Families love coming there to get ice cream and even come many times after kids sporting events. The people who work there are always very nice and effective when getting ice cream. We've had all kinds of flavors over the years. My husband loves the custard especially a swirl. I personally love the head ice cream and milkshakes. The peanut butter ice cream is my favorite. I also like holiday and other fun flavors especially those with cake or frosting. We have also enjoyed the ice cream sandwiches. Next time you and your family want ice cream, check them out. They're off the Mt Nebo exit.

What a fun spot!

They had Christmas in July special flavors when I visited so I tried the Peppermint with Oreo. I loved it! The peppermint was subtle, not overly minty like it can tend to be. And it was packed with large Oreo pieces. Freshly made so it was extra creamy and soft. The staff was very friendly and even gave us a free cup of whipped cream for our dog.

Kool Cones is a local, family-owned and -operated ice-cream shop…read more For several years, I have eaten at Kool Cones off and on. During my most recent visit, the menu listed soft serves, frozen yogurts, sundaes, shakes, floats, slushees, milkshakes, and more. I wanted to treat my dog Daisy to an ice cream. I did not see it listed on the menu, so I asked the employee. She spoke nicely with me, and she explained that a pup cup is vanilla ice cream. It would be nice to see additional flavors such as peanut butter. I bought it for $1.40. It had a milk bone on top. My dog ate about half of the ice cream and all of the milk bone. I think that she would have eaten all of it if she were not tired and hot. Some outdoor seating is available here.

Antney's is less than 10 minutes away from my apartment, and yet I almost never get ice cream here…read more Why? Because they're popular - TOO popular. And to be fair, they deserve to be popular. Still, waiting in a long line outside in the summer heat...it's no fun. BUT if I'm driving by and the line is short for a change, I'll take a detour and get myself a sweet treat. So, why's Antney's so popular? Because we all love a family-run ice cream shop. They serve homemade cones and a nice mix of (also homemade) ice cream scoops, milkshakes, sundaes, and even frozen yogurts and sorbets. Parts of the menu rotate regularly too (specifically, I've read that some flavors change daily). So while you can always expect to find the classics here, you never know what else awaits you. Case in point: I stopped by last week and to my delight, Nutella Cookie ice cream was on the menu! I ordered a milkshake version and let me tell you, it was the best milkshake I've had in quite a while. Absolutely delicious flavor, and full of cookie pieces to boot - it hit the spot on a hot summer afternoon. It's probably for the best that I don't want to regularly wait in a long line in a hot parking lot to get ice cream from Antney's. Well, it's good for my wallet and waistline at least - it's disappointing for my tastebuds. Hopefully though, I'll get lucky again before they close for the winter, and will once again drive by while the line is on the shorter side!

The employees here are always very friendly and welcoming and the ambience makes you feel like home. There is a really fun photo bench and kids table with kids activities.

Having grown up in Jefferson Hills, I have been to Al's Cone Zone more times than I can remember…read more It is a classic, reasonably priced establishment that is beloved by locals and visitors alike. Al's is located on State Route 885 in Jefferson Hills, just to the right of the entrance to 885 Park and Baseball Fields. The building is a bright blue, and covered with fun paintings of ice cream and other items they sell. So, you definitely will not miss it. It is a seasonal operation that usually runs from sometime in March to sometime in October. There is a ton of parking here. You will find some spots in front of the windows. Due to no fault of Al's, I personally find these a little difficult to get in and out of, just with the nature of 885 as a road. To the right of the building, there is a large parking lot, with spaces much easier to get in and out of. Al's purchased this parcel a few years ago, and made it into an expanded lot. There is a walkway leading to the building right from this lot. This visit in particular was this past September. I was in the area eating dinner, so I decided to stop by Al's for dessert on the way back. I arrived around 8:50 PM, and they closed at 9:00, so naturally there was not much of a wait at this time. The store is a classic outdoor ice cream stand. Meaning that you walk up and order at the windows, and there is no indoor seating. However, there are plenty of benches and picnic tables on either side of the building. Depending on the time of day that you visit, these might be full, so next best thing would be to tailgate at your car! I have tried a large amount of the menu here over the years, and there are a lot of great items. The Tornadoes are huge, and there are so many toppings available to mix in. Cones and dishes are gigantic, regardless of the size. I like the Ice Cream Sandwiches, particularly the ones with either the Chocolate Chip Cookie or the Peanut Butter Cookie. Milkshakes are tasty as well. In the fall, they will have Pumpkin Ice Cream, and tend to have other specials throughout the spring and summer. I have personally never tried the food items, but I imagine they are good! On this visit, I kept it rather simple with a Small Vanilla Cake Cone with Cherry Dip. As I said, the cones are very generous, so I normally stick to a small size. This one was a little porous and uniquely shaped, but that does not matter so long as it tastes good. It definitely did! The person who waited on me was friendly and quick. I understand it can be annoying to have customers so close to closing time, but I appreciated their demeanor and service on this day. The value here is pretty great. Most of the items are soft-serve, so naturally it will be less than hand-scooped ice cream. My cone was under $5, and that included getting the add-on of dip. Al's has always been a crazy good value, and I believe they still are. In the past few years, they also started to take cards. So, no reason not to stop by! Some bonus aspects of Al's are that they will give you a free Pup Cup with your purchase. My dog loves ice cream, so I take advantage of this often. Also, they offer a Punch Card if you ask for one when placing your order. So, if you buy 10 items, you will get one free once you present the card. I have always been a fan of Al's, and now try to stop by whenever I can. I do not live as close anymore, but it is still worth it to come by every once in a while for some delicious treats. The owner is very kind, as well as all of the staff. The product is good, and there really is something for everyone here. Plus, the atmosphere and overall value really bring it over the top. If you find yourself in the Jefferson Hills/Clairton/West Mifflin area anytime soon, make sure to stop by Al's!

Ended p getting a sundae and enjoyed it (you can pick any flavor of ice cream for sundaes). $8.50 for a speciality sundae which is about average these days. The service was great. We were waitied on immediately, asked if we wanted to sample any flavors.. I personally just wish they had more fall/winter seasonal flavors instead of lemon cookie and other flavors that remind me more of summer. But they did have a nice selection of flavors (three cases full) and they the typical selection cups, cones, sundaes and milkshakes. They do not accept cash! It's an Oakland staple, glad they've remained open and in the same spot all these years.
