50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Carol Stream

“shout out to Jason! made ordering easy and the food came out fast! my kids were happy to get the ice cream so quickly!“

“Highly recommend coming here. Their ice cream and paletas are delicious. I had the lime ice cream my husband had the mango. P.s. bought cookies and cream and strawberry paletas for the road. Great customer service.“

“Stopped by last Sunday and the food was great and the service was actually quite fast BUT, it seemed like only two young ladies were running the whole place. They seemed very overwhelmed/wary. The staff did good job, but management should definitely consider hiring more support😓....“

“Best ice cream ever!!!! I am an ice cream snob when I’m on vacation. I have to have it every day and I walked miles to that ice cream parlor this week the owner and the boy Jake that worked there was such awesome people too. I will definitely be back. I went tonight because I’m leaving in the morning sorted caramel chunk.!!!! you will not be disappointed“

“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.“

“Vegan marshmallows & Fantastic flavors! My favorite is the Flight: banana cream pie, This &$#! Got Serious, rhubarb crumble and Heaps of Love Yep 4‼️ Try the most unique & best tasting ice cream anywhere served by the friendliest and most welcoming staff! Head to Dinis!“

“I was really happy with my visit. The customer service was really great, sorry I do not know the name of the nice young lady that took my order. I was really happy that you guys have Blue Moon!! It’s my favorite flavor, and I will be back to come get some more. 5/5 stars ❤️❤️❤️“

“Such a great experience! The churros, pesto chicken sandwich, Marzipan coffee, and Nutella and strawberry sundae were so good. The staff was so nice and the place is so cute for the kids or a cute little date!“

“I like crumbl. However, as someone who competed in the Scripps national spelling bee, I just can't ignore the fact that crumble is spelled wrong. I mean, who really knows why they just left of the E. Like is it supposed to be CRUMB L like do I want my cookies to be in Crumbs and then take the L. Im just confused. I would really appreciate some feedback.“

“A FRIENDLY PLACE, WHERE EVERYONE IS WELCOME AND CAN FEEL AT HOME. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS FAMILY STYLE AND VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT THEIR PRODUCT'S. ALSO WILL ADJUST ORDER'S TO SATISFY CUSTOMER'S PREFERENCE'S. IN OTHER WORD'S HAVE YOUR ORDER YOUR WAY. ALWAYS A SMILE AND A HAPPY HELLO. WHERE ELSE CAN YOU GO WHEN YOUR DAY ISN'T GOING YOUR WAY TO PUT ON A SMILE?“

“I have yet to try an ice cream there I don't like! I suggest the White Chocolate Salty Oatmeal Cookie....so good! Their ice cream pies are delicious and high quality as well. You must try their sparkle cone too-nothing like it anywhere else.“

“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.“

“Solid italian food. I've only tried their pastas and they were very good. Good quality chicken and servings are plentiful. The only suggestion I would make to the restaurant is to better set up their online ordering systems and encourage customers to use them versus calling in orders. Also, allow take out ordering on holidays such as new years eve when you're open.“

“my favorite ice cream shop downtown naperville! I love the cookie dough! so yummmy!!!“

“Came in early afternoon on 12/16 and was greeted by Caitlyn, who welcomed me with a big smile and let me know she was happy to help if I needed anything. I was looking to get a birthday cake for my daughter, but the size available on display was a bit too large. When I asked if there were any smaller options, she explained that she had just made one and it would be ready in about 10 minutes if I didn’t mind waiting.

She even let it freeze a little longer since it was freshly made, added the candy toppings, and kindly offered to write a small birthday message on it. The entire experience was friendly, fast, and extremely courteous.

Highly recommend this location, and I would absolutely return—especially if Caitlyn is working. Her exceptional service truly went above and beyond.“

“Sundaes, blizzards and frozen drinks! Yum!“

“I recently ordered a custom birthday cake from this Dairy Queen, and I couldn't be happier! The owner-ALOK is incredibly helpful, kind, and so creative with the cake designs. They really took the time to make sure the cake was perfect for the celebration. Not only did it look amazing, but the ice cream was the best I’ve had—fresh and delicious. If you need a cake for a special occasion, I highly recommend coming here!“

“I love it. If you’re looking to have a party, contact us! Why? Because we carry the Jeni’s brand ice cream on our ice cream bike which allows you to enjoy it at home with friends and family. You book, and we do the rest.“

“The service here is amazing. The people here, especially Rose, are nice and caring. I like that I can get a cold or hot beverage. The food is great, too. And it's just a great place to sit for awhile. Very welcoming place.“

“Mmmmm Good Stuff! Best frozen dessert ever“

“My fav is simple a large red rasp sundae!!! One of my fav things to eat!“

“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🥰“

“I visited for the first time today as I just happened up on this Place while
making a U-turn and I am very picky. However the owner was very accommodating and made my drink to order without any rush at the window and it was absolutely perfect. Nothing but good vibes and customer service all around. I definitely recommend.
SUPPORT SMALL BUSINESSES AND GET A GREAT COFFEE!!“

“I visited Cocomero in Downers Grove with my wife for the first time and we were delighted. The standout Taro milk tea was rich and creamy, blending earthy sweetness perfectly, while the self-serve frozen yogurt bar, packed with fresh toppings, offered creative fun and flavor. Friendly staff and a cozy, welcoming vibe made our visit memorable—and a great shared treat.“

“great selection. they also have mini doggy ice creams in the fridge. nice staff“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

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! ☕👏“

“The butter pecan was amazing, also the 🍓/🍌 cup was delicious.“

“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.“

“Went here to try their famous ice cream rolls, especially after my friend had vouched so much for their Oreo ice cream rolls. Definitely felt worth giving it a shot!

I tried two combinations: Strawberry & Vanilla and Rose & Coconut. Both were interesting, but I personally loved the Strawberry & Vanilla much more, the flavors were fresh, creamy, and really enjoyable.

If you are a fan of ice cream rolls, definitely worth a try.“

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

“loveeeee this place, recently discovered it and is now my new favorite! I live 20 minutes away and make the drive haha. My favorite is the mango smoothie and i love how natural tasting it is unlike other places where u can tell its very artificial. The boba is sometimes a bit hard and other times it’s the perfect consistency but i have gone an hour to 30 minutes before closing so maybe that’s why but honestly the flavor totally makes up for it and i don’t mind a chewy boba. They also sell really cute squishies for a good price and the people working there are really nice ! definitely recommend“

“I was waiting for my cookies when I observed a worker who was rolling dough. She stepped away from the dough table, and went on her personal phone, then immediately went back to touching the dough. Wearing the same pair of gloves the entire time. I made a comment that she should probably switch gloves if she is going to touch her personal phone and then peoples food. Just wanted to be sure it doesn’t happen again. That’s gross.“

“Amazing gelato and great staff. They aren't pet friendly so we were standing outside and eating our desserts and they brought us water for our puppy. We also got some free delicious cookies for our group at the end of the night. Will definitely go back!“

“*Edited Review 9/28-
My husband and I contacted and spoke directly with the owner regarding our concerns regarding our visit as well as customer service received at our recent trip to this venue.

The owner took our concerns seriously and stated they will continue to train staff to provide much better customer service to customers. We will be visiting again in the future and can't wait to see the postive changes made!

(*First post-1 star) The staff @ Roselle location has terrible customer service!
Having previous customer service history, I've never treated anyone this way!
First time visiting, the girls were gossiping behind counter -looked annoyed when we asked questions &also kept rolling their eyes when asked questions.. which was only a few to get an idea of what we wanted to order.
Very rude & unprofessional! I think the person's name was delilah, that's the name our receipt listed.
We unfortunately spent $16 dollars, we will not be returning until you fully train staff to have better customer service skills !
We Will be sharing our experience with family and friends.“

“Lydia was so helpful getting us started on our first froyo experience!“

“They have and make the best fruit smoothies ever!“

“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.“

“Love the ice cream. I love variety of flavors.“

“Visited Fishers location - so glad I did! Non-dairy lemon chill was pleasantly creamy (expected it to be tart like sorbet, but it was mild and delicious!) - and non-dairy caramel was amazing! So nice to have non-dairy flavors with flare! My son had cake batter and crazy cookie - loved them both! Our new go-to for ice cream - thanks, Eiffel Waffle!😎“

“My burger was done incorrectly when I went through the drive thru but didn’t realize it till I went home. When I returned the manager gave me a free pint of custard for the mistake. Amazing customer service! Keep up the great work!“

“Glad you’re changing to Coke products. My family of 5, prefer coke over Pepsi. Pepsi is too sweet.“

“Very clean store with a hand-sanitizing station with great variety of flavors and toppings. Delicious frozen yogurt and friendly staff.“

“Muy buena👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“Such a fabulous place from the minute you walk in! Perfect place to swing by after a great meal downtown or shopping. There is such an awesome assortment, easy to try something new every visit and never be dissatisfied! Everyone is friendly, and it just makes for a really fun experience.“

“I haven’t found “chocomania” anywhere else ❤️“

“Standard Culvers. Nothing special about this location. Portions are ok. Average wait time at drive thru.“

“Delicious Ice Cream, Great staff!. We stopped at the drive through at the Liberty Drive in Wheaton Location. We were picking up a few blizzards, and two of them were off menu requests (older/retired recipes). The manager (owner?), Rerish, took great care of us and gave us very good recommendations. He made sure we got what we were looking for and shared the recipes so the recipients would know what to ask for next time. The two blizzards were delivered, and the kids LOVED them. Thanks so much! We will be back.“

“I love the Creamery in Lombard! The staff today was outstanding as usual. Always friendly and professional.“
