50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Utica

“Love Custard spot. Only downfall is cash only.“

“I love this place but make sure your employees are properly trained on how to make a blizzard. Went there last night and my 2 blizzards were not mixed properly. one with mint was mostly a vanilla ice cream with very little mint mixed in the second was a cookie jar and I didn't get to the fudge until I reached the bottle of the cup and the cookie dough and Oreos were only at the top. I will still be back and happy your remodel is now complete.“

“We love coming here!!!!!“

“Wonderful variety of tasty treats. Custard, frozen yogurt, and vegan ice cream are all phenomenal. Friendly staff and nice outdoor seating.“

“I couldn’t find on your website the ingredient factor of your ice cream. Is there a way of finding out what the ingredients are you can leave it on my cell phone message. It would be a good idea in case people have some allergy issues. Thank you so much for being here.“

“Went to the J&w ice cream and grill fries and drinks straight nostalgia. Got a mega meal with a double cheese burger, fries, a drink, and a sundae with one topping. When I say I felt like I was back in time at my childhood ice cream parlor 20/10 on atmosphere and the food is a 30/10 on quality to price everything was made fresh in front of you. That's not even to mention the patience and care the staff put into treating each customer individually and making sure you have a firm understanding of the menu before placing your order. I truly can't wait to return.“

“If you haven’t been to Modern Cone yet, it’s definitely worth a stop. They have a great selection of flavors and fun options, so there’s always something different to try. The shop is clean, well put together, and has a relaxed atmosphere that makes it an easy place to hang out.

The staff is friendly, quick, and helpful if you need suggestions. Overall it’s just a solid spot to grab dessert, whether you’re going with family or meeting up with friends. We’ll definitely be back.“

“Amazing service and really good grilled chicken! If you've never been here you order at the ice cream place and they announce your order number at the end counter when they are done with your food. Much better than much and dip next door smh!!!“

“The butter pecan ice cream is the absolute best ice cream I have ever eaten. I love BrainFreeze. So happy you have opened for business.“

“Perfect, peaceful cafe. Had both the espresso and cappuccino during different visits. They were brewed at the right temp, which allowed for immediate sipping without burning my mouth. The Gelato was great and and was very smooth. The spoons were cute too. Kids and I have returned 2xs after discovery of this place and enjoy the simple, elegant and peaceful vibes the environment provides to end a long day or week. Staff is also extremely friendly.“

“They have the best ice-cream around. One of my favorite places to go for a well deserved treat that won't break the bank!! wish they could stay open all year round“

“Over the years everything I have had has been delicious, but the famous Banana Splits are fantastic (with extra chocolate and whipping cream it is ​😊😊😊😊😊)!“

“The custard is the best. Delicious! Has alot more favorite than other soft-serve. I do wish the hew owner’s kept some of the old Flavors of the Week. The fruit flavors stand out better in the custard. Still really good.“

“Love this place delicious, quick and friendly atmosphere!!!“

“Been going here since I was a kid 💖“

“Ho visitato Freskia Ice Cream. Il personale è molto gentile e la qualità è ottima. Offre una vasta scelta, non è solo una gelateria. I from Italy and I visited Freskia Ice Cream. The staff was very friendly, and the quality was very high. There are many options, more than just an ice cream shop.“

“It's not just another dairy queen, Liz and her family have owned for over 40 years. You will never meet nicer people, have better service, or taste better ice-cream. Those who posted Wally's or cold cow are better than this place.... well, you simply lost your sense of taste from covid and never got it back! its either that or you just plane dumb my family and every family I know will never go anyplace else EVER thank you Liz for your service to the community“

“Dog friendly ❤️ cider and donuts are the best 😊“

“Wonderful service!! Super friendly staff and the ice cream is excellent!!!!!“

“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?🍪“

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

“Love this place! The owner is so nice!“

“Great options and great service. It was nice to try new things and see someone so passionate about their business. I hope everyone can pay them a visit and support local. We loved everything we tried.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We can’t say enough amazing things about Scoop and Twist! Not only do they serve the best ice cream around, but they also have the biggest hearts for our community. They generously donated ice cream for the Dakota Football team’s annual tailgate, keeping our boys cool on a 90-degree day. We are beyond thankful for their kindness and support—it means so much to all of us! 💙🏈🍦 On top of that, Scoop and Twist is the only place we trust for hard scooped ice cream. As a family with kids who have nut allergies, it’s priceless to know how careful they are. They keep nut and non-nut ice creams completely separate and never use the same scooper. They truly think of everything and everyone, and it shows how much they care. We love supporting this locally owned gem, and we’ll keep coming back again and again. Thank you, Scoop and Twist—you’re the BEST!!!“

“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! ☺️“

“The best Dairy Queen! Great service and the best ice cream ever!❤️“

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

“I love Crumbl. I have probably tried 100 flavors. I have a list on my phone so I know what I have had. I Mark all with yes, no or maybe. The majority are yes. The last one I had was the Dubai-style sandwich cookie. I INHALED it. Ate the whole thing on one sitting. That was a first for me. I LOVED it. Can't wait until it comes back.“

“Amazing experience at The Burger Truck Troy. The food was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. Huge shoutout to Murtada he really took care of me and made sure everything was on point. Great service and great vibes. I’ll definitely be back.“

“Most importantly, they go above and beyond for the community! Each time we visit it’s clean, fun and lots of choices for toppings! Thanks Orange Leaf Macomb :)“

“Absolutely adorable! Love this Michigan gem definitely one of my FAVORITES“

“Highly recommend this location! I get something from here 2-3 times a week and always change it up. I love everything i have gotten! I LOVE the bowls and smoothies. I love the fact that I can order ahead and have it ready when I get here… and I love their point system!“

“The Apple Bar was delicious! So far my favorite sandwiches are the Italian Lunch Wrap and Veggie Bun. The Chocolate Almond Croissant is wonderful as well. I'd like to try some of the other bagel sandwiches. Wish they were open later bc I get out of work after they close. My friend and I loved the ambience. We plan on coming back.“

“Amazing teas, amazing staff, overall fantastic. I recommend them to anyone I talk to.“

“Detroit Cookie Company responded right away to my inquiry about ordering a cookie cake for a friend even though it was after hours. The cashiers inside the St. Clair Shores location were also very nice and all the cookies looked so delicious I had to get a couple for myself. Very much appreciated and highly recommend!“

“Best stop for ice cream lovers!
💕🍨

Everything tastes fresh and smooth, the atmosphere is pleasant and inviting 🌈, and the staff is kind and professional 👍

Carvel Express never disappoints!“

“I usually get a medium chocolate ice cream on a cone and that is plenty. Their team works fast and gets through lines so you're not waiting long. If there is no line, your order may be done before you've paid. I'm never satisfied with the sweet treats here.“

“Love the decor, the food, everything is nicer there.“

“Called ahead for an oreo milkshake as I was in a rush. The gentleman had the shake ready when I walked in and was kind enough to treat my kids to small cups of ice cream on the house. The oreo shake was great and the customer service was even better!“

“Best frozen yogurt I’ve ever had!!!🥰❤️🥰“

“Menchie's Frozen yogurt is a great treat. I like that it has no preservatives and no additives. It has a great variety of flavors. I'm so glad I found a good frozen yogurt place. I also love the friendly staff.“
