Delicious my husband and I came by Friday afternoon for a sweet treat and absolutely loved it! He got the cookie butter topping with sweet cream and brownie swirl soft serve. I chose to go a bit more simple and got sweet cream soft serve with cookie crumbles and sprinkles! The shop is small, but we were easily able to maneuver around with other folks waiting for their orders to be completed and for us to place ours. It was also nice to see plenty of folks outside and in the surrounding areas also enjoying their sweet treats from this new soft serve ice cream shop. we plan to be back soon. read more

New Shoes Soft Serve - Sweet cream with cookie crumbles and sprinkles - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Homewood, Alabama

I don't understand the hype... Waited in a long line to try basic soft serve with names that were made for marketing rather than reality. read more

I've been wanting to try this place since it opened, and it did not disappoint! We got the 'Chez Fun Fun' which was a coconut soft serve with toppings and it was really good. The soft serve is rich and creamy. The menu changes every month with new specialty flavors, which is fun. The staff was super nice and helpful. The inside is pretty small with no where to sit but there are chairs outside. I want to come back and try more flavors! read more

First time here and it did not disappoint. The soft serve is fresh and you can tell. The strawberries pretty sweet but very good! The pretzel crumble was salty and crunchy! A perfect blend with the sweet strawberry syrup. I think the only thing that could make it better is freeze dried strawberries inside the pretzel crumble! The spoons are awesome (changes color with temperature). Small corner shop but it works! The branding sounds like a shoe store so glad my friend I went with knew about it because I wouldn't think this was an ice cream place from the name of the soft serve ice cream shop. Friendly staff. Clean shop! read more

New Shoes Soft Serveis a great place for soft serve ice cream if you are in the Homewood, Alabama area. It is not a big location, but it was bright and cheerful. The service was extremely friendly. I went with the Dubai, which was simply incredible. I would definitely recommend a visit to New Shoes Soft Serve. read more

Fantastic! And what a hole in the market??? The only other place I can think to get soft serve is a fast food restaurant! My mom and I came a couple days after their official opening - I think there was a line out the door for several days straight! This spot has great energy. Lots of kids, young parents, a very neighborhood vibe. Great location, too. Right on the main drag in Homewood. Now, to the bread and BUTTER. The vanilla cone dipped in brown butter is a MUST. TRY. I think they're planning on a monthly menu of specialties. My mom had the dubai, which looked incredible. I had the mango sticky rice which was also outstanding. The ice cream is delicious, smooth, light, flavorful. I'll be back! read more

This place was packed but the line moved fast. The inside of the store is pretty small so don't be scared of a line. I really appreciated how the employees knew exactly what to do for a gluten allergy. They were super helpful. And the brownie batter flavor IS gluten free which is nice because I'm not a vanilla fan They were out of the mango sticky rice flavor my friend wanted so she was sad about that I got a chocolate cup with chocolate shell and Dulce de leche. It was $8.80 for a pretty small cup. I honestly was not a fan. It didn't have much sweetness to it but was really rich. Tasted like coconut kinda. Even though the portion was small - ish for the price I couldn't finish it because it was so rich. It wasn't a typical ice cream experience but I could see how people like this place. This was a true 3 star experience for me and I wouldn't come back but I feel like 3 stars is low simply for personal preference so I give 4 read more

New Shoes is the perfect addition to Birmingham this summer season! They have different flavors of soft-serve, toppings, and dunking options. I got the premade Dubai chocolate sundae and it was delicious. They didn't skimp out on the pistachio at all, it was perfect! There was a bit of a line when I got there but it moved quickly. It is takeout with a bench outside to sit at. I'm excited to go back and try more flavors. read more

New Shoes Soft Serve - Dubai Chocolate - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Homewood, Alabama

It took a couple different visits before we officially got to try one of the hottest spots in Bham right now. There were evenings we went by New Shoes and the line stretched forever, we heard people were waiting up to 50 minutes. I have been a fan of Wil Drake and Hero Doughnuts so I knew his new soft serve concept would not disappoint. We got a low top cone dipped in the browned butter and maldon and a cup of vanilla sweet cream with fruity pebbles. I had no idea what maldon was but it's just salt. It made the brown butter flavor pop. The vanilla soft serve with fruity people's was just as good. The ice cream is soft and pillowy like a soft serve should be. read more

I often hoped that Homewood would open an ice cream shop in that area. I'm definitely pleased! New shoes sits on a perfect corner, but the inside is very small. You are able to try samples which made my decision pretty hard because I loved the blueberry and mango flavors. I decided to get the Dubai Cup from their menu because it was seasonal. I wasn't a fan of that specific cup because it was very chocolate heavy and not as much pistachio flavor as I hoped. The girls behind the counter were so sweet and helpful. I'll definitely be back but I'll design my own for sure! read more

Such a fun new addition to Homewood. Be ready to wait in line, but it's worth the wait! They have a great variety of flavors and toppings for all ages. Perfect for a sweet treat after dinner or a Saturday afternoon pick-me-up. read more

The new hotspot in Homewood! With a line all the way down the block, this soft serve is worth waiting for!

Great new soft serve in Homewood. They have lots of flavors options but the vanilla is my favorite! I heard the coconut cream is great. Looking forward to getting back by to try it. read more

New Shoes is a great addition to Homewood. I love that it's soft serve--it's hard to find good soft serve these days, and there really aren't many places around Birmingham offering it. The flavors are unique and fun, but you can still get the classics. The vanilla was my personal favorite, and my kids absolutely loved it too. The line can get pretty long, especially during busy times, but it moves much faster than it looks. The quality is worth the wait. If you're looking for something different from the usual ice cream shops, this is definitely a spot to check out. We'll definitely be back. read more

The line was crazy, long but well worth the wait. It did move along pretty well. They were pretty efficient at making everyone's ice cream. I got the Dubai chocolate and my wife got the strawberry pretzel and they were both amazing. Would definitely go here again for ice cream. Can't wait to see what other flavors they come up with. read more

Soft serve the best I've ever had!!! I got birthday cake soft serve with the browned butter and maldon sea salt shell. Incredible. read more

New Shoes just opened and when I came at 8:30 on a Tuesday night there was a line halfway down the block! I can't imagine how busy it gets on weekends. I had really high hopes for this place because we got a taste of Will Drake's ice cream creations at hero donuts briefly. For a short time they served life changing frozen custard that would also come in shape of a nitro coffee float. It was addictive and amazing. I sadly saw there would be no frozen custard at new shoes but hoped the other ice cream would be just as good. I thought it was good but nothing amazing, and not worth the price tag or wait. The chocolate shell in my Dubai was very nice. There should have been more pistachio flavor and more kadayif. The pistachio paste was too sweet and didn't taste like pistachio. I think this would've have been tastier with a pistachio flavor ice cream because vanilla has nothing to do with Dubai chocolate. Overall I'm glad new shoes is here in Homewood but not sure if I care enough about it to go back. My suggestion would be to please bring back the frozen custard and nitro floats! read more

Some of the best soft serve! I got the cake batter, it wasn't overly sweet and had a great flavor. Tried a bit of the strawberry and it was very fresh and refreshing. MUST try the salted brown butter dip for the cones. Everyone was so nice and so helpful! I will definitely be back! read more

Mango sticky rice was refreshing, creamy, and perfectly sweet. The Dubai chocolate was rich, fudgy, and super creamy with great chocolate flavor. Both were amazing, but the mango sticky rice was the favorite. 10/10. read more
