22 Best Ice Cream Shops near Kennett Square

“Hangrybear in Kennett is more than just a place to grab a bite—it’s an experience that keeps surprising and delighting us every time. From the moment we walk in, we’re greeted with warm, friendly service that makes us feel like family. Their menu is thoughtfully crafted with a mouth-watering variety of high-quality, inventive options that satisfy everyone from picky kids to food-loving adults.

My wife and I always split one of their seasonal sandwiches and a fresh, vibrant salad that bursts with flavor, texture, and the best ingredients around. Tonight, we enjoyed the crunch salad—our go-to favorite—and savored every bite of the turkey Rachel Sammy special, a perfect combination of savory, tangy, and fresh. Our girls happily split the crispy chicken fingers and gooey grilled cheese, which are always a hit.

To top it off, dessert is an absolute must here! We indulged in pumpkin and Biscoff cheesecake ice cream, each bite a little piece of heaven. It’s rare to find a place that nails both food and sweets so perfectly, but Hangrybear does it with style.

They’ve quickly become a staple in our lives, not just for the food but for the memories they help us create. From Bluey breakfasts to other family-friendly events, Hangrybear has become a tradition we look forward to, a beloved spot in the community where we feel at home.“

“very good. the crepes were 😋. We had a great lunch. also, the cappuccino was excellent!! very friendly place.“

“Great ice cream, fun atmosphere, even has live music on occasion. It’s pet friendly and our dog loves visiting and being able to go check out the cows when they are out.

Parking: Parking is on gravel and lawn areas. It does get busy especially in the summer.

Kid-friendliness: Kids love ice cream. There’s a large lawn that the kids can run around in while you spend time here.“

“We are visiting from Indiana and decided to stop by for a sweet treat. Service was excellent, we got a small Belgian cookie which was DELICIOUS, a small mango which was also very good and a medium Oreo. My family and I enjoyed all three flavors and left very happy!
We really liked that they are open past 10pm. It really helped us out and it was such an inviting and cute atmosphere. Everything looked clean and definitely recommend this establishment!“

“Delightful premises and delicious ice cream. OMG, the Vanilla Salted Caramel was to die for. The waffle cone was so crunchy and flavorful. Loved the setting with benches and tables scattered under a giant beautiful tree and cows on the hillside. Some crazy flavor options too... such as, Pumpkin Mushroom and Motor Oil! Wish I could have tried them all.“

“Great selection of ice creams, cute little location, and staff was super nice. Location is on a Main Street so after ice cream you can walk around.“

“Ironically, I just read another review that echoed my own frustration at this Rita’s. A few weeks ago, I brought my daughter’s softball team for a postgame treat and was shocked to learn that an option to tip with a credit card doesn’t exist. Glad to know I’m not the only person who thinks this is a bad idea. After receiving such great service, I was embarrassed when I couldn’t leave a tip and had to apologize to the nice girl who gave us such great service. C’mon Rita’s get with the program!“

“Great ice cream… many years ago there was a lot of fruit in their ice cream: no longer bits of tasty fruit ?. But still enjoyable. Their frozen bars are $2 and still has fruit in it. You are not wasting your money with this treat. There is also another ice cream place at farmers market. Enjoy! ?“

“Delicious! Very unique flavors (told they were more traditional Mexican flavors) as well as the usual go-to's. The staff are super friendly, took the time to explain the flavors and give samples!! The ice cream was creamy and refreshing. 10/10, definitely going back. We had Fresa con queso, tequila, mamey and a Mexican raspberry torte mix (sorry couldn't remember the name for the last one). All delicious and the portions were very generous.“

“Staff was great, took my nieces and dog 🐶 for ice cream. We sat on the benches and enjoyed our treats and our pup got her first ice cream scoop with dog bones 🦴 in her bowl 🍚. It was a fun experience 🍦. Thank you 😊“

“Love love love their ice cream! Every time we are in the area we try to stop. The queso flavor is the best!“

“I didn't catch her name, but she offered me a taste of the lemon meringue pie with pieces of Graham Cracker ice cream... all I can say is... YUMMMMMY!!! I'M DEFINITELY GOING BACK!!!“

“service was great ice cream was alsome I only see one way to raise service maybe if the girls were top less, ice cream & boobies boobies & ice cream YEAH“

“I love Dairy Queen. I had a mini Reese’s Blizzard. It was delicious & reasonably priced. I will definitely be going back in the future.“

“Wonderful chocolates and the best feminist Uterus Cookies -what a cute and wonderful concept! ;)“

“We love coming here for quick eats and ice cream. There is such a large selection of ice cream and food. The food is typical friendly’s food. We also love how involved they are with kids and the community. My kids go to north star elementary and this place constantly hosts events for us.“

“Great staff and the BEST frozen yogurt!!!!“

“Went with my son tonight and had great service . We will definitely go here for ice cream more often 🍦“

“What a convenient concept. I placed my order very easily through their site and within an hour and 15 minutes (20 minutes away), was receiving warm cookies. Cookies and the Blondie brownie taste great. Attractive packaging, ease in process and very convenient. I would definitely order again.“

“Food is generally very good. Sometimes, the food prep doesn't pick up any alterations. I ordered sandwich with grilled onion instead of raw and I still got raw. Not worth returning the food but attention to detail would be nice. This has happened to me in the past as well.“
