Dreamette is the stuff of legends--a Murray Hill staple that's been serving up happiness since, well, practically the dawn of time. (Okay, maybe not that long, but long enough to perfect the art of ice cream.) First things first: bring cash! This charming time capsule doesn't do plastic, and honestly, that's part of its old-school charm. On a humid Florida day, you'll likely find a line stretching out front, but trust me, it's worth it. Think of it as the universe's way of making you savor the anticipation. When you finally get your hands on that luscious, creamy goodness, you'll realize it's not just ice cream--it's an experience. Even the pickiest ice cream snob would have to admit: this place is the real deal. Seating? Let's just say it's not Dreamette's strong suit. But who cares? There's a few tables but we grabbed our treats and embraced the tradition of driveway ice cream. There's something about eating ice cream in your car or perched on the bumper that makes it taste even better. Bonus: no judgment when you accidentally wear half of it on your face. A word of caution: your eyes may be bigger than your stomach. These portion sizes are not for the faint of heart. That "medium" cone? It's basically a dairy skyscraper. Go ahead and challenge yourself--you're living your best life, after all. If you haven't been to Dreamette, do yourself a favor and get over there STAT. Your taste buds will thank you, your diet will cry, and your soul will be very satisfied. Long live Dreamette ice cream! read more

Mr. Bradley, I have corrected my review- I'm talking about the actual location 3646 Post St Jacksonville, FL 32205 United States - Absolutely unacceptable. I come to this place almost every week around 5:30 pm with my 20-month-old granddaughter for a small cup of soft-serve ice cream. We are living two doors down.. Today, i have got treated with pure attitude. A girl, maybe 16, looked at me and said: "Please wait, I need a couple of minutes to sort something out. So , How can I help you, dear?" ( I'm 52 yo lived in three countries speaking fluently couple languages and have a MBA and luxury to take care of my grandchild right now) That fake-sweet "dear" was dripping with condescension. Young lady that message for you -- you don't talk to any customers like that. Ever! This was rude, unpleasant, and completely unprofessional. Plenty of other shops and ice creams deserve my business more than they do. Zero stars given read more

After seeing this place on many TikToks, thought we might as well try it. On a rainy Thursday 5PM- absolutely no line. Had our food within 5 minutes. Friendly staff. I've never seen so many options for dipped cones! I really loved the PB dip. Other than that, I thought ice cream tasted the same as everywhere else's soft serve. The portion sizes are crazy! I ordered the SMALL and it was basically the same height as my fiancés hand. This is great, other than I'm lactose intolerant and really just wanted a taste. Cute little shop. Happy we made the detour to stop here. read more

One of the 'Must Visit' places in Jacksonville. I grew up near Dreamette, and this is always a place to go back when I visit. It is the best soft-serve ice cream you could ever want. While I grew up getting the dip cones, there is something for every palette. Take a minute to watch people walk away to see what they've gotten. You'll hear, "Oooh, what's that?" but you'll also never go wrong with just a plain cone. On a recent visit, before we left town, we stopped at Dreamette, and it became our lunch. I had never had the Blueberry Cobbler cup before, as I'd always had just the "basics," but my goodness, if this is available you need to get it! Be careful of the sizes you get, 'cause I guarantee it's bigger than you think it is. People look at the cup size and forget it's going to be swirled high! I know there are other locations, but this is the original, and therefore, will always be the best. Be sure to bring cash, and don't be surprised if you have to wait for a parking space. read more

Dreamette was such a wonderful find! When I moved to Jax, Murray Hill was the first neighborhood I explored. Inching up Edgewood Ave, I stepped back to the sixties and into a Jax Icon! Frozen custard - so smooth, rich & creamy - it's turned around many scorching Florida summer days and helped me stay cool. It's a walk up business. You order thru a window & wait for your order. No fancy seating (sometimes no seating), but the staff is always friendly and quick. They've recently opened a couple new shops, but I prefer going to the original. Hanging out on the corner, watching people from all walks of life smiling & enjoying their favorite Dreamette treat - life is simpler with a frozen cone in hand read more

Anytime we are around the area of The Dreamette we have to stop by! We've been coming here ever since my wife and I were dating in high school in the 80's. It was the best then and still the best today!!! We definitely recommend The Dreamette! Today we took my mom by there for an afternoon snack. I got the Cake Batter Milkshake for the first time and loved it. My wife got the Honeymoon Milkshake and she said it's her favorite. My mom got the Pineapple Milkshake. She loved it as well. There was an extremely long line to order but it went fairly fast. Service is also friendly. We definitely recommend The Dreamette! read more

*Cash only* I love old school ice cream shops and Dreamette fires on all cylinders! Great ice cream and toppings, fast service, simple menu. I've had their shakes and sundaes which are both very good. I'd say the sundae would be my first choice. Their chocolate ice cream is creamy, smooth and delicious. As far as toppings my absolute favorite is their cookie dough. They use raw cookie dough here and wow, is it blow you away amazing! The Heath is also a great option as are the crushed Oreos. One thing is for sure, they don't skimp on the toppings. The line can get long at times but the wait isn't too bad and it's always worth it! Give them a try if you're in the mood for simple yet epic ice cream. read more

We've been coming here for 15 years now. It's always been our go to place for celebrations with our kids. The ice cream is so creamy and tastes amazing. I love getting the dipped cones and they have so many flavor options. There are always the sweetest young ladies to take your order and make your ice cream behind the counter. It reminds me of my childhood because of the atmosphere and I'm here for it. When we went there were a bunch of middle school aged kids having our after school. It made my husband and I smile because they were just enjoying time at the ice cream shop together. read more

Even with COVID going around, it's not stopping anyone from getting a delicious scoop of perfectly soft served ice cream from their favorite oldest ice cream spot. I have gone there a few times and there is always a line wrapped around the building of people waiting to get their fill and boy, it's worth it. Accepting cash only, you have your choice of vanilla, chocolate, strawberry or swirl with your choice of toppings, dips, or milkshakes. Definitely a great quick pit stop to get in your sweet tooth craving. read more

Deserves allll the hype. We went on a sunday afternoon, was not busy at all. Cute little shack and window to order from, really pretty place to eat ice cream outside and walk around. The workers were so sweet and gave us good suggestions! Now this place gets a big round of applause 5 stars from me because dairy is my public enemy #1 fr and their soft serve vanilla vegan ice cream was ..... honestly the best soft serve vegan ice cream i've ever had. But honestly just the fact that it was an OPTION already made me happy. Y'all don't understand, It's so hard to find dairy free options that isnt nasty crusty raspberry sorbet that no one orders anyway!!! So, I will dream of this for sure. My friends (my dairy friendly buddies) also enjoyed their picks and it satisfied the need for a sweet treat after a pretty big lunch we had. read more

I had heard great things about Dreamette for many months and was excited to finally try it today. I drove a good distance to get there. Unfortunately, after waiting 20 minutes in line in the heat, after I ordered, they told me that the store is cash only. it turns out that there is only a small yellow sign that is easy to miss that tells you that the store is cash only. You would think they would make it much more noticeable especially for first time visitors. I am writing this review so that others don't fall into the same trap and also become disappointed. I hope this helps! read more

Good golly miss molly, has the Earth been orbiting closer to the sun more so than usual? It's been scorching these last few days, which means more ice cream field trips are on the horizon. When you find yourself drifting off into space, dreaming of something cold hitting your lips, pivot your body in the direction of Dreamette, and run damnit. You don't have time to walk! Dreamette is a Jacksonville staple. One that operates the old school way. Yep, make sure you have cash on you. Although, rumor has it they might take credit cards now? Our last trip resulted in a Vanilla Chocolate Swirl. Medium sized ran us $3.46 and it was enough to split between the two of us. Now some of you know I grew behind an ice cream / soft serve counter, and if my two cents mean anything to any of you, Dreamette has my stamp of approval. Go back in time, wait in line, grab your pennies, and get some soft serve. It's good for the soul. And it'll cool you off, too! read more

A refreshing, creamy treat on a blazing, hot day! I love the different combinations of presenting this ice cream: waffle cones, waffle bowls, shakes, sundaes, etc. The prices are very inexpensive (around $12 for 4 people)! Tip #1 ... the cones are huge!! The kid's cone is as large as a "regular" cone from anywhere else! Beware of how much your tummy can truly handle! Although, my son says there is a separate tummy for ice cream LOL! Tip #2 ... try the chocolate ice cream in a cone dipped in peanut butter! Yuuuuuuummy! read more

***CASH ONLY*** I wonder what franchise Dreamette Ice Cream is, because they are very similar to a place called Dairy Palace in New Castle, DE. Both places look similar, offer similar treats, have very similar amazingly creamy soft serve, and crank out huge portions. Both are cash only, too (and that cash only rule is the only reason I can't give Dreamette 5 stars). The similar place in DE is often named the best ice cream in the state. I'm not sure if that has been awarded to Dreamette, but they are certainly deserving of high regards! As I said, the ice cream is thick and creamy, served with care, in large portions, with a ruffly soft serve twist up your cone top, much more exciting than DQ. This place was very crowded on a weekday evening in March, so I see it's super popular with Jax locals. Definitely a must-stop if you're anywhere nearby in Jacksonville. Make sure to bring cash! read more

CASH ONLY! Classic soft serve! Dreamette gives you those classic, walk-up ice cream shop vibes. PSA: their sizes are HUGE. A small ice cream cone looks more like a large! (Pictured) I gave four stars because while the ice cream is good, there really wasn't anything super special or different about it. The unique thing is how long the shop has been in Jax. You can choose from vanilla, strawberry or chocolate soft serve. They also have many flavors of shakes and even some slushy options. Bring your dog so they can get a pup cup! read more

This is one of the best soft served ice cream spots in town! They've been around for a long time, they're super fast, the concept is simple yet never disappointing. There was quite the line when we arrived & to be honest I even doubted standing in the heat. But I saw how fast they were moving customers along & that was a plus. By the time you're paying at the window, someone else is already handing you your order. I basically got a dipped cone & a sundae at the same time- which is pretty much off the menu & custom style, & they did not hesitate to do this for me. I got a vanilla as a chocolate-dipped cone, with hot fudge & cookie dough. Dee-lish! My husband got a banana pudding milkshake & it tastes just like what it says! Not only are they quick, they are also huge servings & are super affordable. We always get a small or even children's size. No sharing though! Plus why would you want to LOL. Downside for this location, they are cash only. read more

This place is amazing. It is cash only and the prices are extremely reasonable. Parking is limited and the lines start early. I tried to get the jump on the line on Sunday by getting their a few minutes before they opened............and as you can see, there was already quite a line. Got through in about 5 minutes so not at all bad. They have benches as well. I got a small chocolate cone for $2.60 (approx.) and I think it was well worth it. The taste kicked me back to childhood so i'll be very happy to support this business more moving forward. It was really yummy and I want to try more things as I go on. Also, customer service is good.

I absolutely love this little place. We go about once a month or so, especially in the summertime. There is a great park nearby so we will get our ice cream and go hang out at the park. I really love the dipped cones and appreciate those little cups they come in so your ice cream doesn't melt all over your hands! My favorite is the chocolate ice cream dipped in the peanut butter chocolate sauce. It is not super peanut-y but I love it anyway. They have the best shakes and sundaes too. When you get a brownie sundae, there are real brownies in there! Definitely a local favorite, there is often a line but they move pretty fast. Be sure to bring cash!

Pros: * Ice Cream - Smooth, well‑balanced ice cream with a strong selection of flavors * Toppings - UNLIMITED toppings available, add as many as they like * Service - Exceptionally friendly service during our visit, especially from the staff member working on 4/17 * Cleanliness - Clean counter area and efficient preparation Cons: * Seating - Limited indoor seating during peak times * Parking - It is San Marco square so parking is limited * Wait - Times may increase when larger groups arrive - especially if they are like us and have to make up your mind on the base flavor A well‑run ice cream shop with quality offerings, standout friendliness, and the fun option of unlimited toppings. A solid 4‑star experience.

My wife and I stopped by on a Saturday for a tour of the candy making facility, where we learned a lot about how the chocolates and other candies are made, and we were even able to design and enjoy our own custom chocolate bar. This place has everything that a fan of sweets and fun can enjoy - retro candy, a colorful environment, and enthusiastic staff. From our tour with Joy, our complimentary sea salt caramel from Barbara, everybody on staff provided a joyous afternoon. The tour is highly recommended, where you'll get to see how the product is made, and even get to see one of the original Golden tickets from the original Wonka movie. Pricing for the tour is very reasonable, and it's a great way to spend an afternoon. Parking was easy right around the corner from the front entrance.

The owners family has been in the candy business for years and he still works there everyday, that's awesome! :)) I'm glad we checked it out. Thank you Sweet Petes! You can trust me, I am a candy eating American. ;D

Dreamette Ice Cream Springfield

I can't believe we've gone this long without trying Dreamette!…read more We were in the Springfield area for dinner and decided to walk around the neighborhood to admire the beautiful homes. Of course, we had to end the evening with ice cream, so we purposely made our way to Dreamette. The line was long, which is always a good sign, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The menu has so many tempting options that I had a hard time deciding. Thankfully, the wonderful Mari came to the rescue! I asked about their bread puddings, and she recommended the pecan bread pudding, telling me it's made fresh from Biscotti's (if I remember correctly). That was all I needed to hear. Even though I was completely stuffed from dinner, I somehow managed to eat every last bite. It was rich, warm, buttery, and absolutely decadent. My husband took Mari's recommendation and ordered a vanilla mix-in with cookie dough and waffle cone pieces blended throughout instead of just a waffle bowl. He loved it and said the blended waffle cone added the perfect crunch in every bite. Now I'm wondering where the closest Dreamette is to us because this definitely won't be our last visit! Trust me, the line may look long, but it's absolutely worth the wait. Tip: If you go, don't be afraid to ask for recommendations. Mari steered us toward two fantastic choices, and we couldn't have been happier.

The old fire station transformed into a jewel box of deliciousness and fun. Then the secret ingredient, mentioned by many, how could you overlook it... the owner here, Mari, is a treasure. Not surprising that Mari was a nurse for many years. She cares for her customers in the same way a good nurse would, doing whatever it takes to make sure we're well cared for. When we arrived, she opened the cool little window and knew we hadn't been here before. It's obvious from watching the people coming in that she knows ALL of her customers... even remembering what they order too! She said, "Give me a second, I'm coming around to explain the menu." In a flash, she was out front, explaining the menu, how they created some of the specials, even offering a taste of a few things she said we had to try. What's going on? Is she for real? Can she be this dedicated? I was in awe of her kindness, caring, generosity and passion for what she is doing. No doubt she must have been an amazing nurse! Oh yeah, the ice cream. Fantastic! Delicious!! This must be what heaven is like.

My wife didn't like that there was so little pineapple in it. Our Napoleon pastry was pretty good, and I might get it again ($5 for a small one). We both preferred it to the brownie ($4). I don't particularly like brownies, but this one looked particularly appetizing, and the order-taker said it was one of her favorites, so we tried it. That was a mistake. Perhaps I should have tried the mini cream puffs, which are a favorite of mine (3 for $5), instead. Among other things I usually like, they had carrot cake for $7 and a cup of cheesecake for $9 (which seems steep). Their fruit shaped pastries looked beautiful (and a couple next to us said they loved the mango one), but were $12 each. Their fruit-topped Danishes also looked delicious, but weren't available any more at lunch time. They also offer milk shakes and loaded (sweet) croissants. There are only four stools here next to a bar, if you want to eat in. The bathroom was pretty good. I probably wouldn't come here again, but if I were in the area I might try some of their other pastries or sweet treats.
