6 ice cream, frozen yogurt and dessert shops in Greenville, with hours from their own sites: most on Main Street, plus East North Street and Laurens Road.

Last checked 2026-10-16. Refreshed every three months.

Most of Greenville’s ice cream and dessert shops are on Main Street downtown, from North Main to the West End, within a short walk of Falls Park. Clare’s Creamery has two shops away from downtown, in Overbrook on East North Street and at Parkins Mill on Laurens Road.

How we made this list. The places come from OpenStreetMap records inside Greenville’s city limits, the same data behind our local directory, checked against each place’s own website on Oct. 16, 2026. We added Carmella’s and the second Clare’s Creamery shop because their own sites give Greenville city addresses. We left out Kilwins, Jeni’s, Marble Slab, Menchie’s and Bruster’s, whose Greenville location pages did not load or no longer exist, and places with no website of their own that we could not confirm a second way. Doughnut shops are on our bakeries list. The list is alphabetical. It is not a ranking or a recommendation, and nobody paid to be on it. Run one of these places? Write to us to correct your entry.
