Ice Cream emoji 13 items
Having lived in Richmond my entire life, I've spent many years exploring the various dessert places in the greater RVA area. There are so many to choose from, but I’ve narrowed it down to my absolute favorites, so I wanted to go ahead and make a list...

Something I LOVE about Shyndigz is that they have monthly cycles of different specialty flavors, so you can check their website to see what special flavor they're offering each day! I was so bummed when they moved to a location ever so slightly away ...

All I have to say is: look at the menu. There are SOOO many options, I couldn't POSSIBLY discuss them all here, haha. I've been here several times with friends and rate is a 10/10

Coco and Hazel offers proper meals, but you simply MUST try one of their milkshakes for dessert! I always go for the Chocolate Blackout but can never finish it, hahah.

I LOVE Sugar Shack and cannot recommend it enough!! I personally always go with either the oreo donuts or the m&m ones, but they have an abundance of options if something else calls your name instead!

They offer an ABUNDANCE of crepes, including for breakfast, and as difficult it is to choose a favorite, I'd have to go with the nutella one!

I swear this is like Charlie in the Chocolate Factory. You will be overwhelmed (in the best way) with all of the chocolate surrounding you!

Cheesecake slices, cookies, cake slices, dessert cups, cake pops, and cinnamon rolls… what else could you ask for?! I personally recommend the oreo dessert cup or chocolate cake pop ;)

The Melting Pot comes with an appetizer, main meal, but, the best part (in my opinion) is their fondue dessert! I personaly get the ying and yang chocolate fondue, and it comes with a limitless amount of sweets to use to dip into the chocolate

Bev's is an incredible homemade ice cream place here in RVA! They offer the standard flavors as well as weekly/biweekly special flavors :) I personally recommend the chocolate chip cookie dough
