50 Best Ice Cream Shops near The Colony

“Was very thankful that I believe the manager Dylan was very patient and accommodating that was made on my order. Through the chaos of working with unprofessional teenagers (which is expected) he kept his composure and was very helpful with fixing my order. I have gone here for years and this is my first time leaving a review specifically for Dylan’s customer service. Thank you“

“The ambiance is delightful, and the selection of ice cream flavors is impressive. I highly recommend visiting this place for a great experience!“

“Amazing milkshakes and ice cream! We love this place!“

“Loved that they had my favorite childhood ice cream flavors Superman and Bluemoon. However, I DID NOT like that no one had on gloves scooping or serving ice cream. Please Mgmt get your employees some gloves especially when handling food…that should be a MUST.“

“Great food and always great service. Thanks to Natalia for taking care of us today. Great job!“

Thank you EMILY for brightening my day & talking with me! ⭐✨“

“amazing ice cream that always changes,the owner Is very friendly and they have dairy free options! Definitely will be making this place a regular destination“

“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!“

“Great menu with amazing flavor. Must try.“

“Excellent best icream ever back again“

“Love this pop shop!! My fave of all time for 7 years is pecan praline“

“🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 ICE CREAM. recommend the FRIED Ice Cream“

“Definitely worth the drive. You will start having random cravings when they’re not open. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Our favorite ice cream spot in Little Elm! They always have such fun, unique flavors, and the shop is super clean and cute. The staff is so friendly, and they have awesome dairy-free options that my husband loves. We keep coming back for a reason!“

“Staff is very friendly, and they’re always in stock with my favorite ice cream flavors!“

“I recommend the Ube. The prettiest and tastiest soft serve I've ever had! 🍦😋 Definitely going back!“

“Banana split is my go to order and it's sufficient for 3 to 4 people at such an affordable rate. You would rarely go wrong with their ice cream flavors. Everything is always so fresh. Needless to say they have earned their name. Their dairy section is equally good too. They keep some good Ice creams tubs and delicacies“

“This place is awesome. we had the Dowich and also the Belgian waffle. Definitely 5 stars“

“First time trying this place, we had a vanilla latte and milk ramasalai cake. Both were really good and the staff was friendly. I love the decor, the only issue is the harsh LED lighting. Wow. I imagine being here at night 😬. Overall, I like it and will be back, just during the day.“

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

“Check this place out!!!! The owner is by far the best ice cream man I've had the pleasure of buying ice cream from. He is clearly enthusiastic about his work. He gave us all the free samples we'd accept and was super friendly and kind. I will absolutely keep coming back whenever I am in Lewisville. The guy is an absolute legend.“

“It was a well deserved stop... the salads although are premade... hit the spot with that grilled chicken and cold soda on a 91* evening... the ice cream is always heaven sent of really hot days... just be sure to sit a spell or you will be wearing the melting parts...“

“Amazing flavor, super fresh, made right in front of you! The kids loved it! I wish we had one where we live. 💕“

“Excellent food and help! We will definitely be back often.“

“We had an amazing experience at Bollywood Pizza! From the moment we walked in, the staff was welcoming and friendly. The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and made with great quality ingredients. Every bite was full of authentic taste, and the menu has something for everyone.

The atmosphere is clean, comfortable, and perfect for enjoying a meal with family and friends. The service was quick, and everyone made us feel valued as customers.

If you're looking for delicious Indian-style pizza and flavorful food, I highly recommend Bollywood Pizza. We'll definitely be coming back again. Thank you for the wonderful food and excellent service!“

“the ice cream was very delicious!!“

“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.“

“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.“

“Just had the most amazing gelato experience at I Scream Gelato in Plano! The flavors are rich and authentic, with a great variety to choose from. Whether you’re into classics like chocolate or adventurous options like pistachio or tiramisu, there’s something for everyone. The staff is super friendly, and the atmosphere is cozy — perfect for a quick treat or relaxing with friends. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area!“

“OKAY. I am a feen for frozen yogurt and I’ve tried so many different frozen yogurt shops to find one that is worth going to over and over again…and this place is IT! Firstly, it’s family owned which I love & their flavors are impeccable. Delectable assortment of fresh flavors (both tart and creamy options) and an array of toppings. Love this place!! My new go to for frozen yogurt!“

“Until I tried The Gelato Cone, I felt like I had never truly eaten ice cream before. This is what real flavor tastes like!“

“Everything was great. Bakery was awesome“

“Glad to found this new gelato place! There are different types of flavors and best gelato with Asian flavors and Western flavors. As usual, love to taste 1st before the picture 🤣. If you already tried Europe/ Italy gelato when traveling there before, then should checking out this place. 👍“

“Tried the 24-K latte at Desert Avenue and it was not only stunning but delicious ✨ Served on a beautiful gold tray—it honestly felt like Dubai vibes. Paired it with an almond croissant, which was perfectly flaky and delicious. Highly recommend the lavender ice cream too—so unique and refreshing! They offer a great variety of desserts and drinks, and I truly loved everything I tried. Such a great spot to sit back, relax, and enjoy the atmosphere—I’ll definitely be returning!“

“My grandson is a Crumbl lover, he ordered a bunch of stuff and one item was not included in his order.. with some back and forth with door dash(im so not a fan) and the bakery, they made it right and he got to enjoy his Dubai chocolate strawberry cup and he loved it. They were kind and helpful (he was making the calls himself to get it worked out, and they took care of it. For that alone they get 5 stars for great customer CARE. Park location Dallas specifically. ❤“

“friendly workers and tasty vegan burgers 🍔!“

“It's good, definitely overpriced as you're paying for the address. Is it as good as gelato in Italy, nope. Don't get me wrong, it's good. Just not that good. The ordering process begins at an automated kiosk, then you finish ordering at counter. It confused some people.“

“Had a fantastic meal at Rico's. The tacos were fresh, flavorful, and packed with authentic Mexican taste, and the paletas were the perfect sweet treat to finish the meal. Everything was made with quality ingredients and served with care. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout our visit. Great food, excellent value, and a fun atmosphere.“

“Finally went for the first time and my wife and I were not disappointed. The donuts were amazing. Will absolutely be going back.“

“Excelente servicio, todo muy delicioso, super recomendado!!“

“Hands down, the BEST customer service and the BEST jelati/Italian ice I’ve ever had! 🍧

Kayden and Lola at Jeremiah’s Water Ice are absolutely amazing. Every time I come through the drive-thru for my cheesecake/strawberry layered with graham cracker add in, they’re friendly, upbeat, and make the whole experience so enjoyable. You can tell they really care about customers and take pride in what they do.

This has become my weekly sweet treat, and it never disappoints! The flavors are always spot-on, fresh, and delicious. Between the incredible treats and the top-tier service from Kayden and Lola & all their staff, I always leave with a smile.

Thank you both for making my visits so special every time! 💛“

“Wonderful experience at this braums location. The employees were very nice, the food service time was very fast plus great quality produce. Overall a very pleasant experience as I have been coming to eat here for at least 4 years.I definitely recommend“

“Employees need to be trained on being faster“

“Lure Ball Bites

Stepping into Crumbl felt like hitting a high-value PokéStop, quick in, quick out, with no seating but clean conditions and friendly staff ready to help. The weekly Blueberry Muffin cookie and the accidental Snickers Peanut Butter cookie (I had ordered a Snickerdoodle cookie) both landed strong Special Attack, delivering soft textures and rich sweetness that hit exactly where it counts. It felt like a Fairy Wind hit my taste buds back to back. The Snickers combo played like a powerful Dark/Chocolate-type move with buttery cream support, while the Blueberry Muffin offered a smoother, balanced hit with its streusel and glaze. Even the mix-up turned into a lucky encounter rather than a misplay. If you’ve got a sweet tooth, this is a guaranteed catch that’ll have you coming back to try the next rotation.“

“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.“

“Always one of our favorite places!“

“I recently hosted my child's 4th birthday party at Monster Yogurt, and it was an absolute blast! From start to finish, everything was perfect. Kimberly, our party hostess, was simply amazing. She was so friendly, attentive, and took care of every detail to ensure the day went smoothly. Her energy and enthusiasm made the experience so enjoyable for both the kids and adults. She even went as far to take pictures of my child enjoying his special day and made sure they were sent to me! The customer service was top-notch, with every staff member going above and beyond to make sure our group was taken care of. The store itself was spotless and well-maintained, and the play area was perfect for all the kids to have fun and let loose. It kept them entertained for hours, and it was such a relief knowing they were in a safe and clean environment. As for the frozen yogurt, it was incredible! There were so many yogurt flavors to choose from, and the topping selections seemed endless! Everyone was able to customize their perfect treat, and it was a hit with all the guests. Another very important piece to this was my child has severe food allergies to dairy and egg. Despite having dietary limitations, he was able to have plenty of delicious options to choose from including a dairy free chocolate sorbet! This made my mama heart so happy and his belly so full! If you're looking for a fun, stress-free, and memorable place to host your child's birthday party, I highly recommend Monster Yogurt. From the service to the venue, it was an unforgettable experience! Thank you so much Kimberly and Ava! We appreciate you so much and will continue to be Monster Yogurt fans!“
