50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Plainfield

“Beautiful atmosphere and delicious ice cream! It was warm and inviting. The staff were so kind! Highly recommend :)“

“Great ice cream and very friendly staff. I loved the choices of traditional flavors and some unique new flavors. Although it was a little busy our order came out quickly. We will be back for sure.“

“Went Into the store on Saturday night, While sitting down enjoying the wonderful ice cream the staff closed the inside portion and when I asked why they said that they were very short staffed and would only do drive though for the remainder of the night. We were one of the last ones allowed inside before they locked the doors. The staff was great, friendly and never flinched at being under staffed. I would have never known had I not asked if they were closing early. They did a fantastic job of maintaining a very professional and courteous demeanor. Great job to all of the staff and the management on that night. Will definitely be returning“

“Great customer service. They always are friendly and get my order correct every time. There is a worker there by the name of Bobby and he is freaking awesome. He goes out of his way to be friendly, helpful, and gets the order perfect. Also he knows how to make all the drinks the proper way. Dude is awesome. This is my go to place and plus they are also a Baskin Robbins as well perfect place ????“

“Gansito and horchata ice cream?!?! Delicious mangoneadas?! Elote in a cup?!?! This place is awesome, can't wait to come back. Woman behind the counter was super friendly and helpful. Let us try the butter pecan yogurt too and it was phenomenal. Can't wait to go back!“

“Ordered FOD chocolate Oreo Volcano, my favorite! It was generously scooped, and perfectly composed. Burger orders with fries arrived quickly to our table. Manager stopped by our table and asked if we needed any ketchup,, sauce, or napkins Tables were clean. Go Plainfield Culvers! (Now how about that free scoop of custard?!)“

“Terrific ice cream and treats at good prices for great portions. All while setting the bar that I compare anyone else to in customer service. I love to come here not just because it's all delicious, but because I'm happy to support wonderful people.“

“No Chunks of Pistachio in Pistachio Milkshake. When you cut open the Lava Cake, you expect there to be liquid fudge coming out, but when we opened it, there was nothing. Just Cake with a bit of slightly not do liquidy fudge. But, a nice thing is that there are a lit of flavors for the Gelato like oreo, and Nutella.

Good and quick faculty and service, and all of the employees are nice, and friendly. On top of that, they deliver perfectly. The place also looks amazing.“

“Una tremenda experiencia con un buen servicio al cliente. El sabor de los helados (nieves) excelente. Llegamos en último momento y la calidad del servicio fue la mejor. Nos atendieron con una sonrisa amplia y aunque éramos un grupo de 6 personas, la atención fue de calidad. Si hubieran 100 estrellas se los daría; muchas veces recomendados. La próxima vez que vuelva a Romeoville por ahí pasaré.“

“A sweet tooth lovers dream. Huge portions of icecream and toppings. You eat with your eyes first and the presentation is amazing and of course it tastes amazing. Good music playing outside to add to the fun atmosphere. Highly recommend.“

“Yummy! Me and my mini me was driving seen the place and decided to stop. Man! Wasn’t it a good idea! We ordered a cookies and cream for her and for me pistachio and double chocolate chip. Flavors were Grrrrrreat! Yes it’s an actual waffle and Yes it is ammmazing! The crunchy edges of the waffle spooned with the ice cream is the perfect combination believe it or not! Seating was spacey and comfortable. The girls behind the counter were very helpful and nice. Eiffel Waffle my new fond of love.“

“This place is the cleanest and best fro yo around. The owner is amazing. Go there and support them. Staff is awesome and I finally know why. Freshest products/toppings.“

“It was ridiculously busy when we went there. Granted it was a Sunday and on top of that Mother’s Day. Only two women working there. I felt bad for them because they were definitely overwhelmed and on top of that themselves were probably mothers but spending their day working.If it wasn’t for my family, I would not have waited in the line for 30 minutes (no exaggeration) to get ice cream.Regarding the quality of ice cream, pretty amazing! Definitely worth a try, but hopefully on a different day when it’s not so busy.Some of the flavor suggestions here that I liked:Salted peanut butter with chocolate flecksDarkest chocolateFluffernutter pieBrown butter almond brittleNote to Management: you have good workers at this location. Hope you can support them better by providing more help.

Parking: Not easy to find parking around here, but there are free parking lots within a couple of blocks“

“my favorite place to go to in the summer great ice cream“

“What a Great find! We drove in from PHX. Had dinner at the Pub next door. We saw a line standing and then learned they were waiting to get an Ice Cream. If all the locals are standing outside in this muggy heat, it must be a good! Had the Boston Malt with banana. Great service and a great value! Thx Frosty Tips! We will be back.“

“Stopped by this place for bubble tea. Conveniently located close to Oakton Community College's Skokie campus!“

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

“Sweet little ice cream shop with an eclectic variety of flavors. Not a huge space but a little inside seating is available. We ordered a single scoop in a cup and they REALLY filled that cup. I definitely got my money's worth especially for a small local type place. Plus I always prefer local over chain establishments. We'll be back again.“

“Ice cream is delicious staff is wonderful“

“Great service! I grew up around here and love Oberweis eggnog. I just went in to get some before heading back to Minnesota. All the expiration dates were for before Christmas but the lady at the cash register went in the back to find new bottles so I’d have eggnog till Christmas. It’s very appreciated!“

“LOVE LOVE our neighborhood DQ!“

“Todo lo que he ordenado en La Garrafa es delicioso y el servicio al cliente es excelente. No te vayas sin tu botella de Chamoy!! Es lo más rico que hay!!“

“So if your a fan of (ice cream machine) or call it custard, they have the market cornered.... Remember its not ice cream like you get from say baskin-robbins, the service is pretty quick, its weird ordering because you do it at the drive thru window or to the guy walking the lane like at portillos..... Atleast you can stare at the menu until someone comes behind u.....“

“First time trying Andy’s this past Saturday and it was delicious! The staff member was very friendly and fast. We enjoyed every bite!“

“Now that Fanny May has gone kaput in terms of taste and quality, in steps Kilwins. I’ve been to them in Mass., Wisconsin and Illinois and you get variations on how nice the store can be but consistency in taste and appearance are always there. Fantastic toffee, caramels and fudge. Also the Heavenly Hash will make you a regular! Really satisfying turtles with really fresh pecans almost make you rationalize “at least I’m getting a little protein when you skip a meal and have one instead lol. I actually haven’t tried the ice cream yet. The Arlington Heights, Illinois store is my regular and when I’m nearby I must stop by!“

“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!“

“They have the best ice cream ever! I get the same thing every time i go a large twist cone and it is fabulous.“

“Great treats, delicious! Friendly people. A great experience.“

“I have never been to this place despite many of my friends having recommended me to taste their signature buns. Now I understand what I have been missing out on.Last week we finally stopped by this place. I’d say although the ambiance is elegantly casual (if that's a valid term), their service, the assortment of floors they offer make this place really sophisticated.We treated ourselves with a Turkish coffee, hot cappuccino, an Oreo shake & a basic bun. Turkish coffee had an intense flavor, never had anything quite like it.The bun had a super light & airy texture. Melting in the mouth plus the right amount of sweetness that paired seamlessly with unsweetened coffee.Had a good conversation with the owner, quite a decent gentleman. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a nice cozy space to share coffee & cake with friends/family or otherwise.

Parking: Plenty of parking spots. Accessible parking is available too.

Kid-friendliness: Multiple kid-friendly flavors and shakes. They have extensive menu options that the kids will love.“

“This is a cute place to enjoy the Ice cream social. We prefer the healthier deserts option and this place is it ! I had the mix juice of fresh mango, strawberry and avocado. My husband had Acai bowl with the fresh fruits and granola. Açai bowl is $3 cheaper than Smoothie King, we spent $20 for both of us for great quality. The fruits are all fresh and my husband loved it. We will definitely come back to bring our little nephew and niece soon !“

“Everytime I have come here this location has always hit the spot. I usually get a mint chocolate chip shake in the summer or a mint hot chocolate in the colder months. Both have been made well everytime and have satisfied me. I've had other things as well but my 2 favorites are my usual go to. I would recommend this place.“

“What's a 3 & 4 year old not to love about Dairy Queen. It's a families rite of passage. �“

“The employees were very friendly, fast service and clean restaurant. We ordered the banana splits and they were very good and filling. I purchased a quart of chocolate milk and it was so good!! I had to pay a deposit for the glass container which surprised me, but I should have realized it. We will definitely be back!!“

“stopped 1st time yesterday. will not be my last visit. very friendly staff, super clean and donuts are awesome“

“Our dog loves Dairy Queen for apparent reasons!
We have never been to this location before but the overall experience was fine. This location is primarily for takeaway only.

The store was a bit too busy on a Saturday evening. Besides our soft serves, we got one for our doggo and he slurped it all in seconds.

Good spot for a quick sweet treat for the entire family. #dogfriendly #icecream #softserve“

“Great customer service, delicious and flavorful treats. I will always recommend the mangonada and their paletas!“

“This has the BEST mangonada in Chicago area/suburbs!!! The tamarindo stick is delicious and the chamoy sauce and chili powder are of great taste, which is usually hard to find in the US. I would say that this one has genuine Mexican flavors. You can choose mango or strawberry.
The ice cream flavors are also of great taste.
The place is very small and simple. There are not tables to sit. Staff are friendly, speak both English and Spanish. Prices very affordable and good quality for the price.“

“This was amazing! I never had rolled ice cream, so I was super curious about it, and I'm so glad that my curiosity got the best of me! It was sooo yummy ? my son had the strawberry ? and oreos mixed in it. My boyfriend had strawberry and banana ? and it tasted like when the Dippin dots melt ? I had the vanilla and oreo! They were all good in my opinion. I will totally be going there again! I gave the atmosphere a 3 because it smelled bad inside. ?

Kid-friendliness: Cool place to take the kids to so they can watch it be made, and there are some cool little trinkets to look at !“

“Been to this DQ for the past few years, and I’ve always had a good experience. The owner is super nice, and so are the staff. This DQ is a staple of our community, and really is able to bring all of us together in times of division. And the frosted animal cookie blizzard is always good…“

“This Oberweis is exactly what you'd expect in all the best ways. It's clean, the staff is friendly, and the ice cream is delicious. I wish the banana splits were bigger but I have no real complaints we come here every chance we get.“

“Homemade chips were very good. Burger was amazing. Exceptional service.“
