50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Bloomfield Hills

“I don’t usually leave long reviews, but Crumbl honestly deserves one. I stopped in pretty randomly, just planning to grab a couple cookies… and ended up walking out with a whole box because everything looked way too good to pass up.

First impressions: the store was spotless. You can actually see the team mixing dough, scooping, and baking everything right there. It feels more like a bakery than a chain. The staff greeted me right away, didn’t rush me, and even gave me honest opinions on which cookies were actually their favorites instead of just upselling. That alone made the experience feel more genuine.

Now the cookies—unreal. I don’t know what kind of magic they use, but these things are huge, warm, and soft in the middle without being raw. I tried the classic chocolate chip first just to get a baseline, and it might honestly be the best chocolate chip cookie I’ve had from any bakery. Perfect balance of crispy edges and a gooey center.

Then I tried the weekly specials, and that’s where they really hooked me. Every flavor actually tastes like what it’s supposed to taste like. The textures, the toppings, the fillings—nothing feels lazy or thrown together. You can tell they put real effort into each recipe, and the presentation is ridiculous. These things look like they belong on a commercial.

Price-wise, yeah, they’re a little more expensive than regular cookies, but these aren’t regular cookies. One is basically a dessert all by itself, and the quality backs it up. I don’t mind paying for something that actually tastes like premium ingredients were used.

Overall, Crumbl surprised me. I thought it was just hype, but I get it now. Great service, great atmosphere, and honestly some of the best cookies I’ve ever had. I’ll definitely be back—probably more often than I should.“

“Great ice cream and great service!!!“

“Cold Stone Creamery in Bloomfield, Michigan absolutely deserves five stars! Even with only one employee working behind the counter, she delivered exceptional customer service — friendly, fast, and impressively efficient from scooping to checkout. It’s rare to see someone manage a steady flow of customers with such professionalism and positivity, and she did it flawlessly.

I ordered the Birthday Cake Remix in a Like It (small) size, and the portion was incredibly generous — more than enough to satisfy any ice cream craving. The ice cream itself was rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced, exactly what you expect from Cold Stone. It was quickly prepared and mixed to perfection.

One of my favorite parts of visiting this location is watching the ice cream creation process on the cold stone. The mix-in experience is always fun, unique, and part of what makes Cold Stone Creamery stand out among ice cream shops in the area.

If you’re searching for top-notch ice cream in Bloomfield, MI, with great service and delicious custom creations, this Cold Stone Creamery location is a must-visit. Highly recommended for families, date nights, or anyone craving a high-quality sweet treat!“

“We love Gilly’s!!! Gilly’s is a local gem! Their ice cream is top-notch — don’t miss the ice cream nachos — and they’re a business that genuinely gives back to the community. There’s no sweeter way to shop local! 🍦“

“Took my daughter and her friends for a sweet treat here on her birthday and we LOVED everything about it. The dipped ice cream bars were ahhhmazing. We tried 3 different flavors and all were a hit. I personally had the sweet and salty and I still can’t stop thinking about it a day later. Staff were so kind, patient, and friendly. And the place is picture perfect to document your experience. Can’t wait to visit again with my husband and sons who didn’t join us.“

“We love iFreeze! We took our daughter who has Celiac Disease. They have items marked as gluten free on the menu. She had the S’mores ice cream and loved it. They were very knowledgeable about Celiac and cleaned the machines before use. They keep all GF items separated as well. It’s so important to us to have safe places for our daughter to eat and have dessert. Would recommend iFreeze to anyone!“

“I was blessed by Karen, the owner. I didn't look at the hours. I was just told that I could get superman ice cream there on a cone. When I arrived they were closed. I tapped on the window and explained that I was on my way back to NC and would pay double for my ice cream. Even though they hadn't opened yet, she serviced me and wouldn't allow me to pay her. I tried showing my ID she still would not take my payment. I say God bless you, Karen for making this big kid happy! 🥰🥰“

“this place is AMAZING! me and my boyfriend come as much as we can.
the icecream is rich, creamy and full flavored.
they're family owned, they're open when the branded competitor isn't. 😏
acknowledge us promptly, and are super attentive, and by the time we order, it's up in the window.
i love the QT. my guy enjoys a oreo milkshake.
it's worth a drive from Pontiac To BHam EVERY. TIME.
thank you to all of the employees of this establishment for keeping things real, consistent and genuine. great treats, even better service.“

“This is a terrific little ice cream stand on the fringe of downtown Auburn Hills. They have a vast array of flavors, more so than most IC spots that are primarily soft serve places. We tried the Banana and we added chocolate chips for good measure. It was great. Of course, their classic varieties are also good. Our grandsons tried the chocolate and vanilla (with sprinkles, naturally), respectively, and were quite happy with their choices.

The service was friendly and efficient and their prices were very fair. They have some picnic tables on the grounds where you can sit and enjoy your treats. It was an enjoyable experience and we'll look forward to our next chance to pay a visit.“

“Took a whole group of students there today. One girl alone, but cheerful and helpful and served everyone with a smile. Clean, old-style ice cream parlor. Would definitely recommend!“

“Love the creativity and especially the variety in nondairy ice creams. All the delight without any of the devastation of consuming normal ice creams 😉“

“When is you car show starting“

“definitely would recommend to go there“

“I have lived over in Farmington Hills for almost a year. I love stopping by to get my Vernors cooler. The staff are always very polite and kind and they have fast service there too. One day I was purchasing something and the young lady gave me a gift card for their store just because, I thought that was such a beautiful gesture for the establishment to do that randomly. I really appreciate them and the delicious ice-cream they serve. Thank you again sincerely Ms Mignon Jackson.“

“Been going here since I was a kid 💖“

“This place was AMAZING! I was on a bus trip with my son n 48 other people. They took great care of us along with other customers that came in. They took our orders n got them right out. AWESOME team work!! Staff was AWESOME!! They had a system that worked amazingly! Kudos to the staff!!“

“We love Custard Corner! 🍦🍨“

“I brought my bike club-Family And Friends Bike Squad B/C there yesterday (Monday). We all enjoyed the different flavors and options. It was so good and the staff was wonderful. We'll be back.“

“We stumbled upon this super fun Birmingham spot looking for some quick dessert and lucked out. They were fairly busy with only a short line, but the staff were knowledgeable on their flavors and gave great recommendations with generous servings. The pistachio gelato was incredible and tasted just like a little slice of Italy. The cappuccino was the cherry on top! Definitely give this spot a try.“

“The Italian Beef Dip is fantastic, brings back memories of my Italian grandmother and her sisters. Great ice cream/soft serve selection and I am a big fan of the seasonal poutine. So many delicious options! It is on my ‘Must Try’ list for new real estate clients buying/ moving to the area. 5⭐️’s“

“Amazing ice cream!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Love Dairy-O! The best summer treats in Clawson“

“Ritter’s is the stuff that will haunt your thoughts… I have been obsessed with their strawberry shortcake sundae since my first one last year. My husband loves their banana splits. We keep saying we want to try more things on the menu, but when it comes down to it, we love our favorites. I also must say this location has THE most polite and friendly staff. I was very impressed when I stopped in 3/10 for a quick snack.“

“We have come here a handful of times and it is such a treat to see happy staff, who keep the lines moving, and even didn’t seem to mind my overly excited, borderline hyperactive kids! The cookies, of course never disappoint! And I have discovered CURBSIDE! They never take too long. Maybe 5% slower on weekends. But what do you expect with a product like cookies?🍪“

“Love 44 scoops! Cute vibes with the insta wall covered in pink and sprinkles. Friendly staff, generous scoops, large variety. Vegan and nut free options too.“

“Had the best time with Gray’s Suga Shack at Gretchko’s Color Run! A huge hit! Prompt on arrival, didn’t run out, very nice!!“

“The service was quick and easy and the staff were friendly. There isn’t much seating, but it’s appropriate for how little space there is. It’s hard to mess up ice cream in my opinion so everything was good! My mom and sister also enjoyed their ice-cream! Highly recommend this spot!“

“best icecream in Pontiac!“

“Ordered a couple cat fish dinners tonight and it was definitely worth it. Cat fish is absolutely amazing, very fresh and doesn’t taste fishy (I always pay attention to if it’s fishy) and greens seasoned just perfectly. Will always come back and order.“

“Out of all the Dairy Queens in the area I drive out of my way to come to this location because the staff is great, I never have to wait long. Jojo and Rachel always have a smile on their faces as well as the other employees. It’s slightly embarrassing but they know my usual order and they always make it perfectly.“

“I’ll tell you one thing if you’re a DoorDash or and you’re picking up an order there it’s a fantastic place to do so. They do not mess around as soon as that time ticker hits in your app you walk inside that store you tell him the name and they will have your order ready.“

“They have the best ice cream flavors! I had it almost every single day since they opened until I gave birth to my daughter in June 2024!!! 😊😊😊 after l healed I was there again at least 2-3 times a week😁“

“Such a great hole in the wall ice cream shop, they have the best ice cream and at such good prices!!“

“I want to give a huge shout out to Here's the Scoop Ice Cream for showing up at a moments notice to Edison Elementary in Westland today for their field day when the Kona Ice truck we booked and paid for did not arrive. Here’s the Scoop came within 2 hours of my inital panicked phone call with enough ice cream for all 450+ kids. If you are in need of an ice cream truck in the future, please consider them. They really pulled through today for all our kids and we couldn’t be more grateful. 💙🍦“

“My wife and I have come here 5 times in the last 2 months and we absolutely love the food and hospitality we get here. They go out of their way make your experience here warm and welcoming. The prices are very fair for the high quality food we are served here. Highly recommend bringing your loved ones here 10/10“

“Welcoming and friendly staff! It’s a cute little spot for frozen yogurt. They’ve got the classic flavors like cookies & cream, chocolate, vanilla, cake batter, and strawberry, plus a few fun extras. There’s a good variety of toppings, and they all tasted fresh.

You don’t get to add your own toppings, which is a bit of a bummer since that’s part of the fun of self-serve froyo—but the girl who helped us was super nice.

It came out to $17 for two cups, which is about what I’d expect. Just a heads up: there’s a $5 minimum if you’re using a card.

I’ll definitely be back! ☺️“

“Cookie dough ice cream is amazing but the strawberry is my favorite. Looking forward to another visit!“

“delicious sugar free pumpkin latte, they made the recommendation and I loved it. Very friendly people. Only my 3rd time there bc its out of my way, but was at the Hawk across the street and whipped in there on the way home for a cold treat on a nice sunny fall day.“

“My granddaughter and I went to DQ yesterday for my birthday. We like this particular DQ. Workers are friendly. She got a triple chocolate brownie and I got my usual Peanut Buster Parfait. We sat outside at a picnic table and enjoyed the weather and our ice-cream. Fun times.“

“Awesome, Friendly service.
Great options to make your dream froyo dessert!

They have just about any of your favorite toppings from fruit to candy to graham cracker crumbles, to cheesecake pieces.

They also have different flavors of Frozen Yogurt like Cake Batter and Cookies and Cream. You can choose a single flavor or swirl them and add whatever you want!

You can put it in a cup or waffle bowl or waffle bowl dipped in chocolate or waffle cone or or or lol

So many options, make whatever you want, pay by weight. 💪😌

Take the family on laundry day (there is a chill laundry place right next door)“

“Monarch Market Cafe has become a staple of Huntington Woods, MI. As a resident of the neighborhood, promoter of small businesses and an avid coffee lover, this is my go to spot for a delicious latte or a quick bite to eat. The atmosphere is cozy, the staff are super friendly and their diverse menu has something delicious for everyone. I wholeheartedly recommend stopping in to experience this amazing, local cafe.“

“Highly recommended 👌 fresh products, great location, there is plenty of parking lot. Comfy and cozy to get a healty menu. Quick service, friendly staff, and online orders. There is a table as of kids' corner with books a s tablets for coloring. This is one of my new favorite places.“

“First time trying Cold Stone and I love it! We tried Founder's Favorite and Chocolate Devotion. I really like Founder's Fav. The cream has good texture. Staffs are friendly and there's one guy look a lot like Jim from The Office 🤣 Will go back and try other flavors!“

“fast, friendly service. they keep it clean.“

“ICE CREAM ONLY. A severe disappointment given I was expecting a place where I could get a burger and fries to go with my milkshake. Also, outdoor seating only, the building doesn't have indoor seating, and I have gotten my order wrong before-- check before you leave. On the flip side, the ice cream here is delicious and the customer service is great!“
