50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Burke

“Sweet Frog is a fun place for a sweet treat with a great selection of soft-serve flavors and plenty of topping options to customize your dessert. The quality and variety are good, but it can get a little pricey, especially if you’re building a larger cup. Overall, it’s a tasty option when you’re craving frozen yogurt and want lots of choices.“

“I keep forgetting CSC is there and need to be better about patronizing there. Its always a hit and always enjoy what we order. We were there for a friend's birthday after dinner treat and I ordered something off the menu 'Rocky Road' and it was perfect with mini marshmallows.

They are always friendly and the portions are big and generous. What a treasure to have in Burke.

Will definitely be back.“

“Yummy ice cream (try the blizzard) and great service!“

“This place is absolutely fantastic! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with genuine kindness and exceptional customer service. We had the pleasure of meeting the regional manager, who was warm, friendly, and truly wonderful. The entire team went above and beyond. They came from behind the counter to introduce themselves, took the time to engage with our children, and made us feel like valued guests instead of just customers. The desserts were absolutely scrumptious and unlike anything we've ever had. We were especially grateful that they offered delicious plant based options, which made the experience even better. This wasn't just a stop for dessert. It was an experience we'll always remember. We will definitely be back, and we hope they remember us because we certainly won't forget them. We highly recommend this place! Our three girls loved everything about this place 🩷🩷🩷. 7/23/2026 😊

Inside joke: Always a New Yorker!!!

I wanted to update my review because I felt it was important to recognize Mr. Joseph and Ms. Anita. They are two of the kindest, most pleasant people I have met in a long time. My family and I were truly grateful for their kindness, thoughtfulness, and genuine consideration of our dietary needs. They work incredibly well together, run the business with excellence, and create such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It was an absolute joy spending time with them, and they made our entire experience even more memorable. They are a true asset to this establishment, and we look forward to seeing them again. They are absolutely worth sitting in traffic for.“

“Scoops2u’s community support has brightened the lives of many people during the pandemic, including guests of St Matthews UMC grocery distribution guests in Annandale VA and just today in Alexandria at the Lincolnian Senior Residence with their providing delicious ice cream treats to those for whom an ice cream treat is a luxury when funds are limited. SCOOPS2U is THE BEST!! Thank you!!“

“The Ice and Custard are delicious. Wonderful selection of flavors. The store is always clean and the staff is friendly and welcoming. A great addition to our neighborhood shopping center.“

“My children and I had a great experience today. The owner gave us a tour of her store. My children were fascinated to learn more about what they love to eat 😋. All the staff at this store are great, friendly and make you feel happy in a warming place. Excellent service and very very clean place!! I hope other stores do this to make our children experience new things. Thank you so much to the owner, manager and the rest off the staff for your hard work everyday!! 🐸🍦🍨 😋“

“The gelato was absolutely delicious! The coconut flavor was especially amazing—rich, creamy, and full of flavor. What made the experience even better was the outstanding customer service. One of the staff members, whose name I unfortunately didn’t catch, went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. They were friendly, attentive, and truly embodied what great customer service should be. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be back!“

“BEST ice cream in the area, from truly pasture raised cows! I drive in from outside the Beltway to stock up on quarts.“

“Wonderful gluten free options and excellent coffee and smoothies !“

“I am honestly obsessed with matcha, and Kiyad Matcha in Alexandria is just amazing. Their matcha drinks and desserts are next level delicious! I just wish they had better seating arrangements for working like more café-style setups because if they did, I would honestly come here all the time.“

“Very fresh and delicious ice cream! My personal favorites are White Turtle & Caramel Apple Crunch. Get your ice cream in a waffle cone or bowl!“

“The ice cream shop has many great options inside the mall. I recommend downloading their app to benefit from rewards and special offers. The place is very clean, organized, and the staff are friendly. Great spot if you want a sweet treat while shopping.“

“Where to begin... got the chance to visit Paradise Ice Cream. Great and prompt curbside pickup service. OMG the ice cream cookies are so good but the strawberry cheesecake on sugar cookie is my favorite. I wish I had taken a picture prior but there is nothing left. Can't wait to go back to try more of their homemade ice cream flavors.“

“We went to get ube unfortunately they ran out, we tried the green tea instead. Good choice it’s delicious. I will come back for ube next time.“

“Erick from the Chantilly location did a fricken great job. Down to earth. Knowledgeable. Professional. The food was fresh and delicious. Very different than just a traditional ice cream joint. Thank you!!!“

“Though I've lived in Fairfax many years, I'd never stopped in here before. Apparently it's under new ownership, and it was great! My friends and I felt really welcomed, and the ice cream was tasty! They have all the classic flavors, plus some more exotic ones: my crew loved the Tutti Frutti and Gulab Jamun.“

“The Ice and Custard are delicious. Wonderful selection of flavors. The store is always clean and the staff is friendly and welcoming. A great addition to our neighborhood shopping center.“

“We went here to get some ice cream and omg they have the most delicious ice cream ever I love ice cream and their ice creams are the best and the people serving the ice cream were the sweetest people ever 🩷🫶🏻“

“Absolute hidden gem! If you're looking for an authentic spot to grab an amazing milk tea and satisfy your snack cravings, this is it. The boba is the perfect chewy texture, and the drinks aren't overly sweet—you can really taste the quality of the tea.“

“This location has some of the best customer service. Kristina is such a kind employee. Even when the store is busy, she will take the time to greet me and ask me about my day as I place my order. She is a primary reason why I enjoy this particular location and honestly why I’m leaving this review. Ice cream here is great too!“

“This place is unique and a delight to have in pentagon row! They have flavors I’ve never had anywhere before. The staff is friendly and the ice cream is made in house and it’s absolutely wonderful! Good excuse to take a walk to try every flavor! Yummy!!!“

“Ice cream jubilee just earned a loyal customer Me and my son came in this evening to have some wonderful ice cream and some great wonderful service deleesha I think that was her name seemed a little over worked because she had a long line of people, but she was wonderful and helped us decide our perfect flavors Will definitely be back soon and will be telling everybody about the location is a perfect location as well“

“The gelato I had was absolutely delicious! While it wasn't as creamy as Pitango's, I really enjoyed the variety of flavors they offered. I ordered a three-flavor cup and chose Black and White Cookie Batter, Dark Chocolate Fudge, and Dulce de Leche Chip. Each flavor was delightful! The restaurant was quite busy, which was a good sign considering its prime location near shopping stores and not far from Chinatown. There was plenty of seating available for customers to sit and savor their treats or coffee. Despite the crowd, the cashiers did an excellent job attending to everyone and even offered samples.“

“The ice cream is fantastic with a lot of interesting and newer options. The waiter is very nice and helpful. The atmosphere is very fun and colorful. The bathroom is big and clean. There's not much they could do to be better in any aspect. They could add a handicap button to the door but that's true of most places.“

“great Service good icecream“

“Tried the unicorn ice yesterday. Very tasty flavor. Hope it becomes a permanent flavor.“

“Delicious custard. We love the flavors and all the special treats. We also love how supportive this small business is of their local community. ❤️“

“Shay was so amazing, friendly, and attentive from the moment I walked in to the moment I checked out. I received incredible customer service from her as well as a great positive attitude! I will absolutely be coming back to this Crumbl because of Shay!!!!“

“Went tonight, met the owner at the door. I was very impress and can see why it's so popular. Servers were all very nice. Food was great and reasonably priced. Got the short rib which was excellent as were the pomme puree with it. Inside was very nice and had a good selection on the menu. Almost got the pasta but glad I did not. Think a lot of the entrees were in the 25-35 range though of course more expensive stuff. It was crowded but not very loud, which was good. Solid winner, and wishing the owner the best, he seems to know about this as well as Human Misery (his words).“

“Nice and clean! Delicious flavors of frozen yogurts and many options of toppings!“

“Fredeique should be the employee of the month she helped me and my friends out on the app cuz we had orders a 12 pcs online to pick up for my first time and she was the only that helped me out with the order and every time a customer would go in she would say “ welcome to crumble “ unlike the others“

“Wow. Haven’t been to a SweetFrog in years. Kids had a gift card so we came here after dinner. The place is very clean and the frozen yogurt was really good! The toppings bar was so clean and organized you’d swear they just opened. Highly recommended and will be coming back soon!“

“We visited Hamrock's for their 10-year anniversary dinner menu, and it was an amazing experience! Every dish was made with high-quality ingredients, the portions were generous, and the flavors were incredible. The wine paired perfectly with the meal and was just as impressive.

The atmosphere was cozy, relaxing, and perfect for a nice dinner. We especially loved the outdoor garden patio, it added such a charming touch to the experience. The staff was welcoming, and everything from start to finish was excellent. We'll definitely be back and highly recommend Hamrock's to anyone looking for a great meal in Fairfax!“

“Took the entire family to Freddy's to get for the July lunch and noticed it would make a great vantage point to come back at night to watch fireworks. So we had a great time they are there's great food for young people in older lake The kids loved it but the star of the show was coming back later last night to watch the fireworks being launched from Fairfax high School by Fairfax City for their annual fireworks display. The parade was rained out and we feared the fireworks would be as well but they weren't a place was packed the streets were packed every place was packed but if we're nothing else check Freddy's out for the most epic spot to watch fireworks from. Everybody had a spectacular time and don't forget they're frozen custard is legit 10 out of 10 will go again next year and many times to eat there before then.“

“always good service. friendly people on staff. helpful and smiling faces. open pretty late so it's our go to for date nights. good variety of flavors.“

“This was honestly the selling point for me going on a hiking walk! Such a smart idea to have an ice cream parlor at the park. Love the train in the parlor that mimics the train in the park. They have many ice cream flavors, but Superman was not the tasty Superman ice cream I know so I didn’t really enjoy that flavor.
There was a park behind the parlor which was cute for kids.
Go, enjoy!“

“Open till 11pm on Friday night. You might miss it cos it's the last establishment and kind of hidden behind the entrance to the movie theatre and parking garages. Their flavors are very unique. The cranberry goat cheese was so delicious!
They are pricey as I cream shops go but reasonable considering the location. They serve half scoops and it's around $8 for essentially 1 scoop (2 halves so you can taste more of those flavors is their excuse :-D). It is a must try in my book. They will validate your parking ticket for the garage so don't forget to give them your ticket.
They get my highest rating for being open after every other ice cream shop for miles is closed and for their very unique flavors. Service is also quick and friendly. I didn't see any limits on the number of samples you could try. Some places are getting picky about that of late.
The complex it is in seems to have some nice restaurants and bars and seems like a nice place to hangout and catch a movie even. So you could make an occasion out of a trip to this I cream shop that is more than just about ice cream.“

“love the desserts options..& the staff are as sweet as those sweet Gelatos 😋 ❤“

“We love Snocream now back at the Hawaiian bbq in same shopping center where the block was“

“Amazing flavors and quality with great customer service… all at reasonable prices!“
