50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Barrington

“SweetSpot is great. I appreciate the staffs and managers kindness to me even though I have autism and their food is amazing and really good. Owner Doreen is very nice. The restaurant is in good condition. Amazing frozen ice. Must come back. 10/10.“

“Froyo is Froyo, but I wanted to write a review because of the pomegranate flavor available here. I’ve never seen pomegranate Froyo before and I thought it was delicious. A unique flavor that you won’t find anywhere else. I thought the prices were pretty good. I see other reviews complaining about the price or upcharges or no samples policy, but I don’t feel like it’s too outlandish to do things that way. They have the lowest price per weight that I’ve seen in a very long time. The color changing spoons are a nice touch as well.

Overall, I will be back next time I’m in the area during the warm seasons.“

“We love this new place in town! My kids LOVE ❤️ Clean and really cool environment to hang out at to grab a drink and chat with friends. Free amazing smells lol 😂 Smoothies are delicious. PB mocha is my favorite. The bowls are so good too packed with goodness. The shots taste fresh and healthy as well!!!! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“We ordered a classic cone with mango, and Vito shaped it into a rose right in front of us, petal by petal. My son couldn't take his eyes off it. He held that cone like a trophy and was almost too impressed to eat it. Almost. Ana was just as friendly, patient and smiling the whole time, and both of them treated a little kid like a real customer instead of rushing us along. That kind of service is rare at a mall counter.

The mango tastes like real fruit: bright, smooth, and not overly sweet. You can tell there's nothing artificial in it. The menu also offers unlimited flavors on any size, so next time we'll mix a few.

The shop itself looks great. Stone walls, wood beams, warm lighting, and Halloween decorations up right now, which my son loved. The display case is clean and well organized, and there are macarons, crepes, waffles, and coffee drinks if gelato isn't your thing.

A classic cone is $8.80 before tax. Not cheap, but for the quality, the presentation, and the service, it's fair. I'd pay it again without thinking.

Vito and Ana, thank you for making my son's day. We'll be back.“

“The Greatest Custard In The World in texture, taste and freshness! Greg is a genius of a restauranteur and the nicest guy you're ever going to meet!“

“Many Oat milk ice cream options, and so many delicious flavors for ice cream, shakes, sundaes and shaved ice. Love that your dog gets to come into the restaurant and gets free ice cream. Chairs to sit inside or outside.“

“I am SOOOO lucky to live right across the street from this ice cream shop. It’s a bit more pricey than some places but the cost reflects the incredible quality of their premium ice creams. My faves are Peanut butter cookie dough; Coconut chip; Fat Elvis & Zanzibar (a rich dark chocolate). There’s a flavor for everyone. I think there’s like 50 different kinds. Open from mid-March to mid-October & on the last day of the season, you can buy whatever is left over. I got a whole tub one October for about $50–it lasted the whole winter! Yummmmm🥰“

“Comet Frozen Custard is one of the best local spots in Rolling Meadows! The frozen custard is always fresh, creamy, and packed with flavor. They have a great variety of daily flavors and toppings, so there’s always something new to try.

The staff is consistently friendly, the service is quick, and the atmosphere has that classic neighborhood ice cream stand feel that keeps people coming back. Whether you’re stopping in for a cone, sundae, shake, or just a coffee, everything is made with care.

It’s a family-owned business that truly cares about its customers and community. If you’re looking for a great dessert spot in the northwest suburbs, Comet Frozen Custard is absolutely worth the visit. Highly recommended!“

“The people working are very nice, and they will make whatever you want if they have the ingredients. Ankit the owner is very community oriented. every time I walk in there I'm just visiting some friends.“

“Mmmmm Good Stuff! Best frozen dessert ever“

“If you haven’t tried this hidden gem, GO! Great food, great prices, friendly owners. Everything is fresh and delicious! In my opinion, they blow away the local competition.“

“Mmmmmmmm! We love the Creamery! Many great memories here.🙂❤️ Great ice cream and the affogato is so good!“

“I absolutely love having this boba shop so close to our home! I’ve been here a couple of times now, and Beck and Asem have always been so kind, genuine, and welcoming. You can really tell that they care about their customers and genuinely want you to enjoy your drink. They even take the time to ask if you like it and make sure you’re happy with it, which I really appreciate.

It’s also so nice to have a small, friendly local place within walking distance. I’ve really enjoyed my visits here, and the people who work here make the experience even better. They’re both such lovely people, and I’m happy to support them. Highly recommend stopping by! 🧋❤“

“We were so sad to hear the store close in McHennry! It was our family tradition to visit you as well as my child. We always make it priority to visit you! While visiting for a week it’s normal to visit 2-3 times before we go!!“

“Changing my review here! I said I never be back to this location but my normal one was closed due to something, I got the back to school line up and OMG every cookie was just amazing Much love you guys definitely are doing amazing. Much better than 2 weeks ago! You maybe my weekly Crumbl Monday a good one.“

Great Chai, Delicious Treats, and Excellent Service!

Had a great experience at Chai Corner! We ordered chai, a brownie, and puff pastry, and everything was enjoyable. The chai was satisfying, and the snacks made for a perfect combination.

A special shout-out to Nawaz and Subhan for their excellent service. They were friendly, attentive, and made sure we had a great experience.

Definitely a place worth visiting if you're looking for good chai, tasty snacks, and welcoming service. Keep up the great work! Highly recommended! ☕👏“

“Yummy 😋 Good ice cream 🍦“

“El señor atendiendo es muy amable la agua Fresca de guayava que me recomendo estaba deliciosa 😋“

“Muy buen cervisio muy amables les doy un 10“

“This is a small ice cream shop with some very good, but also some very strange flavors (like Durian or Black Sesame). They gladly give out samples, so make sure you try a flavor out before buying.

The sizes are on the small size for the price. It was close to $40 for 4 of us to get cones.

The place also has been redecorated for Initial D instead of Doraemon.“

“They don't have dine in but they do have seats to wait for your order. The food was really good and they prepared it exactly as I requested when I ordered online. I have been looking for a Chinese restaurant for over a year since I moved out this way and finally found one!“

“Great for families- large play area and super clean. Large variety of ice cream, sorbet and popsicles as well as fresh fruit treats. I had the coconut ice cream and it was fantastic. Super friendly staff-“

“This is my son, he’s a Luries Children hospital patient! MUNDELEIN, Dairy Queen continues to be a wonderful part of our community not just for the great treats, but for the difference they make. They support Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and help families at Lurie Children’s Hospital through Miracle Treat Day.
As a Lurie Children’s family, this cause is especially meaningful to us. Knowing that something as simple as buying a BLIZZARD Treat can help provide life-changing care for kids.
Thank you, Dairy Queen, for giving back and supporting children and families when they need it most. If you’re looking for a reason to treat yourself on July 30, this is it! ❤️🍦“

“Nice little spot with great outdoor seating and a cozy little interior. The board games available inside is a nice touch. Ordered the slushy and it was pretty solid. However, I would not recommend ordering any of the sundaes other than maybe the banana split. Portion sizes for those are a bit small and I found the price tag of nearly 8 dollars to be unreasonable especially for soft serve ice cream. Besides that though jts a great spot and I would definitely recommend it!“

“Usually great service and people, but you guys missed the mark tonight. The delivery person outside tried to give me at least 3 different orders that weren’t ours, and when we got home the chicken nuggets were missing the sauce, and the chili was missing the toppings and sour cream. Not a great outing tonight.“

“Everything tasted great tonight but for some reason the bun just fell apart...“

“Amazing ice cream :) great place to get a scoop“

“I always order my favorite grilled cheese..the best and sweet potato fries that I can’t get anywhere else. Van’s has the BEST CUSTARD and I love the butter pecan! Everything is amazing and the staff is so sweet and kind!“

“awesome awesome ice cream“

“I love this store my family and I have been going to this store since I was a little kid. I got my wife a custom Ice Cream cake for her Birthday and she loved it. Highly Recommend!“

“My 2 1/2 year old grandson and I had lunch there today. The staff treated us with kindness and good service! We also enjoyed the beautiful fish pond!“

“This was my first time visiting this place. I must say, The customer service, food, and atmosphere was way above what I was expecting. I usually do not like custard ice cream(I have tried 4 places before here), my partner said just try it. But before we finished our food, I was given a sample and I loved it. I don't know what they do differently. But it was excellent. I'm definitely making sure when I visit again this Culver's will be my first stop for food.“

“My go to Dairy queen on my way back home after eating spicy mexican food. Extremely friendly staff and always treated with a smile. Can’t forget that one time when Chinar went over and above serving my grandma who had issues with limited mobility. Chinar made sure to bring the blizzard for her in the car and said hi. It’s our family’s go to DQ. Highly recommended.“

“ordered small concrete mixer.. asked for chocolate custard with Reese's peanut butter cups but received a medium size cup of plain custard“

“The food was good. I ordered 2 grilled chicken sandwiches at around 9pm from the drive through. The order took not even 5 minutes and it was so good. You could tell everything was fresh and of high quality. Also, both the drive through window girl and the gentleman that walked out my order to me were nice. Good job Culver's!“

“Excelente servicio muy amables y todo muy bueno 💫“

“Well, this is one of my favorites, I know many but this is the one I like the most.

1.- You can order online and you can pick up
2.- you sign up I know their rewards and you can have free ice cream.

They have an impressive variety of ice creams and popsicles, when you enter you will crave everything….

The last time I ordered some dorillocos... I'm a little harsh with the rating and I give them a 3, they could include lemon, cucumber and more cueritos, they almost didn't have them.

The ice creams pffff are a delight just like the horchata water.

Parking: Well, it's not very big but cars come and go constantly, which means you won't wait more than 3 minutes to find your box.

Kid-friendliness: Nothing dangerous and a place that will surely fascinate you.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp so they can access“

“I absolutely love Kiki’s Cotton Candy! World’s best lemonade is an understatement. Honestly the nicest people too. Try everything- it’s all delicious!“

“It has a very simple menu that packs a lot of flavor to the meal... Mmmmmmmm😋👍🏼 This was our first time, but not to be our last. We traveled about 1 hour and 40 minutes to discover I want this in my life. The buns were so good, & that cheese sauce...Mmmmmm😋👍🏼“

“Los mejores tamales que eh comido en mucho tiempo y el champurrado igual , muy buenos !! espero que no cambien su forma de hacerlos“

“If you’re looking for a slice of heaven in a cone, look no further than la Michoacána paleteria y tortilleria This charming little gem is more than just an ice cream shop, it’s an experience that makes you feel like a kid again, no matter your age.

I cannot recommend this ice cream shop enough. It’s the kind of place that turns a good day into an amazing one. If you’re an ice cream lover and let’s be honest, who isn’t?!, this shop is an absolute must-visit!!

Five stars isn’t enough – this place deserves ten!“
