Bo’s Ice Cream is a Tampa treasure! This old-school stand has been serving up sweet, creamy happiness since 1954—and you can taste the history in every bite. Whether you’re a soft-serve purist, a milkshake fan, or someone who needs sprinkles on everything, Bo’s has something nostalgic and delicious for everyone.
The ice cream is always smooth, flavorful, and perfectly portioned. The vanilla and chocolate swirl is a classic, but their dipped cones and banana splits are just as crave-worthy. And don’t sleep on the milkshakes—thick, rich, and just the right kind of indulgent.
What makes Bo’s even better is the atmosphere: friendly service, reasonable prices, and that charming retro walk-up window that feels like stepping back in time. It’s the kind of place where generations of locals bring their kids, and tourists stumble upon it and instantly get why it’s beloved.
If you’re in Tampa and looking for a sweet treat that hits every note—Bo’s is the spot. Fast service, good vibes, and unbeatable ice cream. A true local legend!

Yummy food at reasonable prices. Very good service; everyone greeted us and was quick to help anytime we needed something. We got snow cones and soft serve.

Best ice cream drive-thru in Tampa. obviously because they have done the test of time. They have been in business forever. There is always a line, which is a good indicator. Whatever ther doing is working.

I LOVE BO'S ICE CREAM. Yes, I'm shouting. This is my favorite ice cream shop in the world. I've been going there since I was a 3-year old kid and they never disappoint.

We really didn't find Bo's ice cream to be a good value or high quality on my last visit. Based on this, I would pick many other Tampa ice cream offerings over it.

Bo’s is a staple of the community 👌🏼 the pricing is a lil higher than some places but that’s because of the high quality and amount and generous portions. They have the best pup cups too!

Best ice cream place in Tampa, period. Prices are reasonable and large, delicious portions. Most ice cream places rip you off these days. Thank you Bo’s!!!
