Amazing place, people and Ice cream! Very sweet lady that served us and done an amazing job on our mason jars. Definitely coming back before leaving Florida!
Absolute fantastic little ice cream spot! Came in with a big order for 5 people written down and the 2 ladies working were super helpful. The ice cream was really good too! Will definitely return before my vacation is over.
The ice cream is good but nothing to rave about. On the other hand, the lady behind the counter is very sweet. Giving the area, its a solid choice.
Finding a vegan ice cream option by the shore?!!! SO happy!! the atmosphere was so cute, a 50s diner style with a working juke box! they have one flavor a chocolate, chocolate chunk we had with a sugar cone, something new and very very good! a great after dinner treat 😊
Fantastic ice cream. Excellent service and super nice people. Love coming here. Try an iced coffee w scoop of ice cream. Yum!
My son and I visited for the first time after Para sailing at the Englewood Beach. Staff was friendly, atmosphere is fun and inviting to sit down and enjoy some great ice cream. We have been back 3 times in the last week. To e to hit the gym, but its worth it!
Wonderful assortment of ice cream. Very cute decore and the ice cream was fantastic
This place was great! I cant wait to share it with friends/family when they come to visit. Step inside and its like traveling back to days gone by; charming interior, delectable aromas (they just finished making waffle cones when we arrived), a menu full of delicious flavors, including vegan options (which my friend really enjoyed) and a very friendly and pleasant server. I look forward to my next visit!
Very good! Waffle cones tasted great, werent too brittle or too soft. Had the graham central ice cream, loved it! Very clean shop. Overheard they will be relocating around June to a bigger store. I guess me and the wife will have to visit real soon and ask where.
This quaint ice cream parlor is just perfect to end a hectic day. Nothing helps your mood better than an ice cream treat!
This place was awesome for 2 main reasons. Great ice cream and great customer service. They are really passionate about treating people well and met us with smiles and enthusiasm. Tucked away in a strip mall don’t overlook this place. It was our favorite place to go while staying on Manasota Key. Generous portions too!
Great place for an ice cream! Nice area with a 50s vibe! Very cool!
Super yummy, fresh cones. Huge scoops, a large variety of flavors. This place fulfilled our family’s vacation ice cream date with flying colors!
Just stopped by and had the bast icecream eating experience of my life, so chill and enjoyable.
This was the best experience! The cutest ice cream shop & everyone was overly nice to me and our three kids. It was so nice and friendly we wanted just to come back and chat. It was honestly the nicest people we’ve met in Florida thus far!!!! Best ice cream w the best prices!
Best ice cream place ever! We trusted the good reviews and drove a little bit! It was totally worth it. Ice cream is tasty and the vintage decor is so fun! Very friendly owners!
Yes their ice cream is amazing, lots of flavors, creative combinations and signatures. What else can you want from an ice cream shop? Shakes? Amazing! Malts? Amazing! Cute retro vibe? Yup! Working jukebox? Got it! Locally made kettle corn to take home for the day you aren’t there? Yes!!!! Locally made fudgey goodness? Yeah!Also, awesome folks and the opportunity to support local and shop small!!!
Oh my Lord, I had a strawberry cheesecake and raspberry half and half and it was the best ice cream EVER!

Fantastic selection at a great price with comfy indoor / outdoor seating. Soon to have the largest indoor ice cream space in the county so youre Made in the Shade! Check out their double AD in Coffee News delivered locally all around Englewood, Port Charlotte / North Port, and Punta Gorda!
We have solutely love this place already been here twice Ive been here for a week we plan to be back multiple times during our vacation trip here from Michigan. There is plenty of selection do homemade waffle cones are to die for there is chocolate waffle cones and vanilla waffle cones. The midnight chocolate ice cream is the flavor of January and it is fantastic..
What an awesome little ice cream shop! They have a wide variety of flavors, an abundance of sweet treat options, cotton candy, and cold brews. The owners were very friendly and down to earth people. Treats are fairly priced and they have lots of space for parking. Highly recommend if you’re in town on vacation or looking for a regular sweet spot!
Awesome service and some really yummy Ice Cream from a local Shop! Will be a return customer
These guys have so many options its so hard to choose and that cheesecake good lord dont get me started so yummy. I do wish they had smaller options for there blizzards. I cant eat all of that lol.
Great service and all the flavors look and taste amazing! I wish I could have tried them all!
Great ice cream 🍦. Employees very friendly.
Delicious! Mint chip is my favorite, but have also tried the no sugar added black cherry and I love that one too ❤️
Had a great experience here! Loved their flavor selection and the ice cream was delicious!
This place is awesome. The staff is so friendly, they have awesome prices, and you’ll always get a large amount of ice cream. They have a huge selection and are very helpful when trying to get you exactly what you want. It’s really cozy in here, too. I would 100% recommend to go here.
Id give them 15⭐s if I could. Good service, great attitudes and awesome selection!
Good old school ice cream shop
Family friendly, lots of icecream variety flavor plus always nice to support small businesses. Whole family enjoy the ice cream and if you get the yellow gum ball from the machine its free ice cream for you the next day. How cool is that!!!!!!
Great ice cream and super sweet couple who owe and work at the shop! Stop in and grab some ice cream! 🍦
The couple that own this shop are really kind and LOVE what they do...it shows. They strive to make unique sundaes that match your hearts desire for sweets. Highly recommend them for your sweet tooth!
Great ice cream! Hersheys, Yoders, and Blue Bell. Friendly staff. Also, Retro soda pops in bottles and cans.Seating inside and outside. Open year round....Mmmm, yummy
LOTS of choices of excellent ice cream, very friendly staff. I just wish it wasnt the last day in Florida that I found it!!! I will most definitely be back.
Very good ice cream! And outstanding customer service!!!
Much yum! And super nice staff
Very friendly staff and a great environment. Wonderful selection of ice cream and amazing flavors.
Really yummy ice cream and friendly helpful servers. The plus is that the scoops are generous and the prices beat others in the area and they were open after the sunset--until 9:30!!! Thank you
Vegan ice !! Cool vibe with old juke box etc lots of choices of ice cream, fudge, cookie dough sundaes galore. Must try
Absolutely love it!! The place smells like fresh baked cookies and there are!! My kids love all the different flavors of icecream and the owners are so nice to let them try samples. There are just too many to choose from, but a must try is the gram cracker icecream and the pumpkin!!
Nice people good ice cream
Delicious ice cream, great variety, very reasonable prices, friendly staff.
Its a awesome hole in the wall. Tons of flavors,and very friendly people.
Great place! Great service! Great Treats! Fun for friends and family. They were very nice and welcoming!
I enjoyed the no sugar added black cherry
Its a really good spot to get some ice cream.
Great ice cream! very friendly people, they have many amazing items and tons of flavors of ice cream! Something for anybody! A vintage jukebox and lots of bottled sodas! Definitely will return to try more. My buddy got a cinnamon bun sundae! I didnt even know this was a thing! Haha. If you happen to be in Englewood give them a try! I enjoyed the best milkshake Ive ever had! A mix of brownie ice cream and honey roasted peanut butter! Make up your own! They also have shaved ice or snow cones!
Our favorite local ice cream spot! The keylime and coconut combination is mind blowing! We love their pup ice cream to go also 😋
Best dessert find of our entire trip to Englewood! We were in town for a week and went once for ice cream cones.. and a 2nd time for cheesecake. Both..awesome! If your from Michigan like we are, youll appreciate the fact that THEY HAVE ACTUAL SUPERMAN ICE CREAM! (At least they did at the time of our visit.) I believe I spoke to the owners the first night and they are very friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable about the area. The 2 gals working the 2nd time were also super friendly and offered speedy service. If we are ever passing through again, this will be my pick!
It was delicious ice cream with lots of flavors to choose from! Owners were so friendly and helpful!
We are local and are full-time resident in Englewood so we get to stop by this place at least 2-3 days a week. The couple that own it (Mike and Rebekah) are great and the service there is always friendly and you are glad that you stopped by. They have several dessert options but we really like the ice cream which is what we go for most of the time. Whenever we have company in town we make sure that their visit involves at least one trip to Made in the Shade and all of our family loves it as well.There is a large selection of ice cream and they make their own waffle cones which my wife loves. The decor is really nice with a jukebox that works and you can play anything that you want. This is a great place to go for dessert whether you are here for a week or a season.
The ice cream was good, but if you care about social distancing and masks, this is not the place for you. NOBODY was distancing or wearing masks...not even the personnel. Reaching down into the freezer to scoop ice cream and not one person wearing a mask. If we hadnt brought people with us, we would have walked out. Wont be going back!!
Amazing ice cream!! Everyone was really nice and helpful. Definitely worth the visit!!
Great ice cream selection, easy choices not confusing like a lot of shops
Loved it. Cool place, great service
Amazing ice cream, amazing service, and even had a puppy safe ice cream for my doggy! 100% will be back as soon as possible!
Best ice cream in South West Florida hands down!!! Super friendly owners! Super clean retro seating area. My husband got a coconut coffee float in a mason jar amazingly good. I got a milkshake cant go wrong with a good old fashioned style milkshake. Will definitely be loyal customers.
Yummy amazing ice cream!
One of the absolute best little ice cream places youll ever find. Awesome throwback vibes, retro drinks and design (even a working jukebox), amazing creations (ice cream & cotton candy burritos are my favorite so far) and all done by some of the absolute kindest and happiest people you could meet. Since moving to this area and stumbling upon this gem, it has become our go to and weve become regulars. I cant say enough good about the owners, the service or what they create and sell. Definitely worth checking out if you havent already!
The Best Quality Ice Cream Shop around.The Home made Waffle cones, Waffle Sundae bowls are ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ delicious.The Ice cream is Unbelievable.Toppings galore and all quality.The atmosphere is a Time capsule of Old Day Ice Cream Soda Shops.A Must Visit if in the area.
Loved all the flavor choices. Really good icecream and friendly service. I had a scoop of key lime with a scoop of coconut. It was excellent.
This place is great!! The staff are very friendly and helpful! 😊 The shop has an awesome 50s style vibe complete with a jukebox! There are so many sweet treats you wont know what to choose but you cant go wrong with any of them! From fudge, to cotton candy to truffles! Everything is awesome! And I havent even mentioned the ice cream yet! Theres got to be close to 50 flavors!! 😲 Definitely stop here to indulge your wildest dessert fantasies! 😁

A fun old school ice cream shop!
Wow! First visit here, it will not be my last. Very friendly people. I had some kind of oatmeal cookie ice cream in a pumpkin spice waffle cone. So good!
