Teddy's Ice Cream

This spot was a cute random find. They have indoor and outdoor door seating. I've been twice. First time I got the vanilla soft serve with sprinkles in a cone. I hated the taste of the cone and it took away from how yummy the ice cream was. Next time I got swirl soft serve with sprinkles in a cup and it was perfect.

Great selection of ice cream and soft serve. No frozen yogurt. Lots of toppings and cone selection. Overpriced though and not the nicest people. Cute indoor and outdoor seating.

I enjoyed a generous serving of chocolate dipped vanilla-chocolate swirl soft serve ice cream in a waffle cone for less than $6 after having a rough week at work. The owner or manager (Lydia) and the store employee were warm, welcoming and helpful in helping me navigate the massive offerings of scoops, pastries, donuts (50% off after 1pm), drinks, etc. Soft serve was the perfect smooth, creamy texture. I couldn't really taste the vanilla in the swirl because the chocolate was overpowering it, but I loved the deep chocolate flavor it has! Dairy flavor and sweetness level was on point and did not give me a unpleasant sugary or aftertaste that high fructose syrup tends to give. The chocolate hardshell was quite yummy too - more on the darker chocolate taste than sweet milk chocolate, just like how I prefer it.Will be back to try out more desserts on my post-dinner walks!

Perfect place to get some ice cream on a hot summer day! With free parking in their lot! You don't see a lot of those in Chicago these days. They have indoor and lots of shaded outdoor seating to enjoy your snack. I went with a classic, vanilla soft serve but in a waffle cone. I did not realize how much more soft serve I would get with a regular size waffle cone. I could've shared it with another person. It's $1 more for waffle cone or $1.50 for dipped waffle cone like mine in the pic. Look at the pretty swirl! I'll definitely be coming back to satisfy my soft serve cravings.

Great new business that just opened in Ravenswood. They have hard pack and soft serve ice cream, mix-ins, sundaes, shakes, dipped cones, even an option with Baklava! Their freezers also have ice cream by the pint or quart as well as individually packaged slices of cake. Did I mention they have VEGAN OPTIONS?The kid's cone of Spumoni I tried was great, perfect to enjoy on their sizable patio on a hot summer day. I look forward to many more delightful afternoons here.

Quick service. An abundance of ice cream flavors. Nice side patio with seating for those hot summer nights! Definitely can't go wrong with Teddy's!

WHAT A SHOP! Family owned and such nice staff. I also am a sucker for soft serve so I love that you can get soft-serve with mix-ins with their poseidon twists or can get some delicious hard-pack ice cream as well. Been there twice and really enjoyed a poseidon twist with oreo and strawberry-got a lot more than some other places for what I paid. Also returned another time and got their blueberry waffle cone and their cookie butter (which is also vegan), both were incredible. Seriously. I hope to return here and try other flavors, mix-ins, and also some of their greek desserts like their baklava!

Glad to have this new addition to the Ravenswood neighborhood, as well as another great option for ice cream on the North Side.Teddy's is brand new, and while they are still working out some kinks on the service side, your ice cream is still prepared fairly quickly and efficiently even with ling lines. Prices range from exceptional ($4.25 for a large swirl cone) to quite pricey (nearly $12 for some specialty sundaes).But, the quality is there.Teddy's appears to source their delicious ice cream from two local-ish distributors, Homer's in Illinois and Ashby's in Michigan. While I was initially disappointed and slightly worried, I must say that the ice cream is excellent. Creamy and flavorful, exactly how you want it.Because of their sourcing, there are a ton of excellent flavors to choose from. I went with one of their specials, a Greek sundae with figs and drizzled honey, selecting pistachio almond as my flavor. It was a perfect flavor combination, one I'm still thinking about while writing this review.And for just $6, it was a pretty excellent dessert!I'm looking forward to trying more from Teddy's, and am excited to see how they grow in the near future!

Teddys is an adorable little ice cream shop that opened up in Ravenswood. Not going to lie, the HUGE teddy bear and the ice cream sign is what made me pull over. But I can guarantee you even after the teddy bear comes down, I will be coming back! This place features an abundance of hard scoop and topping options along with soft serve, slices of Carlo's Bakery Cake, and even baklava. I got a double scoop with cookie dough for 8 bucks and the serving size was pretty decent, but the flavor and consistency was out of this world. They had some specials that looked dangerously good too. The ice cream artists working were great! They had some good recommendations, lovely explanations of the ice cream, and were just overall welcoming people. They have seating both inside and outside. The outside is really cute! If you're feeling fast, they have a race car you can sit in to enjoy your desserts. Great execution Teddy! I'm looking forward to indulge in my favorite dessert here in the near future.

This is a great spot for local desserts! They have a good selection of ice cream, soft serve and other frozen desserts. I had the waffle cone with amaretto cherry and chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream. It definitely scratched the ice cream itches I needed scratched. They also have a great selection of traditional Greek desserts. I took home the chocolate mousse, baklava, and chocolate cake(kinda like the cake version of Ferrero Roche). They were all fantastic and kept well in the refrigerator over a few days.The vibe of the shop is very casual. There are some weird service quirks like the flow of the restaurant. Maybe some old leftover hang ups from Covid? You're required to enter on one side of the shop, walk through the line of folks waiting for their order to place your order(one entrance, one exit). Overall, I definitely recommend this spot. I'll be back for sure!
