AMAZING hand made ice cream made with all natural ingredients! The chocolate and cannoli are just amazing. The owners work in the shop and are HILARIOUS. I love them. They are in their 80's and about out of patience, so if you walk in and just stare at the menu like you've never ordered ice cream before, they may snap at you. Hey, they have character if you ask me! I absolutely love the service, location, and people there. Thanks Mr C!!! read more

A great treat after dinner and a refreshing and very delicious with a pleasantly surprising large amount of! The lady/server was so friendly and informative about their process of making the "goodies" with all natural ingredients. We were there right before Christmas and the inside decor was amazing and took me back in time. read more

We stopped by on our way back from a late lunch and am very glad we did. All natural ingredients made for delicious ice cream and we enjoyed the different flavors we each had. From what we could see, the business is for sale and if someone continues to make ice cream this way, they are sure to do well. Service was quick and the store is inviting to come inside and fits in perfectly with the surrounding area on Key Largo. Nice local flavor and beaches in feel. Would return for sure when in the area! read more

The actual ice cream is great but the service at night (especially on the weekends) is horrible!!!! The individuals that work look and speak to customers like they hate their jobs all the time. I think they may even be the owners which is incredibly sad. read more

Outstanding. I have the cannoli ice cream the wife had a sherbet. Usually she hates them but hers was so fresh and light. My cannoli ice cream was top die from. I know why they make it twice a day in the busy season. The shop is for sale which includes all the recipes. I hope who ever buys it does not change s thing read more

Open til 8pm? Drive all the way here to see it's closed. Thanks. Fix your hours. Saw several people come and leave thinking y'all were open. read more

The icecream was exceptional with many flavors to choose from. Homemade sorbet made with many fresh fruits tastes extremely good. The place was filled with many decorations and signs. However, the reason I gave this place a 4 was because we bought four items and when we asked for a sample she said she had to save her spoons for spring break. read more

Mr. C is retiring soon so you better hurry in!!! You won't find ice cream like this anywhere anymore...Mr. C makes all his ice creams and Mrs. C makes all the pies and baked goods. Key Lime Pie ice cream - Un-freaking-believably delicious. Wow. No words. We regretted not getting a large of just this. 5+++ stars. Chocolate fudge - Old school chocolate flavor with rich fudge swirled in. Delicious!!!! 5+ stars. Strawberry and Peach/Mango sorbets - Fruity, refreshing and Icy. Not sure if he uses fruit purees or concentrates but it sure is good! 5 stars. Small Key Lime Pie - $2.50 for a homemade mini pie? Yes please!!! We've only tried one other key lime pie down here in the keys, but I'm guessing this may be one of the best. 5+ stars. We feel so blessed to have been able to experience Mr. C's (he seems legendary down here) and hope this isn't our last time! read more

Mr C's Home Made Ice Cream - Large Chocolate Brownie and mango peach sorbet - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Islamorada, Florida

Homemade ice cream, made by Mr. C and his sweet wife. They are elderly but man do they make a good ice cream! Dozens of flavors to choose from and the Waffle cones are made to order. We went here 3 times while in the Keys. Mr. C waited on us as well as the Mrs. They are kind and very patient with all their guests. The icecream parlor is a store front in a small strip mall. There are benches to sit on outside while you enjoy your treat. It is clean and good parking. I had the Key Lime Pie ice cream, Pepperming stick with Hot Fudge (homemade) and Mint Oreo on 3 different visits. Not all at once!!!! lol. read more

Only icecream spot in town. Says it closes at 7pm but would not open the door for us at 6:45.... would appreciate more accuracy of hours listed. read more

Stop on by if you're looking for delicious homemade treats with quality ingredients & the most lovely husband-wife tag team running the shop. What's not to like? A group of friends and I stopped in for an early evening treat & couldn't have been more pleased! Staff was so friendly, welcoming & accommodating. We had several killer combos in the group--peanut butter & cannoli or the pineapple sorbet with coconut ice cream. What a dream! The key lime pie a la mode was amazing & I got a little pie to go. :) If you come around sunset you might even see the local rooster. Make a visit soon! read more

The Keys is very niche. A lot of small businesses and mom/pop shops. Came here for ice cream and they did not disappoint. Only had one person running the shop and she did it all. She was giving samples, making fresh waffle cones, and checking people out. They have a few variety of ice creams. Traditional homemade, gelato, and italian ice. I love the mix of gelato and italian ice so that's what I got. Super refreshing after a day of fishing. The cone was the best part though. It was warm crunchy and chewy at the same time. It held the ice cream really well and did not melt in your hand! Love how it was made fresh to order and not premade. read more

I was here for a business trip and was craving something sweet. We decided to stop here and I'm so glad we did! We both got small cups. I had Butterfinger and almond Joy ice cream. My other half had Swiss almond chocolate and something else but I can't remember what it was. The ice cream is amazing here! It has such good flavor and consistency. The owner is such a sweetheart, she let us know that all their ice cream was homemade and it's her husband's recipe. I can't say enough good things about this ice cream, all I can say is if you're craving ice cream this is definitely the spot! I highly recommend this business for their quality of ice cream, their fun decor, and the service from the owners read more

It was phenomenal dont know why they have it As permanently closed on yelp you all need to fix your issues I was there today Dec 8/24 The Old man was Really kind and honestly he sold us some ice cream when I was just planning on seeing the ice cream shop. The Ice cream was Like nothing else better than hagen dazs and jermiahs in my opinion. ( Most or all are homemade Ice creams alot of work put in all his years Respect for The owner) Dont have a photo didnt take one all you have is my word. read more

The ice cream was amazing! Old school all the way! The owner was passionate about his ice cream which I much appreciated. If people think his enthusiasm for ice cream is rude then they are missing the point. Italian style ice cream, New York style service! Loved it all! read more

Mr C's Home Made Ice Cream - Best ice cream since Italy - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Islamorada, Florida

These people are either laundering money or running a shell company. They have to be the worst business in the Keys because they are NEVER open. It has become a joke between me and my husband. We have been a dozen times and they were open once. We had Mexican Food and saw they were open and walked down and the sign said, "back in 5". Last time. You suck. read more

The Ice cream and gelato is amazing! All of the flavors are homemade and the owner is Italian so he makes the gelato authentically. They make the waffle cones are made in the spot! The servers are very straight forward, but efficient. The atmosphere is very diner like but still cute. Definitely would recommend this shop! read more

Mr C's Home Made Ice Cream - Small size (more than enough) with half pineapple mango sorbet and half Oreo gelato. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Islamorada, Florida

I took my 6 sons and husband post dinner to this little gem. The reviews were either crazy good or it was negative. As a native New Yorker I can spot another New Yorker in a NY min. The owners are VERY nice, they're passionate about their homemade ice cream/gelato/sorbet. Mr. C mentioned he uses 6 lbs of fruit to produce his fruit sorbet. There is a good variety of flavors. Their waffle cones are made fresh on the spot. Boy did that make me happy getting a warm cone in my hand. My boys were all happy with their ice creams and gelatos. My littlest guy stole the last bites of my cone. It was that good! The ice cream flavor I selected was mint chip which was very fluffy like some of the reviews mentioned. So natural and delicious. Can't wait to visit soon again. read more

My partner and I were looking for some ice cream after dinner and found this place. I got the cannoli flavor, which I had never seen before in an ice cream. It was very yummy!! You can taste the ricotta in it, so it was very unique. The service was ok. Not too friendly but just answered any question we had. It was super quiet inside (no music) with only one employee, so we just decided to take the ice cream to where we were staying. However, it may have been because it was 45 min to closing? Would be nice to have music or something in the background. read more

I love this place! The flavors are amazing and you can tell they are homemade and fresh. Also the cones are outstanding. I always stop in my way down. Where else you going to get freshly made cones? Thank you for this dessert! read more

I love this place, it was the best ice cream I've had in a while. The service is amazing!!!! The manger was so kind to us, she was also our server. We talked for a while and she made us feel at home. The ambiance was nice, had that old school Keys vibe. Keep up the good work. read more

Coconut ice cream and homemade waffle cone were exquisite!!! Great little ice cream shop and I would certainly recommend!

Horrible service. Stopped by after dinner, 7 minutes before closing and the older woman working refused to serve us because she was closing. There were several customers inside already and she was unnecessarily rude about it. I don't care to give my money to jerks like that anyways. read more

Stopped in to let my kids get shakes at this place and the lady said she couldn't do shakes because she had cantaloupe in her blender. She then rolled her eyes when we said we didn't want anything else. When we left she slapped a closed sign on the door. I get maybe she was having a bad day but you don't take it out on customers. read more

The mini key lime pie was absolutely delicious - considering going back for a whole one, if they sell them! The ice cream was well portioned and tasty, although very different consistencies between the flavors (some icy, some creamy). The Oreo didn't have a lot of Oreo and the chocolate brownie could have used more brownie. That being said, ice cream was good and the key lime pie was phenomenal! read more

EXCEPTIONAL ICE CREAM AND SORBET!!! I had blackberry raspberry sorbet and cannoli ice cream- both outstanding!! Mr C is the best- he makes the products himself and has stories to tell We went today for the first time and already have plans to return tomorrow. Don't miss it! read more

I had a craving for ice cream and found a gem in Key Largo. The secret to homemade is that it's made with love. The ice cream was creamy and delicious. It was exactly what I needed. I will definitely be back! The one star ratings are quite silly. I didn't come to the ice cream shop to go to the bathroom. There is a sign outside and another inside stating that masks should be worn. If you refuse to wear a mask, you should get barked at. I was not given a lecture about Biden or Catholicism. I bet those that were, brought either up in a derogatory manner. The shop also has antique toys and an original coin-operated horse kiddie ride. If you want to know more about these, ask. If you don't, keep your mouth shut and order your ice cream. If you want good homemade ice cream, come here. If you want to go to the bathroom, go before you leave the house. I had my ice cream in my car while listening to some good tunes. read more

This place is hardly ever open! Every time we eat at the Mexican restaurant here and want an ice cream for dessert they are closed or have a sign that says back in 5 minutes. It's never 5 minutes! read more

Ice cream was homemade and good. The lady working the counter needs to learn to be nicer to her paying customers though.

If we could give a 0 star we would. Owner was rude not only once but twice had a smart mouth, asking if we know what fruit is like we are new to the world then to lie about Gelato, he gave me Italian Ice telling us it's Gelato. I hope others don't have this experience. When we told our friends down here, they told us they didn't even get to make it into the Ice Cream shop they close at 9 and they were walking up to the door at 830 and a lady came right to the door and locked it right infront of his face, like she didn't see him. read more

Honestly was really whether or not to try this place because of the mixed reviews but my husband and I agreed this place has the best ice cream in Islamorada! Super creamy ice cream, almost a soft service consistency and many flavors. Would come back! read more

This place is incredible!!! We've been here a dozen times over the past few weeks. Every flavor we've tried has been fantastic. Personal favorite, half key lime/half cheese cake with extra graham cracker crumbs. Owners are super sweet and patient as you make your choices. Prices are reasonable. Go visit, you will be happy you did! Beware, it's addicting. Well, your waistline may not appreciate it. read more
