23 Best Ice Cream Shops near Pingree Grove

“A place that has the opportunity to grow legendary like the South Sides’ Mitchell’s. It’s quite good ice cream. The place has a charm but can’t really figure out it exterior options for optimal opportunities to improve flow and customer experience. The shop sure cranks people through at a decent clip. Impressively staffed on a very busy evening. An eclectic neighborhood crowd gives the atmosphere a unique vibe like it’s a big ice cream social and you’re invited.“

“Ice cream is sooo good! Way better than all others! You should definitely give this a try!“

“Excellent alternative for a family night out for dessert!! Very friendly and excellent !!“

“I am addicted to these damn cookies!!! The choices change every week, and I find myself in the app every sunday night looking at what's new. The strawberry shortcake cookie thing was amazing! I also love the cornflake pb cookie. Highly recommend!!!!“

“I took my kids and their friends after school today for a back to school treat. The staff is personable and passionate in their customers. The milk shakes were so creamy and thick. The trick was to add a scoop of vanilla with the Oreo and extra Oreo crumbles on top. The sandwiches were so fresh and homemade. My kids loved the 80’s theme and the music. We definitely will be back!!“

“Best tasting iced sugar cookies and so beautiful! They were perfect for the birthday party!“

“The kids who are working there: amazing, educated and knowledgeable.
I was a terrible costumer for them because I didn’t know how to explain them what I needed… they figured out and it made me feel good.
Great job and I’m glad I still meet such great kids.
The ice cream is not the best and the location as well. 5⭐️ is for the kids who served me.“

“This is a hidden gem! What sets Cherry On Top apart is its unwavering commitment to quality. Each batch of ice cream is made with the finest ingredients. They even have dairy-free options! Stop spending your money on artificial ingredients at Dairy Queen. Despite the top-notch quality, COT keeps its prices refreshingly affordable. It's a place where you can satisfy your sweet tooth without breaking the bank, making it a great spot for families and friends. Whether you're craving a classic cone or feeling adventurous, they have something to satisfy every palate. So many flavors! Service is great and ran by a dedicated small business owner.“

They always keep everything arrange, Organize and clean. We like the atmosphere. We love their ice cream! 4 pints for $11 ! Nothing beats their sweets! They have the BEST Creamy Lemon Crumble Custard!“

“First time here and won't be the last! Pleasant, and friendly service, welcoming in today's hurry up world! Food was outstanding especially the fried rice and shrimp and fried rice and chicken combo. Was looking for a good Chinese restaurant. They have my vote, stop by and order, you won't be disappointed!!!

“Excellent customer service, everyone was very friendly. Food was hot and fresh.“

“I purchased a caramel apple with pecans yesterday and when I cut it open this afternoon, it was rotten inside. So, I drove 30 minutes to your store and your employees were both super kind and apologized for the rotten apple and offered to either refund or replace the apple. I asked if they could cut it open for me before I left, and they said they weren't allowed to. Which if that's your policy, is not on them. They did, however, offer to open a new box to hopefully get me a fresh one. Like I said before, excellent customer service.

Happily, when I finally got home to open the new apple it was fresh. Sadly, it wasn't a very tasty caramel apple. The caramel was mediocre and the pecans tasted stale. At minimum, offer to cut them open before people leave so you know if they are OK before selling them. I really think you need a new supplier. Perhaps a local orchard? Jonamac Orchard in Malta, IL has amazing caramel apples.

Additionally, my husband had the pumpkin pie concrete yesterday and he said it was quite delicious!“

“I recently ordered an Ice Cream Birthday Cake from Cold Stone Creamery for a gathering of 40 people, and I must say, it was an absolute hit. From the moment I placed the order to the very last bite, the experience was nothing short of delightful.First and foremost, the cake itself was a masterpiece. Layers of rich, creamy ice cream sandwiched between moist cake layers created a symphony of flavors and textures that left everyone at the party wanting more. The combination of flavors was perfectly balanced, ensuring that each bite was as satisfying as the last.Not only was the cake delicious, but it was also beautifully presented. The attention to detail in the decoration was evident, and it added an extra element of excitement to the celebration. It truly felt like a special occasion with such a stunning centerpiece.The service provided by Cold Stone Creamery was exceptional from start to finish. The staff were friendly, helpful, and efficient, making the ordering process smooth and stress-free. They were accommodating to our specific requests and ensured that the cake was ready exactly when we needed it.Overall, I cannot recommend Cold Stone Creamery's Ice Cream Birthday Cakes highly enough. If you're looking for a dessert that will impress your guests and leave them with lasting memories, look no further. Thank you, Cold Stone Creamery, for helping make our celebration unforgettable.“

“I saw a BOGO deal online for blizzards if you ordered using the app but couldn't figured out how to get the deal. I went to dairy queen in Algonquin off main Street and the girl working the register helped me figure it out. She was so warm and welcoming and friendly and really made the experience great!“

“Ordered our family birthday cake by mistake at this location. Right day right time everything was 50% off that day. Homemade dilly bars and blizzard cake was amazing. Ice cream was just so fresh tasting. By far the best DQ to go to we will be back. Thanks!!“

“Recomendadisimo, ssta delicioso y el servicio al cliente de lo mejor, la duena siempre nos atiende personalmente y es superlinda y nos explica y ofrese que tratar de nuevo cada vez que visitamos. Se acuerda de nosotros y es muy amable igual que el resto de su personal. Son un amor y todo esta super delicioso. Nuestro postre favorito son las fresas con crema y pedacitos de cheesecake. Pero todo esta super delicioso al igual que limpio y muy higiénico. Los mejores precios y te atiende super rapido.“

“This Dairy Queen is my go to when I want a sweet treat. The blizzards are always good but they can be expensive. They do give you a lot of ice cream so it makes up for the price. I haven't had any issues with the quality of the ice cream so far! I highly recommend for the family.“

“THE BEST BURGERS AND SWEET POTATO FRIES IN ILLINOIS PERIOD! PLEASE GIVE YOUR EMPLOYEES A RAISE, they are all very kind and helpful! Also the turtle sundae was very delicious. The establishment is very spacious and clean. I love visiting places where the employees are having fun while still providing excellent customer service. It almost felt like i was in the krusty krab with a lot of spongebobs and no squidwards. ??

UPDATE 8/10 this time i had the classic chicago hotdog and sweet potato fries! Unfortunately this time around the hot dog was not all that great, very bland and actual weiner didn’t have much flavor and the sweet potatoes were a bit burnt, but i think this is a minor mistake than can easily be fixed in the future! Can’t wait to be back!“

“It's Dairy Queen. Soft serve of all kinds. The food selections are hit and miss. They offer meal deals on par with other fast food franchises, and like others, deals are often available.
It's about the soft serve.
My 5 star review reflects my love of soft serve and my days of youth before 31 favors and yogurt.
I always go dipped cone. Hard shell and soft serve are one of the things that make DQ deliciously different.“

“Mai gave the best customer service I’ve experienced in a while. She took care of us quickly. South Elgin Oberweis is my new favorite location. I was greeted when I walked in and when I left. No one was on their phone and everyone was attentive. I appreciate that.“

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