50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Mckeesport

“Ordered a birthday cake and it exceeded our expectations. Cookie dough and Reese cup cake was delicious! Would definitely order another in the future.“

“Great little local place! The parfaits and sundaes are really big and the cherry on top was HUGE! They even offered a pup cup for our dog.
I also just want to give them a shout out for keeping the inside SPOTLESS. Ice cream places can get super sticky or run down looking easily but it was super clean!“

“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!)“

“Best ice cream shop in Pittsburgh. Huge milkshakes for reasonable prices. They don't skimp on the ice cream. Their tornadoes are amazing - get them with extra toppings. The turtle sundae is also great; the caramel they use is so good. All their portions are massive and reasonably priced.“

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

“This was the best ice cream I have EVER had. Came here a few nights ago with my siblings and needless to say we were blown out of the water with how incredible this place was. The service was top tier, prices were fair for the portion size, and the ice cream itself was AMAZING. I believe it’s a limited flavor but we all got the strawberry scooter flavor and I could not recommend it enough. We literally went two nights in a row to get it. Hands down my new place to go whenever I am in the area!“

“best fruit parfait ever.“

“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!“

“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!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Delicious Desserts & Wonderful Service from Country Custard Cottage We ordered mini limoncello gobs and mini cannoli’s from Country Custard Cottage for my daughter’s bridal shower, and they were a huge hit! Everything was absolutely delicious—fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The limoncello gobs were light and refreshing, and the mini cannoli’s were the perfect bite-sized treat. What really stood out was the service. When I was deciding on desserts, they kindly offered me a sampler, which was such a thoughtful touch and helped make the decision easy. You can tell they care about both their product and their customers. I highly recommend Country Custard Cottage for any special occasion. Their desserts added the perfect sweet touch to our celebration!“

“the love i have for berry fresh frozen yogurt is unmeasurable. i have been coming here for years, and driving 45 minutes each time to get here. i bring every single person i meet here. berry fresh is literally the best frozen yogurt i have ever had. the original tart is to die for, no other place compares!!!! not to mention they have fresh fruit that is always ripe, and the owners are incredibly sweet and friendly!! the quality is always consistent, and i absolutely love coming here for a sweet treat“

“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!“

“I love this place. really great customer service, big selection of handmade and vegan ice cream and dog friendly. Prices are not cheap but worth every penny. AWESOME“

“The ice cream was great with big portions and lots of fun flavors. The service was fast and friendly. They've got it down to a science even on a busy night. And the mini golf was a fun way to wrap up the evening. It was a well maintained green and had a fun water hazard. We'll be back!“

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

“Good Italian ice!“

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

“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.“

“I've been here a couple times and the milkshake is always great. There must have been a New Girl working today. Because when I was drinking this thing, it kept giving me like little chunks of what maybe was Cocoa powder, it tastes terrible.“

“oh my God we love this place that's the best homemade ice cream shop in the Pittsburgh area y'all are running neck and neck with scoops and more but you're mainly my choice because you're close to my home and I've been telling all my friends and fellow ice cream lovers about you“

“The frozen yogurt was absolutely delicious (I got the strawberry) and the young man who waited on us was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back!“

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

“Great treats and friendly service during a bike ride! Thanks for the ice cream to keep me pedaling! 🚴“

“Very tasty ice cream and all kinds of flavored gelatos. All kinds of combination. The fruit flavors are very good true to the fruit flavor. I like peach which tends to be a soft flavor. and can easily taste fake. But not at Rita’s Same with the mango.“

“This place has the best cookies, gelato, and ice cream ever! My husband and I are from out of state and every time we visit Pittsburgh, Sam’s is the first place we go in the strip. The gentleman that runs it is named Dave and he’s so kind and friendly. Thank you Dave for the wonderful service and sweet treats! We will always return and are customers for life.“

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

“A Sweet Favorite at Bakery Square! 🍦
Just discovered Jeni’s Ice Cream at Bakery Square,Pittsburgh and I’m officially hooked! The moment you step inside, you’re greeted by the irresistible aroma of freshly made waffle cones—it’s pure magic. Their ice cream is incredibly creamy, with original, handcrafted flavors that are truly tantalizing to your taste buds. Every scoop is a flavor adventure, whether you lean classic or bold. Jeni’s is a must-visit treat spot for any ice cream lover in the area!“

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

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

“the ice cream is delicious but I've learned the hard way that you need to ask for extra extra stuff in your cyclone. just grabbed my first one of the year and it quite literally had 4 chunks of reeses cup in it...me and my 6 year old counted after my first like 10 bites were nothing but ice cream. so it was basically a big cup of chocolate ice cream which was disappointing. I'll remember to ask for plenty of extra next time. otherwise, delicious options!“

“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 ♥️“

“Absolutely the best shaved ice in South Park—and honestly, anywhere nearby!

Wu’s Shaved Ice is a gem that everyone needs to know about. The flavors are refreshing, and the ice is fine and fluffy, never chunky or watery. The portions are generous too!

The service is always warm and welcoming, and the whole vibe is friendly and fun—great for families, date nights, or just a quick treat on a hot day. They also have unique flavor combinations that you won’t find anywhere else!“

“We love getting Millie’s at the Market district and were thoroughly pleased to see they have a kiosk at Kennywood. The girl who served us was very nice, as was the supervisor we spoke to. I got my favorite mango sorbet in a waffle cone and it was A-MAZ-ING, on a such a hot day. Thanks Millie’s - keep up the good work.“

“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!“

“Me and my family live going to this location! They are always friendly and give us wonderful suggestions every visit. We never leave disappointed which is why we continue to return each year. Thank you to all the staff for the great service ❤️ ?“

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

“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.“

“Have been there several times while on the GAP. I love it. Good food good people and a welcome break“

“Great Staff & Cappuccino Blast“

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

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

“Nice to see Rita’s open! And the server was wearing a mask and gloves. Changed gloves between each customer. Great job!“

“Isaly’s is truly a Pittsburgh tradition. You can find their famous chipped chopped ham and signature BBQ sauce at your local Giant Eagle—perfect for making those classic ham BBQ sandwiches. And don’t forget to check out the ice cream aisle!

Isaly’s has been serving up timeless, delicious ice cream flavors for generations. When I think of Isaly’s, I think of nostalgia, heritage, and Pittsburgh pride. I love hearing my Pap’s stories about enjoying Isaly’s ice cream as a kid—so many great memories!

Isaly’s is more than just food—it’s a Pittsburgh staple and a taste of tradition“

“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 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.“

“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.“
