14 Best Ice Cream Shops near Kitty Hawk

“I really enjoyed the visit here. This is The Spot for healthy alternatives and some ice cream too. The staff was helpful and friendly. The young lady who took my order was super friendly and the young man who made my treat was respectful and attentive - no blank stare and no silent handoff where the person puts your stuff in the counter like they are mute.

Overall a nice place. A few little beechy things here too.“

“The best new place on the beach!“

“Stopped for the ice cream fell in love with the cookies. The ice cream is from a NC creamery and I recommend the Lemon Crunch 🍋 But the cookies are a blessing for your taste buds. I got the coconut cookie and my husband raved about the white chocolate macadamia. I wish we had tried this sooner... but it's 10 miles down the beach 😆“

“Awesome place - stopped in on vacation and got some ice cream sandwiches and some clothes. Owner was super nice. This is definitely on the list to hit every week in OBX.“

“Just enjoyed our first visit to Noosa Scoops OBX. The blackberry cobbler ice cream is amazing!! Can’t wait to come back!“

“Been here a couple of times, once during the summer and the other time during the off-season. Both times the place was clean, the staff were friendly and attentive, and the portions were better than anticipated. It's my new favorite ice cream shop on the OBX!“

“Had great service. The ice cream is very good. Highly recommend you try their ice cream.“

“Great ice cream! I got banana pudding. But for 4 ice creams, spent $36... 3 cones that were double scoops, and 1 bowl that was a double. The cones luckily were HUGE, and closer to 3 scoops. Guess they filled the cone, and THEN added the 2 scoops. So almost a triple. Overall, worth it at the end of it for the price. However other places around I could easily spend $20-25 on Ice creams similar at smaller mom & pops, however the quality of the ice cream was better than the place called The Spot around OBX.“

“Amazing ice cream & candy, every kind of homemade chocolate-covered whatever & fudge you can imagine, a completely empty shop at 8pm, and great customer service and recommendations. Came for the coconut caramel chocolate s'mores, stayed for the ice cream; came back for the homemade peanut butter cups.“

“I've been coming down to the Outer Banks every November for the past 32 years. Somehow I had never ran across this gem. The coffee and ice cream are perfect. We really enjoyed the malt. I also thoroughly enjoyed their specialty menu for The Fall season! We went several days and enjoyed the view, everyone that we met who worked there was great! We loved the swanky seating, the eccentric seating, and the overall beauty of this place! HIGHLY recommend checking it out!!!“

“I recently had to go gluten-free and have been missing good sweets, especially on vacation. And WOW these donuts outdid themselves, so amazing! Plus the staff in the shop are wonderful and super helpful when ordering! 10/10 would HIGHLY recommend.“

“Do yourself a favor and order the Frozen Espresso Cappuccino with Hazelnut flavoring. Our group visited Big Bucks everyday of vacation and have zero regrets 😍 so delicious!“

“We went to this location today and the customer service was WONDERFUL. She was so helpful and made us feel so welcome. My husband and I are on our honeymoon and this weekend was our first time going to any crumbl. Best experience ever. Will return!“

“I’ve been coming to this Dairy Queen for years, and it’s always been a reliable stop for a sweet treat or a quick bite. The service is consistently friendly, and even when they’re busy, the staff keeps things moving. The Blizzards are always mixed just right (you’d be surprised how rare that is!), and the food is always hot and fresh.

It’s nice to see a place that hasn’t lost its touch over the years. Whether it’s summer and we’re grabbing cones after a long day or just a quick snack run, this DQ has never let us down. It’s a little nostalgic, a little comforting — and always delicious.“
