Fabulous ice cream shop with 24 flavors! Excellent quality and lots of topping choices. They even serve shave ice.

This is one of those places you need to set your smartphone mapping directions to and just GO! We had some very different, unique ice creams you’re not easily going to see elsewhere and the sweet girl behind the counter is ready to talk it up! Loved it and sitting outside on the bench or table taking in the cool air, wow, it was an amazing side diversion, definitely worthy of more down the road!!!

Delicious ice cream and amazingly friendly service! We stopped here for directions to a snorkeling spot, and not only did we get fantastic directions(with local insider knowledge) we ended up enjoying generous servings of their yummy ice cream. Kona coffee, haupia coconut, brilliant purple sweet potato, and green tea. All were great. I wish I had asked the young Hawaiian girl’s name who served us and helped us find the snorkeling so I could give her a shout out. She was so delightful!

Do not get shave ice here. Cups too small. Ice and syrup spill everywhere. Not impressed.

The ice cream is good, but the hours they are open are not predictable, and just because it’s during the«open» time, don’t make a special trip as you may find them closed!

Why is this place never open??? I tried in the morning, afternoon and at night. They seem like they are never open??? What are the hours seriously?

Dave’s Ice Cream is Da Bomb. The Hawaiian mud pie and Kahlua Fudge are amazing. However, even more amazing is the Ube(sweet potato) ice cream. Bright purple and sweet!

Owners and staff were amazingly helpful and nice! First time ever trying UBE ice cream and it was amazing! Only problem was they ran out of UBE before our trip was over. We were so bummed! Other then that I will be there everyday when I come back!

Omg!!! I can’t believe I’ve never tried this place before! Some really yummy, creamy ice cream!!! Someone else said it tastes too«store bought» but I couldn’t disagree more! The cute little girl working here was super nice and accommodating with our indecisiveness and wanting to sample all the different flavors. If you like coconut, I would absolutely recommend the coconut Mac nut… So darn delicious!

Meh Ice cream. It’s like your standard generic supermarket brand. Go across the street to the Antique Store and get you some Tropical Dreams ice cream!

Oh my goodness, the salted caramel. That’s the one. And the mint chip. Dave’s Ice Cream is the spot. Super friendly service, good prices, and the best ice cream. Ever. Get the salted caramel.

Stopped at Dave’s after a day of exploring the Kona side. Friendly lady working the counter didn’t rush anyone and offered samples if we wanted to try anything. I had shave ice with a scoop of ube ice cream in the middle and it was the best shave ice experience I ever had. The shave ice consistency was great and the scoop of ube put it over the top. Big servings too, the small was more than enough to satisfy me. Pass by if you get the chance, you won’t be disappointed.

So yummy. The icecream has some unique flavors available and is the best I tasted on the island, the shave ice is so good, get a small because I cannot imagine how big a large is! Friendliest service we have had on the island(among many great experiences) don’t miss this place it is a great stop when heading north towards Kona.

Great find, while we driving around Kona side. Never heard of Dave’s until we pulled up. Friendly person who gave us plenty of tastes. The Kahlua Fudge was KILLER. Support these guys!

Fun selection of ice cream flavors to try, including some that are unique to Hawaii such as the purple sweet potato and kona coffee(called mudslide). They let you sample as many flavors as you like and are really friendly.

The ice cream was so creamy and refreshing. They had unique flavors and the service was super friendly. They even make a shave ice with a scoop of ice cream in the middle. Wish I would have seen that before I ordered. This place was amazingly clean and airy. Good amount of parking but I’d guess it gets really busy on a weekend. Bring cash or stop at the ATM up the street first.

Directions: Mamalahoa Highway near Patz Pies across from«Chinese BBQ» If you haven’t tried Dave’s ice cream on the big island you are missing out! Family owned and operated Dave’s serves Hawaiian made ice cream with much aloha. I’ve stopped there every day since coming home to see my parents. The three best things so far? Coconut ice cream, sweet potato ice cream and SHAVEICE!!! This place beats Ben and Jerry’s hands down.
