Village Creamery - Niles

Haven't been here in years and it's still delicious! This is a great place to stop if you want to try something different than your usual ice cream flavors because they have Filipino inspired flavors of ice cream. I ended up ordering two scoops of the avocado ice cream and bought a small tub of ube to take home.

Open for 20 years (since 2001) and year-round, making a wide variety of flavors, from old staples like chocolate and vanilla to purple yam, whiskey, mango, coconut, and more. You can buy to-go packages, cones, shakes, etc., and they have always been friendly and accommodating whenever we stop by. They have waffle bowls, cones, dipped and with toppings, like m&ms, sprinkles and so forth. Great location on the corner of Waukegan and Oakton, across from the public library and post office, near Home Depot, H-Mart and so forth.

Love this place! Their ice cream is the best. Only thing is, the workers are now like high school kids and sometimes are rude. One girl must’ve been having a bad day because she kept slamming everything and she just wasn’t a happy person. The other guy she worked with was super friendly though.

Best local Filipino ice cream shop in the suburbs! Save yourself the trip take three or four pints home to keep in the freezer to have a refreshing treat for friends and family.

Lots of amazing flavors to choose from. The employee was super helpful and kind! Great location. There is a $10 minimum for credit cards. My only complaint is it is the seating area is not clean.
