Ice Cream Shops near South Barrington

“They did our recent gender reveal cake and knocked it out of the park! Not only did it look exactly like the design idea I shared with them, but it tasted incredible. I literally liked this cake better than my own wedding cake, haha!“

“Bamboo Spoon has such a great selection of things I never make it back to try them all .. They do Frozen Yogurt, many flavors with lots of stuff to put it in, they just added a premium high milkfat ice cream .. they do organic smoothies and lots of different bubble teas .. they also have the 'protien' so that one could go there with people on a couple of diets, ones that didn't care and some kids and everyone would find something they liked... And something they would like to try next time! They are happy to customize for you! Everything is clean and well managed, and everyone is pleasant. I stop there regularly .. Nice stop after dinner in the Arboretum or after a massage at Elements next door! :)“

“Loved the 80 flavor option and the ice cream was delicious, but there should be a sign posted that are TWO different prices based on premium favors, etc- nothing noted, indicated on cases, mentioned by employees or posted. Buyer beware 😉“

“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!“

“I had such a great experience at Amorino! Zymal and Emiliano were both incredibly friendly and made the visit even better. They were patient, helpful, and gave great recommendations for the gelato flavors. The customer service was outstanding, and the gelato was delicious. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“2/5/2026 My wife, a friend, and I went to the restaurant after hearing about it and reading their reviews. The atmosphere and food were excellent. will definitely go again, no doubt.“

“Delicious ice cream and the kids cone is the perfect size for my 3 year old!“

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

“Crumbl in Hoffman Estates is a sweet stop for anyone with a cookie craving. The rotating menu keeps things exciting, with new flavors to try every week alongside the classic favorites. The cookies are big, fresh, and usually warm, making them perfect for sharing (or not!). The store is clean, and the service is quick and friendly. Prices are a little high, but the quality and unique flavors make it worth it.“

“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.“

“I absolutely love having this boba shop so close to our home! I’ve been here a couple of times now, and Beck and Asem have always been so kind, genuine, and welcoming. You can really tell that they care about their customers and genuinely want you to enjoy your drink. They even take the time to ask if you like it and make sure you’re happy with it, which I really appreciate.

It’s also so nice to have a small, friendly local place within walking distance. I’ve really enjoyed my visits here, and the people who work here make the experience even better. They’re both such lovely people, and I’m happy to support them. Highly recommend stopping by! 🧋❤“

“Nice efficient and great service; items sold are also very good“

“Vegan marshmallows & Fantastic flavors! My favorite is the Flight: banana cream pie, This &$#! Got Serious, rhubarb crumble and Heaps of Love Yep 4‼️ Try the most unique & best tasting ice cream anywhere served by the friendliest and most welcoming staff! Head to Dinis!“

“Comet Frozen Custard is one of the best local spots in Rolling Meadows! The frozen custard is always fresh, creamy, and packed with flavor. They have a great variety of daily flavors and toppings, so there’s always something new to try.

The staff is consistently friendly, the service is quick, and the atmosphere has that classic neighborhood ice cream stand feel that keeps people coming back. Whether you’re stopping in for a cone, sundae, shake, or just a coffee, everything is made with care.

It’s a family-owned business that truly cares about its customers and community. If you’re looking for a great dessert spot in the northwest suburbs, Comet Frozen Custard is absolutely worth the visit. Highly recommended!“

“The service here is amazing. The people here, especially Rose, are nice and caring. I like that I can get a cold or hot beverage. The food is great, too. And it's just a great place to sit for awhile. Very welcoming place.“

“I was really happy with my visit. The customer service was really great, sorry I do not know the name of the nice young lady that took my order. I was really happy that you guys have Blue Moon!! It’s my favorite flavor, and I will be back to come get some more. 5/5 stars ❤️❤️❤️“

“Mmmmm Good Stuff! Best frozen dessert ever“

“I am SOOOO lucky to live right across the street from this ice cream shop. It’s a bit more pricey than some places but the cost reflects the incredible quality of their premium ice creams. My faves are Peanut butter cookie dough; Coconut chip; Fat Elvis & Zanzibar (a rich dark chocolate). There’s a flavor for everyone. I think there’s like 50 different kinds. Open from mid-March to mid-October & on the last day of the season, you can buy whatever is left over. I got a whole tub one October for about $50–it lasted the whole winter! Yummmmm🥰“

“Solid italian food. I've only tried their pastas and they were very good. Good quality chicken and servings are plentiful. The only suggestion I would make to the restaurant is to better set up their online ordering systems and encourage customers to use them versus calling in orders. Also, allow take out ordering on holidays such as new years eve when you're open.“

“You don’t understand how much I love Crumbl like I don’t care what other people say the way that a cookie crumbles like that that’s the whole point of the name like what do you mean? I love you so much. I literally haven’t had crumble in a Minutes so I’m excited to have my Cookie“

“Muy buena👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“This is a small ice cream shop with some very good, but also some very strange flavors (like Durian or Black Sesame). They gladly give out samples, so make sure you try a flavor out before buying.

The sizes are on the small size for the price. It was close to $40 for 4 of us to get cones.

The place also has been redecorated for Initial D instead of Doraemon.“

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

“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!!“

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

“The people working are very nice, and they will make whatever you want if they have the ingredients. Ankit the owner is very community oriented. every time I walk in there I'm just visiting some friends.“

“Their custard is great! Loved the chocolate and toffee.“

“Great for families- large play area and super clean. Large variety of ice cream, sorbet and popsicles as well as fresh fruit treats. I had the coconut ice cream and it was fantastic. Super friendly staff-“

“Glad you’re changing to Coke products. My family of 5, prefer coke over Pepsi. Pepsi is too sweet.“

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

“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!“

“I went here the other week with my girlfriend and it was awesome, the Orange Beef and Spicy Wontons were the best! We stayed to eat outside and got to talk to the owner (who by the way is super friendly). We're definitely going back soon :)“

“Standard Culvers. Nothing special about this location. Portions are ok. Average wait time at drive thru.“

“Absolutely love this bakery! The people who work here are some of the sweetest and most welcoming you'll ever meet. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and everything is always fresh and delicious.
If you stop by, be sure to ask for Olivia—she makes the best coffee! Her drinks are always perfect and made with care.
And the gelato? Incredible. It tastes just like you're in Italy. Every flavor is rich, creamy, and authentic. This place is truly a gem, and I can't recommend it enough!“

“Yummy 😋 Good ice cream 🍦“

“Muy buen cervisio muy amables les doy un 10“

“SweetSpot is great. I appreciate the staffs and managers kindness to me even though I have autism and their food is amazing and really good. Owner Doreen is very nice. The restaurant is in good condition. Amazing frozen ice. Must come back. 10/10.“

“This was my first time visiting this place. I must say, The customer service, food, and atmosphere was way above what I was expecting. I usually do not like custard ice cream(I have tried 4 places before here), my partner said just try it. But before we finished our food, I was given a sample and I loved it. I don't know what they do differently. But it was excellent. I'm definitely making sure when I visit again this Culver's will be my first stop for food.“

“We got a custom birthday cake made here after trying nearly every place we could think of for an Among Us-themed ice cream cake. Pretty much everyone declined, with some even telling us what we wanted was impossible. The DQ team, however, actually took on the challenge, and wow, did they deliver!

They made us a custom Choco Brownie Extreme Blizzard Cake with extra chocolate frosting, and it was absolutely incredible. The team that worked on it, including Chinar, went above and beyond from the moment they accepted our unusual request. They shared our excitement, worked with our idea, and created something that exceeded every expectation we had.

We've had A LOT of cakes over the years, but this was honestly unlike anything we've had before. Calling it a perfect 10/10 somehow still feels like an understatement. It was THAT delicious!

We cannot recommend this DQ location highly enough, especially if you're looking for an amazing custom ice cream cake. A huge thank you to Chinar and every single member of the team who accepted our request, shared in our excitement, and ultimately created a birthday cake that will forever be etched in our memories as one of the most delicious cakes we've ever had. You guys absolutely nailed it! ❤“

“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!!!! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“My kids beg me for frozen yogurt from here and they have fun adding the toppings. I tried the pomegranate açaí mixed with mango sorbet and it is delicious and so refreshing! The staff is so friendly and it is always so clean. Perfect neighborhood place!“

“Hands down the best red velvet donuts in Illinois!! Don’t go anywhere else for amazing and variety of donuts!“

“Everything tasted great tonight but for some reason the bun just fell apart...“

“Fantastic service! The drive thru attendant was polite, knowledgeable, and courteous. When I pulled up to the window she asked if I required napkins or anything else, and wished me a pleasant evening as well! Overall, it was a great experience, and I highly recommend the Dairy Queen on Lake st.!“

“The food was good. I ordered 2 grilled chicken sandwiches at around 9pm from the drive through. The order took not even 5 minutes and it was so good. You could tell everything was fresh and of high quality. Also, both the drive through window girl and the gentleman that walked out my order to me were nice. Good job Culver's!“

“Nice little spot with great outdoor seating and a cozy little interior. The board games available inside is a nice touch. Ordered the slushy and it was pretty solid. However, I would not recommend ordering any of the sundaes other than maybe the banana split. Portion sizes for those are a bit small and I found the price tag of nearly 8 dollars to be unreasonable especially for soft serve ice cream. Besides that though jts a great spot and I would definitely recommend it!“

“the best ice sceam for all ages🥰“

“girls are very friendly and portions are very decent 👏🙌💥🎊🎉“

“Amazing ice cream !♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️“
