11 Best Ice Cream Shops in Mount Airy

“If I’m being honest this ice cream was the best I’ve had in my entire life. Such a good vibe outside with the seating too. I highly recommend the Graham Slam flavor. I’m not a huge dessert person but this ice cream just set the bar so high“

“Absolutely amazing!!! I'm addicted 😁 There's not one thing I've had that I didn't Absolutely love.“

“My son and I stopped in Mt. Airy to experience the Mayberry theme and i was soooo surprised to find a gluten free bakery! I went in hoping for the best but expecting the worst, those of us that are GF know not all are created equal. I WAS STUNNED!!!!!! Amazing!!! I got a blueberry muffin and a peach turnover....HEAVEN!!! Thank you so much for making everything with love, it shows in your food. We have now decided that everytime we visit family in NC that the new route we take is due to having to stop at the Hillbilly Bake Shop!“

“The Chill Shack is officially a new favorite! We tried the ice cream cookie sandwich, a scoop of ice cream, and the blue raspberry shaved ice — and everything was SO good.
The ice cream cookie sandwich was the star of the show — soft, fresh cookies with creamy ice cream that hit the perfect balance of chewy + smooth. The regular ice cream was rich and flavorful, and the blue raspberry shaved ice was super refreshing with just the right amount of sweetness.
Perfect treat spot if you're craving something cold, fun, and delicious. Definitely worth the stop! 🍪🍦❄️“

“Selection of food is mostly sandwiches. They did have chicken strip plate and hamburger stk plate. they were priced higher than most of the other restaurants in the area. The cheeseburgers were good could have been a little warmer. A kids meal and 2 burger meals was $25. Did not buy any ice cream but it looked good.“

“Sweet Frog in Mount Airy is a great little spot for a frozen treat. Their frozen yogurt is delicious — smooth, creamy, and full of flavor. What really stands out is the massive selection of toppings. From fresh fruit and candies to cookies, syrups, and more, there’s pretty much something for everyone to pile on.

That said, just be aware that they charge by the weight, so things can get expensive really fast — especially if you get a little carried away at the toppings bar (which is easy to do!). It’s definitely a treat-yourself kind of place, and while the price adds up, the quality makes it worth it.

Pro tip: swing by the ATM or make sure you’ve got your credit card handy, because your sweet tooth might cost a little more than you expect. Still, all in all, it’s a solid spot for a fun and tasty dessert experience.“

“Needed a quick something to eat. My husband likes barbecue, I like anything else. He ended up getting french toast and bacon, and it was a big (for him) portion. I had a cheeseburger and baked beans. The cheeseburger was excellent, the best I've had at a fast food or sit down restaurant. At first, the baked beans were weird-tasting, but after the second spoonful, I was hooked.
Vincent, the young man at the register was very pleasant. He is an asset to Aunt Bea's.
We're here for the week, and I'm hoping to be back!“
