About this business

It's not everyday that a local ice-cream shop is rated the best on Good Morning America. With this, and several other accolades under its belt, the Big Dipper Ice Cream is one of Montana's most favored spots for homemade ice-cream. Occupying a small space on Higgins Avenue in South Missoula, Big Dipper Ice Cream serves deliciously quirky flavors, from White Mint Oreo and Maple Walnut, to Mexican Chocolate, and Salted Caramel. To add to its charm, it operates out of a cute counter-serve shop, with large picnic benches outside... read more

Great Ice Cream The Big Dipper Ice Cream has been a part of Missoula for many years. It would not be summer if you did not go to The Big Dipper at least once. The have a wide selection of flavors and the ice cream is outstanding.

Great Homemade Tasting Ice Cream! Be prepared for a long line if you want ice cream. I had the mexican chocolate which was so good! The scoops are really big and the waffle cones are jumbo sized. The menu is huge, so give yourself a little extra time to review it. There is not that much seating, so I advise having someone save seats while you wait in line. Worth the wait by far!

We were disappointed with the service provided this evening. There was absolutely no organization and the left hand sure didn't know what the right was doing. Our order was not correct and we waited for 30 minutes to receive the final cone to our order, meanwhile, the rest of the ice cream was melted, as we purchased to take home for the mother in law. We certainly will not spend that kind of money for ice cream, when other places are much more organized and prompt with service.

I used to love this place, it was a must try and a place I took every out of town guest. But lately I've been so disappointed with the service and attitude of the employees. I get everyone is on edge... but that isn't any reason to be rude and hard to work with. Today's issues: 1. the girl at the window was wearing a mask, well sort of..... She had it over her mouth, but not her nose, which defeats the purpose. She also kept touching it, and not washing her hands. SHE HANDLES THE PUBLIC'S FOOD. 2. They aren't doing any sampl... read more
