    Cute spot with shaved ice, ice cream etc. Perfect for a hot, sweltering day at the beach, which is nearby.

    Hip Hop Hoorayyyy for The Cooler!!!! They are the perfect location for meeeeee!!! This area of Clearwater Beach is the side I love to frequent because I love North Clearwater Beach. The Cooler is situated right next to Frenchy's Rockaway Grill. There's a decent size parking lot here, restrooms/changing area, the beach is on the other side of Frenchy's and a shower to rinse if needed. After all that, what better than having an açaí bowl, a soft serve cone, a nice refreshment at The Cooler. It's a fun bright colored stand with a hang ten symbol on the top and two surf board benches and an area with stools to sit. Check it out because they are cooler than cool and they are newer than new. This is a fun spot after or before the beach!!

    I love the açaí bowls here. I also love the Hawaiian ices - especially after a run. Cute little spot on Clearwater Beach. They also have ice cream & dogs. I love how it's typically quiet while all the hubbub is at Frenchys.

    This is a cute little spot by the beach (next door to Frenchy's Rockaway Grill). If you drive or walk by too quickly you could totally miss it. The shop offers an assortment of ice creams, smoothies, milk shakes, Hawaiian ice and coffees. We decided to try a piña colada Hawaiian ice. The small ($4) was definitely large enough to split between two people. The syrups they use are a bit too artificial and sweet for my liking (it could have been just our selection) but it was refreshing after spending the afternoon on the beach. If I went back I would try a different flavor, but don't let my review deter you. I'd definitely give this place another shot. PS - Kudos for using paper straws and wooden spoons!

    The soft serve ice cream with sprinkles and a waffle cone was delicious, however the two girls working were definitely in over their head.

    This adorable beachside ice cream shack has some of the best ice cream EVER. $4 for a giant cone that 2 people could easily share... i ate it all, of course. LOL. But seriously, the ice cream was real milk, old school but in super fun flavors like vanilla. Hehehe! Sugar high. This place is right on North Beach, too. Do it (:

    The cooler is essentially on the beach near Frenchy's. They have açaí bowls, ice cream, hot dogs, snow cones and more. Very fast and friendly service.

    Cute place! We stopped here on a whim for my stepdaughter who was craving Açaí. Decor was super cute and the menu had a variety of options. The bowl was delicious! Highly recommend for a light and tasty snack!

    Friendly service and delicious and creamy soft serve. Not icy and great vanilla flavor. Going back for a second one today!

    I knew I was going to be in the area a few weeks in advance and had been lucky to come across The Cooler in my research. We headed to the beach early in the morning from Tampa Bay and drove directly to The Cooler. The storefront shares a parking lot with the entrance to the beach. Walk directly up to the window and order from their menu of treats. The woman who was working that morning was extremely kind and took the time to make us some delicious Açai bowls. I really enjoyed mine, even more when I turned around and took 15 steps to stand in the sand and soak in the winter waves. I believe that they are renovating some of the space adjacent to the current shop, which will allow for some additional seating. I can only imagine how perfect these Açai bowls can be in the summertime!

    The berry bowl is amazing, so is the peanut butter bowl. I'll definitely be back. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and courteous.
