Disney’s BoardWalk is home to TONS of different dining spots, but did you know there are actually TWO popular ice cream locations here?

You’ve likely heard about Beaches & Cream, which is the ice cream spot most people think of in this area of Disney World, but located just a few minutes away on foot is BoardWalk Ice Cream. And with a number of changes happening over at the Beach & Cream To-Go Window (and them taking away our sundaes, which is a huge bummer), we’re starting to think that BoardWalk Ice Cream is the place to go for sweet treats on the BoardWalk!

Atmosphere

BoardWalk Ice Cream is a bit nondescript, but the storefront is obvious if you know what you’re looking for!

The writing on the walls is supposed to look faded, as it’s part of the design, but it does make this spot almost look like it’s just part of the design, or for decoration, not actually somewhere to go in. However, that’s not the case — come on in to get some delicious ice cream!

You won’t find any seating inside, as it’s just a “walk-in, order, and take it back out” sort of place, but there are loads of seating areas around the BoardWalk to enjoy your ice cream at. But enough about the restaurant — what’s on the menu here?!

Menu

On the menu at BoardWalk Ice Cream, you’ll find just that — ice cream! You’ll find a list of flavors available…

…as well as a list of their sundaes, milk shakes, vintage beverages, as well as sodas, Dasani water, and Smartwater bottles.

With that being said, if you want ice cream or maybe a unique non-alcoholic drink, this is the spot to go, but otherwise, you won’t find much else available. But how does it all taste? Let’s find out!

Eats

We started out strong with the Bayside Brownie à la Mode for $7.29, which is A Brownie, Hot Fudge, and Vanilla Ice Cream topped with Whipped Cream, Chocolate Sprinkles, and a Cherry.

You can get any ice cream scoop you’d like with this, but we went with vanilla since it’s a classic! Chocolate lovers and brownie lovers, you’ll love this. The brownie had a nice level of softness to it, and the ice cream in the fudge complemented the brownie very well. Is it super unique? No, not necessarily, but it’s still super solid! There’s a lot of whipped cream, they give you a lot of ice cream, there’s a lot of fudge, and the brownie at the bottom is pretty big, so overall, it was pretty great in terms of size, especially for the price you pay — consider us impressed!

We also snagged the Thundering Surf Peanut Butter and Chocolate Sundae for $9.29, which is A Peanut Butter and Hot Fudge delight featuring Chocolate and Vanilla Ice Cream, Peanut Butter and Chocolate Morsels, Whipped Cream, and a Cherry.

Again, you can choose any ice cream you’d like with this, and we’re glad we went with vanilla again. The flavor is very heavy on the peanut butter, so you’ve really gotta like it to enjoy this treat. The peanut butter actually balanced out the sweetness of the brownie, so if you want more of a balance, this will be a winner. We would get it again, but we feel like it’s a little bit pricey for what you get. It’s something simple and easy, and while there’s nothing wrong with that, it’s more expensive than other items on the menu, and we’re not sure that price is really justified.

We also grabbed the Cookies ‘n Cream Currents Milk Shake for $6.49, which was super smooth and creamy, but VERY messy. It tastes just like cookies and cream in milkshake mode, so again, it’s simple, yet delicious, but you’ll need a LOT of napkins. The whipped cream melts on top very quick, which means that when paired with the fact that they fill up the milkshake SO high, it spills over fast, even on a cooler day. We do appreciate that it’s not too large, and for the price, we think it’s the right amount.

Drinks

Finally, we grabbed the Cherry Limeade for $5.59, which is one of their nostalgic drinks! This is made with Amarena Cherry, Cold-pressed Lime Juice, and Sparkling Water.

This wasn’t what we were expecting in the absolute best way! We were expecting a cherry-flavored Sprite, but this was more of a sparkling soda with a light cherry flavor in it. The cherry wasn’t overpowering, which overall made the drink very refreshing! It had a hint of sourness to it, which we really appreciated, as it helped contribute to the refreshingness of it.

Nosh or Not

This Disney World restaurant is a must-visit if…

• You have a group of kids or pickier eaters and need a solid dessert where everyone can find something they enjoy
• You don’t want to wait in the (potentially) long line at Beaches and Cream, but need some ice cream to hit the spot
• You want to leave the chaos of EPCOT for a bit and are looking for a quieter spot

You should skip this Disney World spot if…

• You want some more unique or special ice cream treats, beyond normal sundaes and milkshakes
• You’re not at EPCOT or staying at the BoardWalk, so it’s out of the way and inconvenient
• You are looking for something with savory, lunch options in addition to sweet treats

Overall

We definitely think this spot is worth checking out, and if you’re looking for a sundae to eat while you walk around the BoardWalk, this is certainly the way to go. We think it’s super underrated, and we’re looking to change that!

In the meantime, we’ll be on the lookout for more restaurant updates from Disney World and beyond. Make sure you stay tuned to the Disney Food Blog for the latest Disney news and more!
