Matt's Homemade Ice Cream - Gulf Shores

My wife and stopped at Matt's a few years ago and enjoyed a couple of nice cones with no complaint whatsoever. Experience this time was not so good.I dealt with a phone call in the car while my wife bought us each a waffle cone with one scoop of ice cream in each. It was a 70 degree afternoon, and she walks fairly fast, but my cone was already dripping by the time she got it out of the store, walked about 30 feet and handed it to me. Yuk a real mess.THEN she told me each cone cost $8.....bear in mind each was one dip in a waffle cone. We were in Rochester, MN in January. Rochester is a rather pricey small city. The same item at a very nice ice cream shop there cost us $5 per cone. Sadly, we will not return to Matt's. Too much money for a sub par product. If we want ice cream, we will either wait until we are back up north or just go to the grocery stores around here.

We lived in Daphne for 8 years. Moved away and came back for Mardi Gras. Went to Matt's for ice cream. Ice cream was goo. The gummy items that we purchased were horrible, hard as a rock. 4 different types. If your going to sell additional items like gummies it would be great if it's was fresh. Went to the gentleman working and he said he wouldn't exchange or give a refund or do anything. customer service ruined this part of our vacation. Asked for his name and said he didn't want to tell me. Don't come to Matt's unless you want horrible customer service and old candy. Feb 12, 2023 2:30 pm

Ice cream was great and so were some of the chocolate peanut butter treats9/10

The purple daze and stellar coffee flavors were beyond delicious. So far our favorite ice cream place around the area! I love the boardwalk and scenery around this location so you dont have to just sit inside to enjoy your ice cream.

We love our ice cream, and thought we'd try this out. It's much more than just ice cream! It brings me back to walking to the corner store for penny candy when I was a kid. One side of the shop was all candy you could scoop into bags. Upon entry you can get chocolate sweets, fudge, pretzels etc. and then. The ice cream. They have a large array of flavors and specials. I got the warm brownie with ice cream and fudge. It was fantastic. The young girl working was great and helped us get what we wanted. There's quite a few places for ice cream in town, but I think Matt's should definitely be on your list!
