I love this ice cream shop! One reason I like it is because they are very quick! I only need to wait about 30 seconds to about 1 minute and 25 seconds to get my ice cream. Another reason I like this place is because their ice cream is great and there is quite a variety of flavors, dips, slushes and more! This is why I rate this place 5 stars!

This place got me through my vanilla soft serve pregnancy cravings all summer! They have the best soft serve in the whole area. Staff is always friendly and never once had a bad experience. Best summer go to for ice cream treats.

Came to get a shake for myself and a dip cone for my sister. Really generous with their servings. I like that you can add pretty much any flavor into a shake. Went for a Peanut Butter n Marshmallow shake and it was delicious. Prices are fair for an ice cream place and staff was friendly. Will be back.

What a Great find! We drove in from PHX. Had dinner at the Pub next door. We saw a line standing and then learned they were waiting to get an Ice Cream. If all the locals are standing outside in this muggy heat, it must be a good! Had the Boston Malt with banana. Great service and a great value! Thx Frosty Tips! We will be back.

Local ice cream stand staple in the Shorewood area for many moons now. They have such a great menu of items and always awesome service. We try to make it here many times over the summer. Highly recommended. Enjoy!

Employees were very friendly and gave us good recommendations. Blue raspberry dipped cone and the Oreo Blitz were both super good!

I love frosty tips! I have been going there for years. The ice cream always taste so good at such an affordable price. Their employees are always friendly and eventually familiar, it provides a wonderful small town feeling. I will always pick frosty tips over chain ice cream restaurants. I'll even pick frosty tips of Waltz ice cream, they're just that good.
