50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Wheeling

“I have now tried the custard pie with caramel sauce. It could be served in any fine dining restaurant with pride. The chocolate she uses for dipping strawberries is very high quality. Not plastic tasting at all.“

“Thanks! It was fun! My kids loved it!“

“Received a box of 6 for birthday and very much enjoyed them. Some were still warm and yummy. Cookies were delivered without a bag, just box. Box had a security sticker which was peeled open although all cookies looked good. That is why I took away one star.“

“Honestly, this was amazing pizza. We had the Chicken Tikka and wasn't too sure how it would taste but it was actually really good! I would recommend it to anyone. The owner really cared for what he put out and man he did not disappoint.“

“Really great selection of flavors (ice creams and juices). The ice cream is soft and flavorful and delicious! You will find some classics, a lot of Mexican flavors and also a lot of seasonal flavors. The variety and the amount of options is really great and you will definitely find a match for you there (if not several). The girl who served us was very nice and helpful with our choices. The prices are not so sweet as the products so is not a place to go back as often as desirable.“

“This place is really cute. I wanted some bubble tea and I found it first on maps. There was an odd smell when I walked in but it was very clean. No one was there but there was a little kiosk to order. I put in my order and sat down. They got me my order within 5 mins and I left. The boba was soft and sweet and the tea was Sweet and nice. I wouldn't go out of my way to get to this store but if I'm in the area and I want some bubble tea, I'll stop by.“

“Amazing customer service. William was kind and patient and explained the menu to us even though they were closing in 15 minutes. Will definitely tell my friends. I loved how they had the ingredients clearly listed like gmo free and gluten free and The atmosphere is also very nice and comfortable hoping to come back soon.

“The Greatest Custard In The World in texture, taste and freshness! Greg is a genius of a restauranteur and the nicest guy you're ever going to meet!“

“Tasty, tasty, tasty! Husband and I both loved our choices!“

“The girl working there was so kind. She went over all the flavors and toppings with us and what a personality! Kudos to the Niles location!!!!!“

“Stopped by amorino since I had a bit of time and I absolutely loved it! As a first timer I had no clue what I was doing but I had Lisa help me , she was amazing at recommending flavors and very patient with any questions I had. Definitely coming back again!!“

“WOW WOW WOW !!! AMAZING cookies and so beautiful too“

“Cool local ice cream joint in Park Ridge serving lots of options of ice cream and they also sell merch.

Nice fast friendly customer service - the ambiance is of any standard ice cream shop.

Worth checking out for ice cream!“

“best ice ever. many taste, friendly workers. good price“

“I always go there with the kids & we love it!! Nice & clean & the yogurt is very delicious with lots of toppings to choose from!!“

“This location is a bit small but good. I really like the miffy collaboration! I also really liked the vanilla and peach flavors here.

Some of the flavors are really good. The tea flavors are really strong, so that might be good or bad, depending on what you are looking for (at night I was not looking for a strong tea flavor, but I would be happy for it in the afternoon). At the very least some of the flavors are just mid, but not terrible. They just didn't hit the spot at the time. At least the miffy-shaped ice cream was really cute!

The soft serve was good too. I tried Pandan and Mango I think. The Mango flavor was nice and sweet. The Pandan was good too, but not as sweet as I thought it would be. I think that's a good thing because people don't like it as sweet or artificial tasting. Although that night I was really looking for more sweet flavors, and the Pandan didn't hit it for me atm, I can say its pretty solid quality (I can say this because I tried other desserts with Pandan extract, and they have an interesting artificial taste to them. That artificial taste was not there). So still A+.

But man, their waffle cones are really good! I tried the midnight vanilla and the orange creamcicle cones. The midnight vanilla was great, although I forgot exactly how it tasted like (cause I was more focused on the peach flavored ice cream with it, which was amazing!) The orange creamcile one really tasted like an orange cream ice cream put into a cone.

Yeah, when I went here, I got two cones of ice cream and one cone of soft serve ?

I bought a pint from here and found that it melted relatively quickly. Also, the pint ice cream is not as creamy as maybe some other places that I had in California, like Salt and Straw, Smitten's or Humphry Slocombe. I would come here mainly for the unique flavors. Try the Hokkaido Brown Sugar or the Chinese Almond Cookie flavors. Those are some of my favorite!

I didn't rate for atmosphere because although it was well designed it was small there was no wifi :(. Other Kurimu locations are bigger. But I don't want to rate them down because of this.“

“I love the halo -halo but I hope the customer service will get better. The person who took my orders seems like she wasn’t glad I made an order and not so welcoming. Good customers service is A Must to attract more patron js . Thanks“

“Fantastic service! Delicious ice cream! Highly recommend!“

“SMOOTH FLAVORED YOGURT!Healthy alternative to sugary treats :)We were in the mall and happened to stumble upon this place. It’s a nice spot for hangouts. Great flavors and toppings. The gentleman at the front was very polite and friendly. He walked me through the steps for purchasing a cup. My son enjoyed the mango and strawberry yogurt topped with popping bobas.“

“This Glenview, Illinois most Iconic Building!! Everyone in Glenview cant wait for the first sign of Spring--and the ♥Dairy Bar provides that for us every year!!“

“Came here with the first time with my wife and we absolutely loved it! The food was very unique; It was a fusion of Mexican, Korean, and Indian food. We ordered the Korean BBQ tacos and the chicken tikka pizza. Food came out fresh and right out of the oven. The customer service was also exceptional. The owner was very accommodating despite there being a large party before us. After having our food, we made our way to the ice cream station. They had so many flavors!!! From green tea, ube, strawberry cheesecake, Cookie Monster, etc. They even had specialty popsicles that I can only get when I’m in California or Mexico. This place is a gem. I wish I would have gone to this place sooner. My wife and I will definitely be going back!“

“Staff is always friendly and answer any of your questions. The popsicles come in even more flavors than the already vast ice cream choices. Just beware that some of the popsicles taste icy or have weak flavor. The ones that have cream/milk inside are much better.“

“Beautiful neighborhood !! Cute seating arrangement..delicious flavors . We tried the strawberry and Zanzibar chocolate !! Both the flavors were great . Best thing was that these flavors had no eggs. Many other flavors are also available without egg . Just ask the server for the allergen and they have a detailed menu .“

“Love this place! I’m from Wisconsin but life close to the Illinois boarder. I came across this gem while driving by. We stopped and order food- and then went back up to the window to order a few more times. The staff were very sweet and time efficient. Their creamsicle soft serve cone is to die for! We’ll be back!“

“it was some of the most delicate, creamy, not too sweet, delectable and awe-inspiring custard i’ve ever had. i would 100000% visit again. while eating this masterpiece i feel as though i have achieved enlightenment. below is attached is evidence of my enjoyment.“

“Ice cream is the best around“

“Best burgers in the area!“

“Caps never disappoints! Love cosmic cookie the best…hard to find anything to even compare. The kids scooping make the trip even better. If you happen to run into Lucas, he always has a smile on his face and is so helpful. Thanks!“

“I went there 'cause people said they had the classic vibes of what Dairy Queen was at its begginning. Well... they exceeded my expectations. The service is a 20/10 and as soon as you get in the place, you can feel how you get transported to the past. Love the pics of its begginings on the wall. Gonna go back when I visit Chicago again.“

“it is a great ice cream parlor“

“Can never go wrong with their cookies!!! We love them! I do wish the service was faster and the atmosphere was more enjoyable or entertaining. It's quite boring and can be uncomfortable waiting in a long line, packed in a small area at the front of the store.“

“This store has amazing matcha! My favorite drink is the Matcha Ichigo Latte (matcha strawberry). It's never very crowded so the turnaround is quick. They do have milk alternatives, oatmilk and soy milk, if you ask since it's not listed on the menu.“

“The peppermint frozen yogurt cake was delicious! The perfect Christmas dessert!“

“Excellent ice cream and fudge!!“

“We had an exceptional experience at Oberweis Dairy, thanks to the outstanding service from Jose. He was incredibly patient, even taking the time to show me the actual size of the scoops and providing spot-on recommendations, including which flavor would be the least sweet for my child. The staff was also incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always smiling, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this location!“

“So so so good! We got pizza and ice cream. Both were perfect! We are so excited for summer with many dinners here!“

“savory or sweet you choose. more than just ice cream ... crepes. fruit cups , add some lime & spice omg. fiesta in the mouth.“

“Really good ice cream at fairly low prices. Never tried the food, only ice cream, but everything I've gotten so far has been really good! Nice staff, and fun options for exclusive flavors that change every month!

Parking: This DQ is in a crowded plaza, so parking can be tough to find

Kid-friendliness: Nice staff who care about you, and your kids“

“We love these cookies! The chocolate chip is always a family favorite but we like the fun of the variety too. Curbside or delivery service are a huge plus!

Vegetarian options: Dessert!

Parking: Huge lot. Dedicated spots for curbside service.

Kid-friendliness: Nowhere to eat inside. But the flavors are always exciting for the kids. Especially the extras like shark gummies.“

“My favorite DQ! My son is currently obsessed with DQ and he likes this area because the seating is right next to the road. The staff has always been great, too!My cup of sprinkles fell while leaving and they replaced my cup for free! ?Sometimes tricky to get in/out of the lot, but otherwise love it!“

“As a self-proclaimed boba connoisseur and lover of local businesses, I was hoping to add another to my growing list of affordable, quality, and quaint boba joints.

Instead, I opted to try their small selection of quality ice creams. Only 6 flavours are available, but it's extremely customisable and the staff is very accommodating.

I was absolutely blown away by the vanilla ice cream. The taste is subtle and not overpowering, but it's a fresh kind of vanilla I've never had and is sure to please all vanilla lovers. The texture of the ice cream was perfect - it didn't melt too fast, not too soft or frozen, and it was creamy but not overwhelmingly creamy. Simply put, you NEED to try it!

The individual who accommodated me was phenomenal! I unfortunately was unable to ask his name, but he took great care of my vanilla ice cream with oreos in a cake cone. Furthermore, I was able to learn more about the business and how involved they are in the community, which is always a plus.

Although I didn't try their boba, I have no doubt it's as quality as their ice cream. Overall, I love the business and am excited to come back with friends and family!

Parking: The parking is a bit small as the store itself is in downtown Deerfield and located along a busy main road (Rt43/Waukegan Rd). I can imagine during more busy hours, it'd be difficult to find good parking as, other than the small parking lot in the back, you may have to walk to the location.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid-friendly! The menu is extremely customisable, especially if you have any dietary allergies.“

“I love the new cookie releases every week. It's fun to check the app weekly to see if they have any flavors I would want to try. I'm finally rating crumble 4 stars because crumble has come out with mini versions of their cookies weekly too. The app is amazing as well because you can accru points for freebies. Sometimes, the cookies can be to raw for my taste at this location or there not enough sauces or toppings, but it just depends on the flavor and batch.“

“A very unique place for the area that offers a lot. From rolled ice cream, pudding, donuts, etc. Their main staple is the bubble tea and other milk teas which are fantastic. A variety of great toppings that really add to the complexity of flavor of each of their beverages. Definitely check them out if you are in the area.“

“Very good service... I highly recommend the place...“

“Best yogurt hands down!“

“very friendly and good food.“

“They have the best ice cream! So good I normally only eat 1 scoop but when I go here I get 2 or 3 because they're so good. The employees are so nice, especially the teenage girls. The girl with blond highlights and the girl with dark hair are so sweet! On vacation I went to a gelato place, thier gelato was FULL OF SUGAR all I tasted was sugar but here I actually taste the flavor. The flavors are so good. I 100% recommend the banana and strawberry .I would have given this place six stars but it only goes up to 5.“

“The ice cream here and creamy milk is very tasty and delicious!“
