12 Best Ice Cream Shops near Cherokee

“Sugar bears has the best ice cream and espresso. The owners are so kind and wonderful people! A must stop during your visit in Cherokee.“

“They sell Blue Bell Ice Cream. I had a young child with me today and ordered an ice cream cone. He chose the flavor called Krazy Colors. It’s brightly colored, but evidently tastes like vanilla ice cream. They have a nice covered porch with tables and chairs outside. The fella who waited on us was friendly.“

“We walked in thinking that there would be actual coney options, but the choices were slim. You can get a coney, but it's a hot dog, chili and nacho cheese. This is more of an ice cream store than an actual food place. They had lots of choices for candy and ice cream!“

“Wonderful atmosphere. The owner is a great guy! So many flavors and combinations! Super awesome ice cream place if you're in the area. Also makes for a good recharge after going White Water Rafting across the street from Rolling Thunder or after a good motorcycle ride. 10/10 recommend.“
