50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Deer Park

“I don’t usually write reviews, but I had to share how exceptional the service was today. I visited the Deer Park store with my son, and when he had a meltdown over losing his favorite toy, the crew member (Sri) went above and beyond. She directed us to a quiet area to help calm him down, then checked in on us with a thoughtful gift for my son, which made his day (it was his birthday!). She was kind, empathetic, and made us feel so comfortable. Thank you, Sri, for making this experience so special!“

“Delicious, fresh, healthy smoothies on a hot day were absolutely perfect. William made our daughter a minion milkshake (and secretly made it healthy without her knowing, which was perfect for our very picky eater), and our son enjoyed a taro boba tea with popping mango boba. Such a great find, and fabulous owner!“

“Nice ice cream shop and a bonus as they have entertainment“

“Great atmosphere, delightful,delicious ice cream and great prices.“

“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.“

“Kurimu is such a fun spot for Japanese-style soft-serve ice cream with creative and unique flavors! Their soft-serve is creamy, delicious, and definitely the highlight of the menu.

The staff are friendly and the service is really good, which makes the experience even better. We also tried their bubble teas, just a heads-up, they’re more subtly sweet compared to the usual bubble teas, so if you’re looking for something super sweet, this might not be the place for that.

But if you’re here for soft-serve (which you absolutely should be), you won’t be disappointed. Definitely worth a visit for anyone looking to try something different and tasty! 🍦🧋✨“

“SMOOTH FLAVORED YOGURT!Healthy alternative to sugary treats :)We were in the mall and happened to stumble upon this place. It’s a nice spot for hangouts. Great flavors and toppings. The gentleman at the front was very polite and friendly. He walked me through the steps for purchasing a cup. My son enjoyed the mango and strawberry yogurt topped with popping bobas.“

“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.“

“Love this place! I’m from Wisconsin but life close to the Illinois boarder. I came across this gem while driving by. We stopped and order food- and then went back up to the window to order a few more times. The staff were very sweet and time efficient. Their creamsicle soft serve cone is to die for! We’ll be back!“

“Wow! The scoop size is massive. So delicious. I was way too ambitious getting a double 🤣“

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

“Can never go wrong with their cookies!!! We love them! I do wish the service was faster and the atmosphere was more enjoyable or entertaining. It's quite boring and can be uncomfortable waiting in a long line, packed in a small area at the front of the store.“

“they were very friendly n accomodating to their customers😘“

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

“This is a fine establishment and the menu seems as though it is never ending. It is a great place to go when the weather is sunny. The outdoor seating is amazing and water is offered nearby. I got the dirt and worms with a few of my friends and we enjoyed our time here. The staff members are extremely kind and efficient workers. Our orders came out within minutes and the quality was not lackluster in the slightest. I would definitely come back again“

“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!!“

“Crumbl Cookies offers delicious, oversized cookies with a rotating menu of unique flavors, often served warm. Their soft, flavorful treats come in a charming pink box, making them perfect for sharing or indulging solo. Always fresh and fun, Crumbl delivers a consistently delightful experience.

Kid-friendliness: Crumbl Cookies is a great option for kids, offering soft, oversized cookies in fun flavors that rotate weekly. The treats are served warm and come in a charming pink box, making them perfect for sharing or enjoying as a family. A fun and tasty experience for all ages!“

“Excellent ice cream and fudge!!“

“They are by far the best dq in the suburbs. They are not stingy with toppings. Sure the price reflects that sometimes but will you rather pay $8 for a blizzard with 2 Oreo cookies in it or $10 for one with 8 Oreos in it? I love the Oreo blizzard and Reese’s. Though no fault of their own…I wish the Reese’s had less choco chunks and more peanut butter stuff ❤️. Regardless i appreciate them and always thank them!“

“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!“

“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!!!! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“A very unique place for the area that offers a lot. From rolled ice cream, pudding, donuts, etc. Their main staple is the bubble tea and other milk teas which are fantastic. A variety of great toppings that really add to the complexity of flavor of each of their beverages. Definitely check them out if you are in the area.“

“I love the new cookie releases every week. It's fun to check the app weekly to see if they have any flavors I would want to try. I'm finally rating crumble 4 stars because crumble has come out with mini versions of their cookies weekly too. The app is amazing as well because you can accru points for freebies. Sometimes, the cookies can be to raw for my taste at this location or there not enough sauces or toppings, but it just depends on the flavor and batch.“

“Please do consider booking Sweet Home Gelato for your wedding! Each flavor offered is incredibly tasty. The pricing is extremely fair for catering and much more affordable compared to other vendors. My wedding was scheduled for August 8,2020. But due to Covid-19, we unfortunately had to cancel. Janice was extremely compassionate, understanding and flexible during the whole process. Sweet Home Gelato was the most compassionate and flexible vendor. It is not easy to cancel a wedding, unfortunately many vendors were not as accommodating. Janice immediately offered a refund, date change or gift card for the deposit. Sweet Home Gelato was under no circumstance required to issue a refund. Please do consider supporting this small business that is run by good people!“

“I have come to this candy shop for the last 10 years. That should speak for itself. If it doesn't, I'll say more:I absolutely love chocolate malts. Any place I go that has them, I always order one. SweetSpot makes the most INCREDIBLE malt I have ever had anywhere, and not once in 10 years has it been less than amazing! I took a friend a few months ago, telling them that the malts are the best and she was skeptical. Had one sip and said it was "50/10."However, if you aren't into malts, there are many other things to love. They have the widest variety of candies I have ever seen at one shop, plus some types of candy that I haven't seen anywhere else in 15 years, not to mention soda in actual glass bottles! Good luck finding those in your local grocery store! It seems impossible to find a real *candy* store anymore, as opposed to a store with a candy section.If you're in the area, SweetSpot is a must-visit. I'm moving several hours away tomorrow, but you can be sure that any time I come back to visit, I'll be stopping here for a malt!“

“The ice cream here and creamy milk is very tasty and delicious!“

“Fast service Good response“

“The peppermint frozen yogurt cake was delicious! The perfect Christmas dessert!“

“Nice little DQ that isn't as busy as other locations so it's great for a little treat for the kiddos without crazy long lines.

Kids always get blizzards so it's an easy order, but they come out quickly and correctly do it's a win win.“

“Found my favorite childhood snack — egg waffles 🧇 — at MilkCow cafe near home! Definitely coming back again! Their ice cream was amazing too — super creamy and full of milky goodness 🍦💛“

“My 4 year old son loved it here!!! He was so proud to have designed a donut (which was actually just the cookies and cream option from the menu) but he watched them make it and decorate it and then showed it to everyone he passed. He said they were the BEST donuts he’s ever had! I had the cold brew with sweet cream which was solid.“

“My husband Gary and I and our adorable baby fefe just walked over to Dairy Queen for the free vanilla ice cream cones. And I got my vanilla ice cream cone with the chocolate coating and it was absolutely delicious! the ice cream is always fresh and delicious and the employees are always so friendly. Keep up the good work and thank you so very much for our free delicious vanilla ice cream cones they were so delicious and very yummy. My husband Gary and I and our adorable baby fefe are really looking forward to seeing you guys at mundelein days and Vernon hills days this year as well. ??????????‍⬛“

“Food was very good. I ended up with chilaquiles (with chicken breast) and my friend got the pupusas and dobladas. Really solid, and I appreciate the subtle differences in flavors between the Guatamalan dishes and standard Mexican fare. However, only 4/5 because ordering (in English) was difficult. I tried to get grilled skirt steak and a green chicken enchilada (as a single item, listed that way on the menu) but what was originally brought out was 3 green chicken enchiladas. I explained the issue and thought it was clear but ended up getting brought the chilaquiles. My friend got his pupusas but the dobladas was not brought and had to be ordered again. The food was delicious and I'm not a picky eater so this wasn't a huge deal, but others that need to order a specific thing, in English, may have trouble. I will be back though, and I will brush up on my Spanish.“

“Need more syrup on the banana splits. Ice cream was good“

“Delicious. I have never tasted something more scrumptious. I love the workers. They are my true friends. They get me, they are there for me, and they see me on my worst and best days. I make it my life goal to go everyday just to see them. They know me by name. 10/10. Love it here.“

“Matcha was of very high grade. Priced rightly for the great quality and taste! This place is located in food court of Mitsuwa marketplace. Offers many variations of matcha, such as strawberry or cinnamon and vanilla matcha. There are also matcha desserts such as soft serve. The original iced matcha latte was superb, as a regular matcha drinker this is near the top for me! 🍵💚“

“Culver’s at mount prospect is a really nice and friendly place specially one employee...!!! I dont know his name but he makes every guest feels welcome..!!! And the food is really good..!! My daughters love chicken tenders and ice cream 🍨“

“I ordered a small request of chicken tenders and cheese curds (that's it!!) And it took almost 30 minutes for them to get it to me. So much for fast food. The worst part was I ordered takeout, so by the time I got home, both the chicken and the curds were cold. But every other time has been no problem, with really good food.

Parking: Lots of spots

Kid-friendliness: Really nice to children- they have special bags that kids meals come in, and prizes behind the counter for frequent visitors, not to mention the number of booths which we all know kids love for some reason...“

“Dairy Queen has always been about the ice cream and sundaes. However some people like myself eat the Chilli dogs and other food items offered. The food is average and definitely could use a new updated menu with more options. The customer service was great and she helped explain the menu items for me. The reason I gave 3 stars for atmosphere is because it's quite drewy in the building and it also could use an update. ENJOY!!“

“awesome awesome ice cream“

“1st time visiting this establishment. Very friendly and nostalgic atmosphere. Had their 1/3 burger and onion rings. It was fantastic!! Best burger I've had in a long time. Actually meaty and fresh not one of those frozen smash burgers. Can't wait for my next visit. Hope to try something new, if I can convince myself to skip the burgers. And did I mention very reasonably priced. Highly recommend!!“
