American bakeries range from wholesale operations that supply restaurants to neighborhood shops that sell bread, pastries, cookies and cakes over the counter, and many of them also pour coffee. Bagel shops boil and bake on site and sell out of favorite flavors by late morning; donut shops open before dawn and are often family-run; patisseries and cake studios take custom orders for weddings and birthdays and usually need one to two weeks' notice. Ice cream parlors, gelato shops and frozen yogurt bars are seasonal in the northern states and year-round in the South and on the West Coast. Prices are posted per item, by the dozen or by the pound, and most shops now take cards and mobile payment.

Traffic in Tampa peaks on weekday mornings and afternoons, so allow extra time then.

I love this place the ice cream gets 5 stars but when I ordered the last two times here they do not pay attention to my flavors. I ordered my son a medium 1 espresso and chocolate chip cookie dough and they gave me 1 espresso and cookies and cream. Then I went just this past Sunday but I just decided to eat it now but I wanted the same as my son flavor because it’s our fave and I have nothing but the espresso cookie flavor thankfully she did added my nuts. But I’ve noticed this happened twice and they were busy and tell us to move to the front counter to get out of people way but it sucks to be disappointed other than that I have no problem here! Me and my family is always here!

Best ice cream I’ve found in Tampa so far! Huge portions, low prices, huge cool weird selection of sodas. Got the cotton candy and strawberry cheesecake. Tried multiple other flavors and they were all very good!! Customer service was the best too.

Our Spring Training must visit. If you are looking for a great dessert spot. Look no further. Not only great ice cream - also a great variety, with plenty of flavors to choose from. Very friendly staff who goes above and beyond. Will offer samples to help you choose. When a lot of places are cutting back, they provide generous portions of delicious ice cream! With very fair prices, check them out, you won’t be disappointed

Such a nice surprise!!! A place that does a Brownie Sundae with Hot Fudge!!! So hard to find anything in South Tampa that does it. Daughter loved her ice cream and we will be back with the entire family next time.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Delightful Banana Split for Any Day! If you’re looking for a dessert spot that truly treats both families and everyday cravings with top-tier care, Strachan’s Ice Cream & Desserts is your dream come true. I recently tried their banana split, and wow—it hit all the right notes! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming—just like an old‑fashioned gem that’s been part of the community for years . The service was prompt, friendly, and down-to-earth, making the experience that much sweeter . The banana split itself? Absolutely delicious. The homemade ice cream was rich, creamy, and perfectly frozen—not too hard, not too soft—with classic flavors that tasted indulgent yet balanced. The banana was fresh, and the toppings complemented every bite without overpowering the ice cream. If your family loves dessert, this is the kind of treat that brightens up any weeknight or makes a weekend feel extra special. What I loved most: • Family-friendly and welcoming – great for kids and adults alike. • Homemade quality – everything from ice cream to fudge is made in-house . • Consistency and care – creamy texture, generous portions, and just the ri
