Dairy Joy

Growing up, places like Dairy Joy were such a big part of my life, so when I spotted it while traveling, I knew I had to stop--especially since I now live in San Antonio and don't get to visit spots like this as often. Let me tell you, it was so worth the stop! The ice cream was absolutely fantastic, and the staff? They were just as sweet as the ice cream itself--so friendly and welcoming, they made the experience even better.The ambiance was so dope! From the retro vibes to the little golf carts you could take photos in, everything about this place was charming and fun. It brought back a wave of nostalgia, and I couldn't be happier I made the detour. Dairy Joy is a must-stop if you're ever in the area!

Can't believe this is the first time I've visited here. I kept seeing it in IG and I had to go. Finally finally today was the perfect day. We ordered a scoop of rum raisin, a scoop of pineapple dole whip, and a pup cup. The line seemed long but went fast.We sat down in the left side seating areas. There's another area on the right side. We wanted to be next to the cars. Elvis Presley was there too. Didn't take his pic.We enjoyed our ice cream and Mocha Coconut, my pup wanted pics but the cars. No one was there so we had fun taking some pics! Very cute place. Its drive through ice cream is next door. Very nice and convenient since 1958.

Sunday 9/15/2024I found this spot while searching through Reddit for Tampa's best ice cream so I decided to make a visit. They have a drive thru location and ice cream stand location that are right next to each other but I ended up going to the ice cream stand location. The service was pretty good: I called in person about flavor availability and they were kind in answering my question. They also kept that same kindness in person as well. Before going I wanted to try both their premium flavors and try their shake but I only fulfilled the premium flavor half. I sampled the cookies n cream (premium) and the chocolate fudge brownie (premium). They were both pretty good flavors but cookies n cream was my favorite (of the two) so I ended up getting a pint $7 of it.All in all, my visit to dairy joy was good one. The prices are fair, the service is nice, and the ice cream is good. I'd recommend this spot and come back in the future (I gotta try the shake lol).

A stop for a Sunday ice cream and stepping back in time. All sorts of options to enjoy! We had a small Hot Fudge Sundae and a butter pecan ice cream cone. Service is always friendly and you could play a game of cornhole, if you're interested or take a family photo in one of the mini classic cars. Elvis is always standing guard.

Delicious ice cream and super nice employees! Recommend the mint chip and fudge brownie flavors.

Amazing cherry dip soft serve!!!! I have been CRAVING cherry dip but it's so hard to find! Can't wait to try everything here. It's such a chill little spot, well thought out even with a small water fountain out by the side.Check it out!It's also open pretty late and always has a steady stream of customers.

I absolutely love the vibes here and that's the main reason I stopped by to try this place out. I wasn't expecting much, but the ice cream was delicious. I got a medium cup which comes with 3 scoops. I tried cookies n cream & cookie monster. The cookie monster was my #1 favorite. I will say compared to other ice cream shops they definitely give you big portions here. Overall: I can't wait to go back!

What a vibe, read on I've got the inside scoop ;)After a morning at the Davis Island dog beach, we were all craving a sweet treat. Saw this scene and it looked immaculate, old style 50s diner meets Florida tropical backyard. Being a Sunday, there was a line, but it moved fast.We got a small cup, birthday cake and fudge brownie with waffle cone ($5ish) and a pup cup which was FREE. Seating is all outside (and dog friendly) but with plenty of shade so you or your cone doesn't melt too fast. Make sure you walk around and get plenty of insta-worthy scoop shots ;)

Kid friendly with a nice play area for them to run around. The ice cream is pretty good as well.

If you're looking for great ice cream and even better vibes, then Dairy Joy is the place to be! They have so many ice cream flavors, you never run out of options to choose from! The soft serve ice cream literally melts in your mouth, it's so delicious. The drive through makes it easy to grab ice cream on the go or enjoy the walk up area which has lots of seating options and a vintage car area for the whole family to enjoy!
