My family and I went for the first time and I'm glad that we did. Definitely somewhere we'd go back to. The ice cream was good, but it was more so because Jordan made our experience even better! She was warm, welcomed us with a smile and so very kind. My 4 year old loves ice cream but I went with my newborn and after not being able to have ice cream for 9 months, this was just what I needed. Thank you Jordan read more

This was my first time being there.it was a tiny, quiet spot, so I didn't expect anything too crazy. But my god that ice cream was so good and tasted so fresh. The girl working the counter was very sweet and patient while we looked at the options, so I'm thankful for that. Plus she let us sample the ones we were interested in. I'm definitely gonna try to go back. I took a picture but I can't find it for the life of me. read more

Had the reverse parent trap which was great, Oreos and the peanut butter swirl where in abundance! My boy got the vanilla and said it was especially creamy and delicious read more

Every town has their local ice cream shop and this is THAT place in St. Charles. They have a pretty organized system with a line that routinely runs out the door. Compared to other places, their flavor options are a bit more limited but their sizes are a bit larger. They have some cute photo spots and some outdoor seating options (but if it's crowded you're super close to plenty of outdoor seating options along the river too). This time around I tried the white chocolate salty oatmeal cookie flavor (the chunks are great but minimal - 5/10) and the peanut butter (loved this one 9/10). read more

I don't usually eat a lot of ice cream, but after a bad experience at another local spot (Alt Brewing), I needed a pick-me-up. Kimmer's delivered. The Parent Trap was recommended, and it did not disappoint -- creamy, rich, and full of flavor. Sometimes simple recommendations really are the best ones. Great ice cream, great vibe. Definitely worth the stop. read more

Very good ice cream make from scratch you can taste all the flavors I would definitely recommend checking this place out.

My husband and I came here after dinner. Always like to support a local business. As usual there was a line but it moves very fast. We got cookies and cream and cookie dough ice cream. Pretty standard ice cream. It was pretty chilly out and there were a lot of river bugs flying around outside so we were hoping to sit inside but it was busy and there's not much inside seating. We opted to go back to the car and enjoy our treat. read more

1st time visors last night. 4 people picked up 4 cones/5 scoops. Everything was delicious and the crew working tonight were amazing and helpful! Will return and/or try other locations. Highly recommend! Staff 5/5 Ice Cream/Cones 5/5 Location/Facility 4.5/5 Price/Value 4.5/5 read more

Great ice cream. Great service. Good value. Walkable location. Nice decor. Always clean.

My absolute favorite ice cream shop in my hometown has to be Kimmer's. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by the sweet scent of freshly baked waffle cones and a bright ambiance that makes you feel like a kid in a candy shop. The staff is always so patient, taking the time to help you decide on the perfect flavor and are more than happy to offer samples of all their unique ice cream flavors. My go-to choice is the Parent Trap ice cream; a heavenly blend of cookies and cream with swirls of peanut butter. It's absolutely delicious and is the only place (that I know of) I can get it exactly as is, without any need for customization. I also always get it in a fresh waffle cone to complete the full experience. It is the best treat in the summer, but my friends and I like to go all year round. read more

loved the staff! everything went smooth, & ice cream was good:) i recommend this! 5/5

Bug in my ice-cream cream. When told to the workers... they continued without any remorse. Yuk. I won't be going there ever again! read more

Kimmer's Ice Cream - Bug in my ice cream- no thank you. Yuk! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - St. Charles, Illinois

The cookies and cream ice cream is my absolute favorite. Kimmer's is special because it's rare that I don't feel bad after eating ice cream. This is a testament to the quality of the ingredients they use. The service is great and the area around the shop is quite nice to walk around. read more

4 stars. Summer time and ice cream always a treat. The ice cream at Kimmer's is rich and creamy and you can sample any of the flavors before you decide. Located downtown St Charles across from Moto Imoto. They have ice cream cakes which I haven't tried but next time. At this location I had the red, white, and blue which was good but I would have liked more textures to it like actual bigger chunks of cheesecake. My friend have lemon sorbet which was refreshing. Overall seating is limited but service was good. read more

Smallest single scoop of ice cream EVER!! Ended up going to Kilwin's for a second, much more substantial, scoop. Update. I appreciate the response from the owner. I wish I had taken a picture of our scoops to show how small it was. Maybe it was a mixup by the server? Maybe someone new? read more

Stopped in for ice cream after dinner and got the gelato. My husband got two almond ice cream scoops in a cone. Everything was pretty good but there were not many options to pick from or places to sit. Would recommend taking a stroll down the block on the trail by the river if the weather is nice enough! read more

While the service was great and the place was spotless, we thought for $15 we didn't get very much ice cream. My wife always gets chocolate peanut butter, but this had very little peanut butter, probably 95% chocolate. We might think twice before going to Kimmers again. read more

Cute little shop on St Charles. They had a great selection of ice cream, they didn't have the chocolate hazelnut as I had hoped, but everything there was great. I had the coconut ice cream in a cup and the portions are massive, even for a small. It's delicious and I was pleased! I knock this to 4 stars because the service wasn't as great as I expected. Maybe because it was a Friday night and the employees were happy to see their friends that visited the shop, but it could've been a bit better. read more

Kimmer's Ice Cream - a woman behind the counter - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - St. Charles, Illinois

I visited this ice cream shop as I was in downtown St. Charles and wanted to try something new. The shop is located near the center of downtown except it is on the edge so seating is limited. I did notice right away that the options were a bit more limited compared to the other ice cream shop in the area and the pricing was decent. I ordered the Parent Trap and got one scoop. This was a pretty good flavor but I wasn't too amazed. The location and inside seating of the restaurant is nice but you definitely should go when seating options are open and avoid going late night because of the bugs outside. Overall, this was a decent ice cream shop, but I would definitely recommend checking out the other dessert places in the area first. read more

Fast service even with a line. Feels like a lot of cars are around there though. LOVE the Jamocha flavor!

Service was quick, ice cream (jamocha and cookies and cream) flavorful. Came here after dinner across the street, conveniently located by a few restaurants for dessert after a meal. read more

Great selection of cones! We have tried the chocolate, jamocha, blue moon, and mint chip and it was all delicious. Such a cute place for a date, too! read more

Loved the variety of ice creams. They were super helpful for my little who has a particular palate. Also offer rewards for frequent visits.

I had the chocolate dipped cone with chocolate peanut butter ice cream . My sister had chocolate ice cream with marshmallow topping, she gives it . read more

If I'm being honest, this is some of the best ice cream I've ever had. We came to this location when it first opened, there was only one store, and Kimmer herself was behind the counter! We've been coming ever since - whenever we have family or friends visiting in town, we always take them there. The location in St. Charles has turned into a really nice place to grab a bite of ice cream and hang out after dinner - there's a small parking lot but I think there is a lot of street parking/lots in nearby walking distance. Due to covid, it seems that they've moved the entrance to the side door and exit through the front door - pretty smart and keeps the flow moving so it doesn't get too crowded in there! A must is getting a pink sprinkle sugar cone or one of the waffle cones - you can smell them when you walk in. There's so many good flavors there, but my absolute favorite is The Parent Trap - peanut butter with Oreo (based on the the flavors in the movie). I went back home after two years and of course we had to make a stop at Kimmers, and they still had my favorite flavor! Definitely a great local shop for ice cream in downtown St. Charles to check out before summer is officially over! read more

Was in town for some work and wanted to finish off the day with ice cream. Luckily they were open during covid so I stopped by. I got the chocolate and sea salt caramel flavor. Sea salt flavor was great, so do get that if you fancy caramel. Service was good too and they have some fun flavors as well. Location is right by the little river so grab one and take a little walk. Overall, cute! read more

Kimmer's Ice Cream has super delicious flavors of ice cream! Their ice cream was adorable and appealing in looks and taste! Before I had even finished my ice cream, I already wanted to go back to get more because it was so good! Really liked the little macaroon ice cream sandwiches! Best ice cream I've ever had! The prices are reasonable in relation to the quality. Staff was great, decent, and friendly. Great customer service. Kimmer's Ice Cream was truly a gem. read more

YUMMYYYY, the blue moon flavor is delicious, the service is great, AND the vibes are cool as heck!

Wide variety of fun flavors, and I had some of the most upbeat and friendly staff. I'm particularly nervous about ordering but my server made it fun and inviting, I felt free to add tons of topping on my order, all to which he encouraged, even recommended some. Fantastic service, and fantastic options. Can't forget to mention it's delicious! read more

Always yummy, great and friendly staff and wonderful changing flavors. A staple in Saint Charles!

This place is AMAZING!!!! I got chocolate covered cherries and hubby got caramel sea salt. It is obvious that these ice creams are made from scratch. I know why there was a line out the door. And the wait wasn't too long. read more

Great Ice Cream, polite and eager to help staff, parking across the street is an option if the attached lot is full.

I have been a fan of Kimmer's Ice Cream for years. Their flavored cheesecake ice cream are the best! And the their waffle cones are always fresh. read more

Kimmer's Ice Cream - Truth - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - St. Charles, Illinois

Friendly and patient staff! Scoops are generous and ice cream was good. Family got traditional flavors, mint chip, butter pecan, chocolate, blue moon superwoman, cookie dough, and cookies and cream. One was in a Sparkel cone which was fun. No complaints. read more

Really cute little ice-cream store! They seemed to have a small, but exciting variety of flavors to choose from. The girls working were quick and friendly. Store was nice and bright and clean - decor is fun. Two negatives: a smidge expensive. $12 for two ice-cream bowls (waffle cone bowl w/ ice cream). The other thing is, I felt like (and my Mom who was with me said the same thing) the ice cream was SO cold (and hard) that it took away from the flavor. I thought that maybe if the ice-cream was less cold, that it would both taste better and be easier to eat. Honestly as cute as it was, i probably wouldn't come back. (I might try once more just to see if it was a fluke). read more

Found this place on yelp and decided to go try it. I love some good ice cream! This was worth the 20 minute drive and I would go back again. I had the cake batter. It is definitely a must try! read more

Kimmer's Ice Cream - Cake batter! - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - St. Charles, Illinois

Seriously. The Parent Trap Oreo and peanut butter ice cream with a pretzel cone is sooooo good! I tasted a few options during my last visit...cinnamon pecan (with HUGE pecan pieces!), mint chocolate chip, apple cider sorbet...one was better than the next. There is not one negative thing that I can think to say about Kimmer's. They make fresh ice cream on a regular basis. No time for icy crud to build up because the turnover is great! They have some seating inside and it's so cute in their. White light. A pink Christmas tree :-) Pink and crystal chandeliers. Plus when you walk in the door, it smells AMAZING!!! It's the cones they're making. Yummy! The service is great and the portions are plentiful. If you haven't been to Kimmer's yet, I would highly encourage you to stop by. read more

Soooo good! Local ice cream shop feel and a friendly environment. After dinner, we walked to get ice cream. We wanted to bring it home because it was getting late and already super cold outside! We tried a couple types and looked at their pints. We didn't see the kind we wanted so my friend asked if we could make our own pint and the girl said sure! We ended up combining two flavors together and WOW! (Lindsay Lohan and Birthday Cake - Oreo, peanut butter, vanilla cake batter, and sprinkles). It was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend. It was enough for two people and the carton is adorable too! We love pink, sparkles, and ice cream so it's the most perfect ice cream shop ever! read more
