It\u2019s been an, umm, interesting five months since the coronavirus pandemic struck, and I think we\u2019re all feeling a little fatigued from the whole experience. Which means now is the perfect time to TREAT YOURSELF<\/a>. We\u2019ve compiled a list of our favorite ice cream shops to satisfy your sweet tooth cravings while keeping you cool in this summer heat.<\/span>\n

Chocolate Shoppe<\/a><\/h3>\n

Atwood, Fordem, Midvale, and State Street, plus Fitchburg and Middleton<\/em><\/p>\n

With over 75 ice cream flavors, including several dairy-free options (and even a caffeinated one), Chocolate Shoppe is a popular go-to for ice cream lovers. Each of its Madison locations are currently open for takeout, and you can order either online<\/a> or in person. There will also be a Chocolate Shoppe food truck at the Alliant Energy Center each Friday through October<\/a>.<\/span>\n

Atwood Avenue, Monroe Street and Schroeder Road<\/em><\/p>\n

Michael Dix sold his only possession<\/a>, a 1982 Toyota Supra, to open the first Michael\u2019s Frozen Custard, and the restaurant has since become a Madison staple. The Monroe Street location is currently open for takeout only, while the Atwood and Schroeder stores each have a drive-thru option. You can also make a full meal out of it: Michael\u2019s also sells burgers, hot dogs and more.<\/span>\n

\"Atwood

The Atwood Scoop<\/a><\/h3>\n

Atwood Avenue<\/em><\/p>\n

Late last year, the Atwood Scoop had an interesting introduction<\/a> to the Madison community to say the least. (Anyone interested in starting an Ice Cream Wars<\/a> podcast?) But the new shop is now open and ready to serve eager customers \u2014 by takeout only, of course; the building is tiny.<\/span>\n

\"Calliope

Calliope Ice Cream<\/a><\/h3>\n

Garver Feed Mill<\/em><\/p>\n

With funky flavors like Hearty Breakfast (consisting of french toast, bacon, and whiskey undertones) and Brandy Old Fashioned, Calliope is the perfect ice cream shop to spice up your summer afternoon. Tucked into the Ian\u2019s Pizza location at Garver, Calliope is currently open for takeout \u2014 but the outdoor seating there is open for you to sit back and enjoy a cold treat.<\/span>\n

\"Paradise

Paradise Island Ice Cream<\/a><\/h3>\n

Monona Drive<\/em><\/p>\n

Paradise Island serves a mix of ice cream and paletas, making it an awesome spot for any of your cravings, including those of the lactose intolerant kind. (Our deepest condolences if you can\u2019t do lactose.) Paradise Island\u2019s flavors come in vibrant colors, so be prepared for a color explosion.<\/span>\n

\"Monona

Monona Bait & Ice Cream Shop<\/a><\/h3>\n

Winnequah Road<\/em><\/p>\n

Monona Bait & Ice Cream serves delicious homemade food along with ice cream, so it\u2019s got your back for the entire afternoon or evening. They also sell live bait, so you can eat your ice cream while fishing if that\u2019s something you\u2019re into. And it\u2019s funky yet homey vibe is a must-stop for your ice cream bucket list.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
