Want The Best Ice Cream In Toronto? Lick No Further!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking for the best ice cream in Toronto? We got you covered! There are few better ways to cool off and enjoy a treat than grabbing a Toronto ice cream. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Given that the city is massive, Toronto is loaded with many places that all offer their own take on the sweet treat. In fact, we even put eating local ice cream as one of the best things to do in Ontario in summer<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the years, we’ve gone for ice cream downtown or in the East end (Leslieville) after dinner with family, friends, or just us two. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each time, it was a great experience. But who\/where really <\/em>has the best ice cream? “Best” is a relative term – but some ice cream places in Toronto are certainly more known than others!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, to help you decide where to head for a frozen treat, we walked around Toronto to eat ice cream. We’re not kidding – we did this over a few days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the record: it sounds like a great idea BUT you can only eat so much ice cream in one day! Here’s where we went for Toronto ice cream and a few other notable mentions along the way!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Friendly Heads-Up: This post is made up of ice cream places mostly downtown. That said, it’s a post that is certainly not finished yet. We will add to this post as we explore and enjoy more places!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting off with arguably the most popular ice cream place in Toronto. Yes – we went to Bang Bang Ice Cream<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don’t know the hype (we didn’t at first), Bang Bang specializes in small-batch ice cream and unique “holders” (like waffle cones or baked cookies). You can even take some home in a “take-home” container.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Located over on Ossington in the city’s west end, it would be easy to miss since it’s just a small shop on the east side of the street heading north. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, the lineup outside makes Bang Bang a dead giveaway. We are never ones to wait in line because something is hyped up but our 35-minute wait was actually worth it.<\/p>\n\n\n

Honestly, the ice cream was excellent. As for flavours, we shared one scoop of campfire marshmallow and one scoop of London fog (like the tea). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don’t eat dairy, you’ll be happy to hear that they also have vegan ice cream on tap! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can get your ice cream in a cup, in a cone, between cookies (like an ice cream sandwich) – or in an actual waffle (we got this) which they bake fresh right there in front of you. Literally hot off the press.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, we’d say try out Bang Bang for the smooth ice cream and the nice staff who know their stuff (you can even sample – but only a few, please).<\/p>\n\n\n
