Great chocolate peanut butter ice cream! The best I've ever had. Got some sweet treats from the counter as well. So good!!!

Stopped into Kilwins the other day while up at Bridge Park and it was the cutest little shop with the best smells! They make all of their own chocolates and offer a big selection of yummy treats. They have a bunch of ice creams to pick from which is why I went, and I ended up getting a seasonal flavor - the peppermint! It was good but honestly not my absolute favorite peppermint I've ever had. I'll definitely be back though, next time I'll be sure to snap more pics and maybe stay and enjoy my treat in-store. read more

Who doesn't like ice cream, fudge, caramel apples, and chocolates? Head over to Kilwins in Dublin. The company started in 1947 in Petosky, Michigan, and they have a fit for any treat taste. I eat the rich and smooth Salty Carmel ice cream. I highly recommend. I will definitely return to Kilwins for more treats. read more

Kilwins Ice Cream - Chocolate - Fudge - Scrumptious - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Dublin, Ohio

A relatively new spot I came across when I was getting dinner across the street, I'm glad I decided to stop in! The interior is adorable and literally everything they sell looks SO good. They have caramel apples, fudge, taffy, ice cream, chocolates, ice cream cakes, and so many other little treats. Customer service is very friendly and chatty! Helpful but not overly attentive, quick with a recommendation if you ask. They had several samples set out too when I was there. This seems like a great place to get special treats, there were seasonal and holiday themed treats and a large variety of gift sets. From Mother's Day to treats for your kids' easter basket, Kilwins has you covered! read more

I'll have to come back to check this spot out again. I saw a friend of mine post an enticing photo on Instagram the other day. This prompted me to make a visit out here. When you first arrive. You are greeted by an awesome aroma of chocolaty goodness outside of the door. Once you go in it's like the saying "a kid in a candy store!" The caramel apples are the first things that you see. Next you are exposed to the array of chocolate treats. I got a cookies and cream milkshake, caramel apple and coconut clusters. I will say that the milkshake took quite a while due to them training a new employee. For whatever reason she was having a hard time scooping the ice cream out of the container. It took them 8 minutes to make the shake. Once I got it. It was pretty good. The ice cream they use is their Kilwin's brand ice cream. The coconut clusters were pretty great. It was my plan to save some for the next day but I ate them all in one sitting. read more

Kilwins Ice Cream - Chocolate - Fudge - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Dublin, Ohio

My mother in law and I decided to swing through here before watching an OSU game at Urban's. (We decided to have ice cream before dinner...shhh)! It was great! The aroma when you walk is enough to make you want to try everything in the place! All of the fresh, homemade sweets are perfectly lined and displayed throughout the place. My mother in law was extremely impressed. After looking at all of the goodies, we decided on ice cream! I got the peppermint ice cream in a waffle cone and my mother in law got the blueberry waffle ice cream in a waffle cone! They were delicious! The waffle cones seemed as if they had just been made fresh as they were crisp and warm. We sat in the "dining room" next to the room with all the goodies and was able to enjoy a nice, quiet conversation while also enjoying our sweet, sweet ice cream! It was seriously amazing! So amazing that I referred a couple people to Kilwins while watching the OSU game across the street at Urban's! I will definitely be back the next time I'm on that side of town! Keep up the great work! read more

Given the line out the door, I expected their ice cream to be AMAZING but it was just OK. I did not find it as rich and creamy as Graeters or Jenis. I would even prefer custard from Culvers over this. I will say however that the chocolates and marzipan that we bought were delicious. That is definitely their strong suit. The ice cream is not worth the line or the price. read more

Yay, another delicious chocolate spot in Columbus! Plus, they have chocolate! The person working when I came in was super friendly about me asking questions (and sampling!). Get here now to try everything salted caramel - you won't regret it. In addition to my ice cream, I bought a chocolate covered s'more. What does that mean, you may wonder? It's exactly what you think - two graham crackers with a marshmallow in the middle and the entire thing is covered in chocolate. Pro tip: eat the corners off the graham crackers first before trying to bite into it like a sandwich. Also, have napkins available. Make sure you go in with a "treat yourself" mentality because the calorie count is listed next to everything (sweats nervously). :) read more

After a trip to Fado's my wife had a hankering for something sweet so we popped into Kilwins, It's your typical ice cream/ chocolate store large variety of flavors nice addition to Bridge Park. read more

Great ice cream. I had the coconut. Only one unisex bathroom. No urinal. Was out of paper towels. 8:00 Sunday evening. Almost out of tp. I informed the register gal and she appreciated the info. I give it 3 bowls out of five. Seating for 5? There is no seating outside. There is also no trash cans outside anywhere around. I was told people in Dublin don't create trash LOL. Overall it's a nice area with bars and restaurants read more

When you think of a chocolatier you think of am presentation, the quality of the craftsmanship, the aroma of chocolate in the air that recognizes where exactly you are. I visited this location today and all of things including the personalized and professional experience of the management and staff to make recommendations but also ask questions about my flavor pallet to ensure that I left with hand crafted chocolates. I didn't catch the name of the manager and employee who assist me but recognize great customer and request experience. Thanks again for an amazing experience read more

So I'm not an ice cream person admittedly but after a nice dinner out with friends on one of the first warm nights we opted to find a place for dessert and my friend mentioned Kilwins. We walked into a brightly lit chocolate and ice cream shop and seeing all of the different type of chocolate was my chocolate loving dream. After perusing a large selection of ice cream and sherbets, I opted for the salted caramel chocolate ice cream. I ordered a single scoop in a cup and the lady scooped a very generous scoop of ice cream in a cup. We went to the seating area which was empty when we sat down to enjoy our after dinner sweet treat. The ice cream was delicious, smooth, creamy, and chocolatey with chunks of salted caramel. I think I may have gotten converted to loving ice cream again! My only complaint is the calorie counts on each of the items front and center with each item... but that's more just because of my own guilty conscious and that quickly disappeared after the first spoonful! read more

This place has everything! I've only been there by myself or with my boyfriend on a whim, so I've nver tried to order ahead or order a large quantity. What I've have bought, though was amazing. The price is a little high, but it is definitely right for a place like this. Their chocolate is on par with Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, and that used to be my favorite place. It is right in the Short North, but there is a parking garage less than one minute away that is cheap and the ideal place to park in that area. If you're going to Forno or another place down that way, check Kilwin's out! If you're wanting something sweet but don't know what you want, go here. If you want to get an assortment of sweets for someone's birthday or a holiday, go here. Just go here and give it a try. read more

Came up on Yelp as a place that served pie but instead it was chocolates and ice cream. The shop was very nicely done like an old fashioned candy shop. The ice cream was very good and people working were very nice! read more

Amazing variety of desserts. Prices are lil high but worth trying. We loved the turtle dessert and lil chocolates read more

Absolutely loved the atmosphere of this place! We could smell the fresh waffle cones from the parking garage right around the corner, and upon walking in we were immediately greeted by an employee who was hand-dipping cherries in chocolate. We were helped by Libbey, who was super sweet to give us lots of samples and answered all of our questions about where Kilwin's originated and the correct pronunciation of "Mackinac". Overall, it was a cute little place to visit and the service was excellent, but I probably won't return again for ice cream. I felt like the flavor wasn't really anything special. --Kayles read more

Amazing little chocolate and ice cream store. Everything we bought was delicious! I loved the chocolate covered mint Oreo cookie!! And my daughters ice cream was super good as well read more

Giving five stars after a brief but pleasant first visit while in the area for work. I enjoyed watching some chocolate covered Oreos be made and checking out the fudge, carmel apples, and assorted chocolate concoctions. I got a sea salt carmel dark chocolate covered marshmallow (lots of descriptors there... can't promise they're in the right order). Delightful, decadent treat: rich in flavor and great texture. Awesome place to check out after a meal or day of conference meetings! read more

Kilwins has great ice cream, fudge and candy. Anything sweet, they have. Upon entering the door, you're greeted with friendly welcome and free samples. I personally recommend trying the pistachio ice cream. This place has something for the entire family. read more

Working in Columbus for three weeks and googled fudge store and this one was closet's to me. So I drove ti the store purchased fudge I usually can only get in Pigeon Forage. And it was awesome . I stopped by again on my way out out of town and purchased mire fudge chocolate caramel apples and other goodies . The you g lady i met the first visit was great, friendly, polite knowledgeable of products and offered great suggestions. My second visit i met the owner, and what a pleasure meeting here and discussing the store and products. I highly recommend any one with a sweet tooth or looking fir something special stop by here you won't regret. Rick P read more

Spectacular chocolate and ice cream. Dreadful service. We've been to that store several times. Just for the products they produce and carry. Unfortunately, There is absolutely no effort in pleasing the customer. No "good morning" or "good afternoon", no "thank you" or "how can I help you ?". It's been like that since they opened. If it wasn't for their products, that are very expensive, but excellent, I wouldn't be back at that store. read more

Kilwins Ice Cream - Chocolate - Fudge - Receipt - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Dublin, Ohio

How fun to find a Kilwin's in Ohio! I'm familiar with Kilwin's location in Saratoga, NY and had no idea that they had a location in Columbus! We'll have to come back the next time we visit friends in CBus! Kilwin's is well known for its chocolates, but my favorite items they have for sale are their delicious ice creams and chocolate covered apples (in a wide variety!). The shop has a nostalgic feel from the black and white tiling and from their traditional chocolates. They definitely up the ante with the quality, and their diverse array of offerings beyond basic chocolates will surprise you. I highly recommend trying their sea salt caramel covered apples (I actually slice mine up to make it easier to eat-the caramel and chocolate coatings are decadently thick and can be a little difficult to eat like a regular apple!). I also am a huge fan of their cookie dough and cookies and cream ice creams, of course scooped into their signature waffle cones-which, by the way, are made fresh in house and have 'Kilwin's' stamped on them! This location also has a side room perfect for parties, meeting up with friends, or for a quick sit and chocolate fix. Definitely worth checking out if you've never been to a Kilwin's! read more

Cute little chocolate shop on Bridge Street a few doors down from Local Cantina.. checked it out after an early Sunday taco fest @ Local (with mustache rides of course)... have an array of options that you don't see @ a lot of specialty chocolate/candy shops.. after a long debate and trying a variety of sweets (3 types of fudge).. we decided on chocolate covered nutter butters (delicious), chocolate covered mint Oreos (better than Girl Scout thin mints)...dark chocolate and milk chocolate almond bark - a winner ... and sea salt caramel covered marshmallow(OMG) and crispy (also good)... cute little sitting area parlor next to the shop .. a bit pricey on some items but some items unique so worth the cost .. next visit to Bridge St corridor put Kilwins chocolate shop on your to do list after a relaxing lunch/dinner or drinks .. I think you will enjoy your experience ...they also make homemade fudge and serve ice cream and yogurt so a lot of options for the family!!! read more

Stopped in tonight and were excited to enjoy some ice cream and purchase other chocolates as the store is inviting and cheery. We stood in line for approximately 10 min and no one waited on us or acknowledged our existence. There were probably 10 or so people in the store and only two workers. After we were skipped over we decided to leave. Seems like it's a nice idea for Bridge Park but the execution is lackluster. read more

I don't get it. People are all gaga over a chain ice cream place. I had a few sample and that was plenty, zero desire to order a dish of anything. I guess it would be good ice cream if you were stuck in bridge park without a car or feet. Jeni's is just across the river or if you go a bit farther up sawmill and hard rd there is Mardi gra. The banana ice cream had minimal nana flavor and kind of like saccharine aftertaste, it just wasnt good. I honestly would go to udf over this, and that's on hard rd too. read more

Kilwins is always a perfect stop at Bridge Park after a yummy meal or coffee. Their fudge is incomparable (love the peanut butter) and their fresh a la carte chocolates are always a hit. They even have their own ice cream! My go-to hits are their caramels and their chocolate covered cherries! read more

Ice cream was average. The fact that they hadn't considered how to add hot fudge to a bowl with 2 scoops of ice cream is mind boggling. After going back and forth with the lady she used a container that the waffle bowl usually sits in so the hot fudge wouldn't run all over. Add to that the strong smell of sewer in the seating area, doubt we'll be back. read more

This is my go to spot for all sweets and treats. They will always give you a free sample of fudge, and let you sample ice cream. The best ice cream there is the Chocolate Peanut Butter. SO delicious. There are tons of grab and go chocolates as well as a display case with anything you could imagine dipped in Chocolate. Dark Chocolate Sea Salt Caramel Oreos! read more

CREAMY, DREAMY chocolates! Smooth and silky. I wanted to sample a small cut of their milk chocolate to see how long it took to melt in my mouth, but they don't have samples of that. Hurray, one of the nice gals behind the counter gladly took a square from the casing and cut off a sliver. Devine! Great melt time, no "film" that had to dissolve before the chocolate began to melt in my mouth. There's so many to pick from, it took me a minute, but decided on a Buckeye (duh!), milk chocolate cashew tuttle, a hazelnut truffle, a Bavarian cream, one other chocolate something-or-other, and one homemade caramel. PS, amongst other things, they make their own caramel from scratch, daily, using giant copper kettles. I can wait to work my way thru these delicacies! Worth noting that free parking is readily available on the street, and there's a parking garage just across the street. I'm looking forward to my next stop in, as trying a few other new chocolates always makes a day 100% better. read more

I love the caramel apple here. So much better than grocery store caramel apple - day and night difference. Most of the items are freshly made at the store everyday. read more

Go to Johnson's, Jeni's or Grater's... Killwins is a customer service nightmare! My wife's birthday, I called to ensure they had the cake. $40 for a 6" ice cream cake?! ...but she loves their toasted coconut. I opened the cake box to find that it was most likely left out for a while then re- frozen. The cake was destroyed, and I had guests. I called the store and Mark "the manager" offered me a full refund for a cake that had been destroyed before I bought it. He said " I'll give you a full refund, keep the cake" after consuming the edible portions of the "cake", I got another call from Mark saying that the owner wants the full cake back for a refund. "But you said to keep it!?! Did you not know the policy?" He came back with "no, I'm new here" Basically He lied to me and the owner. After several hours, and waiting for a call back, I was finally talking to the owner, Ernie, who basically has zero experience with customer satisfaction and went back on the word Mark "the manager" and offered me a $40 gift card for a store I will never visit again. Ernie said that Mark was not a manager... so that equates to no manager on the premises. He then called me a liar... I will NEVER visit Kilwins again. They are a pack of liars and thieves. read more

This whole Bridge Park area is being beautifully developed. To see Kilwins here was very exciting and open late!! We needed our ice cream fix. It was perfect. The Carmel apples make you drool. And to think--they started out in a little tourist town called Petoskey, Michigan. Very yummy. read more

So happy this place opened up in the Bridge Park Street area ! The staff were super helpful and the selection is great! They have pretty much anything chocolate related you want including a decent ice cream selection. Will definitely be back for more! Great to drop in after lunch or dinner for a sweet treat! :) read more

Confections were adorable! Halloween themed treats were everywhere and the ice cream was good too. I got a small scoop of toasted coconut and salted caramel chocolate which was primarily chocolate flavored. It was a great combination and even though I was expecting a small scoop for $5, I feel like the amount easily could've been called a medium serving. The sales clerk said they make most of their ice creams in house, I didn't ask which. The apples and chocolate dipped Rice Krispie treats on a stick looked so fun so a few of the people that I was with, bought one for their kids. It also looks like they're opening up an indoor seating area in the near future. read more

With covid spots on the floor and identified lines for ice cream and another for chocolate not even the employees followed the rules. I'm older with a cane and I'm standing 1st in line for ice cream while 6 other people wandered in and were served before I was. Two handicap parking spaces up the street and around the corner with an extra 6" between to park while people parked on the street with 3/4 car lengths between each car. I got a scoop of the Apple pie ice cream after reading wonderful reviews; It was merely vanilla with 2 small pieces of what seemed to be Apple pie filling for $5.00; Caramel apples are $8 a piece. I won't be back. ADDENDUM: On my return home, opened my purchase to see they didn't even give me what I asked for. I requested a caramel apple with peanuts; I got a caramel apple ... no peanuts. Just caramel. I'm removing the one star I rated this place, but I cannot post my review without it. Shame. read more

By far one of the best ice cream centers in Columbus...you should try the Marsh Mallow flavor

Best ice cream around! We found them in FL and TN and we're so excited they're finally in Ohio. They're so soft and best texture.

I love Kilwins, there is one in Frankfort, MI. I have never had a bad experience there. So many amazing flavors. I had originally wanted a Kilwins in Ohio so I could go whenever and eat the sweet treats and ice cream. I went with my mom and the ice cream was extremely soft, the apples looked pre-packaged, and the workers we NOT kind whatsoever. The one in MI has larger single scoops as well. I was NOT impressed. I wish it had been a better experience. read more
