What's a lactose intolerant person with a window seat to do? Yes, get 6 ounces of wet butter pecan ice cream right before a flight. I don't know if they all throw the mixed up ice cream behind their back and into the cup like Tom Cruise from Cocktail, but my guy did it, so keep your camera ready. read more

I finally got to have Amy's icecream on my trip to Austin this time. I think if they had Amy's at every airport, travelers would be a lot more chirpier. Atleast it brightened my day. Imagine, walking drearily through the airport, looking for signs to get to your destination. Suddenly you spot an Icecream sign and it is the "famous" Amy's. Your eyes open wide, you recheck the sign and ensure your brain didn't fool you. You see it's open, you thank your stars but walk as quickly as possible to get into the long line to get your hands on it. Icecream has its desired effect- I got the Mexican vanilla and brown butter scoops with a topping of hot chocolate fudge and pecans. By the time I made my way to the carousel to pick up my luggage, the Icecream was polished clean. Don't miss your chance to 10X your happiness if you are walking by. read more

A really cute ice cream shop inside of the Austin airport. I really enjoyed it. I love ice cream and I was really hyped to see good local ice cream represented in the airport. I had never tried it before so I went with the Mexican vanilla flavor. It was incredible. It lived up to all the hype. The portions were very good. I got the tiny size and it was about the size of a single scoop from other places. I wish I would've realized that you can get multiple flavors even with the tiny size. I didn't get any mixes, but that definitely seems like a great option as well. I think the price was actually pretty good for how much I got! Would recommend. read more

A must do whenever you have a sweet craving at the Austin Airport! Mexican Vanilla, Sweet Cream, Butter Pecan, all super creamy/chewy and have a nice mild taste. Plus, if you see Bee Cave Crunch on the menu, consider it a lucky day, as that flavor is to die for! Service is always fast and friendly. A large cup, with 3 flavors in it, was under $8. They also have pints on the side to Grab and Go. read more

It's not a trip to Austin without a trip to Amy's. Amy's Ice Creams has been one of my favorite ice cream shops for years and the airport location is no exception. The flavor selection rotates from a list of 350 varieties so there's always something I like. My favorite is Mexican Veganilla (vegetarian vanilla) in a cone. When I'm in the mood I'll top it with chocolate chips or sprinkles. It hits the spot every time. The ice cream is the highlight, but I also love how engaged the business is within the Texas community. The shops offer a welcoming neighborhood atmosphere and staff is always very friendly. They always make me feel at home. When you're in the area, don't miss a chance to enjoy some Amy's Ice Cream, Texas style. I highly recommend it! Pro Tip: If you don't eat dairy, they also offer dairy-free ice cream and vegan ice-based flavors! read more

Usually I expect airport locations of popular local establishments to provide watered down service and a moderately similar product to their out of airport counterparts. Never would I have thought I'd find an airport location superior to the original but this spot breaks the mold! The service is friendly and efficient. The staff will occasionally perform ice cream tricks, make modifications when requested, and always provide conversation, samples and a fun time! I ordered The Local, a sweet cream base Sunday with mixed nuts, sea salt, and marshmallows folded in. The entire concoction is topped with fudge and a passions sprinkle of sea salt and hot fudge. I'm aware that my dessert doesn't look like the most aesthetic dessert you've ever seen, but it certainly delivers in flavor! After trying the dark chocolate, I mixed that in too, and subbed the marshmallows for snickers because...calories don't count in the airport right? Right?! Anyways, if you're having a tough airport day, or need an airport pick me up in anyway, this is THE spot. Pro tip: since this spot does not have seating of its own. Take your ice cream for a walk towards the lower numbered gates until you find live music (it's usually playing), or the comfortable, blue,floor to window facing lounge seats. Bonus points if you catch either during sunset! read more

Amy's is a must-go if you're at the Austin airport. I've tried this exact Amy's a few different times now and the flavors seemed decent...until I recently tried their Sesame flavor and it blew my mind. The base is their Sweet Cream, mixed with white sesame butter. It's sweet, savory, and perfectly balanced. The texture also has the right stringy "pull". 11/10. read more

WOW FACTOR? Austin airport has a great variety of food sources and overall has the lowest prices of any airport I've been to in years! Upon arrival in Austin, we stopped here. And, upon departure we came a second time. HAVE AGAIN: Mexican vanilla and chocolate ice creams were delicious and cost only $6.30! A hot fudge + almonds + vanilla sundae was also delicious and cost only $9.90. Delicious ice cream. read more

Had 20 mins before my flight on a 90 degree humid blazing hot day. This place felt like a god send! The staff were very kind and were all smiling. I'm not much of a topping person, but they have an option where if you don't want toppings, you can just take a cup you want and skip the line. The portion size was PERFECT, and oftentimes mint chocolate chip ice cream mostly just green liquid and a few choco chips, but this one had a really great ratio. Yummy, delicious, and can't think of a single complaint! read more

I just have to say, bless the AUS airport for having an Amy's Ice Creams counter. There was a little bit of a line but it moved pretty quickly. The servers were excellent and knowledgeable about all my ice cream questions. It's also located near other great food options, so my mom and I were able to grab some tacos and then get the ice cream here for desert. The spot is adorable and next to the cutest airport bookshop. Anyway, will make a stop here any time I'm at this airport. read more

Airport ice cream, you'd think this wouldn't be as good given it's in an airport, but let me tell you Amy's hits the spot. Amy's is a local spot throughout Austin, this one just happened to be in the airport. Got the triple mex and coffee with crushed-in pieces of heath on it. I normally don't go for the more basic flavors such as a vanilla oriented one, but the triple mex is the most fire vanilla ice cream I've EVER had. It's so strong in flavor and really creamy. Tastes so good with the heath pieces. The staff was helpful in providing recommendations. This ice cream is pricey, but so glad I tried. They have vegan flavors and a bunch of other options available. read more

In town visiting the area. Had to stop by this phenomenal ice cream spot on 6th Street.... And then again at the airport! Brilliant idea!!! ! The staff makes the experience super awesome...the ice cream makes the experience awesome!!! Wow the place had some decadent ice cream. I had the Mexican vanilla with a crush in of gummy bears. I had a large size which was just what I was craving. I wanted to take a pint to-go however travel via the plane doesn't make that doable. The girls loved ice right before the plane ride as they had been good all weekend!!! The friendly staff offered up samples and explained what was in each flavor I inquired about. If you get to Austin, Texas or wherever else Amy's Ice cream is offered...you definitely eat it. You can thank me later. I was very pleased with the service. The product has me wanting to visit more often. Thank you for the hospitality! Respectfully, Bryan OKC I would love a location up in Oklahoma City ! #JustSayin read more

On a layover at the Austin Texas airport and was looking for something to snack on before my next flight. Luckily they had smoothies here as well as ice cream! My bf got a Soco Stroll and I got the Açaí. Consistency was great, and mine was not overly sweet. By bfs was kind of tart... not my favorite. They can be pricey, about $9 each. Not bad! Their ice cream looked delicious... read more

I find airports boring and kinda depressing. People just waiting mostly with a glazed and tired look or rushing. We need things more things at airports that make people happy like...ice cream. I don't remember seeing Amy's Ice Creams during previous visits and it made me smile when I saw this on this trip. Of course I had to stop. I got a sundae with Mexican vanilla, Belgian chocolate and extra fudge and pecans. It was good. The staff were super nice and cheerful. It was cute to see a couple of them dancing. Keep doing you and spreading cheer! read more

I've never gotten airport ice cream before but the reviews for Amy's Ice Cream convinced me. As reviewers before me have said, Amy's Ice Cream provides outstanding food and service (at TX airport prices, which to be fair are still cheaper than LA prices ). It's located across from gate 21, near a fried chicken and a pizza place. I sampled the Mexican vanilla, coffee, sweet cream, and Fireball (yes like the alcohol). As Fireball was my first exposure to hard liquor, you may not be surprised to hear that I ended up getting the Mexican vanilla, sweet cream, and coffee, sans Fireball, in the mini size. The worker was super friendly and helpful, and I chatted with her a bit while I deliberated. You can get any number of flavors you'd like for any of the sizes of ice cream. Toppings are extra. I ended up getting the three aforementioned flavors and the worker was kind enough to put them in a larger sized cup so that the flavors could be separated from each other. The ice cream was super dense and creamy. They did NOT skimp on the ingredients, and none were overly syrupy-sweet. The sweet cream flavor was simple but so good. It tastes like homemade whipped cream! The coffee was good and strong, the smoky espresso flavor tasted exactly like how coffee smells, and I found it delicious, even as an infrequent coffee drinker. The Mexican vanilla was the most interesting. I had never had vanilla like this before!! I'm not sure how to describe it, maybe a bit more floral than regular vanilla, with a tangy aftertaste? It tasted lighter (in vibes, not intensity of flavor) compared to, say, a Haagen Daz vanilla. I usually don't get vanilla in ice cream shops, preferring to sample wilder flavors, but this is one case in which simple is the best. Amy's Ice Cream is a must try if you're passing through Austin airport. They don't have as large of a selection as other shops, and I believe flavors rotate, but given the quality of the three flavors I tried, you are in for an amazing experience no matter what! read more

The kids tried chocolate and cookies and cream ice cream. I tried their Mexican Vanilla Cream, Chhai Tea Ice Cream, Butter Pecan. Oooo! One of the best ice cream I've had! No cheap though! About 7 cups per small cup. Fun flavors. Unique employees wearing fun shirts like tie dyed! Such a fun vibe here! Why I love their ice cream and I was willing to pay premium price in their airport? Well... I can't go to the airport bar, I got my two young boys with me and its cheaper than a drink at the airport! It's so good! Creamy! Doesn't melt that fast because it's so creamy! Amy's Ice Cream HQ is in Austin! So why not be at the Austin Airport! Found a little history about them: "Known colloquially as Amy's, Amy's Ice Creams was started by Amy Simmons in 1984. While in Boston, as a premedical major at Tufts University, Amy worked for Steve's Ice Cream. After Steve's Ice Cream was purchased by a larger corporation, Amy decided to go into business for herself. Amy and her business partner Scott Shaw eventually decided to open their ice cream shop in Austin. They wrote a check for the lease of their first store on Guadalupe Street in Austin.[5] Amy has since opened fourteen more locations, with the majority of them in Austin, one in Houston, and one in San Antonio. The Houston location was formerly at The Rice Hotel.In 2009, owner Amy Simmons stated that she does not intend to rapidly expand the chain. In 2017, the company reported a $9 million revenue." Definitely amazing gourmet ice cream. Went to Austin Airport twice after visiting NOLA. Each time, I got a treat with my boys. read more

Same prices but different flavors from the Amy's on Guadalupe. I love that they are patient while you try samples and let you split even a "Tiny" into 2 flavors. I enjoyed my "Junk in the trunk" (Mexican vanilla with Oreos & chocolate chips) and Zilker mint chip (had much bigger chocolate pieces but otherwise tasted like a good standard mint chip). I basically got a modification of the Texas Dirt Cake and Thin Mint I got at the Guadalupe location yesterday I recommend them all! read more

Maybe I'm biased, but you can never go wrong with ice cream when you're in the Midwest. Amy's ice cream did not disappoint me. I walked by three times, debating if I should order something or not. Their cute signage and names of their ice cream specials caught my eye. Eventually, I gave in and ordered 'The Child' from the popular Disney series. It was Oreo ice cream, Andes mints, waffle cone, and hot fudge. It was amazing. Their workers are also friendly and fun. I saw one guy scoping ice cream, and he would toss the scoops up in the air and catch them with the cup. The woman who helped me was really nice and had a positive attitude. If you're not in the mood for ice cream, they have smoothie and drinks as well. read more

Amy's has some of the best ice cream I have ever eaten! I had a layover and spotted their kiosk as I was taking a lap. It was a little warm in the airport, so I figured it was the perfect time for some ice cream. I'm glad that I stopped! I got a single scoop of the sweet cream ice cream and omg it was decadent! It wasn't too sweet and was perfectly rich and creamy. It had a great texture too! A single scoop is a little on the expensive side, but I honestly think it was worth it. Next time I'm in Texas, I'll definitely stop at Amy's again! read more

Fun, local flavors with wholesome ingredients, just what you need before you get on a crowded flight! We got Popcorn, Zilker's Mint Chip, Rusted Shut (coffee ice cream with Kahlua), and of course Mexican Vanilla, their signature flavor. Delicious! The thing I like about Amy's is their ice cream doesn't overpower you - the flavors aren't too sweet and are sometimes subtle, nice and easy. Definitely worth a stop before you board your flight! read more

I had about 20 minutes before my flight was boarding and I was deciding between a real lunch of a treat. Ice cream beats burgers right before a flight! Seeing I was indecisive, the server responded without hesitation that Coffee was his favorite after I asked for recommendations. Oddly enough, we made some small talk and realized we had a mutual friend with a unique name - Charles P. Thompson. I took the server's recommendation and got Coffee ice cream with Mexican Vanilla mixed in. I found an empty area of the gate where I could eat in peace with my mask off.

"What's your most popular flavor?" "Mexican Vanilla... y'know if you like what everyone else likes."

Why did I choose to get ice cream at 10:30AM? Well, because I had Amy's a few days before and it was really good, so what was I supposed to do, not eat at this airport location for Amy's? No, I had to. This little shop in the middle of the airport had no line and I was in and out in under a minute. I ended up getting a small cookies and cream and it was absolutely delightful. This small chain has such good ice cream that it's a shame that I can't come here more often, a true shame. Overall, Amy's Ice Cream is wonderful and if you are lucky enough to have enough time to kill at the airport, do yourself a favour and get some ice cream from this place, you absolutely will not regret it! read more
