nemo sergesSeptember 14, 2016This ice cream goes AWFFFFF !!! I had the blueberry cheesecake, brownie cascade and horchata flavor in a banana split !!!! So good. They have a lot of variety and even a vegan option.
Mark SchaeferMarch 25, 2016The ice cream is the killer app here. Sometimes the line is too long so turn away and come back at an "off" hour. Mackinaw Island Fudge is proof that mankind is good and worthy of preservation. ;-)
There are decadent treats to recommend here, but you really came for the Fat Elvis, so don't be cruel to yourself.
One of my favorite ice cream places! The flavors are always delicious and usually rotating every few weeks so there's always something new to try. The 'Superman' flavor is amazing!
MightybytesJuly 23, 2012The best of Chicago’s locally baked treats come together at George’s Ice Cream & Sweets where they ice cream and sweets from bakeries all around Chicago. Stop by on Wednesdays for board game night. Read more
Todd RuppenthalJune 28, 2014Step out of line when you get close to Ice Cream case and check out flavors so you know what you want when it is your turn. Keep the line moving and be respectful to others in line.
Jaya WhiteMay 30, 2012Grasshopper sundae is amazing- my husband and I can't get enough of it. We love everything we've tried here actually. Wonderful place in a great neighborhood!
Joseph B.May 16, 2017The long line moves quickly, the prices are good, and there's a large and rotating menu of flavors.
A SFNovember 8, 2015It is a very nice place... Dark Chocolate Almond bark was very good, but dark chocolate peanut butter cup was very sweet I didn't like it...
Cassandra CheongAugust 22, 2015The chocolate raspberry truffle ice cream is delish! Best eaten in a waffle cone:)
They do have outdoor seating in the back. Love this place ! Coconut Bliss is my fav
Try the Peach and the Vanilla Bean ice cream sundae. So good!!
Kellen TerrettSeptember 27, 2014Ask the people working there what's best. They'll turn you on to some incredible parings.
Andrew ScuttMarch 17, 2014One of my favorite spots in the neighborhood no matter what season. Get the Yippee Skippy!
Emily CanibanoNovember 8, 2012Vegan ice cream and gluten free cones anyone can eat here try the raspberry soy nebula
Alexandria KasparSeptember 12, 2015AMAZING ice cream! Soo creamy, definitely not your average frozen desert.
- Todd RuppenthalJuly 12, 2014George's always good! Go there for green tea ice cream, last time they did not have. Hope they were just out and not that they will not have anymore. Will see.
You have to try the blueberry cheesecake and the Door county cherry ice cream. To die for!!!
Christopher MarxFebruary 17, 2011They were out of vanilla for a malt. So the server recommended Horchata. It was so good, I may never go back to vanilla!
- You must try the blueberry cheesecake and the Door county cherry ice cream
Snap o lantern and pretzel cones. Just tasty and friendly service.
Francois FJuly 26, 2011Free wifi and great ambience but $10+ for a large coffee and cake.. no ma'am!
Try the Zoreo ice cream or the mint avalanche...amazing!
The Oreo yogurt is very, very good, and the staff are always überfriendly.

Get the grasshopper sundae with two spoons. It tastes amazing and is big enough to share.
