We’re More Than Chocolate: Your Favorite Ice Cream Store in St. Petersburg, Florida

Sometimes you want chocolates, sometimes you want ice cream. Kilwins serves up both with only the finest and most carefully selected ingredients. Ice cream enthusiasts love the flavors and quality of Kilwins Original Recipe Ice Cream. It’s creamier, richer, and more satisfying than any other ice cream you’ve ever tasted—and why the best ice cream in St. Petersburg is only found at Kilwins.

From our very own Mackinac Island Fudge to our buttery smooth, copper kettle-cooked caramel, the special flavors we offer are Kilwins exclusives. 

Our ice cream is crafted in our own specially-designed tubs which expertly control the temperature and consistency of our ice cream. You can treat yourself to a scoop in a bowl or a cup, but we recommend our waffle cones, which are made fresh daily in stores.

You’ll get to experience the classic flavors you’ve come to expect from an ice cream shop, along with specialty flavors, sorbets, and even a few options that fit the needs of those with dietary restrictions. Our secret to the smoothest, creamiest flavor? It starts with “ultra-premium” ingredients. Sourced from family farms we know and trust, our dairy is the freshest available and helps us produce ice cream that wows your taste buds.

Our ice cream counter offers milkshakes, toasty malts, and other selections to help you cool off in the Florida heat. Some of our selections may be seasonal, so be sure to come back frequently to see what’s new. And don’t worry, we always offer free samples of all our flavors so you can be certain you get the one that suits you best. 

If you’re traveling around St. Petersburg by golf cart, making a pit stop at Kilwins for a cone is a great way to cool off. Why not take it to North Straub Park and enjoy the beautiful city views from a cool patch of grass?
