31 Best Ice Cream Shops near Riverside

“the ice cream is great, cake batter is my favorite. the ONLY reason I wouldn't recommend this place is the del's. I know it's a creamery but they serve del's so it should be good. right? 4 out of 5 times i've gotten watermelon del's there it just tastes like ice. so disappointing. I keep going back because I want to give them another chance. been going there for years. I just wish they would tell us they're out if they're having issues with the machine or something. maybe it's the employees just not making it right. and then it's a pain to complain and get something else or a refund because then you have to stand in line again. 😔“

“Cereal milk has been my jam since I was a little kid. Cereal milk ice cream….a brilliant dose of tasty deliciousness. The service is excellent! This will definitely be on my must do list when I return for campus visits. Keep up the good work! Don’t change a thing.“

“Holy mackerel was this place good. I've been trying to get here for some time now on the recommendation of a friend, now I know why! the staff was great and the food was excellent it's adorable inside as well. for such a tight area the parking was still pretty good. Will definitely come back many times.“

“just left Papas ice cream. got 4 pints for a party at our house tomorrow. I had great service, especially from who I believe was the owner (young 30sish and bald). he was super friendly and gave me a free cup of sherbert that was almost done, and a pup cup for my dog. 100% going back, super friendly people!“

“This is a great little Latin and Japanese fusion ice cream shop. The fish shaped cones with a treat at the bottom are delicious on their own.

The decor is just fabulous, ample seating with shades so that you can soak up the sun without getting a sunburn. Truly an atmosphere suitable for anyone! I visit 3-4 times a week, I just can’t get enough. I love to relax after work or on the weekends.

“Stopped in for the first time and thought it was a super cute laidback atmosphere! We decided to get a root beer float and a strawberry shake! Both were delicious! Our server Nasirah was fantastic, fun and informative! Overall I would highly recommend stopping by for a shake, float or to peruse the isles!“

“Hilltop is a staple in EG. Frozen yogurt, soft serve, dole whip and hard ice cream. Locally owned and locally sourced. Hilltop is back in the family of the original founders. If you had a bad experience in the past, I highly recommend to give the new hilltop another shot. ❤️ You’ll be greeted with a smile by either me and my family or one of our hand picked employees. We take pride in quality ice cream and quality service. My Mama and I have been doing anything and everything to bring back what people love.“

“I love this ice cream place! I've been going here since I was a little kid when it was owned by two old guys and I love how they kept the original sign. Also you can't beat the prices! For $9 you can choose from 4 different sundaes and they are huge especially for only $9. Trust me you won't be disappointed.“

“Brought my 2 little ones to get ice cream. The staff were so great and patient with them being so undecisive, as kids usually are. My 6 year old said it was the best milk shake (smores with chocolate drizzle and whipped cream) he's ever had!“

“Lens Ice Cream has been a staple at the City of Pawtucket's employee appreciation BBQ for the past three years, and they never fail to impress. Their exceptional customer service, delectable ice cream, and array of delicious toppings make them a hit with our employees every time. We can't wait to have them back at next year's event. Lens Ice Cream truly knows how to elevate any gathering with their tasty treats.“

“It was great we really enjoyed it. We got a lot for our money. We came down from Cape Cod so we don’t have one of these there so it was really appreciative and we enjoyed it and it was nice and clean and the cash. It was so friendly.“

“Update: Highly impressed by quick owner response! And very glad to hear that it’s not completely closed even though for sale! We must just not pass it at the right times. Will have to stop by on a day other than Mon/Tues. Haven’t eaten there yet but I love Hershey ice cream so I’m sure it’s great. And it’s location is great, too!

Thank you for your response. It’s amazing you have served the area for so long! Life is crazy busy so I’m sure no one blames you for selling! Have a great summer!

Original Post:
This place is for sale and that doesn’t mean it’s closed down necessarily but we live right near here and it’s never open during open hours anymore so I’m assuming it’s closed at least for now. Wouldn’t have star rated it for this but have to. Just so people don’t make a trip. Current as of 8/4/24“

“Best coffee in town with very friendly and knowledgeable owners. You will not be disappointed. New to Providence or just visiting, enjoy a cup of coffee and get great suggestions on what to see and do. They are supporters of local artisans for all your souvenir needs. Can’t say enough good things about this place. ❤️“
