22 Best Ice Cream Shops in Appleton

“My husband and my favorite ice cream shop in town! We always go once a week! The ice cream and churros are delicious and the owner is always welcoming and kind. He works tirelessly for his community and always looks for ways to give back. I’m grateful to have Frio’s in our community here in Appleton! 🍦“

“They have so many options to choose from. I love the Tropical Sno drinks, there are so many flavors to choose from, if you don’t like their concoction you can mix your own. They also have Dole soft serve , Cedar Crest ice cream in a cone , dish or by the pint. You really have to go and check them out for yourself. Staff is super friendly as is the owner.“

“You know it’s a great treat when you drive 30 minutes for a cookie custard sandwich. Always get the brownie and a cookie with whichever flavor I’m craving. Sometimes I put marshmallow crème as my topping. Can’t wait til summer, we love enjoying one during the Thursday nights at Titletown.“

“Found this little hidden gem, such a cute place. Awesome atmosphere, good vibes from the employees. Beautiful hand made ice cream, good price & delicious. 😋“

“I stopped in at Baskin-Robbins and was lucky enough to be served by Laura, who scooped me a Pink Bubblegum with a smile that could brighten anyone’s day. Not only was the ice cream perfect, but Laura was outstanding—friendly, attentive, and genuinely enthusiastic about her job. She handled the line with ease, kept the space clean and welcoming, and made every customer feel important. You can tell she takes pride in what she does, and it shows. If you’re looking for great service with your scoop, ask for Laura—you won’t be disappointed!“

“48 flavors and they ALL looked good and their descriptions all sounded awesome! Reasonably priced, which is awesome, tasted great and will definitely be going back... gotta try em all! Great customer service!😋😁“

“We had ICE come to our school event and we couldn’t have been happier! Such great people to work with, easy and made the kids day!“

“My son and I get our treats here for the last few years. Always had a great experience and the staff does a good job getting our order. They can get busy, so we always go at off-times.“

“Not a recommendation... just want to say what a wonderfully decorated rooftop you have...kudos to you...just beautiful ...MERRY CHRISTMAS“

“My wife purchased a half gallon of Lamers milk. The flavor is excellent and I personally appreciate the glass bottle. We typically buy organic milk. However, with microplastics being more and more of an issue the move to reusable glass supercedes organic for me. Especially since the producers are at least not using growth hormones. If the farmers could move to at least pasture raised as much as possible would be nice.
Rockin the glass.“

“Best snickerdoodle cookie. The lucky charm cookie is also amazing. Staff is hit or miss. I have had great service and also seen an employee throw a box of cookies on the counter and mutter “go figure” before starting another order. She was definitely not happy to be at work that day. Overall, I have had mostly positive experiences and will be back.“

“The food was amazing. My wife and I had the chai teas and I had the chicken bacon ranch. It was superb! 10/10“

“today they were very streamed line. I think this the fastest I ever left culver's drive threw. from ordering, to pay to a spot waiting to getting the food. well done ( only bad part, our tarter sauce was spoiled. think it was under heat or something.) food was hot & fresh plus got it very fast. ty“

“Absolutely disgusting meal. Food had obviously been precooked and then reheated in microwave. Spent $24.00 on this meal. Only remedy was the manager, Justin, offered coupons. I have no use for coupons to a restaurant I'm not going to patronize again. We threw the food away because we were concerned about possibly getting food poisoning.“

“Went there tonight to get the free scoop. So many candies remind of the old dime store stuff that we’d bike ride everyday to get. Just need garbage pail kids and wax lips. But the ice cream is awesome and the Willy wonka bars have crazy awesome deals in them. Mine had $5 off at crazy sweet, 15% off at Joseph’s and bogo at Appleton beer factory. Gotta regular this place!“

“I haven't had an orange julius in forever. I stopped the other day and was suprised he asked if I wanted any vitamin C in it and I said no. Then I thought wait what? He told me what they do by just adding a scoop of vitamin C powder so I paid the extra $1 for it and he added it. I am a vitamin freak. What a great idea!!!“

“thanks for the Santa event, my grandson had an awesome time picking out gifts for the family!“

“We usually go to Uncle Mike’s for breakfast on Saturdays. But today arrived after breakfast ended and ordered lunch. We both ordered burgers prepared medium. One PBJ and one basic burger. Both burgers came well done, little to no jelly and aioli. Service is always good, food comes hot and on time. We will go and dine again but only for breakfast.“

“We had great chocolate shakes at Culver’s in Suamico, so decided to go again. Apparently, not all the employees are knowledgeable in how to make them. They should be made with vanilla custard, not chocolate. Ruined my evening since I do NOT like chocolate custard😔“

“I just stopped at the Westhill Road Appleton, WI location, only ordered a Tominator sandwich only, no Mayo, no onions, heavy pickles and Bravo! This burger was delicious, first time ever made with lots of pickles the way I like it. Normally when I ask for heavy pickles, I get three extra slices. This burger was awesome!“

“We visited for our first time yesterday. Food was fantastic however the dining room was disgusting. Everything was greasy and there was stuff all over the floor. I think we will be sticking to the drive-thru so we can at least eat great food in a clean place.“
