The South Pole

Several options! I counted 27 ice cream flavors available, and several shake options too. The best part was that I was able to combine the flavors for a shake. I ordered a strawberry banana milk shake. It was delicious. There are only 2 tables inside to sit.

Stopped by on a Saturday and the place was busy! They had plenty of workers to handle the steady stream coming into the restaurant and the drive thru. Employees were kind and quick to help. We just got ice cream and it did not disappoint. Such great chocolate and PB flavor! It was a great family place with lots of families gathering indoors and on the picnic tables. Cute decor too.

I love the South Pole! I definitely love that it's a local business and love their ice cream. Everyone is so friendly that works there too. You can sit and order inside and they also have a drive thru!

Our waitress was very friendly and speedy, which was very important because it was a hot day. Absolutely the sweetest the ice cream shop we found today! And the peach ice cream is so fresh it makes your mouth smile. There was seating to eat inside and outside and everything was so cute. When we are back in Tipton, we will come back to here again. Love the decor! Definitely a family place to visit!

Our favorite local spot for ice cream! They have some yummy food items on the menu too! I recommend trying the chicken wrap with boom sauce if you don't mind a little spicy kick!

I have been a life long customer of the South Pole. My childhood favorite is the Soft served chocolate dipped top Heaven!! Just like when I was a kid. I've had 2 this week!!. It has changed hands over the years, and gone through many physical upgrades from the original trailer. My exwife said it was the best chocolate shake she has ever had!! Love, love, love the South Pole!!!!

My favorite ice cream shop. Always friendly service. Taco salad is a great choice when you need a light lunch. I stop here weekly for my chipwhiches (ice cream between two cookies). Love it as a snack and my office loves them too. If you like ice cream and are in town then stop here. Right across from the park to let the kids run off their energy.

A few blocks south of downtown Tipton (near the park) is an independent ice cream shop. The shop has both indoor and outdoor dining (a pergola covered patio) available. Although the walk up window was closed during my visit, I was still able to order from the counter inside.They have a variety of "hard dipped ice cream" as well as more types of iced beverages/cones/sundaes than you would normally think of. The dining room clean and had a polar theme working. The staff was friendly and greeted me. I was a little confused because the ice cream barrels were not individually labeled at the counter. They do have a behind the counter menu which I missed seeing, but the server pointed out the flavors by arrangement order. Very helpful! I got a small and was very pleased with the size as the ice cream towered over the cone. It was also cold enough to not melt immediately either.The only negative was that the ice cream wasn't as creamy (probably a lower fat content) than my favorite places. But the flavor was good and I would gladly return if in the area.Note that they do have some basic food items like hot dogs, chicken tenders, and a tenderloin, but I didn't try any of those items.Review #2817

Good food but always slow service. Be prepared to park and wait for your food, even if they aren't busy.

Great walking taco, good ice cream, several different flavors of cokes and super nice family who owns this place. I would also recommend the coney and the tenderloin with cheese.
