This is my favorite place to get ice cream! Warm waffle cones and delicious homemade ice cream! What more could you ask for!?

The ice cream is sooo good! Great spot at the bottom of hanging rock park. Salted caramel was so tasty

This is a nice little place on the way to hanging rock state park, just around the corner right before you turn from state highway 89. You can't miss the homemade ice cream sign. It might be a few miles out from hanging rock state park gate. We stopped here on our way back home from the the state park. The kids loved the vanilla and chocolate ice cream (1 scoop here was bigger than cold stone 2 scoops!), and the coffee ice cream was out of this world. Tried their banana raspberry smoothie with almond milk and it was refreshing, after a long hike. The owner was very pleasant and friendly, and even came out to give a treat to our furry family member. Do stop by and support this local business! I couldn't find them on Yelp, so added their business as a customer on the site!

FOLLOW @zackaryeats on Instagram and Tiktok to discover more places in NC! Front Porch Creamy is one of the BEST ice cream shops in the greater Triad area! Located at the base of Hanging Rock State Park, their location is perfect for hikers who want to treat themselves to a sweet, delicious dessert after finishing the long hike. Even if you're not going to Hanging Rock, this ice cream shop is 100% worth checking out! Their homemade flavors are EXTREMELY RICH and have the PERFECT amount of creaminess. I ordered the Pumpkin Pie ice cream with a Red Velvet waffle cone. I was honestly SHOCKED at the INCREDIBLE DEPTH of the pumpkin pie flavor and was surprised that the waffle cone ACTUALLY TASTED like red velvet! If you love ice cream, Front Porch Creamery needs to be at the TOP of your list!

We visited this place for the first time after a hike on hanging rock around 3 on a weekday and they were not too busy. There isn't a lot of parking on the pavement but they do also have grass to park on. It's definitely the best waffle cone I've ever had! The ice cream is also amazing. They have such a great selection of ice creams, shakes and smoothies. The lady who served us was also very polite. Came here again Sunday July 9th at 4:40 and yes they are busy! But we got our ice cream very quickly! Another thing to mention is the smell as soon as you get up to the porch, it smells like heaven!!! The vanilla ice cream is probably the best I've ever had and their cones are still amazing!

Very cute ice cream spot at the base of Hanging Rock Park! You park directly in front of the store which is pretty small and limited. Nice to see that they hand make all of their ice cream and waffle cones. They had a great variety of ice cream flavors, waffle cone flavors, and their prices are very affordable. My partner and I both got a single scoop and felt like it was equivalent to double/triple scoops given at ice cream chains. We could have definitely shaved 1 single scoop together. Service was very pleasant an friendly. We got their seasonal pumpkin pie ice cream in a red velvet waffle cone (overall 8/10). The ice cream had great pumpkin pie spice flavor and was VERY creamy. The red velvet flavor of the waffle cone wasn't very strong but was made fresh and very crispy. I got their mint chocolate chip in a chocolate waffle cone (7/10), not my favorite since the chocolate chips were like very large cookie-chocolate chips but the ice cream was still creamy and minty. Would come back again! Last time I was there, it seems like they had pretty limited hours of 12pm-4pm most days of the week and 1pm-6pm one weekend day. Wish I took a picture but glad we caught them before they closed for the day.

Wow, the ice cream is great but the star of the show is their homemade cones. Near the entrance to Hanging Rock State Park.

Great spot to get some great Colombo brand soft serve frozen yogurt. This is not one of those…read moreyogurt bars where you fill your own cup and load it up with however much toppings you want and then get charged by the weight of what you built. It's a small yogurt shop that's inside of the Family Fitness Gym, you don't have to be a gym member to git on some of this awesome yogurt, the gym and the yogurt shop are owned and ran by same folks. I say small because they just have 3 tables if you want to go inside and have your yogurt, but not many do, they have a drive-thru which is where most of the fro-yo action is taking place, it's very convenient to drive up to the window, get your yogurt and roll on. They always have 6 flavors on tap. Chocolate, Vanilla & Tuxedo Twist (choc/van swirl) which are always available and 3 flavors that change weekly. My personal favorites are Keylime, Cherry Cheesecake & Peach, but there are many more that rotate around. You can get your yogurt in a regular cone, waffle cone (which they make), or in a cup (small, medium, large). They do offer a handful of toppings like that candied walnut stuff, chopped peanuts, m&m's, crushed Heath Bars and a few others. Toppings are $.65 for one scoop or $1.20 for two scoops. They also make hot fudge sundaes and banana splits using their yogurt. Right now with the major road construction project being done on Freeway Dr, their main entrance is closed, you must turn on Front St. beside the Freeway Mart gas station & use their rear entrance.

I don't know if the owners of the Icecream Factory know this, but the Greensboro location is the…read moretop-rated ice cream joint in the entire country! It was pretty simple for me to discover this. I just took 12 hours on a Saturday to read every online list and poll of best U.S. ice creameries, placed them all in an Excel spreadsheet, and averaged their Google, Yelp, and TripAdvisor crowd-sources ratings. And the Icecream Factory came out on top! So naturally, I had to make the seven-hour pilgrimage from Nashville, Tennessee, to Greensboro just to see for myself. And yes, I get it. When I visited, they had 66 flavors!! And 12 of those are dairy free. Going with my favorite, the classic mint chip, the ice cream quality was evident! Having eaten ice cream in all 50 states, I've had maybe two scoops of ice cream in my lifetime that were better. And that's saying something. But here's what puts the Icecream Factory over the top! Creativity! The selection is massive. The plant-based and oat-based options are significant. They have very clever dishes like ice cream tacos, ice cream boats including banana splits, stackers (kind of like a sundae on steroids), loaded shakes, ice cream nachos using waffle cone chips, brownies, bars, and over 50 free toppings! I dipped my scoop of mint chip in chocolate sprinkles and that took it to a whole new level!! Confession: It was so good, I went back to the counter for an encore performance. But my stomach can't handle too much dairy. So I went with an ice cream taco using their oat-based Biscoff bliss ice cream, a hard butterscotch shell, and their coconut-based whipped cream, all that sprinkled with crumbled Biscoff cookies and an entire Biscoff cookie intact. What a masterpiece!! Yes, even if you're lactose intolerant, you CAN have your ice cream and eat it too! The two young ladies working that day were very friendly and helpful. And the atmosphere is clean and trendy with great music as well. I highly recommend America's best ice creamery!! Chalk up another five-star review for the champions!

Walk up window…read moreservice at this roadside food shack with the menu board just to the right of the window, place your order, pay and get a buzzer. It goes off when your food is ready to go. The young lady behind the counter the evening of our visit was kind, professional and helpful. We had a couple questions about the whats and hows, she answered them with a smile. There is no real area to sit and eat here, so its mostly take it and go. A handful of benches but no table tops. We ordered a couple "hunks" of pizza (basically a quarter of a pie) and ice cream with a soda and tea. Simple easy and inexpensive. We sat on the outside bench while she prepared our pizzas, once ready the buzzer went off and I retrieved our boxed quarter pies from the service window. She made our ice creams in just a couple minutes and we were on our way back to our place. The food is simple basic and good, the service friendly and kind. 3.5 Stars rounded up for the kind friendly service 01237

Would like to see some out of the weather comfort seating some day. But I'm ok with what is there right now. Ok Pinnacle Food folks, would you like to see a good Seafood Restuarant like in Rural Hall or Walkertown? I would. Greeks take notice, we want you to come to check out the realestate? There are many locations that are available. Anyway come get yourself some pie for right now.
