Idyllwild Ice Cream & Jerky

Friendly staff, really good shakes!
I was just a bit disappointed of finding just average Dreyers and Trifty ice creams instead of home made stuff.

We got soft serve ice cream dipped in chocolate. The chocolate tasted kinda like wax and the vanilla was tasteless. :/

If you need something for quick snack like ice cream this is a good place to try. Really small shop but it is crowded. If you love jerky so far this is the first place I’d seen so many choices!!!

Everyone here is sweet and helpful and their ice cream is heavenly. They also have Doggie Frozen Yoghurt! Our dog drools as we walk up to the place, they helpfully warm it up for her and she licks her cup clean as a whistle. Such a fun place to visit when we’re in town. Thanks for everything you do, this is an Idyllwild institution.

Ice cream was good. Service was bad. Lady behind the counter could barely contain her irritation at our kids labored decision making. Refused to fill our water bottle. My recommendation for the lady — begin enjoying your life. As of now, you’re doing it wrong.

I like ice cream. They serve it here. I can have lots. It is good.
Ok of course thats not my review. Im a bit surprised this place had 0 everything on Unilocal!Whats better than having a day to yourself walking around the small town of Idyllwild? Having a day to yourself walking around the small town of Idyllwild with ICE CREAM! I’m telling you, I fiend that stuff.
This little shop is nestled in the heart of Idyllwild that itself is pretty amazing, they say location location location right? So im sure it can’t get any better than this.
The exterior looks runned down but thats to be expected in a town like this. To the side of the place there is a few tables were you can enjoy your goodies in the shade.
The place is super super small, so small you cant really have 2 lines next to each other comfortably. You know what tho? Its ok because these people do an amazing job in getting people in and out pronto.
The staff is just the friendliest people around and I’m almost sure they get it from the owners. I had the pleasure of meeting both, a very friendly couple.
Youve seen many businesses holding sample trays for people walking by? Yeah well these guys hold sample trays for cars driving by. Isn’t that amazing? I have never seen that. They also have a 2^nd employee holding a jerky sign.
Thats right folks, although they sell more ice cream than anything they are not limited to it. You can find jerky, nachos, and shaved ice amongst other stuff here. The prices are great.
We always enjoy this place while we are camping in Idyllwild, I hope you get to try it out next time you’re around too.
