Ice Cream Shops near Capitol Heights

“My children and I love coming to this location for ice cream. Each time the associates have been really patient and generous with the scoops. I also appreciate the variety of ice cream flavors they offer at this location. It’s called Baskin Robbin’s 31 flavors for a reason. There’s always more than 31 flavors here and I appreciate that.“

“First time here. I was confused about how the drive in works. I think others were too which may have been why it took so long. But either way, the food was good and for a good price. Nicely seasoned fries and the rainbow slushy was delightful.“

“We were so excited to have Mr. Charles of Everyday Sundae be part of our wedding weekend. After we got engaged, we stopped by his ice cream shop that night for a treat, and from that moment, we knew we had to work with him for our special day. Having Everyday Sundae at our pre-wedding park day/cookout was such a fun and personal touch. Everyone was so surprised and absolutely loved the raspberry sorbet and Everyday Sundae’s signature bourbon truffle ice cream. It was a huge hit with our guests! Working with Mr. Charles was super easy—he’s professional, reliable, and was genuinely excited to be part of our wedding weekend. His warm personality and charm added so much to the event, and we couldn’t be happier to have included him in our wedding festivities. We love Mr. Charles and highly recommend Everyday Sundae for anyone looking to add a fun, personal touch to their event!“

“I got to try your Earl Grey tea ice cream over the summer, and recently tried your London Fog ice cream bars, and they're both awesome!! Thank you for creating these!!“

“Great service, clean, and delicious! Definitely a great treat!“

“It was delicious and the workers were very nice and respectful. I greatly appreciate and enjoyed the experience I had at this Ben and Jerry’s.“

“Nearly perfect Wisconsin style frozen custard.“

“Delicious! Interesting flavors and so good.“

“I stopped by Pitango for dessert, and it definitely hit the spot! 😋 I tried two flavors: Stracciatella (vanilla with chocolate chips) and Fondente (dark chocolate). I don't usually eat gelato, so I was pleasantly surprised by the creaminess. The service was excellent; I wasn’t sure what to choose, but the cashier helped me by offering samples and sharing details about each flavor I tried. One of the chocolate flavors I sampled was incredibly rich and chocolatey—it's water-based and vegan-friendly, which was a first for me! The restaurant was nice, clean, and had indoor seating that could accommodate several people, but I decided to take my treat to go.“

“Best ice cream ever! Been coming here for decades. I live in Florida now, but any time I’m back we go!“

“I love the hot cocoa from Dolci Gelati at the National Zoo for Zoo Lights. I bought 1 for me and 1 for a friend & went back again for a second night for more on the last night of Zoo Lights. Whipped cream, chocolate & caramel syrup is added to the top. It’s the best treat on a cold winter night or day at the zoo. Thank you!! I’ll keep coming back & bring friends.“

“I just wanted to give a shout out to this great business! They provided ice cream (with all the fixins') to my residents during our educational/wellness event. The customer service was great and the ice cream was delicious 😋. Be sure to treat yourself to them if you're ever in the area.“

“Lovely coffee shop but $5.20 for a croissant?? Seriously? The coffee is great, the service is lovely and the atmosphere is friendly. I found the palce to be a bit expensive but it's probably average by DC standards and the place was quite busy, so kudos to them on that.“

“The young lady serving us was very helpful and knew all she needed to serve us quickly and professionally. The gelato was exceptional!!“

“I was unsure of which flavor to pick and the servers were so nice and helpful! They let me sample so many flavors and recommended one as well, the sample sizes were pretty big scoops on a small spoon. I ended up choosing the hazelnut crackle and black & white cookie batter and found it to be quite yummy!“

“Don't miss out on this little gem! The employee was incredibly kind and welcoming. The ice cream was out of this world. You must try out honey graham! There was also an area to buy small-business made items such as cook books, spices, sauces, and jewelry. It is obvious that each item for sale in the little shop was chosen with care and great thought.“

“Amazing staff with an amazing mission!“

“Del Ray gem, great custard, fun daily flavors and I love that they take previous flavors and make them into gelato sandwiches. I wish the sorbet flavors were shared on the website's Flavor Forecast but other than that, no complaints! The donuts from Just Fine Donuts (inside) are also dkeicious. DG has become a regular treat for me!“

“The vegan options are great!!!“

“MDI has the most delicious ice cream and you can really taste the care and quality ingredients that go into the product. Interesting array of flavors, amazing texture and mouthfeel, and I love that this place is not afraid to get adventurous with flavors. Black Sesame--yum! At the same time, their most simple, traditional flavors are among my favorites--Strawberry and Cookies and Cream are absolutely delightful. I appreciate that this place continues to keep their prices very reasonable, especially given how crazy expensive food has gotten in 2024. The staff is helpful and kind and I love supporting this anchoring neighborhood spot! A favorite weekly tradition!“

“Love the quality of the ice cream the candy apples are amazing The fudge is outstanding.“

“First time Customer 05/12/23. My experience was great. I was very surprised at the variety of flavors, I chose Vanilla (I figured you can’t go too wrong w/ Vanilla), IT was Delicious, I can’t wait to try some of the other Flavors now, the Homemade Taste was awesome, the prices were great, the speed of service was marvelous( It was seemingly right during “rush hour”, there was a line, however, the line moved swiftly, the Helpers (Young Staff), was very flexible, friendly, patient, quick, on top of things and handled business very professionally. I was impressed. I will GO BACK and refer Friends and Family to my New Found “Custard/ Ice Cream” Place. It’s been kept a secret from me. Now I Know.“

“delicious-quick-friendly!“

“I had the olive oil ice cream!!! They drizzled some olive oil and salt on top. So so so good!
This may be the best ice cream I’ve ever had, definitely the best in DC.

There is a bit of a wait in the line, but the staff is so friendly and it’s worth the wait!“

“Delicious ice cream! Great venue!“

“My Daughter said One of the best ice cream ever.☺️“

“I was searching the universe for lavender honey ice cream as a special treat for Valentine’s Day. My wife and I had it a million moons ago in Palm Springs and we loved it so much. I came across Moorenkos and met Susan who is so, so nice. She was able to get me a nice supply of the lavender honey ice cream and we also stocked up on cinnamon cappuccino. Omg! Kim was so surprised and it made for a great treat. Thanks Susan and thanks Moorenkos! You’re The Best!!!“

“Chunky Monkey, always so yummy 👍👍“

“Very flavorful Ice cream. Service in Ft Worth, TX was great. Made for enjoyable afternoon.“

“We went for a vegan ice cream and checked their website before making the trip but when we arrived not all of the options stated were available so I had to buy a pint instead of a scoop in order to get what wasn't available.
For 1 scoop and 1 pint the total was $21.95
Maybe a bit pricey but when you need a sweet snack after 11pm you pay what they say 😆
Also, staff were very loud yelling back and forth which made it hard to enjoy our time.“

“I recommend the service, fun atmosphere, & the Variety of flavors (though in truth they should have a Dr. Ro’s Fave Flava) somebody tell the mgt.😉.“

“Love the quality of the ice cream the candy apples are amazing The fudge is outstanding.“

“Loved these! They were so delicious!“

“Funnel cake fries was the bomb as always.😜“

“Ice cream! What else can you ask for!“

“A quiet and clean shop with friendly staff. There are many ice cream flavors to choose from — I really liked the pistachio! 💚
A small cup costs $7 and comes with three scoops (you can pick three flavors).

I also bought some Middle Eastern sweets to take home — six pieces for $20. The price is quite reasonable since these desserts usually cost more due to the ingredients and the complexity of making them.
The selection isn’t huge, but everything I tried was delicious. ✨“

“Best gelato we’ve ever had in the States! Truly! This is the real deal. Highly recommend. We’ll be stalking your page with hopes that you’ll be near us again.“

“Oh the memories!! I can remember my Mom taking me for ice ream here back in the 60’s and 70’s. It was a special treat. My Mom loved their Coffee Flavored ice cream.“

“I love Tipsy Scoop, REAL BAD. Ice Cream Cocktail Mixology — 5 stars, I’ll take 100 more classes! Lumiere Ice Cream Cocktail Class was a vibe! We got to meet CEO of Lumiere, Terrence Wheeler, and sampled the vodka and infused ice cream as well. The class is from 11-1 pm so it starts and ends before the shop opens that way we aren’t interrupted during our private session. We were able to try all the flavors that are offered. They have ice cream and sorbet. You make two cocktails in class. The owner Danielle is super sweet! It’s a great class to take with friends. The ice cream is delicious as well! Next class is: ⏳11 - 1pm 💰$65 per person 📍Tipsy Scoop 675 I St NW Washington, D.C. 20001“

“I love Ritas Sundaes and their perfect customer service.“

“I’m originally from Texas and I’ve eaten Mexican paletas (popsicles) my whole life. These are among the best I’ve ever had. You can see and taste the fresh fruit—so delicious and refreshing! The mangonada is also great if you’re feeling adventurous (it’s a spicy mango Mexican treat).“

“I had the pleasure of visiting ice n slice , and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. I tried vegetarian pizza.The authentic Ethiopian flavors were rich, vibrant, and satisfying in every bite
The friendly service,bold and flavorful food, and a creative twist on pizza that sets this place apart. A must try for food lovers looking for something unique and delicious!”
I truly felt taken care of throughout my visit.

I’ll definitely be returning for my go-to Ethiopian food spot, and I highly recommend ice nd slice Eatery to anyone looking for bold ethiopian flavors and top-notch hospitality. You won’t be disappointed!“

“EVERYTHING!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍“

“Love having an affordable burger joint in the neighborhood with a gluten free option, and THANK YOU for not upcharging for dietary restrictions ♥️

The gluten free bun is decent, but a bit dry. Not amazing but I will take what I can get, and I'd rather have that than an upcharge!

Fries and ube ice cream are a nice addition as well, but those get very expensive quickly!“

“Awesome 👏🏾 I love it!! Raspberry and vanilla“

“Great customer service, great frozen custard, a drive thru, open all year round and coffee!! You cant beat that !! I highly recommend if you are in California MD!!“

“Fantastic way for both 2- and 4-legged friends to celebrate a pup’s birthday! Shantee is the best — super friendly and helpful - thank you!“

“In terms of food quality, this place is great. But the two times we’ve been there, it’s been within the last hour of closing and the smell is this place is TERRIBLE. Like truly awful. Smells like a mix of cleaning products and a portapotty. I’m not sure if they’re having plumbing issues or if it’s part of the end-of-day cleaning process, but hopefully they can address it. Yogurt and toppings are great though!“
