The Dipper

Yummy and reasonably priced ice cream shop! The Dipper is a walk up ice cream stand, with lovely outdoor seating right around the corner. Quick service and a good variety of treats.

Also known as Back 2 the Dipper.
Excellent menu includes Cincinnati Blue creamy whip, inspired by the King’s Island Smurf confection of the 1980’s. Also noted the walking taco salad with Frito or Doritos option. Friendly walk up service, parking around the corner.

Ice cream is a great price and is very delicious. Definitely better than other ice cream places around

Awesome local soft-serve ice cream shop with some unique menu items. A little neighborhood gem. The banana split is especially delish. They do a good job with safety, too, and patrons seem eager to give each other plenty of space. There are picnic tables just up the street to sit at, too.

The best ice cream place ever!!! They make my chocolate malt exactly how a malt should be. I don’t even have to say extra thick! These shakes are as thick as it gets. I love their slushies and soft serve. They have a great menu for great prices. Unbeatable prices a small shake is just $3!!! Be sure to tip them too.

We drive from Madeira to this place - it's a great ice cream place for selection and price. They do offer a handful of snack items beyond the ice cream items. This is a walk-up place with no bathroom access. There are 4 benches on the sidewalk or just walk to the end of the block where there's a park with picnic tables. For parking note that you should not use The one across the street (risk being towed) - there is a free lot a half block further from the shoppe. This is right beside italianette pizzeria so you have the option of ordering your pizza and having some ice cream while you wait!

A nice little place to have a nice dip of ice cream, soft serve, banana boat, hot dog, or whatever you are looking for on a summer day. They do take credit cards, so you can rest assured that you can have a sweet treat without stopping at an atm first.

one of my favorite ice cream places in Cincinnati! Its super affordable and the serving sizes are generous. I've always gotten great service. they have really good menu items, and great toppings.

This place is great & even better than The Cone, which was there years before. They have plenty of options, including slushie floats, and it's very affordable. You get a lot for your money. This is becoming one of our ice cream destinations for the summer!

Great soft serve ice cream. Lots of choicesfor toppings and variety of types. Generous portions. Reasonable prices. Pleasant employees. Located next to Italianette Pizza. Totally worth the trip!

One of the best ice cream places I've ever been to and one of the best shakes I've ever had. Me saying this should mean a lot considering I had my own ice cream shop. My kids loved it as well. Would recommend to everyone. Awesome service as well.

The Ice Cream here is Delicious, I just Love Thier Twist Ice Cream Cone's!

First time to The Dipper tonight at the recommendation of some friends. Great local soft serve shop. Friendly staff and good ice cream at a reasonable price!

Best Ice Cream in Cincinnati hands down! Great serving sizes and a wide variety. Super friendly staff and pup cups :)

Soft serve is where it’s at! Best ice cream around. Normally very quick even when there is a line. A must visit for the locals

The Dipper is a neighborhood favorite. This family-run shop specializes in soft-serve ice cream and various incarnations, including sundaes, milkshakes, 'flurries' (soft serve mixed and blended with your favorite toppings), and now serving Dole Whip Orange.

Queue up at the window for a tasty summer treat! Service is always friendly and speedy. Well worth the walk or drive, with convenient free public parking just a short walk north.

It's a popular place, so be prepared for a potential wait, the sidewalk can get crowded. But the wait is worth it! The soft serve is always the highest quality, and they get every order right!

The ice cream is not only a great price but the customer service is great.! Always so sweet :)))

Soft service ice cream is very good. I highly recommend this shop if you like soft serve.

The best ice cream and milkshakes there are in the world

The Dipper is such a quaint place to stop in for some ice cream! The service has always been fantastic and the vanilla is always so creamy! It's such a great place to stop in for a treat on a hot day. Totally recommend going there!
