    Right off 98 is this grand little outdoor seated ice cream parlor. They have plenty of shade, so you won't get fried as you eat. They have so much to choose from, so I suggest looking at the menu before you get there. It only took a maximum of 10 minutes from when we arrived to when we got our sweet treats. If you are in Destin and need to cool off, I suggest Brusters!

    Menu as of 7/22/24

    My husband and I stopped in for a sweet treat after dinner. While he typically loves Brusters, I'm not a huge fan as the ice cream is just ok in my opinion. I just wanted a single scoop. Guess what, they don't offer a single or kids scoop, so you must get two scoops. That's just too much ice cream in my opinion. My husband ordered a blast and it typically is filled to the top. Tonight he had an inch and a 1/2 of empty space in his cup and there was hardly any candy in his blast. Tonight was a huge disappointment. We typically visit multiple times while on our beach trips, but this year will be a one be done for us.

    Well known ice cream spot I heard. We picked up a bday ice cream cake and it was heavy. House of 35 at it right up. Great summer treat. At night this spot has a lines but during the day not so much. Seating only outside for warning.

    Outside ice cream stand with homemade ice cream and add ins. We got the turtle, delicious creamy full of caramel and crunchy nuts chocolate and the pistachio nut so yummy on a waffle cone. The Sundays look great but ice cream so delicious. We didn't wanna cover it with all the syrups. Has picnic tables outside to enjoy your sweet treat Service quick really enjoyed the ice cream

    We stopped by yesterday after our little beach day. We loved that it was a small standing store where you just walk up and grab ice cream. Reminds me of a place back at home! SERVICE - The girl that was helping us was sooooo friendly. She was probably the nicest person we had encountered in Destin so far. She let us sample flavors, answered all of our questions, and made us feel welcomed. ICE CREAM Peanut Butter Buckeye - I love peanut butter so this flavor was a win for me. It had a good mixture of chocolate and peanut butter. Chocolate Mudslide - I thoroughly enjoyed this as it had chunks of brownie throughout it. Salted Caramel - This was on its own level of salted caramel. The caramel ribbons throughout the ice cream was perfectly soft and gooey. New York Cheesecake - Wow, there was so much crust in each bite, we loved it. Overall, all the flavors were delicious and they did a good job mixing crusts, brownies, chocolate, etc throughout their ice cream. We would absolutely come back.

    Neighborhood ice cream joint in the heart of Destin. It wasn't quite walking distance from our rental but plenty of flavor choices to choose from. Friendly staff and a large sitting area for your family.

    Ice cream. Expensive ice cream but pretty good. We got a few things. Chocolate shake was kind of disappointing as it was not sweet enough. I guess their chocolate ice cream is more chocolatey then sweet as it had the cacao notes. Brownie sundae was great, vanilla shake and cotton candy in a waffle cone all won the day. It was conveniently located for us and other than the chocolate shake snag served its purpose.

    Banana Split, Hot Fudge Brownie Sundae with coffee ice cream, and strawberry shortcake

    Some of the best ice cream I've ever had. The kids loved it too. A little pricey and the line was long but I'd say it was worth it.

    Above average on site made ice cream. Better than some others we have tried in our years of visits to Destin. Try and Enjoy.

    Every beach I must have dole whip and this place is now my go to for Destin. First it taste just…read morelike Disney, second they one upped the enjoying of dole whip pineapple to have strawberry flavor but even better you can have a swirl. Needless to say ive been visiting daily and my child refuses to share her cup. If you are a pineapple fan this is the place to visit. Also they do sell everything else from donuts, gelato, coffee but I've only tried the dole whip and love it so much I can't be distracted.

    We arrived in Florida yesterday... excited to do our routine, we settled in. Our first night we…read moreenjoyed dinner at a local place then headed to Cups and Cones for Gelato. MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE! But this time they had flavors such as blood orange, butter pecan, lemon and birthday cake. Well my favorite in gelato is Chocolate, so needless to say I was hesitant to choose. Seeing a large tub of sample spoons NEXT TO THE GELATO CASE, I asked if I could try a sample of birthday cake. An older gentleman waiting on us stated," I'm sorry we don't do that, those days are long gone..." I was shocked and over all VERY disappointed. i could not understand why the spoons are setting next to the case and why they didn't do samples? I didn't need a soup ladle full of gelato geeze, just enough to ensure I liked it. The entire dessert part of our evening was ruined... my husband didn't get anything I ended up settling for Pineapple dole whip simply because I KNEW I liked it. We will not return to this establishment. Best of luck to those who do.
