The wife and I both had a hankering for a late night sweet treat and Google Maps took us straight to Sweet Shack!
They’ve got a great list of handmade ice cream flavors, but the real twist is the boozy options and specialty floats!
This beach-themed ice cream and Italian ice shop has a fun and breezy atmosphere to it. The service is kind and generous too!
Be sure to stop in whenever you need something to cool you off or calm your nerves. There’s something for all ages from 1 to 99!
We just stopped in and the shop was amazing, it had cute decor and the flavors were delicious with no artificial coloring. The owner Lynn was delightful to talk with and you can tell that she has a passion for making delicious homemade ice cream. We definitely recommend this spot for anyone in Branson.
Real homemade ice cream that burst with flavor!! The atmosphere is so fun. Exceptional service and experience.
We chose a flight of ice cream so that we could taste test 4 different flavors; love this option!! The strawberry 🍓 and pumpkin pie were my must try and they are the 2 I am pickiest about; they were perfect. None of the flavors were overpowering and you could definitely tell it was made from scratch with love ❤️. The chocolate and mint chocolate were also tasty and refreshing and enjoyed by my husband.
If your looking for great ice cream and floats this place is for you! I loved the fun and welcoming environment and the owner is so sweet.

Happy to see new ice cream places popping up on the strip. The interior is decorated in a lively beach atmosphere, which puts you in the mood for fun Ice cream. They have adult options like boozy ice creams as well as floats with alcoholic beverages from Guinness to seltzers. They also have a diverse selection of non alcoholic ice cream as well. You can get any flavor mixed with any drink. Want lemon ice with an iced tea? You can do that. Want coconut ice cream with creme soda? Go for it.
I haven't tried everything here, but it's hard to imagine anything is bad. I do want to review one special flavor. The Mexican Hot Chocolate. This flavor is a dining experience unto itself. When you first taste the ice cream, the first flavor that hits you is the tequila and alcohol (yes this is a boozy option, sorry kids). Then you notice the silky smooth texture. Then the cinnamon comes in and you realize something special is happening. Finally, the spice and honey come in, nice and low. The heat is subtle, so no one is going to be blown out by how spicy it is. As you continue the scoop, the tequila and alcohol die down and you're left with a subtle heat on the tongue and a lovely cinnamon and chocolate adventure. Be brave, step out of your comfort zone, and try this flavor masterpiece.
All in all, this is a winner for Branson. Please try it and support new businesses in Branson. Some people may go for $20 milkshakes, but I say this is the best new ice cream shop in Branson.

We were looking for a frozen treat after a long day and dinner out. We tried the Sweet Shack. Hands down the best ice cream in Branson. Everything is homemade. She does it in small batches. It all tastes so fresh. Love the Italian ice but my husband enjoyed the ice cream. Lynne, the owner, was so fun to talk to. Love the beachy vibe. We will be back for sure. Next time we are doing the floats/boozy floats!

Our daughter had told us how good the ice cream was, so my family went to see for ourselves, we were overwhelmed with not only the freshly made custom ice cream flavors, but also the adult versions. The store is extremely clean and fun atmosphere.
Lynn, the store owner, was absolutely fantastic and a delight to talk to, it had the feeling of family when you walk in.
They were very reasonably priced, we will definitely be making this a regular stop.
