28 Best Ice Cream Shops near Rochester

“I always have such a great experience at Captain Bonnie’s Ice Cream Shop! This place is a perfect mix of delicious food, great prices, and a welcoming atmosphere. The food is fantastic, and their sundaes and milkshakes are definitely a highlight—so tasty and made just right every time. There’s something for everyone, whether you’re stopping in for a quick treat or a full snack. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Lauryn and Sarah. They both go out of their way to make customers feel welcome and taken care of, which really adds to the overall experience. One of the best parts is how affordable everything is—you get great quality without breaking the bank. Plus, the play area for kids is amazing! It makes this spot perfect for families, giving kids a fun place to enjoy while parents can relax. Captain Bonnie’s is such a gem. Great food, great people, and a great environment—I highly recommend checking it out!“

“Pretty awesome little stop. Got two fish and chips. The gentleman working there was pleasant and funny, like that quirky uncle you only see once a year at Thanksgiving.
Fish was cooked perfect, xtra thick filet, i didnt ask but i think it was cod, generous portion of fries.
Will be back to try out more of the menu and shakes.

Parking: Huge parking area next to outdoor seating“

“Spumoni ice cream The best I've ever tasted. The pistachio held real large pistachios, the cherry ice cream was something I've never tasted and the chocolate out of this world. All topped with a reduction of a sweet dessert red wine. Delicious enough to be served as a gourmet dessert. Amaze your guests or treat your family. Out of this world!“

“I would recommend Tom & Jimmy’s on 44 Winthrop Street 100%!! My daughter has a tree nut allergy and every time I mention it they go out of their way to wash the utensils, hands, and put on gloves! I really appreciate how far they go for my little one! We have been turned down at other local ice cream places! But here never once and we go quite often!! I appreciate all the girls that work there and appreciate how safe they are! ❤️“

“The amazing ice cream and the excellent service. Bry is so welcoming and kind.“

“Went here with my family and it was great! It took a bit for the food to get here but it was SO yummy! I got a cheeseburger with bacon and I could tell it was nice and fresh. The burger buns were soft and the patties were flavorful! After we had our lunch, we got our ice cream. I got a Minnie Mouse Sundae and it was delicious! You can choose which ice cream flavor you want with it, and in my opinion I think oreo is the best! There were crunchy and sweet oreo chunks that were very good! And the view of the farm was VERY pretty, The farm was huge! It was nice enjoying a nice meal with a nice setting. I definitely recommend John George Farm and Ice Cream Shop. It's a perfect place to go for lunch and ice cream!“

“It's soft ice cream and Dairy Queen. What's not to like? You'll always get good service, although it's so very busy over there you might not always get that warm fuzzy feeling. My feelings on that? I've done that job and customers can be jerks. So grab your treat, move into the parking lot and get your warm fuzzies from your ice cream“

“Excellent cookies and great service. The pink sugar cookie is the household favorite. The weekly options of varies cookies and brownies keeps us coming back. The new Dubai Biscoff Brownie... we made a 2nd trip to get another one before it disappeared for the week.“
