We love the Magic Bus! My daughter must have had 30 refreshers over the last 5 days. The iced coffee is also amazing! As is the key lime pie! The young ladies that work for you are all wonderful. read more

Loved our visit to the Magic Bus on Sanibel. Super cute VW bug pics here. Lots of fun sweets, ice cream, drinks, coffee, candy. This is newer since we last visited and it's closer to the Lighthouse beach. Super welcoming and friendly here and free easy parking. read more

Since Wickies owns The Magic Bus Ice Cream right next door, we skipped Wickies' desserts and came over here for ice cream instead. And as a bonus, you get 10% off your ice cream purchase when you dine at Wickies. Great! The Magic Bus has taken over the previous Pinocchio's Ice Cream space (Pinocchio's moved to The Periwinkle Shops on Periwinkle Way). These folks here offer a nice variety of flavors along with Sanibel-themed souvenirs. Hubs ordered the butter pecan with chocolate syrup and I ordered a waffle bowl with one scoop each of strawberry and chocolate. The guy helping us mentioned it was his first day and while I totally understand everyone has to start somewhere, he seemed a bit frazzled. Unfortunately, the ice cream was a disappointment. After spending $21, both of us ended up throwing our ice cream away. Both of my scoops tasted freezer-burned and the butter pecan didn't really taste like butter pecan at all. Maybe we just got a bad batch- but why the 4+1/2 stars though? read more

Such a cute touristy spot for coffee, ice cream, and açaí bowls! Friendly staff, quick-moving lines, and a great last-minute find during our trip. So glad we stopped by! read more

Love!!! This is such a cute spot! Yes, they serve ice cream, but they also sell refreshing drinks and coffees. Their sundaes look incredible! We were greeted as soon as we walked in and allowed as many samples as we want until we pick our flavors. They had a terrific assortment of flavors to choose from. It was a delight to the palate! Come visit Magic Bus! Such a sweet delight! read more

This is my kids' favorite spot on the island...Okay, mine too. Great quality ice cream, awesome selection, and verrrrry kind and patient employees who really thrive when dealing with indecisive kids. read more

Awesome place!! The theming inside is so much fun, it's literally a magic bus, haha. They also have lots of fun merch and candy. You'll find ice cream, shakes, and plenty of sweets, including homemade pies. We actually came for the coffee, and they have a huge selection of specialty lattes, cold brew, espresso, and more. It's not just a dessert spot, it's definitely great for craft coffee, too! My gingerbread latte was delicious! read more

What a fun, cool place; my daughter absolutely loved the decor and couldn't decide what to order because there were so many great choices. It looked like there were many vegan options from smoothies to lattes to sorbet (which I think was dairy-free). I ordered the Tropical Sunset smoothie which had pineapple, mango, banana, orange juice, and agave (there may have been one more fruit). It was a little watery and the flavor was a little bitter; it seemed the pineapple maybe wasn't ripe. The staff were wonderful; they kept the crowd moving and were friendly and helpful. There was plenty of seating outside. I did notice though that the garbage bin was heaped and overflowing with trash. Overall, this is a great place to visit when on Sanibel island! read more

Amazing ice cream shop that offers so much more than just ice cream. The interior has amazing designs and felt very unique to the area, the little merchandise available for sale in the shop as well was good quality and prices. Customer service was welcoming, even gave our little guy a rubber ducky which he has thoroughly enjoyed. We will definitely be coming back! read more

Quick ice cream stop after long Beach day. I got the banana boat $14. Black cherry, birthday cake, and otnage swirl. My wife got dark midnight Carmel 2 scoop. Both were great. It was the end of the night and there was a long line but they kept it moving. Clean inside. Helpful staff. read more

Service was super friendly!!! The iced latte I got (white chocolate coconut) was fantastic! Not overly sweet, had actual espresso flavor, and the blueberry muffin was OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! Loved it and will be back! read more

Awesome ice cream!! Lots of flavors and nothing too odd or crazy. They do have coffee and bakery items but I have never tried those.

We weren't impressed with the vibe here it seemed a little sterile. Lots of gifts tho. Left with an ornament, small discount from our hotel partner program with card. Staff seemed unwelcoming, no greeting, they were kinda talking with themselves ... asked about birthday specials like Ben & Jerry's does but they have none. Non dairy flavors were lemon or raspberry sorbet, nothing really special, no flavor samples offered. Left with no bday ice cream :( completely underwhelmed. Bf thought this was a waste of time and commented staff seemed rude ... must have been a case of the mondays! read more

My grandbabies and I just adored this ice cream shop. It was such a cute shop, there was pretty decor! There were many ice cream flavors (I went with key lime pie), along with cute smoothie choices, many yummy looking baked goods (including homemade pies) and different sundae flavors (the key lime pie sundae looked good!). There was cute outdoor seating and indoor options too. The gal who scooped our ice cream was nice and there was a bit of a line but it went quickly. You should definitely stop by after a Sanibel beach day! read more

We come to Sanibel every year. I bring my wife for ice cream but I boycott them since they don't offer a military discount. As a disabled 4-year Iraqi war veteran I was really peeved to see them having the US flag hanging upside down with a large hole in it where the top grommet had ripped a hole in the flag on Memorial Day eve. I was utterly disgusted by their disrespect for the US flag and those who died for it. I would hope that all veterans boycott this worthless dump. read more

Been on Sanibel for a week. Have had ice cream from three different places and Magic Bus is the hands down winner for best ice cream. The other two were bland and tasteless. There is no other choice IMMHO. read more

Great ice cream and parfaits and muffins and more! Nice people. Loved it. Went back 3x in 2 days.

Great ice cream! Place got very busy quick and they handled it like champs. Coffee cream shake was awesome.

Service and breakfast and desserts were great! Healthy breakfast options and plenty of ice cream and coffee options for dessert.

This place was amazing! 10/10 gotta try it if you in the area. I got blueberry cheesecake and it might be one of the best flavors I've ever gotten. read more

Stopped in on our way home from Lighthouse Beach. This place is absolutely adorable and themed perfectly. The ice cream is some of the best I've ever had-perfect way to end the day at the beach. Staff was super friendly! Can't wait to stop in the next time we find ourselves in Sanibel! read more

Great treats, excellent service and can't beat the price! Great new addition to the lighthouse district.

Great place and fantastic ambience. For breakfast they have the acai bowl with gluten free granola which was fantastic because I'm allergic to most things people eat for breakfast. My family had the icecream later on when we went back in the afternoon and they loved it. They have a few bakery items as well . They had a tart and brownie that were both gluten free which was great for my allergies as well. They also have a dairy free icecream and a gluten free ice cream for people who have allergies but if you don't they have regular great icecream. read more

Milk shakes are off the chain get he donut specials ... in the morning had a great latte who needs Starbucks..

Stopped at Magic Bus while showing visiting family members from up North Sanibel Island. Between us the ice cream, cookies and brownies were all sampled and thumbs up on everything !!! The staff was friendly and helpful. They have tons of other things from sodas to water to souvenirs. If you're on a diet treed lightly here. If you're on vacation definitely stop there. read more
