43 Best Ice Cream Shops near Elkridge

“We just opened our ice cream shop a few days ago (and we serve Hershey’s Ice Cream, of course!) and have received so many positive comments and reviews - both in-store and online - about the the taste, quality and variety. Very happy with this product! Only complaint is we’re going through it too fast 🤣“

“Customer service was excellent, and the store was clean. I just wish there was more space to sit inside.“

“🤤 AMAZING blueberry cheesecake!! 🫐“

“Great service. Friendly people. The best Smowballs in town.“

“Delicious and authentic, fresh Indian style ice cream. For those who are not familiar, Indian ice cream is less sweet and more dense and creamy than the stuff we usually eat here in the US. Also lots of unique delicious flavors! In addition to standards like cookies and cream, mint chocolate chip, cookie dough etc, some really tasty different ones like Alphonso Mango, kulfi, rose, pistachio saffron. Also don’t miss the deliciousness that is the Falooda. So stoked that Kwality is now in the area!“

“Great customer service! Good pricing. Hidden gem. Saw them shared with Nomastic Baltimore instagram decided to drive 30 minutes to give them a try“

“Presentation of the desserts is on point! I got reeses pieces nachos. The chips were cannoli shells. The pb sauce was great. The ice cream itself was mediocre. I wish it was higher quality ice cream. Plenty of indoor seating on a brisk, cold day. Also a small arcade for kids. Nice location to help revitalize Old Ellicott City.“

“Stopped in Monday night (February 23 2026) Ice cream was great. The associate at the time was awesome and very kind. We really appreciate them.“

“Amazing ice cream!! Lots of different flavors!!“

“An absolutely perfect end to any evening, The Charmery consistently has good flavors and quick service. Be warned that there isn't really anywhere to sit inside, but there are a few benches nearby to sit and enjoy. They even sell little pucks of dog ice cream!“

“Great workers great owners great store! Best gelato on the street come by and check it out“

“Great way to cool off on a 97 degree day! Kavern Kaos w twist, peanut butter and Oreos! #wheresaaroneating“

“Very good ice cream and great mission too!“

“My experience was great every-time I visit but my last visit 10/2025 , the person that took my order was on break came around the counter and took my order and then he proceed to make my food with no gloves , and I watch him prepare my food without washing his hand or wearing gloves , so I literally pay for a sandwich I will not eat , instead of causing a seen , Im leaving this message hoping yall change the procedure and wash your hands, and wear gloves to prepare people food or aleast one of these things, you handling money and immediately handling food is not good business practice!!“

“Stopped by for a late outdoor dinner. Ordered at the window and staff was amazing and friendly. Amira was especially friendly. We were devastated you ran out of cotton candy ice cream, but we still had a great night with great service.“

“As with all airport versions, it's more expensive than its regular counterpart.
But they were quickly, friendly, and they didn't skimp on the serving size.

Danyelle was friendly and helpful at the register.
The guy who made my Sunday, Von, was an artist. He did a fantastic job.“

“I have a birthday in December and I am pretty happy about that since I can use my birthday reward as an excuse to eat ice cream in my car in December! You'd think that after all the Christmas cookies I ate this week that I would avoid Gingerbread Man ice cream. Nope! It's soooo tasty! Thanks for the birthday treat!“

“Cold Stone Creamery is our go-to ice cream spot! The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and there’s a great variety of flavors and mix-ins to choose from. I love that they change things up periodically so there’s always something new to try. The team does a great job engaging with kids and making the experience fun for everyone. Highly recommend!“

“Always great crabs 🦀 at B&B !“

“They had quite the selection of peppermint bark ice creams which are hard to find my tip is to get it in a cone not the dish like I have pictured I would skip the candy coated ones and get a plain cone the candy chocolate coated ones are more for decoration and Doolittle for the taste and I would go with a double cone prices are extremely reasonable and let's face it this is a high-quality product“

“I really enjoy with with Matcha drink tonight“

“I was Dashing in the area and needed a break. Found them when searching for Ice Cream in the area. Absolutely delicious! The girl behind the counter was a champ dealing with a customer ahead of me that was a bit demanding. I had the Old Bay Caramel as a shake and it was perfect. Salted Caramel with a touch of heat. Loved it! Will definitely be going back for a pint of Matcha when I'm back in the area.“

“I love the snowballs. The customer service can be good some days but today 7/01/25 @6pm. It was apparent she didn’t want to be there. I’ve always purchased the XL even after the price went to $7.90. But I will not pay $8.80 because they charge $.90 for using cash app. $9.00 for a snowball is ridiculous. Back to Jamba Juice I go.“

“This was a great restaurant to stop by during my layover in Baltimore! I was quite starving, but I didn’t want a big meal or junk food because of my upcoming flight.
This place offered an excellent strawberry banana smoothie that helped quench my hunger. A small was 7 dollars.
It was nice getting to watch them peel the banana, which helped ensure its freshness.
The smoothie itself was delicious and sweet with the two flavors popping out every couple sips.
Overall, great place, and if I’m ever stuck in Baltimore with a growling stomach again, I will be sure to return.

*I took a picture halfway through drinking it because I realized it was so good. They did not give it to me half empty.“

“Clean store,good customer service. Friendly staff , that is helpful and answers questions .make recomindations of products. Really enjoy the chocolate section of this store too.“

“Great chicken salad sandwich! One sandwich was enough for two meals, thanks and keep up the great work!“

“This was the best sub place ever. I had a chocolate shake, fries, and BBQ sub to die for. The best! THANK YOU LAUREN FOR THE AWESOME HOSPITALITY AND AMAZING FOOD!“

“Love this place! The crepes and all ingredients are fresh and prepared well. Always fast and friendly. Never a bad experience!“

“Kind Service and The Island Passion Ice was soo Good!!!“

“excelente sabor para disfrutar en tiempo caliente“

“Delicious vanilla yogurt with fudge is the best“

“A friend brought us a sample pack of four cupcakes. What a treat! Moist and delicious cupcakes with unbelievable toppings. I'm not a fan of overly sweet toppings so I was pleased to see that these were not. Just right!“

“The avocado bacon burger was very good. The fries were so-so without sauce, okay with ketchup. The cheese sauce for the cheese fries tasted very artificial, but we ordered it on the side so we were able to use ketchup for dipping instead. My son reported that the chicken nuggets were also good. The strawberry lemonade was VERY sweet.

Ordering is done purely by kiosk, but customizing orders was easy enough.“

“We got the funnel cakes and snowballs. Both were really good and worth the drive from east to west Baltimore. The funnel cakes we made to order and were very tasty. The snowballs were authentic and the syrup used wasn’t watery or flavorless. We are definitely going back. I’ve been looking for a place that serves funnel cakes all year long. Also they have a walk up window and a drive through.“

“I go here all the time for Taro Milk Tea!!

Tapioca: I like that they pre cook their tapioca (bubbles) where a lot of other places that offer tapioca as a topping serve it fresher out of the heat which means a lot of times they undercook or overcook their tapioca and it's still hot even in the ice. I like that with Tutti Frutti, they have a more standardized way of cooking their tapioca and ensuring it is cooked properly.

I also really like the portions and the consistency. Every time I get the same order it tastes the same and I love that.

The staff can be sometimes distracted which is awkward for me sometimes but overall they do a good job“

“I had a great experience today on 3/09! The girl working the front was lovely and inviting on the phone and in person, and the gelati was delicious as always. I really appreciate that they had the flavors posted online as well. Will definitely be back!“

“It was my first time coming here for pho, and they did not disappoint! I ordered takeout, and they absolutely did not skimp on the portions. You can even see in the photo — I hadn’t poured all of the broth in yet, and the bowl was already filled almost to the brim!

I really appreciated how clean and flavorful the broth tasted. Everything was fresh and delicious. I’ll definitely be coming back again!“

“price its cheap and bread its biger than other store.“

“Great cheesesteaks and wedges, and the pizza’s good, too. The people here are really friendly, and you can get dang near any flavor of shake that you want.“

“Best ice cream I had. Sorry it isn’t open all year“

“Overall enjoyable; we got two sundaes: Peach Cobbler and Strawberry Sundae, which we liked better than the peach.STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE SUNDAEThe strawberry compote is the winner here since you get this sweet syrupy fresh strawberry flavor running through the strawberry ice cream and the graham cracker crumbles don't get moistened by everything going on, maintaining their satisfyingly crumbly texture.PEACH COBBLER SUNDAEGood overall but having a vanilla ice cream base means needing quite a bit going on to make sure you don't just taste vanilla which unfortunately was a lot of what I tasted. The bottom had the peach compote/peaches (which either are canned or simmered as whole slices to make the compote since they were very tender and syrupy). The top had some drizzle which was good but gone after you get that initial layer of ice cream. Not much else texture wise to provide contrast. Maybe use peaches and cream ice cream? Or integrate peaches into the vanilla?The ice cream in general is good - nothing outstanding, but classic and yummy. It's hard to make bad ice cream and it was honestly enjoyable!“

“My grand daughter loves boba tea, yesterday was my first b time trying it, and I must say. It was rather good.“
