9 Best Ice Cream Shops near Washington

“This nostalgic gem in Sunnyland has been around long before I was here. It’s a delicious treat, a tad expensive, but better than DQ.Note;They blend the pieces of treats in their wizards a bit too much to the point there aren’t enough bites in it. Some people may like it that way, I don’t.It’s rich and creamy, and their cheese curds are amazing. Worth the stop!“

“I work at a doctors office & a patient treated us to several bags of Holland’s popcorn. Absolutely the best! Cheddar & Dill is delicious. Cheese & Carmel better than Garrets popcorn in Chicago.“

“I used to come here all the time when I was in high school and ever since I moved away whenever we are here for a visit I always stop here and bring my kids! The popcorn is the best! The ice cream is great and there are so many candy choices!!“

“Ha! Just went to get the 2 for $5 combo. I told them no topping on the sundae and they wouldn't give it to me as part of the 2/$5 deal unless I ordered a topping! That makes sense! lol!!!“

“The only thing I think that could have been better with our experience is the wait at the cashier/counter. There was a lengthy line, and there were others on staff that could have helped. This would have sped things up a little. The young lady who was taking orders did her best and was very professional and kind.“

“The pulled pork sandwich and tenderloin are some of the best I’ve ever had, along with their chocolate shake! The service is excellent and we drive from Washington, IL because my husband and I like the food so much.“

“ROC has incredible ice cream/ atmosphere. Not to mention fresh new turf on the put course - highly recommend!!!“

“We love coming here. Great service, really good food, and friendly staff. Their burgers and fries are way better than McDonald's and Burger King. So are the chili cheese fries.“

“I visited Culver’s and really enjoyed their signature ButterBurger and crispy cheese curds—they were hearty, juicy, and tasted fresh. The frozen custard dessert was creamy and delightful, but my fries arrived slightly soggy and felt lukewarm by the time I ate them. The atmosphere is casual and clean, the kind of friendly Midwestern fast-casual spot that feels reliable and welcoming. Overall, it was tasty and satisfying with just a few small service hiccups“
