29 Best Ice Cream Shops near Old Orchard Beach

“This place is right on the strip. Awesome Location. Sit outside in their 2nd tier area and enjoy the views of the ocean and the amusement park. But the best has yet to come. Our server George was a notch above the rest. Guy was prompt, made us great drinks, very social, and added to what we thought was already a great time. George puts the icing on the cake. Ask him for one of his toasts and you'll be amazed. He's truly an example of great customer service. We look forward to our yearly trip to OOB. Now we look forward even more knowing George will be there and the great drinks that come with it.“

“Fabulous!! The single scoop is big big enough. Do not get as double unless you really want a lot of ice cream!!!! They've got pints to go and ice cream sandwiches custom made as you wait. Don't be intimidated by the line. They're always long and they're very quick. Unless you're in, the Drive-Thru might be slower, For the stop“

“I have been there on numerous occasions and I’ve tried so many different flavors. They just do such a great job with their ice cream very creamy, flavorful and good value.“

“Hands down the best ice cream we have ever had. Well worth the price in my opinion. The owners were so friendly! I couldn't believe how kind they were to my family and especially my little girl. We are only here for a short time, but so so happy we found this little gem!

Vegetarian options: Vegan ice cream options!“

“Thank you for providing dairy free options for my wife who cannot have dairy - I think it was called a dilly bar and she loved it. I have been enjoying Oreo Blizzards here for over 30 years as a nice cool treat - they make it the same every time!“

“Wonderful coffee the best in town plus food is exceptional!“

“YUMMMMM!!! It is hard to describe how much I loved this gelato. The employees were friendly and helpful, and so nice to offer samples when I had questions on the flavors (the samples were given with metal spoons… so nice not to use single use plastic for that). I ordered the large size cup and the portion was generous for the price. I had three different flavors in my cup and all of them had a nice amount of toppings mixed in… this is a nice way to have the gelato as many gelato shops only have the toppings laying on top so you don’t end up with many in your serving. I have visited Italy and have had many gelatos over the years, but this is hands down the best I have had! My favorite flavor was ‘A Big ‘Ole Peanut Butter Pint’... a week and a half later and I am still thinking about this flavor!! Also, we were with someone with a dog and there was no outdoor seating. We asked the employees if we could grab chairs from the restaurant and bring them outside and they had no problem letting us do that (it helped that we visited at a time where they weren’t too busy).“

“Quality is absolutely top notch, really fantastic flavors. What makes Sweetcream really special is the service, I'm left with the impression that everyone who works there really likes their job and it shows in the super friendly way they treat their guests. My favorite spot in the Saco/Biddeford area hands down“

“Note: asking for crunchies as a topping at other places means chocolate crunchies, but here the “crunchy coat” means their special mix of peanut, sprinkles, and a few other things! I was surprised when I got my order- but it was good!

Very generous portion sizes for the price, and their soft serve is just so, so good. I tried the toffee soft serve (a flavor of the day) and it was a little too sweet for my liking, but the vanilla and chocolate are amazing. Soft serve sometimes tastes very chemical, but this tastes like the real stuff!“

“Great ice cream, Great prices and great service 🤩“

“Best Gelato I’ve ever had! I’ve been to a few different places but none even compare. I had the Hazelnut and Sea Salt Caramel and they were mouth watering. My bf had Maine Wild Blueberry and Oreo and we almost went back for more that night! Eagerly waiting for Boston Creme to come back so I can try it!!“

“Lovely roadside ice cream spot close to downtown Saco, Camp Ellis, and Ocean Park. There’s always shade from the big pine trees along the road and it’s really peaceful. Fun flavors for kids and adults alike. I especially enjoyed the blueberry cheesecake!“

“Always a great time at Mattel’s mini golf! Clean and well kept courses, friendly staff and priced right for families!“

“A bit pricy but delicious. It’s my go to ice cream place. Everything’s pricy nowadays.“

“Super fast service great quality ice cream and affordable prices! ❤️💯☝🏾✔️🙌🏾“

“The best blizzards in southern Maine are at the Saco DQ, love that they use whole M&M’s in their blizzards instead of being all chopped up. Also they give plenty of treats in the blizzards and aren’t skimpy like other DQ’s I have been to.“

“The ice cream was delicious with many unique and tasty flavors!! The owner was very kind and friendly as well. I will definitely be back!!“

“I have a nut allergy and was unsure about the blizzard I was going to get, but one very sweet worker went a step further and looked up the ingredient (praline pieces) to make sure I wouldn’t have an allergic reaction. I really wish I had gotten her name (she had dark curly hair) but she deserves her flowers!“

“My son has been asking for sonic ice cream since summer began. Deering ice cream was the only person/place/truck who had sonic. (And we've been to a lot). He was helpful to keep me informed of his location, as I drove to find him.(he is a movie ice cream truck after all). I drove 30mins to another town to hunt down the ice cream man for my son and IT WAS WORTH IT. Super kind gentle man! Great variety of ice cream choices“

“Great ice cream. The best we’ve ever had.“

“On behalf of the Cape Elizabeth Little League, thank you for your kind donation of our new microwave! In addition your tasty treats, your commitment to your community and staff (even former ones!) is admirable. We'll be back!“

“Tried this place for the first time as I explored downtown Portland and wow is it yummy! I got the salted caramel and it was some of the best ice cream I’ve ever had. I know others complained about not being able to
sample but I personally like this policy. Cuts down on waste + keeps line moving quicker. Service was fast + friendly. I look forward to returning and trying other flavors.“

“Incredible customer service! I cannot say enough great things about Len Libby’s. I have been going there for years. Called today and they put together the most amazing baskets! Great quality they went above and beyond. Thank you Len Libby Candies!!“

“pop up with Meet on the Street last night. Prix Fixe four course menu 😋. Food was outstanding, service…outstanding. Drinks?? Always outstanding! The gondola in the bar is always a fun little spot to sit. Such a great space on Wharf St, especially when the snow is falling. Food is warm and lovely, and the staff is always happy to see you. 100/10.“

“Last year I stopped by this Cafe on the way back home, I tried a pistachio raised donut and it stole my heart. the vibes at this restaurant are so sweet and nothing but Mainer. Slow and sweet, colorful and flavorful. Everytime I'm in the area I'll be sure to re-visit! 10⭐️“

“Outstanding fare; courteous, professional staff; charming atmosphere; a must—highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“One of my favorite places to stop before work! Clean and cozy atmosphere, amazing food. Gotta check it out :)“

“Food good but way too slow, was freezing inside…. If prepared to sit you will enjoy…“
