16 Best Ice Cream Shops near Carrboro

“I have not had a snow cone in years so Pelicans surprised me! My memory of them were semi-dense small ice chunks, syrups with the artificial aftertaste, and either pure syrup or pure ice at the bottom. Pelicans was none of that! The ice was really surprisingly fluffy and they have tons of great flavor options. I ordered tigers blood (mostly coconutty) and mango and it was perfect for summer.“

“We love Napoli - the food, staff, atmosphere, but the noise level is nearly intolerable. I know, I know, I know you have installed some noise-dampening panels and there's little you can do about this other than installing shag carpet... I do wish, however, that the patrons would take it upon themselves to talk a bit more quietly.“

“My husband and I absolutely love Aidan's Pizza! We love that it is a small family business with great prices, excellent customer service, and high quality food. We have ordered many times and are always thoroughly satisfied with our meal. The Cheese Steak is delicious: perfectly cooked meat, toasty bread, cheesy, and well seasoned! We have tried the cheese sticks (the small is very generous!), the Kickin Tarheel Pizza, the Sweet Carolina Pizza, the Greek Goddess pizza (pictured), and the Caprese pizza. The pizzas are always fresh with generous toppings and delicious crust. Give Aidan's a try - you're missing out otherwise!“

“We walked in to Ben & Jerry’s UNC with 14 worn out volleyball players and 3 tired coaches. John and Haddie (I hope I got the names right!) showed no fear and gave us the much-needed scoops with smiles! Thanks for reviving our troops with sweet treats and sweet greetings! #gcavolleyball #uncchapelhillvolleyballcamp“

“Amazing Persian ice cream flavors run by a wonderful person. We bought saffron pistachio, lavender, rose and faloodeh to take to a friends house for dinner. We also tried the Turkish coffee flavor at the store. Some of the best ice cream flavors i have had in a long time.“

“Yum! We've tried several of the non-dairy GF flavors and none have disappointed. Currently, I'm trying not to polish off a pint of non-dairy Golden Milk by myself in one sitting.“

“Excellent Cuszomer Service“

Also thank you to the workers here for being super accommodating to my peanut allergy. They offered to open new containers for me which means a lot ❤❤❤ Love Jenis.“

“Bella and Maddie are probably the best employees at crumbl. I’ve been in there a few times but it always seems to be the best when Bella and Maddie are on the shift, they greet all costumers and explain the flavors of the week perfectly! They definitely make the experience worth the trip!“

“Best bubble tea place in town :) Milk tea, thai tea and mango-peach smoothie is my favourite! Love it“

“love the mangonadas :).. I recommend this place:)“

“A nice variety to choose from“

“Amazing frozen yogurt and amazing people that work there!“

“The best thing here is the gelato. It’s super high end. Smoothies >$7 latte >$7. Served in to go cups. Not a ton of natural lighting, but some seating decent for working. The gelato is really nice actually, esp spicy mango.

Some outdoor seating.

I have had their smoothies and one of their lattes, Rocky Mountain latte. I asked for less sweet and it was still too sweet to finish.“
