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“

“It smells soooo good. Once you get outside the store, you can smell the goodies. Once you get inside, you want to eat everything and buy everything it smells so good!!

The ice cream is some of the BEST I've ever had very fresh!! And you MUST try the pound cake is ABSOLUTELY Delicious ? it comes by the slice however you can order a whole cake. The cookies & brownies are delicious too!!

I most definitely recommended this place!!
This is a MUST place to stop and have dessert ?

Kid-friendliness: They have a kids' table and cute little activities things for kids“

“I had their vanilla ice-cream. It was rich and flavorful! Had a nice chat with the owner and he informed us that many of the ingredients and milk are sourced from local farmers and helps support our area which is great. Had a friend with me who said he’d love to try but he is lactose intolerant and it turned out they also had dairy free options. Definitely recommend!“

“Just went here over the weekend for the first time and all i can say is this is by far the BEST ice cream i’ve ever had. Vegan or not. it literally tastes healthy and not artificial in any way. and the PINTS. my gosh 🥹🥹 they are heaven. driving 20 minutes is definitely worth it to literally eat the best ice cream on earth. thank you for sharing your masterpiece with us ❤️❤️❤️“

“Gus & Yiayia's is a Pittsburgh must-do. Even if not from Pittsburgh, one can appreciate the nostalgia of Gus and his old time ice ball cart. The ice is hand shaved to order. The syrup flavor selection has many options to enjoy alone or as a combination. Summer in a cup! Popcorn and bottled water are also available for sale.“

“Consistently good ice cream and great people! Always a pleasure to stop!“

“I always make it a point to stop by in this yogurt shop when I come to squirrel hill. It’s sooo reasonable and so practical as they weigh it, so you can get any flavor, any toppings, as much as you like. This was the cheesecake flavor, the only sugar-free option, but I loved it!! Try the lychee popping boba topping, it’s a game changer for me!! Also they always have new flavors so always look forwards to it?“

“best fruit parfait ever.“

“The kids loved it! Nice local shop.“

“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!“

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

“Found this place when our other favorite ice cream place went out of business. What a jewel out in Bloomfield. They have a vast selection of different flavors and can do whatever you like. The service was great. It's easy to find. They are located in the middle of the block on the main strip so parking may be challenging. The posted hours are 10p close but we were told that its actually 10.30p. This was on a Saturday night in August. Give them a try!!!“

“My family LOVES Handel’s Homemade Ice Cream! We visit the McCandless location weekly! The staff is patient and amazing—especially when my kids want to sample different flavors! The ice cream is always fresh and tasty. I love to getting a hot fudge sundae to top off a long week, and my children love the seasonal birthday cake flavor and cake batter (with sprinkles)! I recently tried the deep dish apple pie flavor and OMG!! It was heavenly!!!!“

“My husband and I absolutely love Del's, we go about once a week. When I moved up here from Florida it took me over 2 years to find an ice cream place like the ones down home. Great selection of flavors and toppings and the staff is always super friendly.“

“Very good shakes but I wish they would get with the times and offer a small / mini size for the classics flavors. I don't go here often because they only offer that gigantic size and usually I just want a smaller portion for a cheaper price. End up at DQ usually as they offer mini and small.“

“Quick in and out nice staff easy easy load“

“Texas sheet cake is one of the best chocolate ice creams I've had. Lemon Bar and Banana Cream Pudding is also super yummy!! Offers to-go pints. Unfortunately, the servers added a Buttercrisp Waffle Chip, which isn't vegan, but it's easily removed (and if I had known they'd add it I would have asked for it to be omitted). Ice cream was still delicious though and definitely one of the best vegan ice creams I've had!“

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

“This newly opened spot in Oakland has a great atmosphere! I love that they come up with new flavors every month, keeping things exciting. The fact that it’s run by nurses and offers a healthcare worker discount makes it even more special. The chocolate was incredibly rich and delicious. Definitely a must-visit!“

“I hired them for my son's 1st birthday party. The ice cream is great and Cesar is great to work with. He was punctual and all set up before the start time.

He persevered through rain (outdoor venue), even made a couple of rounds through the party to make sure everyone had the ice cream.

Everybody at the party said the ice cream was great. It did take the party to the next level. Cannot recommend them more!“

“Hands down the best ice cream in the state. Always a large variety of flavor options and staff willing to answer any questions about the product. The best flavors are the cheesecake ones, no question!
The freshly made waffle cones always add a nice crunch and subtle vanilla flavor to every bite and pairs well with every flavor.
Don't forget to grab a pint, quart, or half-gallon to bring home to share (and of course have real ice cream on hand at all times).

Dietary restrictions: Plenty of options for those who want a nice dairy free or nut free treat.

Parking: Very rarely an issue to find parking, unless of course it's 90°F on a weekend evening, then the walk from your car may increase to 2 minutes from 30 seconds.

Kid-friendliness: Super fun staff and grassy seating area nearby.“

“I came here to say, I have never heard of this brand before but last night while shopping at my local Jay C (kroger), I stumbled across the Gluten free Gooey Butter cake ice cream and i’m so very glad I did!!! it’s delicious!!!! It’s not often us Gf people get to have cake and I actually don’t care for ice cream. I rarely eat it but that has all changed thanks to Jeni’s. I love it so much I might have ate half of it in one sitting….we listen and we don’t judge 😝. A+++++++++. Please don’t stop making this!“

“Really nice to take pints to go but also nice to get a scoop. High quality ice cream. Seemed like a fairly standard ice cream parlor setting (bright fluorescent lighting and linoleum faux wood flooring) so I didn't really want to stay to eat but I will get ice cream to go another time!“

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

“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!“

“The young lady that waited on us was very friendly and the treats were delicious.“

“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!“

“A great experience! Definitely will be visiting again ☺️“

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

“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“

“The staff were nice and friendly! The ice creams are good. I would say this place has normal ice cream flavors. There are a few that are a creation, and the rest are basic. I also saw some m&m cookies there and I had to try them, they were good, they reminded me of the chips ahoy candy blast, flavors were pretty similar.“

“We ordered several Charlie’s Super Square for a party. 24 slices for $23! Great deal.They came hot and fresh. Absolutely delicious! Everyone at the party raves about the pizza. We will definitely order again!“

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

“Yummy my mom favorite place“

“Makayla was amazing , I’m a difficult customer to have because of all of my allergies but she was patient and helped make sure that every allergy was accounted for and all safety procedures were met. Makayla even made a special order for me to make the perfect blend dairy free coconut milk mint ice cream with hydrox cookies inside. She’s amazing and cares about her customers health, allergies, and satisfaction. A++ service and ice cream!

Dietary restrictions: Dairy“

“What's your favorite thing here? Mohammad! Love the store, smells good unlike some places around there, and you can always find someone wearing a smile even on a rainy day! BE fierce! Cash in on spending your time on your own account supporting local businesses!“

“Ice cream sandwiches are amazing 😻“

“Went here because my daughter had been seeing a bunch of ads for it on social media and I had never heard of it so we figured let's go try.

In terms of ordering experience it's pretty straight forward as you place your order on one of two computers they have and then step aside and wait for your name to be called.

In regards to the space itself it was bright and pleasing to look at and clean.

Let's talk about the cookies, now taste is of course subjective but I found the cookies to taste good, not the best I have ever had but pretty good.

Now the following is going to again be subjective but to me the cookies are too under done, my kids liked that raw cookie dough feeling and texture but I would have liked them to have been a bit more firm. I had thought it was because they were fresh that they were so soft but even after a few hours at home to cool the cookies where still very much undercooked and infact my one definitely had some raw dough in the middle. My wife and kids through loved this fact so again this might be amazing if you like a cookie like that or it might be a turn off if you like a done and crumbly cookie.

Your paying for the hype and agressive marketing this company does, a dozen was nearly $50 dollars and they are not worth that to me, again subjective, but I have had better cookies at a local famous bakery in Oakmont for significantly less and with equal/better quality.

Honestly this place reminds me of when Krispy Cream came to town and the experience of getting a hot and fresh donut was new and exciting but after a while you came to realize that while it was a good donut it was not anything special and this place feels the same but with cookies.“

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

“Sriracha ice cream! 😋 Nice people. Decent prices.“

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

“comida deliciosa al igual que las aguas frescas. super recomendado, vamos a volver y ser clientes frecuentes“

“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) :)“

“I am not usually a sweet tooth, but I love Waffalonia for a guilt-free dessert. You can customize your waffle, and it’s delicious—perfect for sharing between two people! The place is small with limited seating, but it’s definitely worth a visit for a tasty treat.“

“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!“

“had lunch dec. 13th all 4 of us had a good time thanks to our waitress terry, food was fantastic“
