A nice local ice cream store that's great for a family outing. Clare's is in a small convenient area on East North Street. This good ice cream shop is in proximity to other restaurants that's ideal for dessert after a meal. Personally, I'd go in the summer time after a haircut (Julio's best barber in Greenville). Prices aren't bad at all. In 2025, anytime you can get ice cream for well under $10 is a win in my book. Quality of ice cream is good. Not the largest variety, but they have a seasonal menu. The honey lavender flavor is one of my favorites and one that I'd get the next time I go back. My only complaint is one time I went and they closed at 8:20pm when the sign says they close at 9pm. Perhaps it was a one time thing that it happened. Every time I've been, I've consistently seen young family present with their children. If you're looking for a family orientated place with well priced ice cream, this place is for you. read more

Clare's Creamery - Honey Lavender | Birthday Cake - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

Fun vibes. Not kitschy and not too trendy. Texture of ice cream was lovely. Nice cake come. Perfect for an afternoon treat.

My husband and I drove my kids 5 hours down to Greenville to visit my sister and her boyfriend and decided on ice cream as dessert after a late lunch. We came in as a party of 8 and thoroughly enjoyed the ice cream here. The entire space is clean, cute with simple but aesthetically pleasing decor, and the service here was great. We got a variety of sundaes to single and double scoops in waffle cones, sugar cones and in a cup. My sister and I shared the Banana Split and it was truly my favorite Banana Split in a long while. There really is nothing you cannot love at Clare's Creamery! read more

it's a rather small creamery and parking can get tight in the area, just an FYI. There's lots of neat flavors and lots of typical ones too. They make their own cones, at least some of them in house. They have banana splits and brownies, sundaes along with regular traditional scoop, and cups of ice cream. There's strawberry ice cream was delicious. I really enjoyed the chocolate chip with hot fudge. We'll definitely be coming back here again. It can get pretty busy here from what I see so get ready for long lines. There is seating inside, but it can be limited if it's busy so just another FYI. Good prices. Good service. read more

The icecream was delicious and the 2 girls working were the sweetest!!! We will definetly return, the next time we are in town!

What more can you want from an ice cream shop? Locally owned Super cute inside Friendly staff (can I get you a sample?) Unique flavors High quality ingredients Freshly made ice cream I had the two scoop Sunday with cookies and cream and chocolate caramel brownie and topped it off with whipped cream and a cherry! It was delicious but I think I have to go workout and the gym tonight now! Enjoy the goodness my friends! read more

Their ice cream is all gluten-free unless it has an obvious additive like a cookie in it. It's delicious. It's exceptionally creamy. I had the honey lavender and mint chocolate chip and was so pleased. They had milkshakes and sundaes as well as ice cream and multiple flavors. The ambience is so cute. It has picnic tables outside as well as some seating inside. Friendly service. Highly recommend. read more

Cute ice cream shop with tasty ice cream and fast, friendly service! I really loved that they had a good variety of flavors without the list being overwhelming, you're able to sample as many flavors as you like toon We had a great experience at Clare's and would definitely stop back by in the future! read more

The premium local ice cream of Greenville sits in a shopping center on the edge of town with indoor and outdoor seating. Their menu was large and included a few vegan flavors. I was a bit puzzled that all of their sundaes and things were listed as being made only with vanilla ice cream, though presumably if you asked for something else it wouldn't be a big deal. I sample a mint chip and a raspberry chip (I like chocolate chips). While mint is my jam, theirs was oddly muted in flavor. The raspberry, conversely, exploded with tartness and unexpected herbal notes. My ice cream was also remarkably resistant to melting. This was a thick, rich cream. While the mint didn't really do it for me, there were definitely plenty of flavors worth trying. read more

Clare's Creamery - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

Let's simplify this: Every couple has their "thing". Since we travel for work, my wife and going for ice cream in every new city is our "thing". So its not just about the ice cream, its the full experience: #1 Quality #2 Service #3 Atmosphere #4 is Price Quality. I had a Honey Lavender, Chocolate Peanut Butter, & Caramel Fudge Brownie ice cream in a freshly made waffle cone (I like to go big or go home). I enjoyed the consistency because it wasnt super airy like the ones you would taste from the freezer section at walmart (yuck). The less airy or "fluffy" it is, typically the easier it is to get a good sense of the actual flavor. The flavors were pretty good and so much so, that returned the next day to get more. Service. Both days we went they were packed with a line thatbpractically went out the door. Despite so many people in one place, the employees had the urgency to provide quick service but were also patient with us considering how new we were to their shop. They gladly offer samples of any of their flavors which is perfect for first-timers who are unsure what to choose from. Atmosphere. Both nights we went were quite crowded but still everything was pretty nice. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Everything is kept clean. I thought the flower-shaped tables in front of the bench seats were fixated to the ground and at almost the cost of my 3-scoop Ice Cream I thankfully found out they're not. Price. We paid $12.84 before the tip. Final thoughts: I give it a 4 only because though it was exceptional, it didnt knock my socks off. A couple of the flavors seemed to have a little more of a milky taste (i.e. Honey Lavender & Honey Vanilla, while Coffee & Cream tasted more like cream than coffee). There seems to be a clear split in taste in Greenville between Clare's and Jeni's. You either love one or the other but I think in Greenville, Clare's is definitely the town favorite. read more

Ice cream was creamy and delicious. They had a nice selection of flavors and I hope to go back for more. Service was quick. Seating was limited and parking even more so. There's a parking lot across the street at a church where most people were parking. read more

Eden was so welcoming when I walked into their store. That's what I call great customer service.

This place my boyfriend and I found out about and whenever we crave ice cream...(one or twice every two weeks) we go to Clare's creamery! Although it has started to get busy, the service has always been excellent! So many flavors to choose from and workers are always so so nice! This place is my desert hot spot this summer! (summer of 2023) My go to is one scoop of teddy graham and one scoop of chocolate chip cookie dough! Delicious! They have many different flavors and toppings to choose from as well as many cup sizes and waffle cones! read more

This place is the cutest. Small but inviting. The girls here were so sweet and we were able to try samples. They do also have a little water station if you need it. I got the trio-honey vanilla, chocolate, and the orange creamsicle. I wish I would of skipped the chocolate and got the banana. The chocolate was good but super thick and rich for me. The banana was really good. Honey vanilla tasted so fresh and the orange creamsicle really tasted like the real thing. I'll definitely be back! read more

Clare's Creamery - Trio with chocolate, orange creamsicle, and honey vanilla - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

Always smells of delicious waffle cones- such a great way to embrace all the yumminess before even picking a flavor. My personal fave right now is the honey lavender topped with hot fudge. My son is more of a banana ice cream with Oreo cookies. The decor is very "ice cream shop", flower petal tables, and an outdoor area. It's perfect in my book. I also really appreciate they have a water station available for their customers that's complimentary. read more

We tried raspberry chocolate chip, Texas honey pecan, honey vanilla, and strawberry, which was our favorite. All the flavors were yummy and reasonably priced. read more

After reading so many rave reviews on Google and Yelp, we came in to try some different flavors. The place is super cute and the employees were very nice. Ordered 4 flavors in total and we're excited to sit down and get wowed. Unfortunately none of the different flavors had any ... well... flavor. They were all bland. We tried each others scoops and everyone agreed there was little flavor between them. So bland we ended throwing them away mostly uneaten, which is a cardinal sin for ice cream lovers. Not sure where the disconnect is between our experience and the overwhelmingly amazing reviews, but I doubt we'll be back :-( read more

Best Dairy free ice cream ever. Get the coconut and the chocolate. The best treat ever!

We absolutely love this place. Greenville seems to be split between Clare's and Jeni's for ice cream but we've always been team Clare's! We always bring out-of-town guests and they always rave about it - so much so we've even come back for a second visit during their stays. I've never had trouble getting a spot right out front, but there's also the entire church parking lot across the street. Variety of flavor and tons of seasonal flavors to change things up. Lots of yummy vegan options too which is important for family with restrictions. Anyone complaining about how bland their flavors were must have not asked for a sample first. Seems like an easy fix to me! read more

Clare's Creamery - a hand holding a cup of ice cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Greenville, South Carolina

We came by for their celebration of ice cream for breakfast day. It was 31° outside, but we waited in line outdoors to get the chance to try the ice cream, and it was worth it. The service was fast and friendly and the selection of different ice creams was very impressive! They even had a really great selection of non-dairy! I got the trio, which I think was the best value since I got to try three different excellent flavors! I tried the coconut non-dairy, which was absolutely delicious. I think I could eat an entire container of it! The honey lavender was also delicious with the herbiness and the sweetness perfectly balanced. The raspberry chocolate chip was okay. It would have been fantastic, except I had a lot of ice particles in mine, which just so happens to be something I take a lot of issue with. The location had ample parking across the street, and there were a few tables to sit at inside. Very cute, and I will definitely go back read more

They have a great choice of ice creams and some seasonal flavors like honey lavender! Definitely would like to come in to try. Waffle cones were $1 extra, just so you all know. I wish they were a little more thicker. The ice cream was good but it wasn't amazing. It tasted a little more icy than creamy to me. I'm sure they will continue to work on their creams. I will definitely come back to support. They have some sundaes that look fantastic! read more

Really outstanding ice cream, and my requirements are high! Clean, retro place; parking and easy to get to.

Lovely little ice cream spot. The person working was very accommodating with the little kids I brought in. Samples were handed out and very tedious requests about the colour of the spoons were handled in stride. Sadly a bit out of my usual path, but I plan to return. They have dairy free options! read more
