16 Best Ice Cream Shops near Forest Hill

“Sanjeev and staff are great! They always make us feel welcome and we frequent the establishment at least 14 times in a week! They know us (obviously) and greet us with a smile every time! So happy that they are so close! Keep up the good work Sanjeev and staff!“

“Rita's is excellent. They have many flavor options daily that include several sugar-free ice flavors. The unfortunate thing is that it usually melts before you can finish it. When I spoke with the person serving us, she offered a second larger cup to help with the mess and serve as some extra insulation. This was very helpful for my kids and my sanity. Because of this, I left a tip, which brings me to my final thoughts. A place like this should not be asking for tips. The employees should be paid at least minimum wage. Tipped employees make less than minimum wage, which is why you tip at full service restaurants.“

“We love prigels so much. We go every week! Not only are the staff SO friendly but it’s family owed business and you definitely feel that love. We had a dog that was crossing the rainbow bridge so I went there to pick up some ice cream as a treat. The girl working saw me sobbing, asked and then paid for the ice cream out of her own pocket. Literally. Pulled her wallet out and paid for it. Just a small prime example as to why they’re the best!“

“MacKenzie Dunaway is a great shift manager“

“Broom’s Bloom Dairy is such a special place! It’s a family-run gem that offers some of the best homemade ice cream around, along with light café fare that’s always fresh and delicious. They also sell local beef, pork, lamb, chicken, cheese, and milk—perfect for supporting local farms and bringing home quality products. One of my favorite parts is the beautiful sunflower field in the summer—it’s the perfect spot to take photos and just enjoy the scenery. Highly recommend stopping by for a treat and some fresh air!“

“great environment, friendly employees, chill atmosphere, & fix as much ice cream and toppings as you can as long as you can pay for them!! AWESOME 👍👍👍👍👍“

“Great service. The triple chocolate brownie was very good!“

“The best ice cream spot around. The customer service cannot be matched, and the ice cream is second to none! They make some awesome gourmet milkshakes that will blow you away. A staple to our community!!“

“They are the best ice creams“

“Staff was amazing. Place was clean. I didn’t experience any unsanitary issues and or notice any hygiene concerns with the staff on duty that day. All the cookie flavors we chose were exceptionally amazing and delicious. The one cookie I wanted was not ready at the time if I had extra time to wait I would have. However we went with an alternative flavor and it was delicious. It was not our favorite because we aren’t big peanut butter fans but there was nothing wrong with the cookie itself. It would be nice if a restroom was available for customers. Otherwise, this was my first visit and I can’t say anything less than how satisfied I was and I will be returning!“

“great little place they're just starting out with expansion planned for the future. give them a chance my daughter and I will be back.“

“Great Service! I believe his name was Tyler who served us. My apologizes if my memory is incorrect. My sister’s boyfriend was extremely indecisive since it was his first time there. He was not understanding of certain flavors or sizes. Tyler was extremely patient with him and explained everything. We are so grateful he kept his cool and gave awesome service!! I got a blendini and as always, it was Blend-Tastic ??

Vegetarian options: Everything is Vegetarian. If you are Vegan, I would recommend not getting anything with the custard. If I remember correctly they have a dairy free option. But I would ask more about that.

Dietary restrictions: They have sugar free options which is a plus!“

“Love Rita’s and thanks to the young man who was oh so pleasant tonight serving me and my kids, very patient as they were unsure what they wanted!“

“Small ice cream shop adjacent to Vagabond, serving Broom’s Bloom ice cream and cookies. No seating and shop only fits about 4/5 customers before out the door.

Got an ice cream sandwich with Nutella drizzle and got diabetes immediately after. Ice cream and cookie were okay — a little above average. Wish the cookie stayed chewier without snapping/crumbling.“

“I just went to Sweet Frog in Bel Air on Tuesday, Sept 23rd. The place was hoppin', but the line was moving along quickly. I noticed the counters were spotless--no crumbs! The employees were friendly, too. I had the Cinnamon Toast Crunch froyo (GET THIS!!!) and I added granola, and some chocolate chips! Delish! We sat down to enjoy our treats and after the rush was over, the employee behind the counter wasted no time. They came around and were sweeping the floor asking how our treats were. This was only my 2nd time here, but believe you me----if you keep that Cinnamon Toast Crunch froyo and this store as clean as I saw it, I will be back!! Thank you, Sweet Frog! Next time, I'm bringing my granddaughter!!“

“My son and I went to get milkshakes and there was the sweetest girl named Morgan who made them for us. She was so kind and truly brightened our day. Morgan put smiles on our faces and we both said we wanted to come back the next day and hoped we would see her again. Our pumpkin patch milkshakes were delicious too!!! Thank you Brusters of Bel Air for your exceptional service- please share our gratitude and tell Morgan how much we appreciated her kindness!!! Hope to see you all soon!!“
