Island Ice Factory - Carolina Beach

The best ice cream and Italian ice in the area! We absolutely love this place, and the owners are wonderful people.

As soon as I entered the ice cream shop, I was warmly welcomed. Everything looked delicious and fresh! They allowed me to sample as many gelato flavors as I wanted. I tried the cookie dough chip, mint chocolate chip, butter pecan, and banana nut pudding, and they were all fantastic. I initially intended to order just one cup, but I found it hard to choose. Ultimately, I decided on two scoops: Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and Butter Pecan in a waffle cone! It was by far the best gelato I've ever had. I'll definitely be back—I loved it!

Our family absolutely loves The Island ice factory. Their nutter butter pb is amazing! The owners and the staff have always been delightful as well.

Great flavors and the refill cup is a great deal for the summer!

It's amazing !!! We tried three other ice cream shops and this one was the Best!
