From Boca to Stuart: The Coolest Ice Cream Spots in South Florida 🍦

Because there’s no sweeter way to celebrate National Ice Cream Day! July in South Florida means sunshine, family time, and any excuse to treat yourself to something sweet. With National Ice Cream Day landing on July 20th, our team is celebrating the only way we know how, by sharing our favorite local ice cream spots from Boca Raton all the way up to Stuart.

This isn’t your average roundup. These are the creameries we personally frequent with our kids, our clients, and our friends. Locally loved, family-run, and full of flavor, each one is a small-town gem with a big scoop of personality.

📍Boca Raton: Proper Ice Cream

Tucked inside Royal Palm Place, Proper Ice Cream is a boutique spot serving up chef-crafted, small-batch flavors made with premium ingredients. Think: brown butter, lemon curd, Valrhona chocolate, it’s next-level indulgence.

What to try: Roasted Strawberry, Buttermilk Lemon, or anything with their house-made brittle
Vibe: Polished, elevated, and made for foodies

📍Delray Beach: Sloan’s Ice Cream

Whimsical, over-the-top, and pink in all the best ways—Sloan’s is an iconic stop in Downtown Delray. From the candy walls to the chandeliers, this place is built for memories.

What to try: Cookie Monster, the Circus Sundae, chocolate-dipped waffle cones
Vibe: Pure fun, full of nostalgia, kid-approved

📍Tequesta: Palm Beach Ice Cream Co.

A local legend with roots right here in Tequesta, Palm Beach Ice Cream Co. is known for generous scoops and rich, creamy flavors that have kept regulars coming back for decades. No frills, just the good stuff.

What to try: Toasted Coconut, Pistachio, Mocha Chip
Vibe: Old-school Florida charm, laid-back, consistently delicious

📍Jupiter: Matty’s Gelato Factory

A Jupiter staple with a cult following, Matty’s dishes out artisan gelato with a New York twist. Flavors rotate daily and sell out fast, so don’t sleep on your favorites.

What to try: Cannoli, Chocolate Peanut Butter, Lemon Basil
Vibe: Community fave, always buzzing, seriously good gelato

📍Tequesta: Cream Republic

Hidden away in Tequesta, Cream Republic serves up small-batch scoops with clean ingredients and major creativity. Perfect for a post-park treat or a summer evening stroll.

What to try: Honey Lavender, Key Lime Pie, Orange Creamsicle
Vibe: Bright, coastal, and refreshingly local

📍Stuart: Kilwins Stuart

Located in the heart of historic downtown, Kilwins is a Stuart institution. Fudge, caramel corn, waffle cones, and of course, ice cream. The perfect end to a riverside day.

What to try: Sea-Salt Chocolate, Salted Caramel, or anything in a fresh-made waffle cone
Vibe: Classic charm, family-owned feel, timeless treats
