50 Best Ice Cream Shops in Orlando

“First time visitors. An interesting addition to the world of Harry Potter. It's nice to see Universal stretching to expand the functionality of this somewhat under utilized corner near the rest rooms. Good theming. Looks like a good stop on a warm day. Full level entry with a wide door for ADA requirements. #ADA #ice cream #harry potter #Universal“

“Best ice cream ever and with the Grand Marnier it was super special 10 out of 10 recommend“

“Thank you Joury Ice Cream for hosting our group today! The ice cream was delicious and the staff was fantastic! I called them an hour before we planned to arrive with a group of over 30 moms and kids ready to celebrate the end of camp with ice cream. Joury Ice Cream was more than accommodating with our large group and made sure we were all taken care of. I highly recommend giving them a visit!“

“Thank you for serving my family 10/13 for an after dinner treat after eating at "Tasty Wok" (next door, amazing food for anyone wondering). I ordered the Halo Halo, Ube Brownie and two different scoops of ice cream on a waffle cone. Amazing flavors, exotic, original, whatever else you want to call it. My kids could not stop complimenting the ice cream. Everything felt clean for an ice cream shop. Another star would be added for this alone. Thank you again, we hope to return. (Ocala resident)“

“Yummy Italian ices and ice cream. Great service! The gentleman was so friendly and welcoming.“

“Love the flavors especially the ash coconut which is a lovely licorice color and full of coconut goodness. The mint chocolate (their name is more creative) is really nice. Sit outside and enjoy creamy, delicious vegan ice cream. Updated from previous review on 2025-04-04“

“I usually don’t write reviews but I believe when someone or someplace deserves one, well… Loved this place from the variety or flavors to the service renders by the staff ( very friendly and professional) I had banana pudding and OMG!!! the texture and taste was amazing I want to thank the owners Louis and Marcelo for helping me with my selection. Will be back with my family and friends soon“

“The best gluten free food we found in Orlando. They have so many options and everything is delicious. They have savory and sweet, and I honestly couldn’t pick a favorite. Cheesecakes, cupcakes, waffles, a heavenly dish with eggs, bacon, cheese, and a yummy sauce over amazing fries. We were too full to try the gf waffle cones and ice cream!“

“This is my go to coffee location. The midnight oil dark roast is so tasty AND everyone working at this location is so friendly and nice.“

“My daughter is very picky with ice cream and saw a Facebook ad requesting we go. We went and ordered 4 different things in the hopes she’d eat something. She finished her entire ice cream and literally gave it a thumbs up. Usually she eats 1-2 bites and says she’s done. My 2 year old swapped between his and mine because he couldn’t decide what was better. My husband finished his first and doesn’t usually eat ice cream. We got strawberry sorbet, Greek yogurt, Belgium chocolate, chocolate hazelnut Oreo-one was made into a sandwich nothing but deliciousness!“

“Kelly’s has a special place in our hearts! We go 2-3x a month. The ice cream is high quality and you get what you pay for. We have too many favorite flavors to list, but I want to personally shout out to any of the monthly flavors that have been dark chocolate based; there is nothing better to cure a bad day than the chocolatiest of chocolates, and this is that! (I’m looking at you cosmic brownie and German chocolate cake!) Here is a roundup of all the locations our family of 5 has tried: Maitland 11/10 - Our favorite location. Always great service from Andy, the freshest waffle cones/bowls, and always has all the flavors in stock. Ample parking and seating indoors and nearby outdoors to suit your fancy. Consistently perfect! Ferncreek 9/10 - The ice cream is great, and the outdoor area is adorable. Parking is a little rough but it’s a historic area and understandable. Horizon West 10/10 - Stellar waffle cones/bowls, special products, and the best indoor seating. Winter Park 7/10 - A little cramped and no indoor seating, but when the weather is nice the outdoor area is cute! Special shout out for the oatmeal creme pie flavor only available here. Waffle bowls tend to be stale. Winter Garden 9/10 - Extremely friendly service and fresh waffle bowls, we just wish it was a standalone for easier access and less crowding. Hunter’s Creek 7/10 - Stale waffle cones and less than fresh ice cream, but we love the ample parking, wide variety, and proximity to our home away from home. Sanford 5/10 - The only disappointment we’ve had trying so many locations. Waffle cones so stale you can bend them like rubber, and the unfriendly coffee shop staff manning the ice cream counter unwilling to make fresh cones. Ice cream itself is stale and not at all on trend with the Kelly’s brand and stellar reputation. “Sold out” of multiple flavors, and one case has a broken light and door. Just seems like this location doesn’t get the same TLC as the rest.“

“If you haven't visited Paisano's hot dog you have to come and eat here. The dogs are a delicacy and the attention is special!! We have been coming to eat for years and we haven't changed it. Dogs to eat with their eyes closed“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ we just tired them for the first time at monster jam in Orlando. The ice cream was good and the workers was very nice. I couldn’t carry 5 ice creams so they offered to help me back to my family! Thanks again“

“Yummy! Always a great place to get a treat!“

“Yummy ice cream and wonderful staff!!“

“Being a Coldstone fan all through my life, this place was a hidden gem where ice cream is made fresh everyday. The price is simply unbeatable too for the freshness & taste. After the $15 ice cream debacle at Universal Studios, this place put me to peace & unburied my hopes of enjoying good ice cream. My personal favorites amongst many is smores & birthday cake.“

“This place is Amazing Sadya was the best and the ice cream and boba was Amazing i highly recommend this place if you are traveling to orlando the atmosphere is really amazing as well“

“We loved it! There are so many yummy ice cream flavors to choose from and the waffles are delicious. Nice friendly service and a comfortable place to enjoy your dessert“

“Delicious and unique treats. Cute and cozy place with great hospitality.“

“Crispy cone was the best ice cream cone Eva more favor to it though“

“OMG the corn ice cream is seriously delicious, the Baileys and the coconut too. We still have to try and as they go they have ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. In their store and in their mobile business they are very clean, everyone is pleasant and professional. Thank you for making delicious ice cream from Ponce,?? for the world.“

“I absolutely love this place! It’s spotlessly clean, and the staff is incredibly friendly. They always play Disney music, which adds a fun and cheerful vibe. The frozen yogurt is delicious, and my favorites are Cookies & Cream and Cheesecake—both are fantastic! Highly recommend for a sweet treat!“

“i love jeremiah’s and when i was in the hospital for anaphylactic shock last week all i wanted when i got out was a bullfrog sized smores gelati!!! I also go to this shop all the time and it’s always super clean plus service is quick and efficient even if there’s a rush. i also like that they are dog friendly and serve free pup cups! as you can see even my cat likes Jeremiah’s 😹

Dietary restrictions: They do rinse their scooping tools between orders but ultimately the scooping tools are used interchangeably with all the italian ice flavors. I have a serve peanut allergy myself and i’ve never had an issue with allergen cross contamination at this location. If you’re feeling unsure just ask the server to use an unused scoop for your italian ice/gelati order. The ice cream comes from a soft serve machine and has no potential for allergen cross contamination.“

“Amazing ice cream and fabulous customer service!“

“Best ice cream I've ever had!! Everything is cold and made to order, the employees are the most polite I've ever experienced including the manager himself who will, not only make the ice cream for you, but will also help out taking orders at the window and giving customers their orders when it is busy. Even on a cold day, it's still worth having some as there are many flavors and variations of the confectionery to try out. College kids at UCF can get a student discount as long they have their student ID'S with them. Highly recommended 👍🏾👍🏾“

“As soon as I stepped in, I was impressed by everything! The enticing smell of waffle cones being made, the spacious atmosphere, and the large selection of ice cream was just wonderful! The staff was welcoming and helpful. I will definitely be back again!“

“This was my first time at Bacio. What an awesome experience. I was greeted upon entry, and explained the menu. They had a huge selection of flavors. i chose praline pecan, banana pudding, pistachio & lemon sorbet. All were amazing! The service provided by Natalia & Emma was stellar. I like the way they worked together to make sure all customers were assisted (It was busy). I will certainly be back. Please go support this locally owned establishment.“

“What a Delicious Ice Cream. We didn't know that here we were going to find a Lucciano like in Argentina, and we quickly went in to buy. Lots of variety and without a doubt we will repeat before returning to Argentina. The Cashier Julio was very attentive and even helped us change the sizes of gelatos and choose the best flavors. Keep it up! Recommended place.“

“I recommend this place to any person who listens, they live up to the hype. I always go for the triple taiyaki special (3 for $13), forever love the kimchi melt and custard cream. They have a punch system, my partner and I went to each redeem a free taiyaki. There were some issues with the accounts and payment but the person working was SO sweet and patient, gave us a gift for the inconvenience. We were so happy, and I forgot to ask for their name! They had these really cool lips piercings, they made our day!🥺💖“

“I ❤️they ice cream it’s very good“

“Baccio Ice Cream is hands down the best ice cream I’ve ever had! Their flavors are rich, creamy, and absolutely delicious. You can tell they use high-quality ingredients because every bite is pure perfection.

Whether you’re in the mood for classic favorites or something unique, Baccio never disappoints. The service is always friendly, and the atmosphere makes the experience even better. If you’re an ice cream lover, this place is a must-visit!“

“Love twistee treat, Bruni is amazing!!!!“

“Honestly was alittle surprised with how much I enjoyed yet another cookie and desserts place with so much competition crumble will surely take you by surprise

Parking: Gardens park location lots of parking through the area“

“This crumbl place is amazing !! To the cookies and the people it just great. I may only be doing this for the crumbs on the app, but all I’m saying is true! Lookie lookie lookie, it’s crumbl cookie! Crumbl cookie 4life crumbl cookie!! 😂“

“Perfect ice cream place if you want to get a quick treat through the drive thru or sit on the patio and enjoy the weather! Very friendly staff especially Marissa and Tracy! 🍦😊“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ we just tired them for the first time at monster jam in Orlando. The ice cream was good and the workers was very nice. I couldn’t carry 5 ice creams so they offered to help me back to my family! Thanks again“

“I tried out 2 of the Halloween creations they have. I tried out the "Smashing Pumpkin " which is Pumpkin pie ice and vanilla ice cream and topped with mini m&ms and kit Kat and oreo cookie crumble. The 2nd one was called "The Monster Mash" which is blue razz and has cookie and cream ice cream and with the same toppings. Both were very good. Check it out fast. Limited time only.

Parking: Lots of parking spaces but too many empty at peak times.“

“What a treat it was to visit my fellow Mexican ice cream shop. They had plenty of associates on the clock, were polite and very friendly They were indeed! I claim good energies and I absolutely will come back to enjoy some other flavors they had available. I believe that this area is still undergoing a lot of concrete development. we need more underground companies like this one stepping forward it shows us that anybody can make it inside this tough economy even selling ice cream. I must really thank God and Mr. Biden for allowing us to continue to grow our presence as a proud Latin community! All so beautiful! #cuteladies.

“GO GET YOU SOMEEE!!!!!!Listen I know that on occasion the açaí spots can be a little redundant.However the fresh juices and the smoothie options really set a great tone for what you should expect.I ordered bowl number three sub chia seeds for granola and I also ordered a sugar cane juice straight ????The fruit and the açaí were literally cut right in front in me and it gives such a fresh taste the other places are lacking.It’s a must try, it’s a must save #supportsmallbusinesses“

“Every week my experience is better than the previous one, the attention is always a 💯 from the Cold Stone team, the goats are the best, they make me feel at home and as for their wonderful ice creams, each creation is wonderful, their texture, softness and creaminess Cold Stone is a 100/100“

“I love menchies, it’s a self serve frozen yogurt place where you can add your own toppings and pay by weight. The workers are always in the back but are nice enough and the place is normally quite clean.

Dietary restrictions: They have nutritional information on the products“

“Amazing selection and wonderful customer service. Highly recommend.“

“Excellent, the best ice cream in Orlando and its super friendly and cordial manager!!!!!

Parking: Very accessible and comfortable to enter

Kid-friendliness: The kids enjoy the seating area, very safe

Wheelchair accessibility: It has an accessible ramp for wheelchairs and the disabled.“
