From the quaint soda shoppes of yore to the modern flavors of today, ice cream is one treat that never goes out of style. And no matter which style of ice cream you're looking for, you can find it in Nashville, TN. And thank goodness that's true in a city that's no stranger to heat!

Finding the best ice cream can provide the perfect cold treat. However, there's no reason to settle for second best. For all of the sweet tooths in Nashville, it's time to grab a spoon, and try these sensational spots around town.

Bobbie's Dairy Dip

Dishing out soft serve ice cream since 1951, this roadside attraction has stayed in business for its classic take on cones, milkshakes, and sundaes. For everyone who remembers the feeling of being handed a soft-serve vanilla dripping with coated chocolate sauce on a hot day, it might be time for a major blast from the past.

Bobbie's has been around for many years and provides some of the best milkshakes you will find in Nashville. This is a smaller joint and seems like it came right out of an old teenage movie. On a hot summer day, a stop at Bobbie's Dairy Dip will help you cool off.

Mike's Ice Cream & Coffee Bar

Found right in the middle of the honky tonks on Broadway Mike's is a great spot for ice cream. They provide hand-dipped choices with plenty of flavors. Many locals rave about the homemade ice cream found here.

Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream

Tennessee was the next obvious choice to open a Jeni's once it became clear they had a far bigger market on their hands than Columbus, OH. The team at Jeni’s makes all of the ice creams, sorbets and frozen yogurt from the ground up using local produce, grass-grazed milk, American bean-to-bar chocolate and world-wide ingredients. Here is a look at what you can experience at Jeni’s.

It's not easy to survive in a world full of conglomerations and short-cuts, but Jeni's found a way to break through. And it's a good thing they did because their ice cream truly does stand out. Jeni's is all about quality in everything they do. From the cows they use to the chairs in their parlor, guests can expect nothing but the very best.

This unique ice cream shop is perfect for cooling you down on a hot day. The staff is very friendly and they provide plenty of interesting flavors. Of course, you can sample the choices before making your final pick.

You can find Jeni’s in three parts of Nashville. It’s been open in the East Nashville neighborhood since 2011 where the first full-size scoop shop found a home. It’s the perfect place for cyclists, pedestrians, families, artists, and urban famers come to visit.

Jeni’s flavors are never duplicated and often copied. They represent experimentation, toying around and building networks of ingredient producers while listening to customer suggestions. Enjoy toppings like salty caramel sauce, extra-bitter hot fudge sauce, and donut gravel on top of flavors like brown butter almond brittle, coffee with cream & sugar, wildberry lavender or yazoo sue with rosemary bar nuts.

This spot makes its own treats, and their recipes and flavor combos are a big hit. While it's a little pricey, their many fans agree that the extra few bucks are worth it.
