50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Monroeville

“Yummy! While on our June summer road trip with our kids, we were in the mood for something sweet and decided to try out The Meadows for their famous custard. We were not disappointed! The building is very welcoming from the outside. All painted with ice cream cones and Adirondack chairs sitting around. In the front, you have tables where you can sit outside and enjoy the air. Inside you have tables and chairs in a brightly painted, cheerful room. There is also a life-size connect 4 game where the kids can play. My son and I enjoyed a game while eating our custard. It was a busy day, but the workers did great. They were very friendly. We all went for the original vanilla and we’re very impressed. I loved my waffle cone! It was a very hot day and these definitely hit the spot! Highly recommend! Good for kids! Boosters and high chairs available. *Wheelchair accessible entrance, seating, parking lot and restroom. Offers eat in, take out that you can get through the drive-through window or the walk up window and delivery. Credit and debit cards accepted.“

“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.“

“The blizzards are fantastic“

“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.“

“best fruit parfait ever.“

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

“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!“

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

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

“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.“

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

“Wonderful fresh ice cream and GREAT service.“

“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!“

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

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

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

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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 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!“

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

“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.“

“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“

“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.“

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

“Great Staff & Cappuccino Blast“

“HANDS DOWN BEST COOKIES ��“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“Food was INCREDIBLE. Sam and his daughter were so unbelievably nice and accommodating. I truly am blown away by the quality of ingredients and the complexity of each dish. The amount of food you're given for what you pay is maybe the best in the area. The vibe is colorful and chill. The only thing I'm disappointed in is waiting this long to try this place. Will definitely return.“

“What a wonderful surprise! This is a hidden gem! Delicious treat, high quality, very generous servings, reasonable price, huge selection, and wonderful friendly staff! We will return!“

“Great place great coffee and food“

“These were honestly, unexpectedly amazing. The place has both waffles and ice cream, as well as a few other items and different combinations of the two. I decided to get the Antwerp with Nutella ice cream.

It was just stellar. The waffles here are not the typical soggy grocery store ones. No, they are made in house and are liege waffles. So, more chewy and sugary with bits of crunch at the edges.

The ice cream is also so so good. Super creamy. A pretty nice amount of Nutella flavor (could always be stronger though). Just really good and a really fair portion. When the two are paired together, it’s just exquisite.“

“I ordered a bunch of chocolates for my charcuterie class and it was absolutely amazing! We even picked up some chocolate lollipops for our Mother’s Day Baskets and they were a huge hit!! So I went back and bought about $200 more worth of chocolates!“

“If I talk about something tasty or peaceful for myself, it means Cold Stone. Their ice cream is so good and so fresh! I’ve been a regular customer for 8 years now, and this is my favorite place. Yes, their prices are a bit higher compared to other stores, but the quality is also top-notch. I really like the ice cream from this store. Even all the employees are very nice.“

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

“I love this location. They have a super friendly staff, and a small crew which provides the opportunity to get to know their customers. Awesome location right by a ton of stores for a good day out. The staff go above and beyond to find something for everyone, and very clearly care about their work and the company.“

“A great place to go for incredible pizza and a killer banana split in the summertime! Their park supreme pizza is feverishly delicious. Their outdoor seating area is nice, even though the place is next to a relatively busy intersection, but if that's too much, you can always head over to the Frick Park playground areas across the street!“

“Excellent food and service at Fox Chapel location . My first time here busy Saturday crowd Gabby was a wonderful bar server actually excellent. I had Bruschetta salad which I highly recommend Over any other“

“Counter staff could be much friendlier. The lady checking out customers was VERY short tempered and impatient when my family and others were ordering. We were only giving our orders like normal, nothing slow about the order, so to be rushed and so rudely dealt with was un called for. Other people in line were commenting on how rude she was, so on a funnier note, we all were joining in on the eye rolls and head shakes.I normally only leave positive reviews for businesses, as I understand how difficult it is working with the public, but this lady was truly incorrigible.“

“The ice cream here just hits different! Go get some“

“The hospitality is excellent 🙌🏽“

“Needed a last minute birthday cake for my fiancé’s son and they went above and beyond for me!!“
