Ice Cream Shops near Wauconda

“Tried Julie's for the first time and it was so exciting!From the photos we were not sure about how many ice cream flavors to expect, but we were shocked!So many amazing and creative flavors to choose from and try too.I got a small strawberry and chocolate and my husband got a medium Guanabana (soursop).Sooooo gooood!Also, the two ladies working were absolutely welcoming and sweet.“

“I asked one of the wonderful women on shift to triple the amount of whatever I wanted for the blizzard. She DELIVERED!! She made that blizzard with her soul. I wish I caught her name, but she told me she liked my nails so if that rings a bell for any employee girl I love you and you deserve a raise. Hands down amazing job!“

“The owners deliver pure magic to both children and adults alike! It truly is a happy place, you can feel it as soon as you walk in. The Peach smoothie was excellent and I look forward to trying more, there were many sorbets and ice cream flavors to choose from. The creations in ice cream that we received were works of art and joy. Highly recommended from a local parent’s social media group and delivered 100%! We will definitely work this into our routine. Pure joy. A Palatine treasure.“

“There is a reason the line is always long here, the ice cream is amazing and it is affordable for the whole family. It may take you a few visits to perfect your order, but it is well worth it. I always go for the PB Sundae with chocolate ice cream.“

“My family and I have been there several times since their opening. Everything is always great, they are extremely helpful no matter how many custom things you ask for, the food is wonderful with a lot of options you don't see anywhere else. We intend to keep going over and over again. Out top pick when we want to go out for ice cream.“

“Just visited for the first time and it will not be the last. I was not sure what to get and our server, Bella, recommended the Snow Day. It is a soft serve and slushy mixed together---Delishous. My husband got a traditional sugar cone, his was also excellent. It was great that the had vegan options. Service was excellent and the store was clean.“

“So glad to see Rita's is back open for the season! The place is perfectly located - cute as can be - has some seating inside and out (not a lot) and the friendliest staff that are so helpful in giving you tastes and ideas of all the combos available!!! I had mango italian ice with vanilla soft serve custard and WOW! Yummo! give it a try - you will not be disappointed!“

“Cute shop! People working there are very nice and friendly! I got the exhausted parent in a small cup. It was delish to say the least. Only reason im not giving a 5 stars is because I did not see all the flavors listed online there to choose from. Overall a good spot, Will be back.“

“Love love their rainbow cone. Found this location closer and went just for a drive and ate the rainbow cone. I love their chocolate flavor very much. This location in Lakemoor also has Chocolate Sundae and banana split. They also have catering services. Check their website. Must try!!“

“Our son, Parker has worked at Nekter for almost a year now. He actually loves working there, and that’s all you can ask from your 18-year-old son. Loren and Brandon, the owners, really care about these kids and the same with the quality of food they make fresh every day. Having a son who works at Nekter has also afforded us the opportunity to try virtually everything on the menu. Yes, we are real customers but mostly we just love healthy food that tastes really good. If you’ve ever had a smoothie from a chain place, you’ll instantly know the difference. Our favorite things are their Chia pudding w pumpkin and a Popeyes Açaí are ridiculous. You know when your teenager makes homemade cashew milk at home… reminds you that you live in Barrington but also that the universe is working!“

“Good choice for toppings on vanilla or chocolate soft serve ice cream. Soft serve was good quality but instantly turns runny in mostly anything other than a cone (eg sundae). Personally I'm a custard guy though and would rather have ice cream flavors instead of toppings. Next time we'll have to try their shaved ice.“

“Friendly, smiling, helpful staff. Refreshing sweet and savory goodies, what more can you ask for? Once you get a taste of a mangonada, you will firever crave it. Delicious, generous mangonadas and agua frescas. A cozy, clean, colorful atmosphere. Finding a La Michoacana, especially in the summertime, is like finding a sweet, tropical oasis in your neck of the woods.“

“Very good bubble tea here from the popular local limited chain within Lake County.Kudos to the owner and interior decorator(s) for creating a sleek & chill atmosphere! Definitely a great place to kick back and enjoy some boba.Extensive array of flavors & mix-ins and I apologize if I can't get into detail about food being at any of the locations I've only ever had bubble tea.Only disadvantage of this chain which doesn't drag down a 5⭐️ rating is one size only for the boba tea which is pretty tall and my kids never even come close to finishing.The main reason I come here is for my boys who are 3 and 8 years old and are always well worth the treat.My older son always wants his own and refuses to share with the lil one so my wife always ends up sharing with our youngest if the venue only has one size and if it's too big.I always strive to support local and I hope for continued success & prosperity for the owner(s).“

“Usually great service and people, but you guys missed the mark tonight. The delivery person outside tried to give me at least 3 different orders that weren’t ours, and when we got home the chicken nuggets were missing the sauce, and the chili was missing the toppings and sour cream. Not a great outing tonight.“

“I love this place! The ice cream is delicious. They just added a full food menu. The staff is amazing. So kind and thoughtful. Brought tables outside so we can eat with our dogs. The Sunday tamales are surprisingly very good (most tamales are not that great). I am so happy this place exists so close to home. Recommend 100%“

“In Round Lake we're lucky enough to have three Michoacanas but this one next to Olandos is hands down the best of the three. Why? -Awesome customer service -Quick service -Everything is prepared without skimping -Fresh ingredients -Get samples of all ice creams (which you can get at the other ones but sometimes the employees at the other ones get kind of annoyed if you ask for more than a couple) If you're in Round Lake definitely stop by here to pick up some fresh ice cream, tortas, refreshers and more Mexican food creations.“

“Dairy Queen is one of my all-time favorites and my life. I always go there and get the banana split. It is one of my favorite things in the world and oh boy, does dairy Queen make it so enticing that I just keep coming back for more and more. I probably have had seven banana splits and the last week.Parking: It's somewhat difficult to park in there because you're trying to right off of main road. And usually it's all backed up and you'll be sitting in the main road waiting to get in there. But I got to say it's worth the wait. They do have plenty of parking though if you would like to park. There's two different entrances but that's most definitely accessible. Just sometimes hard to find a spot to parkKid-friendliness: It's very cuz of friendly all the food there is fresh made for you. My daughter loves dairy Queen. I share my banana split with her sometimes. And oh boy it's like I can't even eat it for myself but it's okay, sharing is caring.“

“The texture of the ice cream was nothing short of perfection – velvety, creamy, and rich. I opted for a double scoop of salted caramel and dark chocolate, and I was immediately transported to a realm of decadent bliss with the first bite. The flavors were robust and well-balanced, showcasing a meticulous attention to detail in the crafting process.Beyond the traditional offerings, the parlor also boasted a variety of unique toppings that allowed patrons to customize their desserts. From artisanal fruit compotes to indulgent chocolate chip, the possibilities for creating a personalized masterpiece were endless.The staff at the parlor were not only friendly but also knowledgeable about the different flavor profiles, making recommendations based on individual preferences. Their passion for the craft was evident, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to the overall experience.Prices were reasonable considering the quality and craftsmanship of the ice cream, making it accessible to a broad spectrum of dessert enthusiasts. The generous portion sizes ensured that even the most voracious sweet tooth would leave satisfied.In conclusion, this ice cream parlor is a gem in the dessert landscape of the city. Whether you're a connoisseur seeking unique flavor combinations or a casual visitor craving a classic scoop, this establishment is sure to leave a lasting impression. I left with a contented palate, a satisfied sweet tooth, and the certainty that I had discovered a new favorite spot for indulging my love of ice cream.“

“I have come to this candy shop for the last 10 years. That should speak for itself. If it doesn't, I'll say more:I absolutely love chocolate malts. Any place I go that has them, I always order one. SweetSpot makes the most INCREDIBLE malt I have ever had anywhere, and not once in 10 years has it been less than amazing! I took a friend a few months ago, telling them that the malts are the best and she was skeptical. Had one sip and said it was "50/10."However, if you aren't into malts, there are many other things to love. They have the widest variety of candies I have ever seen at one shop, plus some types of candy that I haven't seen anywhere else in 15 years, not to mention soda in actual glass bottles! Good luck finding those in your local grocery store! It seems impossible to find a real *candy* store anymore, as opposed to a store with a candy section.If you're in the area, SweetSpot is a must-visit. I'm moving several hours away tomorrow, but you can be sure that any time I come back to visit, I'll be stopping here for a malt!“

“I came here and they have delicious bubble tea and frozen yogurt, they also have many options for toppings. I purchased the lychee boba and it was so delicious! The place is very clean to. However the hours are a bit odd they open pretty late but they close late to which is convenient. Overall great place!“

“We used this location as a meeting spot to interview a potential wedding planner. Very clean and quiet Culver's restaurant. The restaurant staff was not quite as accommodating as the Waukegan-Fountain Square location, but we received what we ordered and enjoyed our time there.“

“Stopped in for a late lunch by myself. The cashier who took my order was unbelievably polite, happy and great to talk to. He was the best Culver's employee I've ever run into... And I'm at other locations weekly. I truly appreciated the small talk and kind vibe. Food was good. Temperature inside was on the chilly side. But overall a pretty good visit. Look forward to stopping in there again when I get the chance.“

“Delicious homemade ice creams and novelties. I tried the water-based cucumber ice cream and it is so wonderful and I can't wait to get it again! The only thing is that there wasn't a place to sit but we found a chair across the street at the grocery store.“
