Amazing hidden gem right on Lake Superior behind the Fitger's building off the waterfront…read moreboardwalk. Convenient desert spot after dinner at Fitgers or as a stop on the boardwalk. Beautiful setting with ambient lighting and a fire pit outside at night. Cozy outdoor seating. High quality unique ice cream flavors. A bit pricey but worth it for for ingredients. Customer service wasn't great. The young girly seemed annoyed to be there and service was slow but we didn't let that ruin our experience. We'll be back next summer to try more flavors.

Coloring pages and yard games to keep kids entertained while enjoying the view and sweets. Pro tip- pay cash to avoid the 4% processing fee.

I had the mint chocolate chip and my husband had the sea salt caramel, both in a waffle cone. It was rich, creamy and absolutely delicious! The waffle is always a must for me and it tasted fresh and so yummy. The service was friendly and speedy! Will definitely be dropping in again!

It's not everyday I would be able to convince my friends to go on a 3+ hour drive north to Duluth for this stuff. Visited at the end of May 2025. Ordered the honey lavender and goatcheese honeycomb flavors. Again... I'm heartbroken that this place only has locations in Duluth. We asked if they are planning to open up locations in the Twin Cities and it seems to be unlikely in the near future. Their flavors also differ from each location. The staff are friendly and lets you try out as much flavors as you want before deciding which one you would like to get.

The place is clean and tidy, there was a line, but it went quickly. The team behind the counter seemed like they were working well together. The person who scooped my ice cream was friendly and offered me a cup and spoon in addition to my waffle cone. I really appreciate this since it was a hot day. The only other thing that could be better about this place is if they had one or two non-dairy ice cream options. Otherwise, great spot!

Chocolate Shoppe Duluth is truly Duluth's best ice cream…read more Try out our award winning Super Premium Ice Cream! With Gluten Free and Dairy Free options! If you enjoy chocolate ice cream then you have to try the Zanzibar Chocolate Ice cream- It is an International Award Winner for Best Chocolate Ice Cream. If you're more a caramel person then be sure to try The Bleep Just Got Serious; this flavor won 2013 for Best Ice Cream Flavor of the Year! It's salted caramel ice cream, with swirls of fudge, and cashews. Want more of a chocolaty malt flavor? Then trust Troy Johnson the host of Crave on Food Network, he loved our Malt Amore Ice Cream!

I would come here again. Apparently they just opened a few days ago (and opened a new location)…read moreand haven't acquired (or gotten running) all of their necessary equipment. Their soft serve machine and hot fudge machines were not working. Price was reasonable: under $10 for 3 "small" (1 large scoop) cones including a topping for each. The ice cream was specialty and had AMAZING premium home-made ingredients- I had the "yippee skippy" flavor ice cream: peanut butter ice cream with carmel ripples, brownie bits and some (chocolate?) covered pretzels. SO GOOD. I would go back for that alone. The only thing about my ice cream was that I tasted a few icy crystals throughout my ice cream- which to me means it may have melted and refrozen (or crystallized somehow) so it wasn't perfect. I should have taken a pic if their sign. It said basically "Nutrition Information: Don't even ask! We put tons of WI cream, gobs of tasty homemade ingredients so that our ice cream is SUPER YUMMY! Our ice-cream is NOT low-fat, NOT low-anything so if you want nutritious go eat some carrots!" Amazing looking premium unique flavors, one labeled "This $&!@ is out of control" or something like that! They also have super caffeinated ice cream flavors. It is a roadside ice cream shop (like the traditional Dairy Queen/small town walk up to the window) outdoor ice-cream place, plenty of parking and a few outside tables and chairs. They aren't fully up and running, but I would definitely go back!
