If you're looking for real ice cream, not counting calories only relying on taste, then this is the place for you!

While there are several Big Olaf locations, we like the St. Armand's Circle location which is off the beaten path a bit (Not right on the circle). A great place to hide from the crowds for a bit, and relax with great treats - then back to the circle to walk them off!

This place is great. Staff are fantastic. Must stop and have a cone. OR TWO!! Make sure you look at all the ice cream before picking just one.

Rich creamy ice cream with great portions at a reasonable price. The store on Siesta Key is always very busy, but if you go the the store in Lakewood Ranch there is plenty of room.

We would have desert there before dinner. They have the best marshmallow topping & home made waffle cones & bowls. It was a fun adventure!

The icecream is always good but the service is variable. Some of the workers give nice size scoops and some are skimpy. It's pricey, so I like a bigger scoop please. The flavors are all good, especially the Kaluah Crunch or the Banana

Wonderful ice cream store. Lots of choices and options, including fudge for sale. Always busy in the evening and customers sitting around outside on the porch enjoying their ice creams. Easy to find in Seista Key and if you enjoy ice cream, you'll be back.
