Had a friend stop in tonight for a milkshake...1 hour before closing. They REFUSED to make it for said friend and told this person that what milk they had left was to be saved & used for Door Dash orders ONLY! It was this person's birthday and all they had wanted all day was 1 milkshake from Big Dipper and they refused to make it. Pretty ridiculous. Guess if ya really want a milkshake from Big Dipper ya better just stay home and order it from Door Dash. Apparently you get better service sitting at home instead of getting out to enjoy the evening in the fresh air and atmosphere of the walking mall. Will also cost ya double to get it dashed but who cares about money these days...or getting off their butt's and making a trip to the establishment themselves. 🤷♀️🤦♀️

By far the best ice cream in Helena!

Grabbed a pint to take back to our motel while visiting as we always make sure to check out the local ice cream scene. Super delicious and creamy. Many flavors to choose from, but took off a star for lack of chocolate-based options as they only had plain chocolate and I’m a chocolatey girl. We got the salted caramel which was fantastic . Pre-packed pints were $5.50 making it a good value compared to a cone. Fresh-packed pints were a few bucks more. Definitely recommend!

Best Big Dipper location!! Pros: thru authentic creative ice cream flavors, space to sit inside right on the Gulch walking mall. Couldn’t be cuter Cons: Always premium product at a premium price
Parking: There is a parking garage just a block away—you need to bring quarters or a dollar bill though! but sometimes you’re lucky and find a free spot around this block.

Great ice cream but the cones dripped sometimes so I hope they fix this.
Amazing ice cream, friendly service. Non-service dogs aren't allowed inside, but they do give cute little pup cones with orders if you ask.

Fantastic ice cream, generous portions and friendly service. I initially ordered just the pistachio, which was great, but after trying the seasonal special had to order a double scoop.

Flavorful and sturdy. ✨ I went here with my aunt and her two girls (3 and 5). They let my try multiple different flavors, and I ended up getting a half scoop of each in a single cup which ended up just being a scoop of each. I got Mango Sorbet (which is a special right now) and Coconut and it's really good ?. My cousins' got a kids cone of chocolote and one of cotton candy with rainbow sprinkles?. At first I was scared they would fall off the cones but they are very balanced. I would definitely come here again and they had seating upstairs.
Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly. Both of my cousin's enjoyed their ice cream.
