50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Farmers Branch

“I visited this place on a whim last summer. Now I have to explain to my Frisco friends why I left the PTA meeting when Sandra walked in with a carton of Blue Bell. I walked away, lost and longing for Paleteria San Marcos

Parking: So much parking“

“Fresh fruit every time! Strawberries are always very sweet and good prices“

“Great place to pick up an injured opossum. Got the baby, got a drink. 😎“

“I was very skeptical of ordering gelato from Cavier, especially with it being located 8 miles (17 minutes) away, but me and my husband were needing something sweet and I went ahead and placed an order for 2 small gelatos. This was our first time trying this place also. When the order first went through, it said it was gonna take about 30 mins to get here and then it changed to 42 minutes, so I was thinking... ”Great, it’s gonna get here all melted”. Luckily it ended up being delivered within 30 minutes but still it was a long time for it being gelato. We opened the bag and it was BEYOND my expectations. It was packed in a big styrofoam container ( I was thinking it was gonna be in a very small Paciugo like container). I opened the top of the styrofoam lid and then removed the nicely placed cover and unveiled the most delicious, STILL FROZEN, gelato. 😊 Can’t wait to order more in the future! Definitely worth it!“

“The Dolly Llama welcome to Ponte Vedra Outstanding treat for the family! Good Luck Wendy, Josh & family“

“I absolutely love the concept of Old School Ice Cream Shop! It perfectly blends nostalgia with delicious, high-quality treats. The vintage vibe creates a fun and welcoming atmosphere that takes you back to simpler times.

Their ice cream is top-notch—rich, creamy, and full of flavor. You can tell they put a lot of care into crafting each product, making every scoop a memorable experience. Whether you’re indulging in a classic favorite or trying something new, it’s clear that quality and customer satisfaction are their top priorities.

Highly recommend stopping by for a treat that’s as delightful as it is nostalgic!“

“I am a FOREVER patron of this amazing little shop! The owner is as sweet as the delicious ice cream and sorbet flavors she creates. I especially love that the ice cream is never overly sweet and the flavors are true to their description. It's honestly kind blowing! I can't recommend this small shop enough, you won't regret your visit there 🍦💕“

“My husband and I went to dinner with friends a few nights ago and we all decided that ice cream was needed for dessert. We Googled ice cream nearby and Handel's was suggested. We were immediately greeted as soon as we walked in by a super sweet little smiling blonde and a group of other smiling, friendly teens. These kids seemed happy and excited to be there and eager to serve. We all got AMAZING ice cream and service and will be Handel's regulars for sure. My main reason for this review is for the owner to know what an AMAZING group of kids you have working this store. You rarely see young kids these days that engage with people and can actually have conversations with adults. This was on 6/28/24 So thank you for such a delicious and fun treat!“

“This place is what dreams are made of! Seriously delicious! Our whole fam left happy and full for under $30.“

“Wow. The best gelato I’ve ever eaten. Perfect birthday dessert indulgence.“

“Great menu with amazing flavor. Must try.“

“some of the best ice cream I've ever had! tons of gluten free flavors!“

“Came here on a Saturday night for a small dessert after having dinner in the area. Parking was pretty hectic in the shopping plaza, but finally found a spot after driving around. Shop was also crowded, but line moves quickly.

Look for the self-service kiosks to the left when entering. People were waiting for their orders there, so was hard to see at first. Kiosks allows you to order and customize exactly how you want. You enter your name and they'll call it when ready.

Soft serve was pretty authentic to what you'd receive in Japan. Smooth and creamy, but not overly sweet. Good place to come for Japanese soft serve.“

“I have been buying the buttermilk berry cornbread such a unique flavor. It’s so good. I’m so addicted to it. I’ve never tasted such a grape flavor in ice cream ever.“

“Best gelato!!! Plus they make these pretty roses out of the gelato when you order a cone!“

“Nice lil' restaurant. Indian culture and Indian desert inspired ice cream. Conveniently located near our residence. Good ice cream. Small lil' venue. Two electric outlets on the corner. Kind workers. Thank you for this delightful service. May peace be upon your firm and your loved ones. Thank you.“

“Friendly staff, many choices of pops and toppings, yummy chocolate dipped shells, alcoholic and non-alcoholic pops available. Quick service, great patio. This pace is a gem.“

“I always come here and I always have the best experience fresh food fresh fries everything comes out on time ,always taste delicious but there’s small thing missing and that is a new soda machine. i’ve been coming here for years since I was a kid that’s the only thing it’s been missing that soda machine is so outdated. I wish they would get the new ones and this place would be amazing.“

“Very rich the desserts and fruit, very good quality and service !!! I loved the crepes [Original] Muy rico los postres y fruta , muy buena calidad y servicio !!!me encantaron las crepas“

“It is a small, nice, clean place. But I must say that it is a little more expensive than other places that sell the same products. Apparently their specialty is strawberries with cream because we ate there and everyone asked for strawberries with cream. I tried the strawberries with cream and they are very good but the nuts seem to be of very low quality or very old and that makes it take away from their signature dish. If you go, you should ask for them without nuts. Maybe we will come back to try some other different dishes.“

“Very good, fluffy and soft ice snowcones. So glad I live right down the street now 😎
I’ve only had original flavors, all of which have been delicious. I like to add cream to my cones, they swirl everything together and it’s amazing!“

“Ambient lighting and Adam was very welcoming.
The scents are aromatic.
Add the fresh made waffles to this sensory experience and you are ready to
Order.
The selections are overwhelming but free spoon testing makes it so fun.
The flavors are delicious and the waffle bowl makes a memorable presentation.
The non-fat chocolate was a hit.
The vanilla bean is a throwback memory taste.
The front patio with lattice roof is open air and comfortable.

Service, atmosphere, and ice cream make this a perfect place for dessert.

Whether it’s a snack or post dinner visit you will be satisfied.

For ice cream lovers it’s a must .

See you there!“

“Lick lick lick with some sucking through the straw. Impeccable service and the pickles come with the chocolate banana shake if you like. Limited offer, certain salt shakers not available at all counters. Bring USD fries are moist excellent and the ketchup really tops it off

Kid-friendliness: Love that laughter. Keep kids happy

Wheelchair accessibility: A bit uphill but once in the crew is helpful.“

“Milk cream is my go to it is the best tasting delight ever ever ever ahhhhhhhhhh thank you so much for opening.“

“The cutest shop ever! Mexican candy everywhere, paletas, and all the Mexican snacks you could come up with. It’s nice and clean, amazing customer service, novelas playing on the tv. It reminded me of my childhood. Definitely going back! Thank you!“

“I want to commend the staff for their hard work yesterday. The store was blazing hot but the young lady with the blonde hair was running orders back and forth dripping with sweat and the girl with the messed up knee was taking orders plus making the treats fast and efficiently. I will definitely be back.“

“I've been going here for years. I really like how it looks and the taste is even better.

Kid-friendliness: I went here when I was a child back when this was just a place with a table and a few snacks. The people were always nice to me 10/10 definitely recommend“

I give a five star to this young lady!!“

“This is the best Michoacan! I went to Grand Prairie and everything was pretty ugly! This very delicious one from Irving, everything has a lot of flavor and is super natural and fresh! Please come and enjoy the delicious snacks! And the treatment is not to be said! Mrs. Nancy even knows my order and my corn is always 100%!! Thanks for the nice deal“

“Andy's Frozen Custard offers a selection of shakes that is rich and creamy. Their classic vanilla custard is a simplicity done right—smooth, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. Even their strawberry shake worth mentioning, delivering a refreshing burst of fruity sweetness that complements the velvety texture of their custard. Whether you're craving a timeless treat or a flavorful shake, Andy's Frozen Custard is good short stop. They just have outdoor seating, it’s designed mainly as a drive through similar to Dutch Bros.“

“First time trying rice yogurt boba and decided to go with the classic: Purple Rice Yogurt.

The store is well decorated and cute. The owners are nice and friendly. The store is located around a central of other Asian stores, restaurants, and business. When I got my drink, it came in a cute little cup filled all the way to the top.

The drinks are a little on the pricer side and despite it being a small cup compared to regular boba shops, I found myself getting full on one cup alone (compared to a regular boba shop--one cup can be finished in 5 minutes and I'd crave more).

The drink was a little heavier compared to regular boba (because it is yogurt) and the yogurt was on the tartier side which I did not expect. The purple rice added a nice chewiness to the drink. I found myself having to chew in between sips to properly digest.

It's definitely unique if you are used to traditional boba milk tea albeit on the healthier side and if you can tolerate a little bit of tartiness.

I would come back and try their other items.

Edit: I tried another boba shop that sells purple rice yogurt and Yomie’s is definitely king! Yomie’s quality and quantity is definitely better. I can’t wait to come back and try another one of their items.“

“For me, I didn't know the yogurt place does birthday parties. They have a very nice play area for the kids and a room where parties can be had. My grand baby and his cousins had fun. The yogurt we very tasty as well. Oh, the young lady who was doing the party was awesome! I didn't catch her name but she was on her job and that I loved!“

“Decent burgers for decent prices. Taste ranks about the same as whataburger despite being cooked to order but has much faster drivethrough times. This location always seems to be packed so it's kind of a pain to visit but good overall.“

“Good food & GREAT people!! Say hi to Rudy which is the guy always making the food.

They always make me feel special here and I'll let you in on a secret. A large drink is like $0.75 in the mornings.

I walk out with breakfast and i spend less than $5 sometimes!

Parking: Tons of parking especially in the mornings!!“
