18 Best Ice Cream Shops in Ottawa

“Top shop for a scoop with homemade cones and nut-free and vegan options try it!“

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

“Can you even say you’ve eaten ice cream if you’ve never tried Moo Shu? Hands down the best ice cream in Centretown. Thank you for the bubble waffles, the Hong Kong milk tea ice cream but most of all for transforming flavours from my childhood into unique and tasty treats that all of Ottawa can enjoy! 😊🙏🏻❤️“

“Tried a whole variety of Chris’s ice cream this weekend (7 different flavours). They were all delicious!!! My absolute favourite was the lemon ice. The texture and lemony taste was the best I’ve ever had anywhere in the world, including Italy! You’ve certainly got that recipe perfected Chris. I can’t wait to get back to Ottawa for more.“

“The Nut Fudge ice cream is my new favourite. That was amazing. Thank you“

“Delicious flavors and an amazing location“

“Stopped in for ice cream on this sunny day. Service was great and the ice cream was delicious! It’s nice to see some classic flavours and a few different ones if you are feeling a bit adventurous. Can’t wait to go again!“

“best portions and the cherry slushy is on point. Not watery at all The one in kanata must have a broken slushy machine because there's a huge difference. I think it's been new management for a while now and they're definitely doing well now.“

“I came two nights in a row, and while I love your frozen yogurt and toppings, I wanted to leave a review for your staff! The two young girls (first with long brown hair in a ponytail and second with brown hair in a bun with a chopstick) working around 8pm tonight were lovely. I’m sorry I didn’t catch their names. The girl with the bun remembered me from last night. The store had stickers of all the mascots, except Chip (he happens to be the employee’s favourite too). When I saw the employee again tonight, she told she thought of me today and wanted to bring her temporary tattoos of Chip in case I came back (so cute and sweet)! As for the second employee (ponytail), I told her I was annoyed for them every time customers sampled and carelessly spilled yogurt. She smiled and said that she was there “for that”. I find it admirable to see teens that are willing to work hard, all while having an amazing attitude!“

“Nice place to enjoy this summer“

“Roll’d Up is the cutest little ice cream spot in Ottawa - and honestly, I probably come here a little too often! The rolled ice cream is fresh and fun, but their cheesecake is truly the best I’ve had. The staff are consistently friendly, welcoming, and make the experience even better with their excellent service.“

“I really like Menchie's as a whole. They're got a good variety of flavours and toppings and I always end up spending less than I expect to. The servers are pleasant, if a bit inattentive and the patio is quite nice in the summer. The biggest problem with this location is that it often feels a bit run down. The machines are often a little wonky, often dispensing almost liquid froyo, there's sometimes garbage or sticky residue left around and the toppings, especially the cooled ones, are sometimes depleted. Though I think this just comes from the fact that the location itself is too small and understaffed for how busy it gets.“

“Beautiful people excellent food. Worth every penny!!“

“We went in a class trip to the playground, and called ahead to let them know the students would be buying ice cream at the Beach Shack. It turned out to be a rainy day and they opened for the students so that the students wouldn’t be disappointed. They were friendly, kind and helpful to the students and we appreciated the fantastic service. This is the second time we have taken our students here and would highly recommend the Beach Shack.“

“I come from a place that prides itself with ice cream, but after getting my hands on malak’s vanilla, caramel, hazelnut, pistachio, cookies n cream, black cherry and more flavoured ice cream, it made me forget all about the ice cream i enjoyed for most of my life.This was truly the best and most delicious gelato I ever tried.Cant wait to have some more.“

“It's not ice cream if it isn't from Baskin Robbins!!“

“c'était bon , c'est à essayer“

“best bubbletea and awesome drink“
