    High tide and Ice cream nachos
    Morgan J.

    They have numerous good ice cream flavors with creative combinations of sundae options. We went with the high tide which is a peanut butter lovers dream. It was peanut butter ice cream with PB sauce, chocolate sauce, and PB cups topped with whipped cream and a cherry. Additionally, we got the ice cream nachos. These included cookies and cream ice cream and oreo pieces with "nachos" of waffle cones

    Cute little sticker that says it all!

    I'll give this place a 2 star review because it hurts to give them what I really think they deserve... I've posted 20 photos (incl menu sign boards & prices) that I took the other night when the 2 of us went in search of ice cream in Corolla that would be open on the later side (open till 10PM). All we wanted was just straight up ice cream - no sundae, no banana split, no milkshake, no samwich, no taco - just plain ol' ice cream in a cup to cap off our dinner. We've never gone out for ice cream when we're vacationing here but this time we decided to venture out. We got there and the place was PACKED. Mostly kids and teenagers - likely who walked over from Currituck Club. I get it - day or night, it's an easy and safe walk for teens who are staying in the Currituck Club gated community who want to go out and ditch their parents for an ice cream hang out. But that's really all this place has going for it imo: its location. As far as I can tell, there's nothing special about the ice cream. It's not homemade, looks like it's been sitting in the tubs for days on end AND the portion sizes are soooooo woefully small FOR THE PRICE! (I calculated from a menu/price pic from just 1 year ago that scoop prices increased almost 15%! That's obscene for the quality of ice cream this place serves!) We got the kid's cup size - yes I know, it's a kid's cup. But no excuse - it was a TEENY TINY serving. And we paid $4.50 FOR EACH ONE. It was a JOKE. The kid's cup scoop looked soooo sad and lonely in its cup. I yelled into the cup and it echo'ed back.... You get it. (See my pic.) For the adults who are spend-conscious - my recommendation is to walk or drive over to the Harris Teeter steps away and buy a couple, 2 or 3 gallons of ice cream and fixin's, syrups and toppings AND SPEND THE SAME AMOUNT AS A COUPLE SCOOPS OF ICE CREAM FROM HERE and you'll have WAYYYYY better tasting, higher quality ice cream than this place. Sad to say but true. As another reviewer aptly put it: if you have ample vacay money to blow, you'll blow a good chunk of it here for sure. Totally not worth the wait - we were in a line outside the front door. Service is slow as molasses - so don't be in a hurry. If it was real honest to goodness housemade ice cream, it STILL would have been a rip off for the portion size for what we paid. Next time will try Big Buck's Homemade Ice Cream up the street (open even later till 1030PM)...or even DQ soft serve (in the Food Lion shopping center / Monteray Plaza open till 10PM) would have been better (and cheaper) than this place. #facepalm

    Chaco or Loco Taco, can't remember.

    Good ice cream selection! Reasonable prices, per scoop. The service from the employees was top notch, very friendly and liked to strike up a conversation. Kinda small store, or could have been laid out differently, to prevent such a long line having to form outside. There are a few tables inside, and some picnic tables outside too.

    After a horse tour, we "needed" ice cream. We went to The Chill Spot. It had a very long line - we took that as "it must be good." It was good and the long line moved quickly. There were many fun flavors. My family all agreed that it was great and creamy - as ice cream should be! We'll go again if we are in the neighborhood!

    Cute shop and friendly staff. I liked the texture and richness of this ice cream but the flavors were a bit artificial tasting. I tried the peach ice cream which had a sharp astringent aftertaste. The black raspberry chocolate was more balanced as a flavor but melted quickly and was not as stable.

    This is a cute establishment with super yummy ice cream but we couldn't help but be completely icked by the employees scooping with no gloves. It is clear that this isn't a requirement as there's no gloves anywhere. Completely unsanitary and super gross! Not to mention that causes a huge concern for people with allergies! The Cookie Monster was also great but had sooo much blue dye.

    Lemon bar shake and Ice cream nachos! Awesome!

    The Achilles Spot is the awesome spot. We've been twice this week and they killed it both times. The staff is super friendly and the ice cream is great. Check them out! Might be back tomorrow.

    This is such a cute little ice cream spot with sooo many more options than just a scoop of ice cream. They had plentiful flavor options and some pretty cool dishes, like ice cream tacos or ice cream cookie sammies. The employees that were in there when we went in were very kind and chatty which just made the experience even better. Their stickers and tshirts are pretty cool and a nice option for anyone who wants something obx related but doesn't want a touristy tshirt. The inside of the shop is colorful and fun with lots of art work. My only complaint is that we didn't discover this place until the end of our vacation.

    Local community Ice Cream spot. Have a sign asking for 5 Star reviews, but honestly can't do that. Ice cream was good, portions were okay. The service however was fast and very good. As a local spot, if I lived here - I would frequent often. Love my ice cream.

    Double brownie ice cream!

    Great ice cream and great staff! We stayed in Corolla for family vaca and came here multiple nights because it was so good. The staff are so friendly and patient (despite how busy it can get!), all kids spending the summer on the island. Try the double brownie ice cream, some of the best I've had!

    My family had decided to out for ice cream tonight and decided to go to The Chill Spot. After we had started our food, we all agreed that the ice cream was amazing. The workers were also very nice and all had smiles on their faces as I was ordering. I was very pleased with our choice of The Chill Spot.

    See all

    How did this place get 41/2 stars? Crummy ice cream, pathetic toppings. Would not return if the ice cream was free.
