About this business

This is not just any ice cream store. This is a "cool" place to get ice cream. Located in the Shepard Square Shopping Center, it offers an inner-loop atmosphere with cool tunes playing in the background and a hip staff. Do not leave without taking a silly picture in the picture booth. You will wish you were a teenager again, and you will probably end up acting like one. Homemade and yummy, the ice cream flavors are wild and interesting. Select from an assortment of toppings, and then stand back and stare in wonder, as a guru... read more

Some of the best ice cream in the world! You need to go and give a high five to the staff there for making such a great product.

Gone way downhill over the past few years. All the positive reviews on this website are non-existant at today's amys.

Best Ice Cream in Houston – First discovered Amy's when we lived in Austin. They are the best! So many good flavors, I can't name them all. Even their hot fudge is homemade. I've tried other places, but now I'm spoiled and keep coming back.

Best Ice Cream in Houston – Hands down, this is the best ice cream in Houston. Too bad there is only one location, but a lot of restaurants serve their ice cream with dessert (Barnaby's Cafe, Mission Burrito, Star Pizza, etc). Mexican Vanilla is an all-time favorite, but it is always fun to try the other flavors. MY favorite funky flavor - Avocado!

Better than the others. – Amy's Ice Cream is impressively good. I'd give them 5 stars, but I can count on one hand the number of times I've gone there and waited less than 15 minutes in line. Even on slower nights, the wait is ridiculous. They have 2 people on the line, and usually they're working the register, too, which takes even more time. The treats are unbeatable, but the staffing is poorly thought out. I do, however, wish they'd have my favourite flavour more often. The hibiscus flower is incredible, and the Guinness ... read more

Best Icecream EVER! – I was introduced to the ORIGINIAL Amy's during college and have gone to the Memorial location several times ... this location falls between the two. It still have the creativity and flair of the original but without the intangibles of the Austin location. But the ice cream is still on point & that's the most important part! Amy's has seasonal flavors to try & most taste like the name. My all time favorie is Mexican Vanilla w/ peanut M&Ms. Try it & you'll be a believer.

Youngsters and the young at heart flock to this campy parlor for great ice cream and good times. – The Scene Although the carnival atmosphere of the Shepherd Plaza club scene has faded, it's hard to overlook the two humongous Holsteins standing atop this place, offering a giant cup of coffee to passersby. That rather astonishing sign, garnished with purple neon, keeps perfectly with the kind of campy "Pee-wee's Playhouse" decor and ambience you'll find inside this Houston version of the longtime Austin ice-cream emporium. Th... read more

It's the coolest, man... – I've been going to Amy's for about 10 years now and I can say, withouth reservation, that it is the best ice cream in Houston. They have some standard flavors (Mexican Vanilla, White Chocolate, Sweet Cream, etc.) but they have 4 or 5 flavors that change every week, so theres always something new to try. The servers are creative and fun, though perhaps a bit startling to those unused to the Montrose/Shepherd styles. I definitely reccomend it to everyone, but it's particularly fun for kids and casual... read more

Best Ice Cream in town! – They have really fun flavors, and all the people that work there are really funny and nice. I really recommend giving Amy's a try.
