26 Best Ice Cream Shops near Sullivans Island

“Tried the watermelon lime & coconut sorbet & pistachio gelato. All were very flavorful & the farthest thing from artificial tasting. The watermelon tasted exactly like the real thing. You can tell they get their ingredients locally sourced!“

“Stopped for a sweet treat before leaving the island. My sister had to do a u-turn and it was worth trying this ice cream spot for the 1st time. The ice cream was DELICIOUS on the fresh homemade waffle cone. A must TRY!“

“The best empanadas, ice cream and customer service!! We love the beef and ham/cheese flavors.“

“Best ice cream I’ve had in a very long time. Going to be hard to top but we try new places wherever we go! Cookie dough and cookies and cream were awesome!“

“A must visit food truck at folly. The giant pineapple gave me mild stomach pain from having too much pineapple. 10/10 will be going again and getting a slightly smaller serving

Parking: Paid Parking lots are all around town not too far from the hut if you cant find street parking.“

“Had to wait in a short line, but the owner let us know right away. I loved the transparency. It was a cool spot to hangout in and watch the nitrogen ice cream being made right in front of our eyes. The ice cream was to die for! I can’t wait to come back!“

“Their ice cream is the best!“

“My first time trying this ice cream place ever. I usually only like a little bit of ice cream so I love the 2 scoop option, any more makes me feel a bit sick. The staff was super friendly and asks us if we would like to sample which I loved. I ended up getting the first one I sampled (rainbow) and so did my fiancé because the ice cream is just that good! It’s really wild because we weren’t planning to even go to this location we just saw it. I will definitely be going back here the flavor is just out of this world.“

“First visit today and definitely won't be the last. I had the "But First Coffee " and my husband had the "You've Gotta Be Pudding Me"......PERFECT!!! If you are one the fence about going....GO! The shakes look exactly like pictured. We all know how many times you see something pictured on a restuarants Facebook page, you go there, and its different. Not here! The shakes are thick and piled high with delicious toppings. Stellar and definitely worth the trip from Summerville.“

“Amazing Italian Ice and good people! Thanks for helping us out on Adventure Day for Safe Haven & Educational Adventures!“

“Me and my family loved it I wish we lived closer to go more often but we was on vacation seeing family , service was great I’d definitely recommend going if you’ve never been“

“Thank you for that awesome Good Friday and Resurrection interactive story time for the kids. He is Risen. Happy Easter. ✝️“

“Had an Amazing time DJing for this fine establishment. True class touches everyone as you enter the doors and it’s a must see. Bring your peeps to this spot. Definitely worth a visit.“

“Fantastic! I’m there three times a week. The dogs like the pup cups too!“

“Amazingly creamy ice cream and gluten free waffle cones! Will definitely return on my next trip to Charleston.“

“Best, freshest, most flavorful ice cream I’ve ever had! I got a custom banana split and chose 3 flavors of my own. I chose blue monster, brownie s’mores, and birthday cake. All 10/10 but brownie s’mores was definitely the best. Can’t forget the delicious fresh homemade whipped cream. The sundae was huge so I was unable to finish it but absolutely amazing! 10/10 recommend this place!“

“I had walked by Peace Pie multiple times a day during our stay in Charleston and the photos of their ice cream sandwiches looked so enticing especially because it’s been so hot outside. I decided on the blueberry crumble. I didn’t realize it was going to be a pre-made solid sandwich. The vanilla ice cream was good. The blueberry part was not very flavorful and didn’t really add to the pie flavor. I was also disappointed that the ice cream didn’t go all the way to the cookie part. And because it was so hot - the ice cream was dripping down the edges but the middle was still super solid and hard to eat. For $8 I wasn’t overly impressed but maybe another flavor would have been better.“

“My husband was wanting an ice cream cake from DQ but there aren't any here. We went with a Cookie Explosion Cake on the reccomendation of the workers and he really liked it. Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because he said he likes DQ ice cream cakes better.“

“I stopped by this place on a whim- saw the sign while driving and made a spontaneous decision to turn in. IM SO GLAD I DID. Blake was WONDERFUL. He was very kind and patient- he offered to give me a small sample of every flavor and I was blown away! It's not often you see someone in the service industry take time out of their day to be so kind.This ice cream is incredible- the flavors are bright with a hint of alcohol, perfectly balanced.Thank you for your time today Blake- I will be a lifelong customer. Currently going to lowes foods to buy every pint!“

“What can I say about Kilwins! The ice cream is rich, creamy, and absolutely delicious. I love the Salted Caramel ice cream and my wife loves the amazing house-made fudge! The staff is incredibly friendly and offered samples! We Highly recommend!“

“This is the best place to get ice cream in Mount Pleasant. Huge selection of flavors, AMAZING customer service, fast drive-thru, and even have dairy free and low sugar options. I was even able to get ice cream for my puppy. We will be back!“

“One of THE best gelatos you will ever have!! Will visit again“

“Title says it all. This is the best place for centrally locating your self into the heart of Charleston. We did three days of walking through the city and seeing all the things there was too see. The amenities far surpassed our expectations, the rooms were bigger than I thought they be, the bathroom was immaculate. I could go on really for paragraphs but I've never had a hotel experience better than this and I've traveled for 25 years.“

“Stopped by Waflin for a quick dessert and was blown away! Their menu of waffle and ice cream treats is impressive, and the hazelnut waffle I tried was pure perfection—warm, crispy waffle paired with creamy, cold ice cream. The presentation was top-notch, like a little edible masterpiece. Got a chance to chat with the team, and their pride in their Turkish roots and craft really shines through. Absolutely recommend!“

“This was my first time at this location (I usually go to downtown CHS) and I was not disappointed at all. Ice cream was great, got a bowl of wild berry lavender & buttercream birthday cake (my go-to) and it was superb. Service was great as well. I will definitely return!“

“Great service, great people, and great hotdogs!!! We need one in Columbia, SC!!!“
