I ordered a shake made with Death by Peanut Butter, and it was unbelievably good -- the kind of shake you could easily drink five of without thinking twice. The kids were thrilled with their choices too. There's both indoor seating and a really nice outdoor area, which made it easy to relax and enjoy everything. The only thing to keep in mind is that there was just one person working during our visit, so it took a while to get our order processed. When I went back in to buy two pints to go, I ended up waiting in line again for about 10 minutes. Even with the slower pace, the ice cream was absolutely worth it. Great flavors, friendly service, and a perfect stop after a fun morning out. Highly recommend.

The vibe is modern and super fun, they even have table and yard games so you can actually hang out instead of just rushing off with your sweet treat. The ice cream lineup is huge (and yes, they'll let you sample as many as you need ). I went in for the Açaí Bowl but couldn't resist trying some ice cream too, and it was fresh, tasty, and totally customizable. Win win. The staff is young, friendly, and just genuinely nice. You can tell they enjoy being there, which makes the whole experience better. Overall, it's the kind of spot that puts you in a good mood. We'll definitely be back!

So word of mouth is strong for this somewhat throw back ice cream shop, but with very eccentric and creative flavored ice cream. The owner is friendly and obviously proud of his flavors.

If you love ice cream, and want to taste homemade innovative flavors, this is a MUST try ice cream shop.

Their prices are very reasonable, considering the quality. There are also games that you can play with during your stay there. There is plenty of parking available.

Royal Scoop might be the busiest ice cream shop I've ever been to. I went during Tuesday evening of…read morespring break and it was a madhouse, but it seems like they have a system. It's not super intuitive, so I was glad to go with locals! There's a very long line near the entrance that snakes around, but if things are that busy they open a secondary line to the right, which seems to reward the locals in the know. You place your order and they don't scoop the ice cream immediately, but later on they start calling your name out at the counter. We ordered in a group of 4, and I was surprised to see that 4 different people scooped out our orders so they were calling out the name our order was under left and right. I tried the spumoni (chocolate, pistachio, and black cherry) and the dirty banana and they both were very true to their descriptions. There was a decent amount of seating but it was pretty packed so I think sometimes people were waiting around for a group to leave for the next table, but it wasn't too bad.

There's clearly a reason this place has become such a Sanibel tradition. The first thing I'll mention is the only reason this isn't a full five-star review. When we walked inside, there was a pretty strong odor that immediately caught our attention. It wasn't just us, either. We overheard several other customers commenting on it while waiting in line. Hopefully it was just an off day, because everything else about the experience was enjoyable. Once you get past that, the shop has a fun, quirky personality. The colorful decorations hanging from the ceiling give it a nostalgic, whimsical feel, and despite the long line, it moved quickly. The staff was friendly, patient, and kept things running efficiently. I ordered the cotton candy ice cream. It was a little sweeter than my personal preference, but the kids absolutely loved it. The menu offers an impressive variety of flavors, so there's truly something for everyone, and I can see why so many families make this a vacation tradition. One thing we really appreciated was the outdoor seating. Rather than staying inside, we took our ice cream outside to enjoy the beautiful Sanibel evening, which ended up being the perfect way to finish our dessert. Overall, I'd happily return. Great service, delicious ice cream, plenty of flavor options, and a fun atmosphere. If the issue with the odor was just a one-time occurrence, this would easily be a five-star stop. 4.5 stars. A Sanibel classic that's definitely worth adding to your vacation itinerary.

However, it was getting a bit hot while Nate and I were at the Naples Downtown Art Fair at Cambier Park, and we saw the Rita's Italian Ice truck so I decided to order a single cup of mango Italian ice. The scoop was big and we got two spoons to share. I was really surprised by the texture - it's so smooth and delicious! I get the hype now. It was still too cold for me (lol) but I liked the very fresh mango flavor. I'm curious about some of the other non-fruit flavors, and they also serve frozen custard. You can get a cup with half Italian ice and half custard, which sounds interesting. I did some searching after this experience and found out there is a Rita's in Grand Rapids now, so I may have to check it out.

The young woman working that night was incredibly friendly and let us sample as many flavors as we wanted. Their ice cream is made in Sarasota, Florida, by Yoder's, an Amish community known for quality. The result? A rich, creamy texture with perfectly balanced flavors. The pistachio ice cream stood out--it's made with real pistachios, not almonds, which is a rare and welcome surprise! I opted for the Triple Peanut Butter, which had an intense peanut butter flavor that really hit the spot. The Mint Chocolate Chip was also fantastic--easily one of the best we've had. Paradise Scoops is definitely worth the drive, and we can't wait to go back to try even more flavors. If you're in the area, this place is a must-visit!
