About Tony's Ice Cream

Tony's Ice Cream is a classic ice cream shop in Gastonia, beloved by locals for decades. The place offers a variety of delectable treats, including banana splits, hot dogs, and cherry lemon sundrop. The service is friendly and the prices are fair, and the atmosphere provides a nostalgic, old-fashioned feel with a nostalgic charm you don’t find at big chains. Customers especially enjoy the milkshakes, with grape milkshake being highly recommended and often mentioned as a favorite. Many visitors fondly remember going there with family, and some even continue making it a tradition during their travels. The shop has a wide selection of flavors, including cherry cheesecake and almond joy, which are popular choices for milkshakes. The staff are friendly and eager to answer questions, and customers can purchase a half-gallon or pint of any flavor to take home, including grape ice cream and chocolate. The one size milkshake is large enough for up to three people to share. Great breakfast sandwiches as well, such as a livermush/egg/cheese on a bun. While some feel the flavors could be a bit stronger, the overall experience at Tony's is highly recommended for those seeking a taste of local, homemade goodness.

My first time at Tonys, I stopped by for breakfast sandwiches and they were very good! I couldn't resist not picking up a pint of grape ice cream and also chocolate too. Really really good ice cream! Am looking forward to going back and trying a hotdog and definately a milkshake!
Yummy I love it.big scoops
Tony’s Ice Cream is a true Gastonia classic. The ice cream is rich and delicious, the milkshakes are generous, and the food has that familiar old-fashioned quality that keeps people coming back. The service is friendly, the prices are fair, and the whole place has a nostalgic charm you don’t find at big chains. Always worth a visit—five stars!
