South Carolina Shop Crowned 'Best Ice Cream Parlor' In The State

Craving a sweet treat? There's no better way to cool down on a warm summer day than a scoop (or two!) of your favorite ice cream. Whether you prefer a tried-and-true classic flavor like chocolate or vanilla or an overloaded option piled high with toppings like nuts or caramel, in a bowl or in a cone, there are plenty of incredible creameries and shops around the Palmetto State that are worth a visit.

Using reviews, awards and accolades as well as first-hand experience, LoveFood compiled a list of the "best ice cream parlor" in every state, the shops that have become a go-to for customers with a sweet-tooth or those looking to beat the heat with a frozen treat.

According to the site, the best ice cream parlor in all of South Carolina is Off Track Ice Cream. This Charleston shop offers up both dairy and non-dairy options that are so tasty you'll keep coming back until you try every flavor — and then try them again! Off Track Ice Cream, which has a 4.6 star rating on Google and more than 1,000 reviews, is located at 6 Beaufrain Street.

Here's what LoveFood had to say about this popular spot:

"Off Track Ice Cream believes ice cream tastes better when the ingredients are simple and natural. All its ice cream starts off with four key ingredients — cream, milk, eggs, and cane sugar — before real foods and clean ingredients are used to create flavors. There's also a great list of vegan ice creams, made with raw cashews, organic coconut cream, sunflower oil, and cane sugar. Flavors include chocolate fudge brownie, blackberry honey, and peppermint chip."
