Great Spots in Frisco to Get Ice Cream

Some of my fondest childhood memories include going for ice cream with my parents on a hot summer day. I remember always picking the Bubble Gum flavor and looking ridiculous afterward because my mouth would be stained blue from all the ice cream. My parents didn’t care how messy I got or how silly I looked. The only things that mattered were the conversations we had and the memories that followed.

So, I guess it should come as no surprise that I’m carrying on the tradition with my family. Living in Frisco allows us to pick from a wide array of ice cream restaurants and today I’m sharing three of my family's favorites with you.

Andy’s Frozen Custard

For a fun outdoor experience, head to Andy’s Frozen Custard (there are 3 Frisco locations!). Their walk-up service window has a pleasant, retro vibe and the entire restaurant is made of transparent windows. This allows customers the opportunity to see the giant custard machines hard at work, and since Andy’s custard is made directly on site it’s always served within the hour it was made. Talk about fresh! They also have a drive-thru option which means you can swing by after work or take the kids for a treat without having to leave the comfort of your own car. It doesn’t get any more convenient than that.

Cow Tipping Creamery

Cow Tipping Creamery is on a mission to revolutionize soft serve with their famous “Stackers”. Picture this, soft-serve ice cream layered between delicious exotic toppings. Its kind of like a parfait but Stackers are far more life-changing. The best part, all of their toppings are made in-house. Sure, they have your average sprinkles but if youre feeling a little crazy dont hesitate to ask for those funfetti cake chunks. Trust me, theyre delicious. Afterward, dont forget to burn off some calories by exploring the rest of The Star and enjoying the Dallas Cowboys-themed campus.

iCream Cafe

When you walk into iCream Café it might feel a little like youre in the middle of a science experiment. Why? Because all their ice cream is made from liquid nitrogen machines. Maybe Im just a nerd but when you combine science and food I think its pretty awesome. You pick any ingredients on the menu and let the liquid nitrogen work its magic. It puts on quite the show and dont be surprised if you find yourself watching the process. Also, lets say for some hypothetical reason youre not in the mood for ice cream, they offer shakes, yogurt, and hot pudding too.

 

So, there you have it, folks. Some of the most unique ice cream restaurants in Frisco. Do you have a personal favorite? Id love to hear it in the comments below.
