely will be returning often with whole family!“

“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.

“Cookies were good, the Cotton Candy was our best, then second was the Oreo birthday cake, then the basic chocolate chip and last was the peanut butter Munch. I am a huge peanut butter lover and the peanut butter Munch slacked on peanut butter flavor but it was still ok. The cookies are slightly pricey, so definitely not something we will be doing on a regular. But not bad for our first time.“

“Got their graham cracker ice cream. It was incredible!!!“

“Being from Louisiana, my family was super excited to see snowballs that we recognized. Not only were they delicious and the flavors were spot on but it was very quick service and super friendly staff! We can’t wait to go back!“

“Lots of your standard creamy ice cream treats. All the basics are available with several flavors and toppings etc. Prices were also very fair. I also like that there's some picnic tables there and a few of them are under as shaded overhang.“

“Great food and drinks! Friendly staff, and great weekday specials. I got the steak street tacos and they were fantastic! Elvera gave me great service at the bar, will definitely come back!“

“I had the BEST customer service from Makena. I called the store about my order that I placed online. She was so pleasant and kind on the phone with me and then when I received my delivery she had a little note in there telling me she hopes I enjoy my treat. I frequent this store and she was by far the most pleasant person who works there. Thank you Makena for showing me that there really are kind people still in the world“
