50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Libertyville

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

“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!“

“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!“

“It's two great places in one billding Baskin-Robbins and Dunkin Donuts are a great place to go and get ice-cream, coffee, donut and muffin's as I really do love the blue Barry muffin's as well the staff are really friendly and helpful yet it's not a 24 hour store and they will run out of Donut's and muffin's by the later part of the afternoon and evening most day's.“

“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.“

“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.“

“To the staff at Libertyville Culver’s, thank you so much for taking care of Hanna during her Special Needs Transition Pathways work program. Hanna loved working there. Not to worry, we love Culverts and Hanna will be back!“

“The donuts are fantastic but the place itself is gross. The floor is sticky and looks like it hasn't been swept or mopped in days. No napkins available and when we asked the staff said their boss hadn't ordered any paper goods or cleaning supplies in a while. The bathroom didn't have toilet paper, soap or paper towels either and was disgusting. I wonder if they even have soap in the kitchen to wash their hands. I don't think it's dramatic to say the health department should probably be called.“

“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!“

“10/10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“Awesome customer service and delicious ice cream served with a smile. We tried the peach cobbler and the Mississippi mud slide. YUM! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

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

“WOW WOW WOW !!! AMAZING cookies and so beautiful too“

“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.“

“Thank you, Joon for the delicious boba teas 🧋 and smoothies! They were a hit! 18 drinks to celebrate our daughter’s birthday! My personal fave is milk tea with easy tapioca. We absolutely love this place and definitely will return!“

“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!!“

“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.“

“So so so good! We got pizza and ice cream. Both were perfect! We are so excited for summer with many dinners here!“

“Best burgers in the area!“

“So this past June marked my very first time visiting a Crumbl Cookies. I guess I musta been living under rock (actually no) but apparently I misunderstood the concept behind the famed bakery.When I first walked in and browsed the menu, I was like "only 6 different types of cookies?" Well ok then, guess I'll try each one times 2. I eventually found out from my stepdaughter that there's a rotation each week which makes perfect sense.These cookies are outstanding: they stay soft, moist & flavorful for several days and the price which may seem high to some is definitely worth it. The ability to add on to the cookies is ideal as well.Customer service is down-to-earth friendly and helpful and as long as they keep baking that yummy goodness with consistency, I'll keep coming back for more.“

“Es la mejor peletería de la zona“

“Food is awesome here, and every kids meal comes with a free ice cream, my daughter instantly fell in love when she found that out. Now she wants to go all the time. She loved the burger and fries also but the free ice cream excited her lol.“

“I visited a few days ago and ordered for me a star berry yogurt. Best of the yogurts, I wasn’t paying attention and accidentally dropped it. The staff was very kind and replaced my yogurt. The staff is kind and the place is clean.“

“Always a great treat whether I'm with the family or not and especially on a hot summer day/night, Cold Stone really hits the spot. But even when it gets cold out, still fun to go to even during a brutal Chicago area winter.This is probably the one ice cream parlor around compared to others that has a huge emphasis on toppings/creations which is definitely their strong point.Always a great selection of flavors between their regular year round and seasonal flavors, prices still seem reasonable although the high-end ice cream chain has never really been cheap and customer service remains consistently good in an always spiffy clean/sanitized atmosphere.CSC obviously does battle with competitors such as Oberweis up the road and Graeter's. When it comes to taste and quality, this place lives up to the price and my kids are well worth it anytime of the year.Only con (which doesn't drag down a 5⭐️ rating) about this place is the parking lot which can be greatly limited especially on wknd nights when nearby Giordano's gets packed. You may find yourself having to park east across the street from Starbucks and walking a bit of distance.“

“I came here with my kids who were really excited for ice cream and boba, and we were very happy with the quality and service. Superman milkshake was so good, strawberry smoothie with tapioca was my favorite! We all had a blast and Jerry made us feel very welcomed! This will definitely be our ice cream and boba spot.“

“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. ??????????‍⬛“

“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 🍦💛“

“Awesome experience, love that they support local youth sports organizations. Culver’s is awesome“

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

“GREAT ATMOSPHERE- GREAT COFFEE & that Ham & Cheese Roll was amazing“

“By far our favorite neighborhood place to go! We are pretty close and take out often. The gyro and chicken gyro are phenomenal, along with the chicken Philly and burgers. I truly don't think we have had anything sub-par. But even better, is the price. Especially for the quality of the food, the price point keeps up coming back over and over.“

“Delicious burgers, fried chicken, ice cream, etc.“

“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.“

“I visited a few days ago and ordered for me a star berry yogurt. Best of the yogurts, I wasn’t paying attention and accidentally dropped it. The staff was very kind and replaced my yogurt. The staff is kind and the place is clean.“

“Culver’s Grayslake is my 32nd Culver’s. As someone else in the reviews said, “You can’t go wrong with Culver’s.” I visited on Friday, May 23, 2025. Their ice cream always hits the spot and I couldn’t believe how great business was going. The staff was friendly and respectful and overall the mood and atmosphere of Culver’s in Grayslake, Illinois was awesome! (Written 5-30-25)“

“Great experience Owner of Comfort Gurnee recommended and even provided a gift card to try your ice cream !! He’s a big fan !!!“

“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...“

“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!!“

“great restaurant very good food and service“

“My boss ordered online for our lunch a couple times we had butter burgers one day then Tim had cod fish dinner I had fish sandwich and Matt had chicken tenders that I had to pick up. The fish seemed to give Tim a upset belly cause I had to help him to the bathroom at the job at trampoline park we did pit for foam pit.“

“VERY overdue but the homie and homegirl on shift were both extremely chill. We had to stop for some ice cream and it was two little girls that we had with us and they were understanding of kids being in there and they threw us a couple of extra apple fritters. Homeboy was wearing like a Japanese belt or something like that which was also very cool.“

“We stopped by to try BR's version of the Mangonada. It looked very colorful and mouth watering. It's more of a smoothie than an ice cream, which explains why the guy looked at me weird when I asked for a spoon ?. So besides getting over the difference in consistency, it's Really Good! I started eating it with a spoon and then just gave up and stuck the straw in ?. It's a nice twist on the original Mangonada. I will definitely buy again!“

“Often drive over an hour for their delicious offerings! This shop is a must for any sweet lover!!“

“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!“

“Went to get corn in a cup plz plz make sure ask customers how much cheese and mayo they want cause I barly get any cheese and mayo on my corn on a cup and I know it's the person making it cause I gotten different ppl attending me and they make bomb azz corn in a cub“

“Pizza was fantastic!!! We will be ordering again!!!“

“I’m lucky to be right next to Michoacán a Pedir de Boca at the mall! Their treats are seriously the best. Fresh fruit, ice cream, elote, amazing drink flavors, and a friendly staff that makes you feel welcome every time. I’ve been to many Michoacanas, and this one has the best fresh fruit drinks I’ve had (agua de fruta is my favorite). I haven’t even had the chance to try everything yet, but if you’re at Gurnee Mills, you’ve got to stop by. Great people, great treats…can’t recommend them enough!“

“loved my pumpkin pie blizzard. have to get one every year.“
