50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Whitestone

“The gelato here tastes AMAZING! The staff is really nice, and you can sample flavors. I ordered the super big size which isn’t big to me with the raspberry cheesecake, Reese’s, and deep chocolate gelatos. They were all delicious, but the deep chocolate was by far the best! The deep chocolate gelato was the best chocolate gelato I’ve ever had thus far! Potions are very small so I recommend ordering the largest size. I highly recommend Chillato in Whitestone!“

“A true neighborhood gem! This ice cream spot has an amazing local vibe — warm, welcoming, and full of character. They offer a wide variety of flavors, from classic favorites to unique and seasonal creations. Everything tastes incredibly fresh and creamy, and the portions are generous. The staff is super friendly and always happy to let you sample before choosing. Whether you're grabbing a quick cone or hanging out with friends on a sunny day, this place feels like home. Highly recommended“

“I had a great experience at Shake ’N Swirl. My daughter absolutely loves this place, and it’s quickly become one of our favorites.

The prices are very affordable, especially for the quality and variety they offer. The place is clean, well organized, and has a fun, colorful atmosphere that makes it enjoyable for families.

The service was excellent—everyone was friendly, welcoming, and helpful. You can tell they care about their customers.

Another big plus is the parking—there’s plenty of space, and it’s very easy to access the location.

Overall, a great spot for ice cream and treats. Highly recommend, especially if you’re going with kids!“

I couldn’t finish mine it was so big! That’s what she said.Staff was super attentive and Friendly and they kept the customers flowing and going.Would definitely come back on a Wednesday for something sweet.“

“A few years ago, I was hired to write a series of articles about regional Italian cuisine. Since then, I have been looking for traditional Italian gelato. Until yesterday, I have been consistently disappointed. But this? It was absolutely EVERYTHING I had dreamed about. The prices weren't ridiculous, the bathroom was PRISTINE, the staff were helpful and friendly and it was incredibly, amazingly delicious. My only complaint is that I live too far away from your stores to get it very often. But about that? My hips are less upset about the distance. :) I will definitely be back, though!“

“Best tacos de cecina, enchilladas suizas and birria consome around. Oh and great micheladas too. Fun ranchera and banda music on the screens all day, nice vibes and friendly staff. A relaxed and authentic Mexican spot for those in the know. They also used to do karaoke on Friday nights, not sure if thats still a thing..“

“The space is really big and spacious. I came here with my toddlers and we got one waffle with cookie & cream gelato with m&m and condensed milk. Another waffle with matcha gelato. My kids loved their waffles absolutely delicious. Hoping to make another trip here with my kids. I didn’t get a photo with my matcha as my husband had already started on it.“

“It’s a must try, taste is great, different flavors of awesomeness“

“I could never complain about the food and quality. It’s insane. Really really good food. But the talking at the register, the slow line, the incredibly long wait for a sandwich is wacky. No matter if it’s clientele or personnel causing the hold up, you shouldn’t have folks waiting an hour for a sandwich.“

“Brown butter cookie dough is a must.“

“Very nice cookies that taste splendid! However the staff could be a little more enthusiastic (referring to the ones that have worked there for a while, I get it can be tiring to put on a smiley face for each customer that walks in, but you are getting paid to do it and it makes their experience 10x better!). So, there are many new employees who are very welcoming and kind!“

“the original one and only ice cream Italian ice stand way before Luigi way before Guido's a local favorite quality products made fresh“

“I recently bought the Earl Grey Tea and Berry Cornbread at my local Kroger store and was blown away! The richness and the flavor profiles were out of this world, especially the latter flavor of the two. It’s dangerous to know the Kroger store is only five minutes from my house. I’ll definitely be trying other flavors.“

“Is so great guys should try it u be amazed“

“Its such a clean place,with delicious flavors and awesome staff�����. I always recommend it too my friends.“

“I loved the place, we had a lot of fun, many different flavors and all were very good, we attended to a class with Omar and it was amazing, we already want come back, my only problem was that it was difficult to pick what you want, because everything was very good I really recommend this place, amazing cocktails and the service couldn’t be better“

“Sooo good! I wish it wasn’t so far for me, because I’d be here everyday. Because of the travel for me, I wish there was a number I could call to see if they’re opened or not. The last time I went, they were closing up because of the weather and were a bit rushy.“

“I wish I could give Jessica and the amazing team at Carvel in Woodside more than 5 stars! They always come through with amazing designs and beautiful cakes whenever we need. Most recently I surprised my son's class with Lunar new year ice cream cups and they were so beautiful! Everyone was blown away. Thank you as always for being a wonderful community member, for having the best ice cream and for bringing smiles to kids and adults alike! 😍“

“Only Rare NYC is definitely a spot worth checking out. The ice cream is amazing, but what really stood out to me was the experience and customer service. The owner, Jarred Carter, is a great guy and you can tell he genuinely cares about his customers and the quality of his business. Everything feels welcoming and authentic. If you’re in NYC and looking for a great ice cream spot, I highly recommend showing Only Rare some love. I’ll definitely be back!“

“First time trying froyo and had such an amazing time. I was greeted by a friendly staff at the front desk. He was very helpful in explaining explaining to me the process on how you get your froyo. The flavors seemed endless which was awesome and they tasted just as good as they look.“

“My husband, son & I went to mango mango dessert. The service was very nice & people was very sweet. The dessert & teas was great. We would go back again soon.😊“

“Gelato was delicious. My daughter had the Matcha soft-serve ice cream ($9) and loved it. I had the Apple Pie gelato. It had chunks of apple in it and was good ($10 for a medium size cup). Place has a small space where about five people could sit. It’s more of a grab and go spot. I took off one star because it’s a bit pricey. Staff was super nice.“

“Delicious ice cream!!🍦🍨🍧😊“

“Great local frozen yogurt spot. We appreciate that there are always sugar-free flavors available. And usually a dairy free option. Most yogurt places around us only offer no sugar added, and are limited to one flavor if available. There also are sugar-free and gluten-free muffins. The scones are amazing. And there’s a bunch of frozen bagel options, cookies and brownies available. Plenty of toppings, for sugar-free they have chocolate chip chips and hot fudge. There’s also indoor and outdoor seating. Staff is friendly, fast and helpful.“

“The ice cream is excellent, but they need to bring back bread and roses. ;)“

“I was pleasantly greeted by the wonderful gelato attendant. The young gentleman Walter was incredibly polite and offered samples to help us make our selections. We ordered the tiramisu, mixed berry, Figo, and the vanilla chocolate mix. The ice cream was complemented with a waffle cone. (Crumbly and sweet :))

The gelato is not very sweet, velvety and bright. The beauty of small bath gelato is its freshness.

The place is impeccable.

Please go visit Walter and order your fresh scoops of gelato in the neighborhood.

I’ll be back for an affogato.

Thanks!“

“It was my first time going to Ralph's Italian Ices and Ice Cream, and I absolutely loved it. They have a variety of flavors (over 100 of them!), and no matter what you get, whether a twister, sundae, or iceberg, you are always in for a delicious treat. Customer service was great! I will return, for more.“

“While taking a quick walk with my pals, we stumbled upon a quaint delicacy that’s swept the nation titled “AMPLE HILLS CREAMERY”.

Being accompanied by some of ice cream’s biggest fans, we meandered in and were astonished by the stores aesthetic dedicated to cows and hills. Here is where we met AHC’s celebrity employee, Nick. He granted us the true star treatment that made US feel like the celebrities. From free sample tastings, to take away tattoos & stickers, Nick made this place feel like home.

There truly is a number of selections for all & all will leave AHC feeling quite satisfied. So thank you AHC and our fave, Nick. We will return. Five stars.“

“Id like to share my wonderful experience at this crepe place. The crepes are absolutely delicious with a wide variety of toppings that are served very generously. The staff is friendly and welcoming and the owner is incredibly kind making every visit enjoyable. If you're looking for amazing desserts and great service I highly recommend this place. I will definitely be coming back.“
