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.

At first I was skeptical of trying Planet Smoothie because I just love my local, privately owned…read morejuice bar in High Point, but my daughters school gave us a coupon for a free kids smoothie so I thought I would check it out. Turns out, this place is awesome. Clean, great staff, easy to navigate ordering and a large variety of smoothies. I'm all about the Vitality Vibes smoothie for a healthy meal replacement or the Java the Nut for a sweeter, caffeinated boost. My daughters both love the Twiggy on the kids menu and I find it so great to slip in some hidden leafy greens. Planet smoothie has given me a great way to give my girls some added vitamins and nutrients when they reject steamed vegetables or salad. They're two and three and really only want snack food and chicken nuggets. As a mom concerned about health, that doesn't fly with me, so a big thank you to PS! This location is open 7am-8pm and it's so convenient to be able to order ahead from their app and have it ready for pickup when I get there. They have a great rewards program using your phone number and I've already received a number of free smoothies. If you like smoothies or think you might, give this place a try. I'm a huge fan!

The mango was very strong with hints of other tropical fruit flavors in it. I would get it again. The employees were welcoming and kind. They seem to work as a team. The ambience of this place is pretty nice, plenty of seats, and standing room for you to get in and get out.

My visit at tropical smoothie Café was a mild experience. The service was OK. It could have been…read morebetter if there was one person working the front register for the customers who came inside to place an order. The other customer service representative could have focused on online orders that came through. It appears that both customer service representatives were focused more on the online orders versus both indoor customers and online orders. I ordered a blueberry strawberry banana smoothie, that tasted like water down. I didn't taste the effects of the fruit, though it was a fruit smoothie. I went back inside the store to inform the staff. The representative asked if I had the smoothie before and she asked the staff member who made the smoothie how did she made. Finally, they remade my smoothie, and the smoothie tasted a little bit better, but you can tell that they put a lot of ice and water into their smoothies. I witnessed the customer service representative make the smoothie and they definitely use very little amounts of fruit inside their smoothies and a whole lot of ice and water to prepare their smoothies. The facility was clean. The ambience was very nice and calm. The staff were pleasant. Tropical smoothie Café does not offer a variety of sizes to choose from for the smoothies. I noticed on the menu there's one flavor that's offer for a kid size smoothie.

Welcome back, Local Roots! New owners, new location (about a mile from previous) right next to…read moreCiener Botanical and close by the Kernersville Farmer's Market. And a new trailer setup with outdoor chairs and tables. Some umbrellas would be nice but my friend & I just moved chairs to the shade of a tree, no problem. I do want to taste my way through their summer menu (particularly the blueberry French toast, which is a coffee drink with blueberry cold foam), but I actually asked for something off-menu, a lavender frappe with vanilla base -- if you've seen my cheers about Bitty & Beau's (miss having them right downtown WS), that's the one they named for me. They made it in no time flat (seriously, never had a beverage whipped up so quickly) and it tasted just like home.

Though I've never gotten food, there is a refrigerated area with sandwiches. The seating inside is very homey, with couches and separate rooms with tables and chairs. There are also options for purchasing local handmade items such as candles. My coffee here is always good and my daughter loved the strawberry frappe yesterday (caffeine free of course) and enjoyed the front porch sitting area. We were lucky enough to see the train pass by while we had our drinks! The staff are very friendly and chat personably with their customers while they prepare drinks! Parking is behind the building, so don't miss it!!
