37 Best Ice Cream Shops near Travelers Rest

“Pup sundae for Rocky’s first birthday!“

“Great pizza and salads and a fabulous gluten free crust!! We had the protein pizza, spicy Hawaiian, little pepperoni, all with regular crust and they were all delicious. We also ordered the BBQ chicken, antipasto, and margahrita all on gluten free crust. .yum!! Often you are charged extra for GF and it is a lame pre-made cauliflower crust that tastes like cardboard. Not at Sidewall! This is homemade and almost like a Detroit style...a little thicker crust with a crispy bottom...so good!

The salads are fabulous...highly recommend the one with butternut squash and kale, but liked them all.

Dietary restrictions: Really outstanding gluten-free pizza“

“These are the best treats ever! I love that each peice is detailed to perfection!“

“They have the best Strawberry ice cream! Great atmosphere! Super friendly staff!!“

“Super cute place! I wish they were all plastic jars or a choice for glass or plastic on the bigger ones. You can wash your jars out afterwards but they do get slippery because there’s no soap to use at the washing station. I ended up dropping the glass jar at home and broke it. It cost roughly $31 for my som and I to get some ice cream.“

“The best ice cream parlor, they offer a variety of flavors, it is neat, clean and I loved the attention of Karina and the wonderful lady, they deserve a raise. I will be back. I recommend it 100%“

“We went there on the birthday of my daughter and they noticed that we were the only customers so they offered us to put a cone in the original bowl. The ice cream was delicious as always and it is very satisfying to watch them make it.Overall 5 out of 5 stars.“

“Great customer service . My daughter and i both enjoyed it! Will definitely be back“

“We finally make it downtown to the most awesome, made on premises, candy, fudge and ice cream shop. So excited. It's literally 5:02 pm. Normal close time 10:00 pm. There is a sign on the door that they closed at 5:00 pm for an employee outing. Feeling beyond totally disappointed, we sit in the courtyard trying to get motivated to find something else to do on this beautiful day. Apparently we looked extremely sad as well, because in a few minutes an employee comes out with a Kilwins chocolate box and says she saw us looking sad and felt very bad we were so disappointed. Please take these chocolate dipped strawberries we had left over, and come back and see us soon. My goodness so many strawberries! Ripe and juicy and, of course, dipped in some of the best chocolate I've had in my life. So fortunate to have yet another great thing here, a delicious candy, fudge and ice cream shop!! Bonus - they are also kind and so very thoughtful! Thank you so much Kilwins Greenville!!!“

“We’ve been coming here since opening and have never had a bad experience. The ice cream is amazing, but even better, Sarah is incredible. She knows us all by name & has my daughter’s ice cream order memorized. It really gives the “small town feel” of a local ice cream shop with healthier, cleaner options. Our daughter is dairy free & has never been disappointed with the multiple dairy free options.“

“Best healthy breakfast shake.“

“Great for corporate events, weddings, schools, birthday parties and any special event“

“muy amable con los clientes muchas gracias“

“Great flavor, good customer service, but I was. Barged $5 for a rainbow shaved ice. I have ALWAYS PAID $3.50(same size). Sign says $3.50 too. This is nothing fancy, no fruit , only ice and flavor syrup. The specialties are $5ish. Bring exact change!!“

“Hamilton Shew is a perfect human being. He far exceeds the precedent of a regular ice cream shop employee. When I was down, he knew. He wiped the tears from my eyes with his marble slab TM apron and held me until all my woes floated away into a cotton candy shake. Cheers, Hamilton; may the rest of the world be like you.“

“We tried this place about 2 months ago for the 1st time . We now go about once a week . Me and my husband have never had Italian ice like this before we love it we always get a small because there portions are so big . My husband love the green apple I try a new flavor every time we go .I've liked them all other then the cherry one . The employees have always been friendly.“

“No one seem to know which cookies that had and which cookies they were out of. When should turn made the atmosphere tense with the other customers around me trying to get their order and substitutes. I was told that they didn't have the strawberry in the mini but the lady in front of me that was substituting told that they had strawberry which is what I was told they didn't have they did eventually fix mine and give me the strawberry but the person in front of me was still struggling to substitute when I left even though she had ordered online and come in before me. Over all they just need to communicate better with each other and actually check what cookies they have before until someone they don't have them“

“They even have a few Vegan choices! It’s delicious!!! Very helpful and friendly staff too.“

“Decadent doesn't even begin to cover it; always grabbing something before I leave the mall whenever I'm in the area.Wide selection, and the shakes are always top of the line. My personal favorite is the Midnight Cookies and Cream. Cheers. ?“

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

“Giving it 5 stars because cookies are always great here. Just wanted to write about my recent experience because it was pretty baffling. Went in to order a butter cake cookie… they were sold out, okay awesome, no prob. I turn around to leave and I see a fresh pan baked and the fella making the orders literally putting one in a box. I go to the register and ask about it being sold out and the cashier gives me this attitude and turns around, points at the board saying sold out and says “uh yeah.” I simply asked why he was making one then and she said “don’t know, we’re out.” That was wild, I was just tryna get a butter cake cookie.“

“Three of us spent $30. There are a lot of flavors. I got a twist but neither flavor was very flavorful. As others have noted, priced by the ounce. There were many options of toppings. Service was non-existent since it is self-serve, although you are asked for a tip still. Who am I tipping, myself? For the three of us it cost us $30. Lots of flavors but both of mine didn't have much flavor. As others said, they charge you per ounce. There were many options to put on top of snow (yogurt). There was no service at all because you do everything, although they still ask for a tip. Who am I tipping, myself?“

“Bruster’s on Pelham Road in Greenville SC is my absolute favorite spot for ice cream! The staff is always friendly and welcoming, making each visit enjoyable. My Goldendoodle can’t get enough of their Pup Cups, and I have to say their Double Chocolate Chunk is hands down the best ice cream I’ve ever had. With convenient hours and consistently fresh flavors, it’s the perfect stop whether I’m craving a sweet treat or grabbing something for my pup. Highly recommend!

Dietary restrictions: They have dairy free options!“

“My kids and I LOVE this place!“

“We are out there about 15 minutes before they close and the gentleman said that they are closing due to going home early and he does not speak any good English and told him that I’m gonna bring him about $100 worth of business but he seem to not understand what I was trying to tell him would not recommend visiting near closing hours.“

“Best dessert that we found to date!! Great food and customer service!!“

“Hey there, fellow ice cream lovers! I'm here to tell you about my experience at Cold Stone Creamery on Woodruff Road, where I took my family for a sweet treat last weekend. Let me tell you, it was a blast!First of all, the staff was super friendly and helpful. They greeted us with a smile and offered us samples of their delicious flavors. They also explained how their signature creations work: you choose your ice cream base, then add any mix-ins you want, and they blend it all together on a frozen stone. Sounds cool, right?Well, it gets cooler. You can also create your own custom creation, or choose from their ready-made options. They have something for everyone: classic, adventurous, fruity, nutty, chocolaty, you name it. They even have some seasonal specials, like pumpkin pie and peppermint bark. Yum!My wife went for the cake batter ice cream with brownies and fudge. My son picked the chocolate ice cream with Oreos and M&M's. My daughter chose the strawberry ice cream with gummy bears and sprinkles. And I, being the dad joke master that I am, ordered the vanilla ice cream with bacon and maple syrup. Hey, don't knock it till you try it!We watched in awe as they prepared our creations, chopping, mixing, and scooping with skill and flair. They even sang a little song when we tipped them. How fun is that?We took our ice cream to a table and dug in. Wow, was it good! The ice cream was rich and creamy, the mix-ins were fresh and tasty, and the portions were generous. We all enjoyed our choices, even mine. Trust me, bacon and ice cream go together like peanut butter and jelly. Don't believe me? Ask my wife, she stole a bite!We had a great time at Cold Stone Creamery, and we'll definitely be back. It's a perfect place to go with your family, friends, or even by yourself. You'll find something you love, and have a lot of fun along the way. So, what are you waiting for? Go to Cold Stone Creamery on Woodruff Road today, and tell them that DAD sent you!“

“We visited at 4:30pm on Thursday, Sept. 26th. This was the first time I haven't seen employees on their phones or eating at a table. (No hate, just an observation). One particular employee with blonde and colored hair was actively cleaning.. I looked around and was shocked at how much cleaner it is now, so I had to tell them. In the past, I've thought about going elsewhere because the tables and highchair were literally caked in spillage. But now... dang, they need to keep that employee!! I didn't ask their pronouns, but a total gem!! Wish I had caught their name before they left at 4:45. :(“

“I stopped at Culver’s on the way home Thursday 2/22/2024. Thankful for the team of young people that provided friendly service and a delicious snack! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Have a great weekend!“

“The lead baker here is incredible!! I’ve given her some pretty ridiculous requests, and she’s comes through each time!! Love it so much.“

“I ordered lunch carry out on 2/29/24 and I have to give the cook and the service a 10 star rating. My food was cook to perfection and hot and ready when I got there.“

“Amazing coffee and service! Cozy comfortable coffee shop! I’m absolutely in love!“

“The food, frozen custard, and the service is amazing! It is nice to know that there is still a friendly good place to eat at now days! I can't wait to go back!!!!!“

“had a blast at this stop for a free cone thanks Dairy Queen“

“They have plenty of cookies and ice cream, as well as brownies. If you are on a calorie diet then this is not the place for you. But if you don’t care about your calorie intake then you came to the right place! The service was friendly and pretty quick! The cookie variety if vast and delicious, they have a lot of different flavors and ways you can eat it. Would definitely recommend trying this place if you get the chance to go there.“
