Where to Find the Best Ice Cream Near Havre de Grace

Today, it’s time to celebrate National Ice Cream Day — quite possibly the best holiday of the summer.

Treat yourself to a cone or dish, a banana split or milkshake and cool down from the hot summer temps this weekend.

Havre de Grace Patch readers shared their favorite local spots to get the frozen sweet treat. We’ve rounded up the top reader picks below.

Enjoy National Ice Cream Day at one of these popular sweet shops:

1. Keye’s Creamery (Aberdeen) — Their premium ice cream is made from the farm’s grass-fed cows and is then hand-mixed right at the creamery. Quarts and pints of ice cream are also available for purchase at the creamery or at other locations across Harford County.
2. Bomboy’s (Havre de Grace) — Known traditionally for their handmade chocolate treats, Bomboy’s is also home to some of the best ice cream in the area. Flavors include: Cookies Galore, Snickerdoodle, Oreo Cheesecake and Cotton Candy.
3. Broom’s Bloom Dairy (Bel Air) — Winner of multiple awards, Broom’s Bloom won a spot on our list as readers raved about the irresistible old-fashioned ice cream. No objection here!
4. Arctic Circle (Churchville) — Prefer soft-serve ice cream instead? Arctic Circle is a favorite among our readers for the creamy ice cream and shakes. (Is your mouth watering yet?)
5. Bruster’s Real Ice Cream (Havre de Grace) — With locations across Maryland, Bruster’s is less of a tourist spot as it is a common ice cream pit stop. The large scoops are more than plenty to keep our Annapolis readers satisfied.
6. Jarrettsville Creamery & Deli (Jarrettsville) — The homemade ice cream is made daily in house and served up in over 20 flavors. (Coconut Almond Chip, anyone?) Did we mention their waffle cones are made fresh at the creamery too? Yum!
