Following our visit to Kennedy Space Center, I wanted to stop by Tropic Ice Cream in Cocoa to continue visiting places serving Wisconsin Chocolate Shoppe ice cream. This store is small and nondescript, so much so that we passed right by it, and had to double back to find it! But we did, saw the Chocolate Shoppe sign out front, and came in ready for their ice cream. The owner was very friendly and welcoming, but...they no longer carried Chocolate Shoppe ice cream! He was having numerous middle man delivery issues and so had recently switched to Yoder's Southern Creamery from the Amish in Saratoga. We were disappointed to say the least. Fortunately Yoder's was up for the challenge - their ice cream was on a par with our beloved Chocolate Shoppe. I had the Triple Peanut Butter with Chocolate Fudge Brownie, my wife the Moose Tracks and a Gator flavor. All flavors were fantastic, rich and creamy! The ice cream is still great here, but they need to take out the Chocolate Shoppe signage that remained. read more

Can't speak to their ice cream but ordered 8 cookies for the gang and they were absolutely disappointing. My wife said they tasted like stale Walmart cookies. She was being nice read more

Ice cream was tasteful, service was good, the facility is very small, must seat out side. Ambiance, it's small.

A very unassuming but very good ice cream joint... From the outside, and even inside, it's really just small and unassuming, but what's offered makes it special. The ice cream they offer has to be the creamiest of any ice cream I have ever had. The flavors are all unique, some of them named quite funny, and so far I haven't found one I dislike. On today's trip to the shop, I had my first ever version of their Blizzard, but with hard packed ice cream instead. What an experience - it was like eating a super thick, and I mean super thick shake - can't wait to try it again. Service is always friendly, very efficient, and so patient with questions and even wiling to jaw a bit. A great little ice cream joint, and I'm sure our little hamlet will be showing it love moving forward. read more

Delicious ice cream flavors from Hershey. Owner told me their adding 2 new flavors in the next week or so: Fruity Pebbles mix & Blueberry Cheesecake. Grabbed a coffee with cookie & black cherry pint this time. read more

Super fresh waffle cones made in house. Over 30 flavors of Hersheys ice cream as well as soft serve pineapple and orange whip. Ice cream sundaes and tons of toppings. You can't go wrong here! I brought the family and for 7 of us it was 40 bucks, what a bargain! We found this place after doing some putt putt at Gator Golf across the street. We got to talking with the woman serving up the great treats and she was also the owner. So stop in and enjoy some great ice cream. read more

Tropic Ice Cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Cocoa, Florida

I stopped at this ice cream place on the way home from the beach. Outside of it, the sign says it offers 36 hand dip Hershey's flavors and 25 or more gluten free flavors which is amazing. It offers hard ice cream, soft serve, milkshakes, sundaes, ice cream floats, ice cream cakes and drinks. Each ice cream offering is labeled and describes the flavor. I got a small Cold-Brewed Caramocha in a cup after being happy to hear it was gluten free. It was delicious however I wish it was a little more ice cream in the cup for the size. The lady that served us was friendly and the inside of the ice cream shop is welcoming. It is also in a good location right off the road from Cocoa Beach. I would definitely go back and would recommend! read more

Literally so good. So many options to choose from and the owner rocks! 100% recommend if you want to support a local ice cream shop

Very good flavors lots of options with great portions!. Nice atmosphere! Owners are very nice

Cute little shop, lots of flavors to choose from! Stopped after a long day at the beach to cool off.

Clean inside. Best banana pudding ice cream. Pineapple whip was refreshing. Great service!

In the mood for Ice Cream? GET HERE NOWWW! I'd give it 6 if there was the option for a bonus . The owner is wonderful and great to chat with. It's a small business with BIG FLAVOR ! She beats the big come up the street hands down by miles. She has about 40 flavors on deck, shave ice and also some Italian ice flavors as well. If I lived here I'd be diabetic and probably have to use doordash because I'd gain so much weight eating here. Glad I'm visiting for work and will be back next time I'm in the Cocoa Beach/Merritt Island/Cape Canaveral area. So delicious. A flavor for every craving. Nom nom nom. Closed Monday because she needs at least 1 day off. Enjoy. read more

Tropic Ice Cream - Large cone with three scoops - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Cocoa, Florida

We've come over to Tropic Ice Cream foe dessert a couple of times, and besides flavorful, delicious ice cream and a huge variety of flavors what we love the most is the service. The owner is there every day and it's palpable the love and passion she puts into this place We've tried coffee, vanilla, bananas foster (yum!), and oreo... all fantastic. And the fancy waffle cones are worth it. Absolutely recommend it!! read more

Horrible experience- Asked for a milk shake and was told "i'll have to see if i can make it for you" after being told that I was about to walk out but was told they are able to make it. After the girl seemed to have an attitude and handed me the milk shake dripping all over the counter and quickly walked away before i could ask for another cup or some type of help as my cup was practically exploding? First time & Last time here. read more

Let talk ice-cream! . Cup or cone? . Toppings or no toppings? . Chocolate or vanilla? . Whatever your preferences are Tropic has you covered! The Disney inspired ice-cream parlor has everything from specialty cones and tons of unique flavors , soft serve , shaved ice and lots of yummy sundaes they even have tons of gluten free flavors! They are located directly next to one of our favorite pizza shops @papavitositalianrestaurant so grab a slice of pie then a scoop of ice-cream take a quick walk to the beach and BAM you have yourself a perfect summer day! Highly recommended the blue panda or #saltedbananasfoster !

The yelp review being high gives the impression they have very good ice cream. Sadly the serve run of the mill Hershey's ice cream. Very disappointing. If you want grocery store ice cream this is the place. They had ice treats too but we did not try those. read more

Again for disclaimer, rating on a Florida scale - a solid 4-stars for service, cost, and pretty good ice cream. Don't expect an LA artisan ice cream shop with the fancy flavors or LN2, because this is more like your basic Thrifty's ice cream, but better. They have moose tracks flavor here! I got a two-scooper on a waffle cone for an affordable $3.20 and she definitely did not skimp out on the scoops! The server was really friendly and patient as well, and allowed me to try some of the flavors before I finally decided. It's a little easy to miss being tucked away in the corner next to Papa Vito's, but its in the same plaza and I recommend you come check it out for some post-pizza dessert. read more

What. This place is SO GOOD. I've never had such amazing Italian ice--we tried the mango and passion fruit. They are homemade with real fruit juice. Too bad we live in Utah and won't be able to come back for a while. We'll be thinking about it every day. Ice cream was great too. read more

Solid ice cream place with shaved ice and sorbet too. The dude working was nice. They have the tiny spoons for samples. All six flavors we bought on two separate visits were good. Good come selection. This place is in small strip mall next to a very solid pizza and pasta restaurant, where you can sit and eat on the patio/deck area. It's small but we ate outside there for both the pizza and the ice cream. Support a local place and you'll enjoy this ice cream place. Also close to the Gator Mini Golf and go cart place (another good place to visit when in the area). read more

While on vacation we visited this ice cream shop, I looked up ice cream and every location we went to was closed except this one! I'm thankful for that! I'm not sure if the lady working was the owner but she was super sweet, friendly and very patient with 5 kids and 4 adults! We visited twice. The ice cream is great and they have a selection of different cones. The kids really enjoyed it and so did the adults! read more
