Ice Cream Shops near Altoona

“I went here the other day and my gosh their staff is amazing! I had this sweet young girl take my order and you would’ve thought she’d have years of experience in customer service! I asked how long she had worked there and she said a little over a month. However they are training those kids they are doing amazing!“

“Had a very helpful and patient young gentleman who helped me pick some delicious 😋 chocolates for my wife and child. They also had some tasty looking Gelato that I will have to go back and try next time!

Super helpful about explanation of types and fillings and was able to suggest good options based on preferences and limitations. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

Only downside is it's a little tricky to find. I bet it losses traffic being across from the burger and Chinese joints across the way.“

“Wait was a bit excessive given I ordered online...(guessing they waited to make food til I arrived tho so it would be warm) aside from that the staff was friendly and helpful. Ice cream and food were on point. Never been disappointed by a trip to DQ“

“Ice cream is so good! Definitely 5 stars“

“The girls at Sweet Swirls today were so accommodating! We brought in, from Rock Creek, 12 residents in at once. They listened, took their time, and made sure every order was right. We appreciate it so much!“

“Great little place. Fun selections and very tidy.“

“We were out at an outdoor event in Des Moines. I took notice of an ice cream truck that was not familiar to me. Plenty of flavors to choose from and I was served promptly and with a smile. I could not believe that I could get the same homemade , creamery taste from a food truck ! It was amazing and my only regret is that I shared mine . Best I have had in Iowa and worth every penny , especially on a hot Iowa day!“

“Those arctic swirls are the best. My favorite is da cookie dough.“

“Best ice cream in the Des Moines area.“
