31 Best Ice Cream Shops in Virginia Beach

“This place is dope! DELICIOUS. Easily my new obsession. The staff was friendly, helpful and efficient- despite the small space they did a great job of moving everyone through with a smile. I hope they thrive for years to come!“

“Yum! Could not pick one flavor so went with the flight and had four to share with my hubby. They were all very good but their butter pecan and peach cobbler are to die for. And I would never pick butter pecan. But my hubby did and I had to restrain myself.“

“We had my son’s birthday party at the Town Center location and it was awesome!! It was easy, fun and the gelato was delicious!“

“First time here and OH MY HEAVENLY GOODNESS! If you're in the area it's a must to stop.“

“These cookies are sure to cure your late night sweet tooth. I have to drive past this place every night I leave work, it’s very hard not to stop and get a cookie the size of my face! Everything is perfect about these cookies, ? the flavors rotate so there’s always something new to try, they are probably 1200 calories each, and absolutely delectably delicious from the taste to the texture!“

“Probably my favorite ice cream spot at the beach. Have had so many flavors here but tried the birthday cake last night and it was so DELICIOUS I had to leave this review for the birthday cake ice cream lovers. Also staff is very friendly :)Dietary restrictions: Non dairy icecream“

“The ice cream flight is perfect to share and try new flavors“

“My daughter and I visited yesterday for the first time. There were so many choices of toppings and they all looked fresh and inviting. We both got froyo and also ordered a boba. The seating is really comfortable while you wait and the decor is very inviting. The worker was very friendly as well. I’m not always a fan of boba but theirs was very tasty and I couldn’t stop stealing sips from my daughter. This will be our new froyo place going forward.“

“Great customer service Stephanie was amazing ice cream is amazing and watching them make the fudge was awesome. Prices could be a little bit cheaper but….“

“I had been meaning to visit the Sweet Spot for a long time and I finally did. My only regret is not having done it sooner. I loved the atmosphere. Excellent for adorable dates, and even get together with friends and catch up. I absolutely loved it all around.“

“Mamas-this is the place for birthday parties! They handle so many details, including cleanup and decorating. You get a designated party host, and they are so accommodating! My 5 year old son and his friends had a blast.They do a bunch of activities with the kids, and everything is so clean. 10/10 recommend!“

“Fresh, delicious, moist cookies, got the Kentucky butter, Vanilla sugar and the Wedding cake, all three were amazing! The service was great, I ordered online on the App and cookies were ready when I made it there, the store is clean and friendly environment“

“Everything is AMAZING ? especially the server with the curly hair he's so sweet and helpful! The ice cream itself is the perfect texture! Not icy, not overly sweet but just right. Absolutely recommend the strawberry cheesecake ice cream ? it's amazing✨?✨ will be back every time I come to VA Beach it's official ?“

“On our first trip to visit family in VirginiaBeach, we were looking for an ice cream place. Came across Gillys's Cremery. We are very particularly about Ice Cream. Gilly's did not disappoint. Every flavor we have tried is delicious. Your first spoonful or lick of your icream and you can tell the ingredients are a high quality and made with knowledge. Love their ice cream!!!!“

“Best ice cream in town and I’m an ice cream junkie. Cookie Monster by the quarts. Always great service at every location. Be careful though, this stuff is addictive!“

“Great atmosphere! So many choices. Lots of space to enjoy. Very friendly staff. Definitely work checking out.“

“When you walk in the door everyone greets you with a hello and a smile. I love to visit an establishment where everyone comes across as if they are HAPPY to be at work and eager to assist the customer. And that’s exactly what my daughter and I received when we walked in. And the establishment was SUPER clean inside!!“

“I ordered 2 types of Bahn mi. There was little to no meat on either sandwiches. I asked for extra pickeled items it was basic of what I get at other restaurants and they charged me 1.25 for extra. only one tiny spear of cucumber. I loved the reviews but was highly disappointed with the out come. the restaurant less than a mile away is much better mommy mom was 100× better and offer more vietnamese food.“

“Typically I have great experiences here and love the food however I am frustrated by my recent visit. I ordered on the app simple combo and extra order of fries. I didn’t receive my fries and was asked to provide a receipt which is confusing when I’m sitting there and they just made my order and handed this to me. So I’m having to prove what I ordered then have to wait for 5 minutes for just my extra fries while my other fries are getting cold. It’s not a BIG deal but it’s those little things that make you see customer service is NOT a priority.“

“Excellent Service the Pizza is Great love the Atmosphere“

“This Carvel location is pretty good. They have a small dining area for a couple to come in and enjoy a frozen treat together. The Icecream is very good. They also have Icecream cakes that they can personalize for you. I recommend this place!“

“Had peanutbutter chocolate yesterday. It was very good (y)“

“To start it was very clean. The young man at the counter was super polite and helpful. When he brought us our food he was very courteous and asked if we needed anything further. While we ate I watched him provide other customers the exact same service. The managers also went the extra mile with customers. I wish I could remember the young man's name. We were there today 4/8/24 around 5:30.pm. An extremely pleasant experience.“

“So good we ate there 3 times in 6 days. Very friendly staff serving great pizza. Had leftovers for lunch the next day. Tried lasagna one day and it was excellent and of course had leftovers for later that night. Wife tried ham and cheese sub that was very good and took half back to the hotel. Eat in or take out which was convenient as we stayed right across the street. They have subs, pizza, calzones,hot dogs, burgers etc. Large selection of ice cream also . If you can't find something to order you aren't really hungry.“

“This was a cute icecream shop on the boardwalk. The establishment was very clean and the service was very friendly. My first time trying the brownie sundae and it was PHENOMENAL!!! I mixed vanilla and chocolate icecream. They have several locations on the boardwalk to get your icecream fix.“

“The person working there I think she's the owner , her name is Esra is absolutely amazing ! She's so kind and thoughtful ! I recommend this place 1,000% I have the best experience every time we eat her desserts ! Her ice cream and bubble waffles ARE DELICIOUS !“

“It was my first time going to Rita’s and I usually have trouble choosing what I want or speaking to people, but the sweetest employee assisted me right away and let me try samples of the ice and hand scoped custard’s and recommended some flavors that she enjoys. My custard was so good I just can't get enough! The sweetest employee, I believe her name is Dafna, helped me sign up for Rita’s rewards to get better deals on future purchases. Big kudos to her, she deserves a raise!!! ??“

“We love love love this ice cream shop! We are locals, so we visit for ice cream all year, even in the winter. The owner is amazing and its the most delicious ice cream but most of all- the cones! I don't know the secret but they're just so delicious!“

“The staff was very friendly and the service was fast. The people complaining about the price? You're obviously going to pay more because you're on the beach. If you want cheaper food go more inland. SMH -_- . With that said, even buying a small they still give you a lot.“
