50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Westchase

“Always one for treats after dinner, this place hit the spot. The service was amazing and they really are so nice and patient. I have never had custard before so it was nice that they took the time to explain things and let me sample some of the tasty flavors. A cute shop tucked in the middle of a town square that offered indoor and outdoor seating. I definitely recommend this place and I really enjoyed the Buckeye Madness!“

“I really like this place! It's in a great spot in midtown, surrounded by lots of good food options. And if you're craving dessert, Ben & Jerry's is nearby. They've got plenty of choices, the service is great, and the atmosphere is nice. The ice cream is a bit pricey, but that's pretty normal for this area.“

“I really wasn’t expecting anything more from this place other than decent ice cream, and a sugar rush but boy was I wrong.what really sets this ice cream spot apart is the attention to detail. From the beautiful presentation to the friendly and knowledgeable staff, every aspect of the experience was top-notch. It's clear that they take pride in what they do and want to ensure that each customer has a memorable and delicious experience, I highly recommend this spot.“

“Great energy from Rodney and staff! The food is amazing. You can taste the difference in the ingredients. They truly take the time and go to great lengths to source the best ingredients. This isn’t regular fruit you can find at Publix and you feel different eating this. There’s actual nutrients in this. Ice cream one can feel good about eating loads of. And let’s not forget the Sea Moss! Great source of iodine which everyone needs. In my research on my patient population I’ve found everyone is iodine deficient. People can correct this by visiting this establishment and asking for the Sea Moss. Your health will improve dramatically and you will feel more energy.“

“Stella was absolutely amazing and helpful for my first of many experiences to follow. She absolutely puts in the effort to show her customer service skills, even including two sample donuts while we waited for our order to be put together. 36 donuts was more than we expected, but our eyes were bigger than our stomachs. Thank you so much for this great experience. We will be back!!!“

“This place is kind of hidden in plain sight. I took my cousins there for the first time and it was such an awesome experience. The guy is super nice and it’s so fun watching him make these delicious rolled up frozen cream wheels. It’s definitely worth the trip over there. We will be back! Keep it sweet!“

“Tanya & Matt's Ice Creamiest had their ice cream cart in our wedding and their ice cream was delicious! Our guests could not stop talking about how good the ice cream was. The way they decorated the cart was super cute & we loved everything about it. 10/10!“

“The Cake Girl Tampa made my baby shower extra sweet with their beautifully crafted cake and cupcakes. From the delicious flavors to the stunning designs, they exceeded my expectations. Their attention to detail and excellent service made the celebration unforgettable. Highly recommend!“

“Wow! This place is a hidden gym. Stephanie deserves outstanding recognition, I come from NYC and never found an authentic ice cream shoppe like this one. Dairy free options are delicious as well. If you are in the Tampa Bay Area please support her!Dietary restrictions: Vegan options and Dairy Free.Kid-friendliness: Every kid loves ice cream.“

“Gotta give it to ‘em. Not the thickest ice cream, but one of the best set of flavors you’ll get. I got the hazelnut and guava flavors for a 2 scoop waffle cone. It was great! Waffle cone isn’t dense. Ice cream is generally lighter, and the atmosphere is cool.“

“Chill Bros has some of the best ice cream in Tampa at every location you go to. To put it in perspective, I don’t even really like ice cream and find myself here regularly.Their seasonal peppermint flavor and the bees knees ones are my personal favorite right now. And the Malty Millionaire always.The staff was so nice here and made us a waffle cone slice real quick after they had ran out for the night.Dietary restrictions: Didn’t seem to have any non-dairy options.Parking: They share a parking garage with the venue next door which is large. Most of the spots were taken by valet so we didn’t get a spot and had to park illegally in the cut since we were going to be quick. This was on a weekday too.Kid-friendliness: It’s ice cream, it’s kid friendly.“

“Stumbled upon this in our dinner out in Tampa. My kids and I loved the yogurt and the owners were so friendly and offered us samples since it was our first time there. Will be back again when on this side of town! Thank you for the pleasant first time experience at Yogurt “

“My first time having Jeremiah's was a lovely experience. The gelatis my family and I got were all delicious and the employees were very personable and helpful with our rambunctious group excited to try something new. We will be back 10/10“

“Really fluffy waffles with perfectly crispy edges. I went with a create your own option where I got dark chocolate filling and a variety of fresh fruit, with coconut shavings. Everything was fresh and delicious. I accompanied the waffle with a cappuccino which came with a small sample of vanilla gelato in a tiny cone. The perfect compliment to the cuppucino and you don’t even need any additional sugar. Friendly staff, quiet and clean environment. Will definitely be back to try a savory waffle soon!“

“Growing up a Twistee Treat kid, I was excited to stop by for a sweet treat for my day's productivity. Isaac let me take my time figuring out with all the options exactly what I wanted to enjoy. It was soooo good! So many options to choose from. Nice patio atmosphere. Thanks Isaac and Twistee Treat. You're sweet.“

“When I first say their post on instagram I knew I had to try it. I love that they have new flavors everyday it’s something new. Since I was diagnosed with a disease that causes me to have high cholesterol I was trying to find foods that also cure my sweet tooth but not so high in fats and sugars and this place really cures that. I can say majority of the time that I do go there most of the girls are on their laptop not great look but I also used to go to college and know what that’s like to do my homework at anytime I can but it’s every time I do come in they have it out and sometimes it’s not the greatest customer service because sometimes they just say hey and then go straight back to the lap top instead of engaging with customers.“

“Nestled in the heart of south Tampa, Desserts by Toffee to Go is a true gem for those with a sweet tooth. From the moment you walk through the door, you're greeted with warmth and friendliness that sets the tone for a delightful experience. The service here is top-notch--always friendly, helpful, and ready to guide you through their tempting treats. The shop itself is always clean, with cozy comfortable corners and seating areas perfect for indulging in your favorite desserts surrounded by friends. But perhaps the most charming feature of Desserts by Toffee to Go is the sweet mural adorning its exterior wall, a LOVE-ly message that practically begs for an Instagram selfie. Now, let's talk about the star of the show: the ooey gooey toffee bar. Words can hardly do justice to the divine combination of buttery toffee and that sweet, cakey bar. But here's the secret that takes it to a whole other level: serving it a la mode. Yes, you heard that right. Picture this irresistible treat topped with your choice of their many ice cream flavors. I chose the salted caramel praline ice cream, and it was incredible. Whether you're a Tampa local or just passing through, Desserts by Toffee to Go is a must-visit destination for anyone with a sweet tooth. Indulge in their heavenly treats, snap a selfie by the mural, and prepare to be transported to dessert paradise.“

“Wow, this little place packs a big punch for tasty treats. Didn't think Gelato mixed with frozen ice sounded like a good idea. But I couldn't have been more wrong. I had cherry ice with vanilla Gelato swirled with butter cookie crumbs. My God that was good. I'm craving it now as I write this. Do yourself a favor and try this place out.“

“Fantastic ice cream parlor decorated in a 1950’s style with a nice outdoor seating area. The butter pecan and birthday cake ice cream was delicious. Extensive menu with lots of flavors/toppings to choose from. They have a drive thru available as well if you prefer not to dine in.“

“I love this place! So happy to see a family-owned local restaurant. My friends and I love to order from here, especially because of the amount of options there are. The food is always fast, hot, and delicious, every time! Absolutely will continue to eat here and recommend this place to friends and family!“

“Incredible culinary experience. Best service you could ever imagine, elote was so good and they have great deals all the time. Venezuela and Curacao baseball was playing on the TV. U have 2 go, you will regret it for the rest of your life if you don't.“

“You have to learn how to use the machine but it really keeps everything in order. Service is great here and I recommend going here in lieu of any dessert at International Mall, except maybe whiskey cake, and you should still come here after. Wish they had more flavors but it still doesn't change the fact that I go here at least once a week and bring all my friends.“

“Was on a trip and decided to stop by this twisted treat site. I was greeted by a young lady named Sheila who was very sweet and angelic. I was indecisive on what to get so I asked for her opinion and she gave me the best dessert ever! This site is very lucky to have such a respectful, caring, and friendly young lady! Will never forget my experience at this twistee treat thanks to Sheila !!“

“Cute little ice cream shop that I stopped at on my way home from the beach. They had sooo many flavors to choose from that it was hard to make up my mind. The guy there was nice and let me sample the flavors. I was satisfied with the flavor and I got and the scoop was big. Also, they were very kind and gave my dog a treat cup for free with whipped cream and peanut butter which he enjoyed very much“

“I have finally gotten my diet cleaned up by taking out almost all sugar. Which is healthy, but sad. Not anymore! This ice cream is very low in calories and carbs, but who cares unless it's also delicious? Which it totally is. I had a small bowl of the blueberry cheesecake, which is actually a very ample serving, and it was so good. And it was completely satisfying. No need to have any other treats or snacks the rest of the day. Definitely recommend.“

“Always love local and homemade ice cream. We were in town for spring training baseball and joined some friends who live locally for dinner in the area. Afterwards they took us here as it’s their favorite ice cream shop. We tried some of their flavors and agree it’s good stuff. I had The Boss which is a vanilla base with brownies and peanut butter and my wife had pistachio. Lots of other interesting flavors. Definitely recommend!!“

“Natalia was absolutely AMAZING!!! Not only were we greeted with a beautiful smile, but she was extremely patient, polite, friendly, and just all around wonderful to deal with!! She explained what she was doing to my son and made the ice cream in a way where he could watch. Her attitude and friendly demeanor was what made this trip worth it!!! My son and I both picked the cotton candy ice cream and it is absolutely delicious“

“They have the best popsicles! They have the usual ones you would think but also some interesting combinations that always taste great. I suggest the mango mojito or the raspberry lemonade! Never had an issue with the employees including Seth who was there today.“

“I remember coming here in Summer 22 and I loved the atmosphere of this small store, there is a large choice of ice cream flavors. (As a French I came back on this page to see pics of this place, I’m nostalgic ? Here we don’t have that much ice cream flavors and they’re not as fancy!)Kid-friendliness: Lots of choice for kids!“

“I ❤ Andy's Frozen Custard! I'm from Springfield MO where Andy's originated from. I'm so glad I can now get this amazing Custard in Florida! The Ozark Turtle Sundae is unbelievable with creamy caramel, smooth hot fudge, and crunchy roasted pecans! Andy's is the BEST!“

“Clean friendly fast service Amazing cookies. Warning though- They are very rich and very sweet. One cookie will last me through 3 sweet cravings. To me, this justifies the price, which is a little high for a cookie. On this visit we had their chocolate chunk with sea salt, key lime and pink sugar. They have a cannoli one which I have been looking forward to catching.. The cookie selection varies daily. A box of 4 is just under $15 before tip. The cookies are pretty big, about the diameter of a grapefruit, but don't quote me on that!? Enjoy!Parking: Shopping center parking.Wheelchair accessibility: This establishment is wheelchair accessible.“

“Good GRIEF, why is this place here?!?! I'm SO glad I don't have a location near me. The staff here was AMAZING. I placed my order, and they were SO QUICK to make my cookies. I was LITERALLY in and out in less than 15 mins! It took me longer than that to figure out which cookies I wanted!! Lol!!! I absolutely LOVE the cookies here! They are HUGE cookies big enough to share (but I'm not). The flavor and texture of the cookie is SO good. If you've never had one, ya need to. They are FABULOUS!“

“5 Stars with two important notes:1. If you order the “concrete” it comes in a plastic cup with sharp edges underneath the rim. If you try to lick spillage, you might regret it (complete design flaw that needs fixing).2. The concrete (custard with fixin’s) tastes amazing, but you can only order one size online. THIS MEANS if you create your own (definitely the best option in theory) and you want several items in your concrete, instead of providing a cup of appropriate size, they will literally just overflow the cup with the requested mixin’s ?…It’s difficult to explain how delicious their treats are, and just how unintelligent their business model is. My suggestions:1. Keep food items the same.2. Offer larger cups for individuals that want to create their own treats with your food stuffs.3. Don’t get closed down/go into bankruptcy by thinking it’s easier/smarter to remove the option for customers to create their own variations of your treats.4. Suggestions 1-3 should be read in conjunction with each other and not read or enforced independently.5. You are welcome ?… ?“

“Great place, very clean and the atmosphere is very friendly and makes you smile. The attendant was super sweet. My mom and I had the strawberry cheesecake ice cream on a waffle cone. It was super delicious. I also got a brownie to take to my husband. I will be coming back for sure.“

“Visited here with my kids and we loved it! My daughter got a Vanilla cone with sprinkles and my son got a chocolate cup with sprinkles and loved it! The service was just as fantastic as the ice cream, Dylan was really nice! The outside was very cleaned and well maintained l, making a great atmosphere to enjoy a treat with family!“

“My son and I love to stop by Rita’s for the delicious ice and ice cream. He has dropped his ice cream cone a few times and the employees always replace it with no problem. The Manager, Gina, goes above and beyond. She asks about our day, is always very sweet and helpful and even gave my son a little stuffed Ice Guy.“

“They never let me down, at least at this location. I think ONCE they accidentally put cheese on my burger, bit the food is always fresh and the ice cream is always delicious (unfortunately it melts really fast... bright side I get to enjoy it before my meal, downside I don't get to it enjoy after my meal lol)Showed up early to my curbside order and they started to panic saying it wasn't ready and won't be ready soon, which kinda puzzled me bc I knew I was 10-15 minutes early and definitely was not expecting it ready before then. Feel bad for any worker that has to deal with those people“

“Really great place. A little pricey, but one ice cream is enough for 2 people or maybe even 3 people to share. And it comes in a cute glass mason jar that you get to keep. They have a convenient rinsing station to rinse out your jar after and also rinse those sticky hands. Good quality shakes/doughs/ice creams. Would recommend for a special little treat!*Brookie Dough Batter pictured*Vegetarian options: They have a no dairy one, but I'm not sure what toppings it includes. Just saw the vegan friendly item on the menu“

“1st timer, was really impressed with the service, quality of food, & the cleanliness of the restaurant. We were late arriving to Tampa for a concert, so the quickness & efficiency of the staff was greatly appreciated! Not really fast food people, but we will definitely be back! Thank you!Parking: Valet parking if you choose“

“My co-worker bought me this amazing concoction. It's the Tres leches cake and boy-o-boy is it awesome. Just make sure you check nutritional information before eating the whole thing it might not fit into your Macros, but it is absolutely delectable. It is almost as good as the homemade stuff that costs like $30 a pan and gets stolen from the walk-in at my work. Good job on this one my spirits are up along with my glucose levels.“

“Take out order...coleslaw was omitted from fish plattereven though the receipt indicated coleslaw.Check order before leaving store...place was slammed with Friday Lent fish eaters.Otherwise, good as expected.Vegetarian options: Harvest burger...contains cheese.Wheelchair accessibility: ADA Compliant.“

“I've been coming here for about a year and get a poke bowl from here at least a couple times a month. I've been to other poke bowl places in the area and it just doesn't compare to this place. This place is authentic, fresh, and so yummy!! Recently I've switched from rice to greens (gluten and grain free), and the poke bowls are still just as good. I've never had a problem with customer service either. On top of that, they're so quick!! The three times I've been to a different poke shop in Tampa the service was so slow. I felt like their employees were new and not knowledgeable about their work area. Not this place, same quick and nice service each and every time! Also, compared to other places, this place gives plenty of the filling and toppings, like the bowl actually gets filled which I really appreciate.“

“This place has the best açaí bowls! It’s really affordable, and the portions are decent. The workers are also super nice and made the store feel like a lovely atmosphere. Definitely referring my friends and family to this place.Side note: I had to personally ask Melinda, Hailey, and Allie for their names because they are such wonderful workers and had such good energy.“

“I loved the North Atlantic Cod Dinner. the fish was so white and had a very mild taste. I substituted mashed potatoes & gravy instead of FF & broccoli w/cheese instead of Cole slaw. all i can say is Delicious!!! I am going back again tomorrow for a repeat of that awesome meal. Wish they had Culver's in NYS.“

“Really cute cafe in the westshore mall!I didn’t catch the name of the employee who helped us(I think he was the owner), but he was so nice! The cafe is super cute, I love the furniture and decor, it’s a super cute little tucked away cafe.The coffee is super good and well priced (:“

“A chocolate vanilla swirl with rainbow sprinkles is my all time favorite . I used to get it at our little icecream spot in my hometown up North. So it’s always nostalgic and such a treat. Dairy Kurt delivered. It was delicious and had the right amount of sprinkles. ☺️ I’m so glad it’s part of Main St Safety Harbor and will be back. The service was super cheerful and helpful too!“

“I received a gift card so I bought $10 worth of ice cream. The homemade flavors with real ingredients and lots of cream make for uniquely delicious ice cream. Don't get me wrong; I love BR's bubblegum cones, but this stuff is old school natural food. The waffle cones are great, too.“

“Run, don’t walk!!!! I’ve often walked by this ice cream shop but never stopped until today. I am so happy with my decision, and cannot wait to come back. There are so many great options to choose from, and they even have some for all of my Vegan people. I went with the triple scoop of mango cheesecake on a waffle cone…. OMG it was one of the best I’ve had. The atmosphere is welcoming and staff are amazinnnnng! Looking forward to swinging by again.“

“I adore soft-serve and this is the best I've had. The woman who runs the place is very kind and professional. There are lots of flavors to choose from. It really is true that the ice cream is far healthier than regular ice cream. Sugar bothers my system and this ice cream doesn't have all that sugar so I feel just great, even after a very large serving, lol. This is definitely my go-to place for ice cream!“

“I came into Froyo today with my 2 children after eating at mothers and the service was amazing. My two children are very indecisive but they made sure to tell them that was totally normal.These two girls were the sweetest people and very welcoming. Name both ava?“
