31 Best Ice Cream Shops in Raleigh

“Great selections and wonderful flavors.“

“In the Battery Atlanta and stopped in and we loved it! Awesome flavors and great service! We did a reel for it in our page!!“

“Overall the experience was good , the workers were really nice and complimented my jewelry <3 , they were quick to bring me what i ordered. The boba in my opinion gets too much backlash , i myself wouldnt come here every week for boba but it isnt a bad place for boba , the tapioca was a bit too sweet for my liking and gave me a weird taste but i believe its because i hadnt mixed it up right and after my boba tasted fine , it wasnt too sweet and you could always adjust it , I do believe the dubai chocolate cups are a bit overrated here if you arent exactly fanatic about strawberries , if i could i probably would recommend getting the chocolate bar instead since the strawberry taste overpowered most of anything , and it just tasted like basic chocolate and strawberries , it does come in a decent size and i got full after a few bites , not my thing but i believe others would like it.“

“Howling Cow is the perfect mix of education and enjoyment. The ice cream is rich, creamy, and made with milk from cows right on the farm. The Dairy Education Center gives visitors a unique look into how dairy products are made, and the Randleigh Dairy Museum offers interactive exhibits for all ages. The porch with rocking chairs and views of the pastures make it a relaxing stop. It can get busy on weekends, but it’s absolutely worth the visit.“

“The staff is super kind and helpful. I got the coconut gelato, tried the dulce de Leche and my friend got the vegan gelato and WOW WOW WOW. all of it, incredibly decadent and lovely! Great depth of flavor. Lacks nothing at all. Clean place! GO GO GO. there isn't another good gelato place for hours!“

“It's quite bad that this is so easily accessible to me.

I think my favorites thus far have been:
- Dulce de Leche filled with Dulce de Leche with S'Mores
- Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies and Cream dipped in Crunchy Hazelnut and topped with Pistachios
- Mint Chocolate Chip with Nutella and as a Sandwich
But I'm sure there's more excellent combinations..
I want one now..“

“Kilwins is an institution that knows how to make the best tasting chocolate, fudge, and ice cream! That said, we don't come here often because, well, we would have to skip all three meals that day, lol! Seriously, the staff is always friendly, and the treats are always tasty and interesting. Keep making people happy!“

“Oh man, this is 💯 the greatest ice cream in Raleigh. The butter pecan is the best I’ve ever had. The kids love the cookies and cream. We like to try the seasonal flavors too. There’s a nice outdoor area with some games and tables (no indoor seating). Customer service is outstanding!“

“Amazing ice cream, cakes and service. I know things are expensive, but $18 for 6 ice cream sandwiches? $12 per pint? It is some of the best ice cream you've ever eaten though.“

“the peanut butter oreo flavor was just right. not too overwhelming“

“Great selections and wonderful flavors.“

“La mejor variedad de paletas y Helados 🥳“

“I absolutely love Crumbl! Every visit feels like a sweet little treat for myself and my family. The cookies are always fresh, warm, and packed with flavor. I enjoy how the menu changes weekly – it’s exciting to see what new flavors are available, and there’s always something for everyone to enjoy.

The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the store itself is clean and inviting. I really appreciate how carefully they package the cookies too – they always look picture-perfect.“

“Ordered a drink that came out wrong, explained it so I could order something different as it wasn't tasting right at all. Still get charged for the old drink, infact my drink points I redeemed didn't even get accounted for. Terrible service. They won't remake your drink either, even if it's clearly wrong. don't recommend cary location its only gotten worse.“

“Butter pecan ice cream 🍦🍦🍦“

“We reached out to NC Ice Cream about coming for a kids birthday party at my house. Even with it being over an hour and a half drive, she gave us a more than fair price and made my 3 year olds birthday a day to remember. She was very polite and accommodating. Maybe with one of the next birthday parties, I’ll be able to get her to come back. All-in-all, I would recommend to anyone. There was a great selection of ice cream available and everyone had a great time.“

“I recommend the ice cream but it is a shame for only two people working keeping up with about 40 orders on a weekend. Hire more people and don’t put your staff in stressful situations with no help!“

“Awesome 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍“

“Great and quick customer service“

“First time there and won’t be our last. Enjoyed tasting the flavors of all your ice cream. Loved the mango nada. Will be back soon !!!“

“Stopped by and had a lovely experience with Jean at this location. You might be able to get ice cream or even Dippin Dots at other places but having someone who serves you with a smile and a lovely personality makes a huge difference. Next time you are in this center do yourself a favor and stop by here to grab a treat!“

“the best ice cream out there. and now they mobile, check there pages out to see where they gonna be“

“I order cookies from here very often through the Crumbl app and have never had problems with delivery. Last night I ordered and sadly DoorDash messed up big time. Person “couldn’t find” my apartment which has never happened and decided to drop off the box at the front office which was closed. I get there and they were stolen. I called the store asking what could we do and Caroline picked up and PERSONALLY delivered a new box of cookies to me herself. I don’t write google reviews often but Caroline was so accommodating that I feel I had to do this. As a person that works in a customer facing industry, Caroline has gone above and beyond! I know it may seem like a box of cookies but they are my finances favorite and I’m surprising her at the airport with this box that Caroline delivered as I type this.“

“Tucked into the corner, one could aLmOsT miss it!- but, hey!- I wouldn't because it's Goodberry's!
Had the flavor of the day (butter pecan) in a chocolate coated waffle cone. Both would be delicious on there own, but a bit overpowering together. Love those concretes too-- need to bring back Manager's Special Flavor of the Day concretes & sundaes!“

“I love this Goodberry's! Customer service is always great, but the last time I was there, Tommy helped me with my order and he was super helpful with all my questions and requests. My custard was made just like I asked and it was delicious. Thanks for the wonderful service!“

“Rob, from the haagen das at the crabtree valley mall in raleigh, north carolina, had the best attitude in a worker I have seen in a while! He was very energetic, funny, polite, professional, and informational. He DESERVES a promotion or a raise - or both! It was my first time at one of these places and my experience was perfect and amazing because of Rob! Thank you brother! Many blessings to you! 100 star rating if I could post it!“

“I bought the Key Lime pie for my hubby's birthday and it was fantastic! Rich, creamy, with a perfect key lime flavor. Crust was light and just enough crunch. Definitely will order from Burney's again!“

“I have eaten frozen custard literally all across the United States and Goodberry's is by far the best. Plain chocolate is my favorite. It is smooth, creamy, and the last bite tastes just as good as the first. My wife is partial to sweet cream and feels like she has won the lottery if we go and that's the flavor of the day. I will go out of my way just to get a small cup of chocolate, and when I am not in the area, I dream about it. Yes, it's that good!“

“nia was lovely ! she was great help :)“
