22 Best Ice Cream Shops in Hamilton

“Yesterday tried vadapav, it was very fresh and yummy. Looking forward to try different delicacies in next visit to Ice flame.“

“High-quality handmade ice creams. A good selection of flavors (both dairy and vegan options available as well). We enjoyed the oreo, cookie dough, lemon cookie, dunkaroo, and smoked vanilla. Each flavor we tried was delicious and you could taste the quality of the ingredients. We will definitely be back.“

“They have the best variety of ice cream. They don’t call it Biggies for no reason. The ice cream cones are huge. My favourite place to go.“

“A big shoutout to Domenic for his amazing talent in making the most delicious and beautiful uncrumbled Birthday cakes and having The Best Customer Service in the City. Our 2-1/2 yr old grand-daughter sat with her nose an inch from the sprinkled covered cake waiting for me to serve. The cakes were loved by all. 💜“

“I recommend visiting it. He has ice cream, sweets, cocktails and very tasty snacks“

“Enormous scoops. Made the mistake of getting two scoops. 🤣 Had Maple Walnut. Delicious!!! Highly recommend.“

“this is my absolute most favorite place to go when iam downtown Hamilton! I have been going here for many years now! the lady who runs this place is always soo friendly! she always has a smile on her face when you walk threw the door! she loves to get to know her customers! I recommend A&J superbowl to everyone I met. this is the BEST spot to get bubble tea and many more sweets! 💯🤞🏻“

“Our fav is their Half and Half. Tried a few flavours and all seem to be perfect. What we don’t like is the absurd self-made rule of stop serving milk shakes 15 mins before closing. Turned around two times now for being 2 mins late and the excuse that they just washed the blenders. They should honour the customer rather than giving these excuses. When your closing time is 10pm then you should be serving everything on the menu until that time or change your closing time to 9:45pm and ask your people to start washing blenders after that. Good food is one thing but having such an attitude towards customer destroys everything. The owner or whoever is making these rules should take notice“

“Best Gelato in Hamilton and good value! Highly recommend“

“I came from Toronto to Hamilton for a welcome cake, and Bhoomi at the Rymal Dairy Queen was amazing! She went out of her way to message me every step of the process, even sending me a picture to make sure it was exactly what I wanted. The cake turned out beautiful and delicious — it made our celebration so special! 🎂✨“

“Was in there for lunch today, I recommend the Shawarma poutine. Decent price and good size portions, plus very clean and great staff“

“Would recommend — large portions of delicious food for a great price!!“

“Very Tasty Chicken Tika Masala with Garlic nan and very. Friendly Staff. We will be back again. I highly recommended. Thank you.“

“So delicious and fun!! Beware...it can add up quickly!!!“

“The frozen yogurt here is quite predictable but solid tasting, however it is quite pricy for the quantity. It is comparable in terms of taste and price to other ice cream shops in the area.Besides single serve cones, ready-made ice cream cakes are also available on-hand and can be customized quickly.I appreciate that they have some alternative options such as sugar-free.“

“This is one of the best dessert spots in the city! I always enjoy coming here. Their shakes are the best — fresh, tasty, and full of flavor. The ice cream and other desserts are amazing too. The staff is friendly, the place is clean, and the service is fast. If you love sweet treats and refreshing shakes, you have to try this location. Highly recommended!“

“My experience with Dairy Queen tonite was superb I really enjoyed there peanut buster parfait and my mom really enjoyed her pecan mudslide“

“Absolutely amazing baked goods! I’ve been df/gf for close to 13 years and never have I ever found products that not only have a great variety of options but for them to taste so incredibly delicious! This will definitely be an absolute must stop and fill up when we are in town. So incredibly yummy and not overly sweet like some places.“

“I visited the Baskin-Robbins located on Upper James. This evening, the two staff members who served me were very friendly and professional. The young lady suggested I try the Mango Mania, and I was pleased with her recommendation. I arrived at the store 15 minutes before closing, but she made me feel very welcome. The customer service was excellent, and the store was immaculate.“

“I’ve been coming to Marble Slab for many years now, and it’s one of those places that never loses its magic 🍦. Every visit feels like a little tradition—picking a flavour, piling on the mix-ins, and watching it all come together on the slab 😍. The ice cream is always rich, creamy, and full of flavour, and the staff are consistently friendly and welcoming. I also love their stamping system—it’s such a fun way to reward regulars like me, and honestly, it’s just another reason to keep coming back. The shop is always clean and inviting, making it just as much about the experience as the ice cream itself. After all these years, it’s still one of my favourite spots for a sweet treat 🎉!”“

“Amazing team! Always pleased with their work! Thank you DQ Hamilton Mountain(Fennell@ Upper Sherman) HAPPY EASTER!“

“my daughter bought the chicken tender meal for both of us. She asked for the smokey BBQ sauce on them. Plus used a coupon for buy one banana split or parfait get one free. The tenders with the sauce were so good.“
