11 Best Ice Cream Shops in Cleveland

“I tried Whit’s for the first time today. Not only was it some of the best frozen custard I have ever had but the staff were great! They keep It nice and clean and where patient with me and my child. Absolutely recommend!“

“Do yourself a favor and go down here one time, you will love it. The street corn in a cup is so good and the mini pancakes are so freaking good!! My son tried some of the nachos also and it was delicious. They will adjust the spice level on anything for you which is nice. The staff is so friendly and helpful!! That street corn alone will have you coming back again!!“

“Perkits is the definition of what it means to be a successful small business in Cleveland. Delivering a great product with quality service is all you need. Growing up, Perkits was my favorite! I've seen other froyo and ice cream shops come and go, but Perkits remains. Perkits has the best frozen yogurt in Cleveland, perhaps due to the fact that they've been in the business well before frozen yogurt gained popularity. The owner is always there, and they give a discount to Lee students with an ID. My favorites are pineapple tart (just like Dole Whip) and chocolate snoblast with Heath. Their holiday/seasonal flavors are also great, like blue raspberry, candy apple sorbet, and pumpkin pie. The haven't had blue raspberry or candy apple in a while, so I hope the bring them back soon. There is also a rewards program that allows you to earn a free yogurt or discounts after receiving a certain number of stars!“

“Cookies were great but my large order was over an hour past pickup and wasn't boxed and ready for pickup when I arrived. Took a while to be greeted and employed barely mumbled a few words. I was the only one in the store besides 4 employees.“

“the best frozen yogurt ever.“

“Everytime we're in the area we stop by Baskin Robbins to get ice cream! They have the best shakes and they get to you pretty fast regardless if the line is wrapped around the store. Definitely recommend a stop if you're trying to get some good ice cream“

“This is my favorite place to eat I love it here“

“First time having brown sugar bobs tea and it was AMAZING!“

“Blaze at Scooter’s Coffee is a total rockstar! From the moment I pulled up, he greeted me with the kind of energy that makes your whole day better. Friendly, fast, and genuinely kind—he made my order perfectly and even added a little extra cheer that you don’t find just anywhere. You can tell he really cares about the customers and takes pride in his work. Scooter’s is lucky to have him, and honestly, the world needs more Blazes! Give that guy a raise and a trophy! 🙌☕️🔥“

“Just wow! My family of 6 arrived for a late night snack around 9pm. We walked into a very clean and quiet restaurant and were immediately greeted by a smiling face, Amanda. She quickly answered any and all questions we had, and playfully interacted with my tiny humans. We had no more than finished our order and our treats were already coming out. Infact, the last of our order arrived just as we finished paying. My tiniest human made a mess with his ice cream on the window and we tried our best to clean it up. We let Amanda know on our way out and apologized and she told us not to worry about it and she totally understood. My family has lived in Cleveland for a few years now and we hadn't gotten to DQ yet. I'm so glad we stopped by and can say we will be back quickly. The sweet treats hit the spot and the customer service was even sweeter.
*I would like to note the drive through was pretty active the whole time and others did come in after us. I'm not sure how many workers were there but the staff was efficient at filling orders quickly.“

“Let us consider the Sonic Drive-In of Cleveland, Tennessee.
Here, in this bastion of Americana, one finds a menu as extensive as the open road, offering a veritable abundance of fast-food delights that speak to the soul of the South. It is a place where the service is not merely great, but delivered with the warmth and familiarity of a neighbor's greeting.
On a day when the craving for a chili cheese coney became too insistent to ignore, Sonic presented itself as a beacon of satisfaction. The coney, a simple yet profound concoction, arrived swaddled in the embrace of a warm bun, the chili and cheese melding in a symphony of flavors that resonated with the deepest culinary desires. It was not just food; it was a remedy, a fulfillment of a longing that had been simmering beneath the surface.
To partake in Sonic's offerings is to engage in a ritual as old as the hills that cradle this town. It is to affirm one's place in the continuum of Southern tradition, where every bite is a verse in the ongoing poem of life.
In this review, one must conclude that the Sonic Drive-In of Cleveland, stands as a testament to the enduring charm of the South, where great service and wonderful food are not mere expectations, but promises fulfilled. It is a place where, even for a moment, one can find solace in the simple pleasure of a meal well served. Sonic, in its humble way, captures the spirit of the region, offering not just sustenance, but a taste of home.“
