We LOVE this place for some Good O Ice Cream. Before going home after our Stay-cations here at Ponce Inlet every summer, we always stop in with our sweet tooth..lol Waffle Cone with Butter Pecan & Strawberry ice cream for me please and it's always Perfect!! The whole staff are amazing and so friendly and nice. You can order outside at the window.. or go inside and order. There's so much to look at inside, from pictures all over the walls from kids at surf camp, to tables of games to play as you wait for your order or you're enjoying your ice cream. And just the decorations inside are definitely fun to look at as well. Music playing inside & lights, Just a homie vibe. I love it. Highly recommend. 5- read more

Ho Daddy O's Surf Cream - Waffle Cone with Pecan and Strawberry Ice cream. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Ponce Inlet, Florida

Great ice cream. Service is amazing. Wouldn't want ice cream from anywhere else! The atmosphere is amazing and it's truly an extraordinary place. read more

I've been here a few times over the last couple years. Pretty consistent and the employees are always nice no matter when I go. Stopped it tonight and it was a good ending to the night. Reasonable prices and great outside area for the kids and outside seating. Doesn't feel cramped which makes it's even better. My kids are able to move around and eat their ice cream which is a win. I was too keen on my flavor of ice cream tonight I wish j would have stuck with more classic option but I'm not one to request something else. I'll still continue to come to this local spot due to convenience, prices and employees. read more

Good ice cream but they should do a better job publishing their hours. We had guests and online it said the ice cream store was open but, when they got there it was closed??? read more

I went with my family Saturday-march 8 the employees were so patient and very sweet. The ice cream was so good and I highly recommend.

Best ice cream in town Great cheerful service with a smile Positive vibes all the time read more

On top of good ice cream, shakes, and arctic curls... Every time we got to the beach, it is a family tradition to stop for ice cream before heading back home. This time I left my wallet. Sure it was frustrating that I had to drive over an hour for my mistake but I am thankful for their honesty & safe-keeping. Love, a forever customer read more

Cute ice cream and snack shop. Service is very nice and the ice cream is awesome! They offer both indoor and outdoor seating

My family and I come to Ponce Inlet every summer and ho daddy os never fails to deliver the best ice cream! The staff is amazing and the hospitality is unbeatable. Definitely recommend after a hot day at the beach:) read more

Ho Daddy's is a great ice cream shop. The staff is great, the ice cream is delicious and the location is perfect!

My uncle loves it but I haven't been there! He likes the the Blackberry cobbler ice cream especially when they serve it upside down and not to his forehead unlike Dairyland which will lead me to my next review for them. It is not good for them. read more

This is a fun place to visit when we are in Ponce Inlet. The ice cream is good, but I think it's the music and atmosphere I enjoy the most. It's in a courtyard with many benches and picnic tables. As you'd expect, the decor is colorful and beach themed. The service is cheerful and casual. We had to wait to order for just a minute while the server ran next door for change. We often are in the area in the winter, and they haven't been open. Now, in April, they are open on weekends. I'd strongly recommend checking whether they are open before stopping by. read more

Delicious ice cream, friendly staff. Especially the owners daughter, Shane. Very knowledgeable and friendly. Also, really appreciated the gluten and dairy free shaved ice option, as well as the food. Inside of the shop is super cool. Overall fun atmosphere. read more

This place is amazing. One of the servers named Shane had the best service and always greeted her customers with a smile. 10/10 would come back. great experience! read more

I live in Ponce Inlet and would like to to say I like this place but they make it difficult. First, they have no website or at least nothing you can find via Google, not even showing on Google maps when you put in "ice cream" in Ponce Inlet? Who does their marketing? They don't have a valid phone number or at least if they do they never seem to answer it? They are open sporadically, very frustrating. They take cash only? That's pretty much saying to everyone yes we're cheap skates and/or we don't pay taxes, which is it? Seriously I can use my card on vending machine but you guys can't figure this out or don't want to? read more

LOVE this place! It was right by our condo on AIA next to the 7-11. Lots of flavors for Italian ice, frozen yogurt, shakes, sundaes, hot dogs, etc....It's a walk-up window and there are lots of tables and chairs for outdoor seating, even hula hoops. My only gripe is that we've been coming to the condo for 3 years now and had no idea it was there! It needs some serious signage so folks know it's there!! read more

See all

Another great experience, fast and friendly service. Prices are very fair and portions are generous. They even gave our dog a nice serving of vanilla ice cream with two milk bones! read more

Great little place to walk to after a day at the beach. Shaved ice, ice cream and soft serve.

Great community and even better service! Fun place to bring your family and just hang out!!

Fantastic service and staff! Great ice cream! Lots of options, there is something for everyone! They even have lactose free and no sugar added ice cream. A great family place, there are lots of games and activities. read more

It is a shame that I am only in this part of town every easter. I always take my kids and nephews here for ice cream. They typically have a fantastic collection of flavors and the staff is very friendly, knowledgeable and os great with the kiddos! I will always be there when I am around and I recommend this place w/o any hesitation. I shall return. read more

So I'm not in favor of politics in my ice cream. I couldn't even order a scoop because of the amount of time it took for the (very nice) lady to come to window to serve us. But while we waited we read & saw all the political paraphernalia. Even with all that I still wanted to order the Salted Caramel & Key Lime BUT I then I read nasty comments on their purposefully posted advertisement & told the nice lady "No Thank, I'm sorry I can't support this business" #leavepoliticsoutoficecream read more

This has been my family's first time in Daytona area, and we weren't sure of any good places to go. Heard from a friend that this place was good so we had to check it out! We have gone back for ice cream 3 nights in a row and will probably go back tomorrow!!! Definitely would recommend! Only rated 4 stars out of 5 because they only take cash wish can be inconvenient and there's cute outdoor area but the benches aren't clean. Other than that, we absolutely loved it! read more

Wonderful service and great ice cream for a good price!! We got three smalls (2 scoops each) for $10, what a steal! The atmosphere is really great, plenty of seating, bike racks, and activities for kids like hula hoops and sidewalk chalk. We will definitely return and I highly recommend the Seagull Food: vanilla ice cream with caramel swirl, chocolate chips and cookie dough, yum!! read more

Dont get me wrong, love this place, we "used" to go once a week. They dont have a phone number at the business and the teenagers there close whenever they feel like it. which is frusterating when u call the owner( the phone number listed) and he tells you they are open until a vertion time and they close an hour early bc they are bored basically. Ive went a few times with great weather and they decided to close. waste of gas and angry kids when you dont know if they will be open or not!!!!!!!!!!!!!So to drive 30 minutes bc of the atmosphere and be let down to have to go to dairy queen really sucks, maybe they should get better staff!!!! read more

Loved it! Just stopped in after dinner. Had the Cookie Monster and Gator Tracks flavors.... delicious ice cream! The perfect place for dessert. read more

Great little ice cream place with a very cool surfing ambience. Be advised that they only accept cash, and seating is all outside.

This ice cream window shop is okay but they've stopped offering our favorites. Even tho their sign lists Fried Ice Cream, its no longer available. A BIG disappointment. Mgmt: please bring back Fried Ice Cream and Fresh Squeezed Lemonade. read more

A great find for the family! For those living or staying in and around Ponce Inlet, there is finally a great local ice cream shop! This true surf inspired shop serves great ice cream, Italian Ice, shakes, etc. Went at sunset and it was beautiful out. It is a walk up window, and is in new building next to the 7-11. There are a few picnic tables, and plenty of chairs set around. Perfect place for the kids to run around, play with the hula hoops that are out there, and listen to the old school surfing music playing. Importantly, the owner and staff are super cool and friendly. We will be going back often! Great place to replace the calories burned riding the waves all day on the beaches of Ponce! read more

Wanted to try this place bc they have shaved ice. We got there 15 mins before they closed and was told the machine was broken. Got ice cream instead which was fine. The young ladies working were not friendly and seemed annoyed with working. This was on 4th of July. I'll go back to see if shaved ice machine is working but I wasn't wowed! read more

This place is garbage. It takes forever for you to get served even without a line. The ice cream itself is... is... I don't even know how to describe it. How do you mess up ice cream? Look for your cool treats somewhere else. Anywhere else. read more

Cow licks has some competition!! The hand dipped ice cream i had here was great!!! Not a big fan of the hot fudge or butterscotch toppings and the cherry's were not very tasty for some reason but we will be back for more Ho daddy o's!! Some of the best ice cream I've had in the Daytona area and the kids LOVED the shaved ice flavors. They even opted out of smores after trying the shaved ice at ho daddy o's! Wow! read more

Mediocre Ice Cream. Soft serve was melting as she handed me the cone. They are using poor quality ingredients. Not worth a return trip.

What a great place! Such a fun and unique place with a nice outdoor area to enjoy your time. Great food and ice cream. If you feel like takin a trip back to the Beach Boys days, this is the place! read more
