Craving some yummy ice cream? I turned to Google and Yelp to see what locals and visitors had to say about the best spots. Check out the ranking from 1st to 5th.

1. The STIL - 4.8 out of 5 stars with 1,131 Google reviews
786 W Broad St, Boise, ID 83702 - (208) 809-8888
Website: https://ilovethestil.com/
"The Sweetest Things In Life - Ambitious flavors, creative pairings, award winning concept"
Real Google Reviews from locals: Jerry "Stopped in to grab some ice cream and it is defiantly not the ordinary ice cream shop. all of there ice cream is made in the shop and each one has it's own unique awesome flavor. If there was a 6 star rating I would definitely say that they earned it. Keep up the awesome work and amazing ice cream guys."
Aislynne "Delicious!! So many delectable flavors, plan on pondering over the menu for awhile. We tried 7 flavors and none disappointed. Customer service went above and beyond catering to my kids' "need" to not have their two flavors in a single touch by providing a cup and cone."

2. Stella's Ice Cream - 4.9 out of 5 starts with 17 Google reviews
While I know this one technically got a higher score than The Stil, there was also a big difference from 17 reviews to over 1,100.
100 N 8th St, Boise, ID 83702 - (208) 504-6993
Real Google Reviews from locals: Vanessa - "I was so excited to have a gluten free icecream cone! In the past if I wanted one I would have to make it myself. My son was overjoyed! great icecream!"
Jeremy - "Walked in and asked the guy to give me “whatever vanilla based flavor” in a cup and dannnnnggggg did he deliver!!! It looked almost blue/green but was definitely vanilla with cookies and cream PLUS cookie dough. It was lit. I had to stop my car to indulge. Anyway amazing ice cream place in downtown or anywhere for that matter! This place rocks."

Real Google Reviews from locals: Mike - "Great place in a great location, super nice people. Ice cream is really good, and doesn't seem like it has a bunch of junk in it. Their Caramel Corn is reason enough to go there. Check it out, you won't be disappointed!"
Tasnim - "Goody's Soda fountain is an ice cream, chocolate and candy ship. It is one of the main attractions in Hyde park. They have various kinds of flavors. This place seems a magical place for a child. I went there twice with my friends and enjoyed our delicious chocolate drinks. I would highly recommend this place to have a friendly gathering with the sweet desert or drink."

The variety of mixing options is absolutely amazing! You can make your own or pick one of their signature mixtures. Unlimited topping options too. So worth it!"

The Ice Cream Potato

If you're also new to the Treasure Valley, let me introduce you to the Ice Cream Potato. They do an amazing job of making it look like an actual potato but it's actually vanilla ice cream covers in cocoa, which gives it that potato look!
