36 Best Ice Cream Shops near Hillsborough

“We had 3 sets of 3 scoops. 3 different people with 3 very different tastes in ice cream. 9 different flavors. They were all wonderful and exciting. This is not your ordinary ice cream shop but please do not let that deter you from trying them out. Just expect to be a bit adventurous and go for it. They are a small batch artisan style shop with many unique flavors to try. We also grabbed 4 pints of other flavors to take home and try. The owner was awesome, explained all of the flavors and offered samples. The inside was very cute with a good amount of seating for an ice cream shop. Please go and try them out because this is the type of place that would be truly missed by anyone that has visited.“

“The most flavorful hard ice cream! The Dark Chocolate Raspberry Truffle? ::chef's kiss:: We mixed it with the cappuccino (great coffee flavor!) and my non-sweet-eating husband ate his half. The kids had a handful of very colorful chocolate dipped waffle cones to choose from and enjoyed their delicious colorbomb on the bench outside. They got the crazy vanilla (because rainbows are fun to eat!) and it was not only pretty but also had a really nice vanilla flavor. We'll definitely be going out of our way for this stop again! Also, special thanks to the counter staff for being extra patient with us.“

“After many friends telling how good AMA is I decided to grab a pie and meatball parm sub to give them a go. My words will not give their food justice but it is delicious. Napoletan done the right way. Not to mention the owner is beyond good people. Greeted me outside while I was waiting for them to open and then offered me an espresso while my food was being prepared. We will most certainly be back.“

“The ice and gelato are terrific“

“love the bubble tea and general atmosphere“

“Yummy ice cream, the best ice cream cakes, and good crunchies!“

“Went to Fresh Tiki Bar in Somerville for ice cream and wow, did not disappoint. It’s rich and creamy, you can just tell it’s made with good ingredients, not the cheap stuff. Not overly sweet either, which I loved. The tropical flavors were a fun twist, definitely not your average ice cream shop. Portions were generous too, no complaints there. Staff was super friendly and fast. Great little spot for a hot day, already thinking about my next visit. If you’re around Somerville and want something sweet, this is the move.“

“Fabulous service , selection And That Ice Cream !!!“

“great ice cream so worth the wait“

“Absolutely incredible custom cakes!! I have ordered several different cakes from them so far and am currently ordering another for an upcoming event. They go above and beyond to make your vision come to life. Super talented! I could not recommend them enough!!! Every one of your guests will be talking about your cake and asking where it came from!“

“🍦 Five Stars for a Sunday Sweet Spot!
We dropped by this Cold Stone late Sunday evening, and it was the perfect, low-key end to our family weekend. Since it wasn't crowded, the staff was incredibly patient with my kids as they picked out their favorite mix-ins.
The store was spotless, the service was friendly, and the ice cream was as rich and creamy as ever—nothing beats a fresh waffle bowl when you have the place almost to yourself. It was a great, stress-free treat for the whole crew. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Yum for the whole family!!! They’ll blow you away with the flavors and large array of selections. Lexie crafted the tastiest most well balanced coke float I’ve had in a long while.👏🙌🙌👏 Be back soon!!“

“We recently had my daughter’s soccer team lunch here on a Sunday afternoon. I spoke with the manager on duty the evening prior and it couldn’t have gone smoother. We had the whole top floor to ourselves. Service was amazing as was the food. We sometimes have issues splitting checks because the girls want to sit together away from their parents but they handled it with ease. I’m still dreaming of the delicious ice cream that was the cherry on top of a great experience.“

“What a truly wonderful experience it was coming here. This nice young lady that works there was very polite. There was a bit of traffic building up in there behind me, but she was very patient with me as I surely took quite a while to order a few things for my family members. Everything was clean, and freshly organized. She even made sure to reassure me that the utensils were all cleaned properly because I tend to get a bit skeptical due to the possibility of cross contamination. The ice cream quality was great! Much better than most other places in this area. I never asked for that young lady’s name but she wore a lot of bracelets, and had black nails just like my daughter, which I complemented! I will be back in here for sure!

Will recommend this place for all ice cream lovers!“

“The Gelatis are the best! Usually there’s a wide variety of ice flavors, lemon being my favorite!👍“

“The lady was so friendly! It was my first time here and she left me try the froyo flavors before I got to make my own and choose my own toppings. I will definitely be back. I wish they cut up strawberries and Oreos into bite size pieces but other than that everything was amazing!!“

“Where can I find grape sugar free Popsicles around 77503 area. Those were the best when I was in the hospital and I can't seem to find them anywhere. Ty!“

“A good, clean,fun & family friendly restaurant and ice cream shop!“

“I love the ice cream. But the best part was the service . There was one employee the day I went with my family and he was nice and fast talking the orders.

Even though he was alone he got the job done.

Monday August 3 whoever was on shift at 6:00 pm he deserved a raise!!“

“Went there for the first time ever n met Ava an employee there n I gotta say she has the most AMAZING energy n attitude!! Her customer service by far was best Ive ever had ☺,great smiley employee, great ice cream n shakes I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place n stop by n see her for great service!!! Comin back sooon 👍“

“I couldn’t be more pleased with the level of service I received. From beginning to end, everything was handled with the utmost professionalism and care. The staff, Mark, Avery & Emily, went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect, and their warm, attentive approach truly stood out. It’s rare to find such dedication and excellence these days, and I am grateful for the experience. I will definitely be recommending their services to family and friends.“

“The food is good I like the oreo drink,but the order took long because people kept interrupting and this family kept on interrupting the lady that kept doing the hard work and she was doing the hard work and atleast put a extra worker to help her“

“Visited Kwality Ice Cream and had a really great experience! The Badshahi Kulfi Falooda was the standout — rich, creamy, refreshing, and full of authentic flavors. The pani puri was also super tasty with crispy puris and a perfect spicy-tangy pani. The paan was fresh and made for a nice finish.

Special mention to Madhuram, the owner, for the warm hospitality and friendly service that made the visit even better.

Tip: ask them to mix Pudina and Khata Meetha pani with a little black salt — it takes the taste to another level! Also, if you prefer better flavor, request room temperature pani instead of very cold :)

Definitely a place worth visiting for authentic Indian desserts and street food!“

“We had a great experience for our son’s birthday party! Responsive, reliable, and affordable!“

“Love their custard but they really need to give the customer what they pay for. $5 for a large and they fill it like it's a small. My second issue with this place; consistency is key.“

“9/18/2020: A guy with blonde hair on top of his brown hair, was the nicest guy ever. I didn’t catch his name but he made my day better. He deserves more than the tip jar, he needs a raise for running the place. 5 stars, hope you get a raise :)“

“I had such an amazing experience at Shake Shack thanks to Jack! He truly went above and beyond to make sure our order was perfect. He was incredibly patient, kind, attentive, and made us feel genuinely taken care of. Jack did everything he could to make our experience a great one, and his customer service really stood out. It’s employees like him who make you want to come back. Thank you, Jack, for turning our visit into such a positive experience! Shake Shack is lucky to have you! ❤🍔“

“As a truck driver passing through New Jersey I came across Freddy’s off of US 1 and I had to do a review! The food was made fresh and it was delicious! I will be returning whenever I am passing through! I especially want to acknowledge the staff that was preparing and serving the food! Thank you so much for an impeccable experience! You all rocked!!!!!“

“Had a mix up with a custom cake... but they were ready to go above and beyond to fix the issue. Mistakes happen; it's how a company reacts to them that makes the difference. And besides that, the cake we did get was a hit with the recipient and delicious!“

“Love my local Rita's, they are a wonderful family owned business.“

“it's clean, has nice people working there, the food tastes real not that frozen bs, easy to order, they aren't cheap when you ask for extra toppings like once I asked for pickles and they gave me nicely cut pickle slices like a whole container“

“Wow!!! We asked them prepare little sweet and they just met all our expectations. They added real mango fruit instead of flavours and yogrut is YUMM!!! I loved the combo which is healthy. Service is exceptionally good👍. I would definitely recommend this place and I am eager to taste them all.“

“Great affogato if made by the right people. Went recently where there was a young gentlemen who made my desert. I get a double affogato, yet this time I received a cup of melted gelato with 2 cold shots of espresso mixed in. Morale of the story- don’t go if there is a young gentlemen there, or they need to train him because the method was wild. Scoop of gelato with one shot of espresso… proceeds to make another shot of espresso, adds more gelato to the already melted gelato and shot of espresso, and then adds the second shot on top. I received 2 bites of gelato with my cold shots of espresso. For an almost 10$ desert, I am quite disappointed“

“On the upside, the bacon double cheeseburger was one of the best I’ve ever had at a sonic. The limited time pink flamingo drink was tasty and I was glad it was available in a small size.
On the downside, I always forget how sweet their onion rings taste (but they tasted very fresh! It’s clear they keep up with changing out their fryer oil)
And they forgot the cheese I requested added to my chicken sandwich.
All in all, great location. I hope they keep up the good work. They helped create a simple happy memory for me and a friend.“

“Best Ice Cream. REAL homemade ice cream. Best quality in town. Delicious!“
