Been coming to Chill Nitro pretty frequently the last year or so after we had an event and got to try it. Every time we have come they have always been so nice and our drinks and ice cream are always delicious! My go to drink is the Carolina dirty soda, which is a cheerwine with vanilla and pineapple syrups, and coconut creamer. Absolutely 10/10 will always recommend. To switch it up I will also get the classic dirty soda, a Diet Coke with lime juice and coconut creamer, from time to time as well. Another 10/10. On our recent visit I also got an ice cream special they were doing for the month of June, Summer Camp Chaos. Toasted marshmallow ice cream with brownie pieces and graham crackers, topped with marshmallow and caramel drizzle. I did sub peanut butter drizzle for the caramel drizzle as a peanut butter lover and wow was it a game changer. This was such a good ice cream flavor for summer! read more

Really cool concept for an ice cream place. I had the banana pudding flavor and my friend had the peanut butter. Both tasted amazing and had good texture! The place was packed and the workers (who were very nice) got through the line with speed and efficiency! read more

This place is a toss up between a night cap and a snack. It is definitely a snackers delight. I had the coconut milk with pecans and a double shot of Woodford....no syrup. Absolutely wonderful. The syrup in my opinion would have made it too sweet. The service was over the top, friendly and full of suggestions on options. Indoor and outdoor seating, with an collegiate ambiance. Definitly a place to drop in .... read more

Been here a few times now and it is the best ice cream around. Made to order, and that's hard to beat. Even the best premade that comes in tubs does not compare. This is as fresh made as it gets. This shop is also for the over 21 crowd, they will make your frozen treat fresh to order with a shot of your favorite aqua vitae. Butter Pecan with Woodford Reserve... omg, definitely on the top of my list of favorites! They also do a make it your own thats hard to beat, pretty much any combo you can come up with. Their Peanut Butter Cup is a winner too. The staff and owner are all friendly and kind. The making it experience is its own show and vibe as well. Watching them make your iced treat to your specifications is a part of the coolness of Chill Nitro. Definitely worth the effort and your support. *There is a parking lot at the end of the block as well, validate with the QR in the shop to park for free. 4.5 Stars rounded up for the great staff and chill experience 01124 read more

This is not your average ice cream shop they make everything with nitrogen. They can also add alcohol to your ice cream. They do have signature ice creams you can choose from or choose your own toppings. It was definitely something different I wouldn't say I loved it but I didn't hate it. The strawberry tasted just like regular strawberry ice cream and biscoff tasted more like cake batter than ice cream. I was expecting a little more but I think I need to pick something else next time. read more

This was our first time at Nitro and it was a warm night so it was great to try this place out and sit outside on their chairs! Even though it was a week night, it was still pretty busy. However, even though it was pretty busy, it was a fairly quick turn around for them to keep the line moving. A big part of this shop is the experience that you get from watching them make your ice cream. It was a very unique experience and cool to watch! The actual ice cream had a great proportion of toppings in every bite. The only reason I gave this 4 stars instead of 5 stars is the price. Like I said, the experience was very cool and the ice cream tasted great, but it was quite pricey. And for that reason, I think I'm more likely to try other shops in town before I would come back. read more

I love nitrogen ice cream! I ordered a small cup of cookie dough ice cream to share with my husband. It was incredibly fresh with nice sized chunks of cookie dough pieces. The store was clean and it's always cool to see stores make nitrogen ice cream. Service was friendly and fast. Since this is downtown Winston, there is no dedicated parking lot. However, there is a parking lot nearby that advertises a handful of shops will validate parking - Chill Nitro being one of them. The validated parking is good for up to 2 hours. read more

Really friendly staff to greet you! I went on a hot summer's night following dinner and it was POPPING. There's coffee, alcoholic drinks, ice cream, floats and more! You can infuse your ice cream with alcohol into shakes. It's super customizable on pretty much everything. The ice cream is made using nitrogen - I'd say it doesn't come out as creamy but very airy- very fun interesting concept. You can hang out in the nice AC and play a variety of games - we played uno, but there were other card games, monopoly, and others there. Lastly, it is pricey but you are paying for something very unique! read more

Came during what should've been business hours but they were closed. Double checked hours on Yelp, their website and everything. Several other people also came up and puzzled for them to be closed. Won't be back. UPDATE: I received an apology and an offer to return and redeem a free treat from the business owner, as she was apparently running late in a meeting. I doubt I'll be taking her up on this, as my schedule is busy and the shop is out of my way, but I do want to say that while I appreciate the apology and the offer, I stand by my review because this is no way to run a business. I understand people trying to make it running small businesses, but posting regular business hours without the certainty of being able to sustain those hours is not something that bodes well for any kind of business. read more

On our way to Yama's, we passed Chill Nitro, and my son begged to stop. We had no idea what it was, but he was sold on the promise of ice cream, so in we went. The moment I walked in, I was greeted right away--always a good start! Looking at the menu, it seemed like everything was alcohol-infused, but when I asked, they assured me there were regular options too. My son got cookies and cream, and I went with pineapple sorbet topped with raspberries. Now, I won't lie--it's not cheap. Two small ice creams set me back nearly $19, which felt a bit wild. But the experience made up for it! They use liquid nitrogen to create your order, and watching the foggy magic happen was so fun. They even have a step-by-step guide posted on the wall to explain the process. Even though it's pricey, I'd definitely come back for the cool vibes and unique experience. Bonus: my son loved his ice cream, and so did I! read more

Chill Nitro was especially refreshing after walking in the Pride Parade on a hot and humid day! There was only one person behind the counter but she was peppy and pleasant and churning out the orders. Loved my Cheerwine ice cream topped with Marshmallow Drizzle and the sour gummy pride flag was a special and adorable touch. Thank you, Chill Nitro! ‍ read more

Stopped in for a yelp drop in event this evening. I got a complimentary strawberry and cream shake (made with coconut milk) I was so excited to see non dairy options for the base of the milkshake! They also have the option to turn any of their shakes into an adult shake by adding alcohol. Pretty cool! My shake came out quickly after ordering. Only had to wait a few minutes. The inside was crowded because it was raining this evening but they have a cute outdoor eating area out front that would be fun for a warm summer night. I'll have to come back on a non rainy night for sure! read more

I love Caroline. I love her enthusiasm, and no one is a harder worker. Her taking ownership of this place has pushed it up a few notches and I recommend it in person on the regular. (I work around the corner -- they're great neighbors too.) I've never gotten anything I didn't like, but I have been overwhelmed by the volume of possibilities so usually I focus on the flavors of the month or a current special. A recent foray into Cheerwine icecream was a particularly good one. read more

The Mrs & I went to WS for dinner, and I've wanted to try this place for a while now. So glad we did, it exceeded my expectations! The ladies working tonight were very informative and answered all our questions. I went with the red velvet and my bride had butter pecan. My choice was probably the smoothest, most tasteful ice cream I've ever had, and trust me, there has been probably a thousand others before this. My Mrs loved hers as well, and I tasted it, it was very good, maybe a few too many pecans, or maybe they could have been chopped up some? But, both of them were really tasty and watching the liquid nitrogen work was really cool. Will definitely be back when we are back in town read more

Three cups of delicious, made-on-the-spot ice cream with all the fixins with the aid of -320° F nitrogen. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable (I asked about dye since we're a dye-free fam & they immediately obliged). They are also very efficient. The line was long but each customer got the same service and well-made treat. Awesome spot. read more

I visited Chill Nitro as part of a Yelp Elite event and let me just say, I enjoyed the experience. There was a featured strawberry milkshake for the elites and I was able to get it dairy free. They have the options of coconut milk or oat milk. I chose oat milk and it was a great choice. They were out of dairy free whip so I got it without. It is the best dairy free milkshake I've ever had. Everything is made fresh and with nitrogen. If I'm ever in Winston-Salem, I'll visit again. They have other beverage options as well and I'd like to try a few. There were 2 super friendly young lady's working and they both answered all of my questions. read more

Delicious ice cream and very friendly service too! Very popular spot, but the wait wasn't long.

This was my first experience at Chill Nitro, and nitrogen frozen ice cream in general. I enjoyed it, although it was a bit pricey for two small ice creams. However, it was most certainly "dessert and a show," as the freezing of the ice cream is done by nitrogen being pumped into Kitchen Aid mixing bowls where your ingredients have been placed. The process was very cool to watch, and most definitely different than any other ice cream shop I have been to before. I got cookies and cream ice cream, and my friend got Cheesecake ice cream. The texture of my ice cream was nice and creamy and smooth. However, her texture was off a bit, and it seemed icy. I am sure that is due to how it was made, but mine did not seem to have those characteristics. I think it was a good experience, but it was a bit pricey for ice cream. However, since a small portion was pretty large, I don't think you would need more than that. read more

For my 12 and 13 year old daughters to ask to leave an ice cream place, you know it's bad. I am so disappointed with this experience. I know it's Saturday night at 9pm, but why are you playing music with explicit lyrics while a family with kids is sitting inside? And I'm not talking words you can barely hear because they're drowned out by the music.... I'm talking straight up explicit like I've never been in a place of business where they're playing music like that. I'm disgusted. And unfortunately the ice cream didn't make the experience any better. At $7, I would've expected more. I will not be returning and encourage anyone with kids to think twice about dropping money here. read more

Chill Nitro is consistently a hit for me! There are plenty of ice cream spots in the Triad, but Chill Nitro has an edge that makes it stand out with their boozy inclusions. The staff here are always incredibly kind and if you're struggling to decide, they are super helpful! It seems like they're also branching into coffees, as they had some wintery coffee specials on my last visit! Bonus points, they told us that they could transform those coffee specials into an ice cream concoction! I guess it's because they use real cream and flash freeze it, but the ice cream here is so smooth and creamy. It's really a cut above. I personally love the cookie butter, but you can't go wrong here! read more

I'd been wanting to try this place AND try a dirty soda. So alas, this was a dream come true! The two employees were so fun and sweet.

I wanted a dirty soda so went with the house special: Carolina cowboy. It was cheerwine, vanilla creamer, and a shot of espresso. Omg so so so good. I wish I had one right now lol. Will definitely go back my next visit to Winston. read more

My wife had this place in our bookmarks for when we had an opportunity to check it out. This weekend we had some family in town to visit and we were in the area so we thought we would finally stop in. We arrived about 2:30pm on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. We approached the counter and were greeted by a very friendly man who asked us if we had been in before. When we told him it was our first time he gave us a short breakdown. You can chose from one of their signature flavor combinations or create your own. You can also add a liquor infusion of various rums, gin, tequilas, vodkas, whiskeys, bourbons and more. He told us the ice cream recipe is one handed down through the generations and as they make your custom desert they also add nitrogen through a system which pumps it directly into the counter mixers. The liquid nitrogen freezes the ice cream so quickly that it does not form large ice crystals. The quick freeze makes a smooth and creamy ice cream with little to no trapped air bubbles. We each chose an item and watched as they were expertly made to perfection. When our desserts arrived they looked and tasted delicious! Overall this was a great experience and one we would recommend to others. Do expect to pay a premium for your items though. Fabulous desserts, wonderfully friendly staff and great product. read more

Chill Nitro was the last stop on a recent food tour of Winston-Salem. We were able to order a small of whatever flavor we wanted. If we wanted, we could have paid extra to get an alcohol mixed in. They have suggestions for what pairs well together. The staff was welcoming when we arrived and gave us a brief overview on the process. It is -320 degrees and the liquid nitrogen mixes with the other ingredients it turns into a gas that is fun to watch as the ice cream is made. The quick freeze is to make the ice cream more creamy. If you don't want dairy milk they have oat and coconut milks available. I went with the strawberry shortcake and it had real berries in it. It was really good and I felt bad for not eating more of it but I was stuffed from the other stops on the tour. I do look forward to trying other flavors though and some are there for just a month. Chill Nitro is a neat place to stop for freshly made ice cream in Winston-Salem. There are plenty of tables to sit and eat the ice cream after if you choose to do that. read more

Such a cool, fun place. It's a must visit this summer. The staff was nice and the space was inviting and very clean. There was plenty of seating inside, a few tables and bar top seating at the window. and four tables outside. It is located off of W Fourth street, near Foothills. It is a great after dinner option. Take a little walk and get some ice cream. They have many different flavors and several options for mix-ins and toppings. And for the 21 and over crowd, there are options to add a shot of alcohol to your ice cream. The menu even has suggestions for the best pairings but you can choose whatever you like. They have a pretty large selection of options. I ordered a medium cookies and cream with a shot of bourbon. It was smooth and creamy and I enjoyed it. Plus, for those looking for a dairy free option, they have it covered. There was a sign that said they serve oat milk ice cream. read more

We love science and ice cream in our family. Having ice cream made with liquid nitrogen seemed like the perfect Saturday night fun activity. The interior is modern with places to eat. The staff was very friendly and they enjoyed watching the kids being mesmerized by the liquid nitrogen. I ordered the triple chocolate to share with my son. If you check in with Yelp, you receive a dollar off your ice cream. The portions are large so next time I will get a smaller size. It was so much fun to watch them make the ice cream. It was really delicious. Because of the liquid nitrogen, the ice cream was very creamy and the chunks of chocolate and brownie were well incorporated. We will definitely be back to try other flavors. read more
