50 Best Ice Cream Shops near New Brighton

“I placed an order through the app last week to get to the store and find it closed due to illness. It was a bit frustrating that evening. I did finally speak to the store manager who promptly gave a credit to my account. Thank you for making it right. Unexpected things happen, thank you for being pleasant and making the correction.“

“Came after receiving a giftcard for my birthday. Extremely limited room to dine in here, but there are a number of tables outside for when the weather is fair. My ice cream shake was tasty - I'd forgotten they use real strawberries - and the staff member was polite.“

“Freaking amazing classic hand scooped ice cream. Crazy flavors and highly recommend the "This $&@! Just Got Crazy"... yea, its that good.We also got to meet the owners too. This is truly the local small business experience you should be supporting. You just have to stop by and see for yourself.“

“Always a unique selection, friendly service and great tasting ice cream! I need to make up excuses to treat myself. :) The apple crisp and oatmeal raison cookie flavors are 👌“

“Unbelievable quality. If you aren’t keeping yourself stocked with their Chicken Brodo for sipping, what are you even doing with your life?! I don’t know where this place came from and I don’t understand how they do what they do, but every single thing is just too tier quality that I frankly haven’t experienced anywhere in Minnesota.“

“Very good Iced cream the best of Minnesota“

“Fantastic flavors, great service!“

“It's a good-old-fasioned DQ with outdoor seating only. They do a nice job of hiring and training their young staff to be friendly and attentive. I stop by at least a couple times a month during their long season (March-October at least) and always look forward to a good experience. Nice co-customers, too!

Parking: Parking is like, RIGHT there.

Kid-friendliness: If anybody spills, no problem -- it's all outside!“

“We just came through tonight and the guys were upbeat, friendly and soooooooo fast - with smiles for miles! Me and my wife were so impressed, and wanted to say thank you for helping create such a fun moment in this unprecedented time! God bless you and your staff! Again, thank you!“

“The ice cream is delicious but also wanted to shout-out the fantastic customer service. I'm sorry I didn't catch the names of the two young men working tonight, but they were great. The main person we interacted with had a baseball cap and a red shirt. My son wanted a GOCO taco which wasn't available tonight, but he made a recommendation to help him get something close to what he wanted. He was also very patient with my younger son who made a mess of the used spoon cup. I would have been irritated, but he handled it with a lot of patience and grace!

Thanks guys! We'll see you again soon.“

“Delicious and many flavors😋“

“Very welcoming workers, delicious foods, and good portions for the price! Brought my friends here after dinner for my birthday. The owner was sweet enough to pay for my dessert. We also tried the game that they have to get a free popsicle and one of friends won. They also gave us free samples afterward because they were doing content.“

“This icecream, everytime i go, I can taste the flavor itself, mixed with the sweetness or the ice cream itself. Unlike other ice cream shops, the same flavor never gets old, since everytime i take a bite, the flavor always feels brand new

Anyways my family and I love going to this icecream shop and it's amazing!“

“Dream burger double smash. Great tasting skirt. Great smash sear. The dream sauce was delicious. I could dip anything in that sauce. Pickles were great and not overpowering. The bun was buttery and held up nice. Dreams fried chicken sandwich with hot honey was off the charts. great flakey crust and buttermilk chicken was juicy! Devoured in seconds.  strawberry 🍓 shake and a chocolate malt hit the spot on this 90 degree + day.“

“Phish Food: This flavor was born in 1997 and is named after a Vermont improvisational rock group. A portion of the royalties from the flavor goes toward environmental efforts in Vermont’s Lake Champlain Watershed, which is great since our current government leadership doesn't seem to care about the environment. The pint’s description is chocolate ice cream with gooey marshmallow swirls, caramel swirls, and fudge fish. When I first began digging through my pint I did not see much of the marshmallow swirls. After mining my way through the frozen treat, I finally found a fair amount. The chocolate ice cream is rich and is complemented nicely by a school of fudgy fish that have a flavor edging closer to dark chocolate. Chocolate lovers should be happily satisfied with this one. It’s almost like a double chocolate fudge ice cream because there’s so much chocolate ice cream & fudge fish as compared to the marshmallow and caramel. Speaking of caramel, the caramel swirls do take the flavor up a notch, but they could be more abundant. Caramel is one of my favorite flavors and the combination with the chocolate and fudge reminds me of a frozen candy bar. The marshmallow swirl has a sweet/cream-like flavor. It is not simply marshmallow flavored ice cream, but texturally it is something resembling actual marshmallows, like fluff, and I love it! I wish there was more caramel & marshmallow, but overall I’m impressed. Doughboy approved 😋

“Omg I moved to Minneapolis over 2 years ago and thought there were no DQs for me...then while meandering in the Skyway I found this place!!!!!!! YAY!!!!!!
I immediately got a smoothie and their pretzels with cheese, perfect post school snack! The dude behind the counter was incredibly friendly and in my hangry state I almost chose an Orange Julius over a smoothie but he kindly explained the difference.
I will be coming here regularly because DQ is the greatest and also the workers are nice. Yay!!!!!“

“Being a work from home mom, I LOVE this place. Great coffee and awesome play area in back to keep the kids busy“

“The cookies are amazing and delicious! They are a little pricey, but totally worth it! We love to get different cookies and split them so we can all get a taste. The service is quick and easy, and the restaurant is clean. I highly recommend“

“El mejor heladoooo muy cremosito!! Pedí una sandía Loka y wow la mejor muy bien preparada. 💯 recomendado“

“Super recomendado excelente servicio y todo bien rico!!!“

“Service was great and the beef boat noodles is very savory. My new fav spot for boat noodles. Their cucumber salad was on point too! I finished the cucumber and took the sauce home because it was that delicious! What a hidden gem! Will be returning for sure and will be trying their other dishes. First time in a long time finding a restaurant where I was “Wow’d”. Must try!!“

“We had such an amazing time and the gal working was the absolute sweetest. Thank you so much!! Definitely worth the stop!“

“Absolutely delicious! You will not be disappointed with any of their unique desserts or refreshing drinks! 5 out of 5“

“I debated leaving this review, but I think others might feel the same. I’m giving 4 stars because I don’t want to tank the overall rating but honestly, that doesn't reflect my personal experience or that of my friends.

Charging $5 for a single cookie just feels... off. Even accounting for overhead, the actual cost to make one cookie is way* less than $5. That kind of markup feels excessive- especially right now, when so many of us are being nickel-and-dimed from every direction.

I was genuinely excited to have a cookie shop nearby to satisfy those “I just want one good chocolate chip cookie” cravings. But at $5 each, the cookie would need to be exceptional. Instead, it tasted more like something factory-made than homemade, and my friends and I even wondered if they’re baked in-house at all.
Disappointing, to say the least. A more reasonable price could turn this place into a local gem. Right now, it just feels like a missed opportunity.“

“Been going there for years. So good!“

“It’s 85 degrees out, the ice cream and vibes here are immaculate. Best ice cream I’ve ever had, the portions are insaaaane. One of the workers in the back is singing to the music they’re playing and everything is 10/10. It’s my first time here and I will always be a fan!“

“This place has really gone down hill use to love this place but this year and especially today shows me it’s time to find other whole sale vendors so I went to buy ice cream today and and was rushed to decide even though I was actually buying ice cream and not just wasting time I had a total of over 200 but wanted to spend 350 usually im in and out cause i know what sells and what doesn’t but lately it’s hard because every time i come to big bells they are always out of the ice cream I get so today like this whole year he was out of what I needed so I thought let me try new stuff but was unable to because I was being rushed by the manager of all people the worst part is his drivers always have everything he says he’s out of so that lets me know out means my drivers get that witch mess up money for those who don’t work for him just rude and Ridiculous hope they really get their stuff together (((( it’s a new year updated review)))) this place is back to being what we love great ice cream great price great service no rushing and I love the t shirts we get for free this will always be my ice cream guy“
