Best ice cream I've had in a long time!!! We tried Cold brew & cookies and strawberry milkshake, delicious. Great conversations too, thank you read more

Yeah, it was that good!!! I had 2 scoops in a medium cup. 1 scoop of Butter Pecan (with plenty of pecans) and Salted Caramel. My son let me try his peanut chocolate!!! (What a wonderful mix of salty and sweet)!! I love that they give you the toppings on a small cup. AND they have oreo crumble read more

This is a cute Homemade Ice Cream shop with a beautiful variety of flavors. They have workers that are special needs and have special talents at encouraging wonderful flavors. They did a wonderful job with presenting their quality product. Deborah is a manager who was taking good care of ensuring quality service and products being properly informed to clientele. I loved the Chocolate as all Get out and the Peanut Butter Chocolate ice cream. The scoops were generous and the pricing is so reasonable. 10/10 homemade and you can taste it. GO HERE!!! You won't regret the smile that you leave with and the taste of fresh ice cream. read more

Ice cream for a cause! This is the cutest ice cream shop and they hire special needs employees. Besides helping to support these amazing people, you get dang good ice cream. They are known for their Dr Pepper flavor but I usually go home with a pint of that and peanut butter chocolate. They do offsite events too! read more

The chocolate as all get out was great with bits of chocolate in it. Cookies and cream was good too. It's nice the price of cup or cake cone are the same. Toppings are free, but are limited. I think there were only 4 options and they were difficult to see since they were behind the counter. Others are correct about the small portion size. At $6 for a scoop, it's the equivalent to a kids portion at other places. However, the ice cream is great, service is great, and they hire special needs adults so we don't mind paying more to support them. read more

I had a really good experience the ambiance was really nice and good service and really good ice cream like 1 million out of 10 ice cream I recommend everything read more

First of all the ice cream was terrible the workers worth mean and kept digging the ice cream with there hands never again

Good customer service. They have about eight flavors to choose from. I went with the birthday cake and cold brew ice cream. The birthday cake was okay, but my favorite is the cold brew! Small establishment with only outdoor seating. Plenty of parking and overall clean location. read more

A cute ice cream boutique with a nice selection of ice cream flavors. We got lucky to not find a crowd waiting out the door when we visited. The shop is relatively small and there is a table and two chairs for those who would like to enjoy their dessert indoors. We tried Heath, Nomster, and Peanut Butter. All very flavorful and just the right amount of creaminess. The Heath was on the sweeter side for my taste but I still enjoyed it. Service was great and the employee was so patient to allow us time to decide on what to order. I was bummed to not be able to try the Choc Chip Dr. Pepper. Next time! This spot is definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. And we will for sure be back to try the other flavors. read more

Awesome custom ice cream with many flavors and free toppings! Plus a super friendly, happy Howdy staff!

This little ice cream shop is a delight. We stopped in on a Friday at 1 pm and were greeted by two attendants behind the counter. They were super nice and patient while we decided on what to order- a small 1-scoop birthday cake for my niece and a 2-scoop of Dr. Pepper chocolate chip & butter pecan for me to share with my mom. I thought the portion sizes were quite generous, too. You know the ice cream is good when you say, "Wow," on the first bite. Plus, I love that this Dr. Pepper is unique to them. I'd go as far as saying this is better than the Blue Bell Dr. Pepper Float flavor that was recently released. Trust me when I say I've eaten a lot of ice cream in my life. This is some of the best in Texas. We lucked out that it wasn't busy because we were able to sit at the one bistro table inside. It was a cute space overall and I'm sure the outdoor seating is nice when the weather is a little less hot. This was such a treat as we were visiting from San Antonio. Wish they had a location near us! read more

$5 for this tiny scoop...4-bites and it was done. Not very flavorful and overall a complete waste of time, calories & money!!! read more

It's good, like really good. When you want ice cream, this is the place to go. I appreciate the friendly faces that greet me and offer suggestions of their favorite flavors. It was hard to choose a flavor, but that means that I will just have to return for more! Today I had the brownie points scoop on a waffle cone 10/10. read more

I am a sweets lover. This ice cream was sub par at best. It tasted very gummy and chewy, not creamy at all. The inside of the building stunk like fish. The staff were nice but the overall experience was not great at all. I had the cookie monster and there were hardly even any cookies in it. My MIL and SILs did not like theirs either. read more

Great customer service! It was our first time here. The ice cream was pretty good. Definitely want to come back here to try out other flavors. read more

Howdy homemade ice cream was a total home run! First of all the ice cream was fantastic. Different flavors like funnel cakes, Dr Pepper, strawberry milkshake, etc. make it fun to choose want to order, and the ice cream itself is creamy without ice crystals in it. The Texas praline flavor was phenomenal, my husband really likes the cold brew and the strawberry milkshake flavor. Not only does this place serve fantastic ice cream, but their commitment to helping Texans with special needs through jobs and job training it's truly remarkable. In the food industry there is so much turnover and unfortunately there can be a lot of poor customer service. This was not the case at Howdy. Very friendly, knowledgeable about the menu, a very pleasant experience indeed. When we are back in town we will definitely come back! read more

Yum. Small selection of ice-cream, but it's delicious. The perfect treat on a hot day.

We arrived one minute after closing, and the girl and boy working were just pulling the outside cart in. I will say that the ice cream was tasty, but it was the two people working who made it a special experience. They were so sweet, and we got the full southern yes Sir/Yes Ma'am service. I just love when the people make the experience. And yes, I will say it again...the ice cream was super good (esp the red velvet) but the people bring you back. read more

The 'ice cream' is more like 'ice milk'. Sweetness is there, but not the creamy part of ice cream. I understand it's a good cause, but strictly speaking about the product, it's weak. read more

I dropped off my Bunny Babe off at Summertree animal hospital which happens to be a few doors down for the weekend for eye surgery. I was full of tears and walked past Howdys for the first time and saw so many happy people standing outside eating ice cream with their families so I forced myself to walk in with tears down my face and sure enough the ice cream and the staff were so amazing! The Icecream is homemade and it was just so Good. It was so so good I had to leave a review. Must try! It's Exactly what I needed to dry these tears Try the birthday cake it will leave a big smile on your face ‍‍‍ This place is heaven sent! read more

Number one. This is a mom and pop shop. Do not expect Michelin. Mom and pop got a flavor and style. You know what I mean? Now that we got that out of the way. Number two. Do not listen to the bad reviews on here. Just haters. Number three. Ice cream was great. Unique. Loved it. And yes, the dr.pepper does taste like dr.pepper. it's not gonna taste exactly what you get out of a can. But you can definitely taste it. So whoever said it didn't taste like Dr.pepper, dun listen to them. Come. Eat. Lick. Support. read more

One and done. Paid $5 for not quite a half scoop. I could buy a full pint of Ben & Jerry's for about the same price and get better ice cream. Terrible value. read more

We love Howdy Homemade. It's a fun treat to our evenings. Service is excellent and ice cream so good. Try the Dr Pepper

The ice cream was good, the meaning behind the company is great, it's very small outdoor seating only.

RUN DONOT WALK!!!! THIS PLACE IS AMAZING!!! I am not joking with you when I say the workers here are some of the nicest employees I've come across, and all around just seemed like they LOVED their job!!! So absolutely refreshing to see!!! Now the ice cream- Oh man. Oh man oh man oh man. SO GOOD AND SO MANY FLAVORS. I'm a super healthy person and try to eat really clean. Let me tell you how quickly that went out the window. Not only did I slurp up my ice cream as fast as I possibly could, I finished off my kids ice creams they couldn't finish! I truly can't recommend this place enough!! read more

VERY disappointed. Portion size is very small. Price at $4 is quite a bit for such a small scoop Ice cream was not very creamy at all, which is why I gave such a low rating. Taste was not great also. Tastes like generic store-brand vanilla ice cream when I ordered cookies and cream I'm being very generous with a 2-star review read more

LOVED margie! she was soooo sweet and helpful! made my day!!!! definitely worth it! the flavors were soooo amazing!

BEWARE if you have any kind of nut allergy! I made a request to the manager of the shop to use a clean scoop to avoid cross contamination because of my peanut allergy. She picked up the scoop from the water pail and said "I see nothing wrong with it ". I tried explaining to her again that I needed a clean scoop due to my allergy and she responds with "We always clean the scoops". I'm unsure if she misunderstood what I was saying or if she was choosing to ignore my request. Either way, I believe that she would greatly benefit from training about allergies and having a clean pack of scoops in the back to accommodate their customers. read more

Great homemade ice cream! Very friendly and generous scoop sizes. I think the best part were their unique flavors. We tried the carrot cake, Dr. Pepper chocolate chip, banana chocolate, and Cookie monster. All of them were awesome! You can actually taste real flavors and not just pure sugar and artificial flavoring. I'd come back again for sure! read more

Wonderful homemade ice cream with a superlative mission. Had a tremendous visit with Steve and Amanda when ordering a scoop of vanilla and a scoop of chocolate. Highly recommend the exceptional service (thank you Amanda). Howdy is my go-to for the best ice cream. read more

Nice little shop, went after having dim sum and sushi next door. Ice cream was not lacking sugar, and would not have again. Always happy to support small businesses. read more

This is a very cute shop. The employees are nice and the flavors go from traditional to fun. They make the ice cream here which is definitely awesome. The bathroom was clean and I'd definitely recommend you to stop by. I tried avocado ice cream today and it was awesome. I only took off 1/2 a star for my husband wanting more actual strawberry pieces in his ice cream and our table having ice cream spots when we set down. read more

Definitely some very creamy ice cream. I had to go with the Dr Pepper flavor. If you like DP this flavor is for you. I also had to add a scoop of Creamsicle. I loved the smooth, cold taste. The ice cream was also just at the right temperature giving it the consistency of soft serve. Not being a local makes it a good thing or I would be back often to sample their ample variety of flavors. read more

Howdy Homemade Ice Cream - Desserts Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Like my grandpa used to say: the food is meh and the portions are small. Stopped by with high expectations due to rave reviews on Yelp. We ordered 6 different flavors, cones and pints to go. The only flavor we really liked was Dr Pepper chocolate chip, the rest were just OK. For the price we expected the level of Sweet Firefly, but the flavors did not stand out. In addition, the scoops were very conservative in size, the pints were seriously underfilled, and the waffles were not crispy. We wanted to love it, as for some reason DFW does not have too many really good ice cream spots (go figure why). Said that, the shop is really cute, and the staff is very nice. read more

Nice little place. The service is wonderful and eager to help. I had the Dr. Pepper chocolate chip (gonna need extra time in the gym! :-) and my date had the birthday cake. Both were wonderful. We had two scoops each and that was plenty! Sat at one of the covered outside tables while there was a light rain. So fun. We'll be back! read more

From the moment I walked in and was greeted with a friendly "Howdy", I knew this place was something special. I peeked at the ice creams and there were SO MANY good flavors it was really hard to choose. Red velvet, cheesecake, birthday cake, salted caramel, Cookie Monster. How does one decide?!? I couldn't. So I went with a double scoop of cookies and cream and chocobananas. Yum! The consistency of the ice cream was perfect. I love that you could taste that the ice cream is homemade. It was thick, creamy and smooth. It had a softness to it that I really appreciated. Besides the delicious ice cream, I loved getting to read a little about the companies mission in providing individuals with special needs an opportunity to get work experience. They had a few shirts they were selling with this description and I noticed the way that the simple menu and visual cash posted near the register provided real life modifications to make working there accesible. I hope others learn from these simple work place modifications that create equitable opportunities for all. I loved this shop and hope I get a chance to visit again! read more

very nice server! flavors were so yummy! my parents really liked the Dr. Pepper chocolate icecream!
