9 Best Ice Cream Shops near Freeport

“Best Homemade Maine blueberry custard I have ever had!“

“There are so many great family-owned ice cream stands and cafes with homemade ice cream or famous Maine-made ice cream in my neck of the Maine woods (and seashore) that a chain normally pales in comparison, but Ben & Jerry's is good anywhere. I got their Coffee, Coffee BuzzBuzzBuzz (creative name) and added chocolate sprinkles to it because Ben & Jerry's has the best chocolate sprinkles ever.“

“A local delicacy. Been making the same great food for years. Always fast and friendly. And anytime you have an issue, they’re quick to fix the issue. Will always be a local favorite.“

“Delivery to you home. This is the best Gelato I've ever tasted. Their Cookies and Cream has caramel in it. Their Blueberry really tastes like Maine Blueberry Pie. I've had Gelato from Italy, and Gelato from little Italian Ice cream shops, and Mamma Lucia Pizza restaurant in DC area. This has all of them topped in flavor and lightness. Even my wife who is dairy sensitive can have it. Be careful it is shipped in dry ice. So know how to dispose of dry ice when you get it. No disposal, no touch with bare hands, no indoor storage. Or come to the store.“

“I recently had one of the lobster rolls. Fabulous!! One of the best lobster rolls I had in the entire state, worthy of a five star rating. The roll was grilled and filled with a good amount of meat. Great job Pammy... I will be back for another one next summer.“

“I live that they have so many different flavors ~ including gluten free cones and ice cream. It is definitely a place I will visit for the next 20 years 😋😋😋“

“Staff was so kind and friendly! Loved the lady who took my order and made my blizzard. It's a small little shop but a great vibe. She added extra dry gram crackers to my new York style cheesecake blizzard and it added texture that I loved just like she said it would.“

“Gifford’s HomeMaine Ice Cream absolutely nails it. This hard-serve is next-level rich and creamy, with a texture so smooth it feels indulgent from the very first bite. And they do not skimp on the inclusions—every scoop is loaded, balanced, and bursting with flavor. There’s no filler here, just consistently delicious bites from start to finish. My personal favorite is Sea Salt Caramel Truffle: perfectly salty-sweet, decadently creamy, and packed with dreamy truffle pieces. It’s the kind of ice cream that makes you slow down and savor every spoonful. Easily one of the best hard-serve ice creams out there. 🍦✨“

“Have been to Paul’s a few times including a recent launching of our j24. This truly is the friendliest marina in the Casco Bay Area! Hoping to have a mooring here next summer!“
