If you're flying in or out, definitely stop by the airport location--it's conveniently located right before security (or just after you exit), and it's usually not too crowded. That makes it a perfect, stress-free treat before or after a flight. The downtown location is iconic, but fair warning: during high season there can be a line wrapped all the way around the building. That said, once you taste the ice cream, you'll understand why. The ice cream is incredibly rich, creamy, and full of flavor--truly some of the best I've had in the U.S. On top of that, the staff is super friendly and welcoming, even when the place is busy, which makes the experience even better. The ice cream parlor itself is really cool inside, with a charming retro vibe that feels straight out of the 1960s. The nostalgic décor adds so much character and makes it more than just an ice cream stop--it's an experience. Whether you grab a scoop at the airport or brave the downtown line, Leopold's is absolutely worth it and highly recommended.

Savannah Socialite
Paul J.

Headed home from Savannah, we made it through airport security and the first thing I saw was the Leopold's Ice Cream stand. Another opportunity to try the best ice cream in Savannah! I got the Savannah Socialite (again): milk and dark chocolate ice creams with roasted Georgia Pecans and swirled with homemade bourbon-infused caramel. Another overflowing cup of Leopold's ice cream as we waited for our flight to board. No hollywood nostalgia at this location, but the ice cream still hits the spot! If you missed out on Leopold's downtown, you got one last chance at the airport!

Flavorful rich creamy ice cream. Wish they had hot fudge but chocolate sauce works just as well and she knew the perfect amount to put on. A kid and small cost about $15

So you're visiting Savannah and want to try Leopold? This is the way to do it. Hop off the plane at SAV with a dream of some Leopolds (Miley Cyrus reference, FYI) and grab some ice cream here before heading to your Uber. Chances are, there's no line and you can try all the flavors in peace. Now you have just saved yourself an unknown amount of time waiting in line at the downtown location. I had honey almond and omg yum.

I've been trying to get into this landmark ice cream shop for a few years. I finally made it into Leopold's. On this day the line wasn't too long, so I hopped in line. One minute later there were about 15 people standing behind me. This brand was founded by three brothers a little over 100 years ago. Let's just say they know ice cream. I had the Savannah Socialite which is a decadent chocolate, nutty, with a bourbon infusion, so delicious. The service is awesome and fast, scooping up a variety of ice cream favorites, from cones, to banana splits. They have a vintage juke box inside, along with some other nostalgic momentum's.

Leopold's at Savannah Hilton Head International Airport

When I landed at the Savannah Hilton Head International Airport, I immediately saw Leopold's Ice Cream and made a mental note to get this ice cream here on my way out if I don't make it to the original Leopold's location. Well, I sadly didn't make it to Leopold's in the historic district, but I was able to snag some at this airport location, and I'm so glad I didn't leave Savannah without tasting Leopold's Ice Cream. I scream for ice cream and heard Leopold's was the best ice cream in Savannah, so it was definitely on my bucket list. The ice cream was super creamy with a variety of ingredients for the different flavors. The signature flavor is the Savannah Socialite, which is dark and milk chocolate with Georgia pecans and bourbon caramel sauce, which is the one I ordered and absolutely loved! However, if you don't like chocolate, which is weird BTW, there are a variety of different flavors, as well as seasonal ones. There are also sundaes, cookie sandwiches, floats and merchandise. Just note that if you go to the Leopold's stand at the gates after TSA, the menu won't be as large and they won't serve as many flavors. It's best to get Leopold's at the central area at the airport for the full experience - other than the OG location, of course. Bottom line: don't leave Savannah without eating at Leopold's Ice Cream, even if it's at this airport location, which is basically a last call to eat Leopold's Ice Cream and be happy.

We knew there were a couple of Leopold's at SAV. One was before security and one post. The one past security is between Gates 9 & 10. That worked out as our departure gate was 11. The airport is very small so it would have been an easy walk irregardless. We went through TSA and headed toward our gate. We spotted the Leopold kiosk. Hubby and I each ordered a single scoop. Unlike Leopold's in Savannah proper, the single scoop was not very generous. Had we known we'd ordered two scoops for an extra dollar more. As it was we paid $13+ for two tiny cups. This time I ordered chocolate. It was dark and creamy. Hubby got the raspberry sorbet. Advice: Get two scoops.

Perfect way to end your trip. Ice cream was on point. It tasted very rich and creamy with a great balance of sweetness. Highly recommend it.

Yum! Savannah Socialite and Pistachio were a solid combo double scoop. A delay causing a missed connection allowed me to sit in the main terminal waiting for a flight out. The ice cream hit the spot. Not too sweet and the right balance of richness, nuttiness and sweet. There's a second location past TSA if that's where you are headed in a rush since you can't bring it through security. Me...I preferred sitting on this side of the screening in the atrium square within terminal. Enjoy!

After many visits and opting to not wait in the long lines, I finally did it this time! It smells of cream/milk when you walk into the door and the staff are pretty friendly. You can sample the ice cream flavors they have available. I got a single scoop of honey almond cream which was absolutely delicious -- hits the spot after you've been walking around town for a bit. Definitely recommend stopping by this little icon when you're in Savannah!

Ice cream single scoops

Leopold's was great - it was a sweet spot to see community members and tourist come together. We got a kids scoop of vanilla in a larger cup with hot fudge (delicious) and a single scoop of banana - probably some of the best banana ice cream I've had. The bathrooms were clean and there were tables available to sit inside. The employees were kind - Javon who was outside welcoming folks was kind and had a lot of knowledge about the flavors! You can also ask for samples of the flavors if you're not sure and the line was long but moved quickly!

Delicious!! We were not able to get a tasting in town because of the long line and the heat would not allow. But did take advantage of the Shoppe at the airport, making it a plus to our trip.

I don't get the rage. Waiting in line for 45 minutes for what seemed mediocre. Service was good. Just doesn't seem worth the craze!

I finally took everyone's advice and tried out Leopold's Ice Cream…read moreShop. Thankfully, I was able to visit right as they opened around 11:15AM, so the line was not nearly as long as I have seen it previously. There are many nostalgic ice cream flavors offered here that other shops don't sell, such as the peppermint and tutti fruit flavors. However, we ended up getting the seasonal Girl Scouts thin mint flavor and chocolate flavors, which were both excellent. We opted for 2 scoop waffle cones, but I would say that they are very generous with scoop sizes, so in the future I may stick with 1 scoop. I was also impressed with the variety of treats, ranging from ice cream sandwiches to milkshakes to floats. The only really complaint I have is that the shop is small (which explains the constant line out the door) and there is a room for seating, but there are only about 6-8 tables capable of seating only 2-3 people each. So, I would not recommend visiting if you are in a large group -- you would basically have to take your ice cream to go.

It looks good when you have a line out of the door. It suggests your product is worth waiting for…read more And yes the ice cream is good. However, there really is not a reason the process could not be made just a little more efficient. While waiting in line it would be helpful to easily see what flavors are available. From the way the coolers are situated you can't. So ultimately it becomes a bottle neck with people trying to decipher the flavors and going through the sampling process. And to pay, you end up summoned into the next room. Also not obvious. Higher efficiency will improve the customer satisfaction and your overall sales!!

The first thing you'll notice when you arrive at this location is the vibrant, colorful steps…read moreleading up to a charming two-story pink building. Nestled in the heart of the Starland District, right next to Starland Yard, the owner has done an incredible job blending a little bit of everything into this space. The first floor is an eclectic mix of clothing, earrings, quirky prints, pickles wearing cowboy hats! Plus, you can grab a refreshing bubble tea or treat yourself to some ice cream or dairy-free sorbet. It's a fun, laid-back vibe, and there's something for everyone. Upstairs, you'll find an art studio offering classes in pottery, painting, knitting, and jewelry-making. It's a fantastic spot for birthday parties, girls' outings, or just a creative afternoon. The staff here are super friendly and always happy to recommend other local spots to check out. The artwork is unique, and while it's definitely one-of-a-kind, it's priced reasonably for such distinctive pieces. And, as a fun bonus, they even have a cactus adoption agency--because who doesn't need a little cactus friend in their life?

This is such a cute boutique with so many fun items from local crafters!…read moreThey also have ice cream and boba! While I shopped, my fiancé got an ice cream in a cute to go Chinese take out box!
