Reviews of Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream
Joyce Lam
The server/cashier is so awesome! So friendly and generous and seems know what we want before we ask for it. Ice cream is wonderful. Brownies were excellent. Soft serve is also great. The clouds in the ceiling are cool! The other decor is a bit scary to me but it's cool.
g.allison
This place is so cute and ice cream was so delicious! By far the best local ice cream in town! Definitely a must try. Got ourselves some strawberry and cherry ice cream and its bomb! atmosphere is hands down! Loved the Animal Farm inspired decorations and mural. Will come by again next time!
Carmen Diaz
Awesome ice cream shop with literary theme. Animal Farm currently. Not for the faint of heart, but certainly not to be missed. Beautifully decorated with delicious ice cream from WI based creamery.
Massalin K
My friends and I went to get ice cream. After we walked in, we were treated with delicious mini brownies. The decorations are fun and creepy. The server/cashier (Seth) was wonderful. Ice cream was unbeatable. Overall, I like the place. It’s a cool place to hangout with friends.
Victory J (USA)
Lovely atmosphere, staff very friendly and helpful. Ice cream you can never forget it taste and makes you come back again. The sample I tried, the best start first. Happy place for many🇺🇸 Thank you …
Alice Gray
Delicious, wonderful and weird. Excellent ice cream flavors, over-the-top decorations, pleasant people and being open late make this my new favorite spot in Chicago. The dystopian Animal Farm decor is such a mood.
Belinda Kimble
This was a wonderful experience. We were able to enjoy our ice cream and sit on the patio and chat for an hour. The servers doted on us. We are looking forward to coming back.
AD
Always decked out for every season/ reason/ holiday in elaborate decorations with decadent ice cream to match. Come for the full fat and full flavor treats but stay for the fantastic atmosphere. The friendliest staff ever, consistently, and they you offer samples while you stare drooling at the multitude of delicious frozen options. Love ❤️
# Halloween, Election Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, Easter. So cool that they do the variety of themes! It really is so well put together and takes so much time and consideration.

I got roped in to going here by some friends 4 years ago. I forgot how amazing the service is when I came back to meet up with a friend. I was offered a sample brownie (that was very welcomed by my chocoholic tastebuds.) And a sample soft serve all while exploring the menu to make my order. At this point once you get your order, who needs dinner? After your order alot of big chain ice cream shops are quick to forget about you, but they continue to come around with cold water for you. And of course the ice cream is tasty, and I would say just right. If you've had Oberweis before you've probably found it very rich. So much so that it is overwhelming. I think the ice cream here is right on the mark, hits the spot juuuuust right. It's Edgebrook so parking in general can be tough but if you're lucky parking is available right around the corner. One last thing, bring your cash, they are cash only.
Nico H
Ice cream shopping can be fun! Products here are delicious. We found ourselves come back every summer for more. The flavors can be creative and fun! They offer a mix of traditional, creative, or funky flavors. One thing for sure, they are never boring! We feel like kids got into a candy shop again.
sophia a
Everything about this place is so good. I can’t believe I have passed it for more then 20 years never stopped by it’s got awesome flavors! And the place looks so dope
vin qua
I went tonight with a friend cause she wanted some ice cream but I didn't get anything. This guy comes out with brownie samples and offers me a glass of water...he seems to be a genuinely nice dude so if this is not his business (cause he looks young) I hope they're treating him right. This place has a lot of personality and great costumer service! Solid 5 stars.
Michael Kaiz
Perfect find. We were driving until we came upon an open ice cream shop (that was actually the plan), and so glad we found this one. Great selection of flavors, the variety of coated waffle cones was amazing. And the service was above and beyond! The decor was fun too!
I visited a year later to pick up some sherbert. They had great options, like Orange, Electric Watermelon, and Passion Fruit. They also changed up all the decorations.
Samien Salgado
Whomever hates on this place is just looking for a complaint. Place is strange and different. I'm not sure if it's the owner or just an employee, but both times I've been he always greets warmly. Even stopped what he was doing to wave as we walked in. Great tasting ice cream, great portions and price, well ain't thrifty ice cream but for the service, ambiance and experience, worth it. I will be back more and spread the word.
David Gluvakovic
I love this place, been going here 18+years, now I have a family to take there. My daughter was amazed by decoration! The staff working there are 10/10!
Irfan Khan
Been coming here years, probably over a decade now that I think about it. They have a really good selection of ice cream (including vegan). My favorite is the Fat Elvis & Heaps of Love. Only downside is they are cash only.
S M
Incredible experience and incredible ice cream! Literally a destination!!! Blue moon is the BEST!
Migui Angelie
Dreamsicle was super delicious, the staff was great and the decor was SUPER awesome. Totally loved and recommend.
Luis Leal
The best about this place is the staff, every time I go over there they guy that works there offer us free samples of chocolate or brownies, when we are eating our ice cream he just get to our table without asking and bring us some water and ask in a really kind way how's everything! The ice cream is so excellent and they always put a really nice decoration
Jess Sol
Best Ice Cream shop in the Chicago-land area... been a fan for 5+years.
First the ambiance is like no other shop, it's decorated from floor to ceiling and it's changed every few months. They offer complementary cups of water and mini orange soft serve. They are cash only so come prepared.
2nd, the staff has always been exceptional, they deal with hundreds of patrons a day and not once have I felt tension or had unpleasant experience from anyone.
And lastly their ice cream is the most delicious ever...better than any store bought brands. There is 0 judgement if you want to try all 30+of their flavors, they have options for everyone (Gelato and dairy free). Their house waffle cones are too good..everything is just amazing here, just go!
The Guy
So I came here for the first time and this is a very unique place.They had festive decorations and there service was excellent.I do want to especially give praise to Edward who really was a joy and a breath of fresh air to the meaning of customer service!! They have a very wide range of selections and it offers great place for family gatherings.
Elizabeth Kirwan
Love this ice cream shop! Clearly it’s been awhile since we were there as I forgot they cash only! Good news...don’t fret if you show up empty handed like I did, they have an ATM right by front door! Their decor inside can’t be beat and ice cream was delicious! They have a huge selection of hand dipped cones as well. And if Fido is with you, he will love their vanilla soft serve! And finally, it wouldn’t be five stars without the amazing staff!! So friendly and so nice, was a great trip today!
Shpendi Jashari
Stopped by for ice cream with family. Employees are friendly and helpful as my son wanted to try a couple of flavors. Ice cream and cones are amazing, and they have a large variety. Love the vibe at this place. They currently have like a haloween covid theme which is cool and my son loved it.
Charles Oliveira
Staff was very friendly. They let my son and I sample items in addition to the featured items already set out for sampling. Our box of chocolates was very delicious!
Jeffrey Seidman
This ice cream shop is super creepy in a good way and the ice cream was creamy and delicious. The dude running the place was very cool and gave us brownies to taste while we waited. It was a great surprise to find after taking in the Sauganash Christmas lights. Don't miss it!
Jessica Chavez-Hernandez
There are non-dairy options. The gentleman that tended to us was by himself, and gave the customers samples of brownies, hot chocolate, and water. So friendly and has great music!
Yvette Rossadillo (Sorceress of Shadows)
I used to bring my son here when he was in preschool. He's 18 now and we live in Texas. Had to come by. OMG they have chocolate covered cookie bowls and amazing brownies. The ice cream is amazing. I liked the "Exhausted Parent" and the Raspberry chocolate, I don't remember the name but it was delicious🍦🍨🍧🍪🍰 …
ItzCottonCandy W
This place is fantastic. It’s more a destination than an ice cream shop! Every time we go ice cream is fantastic but the changing decor & vibe is over the top! Last night we were there & great music was playing into the street, disco ball spinning & magic fluffy clouds & sparkly lighting filled the room. Great staff was hustling like crazy to serve but also pass out free samples of the cutest mini cones & their AMAZING brownies plus passing out free ice waters to all the patrons. helpful attitudes while clearly working really hard. Great outdoor seating too! While the pandemic left many places short staffed & surly somehow this place has managed to get even better.
Ej Alfanta
Great service! They were friendly and gave us several ice cream samples. The Rocky Road was excellent, but the decorations in the store (left over from Halloween) were even better--really inventive and well done. This is one of the best ice cream shops in Chicago, they do it right.
m Owaynat
We just moved to the neighborhood a couple months ago and decided to try this place out. I came in with my wife and 2 year old twins. From the moment we walked in we were greeted with brownies and just amazing service. Now it was time to try the ice cream. The gentleman recommended caramel sea salt with cashews (I forgot the name) and it was delicious. I took a scoop of that while my wife loved the cotton candy flavor. I was going to get a scoop for the toddlers but the gentleman there handed them mini soft serve cones. What an awesome place. This will be our new favorite spot as along as we live here.
Jesse Deyoung
I love this place. The employees are friendly and helpful and always give samples of Chocolate. Just wish they sold white chocolate.
James Strid
Some very interesting artwork. Very Orwellian. Then there's mannequins in the window dressed as politicians dancing in a flurry of money. And the ice cream is good too!
Maryiam Ahmed
If I could give this place 10 stars I would!!!! Not only is their ice cream DELICIOUS, the service is amazing! I’ve never been to an ice cream shop thinking I would be blown away by how nice the staff is! Charlotte was the only one working, and upon arriving, she offered my husband and I a sample of a cone. It was really good! (Orange and vanilla soft serve) I didn’t realize the place was cash only and after ordering, I was 11 cents short. Charlotte said this gives you a reason to come back again and you can pay the rest next time! My husband and I were so happy and grateful. We sat outside to enjoy the weather and eat ice cream. While we sat outside, Charlotte came out and said ice cream makes you thirsty and handed us 2 glasses of water! I was just amazed. One thing after another, the atmosphere the service, the ice cream- everything was so good. This is my new go to place!!! Do yourself a favor, and check this place out!!!! There’s so many varieties (dairy free/ etc) of ice cream and flavors. They do have an ATM if you don’t have cash, but definitely worth going to! Support a local business!
Desiree Palumbo
Dope atmosphere, staff wasextra friendly! They even give you desert for your desert if you stick around to eat your icecream..oh and a brownie bite before you order! Definitely worth the ride..I'm from Southside we took that 40min rideand I'm glad we did
Tiffany Stockhausen
Great selection of yummy ice cream! Cute and interesting decor. Son said “place is freaky but it has great ice cream”. Beware it is cash only!
aidan mclogan
Great experience! Two friends and I stopped by for a late night indulgence. We were met with amazing customer service, spectacular decor, and delicious ice cream. Their waffle bowls are legendary, and the samples flow freely.
Tyson was the counter staff, and he was perfect. Great customer service, incredibly dedicated to helping us find the flavor we want. Must have eaten 9 or 10 samples without barely asking! I would mention to my friend "wow ____ sounds amazing!" And before I could even ask for a sample, he would hand me a sample of the flavor I was curious of.
Prices were more than your local dairy Queen, but the quality and selection of product more than justifies the price difference. Forget dairy Queen, this place is the cats pajamas.
Highly recommend to anyone in the area, local, or visiting from out of town like myself. Winter or summer check it out.
Jose “MyTechNinjas” Echevarria
Great ice cream and awesome staff, they take care of you from the moment you walk in the door! Lots of samples and water for all and most definitely our favorite family ice cream spot!!!pq
Gaurav Mathur
I’ve never been to an ice cream shop which hands out brownie samples, mini chocolate vanilla swirls and even cold water for free. Great great service and excellent icecream. Must visit.
ROSALINDA ARIAS
Friendly staff, variety of options to choose from, and delicious ice cream!! Definitely recommend this place!
M
Was there the evening of 9/12/22. Had stellar service and such genuine kindness from the employee taking care of us. Not to mention the amazing London Fog ice cream!
Allan Memic
Amazing service at this place! Got my fav ice cream tried bunch of samples on top of that the they brings us more samples and water outside. Talking about VIP service. BTW they have the most delicious ice cream cone waffles in town.
Behemoth “Behemoth”
It's a heaven for ice cream lovers! Really tasty and delicious! Also it's very important, stuff are very professional and friendly. While we seating outside they give us cups with cold fresh water! Love it.
Yvonne A
Great interior decorating, fun themes and social commentary. Ice cream selection is great, the employees will give many samples without even asking, so it's nice if you don't know what to pick. Waters are also given out, so amazing customer service. Great taste and good people!
HH
Good icecream, cool ppl here.
Kiljoong Kim
This creatively decorated ice cream shop in commercial stretch of Edgebrook is a cool place that also happens to be one of the few places in Chicago that carries Chocolate Shoppe ice cream from Madison, WI.
Despite its coolness, there are couple of minuses - one, it is cash only. I would have spent more had they accepted other means of payment. But having ATM by the entrance isn’t necessarily the best option for customers. Two, being an ice cream place, one would not expect the sound level of music to be comparable to that of sport bars. But it is challenging to carry a conversation at times because the music is simply too loud.
At the end, it is a great place to visit during a hot summer night when you can sit out.
Leonela Nunez
Very cute little ice cream spot! Bring cash, loved the brownie sample! 😁
Also omg! The DECOR 😁 …
Rachel Meiri
Hilarious and delicious flavors, attentive and eclectic staff. The decor was macabre but really well done, looking forward to seeing whatever it is next!
Sinthia Victoria
Walking in there was an experience itself! Icecream is great too! Definitely check this place out!
S Espo
They have a excellent selection of ice cream and brownies and they've been open the entire pandemic and just a wonderful spot to enjoy a little treat
Joe Calzaretta
5 stars are never enough for this amazing Neighborhood Ice cream shop. The owner is a class act and been here for over 50 years!
Thanks for years of service and one of the most unique Ice cream shops in Chicago !
Businesses like yours are one of a kind !

The employee was very friendly and nice, and the ice cream was great. The interior decoration is really neat too. I had my first blue moon ice cream cone here! A great experience overall <3
Galya Dancheva
Very cool place to get some icecream! A lot of flowers and seating area outside. Cute decor and yummy ice cream!
Employees are very friendly and bring you water without even having to ask!
kevin gabriel
This place is so trippie cool. I compared it to a basking robins on mushrooms. It's a must try!
Yesterday we were on our way to another ice cream shop when we saw this corner. When we made it to the place we were going, we actually turned back to go in here.
The decorations are super different unlike any other icecream spot I have visited.
The girl server on the pm shift that evening, offered us samples and a mini cupcake. She let us sample the ice creams without asking that was a nice touch.
Once we had our desserts and ate them, she came around with waters and I was simply amazed by this place. Will be back!
Joseph Babani (Yossi)
If you want a unique ice cream experience THIS is the place to go to! The service is amazing - they let you try every flavor you want, they offer you baked goodies when you walk in and then to top it off they bring you a fresh cup of ice water to enjoy after your ice cream! Amazing! The ice cream flavors and names are super fun and unique, and the ice cream tastes awesome. I could go on and on... definitely going back.
Jacob Callihan
Great ice cream with even better employees and service. Cash only but they do have an ATM available on site.
mollybitters
This place was trippy, in an awesome way! All decked out for Halloween (including staff), when we started looking at ice cream flavors, the young man begins the counter just silently started handing us ice cream taster after taster. It was all delicious. Unique flavours, fun toppings and coated cones, old school ice cream parlor overlaid with modern surrealism. Generous helpings too!
Kim De Anda
Definitely check this place out. Not only is it like a dream inside but the ice cream flavors they have are amazing. The guy helping me out was really kind and helpful to me choosing a flavor.
Cindy Ruiz
Such friendly staff and I love the Halloween decorations!!! And of course the ice cream is delicious!!
Jill Edwards
Our families favorite ice cream funk shoppe! Always attentive friendly staff. Make sure to bring enough cash...it is pricey but worth every lick.
Chris P
Wacky outrageous decor, funky music on the radio and staff members that love putting joy in people’s hearts! It’s the kind of place you would have seen on PBS’ Wild Chicago back in day. How’s the ice cream? Well Ice Cream Shoppe is renowned for quality in the Midwest and these guys have by far the largest selection. Over 40 flavors to choose from at any one time. Importantly they carry a lot of DAIRY ALTERNATIVE options. I love the soy vanilla chocolate chip. They also make some of the most decadent brownies I’ve ever had. Nobody is left out of the fun! Also amazeballs is that they hand out ice water to customers to go with their deserts. Get over here, escape from it all and SMILE!
Al B
Ice cream is okay (nothing extraordinary) and pricey for what you get, paid over $25 for a couple of scoops and a sundae, I've paid way less in other ice cream shops like "La Michoacana" and "Village Creamery" among others that serves to my taste similar or better ice cream.
Beth Clark
This is the best ice cream I have ever had. So fresh and flavorful. There are plenty of choices for ice cream flavors. There is definitely something for everyone. My daughter has an extream dairy allergy is able to enjoy the dairy free ice cream and this was the reason we picked this shop. Plus there are just so many different types of ice cream cones. It's perfect to satisfy your sweet tooth. They are so friendly and accommodating. While in line we were greeted and they brought out samples and water. One of the best little nooks in the city.
009 Sanjay
Very nice 👌 decorated place, delicious ice cream 🍦 and very friendly staff. 😃 …
Sara Keenan
This place is always so yummy! Ice cream flavors are unique, creamy, and full of flavor! The inside is always decorated so cute and with a cool theme! The colors are always awesome and it's so fun to go in here and see what the new theme is and how the shop is decorated. I came here tonight with my sister and we got the Fat Elvis flavor and Peanut Butter Hearts Chocolate flavor ice cream and it did not disappoint. The employees were super friendly to us and handed out plenty of samples for customers to try - samples are always a plus! An employee came around too with cups of ice water for all of the customers. Staff is great here and treats their customers great! Overall we love this place; it is definitely a very unique and tasty ice cream shop that is different than your standard, cookie cutter place. I highly recommend this place to everyone for a tasty treat!
Girija v
I'm in love!!! It's so difficult to find vegan ice cream in an ice cream parlor and this place truly delivers. Fantastic choices and yes, I said choices!! At least 4-5 different flavors which are soy based. Very flavorful and delicious. Cash only store!! Might want to change that though. Seriously, who on earth has cash on hand anymore?? But do visit!!
Kap Papino
One star off for wayyyy too loud music. Second star off for not taking credit card. Customer service is good, complimentary water is cool, good flavors. It would be a 5 star if not for the above.
Randall Van Kirk
I have always loved this place! It feels like an old time, small town ice cream store, but still in the Chicago city limits. So many flavors, all so tasty. Incredibly friendly staff. Innovative and fun decorations. Keep in mind it is cash only.
Marissa Asfour
AMAZING on soooo many levels! Not only is the ice cream absolutely delicious (I think I sampled 5 different flavors), but the employees are complete sweet hearts. My husband and I biked here and while we were eating our ice cream cones outside, one of the employees brought us glasses of water without us even asking. Super friendly, great music playing, delicious ice cream, and cool colorful shop! Would recommend to all of my family & friends.
Maria Rangel
First time customers with my family, we will be back for sure. We loved the place and of course the ice cream, it was delish! We where enjoying our ice cream and a nice young lady came to us offering cups of water, wow great great service!
Naseer Khan
Ice cream is so-so… not what it was cracked up to be… price was higher than other good chains like Oberweis… atmosphere was interesting! But sitting on nice lounge chairs on the sidewalk was a decent experience… can’t give them all five stars, sorry!
Z
Great ice cream, insanely high prices though. I could buy two gallons of ice cream for the price of two scoopes.
Elysia Aufmuth
This is a unique ice cream shop. They have tons of flavors and options. But the environment is artistically spectacular with unique things to look at and ponder while the kiddos get an ice cream fix. The staff are friendly and helpful, bringing out water and sample cones. Can only imagine how busy they get in the summer. Cash only but they have an ATM with $3 fees. Busy on weekends. Less so on weekday afternoons.
Daisy Train
Customer service is amazing, the way they decorate the place is always impressive and unique. Not too mention their ice cream flavors are delicious. Love it.
Cin Mo (Clark)
Delicious ice cream and cool vibes. Highly recommend!
Russell Angelico
Not just free tasters upon request - BEFORE request! Monthly theme wrapping the whole interior. Kind and patient employees, delicious cones, and super affordable custom creations.
Verity Rogers
The decor is fun and unique! The ice cream is scrumptious! We were greeted immediately and presented with a variety of little samples. They even asked about allergies to make sure that was covered! It is cash only but the ATM on site. This was an amazing find for us!!! I’ll definitely come back whenever we’re in Chicago!
Arie Woo
There are so many different flavor varieties, even a lot of soy options. The inside is a cool fun club like atmosphere. My kids loved it, great spot. The staff was also incredibly friendly and hospitable. Ice cream is on the pricier side but totally worth it, it’s really delicious. Would definitely come back again.
Randy Kim
Totally rad place in this quiet neighborhood . Super friendly. Great selection of ice cream and political punch!
Hannah Hope
This place is incredible! The ice cream and the clouds on the ceiling, the decor, music, the fudge brownie sample made me buy one they are unrealll, so good!
roman gizycki
Excellent place for ice cream! The staff is extraordinary, ALWAYS going above and beyond. Staff members come outside with cups of water for everyone. They have free samples of the ice cream and even some baked goodies! It's clean inside. Great place for dessert even late, they are open til 11pm.
Vivian Leah Wellner
This place is incredibly unique. There are tons of options not only for ice cream flavors but cones, toppings and type of treat. The staff is speedy and personal, even when packed, and you can sample as many types as you want before choosing. The decor reminds me of an old fashioned disco roller rink (in the best way) and seating is plentiful. Cash only but there is an ATM on site. Kids and dogs line up and hang out on all the outdoor seating too. One of my favorite places.
Dan Fernandez
Great service! They were friendly and gave me several ice cream samples, which led to me getting a sundae with scoops of 2 of the sample flavors. The sundae was excellent, but the decorations in the store (left over from Halloween) were even better--really inventive and well done. This is one of the best ice cream shops in Chicago, they do it right.
Emily Miller
*CASH ONLY*
They give free samples, offer water off trays they walk around with, have an ATM, and.... the ice cream is awesome! AND they always decorate the place as if everyday is a day to celebrate. Not to be missed. The staff are patient and attentive.
James B
As usual, ice cream variety and flavor were very good. Prices are fairly steep ($7+ for two scoops in a cup...). Ambience leaves a lot to be desired, too. Not sure what the deal is with the whole zombie theme, especially around the holidays???? And it would be perfectly fine to turn the tunes down a notch; have to shout to order. Can't imagine what it would be like to work there all day...
SJ “Brohan”
CASH ONLY ice cream store but has atm inside. The unique ambience experience and customer service at this location is nothing but extra sweet. Definitely worth the visit to cool down on some creamy and delicious crafty ice cream.
PawelR
Good ice cream place, funny seasonal decorations, friendly staff. Little overpriced
Filza Naim Amir
Fun ice cream shop. We've been to 2 other locations in Wisconsin. The ice cream is very light and tasty. Lots of flavors to choose from. They change their decoration-theme monthly almost to match that months holidays. The only complain would be, compared to up north locations, these guys have their prices a bit high. We got 2 kid sizes bowls, and 2 one scoop adult bowl, and the total was $20 bucks.
Other than that, I would highly recommend visiting this place :)
Fabian Obando
I’ve been here many times growing up and I’m happy to say that this place still holds near and dear to me. They go all out in the decore and always have exceptional service.
Tyson was awesome and runs the place amazingly well! His customer service is unmatched and I’m fortunate to experience this awesome ice cream shop each and every time.
jamvine29
Super friendly and funny staff, great and creative ambience, and of course, delicious ice cream!! Don't hesitate to visit (but make sure you have cash).
Juanita Garcia
The ice cream is sooo good. They always have a huge selection of ice cream flavors with a few dairy free or sugar free flavors. The service is always really great and they always have plenty of samples when it's hard to decide on just one.
I've noticed that they have quite a few ready made ice cream cakes and they make custom ice cream cakes too. I keep intending to get one for the next birthday.
I overlook the political displays and decorating themes. Chalk it up to freedom of speech.
Keep in mind that they are cash only
Sara Castle
An ice cream shop with a truly unique atmosphere and fantastic service, oh and the ice cream is pretty good as well :D There is something for everyone here, from traditional flavors to everything-but-the-kitchen-sink, non-dairy options, seasonal flavors, and sorbets. The staff are always offering samples, either of your choosing or just walking around with bite-sized dreamsicle samples in tiny cones. They also pass out cups of water while you enjoy your tasty treat. CASH ONLY.
Nolioli Ravioli
My family and I love this place. The decor is awesome and changes every so often. They are not cheap but for the price they treat you really well and load you up with samples and free little treats. Ice cream is top notch and service is amazing though I've never tried their milk shakes.
Christian DeWitt
I will no longer be going anywhere else for ice cream. This place is great. So many flavors and the most groovy place to hang out. The asthetic design us completely awesome. The service is great with a bunch of samples and water to customers, which felt welcoming. The flavors taste amazing and keep me wanting to come back for more.
chevywaldo
Fun place to try. Ice cream is good. Atmosphere is fun and different. Cool music playing. Lots of specialty cones and other treats to choose from, but be prepared to pay a premium price for your visit. Not cheap and small portions.
Steve Heminover
A real gem !! The ice cream is wonderful and the seasonal decorations make this a great destination!! The people here are very friendly and give out free samples (YUM!!) of whatever you would like to try !! This is NOT a chain store, and as such, they have many unique ice cream flavors. You can eat inside or outside, weather dependent... Cash Only !!!
Kevin McKinney
Awesome. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner and chatting with him. Oh yea, the ice cream is top notch!
Kristin Nicole
The Fat Elvis is my favorite and their brownie sundaes are a must have!

Unlimited samples, huge selection, excellent service, amazing decor and THE best ice cream! Plus, they really love kids here! It's no wonder this place has been around so long, they are fantastic and open year round. Worth the drive if you live far, lucky for us we don't!!
Mally Castaneda
First time ordering an ice cream cake the gentleman over the phone was very nice. He asked how I wanted decorated and I told him my daughter liked unicorns and the cake was absolutely beautiful!. I'm extremely impressed with this place, service is excellent the cake was amazing and delicious. Worth every penny!

Awsome shop. Great staff. We came here for first time and didn't know they take cash only. Their staff was really understanding and gave us a receipt and asked us to come back and pay but don't worry and enjoy the ice cream with family. Great flavors, staff walking around with small scoops of different flavor and cups of water for customers. They have a great ambiance and outdoor seating. Very hard working and nice staff. Highly recommended. Staff appears to really enjoy their jobs and have fun. Kudos to owner for creating this environment.
Margaret van Steenderen
The brownies are quite stale. Costly for what you get.
Darryl Thompson Powell (revdtp)
One of the friendliest and tastiest ice cream shoppes I've been to. The brownie sundae is big enough for two! Must try flavors: Zanzibar (a super-rich dark chocolate) and This $&@! Just Got Serious.

Amazing customer service. Everyone is friendly. The jungle theme is really fun. Good lighting. I told the guy it was our first time here and he loaded us with samples of tiny, cute cones, and tiny cupcakes. We all loved the orange sorbet/custard combo. It so good and refreshing.

Edwin Castaneda
Such an amazing experience! The staff were super friendly, and the shop is clean. The quality of ice cream is high quality and delicious. Definitely will be a regular 😎 try the munchie madness …
Deysi Jarta
Festive decoration, excellent attention to the public ,nice sitting outdoors, waiters giving water, good and exotics flavors.
Lana
VEGAN FRIENDLY!! I went to this fine establishment with an unfortunate bearing that there would not be any dairy-free options. To my ultimate delight, the Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream not only carries many dairy/soy-free flavors, but they also carry vegan friendly desserts too! They had a chocolate chip cookie, brownie, and red velvet cookie, I believe. The team member, Tyson, was extremely accommodating and did mind me sampling multiple flavors, going out of his way to get tubs of ice cream from the back for a tasting. He was very friendly and kind, and gave my family and I a great experience. The vegan flavors were delicious, and I cannot wait to come here again. Thank you, Tyson!
Mary Biancalana
OMG, this is literally the best ice cream I have ever had. The Fat Elvis is my favorite! It is a funky and fun local shop with tons of interesting pop art and decorations based on the season, or politics... the staff are really friendly and they allow you to taste a few flavors before you make your choice. Totally worth it! Highly recommended!
Angela McElwain
They'll offer free tastes until you decide which flavor you want of the best ice cream around. You can also get gelato, brownies, ice cream cakes etc. The interior [and sometimes the exterior] is always decorated in an entertaining and often thought provoking way. This is real, creamy, dairy ice cream. [Not air filled, corn syrupy soft serve which should never find its way into a human body.] Visit and indulge yourself! Go ahead. Get 2 scoops. You deserve it.
Helena Olbortova
My most favourite ice cream shop!!! Not just because the taste and the wide variety of flavours you can choose from but also the service is super awesome. Always makes you feel like home and always welcoming and of course.... makes your belly full :) I love coming back anytime plus they’re open late night ❤️👌🏻 Top best awesome 👏🏻 …
Shelby Doty
friendly staff & unique decor! cash only but they have an ATM
Enpei Zhu
One of the friendliest ice cream shops I've been to. Very generous with their samples. the flavor selection ranges from Green tea to Rocky road and everything in between. I had a hard time picking a flavor because everything I had was good.
Anaizabella Kleidorfer
Always the best place to get ice cream. Heaps of Love, This S*** Got Serious, and their Cookie Dough is the best flavors of ice cream ever!! I get their m&m come and my husband gets their brownie sundae!
Sanjay Gupta
The ice cream has entertaining names like "Fat Elvis" and "Exhausted Parent". I am amazed not only at quality of ice cream but also the generosity of the owner and staff.
The staff leaves the comfort of being behind the counter and provides samples and glasses of water brought to you. You are welcomed in as one of the family.
Eric Smolen
The ambience is great, but the ice cream is exactly what I like. This place is cash only (but has an atm). It is busy on warm days (go figure) so just know that the wait is worth it.
Michelle Mosier
A fun lively atmosphere for all ages. 100 flavors of ice cream with samples and they made small dreamcycle ice cream cones with a warm chocolate cookie to taste test. Amazing service. They even brought water outside to us. A+ rating.
Zaffer Basith
This place has a changing theme decor. You also get outside seating on nice lawn chairs depending on the time of year. The ice cream is delicious. I would go back more often if the ice cream wasn't so darn expensive. The staff I have encountered are very nice and friendly and ready to serve.
Nguyen Nguyen
Fun vibe, outdoor seatings on a wide sidewalk. They have a coffee bar now! Staffs are great and friendly.
Jehoshuah K (CrunchyTuna)
Funky place with delicious and rich flavors of icecream. They have non dairy options as well. At 9pm on a monday night we were craving some icecream and this place was like a beacon in the night. Guy there greeted us with free samples and happily provided taste spoons of any flavor we wanted. After we got out treats he arrived with waters for both of us. Service was fantastic. Atmosphere was funky and absurd(which i loved). Ice cream was top notch. All boxes checked. We'll be back for sure!
Caitlin Palm
This place is absolutely amazing I would definitely recommend this to everybody!! Such a great atmosphere the workers are so awesome they gave me many samples helping me decide which to get. Also there is such a huge selection of ice cream and it is delicious. If I could give this place more than a 5 star I would.
Gumaro Esparza
Very popular ice cream hangout. It's whimsical and they do a great job decorating. Seems like when I do visit there's a different theme inside. The best part is the many different flavors of ice cream. One night they gave samples of orange sickle, it's was really really good. A must try for those in the far NW side of the city.
Bobby Tountas
Excellent service and ice cream. The employee offered us brownies upon entering the store and even offered us water when leaving. Extremely kind guy. Will definitely be back to have more ice cream
Karina Salas
First time customer, will be a regular customer. Very tasty treats!
Cindy Gudino
This service is unmatched. We always get the flavor with the swear word but it's truly the personalization of the visit that we appreciate. We always sample the treats. Decorations are so intricate and fun, visited for Halloween and I loved it! 10/10 you have to try it!
Noah Schneider
We had the nicest woman help us! She gave us about a million samples without asking and was very kind and courteous! The ice cream was delicious and the Donald Trump decorations were funny. Would recommend.
karina giammaria r tt
I love this place, they always have a dairy free option and the service is go great, they bring samples of ice cream and glasses of water to everyone. They always do it up big for Halloween too but this summer seems to be '70s theme. Such a cute ice cream shop.
fred s
The ice cream was delicious and staff was friendly!! But only reason im giving a 4 star is because its CASH ONLY!.. I would understand if your prices where a lot reasonable but its not. Having an option to pay with credit card is great convenience for customer and service.
Liann T
Ice cream is pretty good, customer service is fantastic. They only take cash. The lighting is dim and the music is very loud. They decorate for the time of year and really go all out with a mural on a whole wall. A ton of flavors of ice cream to choose from.
Suarez
Very kind staff, first thing we were offered were free brownies upon entering! When we sat down for our ice cream we were given waters too! Highly recommended, very good Zanzibar Chocolate Icecream
christina k (Ckaddy)
Really good service and great decorations. The kids always love to go here, plus whenever we stop by with our dog they offer her a "doggie sundae" which is a huge bowl of vanilla soft serve. Very cute! My only complaint is that its pretty expensive but worth the experience!
Frances Miller
Cool atmosphere. But be prepared since they are cash or check only, which completely threw me. The ice cream was good but I thought it was pricey. I was disappointed.
Robbie
Went on a date here earlier today with my girlfriend. The service was great, very friendly! We sat outside in the sunshine and the guy who served our ice cream brought us a smaller ice cream and a cup of water. Definitely coming back here.
Lori L
It's always a party at the Chocolate Shoppe! The unabashedly progressive political decor themes mix with a fantasy landscape of disco lights and rock n roll. In the summer, the party spills out onto the street till 11 PM, where ample beach chairs are staged as if on the oceanfront. Did I mention the strolling servers offering free samples? Soy ice cream available in multiple flavors for vegans and lactose intolerant guests.
Jennifer Diaz
I love the ice cream here! The employees are outstanding! Just be warned, the music is a little loud, it is a little dark, and decoration is pretty political.
Gail Em
It seems like this place is open in all seasons. They have a very wide selection. The couple times I've gone I've gotten most of the lemon flavors. Every time it was delicious. They decorate their place very elaborately, mostly political but they go along with the holidays. They have outdoor seating if you come during warmer days.
Ashley Rivera
So many choices & the flavors are mind blowing, the pie flavors taste like actual piece of pie, the cereal flavors, coffees, every single thing I’ve tried is amazing. Worth taking a trip for sure. And worth the prices. The atmosphere is also super cool especially for people out of town I’d highly recommend this place.
Mandi Pants
I've been here a few times. I get that it's cute, and possibly the only mom and pop shop ice cream shop in town so it's popular with local families. I love supporting local businesses especially when the staff is friendly and accommodating, but it's definitely pricey. For two kid cones in simple cake cones it was almost $9 (and I always make sure to add a tip for good service so I spent $12) and it's cash only. The closest atm has a $4 atm charge. So for a family of 4, plan on spending at LEAST $20 on ice cream for the most basic order so definitely plan ahead.
Madeline Perez
Love Love Loved it!! Came here from the far south side and I’ve been craving Superman flavor ice cream for weeks. Satisfied my pregnancy craving. Great job with this place! Will definitely be back
Amanda Soto
it's a wonderful place for family and friends. Great atmosphere from the art to the service to the owner. Everyone very clearly enjoys being there. You can sample all the different flavours 100 times and still order your favourite! What's not to love? This place is a gem to people both near and far. It will always have a special spot in my heart and the beautiful thing is I know I'm not alone. Everyone should stop by and become part of the family here.
Donny Harder
Delicious ice cream and delicious satire in the form of political expression. So many flavors to choose from and you'll be hard pressed to find a flavor you don't like. No matter how busy they are they always make time for orange twists in mini cones and hand you water. Love this place!
Ember Urbach
Amazing flavors and an ecclectic environment to match the variety of flavors. The brownie sundae with Zanzibar ice cream is truly one of the best I've cream creations I've ever had.
Amanda Forson
The Chocolate Shoppe is a long-time staple for the neighborhood. Differences between this and other places? Tent-like interior that gets re-painted every season with various messages for one. It's never dull. Beyond that, Zanzibar chocolate and other flavors of amazing ice cream. Open year-round, they have outdoors seating in the summer. Nice crew members who give out samples and tiny cones as you are trying to decide. It's a fun place for good ice cream. Prices are comparable to Oberweis but they give more ice cream in more flavors. Cons: Cash only. Parking isn't too bad if there isn't a big crowd.
Amy Ravit Korin
Cute and eclectic decor and so many amazing ice cream options! They have great cones - my fave is ice the m&m crusted cone but they also have vanilla sprinkled dipped and colorful cones for kids.
Bartosz Surowka
Love this place. Always a different theme and they super creative. Ice-cream is great with lots of variety. The decor is worth visiting every month. There is only street parking so it's tough to get a spot during rush hour.
Eli Hernandez
This place has character and is the spot for good ice cream. While some people might be “unsettled,” (they clearly desire the same copy and paste monotony that plagues their insignificance) others will welcome freedom of expression in this awesome storefront. The ice cream itself is unique and thought out, and I would argue better than cold stone. All in all, this is a local ice cream shoppe with intentional decor and music. What’s better than that?
raphanthony ritual
Excellent quality ice cream with really good flavors. Service was great as well. Kept giving out samples without even asking. This is how an ice cream shoppe should be. Worth a drive. Come and support this great place!
Heather Austin
Nice quality cones and ice cream. Everything is very flavorful. It was expensive for me to go there but I paid for only two scoops. With all the free samples I probably ate four scoops. Very friendly and accommodating staff. I will come back again.
Samantha Santiago
Shop owner is extremely nice and the creative atmosphere is just what we were looking for. I’ve cream is amazing! Owner helped us find a good flavor. We went with his recommendation. Try this place!
Paul Smeets
Hippie style decoration and music. Delicious ice cream in many flavors, and the owners are also nice and free in spirit. Tons of free samples were given away and fresh water was kindly served. When in the mood for ice cream I would go again!
Nancy M
So many great choices and best decor inside.
Gabriela Ariza
Excellent place. Good ice cream and the employees are so friendly offering samples and water! I’m so glad we stopped by
Tom K
Free samples galore! I didn't have enough hands for all that was being offered.
Peanut butter cookie dough ice cream! How come nobody else does that?
Super nice staff. Interesting interior. Good music. Outdoor seating. Open late.
Eric Lee
Godlike. The Mad World vibe made my 9/11 Conspiracy heart feel at home. The ice cream was absolutely top notch, as was their customer service(the free samples made the many eyed angels blow trumpets of ecstasy into my mouth ears) But most importantly they had a small but diverse enough selection of dairy free options that help a Lactose Intolerant Lad like myself feel noticed in this dark dairy world of ours.
Also they were handing out free water which, pro-tip, is something we all need in order to survive so I'm glad they picked up on that.
Cool place.
Aimen Halim
Great ice cream! Super friendly staff and tons of flavors! Cash only place but totally worth it!
Cally Broughton
We went here in December with our puppy. The man was amazing and gave our puppy a lot of love. The flavors are awesome! The brownie was one of the best I've had. Check this place out!
John Cotter
It is my firm belief that good ice cream should have a slightly stretchy consistency, and this place has it. It's hard to find good ice cream. Most places make their ice cream sickeningly sweet. Semi-sweet is all I need for my ice cream to be.
Yolanda Gonzalez
We loved it here. Their customers service was exceptional and everything was really clean. The ice cream was delicious. My daughters can't wait to come back.
Sondie Quiram
I've been enjoying WI made Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream for 16 years! (from different locations in IL & MN) & it remains my favorite Ice Cream! *Iced Latte-Da is one of the best! :)
**Tonight's 5 stars are for the customer service experience I got on my Birthday today!**
Maria R
Ice cream is always very good. Also love their different decorations all the time. Have been going here for over 20 years.
Joseph Hart
Delicious! "Exhausted Parent" is an apropos flavor.
Carol Mondel
The very best ice cream in town. Many delicious flavors to chose from. Old standbys always there but always new flavors to tickle your taste buds. You will NOT be disappointed.
Mr Julian Nicholas Taylor
Man the chocolate shoppe, one of my favorite franchise icecream getaways!! Its been under one owner for the last 53 years! Going through 4 franchise changes this place has maintained its intimate environment, which gives the most pleasant experience for all ages. From the redecorating 4 times a year , this makes them a destination location for a first date for couples. I can tell you from personal experience that they have sealed the deal for me more than once 😉😋😎. As to the ice cream: absolutely amazing! With 43 flavors to choose from , toppings galore and the most personable customer interaction. They go above and beyond the average icecream parlor experience. With endless samples and complementary water thats brought to your table , it makes the most pleasant time of a night out! Truely proud to be able to review them after being a 2 time employee over 10 years ago .
Thank you Ron for striving to be the best of the best, the neighborhood would be at a loss without you
jason szczesniak
So many choices between ice cream cones cookie cups and brownies and the decor is awesome and prices are reasonable
Citrine Peach
Just went there tonight. There was a really sweet girl and a guy named Matt, both went far beyond to satisfy and were very polite. AWESOME ice cream flavors, I got a banana split, and girlfriend got a oreo and m&m dipped cone, super delicious. Didn't realize it was cash only and only had a card, and she let us eat beforehand before paying so my girlfriend could run to an ATM. Also they have an awesome sound system and a retro setup inside. Would come back all the time. :)
RASHONDA
Don't pass this place up..
The waffle cone is so good with birthday cake ice cream and lemon ice cream on top sounds crazy but its the best..
I had the chance to stop by this cafe style ice cream shoppe. It so cute and well decorated..you just fall in love..
Shout out to the owner and staff 🎉 It I lived closer to this place I would be a #1 customer..enjoy
Ruby George
I've been coming here for at least 30 years, and it's still my favorite. They spoil your pups too by giving them their own ice cream treat!
joseph vadnai
Oh my God! Best ever! I love the passion fruit Italian ice!
Steven Jennings
This is one gem I discovered recently. Super friendly staff are always offering you samples of EVERY FLAVOR. Haha! They have a cool vibe and unique funky atmosphere. Cool music and fun decor! Better Ice Cream!!
MARIA VAZQUEZ
Such a fun place to visit and a great selection of ice cream. Also the staff is friendly and hand out samples for guests to try and water on a hot summer day or just to water down the sweetness.
Matt
The best EXPERIENCE. I didn't want samples... but they had spoonfuls in front of me anyways. And man o man am I glad I got them. Lemon poppyseed in an ice cream form is the greatest thing since the vanilla bean.
Then... as I'm eating, secretly feeling thirsty... a young woman brings me a cup of ice water. Uuuugh, take me back.
Breann Logunetz
Not only is this fabulous ice cream, but the Customer Service is out of this world! I came here for the first time on Saturday night with my 2 dogs and they each received their own bowl of water and Sunday (soft serve ice cream - no dairy topped with a milkbone). If you have never been head over and grab a scoop of fabulous ice cream!
Gen-Gen Gutierrez
They are wicked generous with the samples only to make your decision that much harder. Everything is so good. The decor is awesome. The music is perfect for eating your treats. Go check it out!
ramiro gonzalez
Was looking for an ice cream shoppe for my grand children. Stumbled upon this one. The ice cream is great! They give you a free sample taste and ice water while you wait. Very pleasant people.
Kristy Migala
Great place for ice cream. Great variety. Plenty of choices. Friendly staff. Go check it out! 😋 …
Monica G.
This place has TEN dairy-free options ... four soy and six Italian ices! My tummy rejoiced since I normally don't get to enjoy ice cream with my family. Took the dog with us tonight and they gave her a complimentary doggie sundae -- a vanilla custard with a milkbone on top!! Very cool place, awesome staff, and very delicous frozen treats!
David L
The greatest ice cream shop of all time, and I don't even like ice cream! My son (who loves ice cream) says the ice cream flavors are delicious and creative. And if the ice cream isn't enough, the rotating art installations are worth a visit.
Krystal Gomez
Great ice cream. Great customer service. Everyone is really friendly. They let you sample as much as you want and have tombs of great options. But you have to take cash when you go they don't take cards.
Patrick Montgomery
Excellent, ice cream is amazing, I have a few favorites, Peach, Banana Cream Pie, this s@#t just got serious, Raspberry rhapsody, and a few others and the have puppy sundaes
Natalia G
You're able to try any fun flavor they have and they always have cute little new samples. Atmosphere is very welcoming and I love the different fun decorations.
Louise Palesh
Great choices in ice creme, soy too. And fun decorations, all year long. Nice staff too. They give out samples!
Lena P.J.
Lively atmosphere and free samples galore! Top of off with flavors you can’t find anywhere else such as Zoreo - Zanzibar chocolate with Oreo - and this is one of the best ice cream shops in the area.
ernesto hemingway
Delicious ice cream for young and old.
There are also Ice creams made from Soy milk.
Enjoy a quiet moment eating Ice cream with your family and friends.
christine duers
When I lived in Chicago we used to go here all the time! Amazing place with incredible decorations favorite memories of when the theme was candy land and then when it was wizard of oz and they had painted the color changing horse with paint that changed colors depending on where you stood! Can't wait to go back there and get a blue moon waffle cone!:)
Lori DeSalvo
Such rich ice cream... almost like gelato.Fun place with cool decorations and friendly staff. Plenty of seats inside and out.
Kenni Terrell
Packed on a Saturday night. I love to see it! Everyone was wearing masks and they handed out some brownie bites to try. I'm not a fan of their vanilla but their cotton candy is pretty creamy.
Carolyn Sniegowski
Have gone there for many years and was never disappointed. Great ice cream and wonderful service!
Gerry Xydis
Always awesome. Theme is now a swamp. And atm now inside.
Brigid B
Delicious fresh ice-cream, I've absolutely loved this place since 2016! Has never changed!!
Barb Peterson
Fantastic Ice Cream! Super friendly staff! Samples - glasses of water are passed out. Also, the seasonal decor changes frequently and is entertaining in itself ! Check out the Halloween decor
Michael Allen
*excellent* ice cream is all under CRC, servings are generous, they happily give tastes. Two scoop sundae is cheaper than two single scoops, so go with a friend.
Minju Lee
A little on the expensive side but as expected of a good ice cream shop. There are many ice cream flavors (all of which taste amazing). They have decorations that are outstanding.
Jessica Shyer
Absolutely great place with great people! The decor changes every couple of months with local art. Lots of samples offered. Definitely recommend this place, blue moon is my personal favorite.
Julie Leavitt
Best service, they offer tastes of any of their ice creams (which are high qualtity and unique flavors). Many non-dairy and vegan options as well! This place never fails to put a smile on everyone's faces!
D P
The best! Super friendly staff,cosmic retro vibe, tons of free samples of the best ice cream in or near Chicago, and a HUGE ever- changing hand-painted (often politically charged pop culture) wall mural and window display.
lisa Wolfe
1st time here! Atmosphere Freakin Awesome! Ice cream Yummylicous! Staff Best Sevice! Free Samples, Fast Service, Walking around with water so cool!!! Love!
Ruby George
I've been coming here since I was a kid! The staff is always so friendly, and the sample spoons seem to be endless! It's expensive for ice cream, but totally worth it.
Mohammad Banibaker
Very friendly service. Great ice cream. Be warned though, they do not accept credit cards. CASH ONLT. Of course we found this out after we bought the ice cream, which put us a sticky situation...
Rodrigo Corona
Best ice cream in Chicago. Hands down. Can get pricey and they only take cash. Can't afford to make it a weekly treat but worth spoiling yourself with every once in a while.
Victoria Bellisario
Minus one star for accepting cash only. Really when 2 ice creams are over $12, you need to accept debit cards. We all know this is done in order to fudge cash receipts for tax purposes.
Keith Jackson
An amazing place with some if the nicest workers you can ever meet. The ice cream was amazing and the bakery was so fresh.
Crystal Hendricks-Kretzer
Love this little ice cream spot! So many flavors, and they invite you to taste any that you want. My only complaint is that it's quite expensive.
Umar Nadeem
Best icecream spot in town! Staff is always super duper friendly and the place is always decorated so nice!
Nicci Cisarik De Jesus
One of my favorite places to get Ice Cream! Always a great selection and it has a fun/quirky environment. Customer service is also fantastic.
Matthew Reese
The ice cream is great, but the atmosphere is utterly delightful. It adds up to a fantastic and memorable experience.
LM
Ice cream is great and service is even better. They also have cool decor and outdoor seating
Chris Wogaman
I think they gave me as much ice cream in free samples as what I bought and it was all delicious. But more than the ice cream was the rad vibe and decor. Loved it all!
Karina Garcia
Consistently good ice cream—what a treat! Staff is friendly. Cash only but ATM machine conveniently inside!
Jacob Williams
Great experience. Lot's of ice cream and topping options. Friendly staff. Good soul music.
JDM Concrete and Demo
The ice cream if high quality and they have many flavor options. The decor is something you must check out for yourself. Very cool place.
Jim Dyra
Interesting ice cream selection and ambiance. Overall great vibe and especially appreciate the wall art. The only suggestion I would offer is to consider offering gourmet coffee.
sara m.
Beyond delicious and creamy ice cream! Fantastic service! Fantastic prices, just a heads up, cash ONLY though. Otherwise, beyond favorite place!!
paul edison
Chocolate shop ice cream is excellent. I love chocolate shop ice cream. The service is excellent. Sometimes, the background music is way too loud.
Jeremy Leib
Great staff and great ice cream. Great selection too. Only reason it's four rather than five stars is that it's a bit pricey.
Alexandra Perez
OMG BEST PLACE EVER. And such amazing customer service. My cousin and I went in after a spa trip and we were like oh no we don’t have cash and I wish I could spell his name? Something with a Z. Literally the sweetest man I have ever met in my life. Thank you so much ❤️
Thomas T Morris
If you hadn't try Chocolate Custered ice cream, this is the place. They have this Orange Sickle Ice Cream like the gum when I was a kid chewing on, and Apple Pie Crisp Ice cream. Out of this world. It's been here since 1970. He has a dairy farm where he produces the ice cresm. CASH ONLY.
Emma Gormley
Amazing ice cream! Fun flavors, friendly service, and great decorations. Highly recommend the blue moon!
Marty Wit
This place is A+++++++. Amazing service - very friendly. Ice Cream flavors and taste are phenomenal. Atmosphere is unparalleled. Place to go for ice cream if you stop by Chicago.

Rebecca
Awesome spot. Love the decor and customer service is amazing!
Syed Raza (Shahrukh)
Amazing ice cream place. Not only are there a ridiculous amount of flavors but they also give you as many sample tastes as you want.
Laurie Markowski
Best ice cream in the city! This place has a great atmosphere to boot the service is great! I highly recommend that if you are in the area you go there!

Always a great experience coming here! Love the way they change up the decor based on worldly news. This is a never fail place.
Kinga Kochanowski
Amazing atmosphere! The decorations are always changing and don’t get me started on the service! All around recommend!
Hallie Funk
Super friendly staff. We were given samples upon entering 💕and while hanging out in the chairs outside the same gentleman came out and gave us water because of the heat ☀️ a great place for a cold tasty treat🍦 …
Jon Hall
Amazing ice cream, a huge selection, and super friendly staff makes this my absolute favorite place for ice cream. Cash only, so plan accordingly.
B Smith
Fantastic ice cream, amazing staff. So welcoming and makes you feel like family. Coming here made my day!

Cindy Yang
Huge selection of flavors. Creamy and fresh ingredients! Friendly staff
Jon Rohan
Decent Ice cream, really expensive for what you get. Decor is awesome.
Loula Merkel
Best ice cream on the planet! And incredibly warm service. You can tell that the owner is really in the business of spreading joy - through ice cream.
Beth Hillman
Great sweet shop with folk art decor and amazing service and ice creams. They play funky music and have a club sort of ambiance.
Mattie Newgent
SO communist chic! love it here so much. good flavors and the playfully snarky comments from the employees are free <3
Rodolfo Gomez
Some of the best ice cream in the city. The decor and atmosphere are uniquely, second to none!
Jenny I.
The BESTEST Ice cream in the US! Every time I hit up Chicago I have to pop in for a cone! You'll LOVE it!
Shamsi cynthia53
On rare instances you find a place that just has fabulous ice cream this is one of them don't miss out it's an unassuming little place with a couple of chairs outside but it's excellent ice cream
Gabrielle Foster
Delicious ice cream🤤🤤🤤!!!!!Great experience, The ice cream was great but the customer service was over the top! We live a distance but we will be back …
janina l
Our first time there was waited on by Ania great customer service she was very friendly in helping us decide what flavors met our needs we will be back again soon , Large selection with many delicious flavors to choose from
Mari Tomizawa
The scooped ice cream is great and I love the vibes, but the milk shake was horrid. It was basically milk. Would not recommend.
Stephen S
This is one of the coolest ice cream spots in the Chicago area! Awesome flavors and cool atmosphere! Definitely a must!
Rania Hussein

A true gem, a place everyone should go at least once, staffed by kind individuals who will treat you as human and worthy of real connection
Craig Davis
Super friendly employees, amazing and delicious ice cream choices....outrageously indulgent cone options....love this place!
Alex Delvaux
Awesome flavors and service. The guy at the counter was super friendly. A tad bit pricey, but good quality. CASH ONLY but there is a bank down the street.

Seriously, the best ice cream on the planet. The hot fudge and whipped cream alone are worth the visit. I highly recommend the "Fat Elvis" ice cream.
