9 Best Ice Cream Shops near Koloa

“A great little ice cream shop with delicious vegan options. While sorbet is not particularly appealing when what you want is ice cream, the sorbetto here is close enough to vegan ice cream that those who can’t eat dairy can have something as great as those who can. Both ice cream and sorbetto had tons of options and great toppings.“

“Delicious. And a big thank you for trying to be mindful of our waste impact on the ?& the island by using earth friendly packaging/utensils. I was looking everywhere for a great shave ice business that also believes in social responsibility. Mahalo! ❤️“

“Looking for an ice cream treat near Poipu? You’ll find it in Koloa at Koloa Mill Ice Cream and Coffee. They offer about 30 flavors of which “Banana Mac” was my favorite. So much so I had it three days in a row!! They also have Shave Ice, pastries and coffee. The servings are reasonably priced, generous and the service friendly!! We highly recommend a visit and while there you can visit the other quaint shops.“

“Just have to give 5 stars after reading the reviews by people who are clueless. Mangos is awesome! The people there are kind and helpful. If you can’t afford Hawaii don’t go. It’s expensive. Don’t blame the locals who open their shops every day and struggle to make it because it was too spendy for you. Imagine how the locals feel! Expect to pay more for things than you’re used to. It’s an island! And Paradise is not free! Thank you Mangos! Great job!!“

“Absolutely ridiculously good ice cream - the ooey gooey pineapple cake flavor in particular is just toe-curlingly tasty, with real chunks of pineapple upside down cake mixed in. Soft and creamy and scrumptious - lots of fantastic and unusual flavors.“

“Skinny Mike's ice cream took my taste buds to a different dimension. Awesome place for amazing ice cream!“

“O M G. Am I dreaming? Dole Whip is my all-time favorite sweet treat and when I heard about Pineapple in Paradise, I knew I had to try it. Luckily the van was stopped up in Princeville and close by. I got the pineapple dole whip in a pineapple cake cone and it exceeded my expectations. If you have ever been to Disneyland, you know the Dole Whip consistency, color, and flavor is just magical. However, this one topped Disneyland's. First, the whip wasn't hollow inside. The soft serve was packed in the perfect swirl. When I got down to the cake cone, it was the most delicious pound cake tasting cone I've ever eaten. The cake was moist and so unique. Everything about this was outstanding and I cannot recommend this spot enough. If you're in Kaua'i, you need to find this truck's location, and try it for yourself.“

“We walked around the corner, at the end of the street and found this gem. I LOVED hearing the kids, just being family. I was greeted kindly and got my order in a timely manner. The counter and side area where you can eat was clean. I can’t have dairy so I had just shave ice and it was so refreshing. The flavors blended well (I had coconut & lychee) and tasted yummy. My favorite part was the youngest daughter who definitely had the Aloha Spirit. She was practicing on her skates, helmeted of course, and talking to myself and another family. I asked about if she liked school and art (that’s what I teach), and her favorite flavor. It’s strawberry BTW I told my husband, she’s the original “Lilo”. I want to thank the family for making our day. Mahalo nui loa! ❤️“

“We stopped in after an early dinner on our first night in Lihue. This place was small and a bit hard to find on the back side of a strip mall, but once we did, it was great. We had the shave ice combo that included mac nut ice cream and pineapple in the core, melon and coconut syrups, and sweetened condensed milk drizzled on the top. It was great and two of us easily split it.“
