“Don't let the long line scare you”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed yesterday NEW

Leopold's is THE place to get ice cream in Savannah's historic district. Chances are you'll see a line outside the door but they do a good job of moving the line along. If you walk up to the right side of the counter as you enter, you'll see a holder of menus. Grab a menu and start deciding on the... More

“Super cool and tasty ”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed yesterday NEW via mobile

This ice cream parlor is the coolest I have ever seen. It has been around since 1919 and very historic. The chocolate and coffee chocolate chip ice cream was really tasty. The prices were very reasonable and the service was great.

“place with a long queue”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed yesterday NEW

It is a very famous place, with a lot of people waiting for ice cream. I have chosen a lemon curd and it was not very special. But overall it is a very nice experience to have ice-cream in a great weather in Savannah and it is one of very few take out places. The interior is nice - old... More

“Worth the wait”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed yesterday NEW

When you see the LONG line do NOT let this deter you from going. It is so worth the wait. Even though my husband gripped & groaned about the heat. He was thanking me when he was eating the best ice cream ever. Very unique flavors, but they do let you sample before you buy. I'm happy to hear that... More

“Good Variety of Flavors”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed yesterday NEW via mobile

Leopold's has a good variety of traditional flavors and unique flavors. I opted for the Run Bisque, which was sweet, which was definitely different. My husband got the Black Forest milkshake, which was thick and yummy. The line was fairly long, but moved quickly. The ice cream was delicious and definitely a little bit creamier than average - you could... More

“Good selection”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 days ago NEW

We walked in and was immediately greeted by all the workers. The young man that opened the door welcomed us and told us to come out of the heat and sit down and we didn't have to order if we didn't want to. What a great attitude everyone had in this store! The ice cream was super good and they... More

Description
No trip to Savannah is complete without a visit to Leopold's Ice Cream! Named the #5 Ice Cream in the World, Leopold's is a "Must-Do." You'll enjoy visiting our retro ice cream parlor, complete with old fashioned soda fountain and friendly soda jerks. You'll also experience a little piece of Hollywood in Savannah as you peruse Stratton Leopold's collection of film posters and props from films he has worked on over his 45 plus years in the movie industry! Leopold's Ice Cream was founded in 1919 by three immigrant brothers from Greece. They learned the art of candy and dessert from an uncle who had already settled in America. The brothers perfected the secret formulas and created the world famous Leopold's VeriBest™ ice cream.Our ice cream is made in house, one batch at a time, using family recipes handed down from the Leopold brothers. With our soda fountain creations and more than 20 flavors available at any given time, we've got something just for you!
