21 Best Ice Cream Shops near Collinsville

“The Collinsville Dairy Freeze is a community staple. The owners and staff are friendly and efficient. If you haven’t yet had their orange sherbet, it’s the best (possibly the best in the world!).“

“The delicious burger place with best fries and fry sauce out of any burger chain! Great burgers as well! But now, i found a new dynamite dessert that is a mini hot chocolate frost drink for just $2 that hits your sweet chocolate spot, perfectly! It's fantastic! Nice staff, also!“

“Visited to dine in yesterday and was pleased with both the speed and accuracy of service. Absolutely nothing wrong with our order, which is kind of a rarity these days. This location was very attentive when my wife said the could not have the dairy or glutton. The offered to change their gloves and clean off the equipment that would have come into contact with other allergens. This left an impression with my wife.“

“We live in the Glen Carbon and this is by far the best DQ in the area! Management and staff are wonderful and food is always good!“

“my fav place to go. staff are wonderful people“

“They have the most delicious ice cream! My boys and I really enjoy it. Also they serve pup cups and our little doggie Bean loves it 😊 Very friendly staff!“

“This place is awesome! The only drawbacks are the cash only and the location causes some minor traffic issues all in all I will still drive past other ice cream establishments to come here. Best place to go get a sweet treat with the family!“

“The ice cream is very good, but...don't plan on any "naughty" flavors at the Edwardsville store, probably ever. That aspect is very disappointing. Service is great, atmosphere good. The owners should be up-front and post "no boozy flavors" on the Edwardsville website, not just a sign inside (after you're already inside the store). The ice cream was very tasty, but I was craving something "special".“

“Always enjoyable. love the flavors“

“Closed on Mondays in May FYI“

“Oh my gosh, it was so good. I love it. I get it every week. My mom says it’s too expensive but I buy it with my own money so she can’t get mad at me. I love Crumbl cookie to the top to the down if you buy me Crumbl cookie on my birthday, my gosh, I love you so much.“

“The lines were long but we got through very fast. It was worth the wait. My relatives who we were visiting took us there. It was nostalgic looking and we were impressed by the shear number of people who were there during our visit. I can just imagine what it would look like on am extremely warm evening.“

“What is better than home cooked? They believe in flavor here. I have tried most of the food menu and loved everything so far. The momma drinks are awesome and the ice cream hasn’t disappointed. I recommend them and I am a regular.“

“City Scoops Creamery is a little gem in Troy, IL. They offer a selection of over 30 ice creams, sorbets, and Italian ices. My personal favorite is the Southern Bourbon Butter Pecan. It combines the subtle caramel warmth of bourbon and the nutty crunch of pecans. The service at City Scoops has always been friendly and efficient. If you're in the area, it's worth stopping by.“

“We love going down to Sweet Nettie B's for a delicious ice cream treat with the family! Yummy ice cream, great portion sizes and plenty of toppings! Last time I was there, he told me he had some new flavors coming and asked me to try them and they were all so good! I especially loved the gooey butter cake flavor!“

“great food and great service ‼️“

“I can't really have ice cream. And if I did I wouldn't have this because it's just oddly cold. I understand that's kind of a point but I can't stand when I put ice cream in my mouth and I can feel it clinging to my tongue. It's just weird“

“This place has some of the best boba I’ve had. The drinks taste fresh and balanced, and they are not overly sweet. The tapioca pearls are soft and chewy, which makes the drink even better. The staff is friendly, and the service is quick, even when it gets busy. The shop is clean and has a nice, relaxed vibe. You can really tell the owner takes pride in the store and cares about the quality and customer experience. My favorite drink here is the green tea mango boba. It’s refreshing and full of flavor. I definitely recommend giving it a try if you like fruity drinks. I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“My brother is terminally ill. One of two things on his bucket list were to 1) go deep sea fishing - which can’t happen, and 2) try Gooey Buttercake Ice Cream. After running everywhere yesterday to try to find it, with no luck, as a last ditch effort I went in to Annie’s. They did not have it on the menu but Emily (the owner) was so considerate when she heard what was happening that she decided to attempt to make it on her own for me to pick up today. She told me everyone said it was delicious who tried it. Unfortunately, my brother will likely not be able to taste it as he is relatively unresponsive within a very short 24 hour period. The service, the support, them going above and beyond from what I could have ever dreamed of is absolutely beyond words. I’m sure Tom would have loved it. Thank you, Emily! There are still angels on this earth. And my daughter is absolutely addicted to your custard, and has been for four years!“

“Ice Cream Heaven is a cute, little family-run ice cream stand on the east end of Belleville.  Perfect spot for a quick ice cream snack, or even your bulgogi needs!  My last visit was on Father's Day 2025- it's my grandpa's favorite ice cream spot.  To me, it's exactly what an ice cream stand should feel like- there's seating, decent prices, and lots of variety.  I like popping by after a game of softball on a summer night.

Only complaint is their very tight parking lot.  If you're close enough, I suggest walking.  On Father's Day, there were lots of customers and my family witnessed someone backing into another car when trying to leave.  This isn't anything on the business, but just something to be award of if you plan on going on a busy day.

Need to know: They only accept cash payment.“
