12 Best Ice Cream Shops in Charlottesville

“It's like stepping back in time the moment you walk through the door... 50s/60s vibes, excellent ice-cream and milkshakes. Booths and barstools available for seating. Great place to cool off and have a cool treat

Kid-friendliness: Bathrooms and seating available, and the ice cream helps too“

“Delicious! Soo many unique flavors to choose from.“

“I could not believe how expensive this place is. I know prices have gone up but this was ridiculous. The portions they give are very very small. Like using an extra small ice cream scoop. Would not recommend this place. It's a rip-off. The prices to get a waffle cone or one dipped in chocolate with sprinkles was half the price of ice cream. The amount of ice cream they give you would not fill up a waffle cone even with two scoops. My granddaughter went for a waffle cone with two scoops of ice cream and she ate half the cone before she got to the ice cream.“

“This store is so clean. I love their cookies. The cookies are beautiful. The only reason I didn’t put five stars is because they are about 15 minutes away from my house and I specifically went to get cheesecake without knowing that the cookies change every week. I tend to fall in love with particular treats and if it leaves me, I will be sad. Don’t get my taste buds ready for something new every time y’all are too far away for that. But I guess the app can help me now I can see what they have and don’t have. It’s not even their fault my knowledge based on their Company wasn’t Up to par. But I know for next time because there’s definitely gonna be a next time“

“First off, solid frozen custard. The chocolate and vanilla were great. I personally wasn't a fan of the orange dreamsicle but the kids loved it. Service was ok. Just don't go in looking to take much home, largest container is about the equivalent of a small to medium size fountain drink.“

“Such nice people and delicious ice cream and milkshakes with an awesome selection.“

“A wonderful place to get a sweet treat. Plenty of dairy and gluten free options, and the owner, PK, is always very careful when I mention my food allergies. There are classic gelato flavors to choose from that sit alongside unique and really creative flavors for those who like to try new things! We also ordered custom gluten free & dairy free cupcakes for our baby shower that were absolutely delicious and worth every penny. Splendora's is a family favorite of ours. Definitely a small business to support!“

“The ice cream here is really good. With the mixins and the good ice cream, it is delicious. You can make your own or get a preselected flavor. The staff are friendly, service is quick, as long as the person in front of you isn't ordering 18 ice creams for her entire giant family party like a Karen, and there are a couple tables inside you can sit at to eat. This place is awesome. Would recommend.“

“Great little spot inside a large establishment that houses many small food stores and a bar. The ice cream was great, really creamy, and a decent price. Waffle cone tasted very fresh. We walked around and there was a diverse selection of food and drink. Parking outside and the first hour is free. Would go again!“

“Went to get ice cream the other weekend, the girl working on a rainy afternoon was very kind and gave solid opinions on the flavors. The toasted coconut ice cream was to die for! A bit pricy but the flavors are certainly worth it. I’d definitely return!“

“Cookies were delicious and my delivery person Carmen was WONDERFUL! She literally saved me from having to chase my dog around the neighborhood in 95° temperatures 95° temperatures as she got out and Carmen had ninja reflexes and caught her for me!!!!! Carmen gets a 20 out of 10 rating from me!!!! ❣️🐾🐶“

“😀 very good. thanks very much“
