Best ice cream on the circle. A little off the beaten path but worth the walk. It's behind the bank parking at the west end of the circle towards Lido... Bring cash cause that's all they accept... đ§ On site.

Consumer Review
Absolutely the creamiest ice cream I have had in a long time and I am not a huge ice cream lover! Cookie Monster and White Chocolate raspberry were delicious. Both my kids got it and no one shared :( Definitely a place to visit here.

As we drove onto St Armands Key tonight, the damage left by Hurricane MIlton was apparent. We were immediately concerned about one of our regular go-to spots - Big Olaf Creamery. Happily, the lights were on and BOC is open for business! Per usual, the ice cream is great, service is fast and friendly, and the pricing surprisingly reasonable. Ice cream usually lifts one's spirits, but never more than tonight after viewing so many businesses left dark.

Cute old fashioned ice cream shop. Same owners for over 40 years. Great ice cream and a good price. And I always like to support smaller businesses!
The first order of business on any vacation is to find a good ice cream shop for the kiddos. Mission accomplished at Big Olaf's. We enjoyed some of the freshest ice cream you could find anywhere. I made three trips here in a week, and wish I'd made more. Cookies and Cream was my choice, but all parties enjoyed their selections.

Must try! Delicious homemade ice cream! Owner was extremely nice. Reasonably priced and large portions. We had the pistachio and monster cookie in waffle cones. Would recommend both flavors.

Good ice cream, good portions, and a good price. I particularly liked the triple peanut butter. Thumbs down for the Styrofoam cups.
I love how nice the owner was. The ice cream was very delicious, the owner was wonderful. I appreciate how clear the sign was that it was cash only, there is atm! Wonderful place, would go again!

My recent visit to Big Olaf Creamery was underwhelming. The shop operates on a cash-only basis, which was inconvenient and resulted in longer wait times. The service lacked enthusiasm and guidance, making it feel transactional rather than welcoming. While the ice cream flavors were decent, the portions were small for the price. Overall, improvements in customer service and payment options are needed to enhance the experience.

I cannot express how perfect this ice cream shop is! Family friendly, fair priced, and delicious! Literally everything you want in an ice cream spot! My kids each chose an ice cream flavor and then continued to search the shoppe for hidden Pokémon, gnomes, and other trinkets! The chocolate ice cream was beyond exceptional. The man behind the counter (wish we got his name) was so funny and friendly. He made jokes about our family wearing opposing sports apparel! We loved him. We will only go to Big Olafs when we return.
