27 Best Ice Cream Shops near Waxhaw

“First timer and this place did not disappoint!!! My mom and I went yesterday in the rain and it was well worth it!!! The line was long when we got there so we knew this was the place to be. Old fashion ice cream with the traditional southern flavors I grew up on. My mom got the black cherry on a waffle cone and I got the classic southern staple butter pecan on a waffle cone and it was heavenly!!! Customer service was ok at the most not much interaction with the customers. Parking wasn’t an issue tons of free parking options, prices were unbelievably low, the atmosphere was super cozy and clean, the staff was ok, the location is downtown with gorgeous nostalgic scenery, most importantly the ice cream was delicious!!!! Creamy, flavorful, silky smooth, homemade ice cream with best waffle cone Ive had in a long time. 1000/10 highly recommend!!“

“Wow! I've driven pass Andy's so many times and never stopped. I finally did and what an delicious experience it was. I had the Turtle Split it was the best banana split I've ever had. It was loaded with toasted pecans that really took the split over the top. I can't wait to go back and try something different. Andy's is a definite stop on my list now!!!“

“It's always very clean and the staff is nice no matter who is there!“

“Good ice cream and excellent atmosphere for the kids to hang out. They support the schools too, I love it“

“Local Scoop is a hidden gem! If you’re looking for homemade, rich, creamy ice cream, this is the place. It’s locally owned, and you can absolutely taste the quality in every scoop. It’s not the cheapest ice cream around, but you get what you pay for—premium ingredients and incredible flavor.

The must-try flavor is the Salted Peanut Butter & Oreo. It’s one-of-a-kind and hands down one of the best ice cream flavors I’ve ever had. Perfectly creamy, packed with flavor, and loaded with delicious mix-ins.

In a world full of chain ice cream shops, Local Scoop stands out by doing things the right way. Great product, local ownership, and ice cream that’s worth every penny. Highly recommend!!!“

“The BEST pizza in Charlotte! Perfect balance of crust, cheese, sauce, and oh that flavour. Diavola is our favourite along with Italian chopped salad! I told my husband the only pizza I’ll ever eat is Inizio or Italy:) we ❤ Inizio!“

“Great place for gelato! The service was friendly and welcoming, and the gelato was absolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful, with plenty of great options to choose from. Definitely a spot I’d come back to again. Highly recommend!“

“AMAZING! Got my mom the Mother's Day Bundl, gave it to her early, and she loved it! She let me try a bite of each cookie, they were great! Pink Velvet Heart Cake was exceptionally great! Thanks, Crumbl for making this Mother's day special.“

“I ate there today because the ones in SC closed, but it wasn’t a fun experience the lady working in there was rude.“

“It’s inside the Sugar Donut shop. I dropped by yesterday with an intense craving of gelato and this little shop did not disappoint. The gelato flavors were on point. I had the rice flavor and the dark chocolate, both turned out to be delicious. Not too sweet but with plenty of flavor packed in. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Will go back soon.“

“Great food and people. Recommend the Pedro burrito and shredded beef quesadillas! Always a favorite.“

“The waffles cone and the ice cream were very good and the service was polite and prompt. The umbrella at our table was broken but we visited when the sun wasn't on us so it turned out ok. This place gets very busy normally, grateful there was no line during this visit. Great place to grab an ice cream.“

“This is our go-to place for good fast food and frozen custard. Servers are warm, polite, very friendly (shout out to Mariana). Food is great with ample servings - burgers, sandwiches, shrimp dinner and salads - it's good variety for a fast food place. Frozen custard especially the flavor of the day is always a real treat. We look forward to every visit in this location!“

“Staff was so welcoming and fun to interact with. Menu choices all look so good! I wasn’t disappointed. 😁“

“I have lived in Ballantyne for 2 years. Lisa is the store manager. Lisa is always in a bad mood. Lisa has been in a bad mood for two years. She is rude and doesn’t need to work in customer service. Whoever is Lisa’s boss needs to be aware of this. Do not be like Lisa.“

“This place is an absolute gem! Whether you’re stopping in for a quick treat or planning a casual meeting like we did, this place delivers every time. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, perfect for conversation, work, or simply relaxing with something sweet. Their selection of gelato is incredible — rich, creamy, and full of flavor (the Nutella Crunch and Coffee were standouts!). And their specialty drinks? A total surprise — unique, high-quality, and perfectly crafted. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the entire space had a great local charm that made it feel like more than just a dessert shop. It’s a must-visit for anyone in Charlotte looking to satisfy their sweet tooth or enjoy a laid-back, delightful outing. Highly recommend!“

“Best ice cream chain in the US. I have been to multiple locations and they always deliver the same quality and taste. Nothing comes close. I love how they mix in all the toppings with big spoons.
I always get the oreo overload and substitute oreos for a brownie. They have the best brownies.
I bet their ice cream cakes are really good too but I haven't got the chance to try them yet. The cales come in multiple sizes and only some stores carry the smallest size that is good for 2-4 people“

“I love Culver's, especially their cod fish sandwich or platter. I have never been disappointed, Love their ice cream also!“

“Picked up a dozen for my son's birthday today. They were soooooooooo good. This place never disappoints..“

“Jeni’s does it again! One of the best ice cream experiences you can ask for. The building and sign are next level at this location it’s a stand along retail spot that looks like it embodies & curates the best of ice cream. It literally beckons you from across the street at the shake shack. Making our way across the vibrant area street on National Ice Cream day nonetheless, you could smell the homemade waffle cones being made and cooked. The smell amplifies once you open the door and see them making a fresh waffle cones right in front of you. With lots of fresh and delicious looking flavors it was hard to resist the goat cheese and red cherries in a fresh waffle cones! Rich ice cream with a slight goat cheese tang were perfectly paired! Enjoyed every bite! 10 out of 10. The customer service was also spot on with plenty of samples, smiles and great attitudes…extremely refreshing!!“

“Was at Marble slab over the weekend. I know we were close to close but my daughter wanted ice cream. A young lady, named Jess, waited on us and was so sweet. She accommodated my daughter’s order and did it with a smile. Very refreshing to see since many teens seem so miserable to even be at work. Ice cream was great and will definitely be returning. Thank you Jess for making my daughters night“

“One of the employees, I believe his name was Deeren, really made my visit special. He walked me through the ice cream options with so much patience, had an easygoing vibe, and was genuinely pleasant to talk to. I went with cookies and cream, and it was absolutely delicious. I'll definitely be coming back!“

“Good visit. Clean, fast, order as expected. Friendly staff.“

“The tall young man working on Saturday 10/18 made my ice cream and did a great job. He was extremely kind and really put a smile on my face especially after a tough week. Glad to know we still have good customer service these days 🤭. The young lady working with him took a very hard tumble. Hope she’s okay!“
