Over 45 Flavors of Pure Happiness

In the heart of our cozy beach town, Sweet Melissa’s Ice Cream Shop sits on Albee Road just a short stroll from beautiful Nokomis Beach. We’re proud to offer over 45 flavors of ice cream – from classic favorites to creative new combinations – plus creamy sundaes, thick shakes, and even old-fashioned banana splits to satisfy every sweet tooth. After a sunny day by the shore, there’s no better place to cool off and indulge in a scoop (or two) of pure happiness.

From the moment you walk in, you’ll feel the warm, family-friendly atmosphere that makes our shop so special. We treat everyone like family – even the four-legged members! Our outdoor patio is dog-friendly, and we love spoiling your pups with their very own pup cups. Take a seat, soak in the laid-back beach-town vibe, and enjoy your ice cream while ocean breezes drift by. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, we can’t wait to welcome you for a sweet treat and a smile.

Peppermint Chip

Our Peppermint Chip ice cream is a festive, house-made seasonal treat, taking a classic vanilla base and transforming it with a refreshing burst of winter flavor.

This flavor is a cheerful blend of creamy sweetness and crisp peppermint, making it a perfectly refreshing festive choice.
