Went here again on Wednesday June 24th 2026 with my parents, and a few friends for a delicious treat of ice cream! This time, while the place was still somewhat busy, we were able to park out in the parking lot. Once we did that, we decided what we wanted. Cashier was pleasant. This time I ordered Coffee chocolate chip with cotton candy explosion in a cup. My mom ordered a cup of orange creamsicle, and my dad ordered a cup with creamsicle and chocolate. I enjoyed the coffee chocolate chip with cotton candy, and my parents also enjoyed theirs. we sat outside eating our ice cream on the tables outside. read more

Everything is so delicious! I wanted a scoop of everything, but I only could try 4 flavors over my 4 day trip - Butter Pecan, Peanut Butter Puddle, Banana Peanut Butter Ripple, and Strawberry Cheesecake. They even have a non-dairy menu (made with oat milk), which I should have gotten, but I like to live dangerously. They even have a drive thru! Where was Bruster's when I was a little girl? read more

I have been to Bruster's before, but out of state. My kids loved the dirt and Dino sundaes when they were little. Yesterday I got mint chocolate chip on a cake cone. The ice cream was good, but very soft for hand scooped. Maybe it was the heat? A small is too scoops, so that's a plus. Server was robotically friendly, and the drive-thru line went all the way out to the street. The cake cone was incredible. Don't know how or why, but it was one of the best I have ever had. read more

Just stopped at this location at 9:35 pm for some ice cream we love. The experience ordering was great (I was even offered a sample.) But the second window for pick up...no thank you. We ordered to go with tops and when my husband reminded the new server she was rude. After she bagged it and opened the window to pass it out I gave her a very friendly "Thank you" and she SLAMMED the window shut in my face. Not sure if I will be back. Manners and customer service should be reviewed. read more

Freshly made ice cream with rotating flavors. You can check their website and get text alerts for your favorite flavors when available. (Not always accurate). Thursday is 1/2 price banana split, just bring a banana...cost you a lot for than $4 for it! They also have "pup cups" for your pooch. Vanilla nice cream with dog biscuit on it. Great locals spot. read more

Very very disappointed!! I literally can only get Bruster's when I'm in Myrtle Beach and was really looking forward to it just to pull into the driveway at 9:09pm to be told "We're closed" when Google clearly says closes at 10:00pm on Friday and Saturday. Poor customer service! Their excuse was that the register was closed... Should've just offered us a scoop on the house for the inconvenience. And it's the holidays!!! Booooooo!!!! read more

Amazing ice cream and service! Super cute little place we visited on vacation! Let us try many flavors. read more

Bruster's Real Ice Cream - Ice cream sundae - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

Our ideal lunch we've been on vacation for a week and it was going to be dessert for lunch. What is better for lunch than ice cream; well how about an ice cream sundae. We had a peanut butter Resses and a hot fudge sundae. It soothed our souls and lunch was heavenly Would suggest doing dessert at least once in a while as it makes a great day even better. read more

Bruster's got it goin' on! This is a small chain of ice cream stores, but this location is the only franchise in the greater Myrtle Beach area. It has a drive thru and about 15-20 ice cream flavors available at any given time. Be sure to ask them if they have any flavors that aren't listed on the board because sometimes they do. There's parking for maybe 10 cars or so and be aware that on warm days/evenings, this place can get really, really crowded. They specialize in their own homemade ice cream and of course do waffle and sugar cones, shakes, sundaes, splits, all that stuff. You can request "Jimmy's" if you want as well. I posted several pics that will show pricing and available menu items. Take note that a regular sized waffle cone is quite large and could easily be shared by a loved one...it's a lot of ice cream for sure. Mostly teenagers working here, just like so many other ice creameries I've visited and that's totally fine. I've always found them to be friendly here. Good ice cream for pretty decent prices (they're definitely still making their money, to be sure). A regular waffle cone runs about 5 bucks after tax and small sundaes start at like $4.59 pre tax and go up from there as sizes go up. read more

Delicious! I was excited to see that waffle cones were offered in different sizes...small was perfect for me!

TERRIBLE SERVICE!!!! been coming here for years but this summer these people are so rude, even the seasoned people are being rude this year. I sat and tried to enjoy my ice cream while all the employees angrily shouted out every order and slammed the window behind them, even when people would still be talking. I don't know if it was just an off night, but I feel like I have been receiving this kind of attitude all summer. I'll just get my quart and come back every few weeks instead of coming for the multi-week summer trips I usually loved to take. Please fix your costumer service please! again unfortunately the ice cream is amazing :( read more

Used to really love coming here, but the last few times haven't been the best. Today I found two hairs in my ice cream and immediately had to throw out my $6 waffle cone. The staff is usually pretty nice but the ice cream isn't the best, it's too soft and some of the chocolate flavors are pretty bland, and after my experience today with the hairs I probably won't be back again. read more

After a hot weather ride around the area on our motorcycles, we needed something to cool us down. First thing that came to mind was a tall root beer float! For that you have to have some fresh made ice cream and Brusters is the place to go. They have around 24 flavors of ice cream, yogurt, sorbet, sherbet and Italian ices on the menu. They make their ice cream in house so it's not some shipped in flash frozen stuff and you can taste the difference. Especially in a root beer float, the ice cream has to be thick and creamy to hold its taste in the float. We have also had their ice cream cups and cones which are very flavorful. I was told that they also will cater ice cream parties at residential and commercial locations which is a cool idea. They also have a rewards program app with which you can build up points for money off your purchases there. If you are looking for a sweet, cool treat, this is the place to go! read more

Best ice cream at the beach! Definitely worth the drive. Recommend check which flavors are available before you go

Milkshakes were milk and not shakes. I don't think they mixed them long enough as the middle was solid and tops were milky. For the price it was not worth it. read more

I was looking for a dairy free option and the dairy free vanilla ice cream did not disappoint. It was really good. I will definitely go back again. read more

The ice cream was amazing! I had the vegan chocolate and strawberry and both were delicious, you wouldn't know they were dairy free. My photo is of a small 2 scoop! Huge portions! My son had the mint brownie sundae and he was in heaven! No masks here, we were the only customers wearing them. It is a walk up window outside so for some that's ok. The staff is all behind windows and they remain closed, just pass payment under the window so really no reason for them to wear masks inside their bubble. As long as you don't want to stick around to eat, we felt safe enough at this family owned gem. read more

Can't believe they are not using gloves while handling food! Stopped in for a cone and saw that no one was using gloves!! Scooped and served us bare handed! read more

I think this ice cream is the best. You are also able to sign up for your favorite and then get notifications when it is made. The special flavors go fast so you need to go with hours or risk being sold out. The pistachio is one of my favorites with creamy pistachio ice cream and chunks of salty pistachio nuts throughout. My all time favorite is Graham Central Station Buttery flavored Graham cracker crust swirls and chocolate flakes in a sweet, homemade graham ice cream. Deliciousness Station!!!!! read more

A trip to visit friends in Myrtle Beach would never be complete without a visit to Brusters. It does not matter that is winter, my husband is an ice cream aficionado and Brusters always receives high marks. On this trip, he picked up 3 quarts of ice cream - butter pecan, chocolate and vanilla. It is not inexpensive; the 3 quarts costs $31.46. It was all so creamy and delicious. We will be back! read more

So delicious! Such a wonderful selection. Great staff that was very helpful. Awesome outside area to sit and enjoy the night! read more

Good ice cream! Nice servers, glad we tried Bruster's. I had the peanut butter sundae, so good!

The ice cream flavors board had me unable perplexed upon first glance, and second then third. Fortunately, a fairly long line was in place before me allowing for extra time to process the names in an effort to determine what may be handed to me from beyond the glass doors. Turtle, Oreo Cookie Dough, Salted Carmel Something, I'm really not an ice cream enthusiasts but I dare say I didn't recognize more than two flavors and with an ever growing line behind me, the idea of a sample drifted rapidly into the din. I wimped out on a daring choice and ordered a Coffee ice cream as I'd had not a single cup all day which I enjoyed but left no 'wow' factor as the rest of masses seemed to be experiencing. The drive thru option really had me internally chuckling to myself a bit. I mean, if that's not the ultimate form of laziness, I'm not sure what is. read more

I love that they even have sugar free options that don't taste like garbage. Really good spot to grab desert.

Best ice cream around fresh & creamy good portions, and excellent service even has a drive-through

normally I love Bruster's! Actually I drove through last night as well. Tonight I ordered a hot fudge brownie sundae with mint chocolate chip ice cream. When I pulled to the window I paid $7 and some odd cents. Then I was handed a 16oz drinking cup that held the contents of my Sunday. I told the cashier had I known ahead of time that a Sundae was going to come in a 16oz drinking cup I would have never ordered it. She said the distributor is out of the sundae cups. Okay, well I think they should let the patrons know prior to ordering that they're not going to get a traditional Sundae when they order one. actually this was not an enjoyable Sundae to eat because all of the contents were in layers. The brownies were on the bottom then the ice cream then all of the hot fudge then the whip cream so in essence I ate it in sections which is not how I think about eating a hot fudge brownie sundae! Rip off and incorrect marketing. A little communication will go a long way! And by the way they had the sundae cups last night when I ordered. So I was expecting the same tonight. read more

Spent $20 on icecream tonight....I wanted real icecream and figured this would be the best option. I ordered two milkshakes and a regular wafflecone. Within 2 seconds of it coming through the drive thru window it was almost completely melted. It melted so fast that I couldn't keep up. I had to give up and hold it out of the window of my Jeep in order to not have a puddle of chocolate in my lap. I did however end up with a MESS all over my dress AND all over the side of my Jeep. Premium scooped icecream is supposed to be at least HARD when it comes out of the window. Mine was melting before it even passed through the window. Very very disappointed! I won't be back. I will return back to sonic for my icecream as usual. read more

Great service & excellent ice cream! I love everything here! Especially the banana split!

We went here tonight after being disappointed by Painters. Bruster's blows Painters away! They have your usual hard ice cream staple flavors, but also some nice unique ones. I had the banana chocolate chip and it blew my mind. It didn't taste like imitation banana...it tasted like there were some actual bananas in there! And the chocolate chips were those big flakes, not little chips, so it was awesome. My wife had the turtle ice cream (the chocolate one, not the white chocolate option) and the caramel was incredibly gooey and ooey and she had to grab a dish because it was sliding right out of the cone. My mother had the tiramisu and she really enjoyed hers. I didn't try it since I'm not a fan of coffee-flavored anything. The waffle cone was pretty light and tasty, and had that sweet, vanilla-y taste to it that I simply love. We had went to the website earlier, and for signing up for e-mails we got a coupon that was good for a free sugar cone with the purchase of a waffle cone, so that was almost a BOGO coupon. The prices in general were fair...my "small" waffle cone cost $3.60 something plus tax, and was by no means small at all, so you definitely get your money's worth. The place had quite a few benches and tables set up outside, and a drive-thru, but there is no where to sit inside, so you will be exposed to the elements (rain and bugs) when eating. There are a ton of flavor options available at one time, and the menu changes daily, so you will never get to try every flavor they can make. A little bit of info I learned is that if there is a particular flavor you like, you can call 24 hours ahead of time and they will make sure that flavor will be available to you when you go the next day. read more

Good ice cream, a lot to choose from, friendly and fast service! What more could you ask for? read more

We order all of our ice cream cakes from Brusters. Much better than brands and we love that we can have the cakes customized to exactly what we want. The staff also is very allergy aware and my family is comfortable getting ice cream here even with lots of food allergies. My father tells everyone they have the best banana splits he's had in a long time! read more

The ice cream here is smooth and delicious. Probably some of the best ice cream I've ever had. This ice cream is one of the closest things I've had to Italian gelato in the sense that they put the actual flavors directly into the ice cream. For example I got a small waffle come with pistachio and coconut chip. They actually put pistachios in the ice cream and on top. It was amazing! I'd highly recommend this place. It's worth the drive from the beach. read more

I took my moosey here because i always brag to here that this place ROXS!!! the fudge sundaes are back FUDGE YEAH BABY!!!! so we got one to share because i don't have thumbs and she has hooves. But it was a delicious sundae and i ate it with my honey. this place is packed in the summer and even busy in the winter time because the apple dumpling rock my socks off. its a must come to during hours and worth the wait. read more

Old school style ice cream in a comfortable walk-up reminiscent of long ago. Prices aren't old school though but aren't extreme. Service is fast and friendly but seating isn't enough to handle the demand in the summer. More selection than DQ (across the street) and really fresh. Bring the dog and get a doggy treat. read more

We've stopped by Bruster's a couple times this week after dinner. We tried waffle cones and sundaes each time. They did not disappoint!

Better than Custard!! They offered the BEST ice cream I've ever had, and I'm from the dairy state (WI). Bravo, well done and the prices are unbelievable. P.S- Bring your own bananas and get half off their banana sundae. read more

Just tried this place for the first time. Excellent homemade ice cream. I had a black raspberry small waffle cone. Sweet, creamy ice cream with real black raspberries in it. Also purchase a pint of maple walnut to take home. Have yet to try it. The server was super nice and even provided a BOGO free coupon she had. The prices were no more than we were use to paying back home and this was homemade. $4.19 for a generous small in a waffle cone. A pint of ice cream was $8 and change. Excellent place. Can't go wrong. They make ice cream cakes too. read more

Always great friendly service ! Best ice cream in the area ! Take your Doggie for a special treat ..

Very good homemade ice cream. Very family and pet friendly. Always packed with people but worth a trip.
