50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Aspinwall

“Great place great coffee and food“

“This is a special place. Liege waffles are very different than anything I've ever had. They are made from a yeast dough, with caramelized brown sugar inside, smallish, and served warm in a napkin so that you can take it with you while window shopping. Please note: these are not meant to be served with ice cream on top. The ice cream and waffles are both very good by themselves. The owner only serves them together because people ask for that, but I think they ask for it because they think that's how it's meant to be served. (At least, that's what we thought!)“

“I had a Chocolate/banana softserve twist here last week and it was DELICIOUS“

“Their ice cream is really good! They have a ton of flavors to choose from and the employees are extremely friendly!“

“There’s nothing like discovering a new ice cream shop when you travel. I love trying out local ice cream wherever I go and Millie‘s homemade ice cream definitely did not disappoint.

These ice cream flavors were some of the richest, most decadent I have ever experienced and that is coming from an ice cream aficionado.

After dinner, we walked to Millie‘s from our Airbnb and after sampling many different flavors, I finally settled upon the backyard s’mores and the brownie batter. Both flavors absolutely stuck true to their names and packed a punch.

I think I preferred the backyard s’mores just slightly because the brownie batter was SO decadent and SO rich it almost was too much. The keyword there being “almost”.

So if you are looking for some smooth, creamy, delicious ice cream in the Lawrenceville area, come check out Millie’s.“

“We recently visited The Milkshake Factory in Pleasant Grove, and it was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish. The moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by Micah, the owner, who made us feel like family. It was as if he had known us for years! Micah’s hospitality was unmatched. He generously offered us free samples of their incredible chocolate, encouraging us to try as much as we liked. It was such a thoughtful gesture that truly set the tone for our visit. As for the milkshakes, they were out of this world! I indulged in the Bananas Foster Milkshake, which was rich, creamy, and bursting with flavor. My wife couldn’t get enough of her Cookie Brownie Fudge milkshake—it was the perfect blend of decadent flavors. Our kids loved their classic Vanilla Milkshakes, which were smooth and delicious. The attention to detail, quality of ingredients, and exceptional customer service made this visit unforgettable. We can’t wait to return and try more of their amazing offerings. If you’re in Pleasant Grove, do yourself a favor and stop by The Milkshake Factory—you won’t be disappointed!“

“This was my first time trying this frozen yogurt shop and I loved it! The yogurt was so creamy and delicious, and the fresh fruit toppings made it even better. I really like that they offer so many different flavors and topping options it’s easy to find something for everyone. The staff was friendly and the shop has a welcoming vibe. I’ll definitely be back!“

“worth it?“

“Del’s Plum Creamery is amazing! I love trying new milkshake spots when I travel, and this was hands down the best one yet! Staci, the owner, even came outside to check in with us — her passion for her shop really shows! Can’t wait to stop by again next time we’re in PA! Thanks again, Staci!“

“We stopped here after dinner while on vacation in Pittsburgh and loved it so much we went back a couple days later! Staff is super friendly, the store is super clean, portions are huge and the value is great. I can't recommend Pittsburgh Potholes enough, it's so tasty! The only downside of Scoops in Bloomfield is that there's limited indoor seating - it gets crowded easily so keep this in mind if you plan to dine in during peak times.“

“Amazing ice cream, fantastic service, clean store, cool and fun vibe! This place is AWESOME!“

“First time visit Wish I have known about this place before now Definitely will return ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Delicious and always served with a friendly smile! Black Cherry“

“The kids loved it! Nice local shop.“

“This place is amazing, local and they have very unique handmade flavor offerings that my family loves. I’m giving them four stars after multiple times driving across town, with excited children only to be greeted with a paper on the window explaining some special circumstances for which they have to be closed for the day. If only they would update their hours online.“

“Wonderful fresh ice cream and GREAT service.“

“Delicious homemade ice cream! We just picked up pints of banana chocolate chip and chocolate raspberry truffle and both were AMAZING! Love this place!“

“I got a waffle cone dipped in chocolate and sprinkles with chocolate chip ice cream. The cone was $7 but the best ice cream I've had. A pint of ice cream was also $7. Even though we were the only customers I felt rushed. It was my first time there and they do have alot of goodies. I can't wait to go back!“

“Omgosh please open one in nyc!! Amazing dairy free gluten free ice-cream with cones!!!!“

“Quick in and out nice staff easy easy load“

“I'm lactose intolerant. They really don't have a selection for it. They have a limited selection for it. But they made me a delicious type of mango sorbet topped with strawberries and nuts that was very good ! My boyfriend ordered an ice cream cone 1 scoop which turned out to be what looked like 3 scoops ! Portions are generous and prices are decent ! Recommended!“

“Great ice cream! Every time were in Pittsburgh we make sure we stop in. It’s the best place“

“so many flavors, custom milkshakes, seasonal milkshakes, they have classic comfort flavors higher quality than any store bought.., and creative flavors that will satisfy sweet tooth, ALSO with a wide selection of toppings! hot fudge or caramel, butterscotch, different kinds of fruits, you have to see it for yourself! not to mention hand-packed pints!! great for after dinner, even the day after, or to share with a friend. friendly staff that are happy to help you explore new flavors too. definitely recommend!!........p.s you have so many opportunities; this vanilla milkshake was blended with fruity pebbles, and has strawberry jam around the edge. breakfast for dessert, there's so much you can do!“

“Coffee is excellent! Great selection of ice cream and staff is very nice. Highly recommend.“

“This place is cool- they make their own chocolate so their milkshakes are delicious“

“A splurge and more of a high-end ice cream experience, Jeni’s offers high quality ice cream with unique specialty flavors. You can sample as many flavors as you’d like, and they serve samples on metal spoons that they wash, which is a pretty unique and sustainable sample model for an ice cream shop! I was between multiple flavors after sampling (which speaks to how good the options are that I was so indecisive when picking two flavors), and the staff helped me narrow down my choices by making recommendations of flavor pairings. I had the brown butter almond brittle and salted peanut butter with chocolate flecks, while my husband had gooey butter cake and double dough. I found that due to the richness of the ice creams, a small serving was sufficient, but you pay a premium because of the quality.“

“The ice cream is a great option for a snack on the hot days. It is easy to find and not overpriced. It is very tasty and the staff are very friendly. There was not a long wait when we stopped, and service was quick. It's definitely a spot to stop at the zoo.“

“Just tried the cappuccino flavor at a tasting in the Grove Kosher Market , South Euclid, Ohio. Rich, creamy, and nice flavor. Consistency was good. I would recommend a little more coffee flavoring for a more intensified taste. 4/5“

“Great flavors and options. Large scoop size!“

“Millie’s is absolutely amazing. While working in the area. I had the pleasure of meeting Steven. I inquired where his business was and that I would need to come and try his ice cream. Surprise he brought me and my coworkers a goodie bag. The strawberry pretzel, s’mores, cookies and cream, and chocolate was the most delicious I have ever tasted. Oh and those waffle cones ♥️“

“Great quality and flavor but too many candy pieces in the high five candy bar flavor . I want more ice cream and less candy.“

“Yum“

“Omgosh please open one in nyc!! Amazing dairy free gluten free ice-cream with cones!!!!“

“Delicious and always served with a friendly smile! Black Cherry“

“I had Leonas ice cream sandwiches as the dessert for my outdoor spring wedding. My now husband and I both LOVE ice cream and when we decided that's what we wanted to have for our special day I knew Leonas was the choice. We got to pick from SO many of their delicious seasonal flavors - narrowing it down was the hardest part! They were SO detailed and thorough in helping me ensure the sandwiches were served appropriately. All of our guests RAVED about how perfect the ice cream was for the day and how delicious they were. It was a hilarious bonus that the pre-wrapped treats were much more portable than a slice of cake - MANY of them made it out onto the dance floor! Couldn't recommend them more as a DELICIOUS and super fun addition to any event.“

“Great Staff & Cappuccino Blast“

“This Bruster's is far better than any other ice cream shop in the area. It was "Every Given Sunday" but after Covid, they closed permanently. This place has excellent mango sorbet and Chocolate ice cream shakes and pint size. Friendly. Helpful and the ice cream tops every place I've been too. Cool Cones is awful and can't compare!“

“Best Ice Cream cakes ever!!! My family loves them🥰“

“Isaly’s Ice Cream is a true Pittsburgh staple for a reason. This was our first time trying it, and we were not disappointed.

You can get your own pints at Giant Eagle, Kuhn’s, and Shop ’n Save. Definitely will be purchasing again!“

“I LOVE THIS PLACE!! I tried this place few months ago , since then it has become my go to place for coffee and ice cream. I have taken my friends here and they love it as much as I love it!! I come here because of great staff, coffee and feel of this cafe. I usually don't give review on cafes, since they haven't impressed me this much yet!! I like simple stuff and Churn is just amazing and simple !! Thank You and please don't relocate or anything. Much love Jasnoor Kaur (the hot Mocha girl) :)“

“great food and service, very nice employees. food does not take long to come out and is consistently good everytime. me and my girlfriend come here a lot and order the enchiladas and birria tacos, we always finish all of our food. one of the best hidden restaurants in pittsburgh“

“First time experience at The Barnyard Coffee and Creamery today and it was excellent! Super friendly helpful staff and the ice cream was superb! My son got a vanilla shake and the kind woman whipped me up an espresso caramel vanilla shake. The perfect ending after a hot day at deer lakes park. Will definitely be returning in the future. (especially with it only being 3 min from the park) Highly recommend!“

“Service is usually great, but if your posted hours are until 9pm, why are you closed before 8:30pm?“

“I check the weekly offerings and try to plan a trip when something sounds appealing. I will say that I have enjoyed 95% of the ones I tried. You can't go wrong with the semi-sweet chocolate chip. The pineapple upside down cake was delicious. The orange creamsicle flavor was spot on. They recently had a peanut butter crisp cookie featuring Butterfinger. It tasted like the candy bar in cookie form.“

“We received one of their chocolate trays as a holiday gift. Everything we tried has been so good. The chocolate has such a wonderful taste. I will definitely be purchasing in the future. Please give them a try.“

“biscuits and gravy slaps, their burritos slap, they have a wild amount of drink options. The dining room is typically always clean, they do get packed sometimes because of how good they can be. They worked very hard to get where they are in the industry here in the 719. make sure to support your local businesses no matter what! This place had dreams of being a restraunt and made it happen!“

“I have a matcha problem and I really enjoyed the matcha ice cream here. Levels 2 and 3 were great but I’m sure that level 1 is good too! Good customer service as well. I also liked that there were non-matcha flavors available for my non-matcha consuming companions.“

“Best coffee on Walnut Street! The mango frappe is also awesome.“

“I stopped into SIMPLE SUBS today. I CHOSE A CHEESESTEAK SUB. IT WAS DELICIOUS. IF YOU HAVE NEVER STOPPED IN YOU SHOULD TRY IT OUT CUZ IT'S GREAT.“
