Cold Stone Creamery

Through almost 20 years of serving up the finest ice cream, cakes, smoothies and shakes, some things have certainly changed. And frankly, some things haven’t. Ever since we opened our first store back in 1988, we’ve been serving up what we refer to as Creations. In other words, if you want it in your ice cream you get it. By mixing nuts, fruits and candy into our smooth and creamy ice cream on a frozen granite stone (around here, we call it the stone) we're actually more like ice cream artists. Over the years, we’ve stumbled on a few concoctions of our own that we call our Cold Stone Signature Creations. Ice cream for breakfast, a smoothie for lunch, and a sensible cake for dinner? Who says you can’t eat this amazing ice cream for all three meals?

And best of all, the dairy cows live on a small, family owned dairy where they can graze on open pastures. All of our soy based vegan ice cream comes from Chicago Vegan Foods, who use soy grown in the United States mid-west, free of gmos and chemicals. We buy our milk, soy milk and other products from socially responsible companies with solid track records for both human and animal welfare. Happies for everyone!
