50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Swissvale

“Reggae creates impeccable vibes. Awesome ice cream treats - all sorts of unique ideas. Chocolate covered strawberry swirl. Chili cheese hot dogs are made with love. Be patient with the line and enjoy the experience.“

“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!)“

“Who knew that we had a Penn State Creamery Ice Cream so close to home?!?! The serving sizes are humongous! Emily and he owner, Randy, were both very kind and helpful. The ice cream was delicious. We love in the North Hills of Pittsburgh, but we will definitely be back!“

“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!“

“worth it?“

“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!“

“The kids loved it! Nice local shop.“

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

“Grew up getting snow cones here with my family. Revisiting it after 20 years and its still as good as i remember from my childhood. They bring in the large blocks of ice and shave the ice on the spot, very old school and nostalgic. Worth a stop for a sweet treat if you are in the area!“

“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“

“I love Rita's. Great ice and custard. If you don't treat yourself to a Rita's every summer you're missing out. It's the best.“

“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“

“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!“

“Every experience is fantastic! They have the best Rita's Italian Ice around. I absolutely love what they have done at the whiteoak location. Between new lighting and the gorgeous flowers all around its such a great atmosphere. The lavender smells great and the flowers are gorgeous. Plus the staff are amazing“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“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!!!!“

“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.“

“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“

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

“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!“

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

“Good Italian ice!“

“New to the area and have seen all these ice cream shops pop up so we decided to stop and try Renzie's. My kids are in love with the flavors here and I'm so happy that they serve Nathan's. The (what can I only assume to be as the) owner was very kind and personable.
The shop is across from a beautiful park and has outdoor seating. It very lovely and I would highly recommend giving it a try!“

“This was delightful and we can’t wait to return. Reminded me of my grandparents walk up ice cream stand, so definitely felt nostalgic. But still, all three of us got ice cream, two soft serve and one hard dip, and each was good. Just a wonderfully quaint neighborhood spot with solid offerings and reasonable prices. There’s some space on the side of the building to stand/sit and enjoy your treats.“

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

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

“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 had a great time at my nephews graduation party. The high light was your ice cream stand!! We all loved it.“

“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.“

“Great flavors and options. Large scoop size!“

“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.“

“I went there with my son and my bf today, the prices were so reasonable and Laura was so helpful and kind!! We stayed for a few hours while our clothes were in the laundromat across the street, she made us feel welcomed the whole time!! I had the Graveyard Dirt and it was delicious! Great flavors, great employee!!🖤“

“Great Staff & Cappuccino Blast“

“Woo Hoo Awesome service.. great atmosphere ..Amazing Food.. I Always have a great time when I'm there..plenty of parking!!!!“

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

“Love the custard. The black raspberry custard is my favorite!!“

“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.“

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

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

“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“
