Not Just Your Average Gulf Shores Ice Cream Shop

I Scream the best ice cream gulf shores has to offer because it isn’t just delicious ice cream; it’s gelato! Ice cream in Gulf Shores, AL, pairs nicely with the beach – nothing quite like a cool, frozen treat on a hot day off the Alabama Gulf Coast. While many of the locals or regulars have gotten used to the typical treats from Island ice cream, Yumm Twister, Yard Milkshake Bar, and other establishments – you could have never adequately prepared yourself for what I Scream Gelato has to offer; there is a reason they call themselves “I Scream” Gelato after all.

Authentic Italian, Not Island Ice Cream

Amazing Ice Cream & Excellent Atmosphere in the Hangout! When I am off Beach Blvd, I usually think about Dippin Dots, Cotton Candy, traditional Italian Ice, Cowbell rolled ice cream, and the usual suspects. I visited Kayden's Candy Factory, and the girl working recommended I Scream Gelato Gulf Shores. I am glad we took the recommendation because it was better than anything I could have imagined. They have every flavor you could think of - I will be returning for multiple visits!

One of the Best Ice Cream Shops Near Orange Beach! I am a big fan of old Dutch ice cream, banana splits, and hot fudge sundae snacks, so impressing me takes a lot of decadence. I love gulf shores, Alabama & Orange Beach just as much, and when I was at the Hangout, I saw all the bright colors and strolled right in. The service was amazing, and the sweet, cool treats were even better!
