Polar Bear Ice Cream & Coffee - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great ice cream. Highly recommend it.

This place makes the best milkshakes I have ever had. Nice little shop and the folks behind the counter are very nice people. Every time we come home to Big Canoe we make it a point to come here.

I’ve been wanting to hit up this ice cream parlor for some time and so glad I finally did! Its better than brusters! I was expecting more options regarding ice cream flavors, but still was able to find flavors that were accommodating none the less!

Stop what you are doing now and drive 1,000 miles for their Cherry Amazing ice cream and a Cafe auLait.

We stopped here with our kiddos on our first day of living in BC! Everyone at the store was so kind, which meant a lot to us on such a big & happy (but anxious) day! Loved the ambiance. The ice cream was delicious! I'm sure we will be here almost every weekend! :)

This is a fantastic place to stop for some delicious ice cream on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Some of the best flavored and quality ice cream around. It's a must stop and try.

We recommend this beautiful and nostalgic ice cream shop to ALL our friends, without reservation. It is simply the best place for ice cream, and coffee. We love both the employees and the owners.

Such a great choice of ice creams and staff always friendly

Fantastic atmosphere, and the owner is an absolute hoot and lovable guy. Would come back any time!

Great ice cream and amazing service! We were greeted with a smile and were served quickly. Best place for ice cream in Big Canoe! :)

Friendly service, Great coffee.

Amazing ice cream with homemade waffle cones. The decor in the shoppe was really interesting and neat. Definitely will be going back. And the prices are reasonable! The ladies Crystal and Angie are amazing as well!

This was a cute little place! The ice cream was delicious. The amount of ice cream you actually get for the price was disappointing. No bathroom either!

This is what makes Big Canoe amazing! An incredible spot for a great snack owned by a fabulous couple... The affogato is out of this world! Express and ice cream? Oh yeah!

Great local ice cream shop! The toasted coconut ice cream and house-made waffle cones are the best I’ve ever had! The owner was incredibly kind and welcoming, too! Be sure to check them out when in Big Canoe!

One of the best ice creams I’ve ever had! I got the bear claw and the almond coconut! Both amazing! The hot dog combo was worthy! I’ll return for sure!

Delicious icecream and great service!

Excellent ice cream place in rural north Georgia, next to the Big Canoe community. Very friendly staff. The have a $10 hotdog combo - quarter pound hot dog, drink, bag of chips, and an ice cream cone. Best deal for 30 miles in any direction.

Extremely good ice cream and super nice service!

Delicious small batch ice cream in creative flavors and fantastic coffee! Friendly and fun!

Super Auswahl an Eiscreme. Tolles nostalgisches Café! Gerne wieder!

Came in for Mother's Day with my family. Wonderful ice cream flavors!!! Owner and staff are the absolute sweetest. The music and vibes are unforgettable. Will be back!!!

Local owned and operated, I love supporting local business

Our family had the jumbo hot dog, with chips, a drink, and an ice cream $9.99 ! Wife had an amazing ice latte. Very neglectic atmosphere. Extremely polite staff! Highly recommended!

I really liked the ice cream and the service was excellent.

Wonderful local place with great ice cream, milkshakes, latte and hot dogs. Great service and old time feel and decorations.

Amazing ice cream.. amazing people

I'm very much enjoying the new management they are very professional keep their ice cream stocked and have a lot of different options plus I love the hot dog meal! The new owners are the best they really made a big difference in this store! The staff is extremely friendly and professional! Thank you

Awesome cafe. The pumpkin spice latte was delicious. I am definitely going back!

Super friendly, good ice cream!

Always a good refreshing stop while riding my motorcycle up in the mountains.

Great food and good job keep it up

I've got to say I'm not an ice cream guy or a big sweets fan either ... but it was Sunday it was my birthday and I was like ok I want something sweet ... I live right there so I went in and ordered a large waffle cone with 3 different scoops .... best ice cream sweet craving I have ever had .. un believable.. it was so good so creamy so much stuff inside if you opt for those flavors... the waffle cone itself was amazing... I even got a pumpkin struesel pecan muffin was amazing also .. I thought about going back for another 3 scoops!!! Wicked awesome stuff !!! Thank you!!

We only had some latés, and an apple turnover. Everything was so good. The owner(?) was adorable, and extremely sweet. This place alone was so cute. I HIGHLY recommend.

This place us AWESOME! Highly recommend for anyone in the Big Canoe area. Fun for the whole family!!! Great ice cream and nostalgia. You can tell that they take pride in what they do! Wish we didn't live 500 miles way!!!

New owners are wonderful, as excellent as the cherry oblivion flavor! So good!

Great flavor selection and the owner was super friendly and helpful.

Good service. Good ice cream. Good hot dogs. Nice atmosphere.

Awesome place right outside the gates of Big Canoe! Love their $9.99 lunch special which includes a hot dog, chips, soda and two scoops of their amazing ice cream!

Friendly staff and a great lunch bargain! Definitely recommend.

Adorable ice cream shop with super friendly staff. Try the affogato!

Awesome little shop; I love the decorations, and they accommodated my sister’s gluten allergy really well! Todd and Mike are really running a nice place!

Best dairy free ice cream I’ve ever had!

Great little ice cream shop that has great hotdogs as well.

Can’t wait to come back and try all the flavors!

Great place for a variety of ice creams and shakes. Check out the menu.

Nice little ice cream shop, very friendly owner. Home made waffle cones and super-tasty ice cream. We'll be back next time we're in the area

Excellent ice cream & hot dog combo. Coffee service starts soon!

Great hospitality and atmosphere, along with ice cream and frozen icees selection. Will return again.

Oh my goodness that cheesecake was better than ANY I have had

Drove from Jasper to check this out and it was closed. Please update your Google My Business listing if you’re not going to be open

We LOVE this Ice Cream Shop (Parlor)!! It’s like going back in time and with the Juke Box playing Sinatra - I was in heaven! Can’t wait to see y’all again this October for pumpkin farm fun times with ice cream treats after!!!

Amazing ice cream and a really cute store! I really liked the Red Velvet ice cream and Lemon Ice. I can't wait to come again.

Cute little ice cream shop. Ice cream was good, people friendly. Girl even came out side and took our picture! Not badly price. Would go back for sure.

Nice ice cream shop, good selection of cones.

Very friendly lady at the front desk helped us taste some of the flavors. Got the waffle cup and butter pecan. Delicious combination!!

This is great pit stop while driving from Alpharetta towards BJ Reece's or Hillcrest Farms etc. They have a variety of ice creams and coffee. Very very friendly staff. Very clean and well maintained. Will definitely visit again!!

Great ice cream, friendly staff, lots of different flavors to choose from. Great atmosphere.

The ambience of this local ice cream palor is reminiscent of something straight out of Mayberry and the ice cream was delicious. The Bear Claw ice cream was a rich mixture of decadant chocolate, smooth caramel and dark chocolate covered cashews. The Mexican Hot Chocolate ice cream was sweet with a bit of spice from cinnamon and a kick from the dash of cayenne. 10/10 would recommend.

Their modest ice cream selection was ok but way over priced. We bought two cones of no notable size and spent $10. They call themselves a coffee shop yet they only had a Walmart quality keurig maker and seemed to think their pods were worth over $3 each. We continued on to McDonald's for our coffee fix.

Awesome ice cream, cool atmosphere. Lee is super friendly and helpful too.

Staff is very friendly atmosphere is welcoming and the ice cream is wonderful.

Great service, good selection. There is a nice "home town" feel to the establishment.

Love this place! If they're open, you have to give it a try. My group loved the ice cream flavors they chose. I can't resist a good malted milkshake and her recommendation couldn't have been better. Best milkshake I've had in 20 years!

It was wonderful and I was so happy to see it open. The chocolate malted milk shake she made for my.husband he loved. I had a small cup of chocolate coffe sensation? Different name but it was wonderful. The gal was delightful. Lovely experience🤗

Great awesome place with an incredibly sweet manager. The kids would love all the cool things inside.

Very pricey and itsy-bitsy scoops. We won't be back.

The ice cream was fine. Service was fine. Charging for “the cup” to have a short drink of water is unbelievably chintzy. To spend over $20.00 on ice cream and not have a complimentary water fountain etc is really wrong in my opinion.ii guess if I had my own cup the water would have been free but they would charge for the labor.

A perfect little place for ice cream while on vacation!

This is the place to be!! Raspberry Truffle ice cream, yum yum! From the raspberry swirl to the not too tiny chocolate truffles and the chocolate rim on the waffle cone, oh my goodness. The cones are kept in the ice cream freezer so they are the best. A quaint old fashion ice cream shop that brings back the greatest ice cream memories from my youth. Absolutely worth the trip!!!

Looking for a place to relax? Go here!

Becca is truly an incredible person. The ice cream and coffee is great, too!

Great variety of flavors! If you want to try these awesome selections you'll have to plan for it because they're only open on the weekend!

Love this place and my kids do too! The best parts are 1. The free jute box, 2. Hand made waffle cones made right there! They also have hot drinks here as well.

The ice cream is delicious! The cones are kinda small for the big scoops you get

Great lil country ice cream parlor in the foothills of the smokies!

Drove over on vacation and they are closed on Wednesday. Need to fix their hours.

I had the ice cream called garbage can and it was delicious.

Stopped by here on my way home and was very pleased with their selection of classic flavors and tempting new combos. The service was patient, thoughtful and friendly. I ended up with a chocolate raspberry truffle cone that was mind blowing!

Good ice cream enjoyed the time there just hanging out.

Showed up with entire family at 730 on a Sunday. Google says open till 8 closed as 7

This place is great, through my daughter's surprise party here :)

It's our family's favorite ice cream place! Great flavors and friendly staff.

Yum! Delicious ice cream! Great service and a sweet little establishment. How lucky can one get?

Great little ice cream shop. Friendly lady working there and nice variety of flavors to choose from

Great place with a friendly staff. There is a vast assortment of flavors and the ice cream is delicious.

Great ice cream, great decor and great service!

The ice cream here is great and the gals running the place are sweet and gave us great, cheerful service.

Tried to go tonight. Google maps said open until 8pm. Showed up at 6:18 and they were closed.

Small Ice Cream & Coffee shop that we ran into on the way back to our lake house we rented. This shop was very vintage and the pricing was amazing. We went on a Tuesday so they had a special running that cost us little to nothing for Ice Cream & Soda. I would go back to this place for sure.

My two year old loves this place. The decor is cute and very kid approved. The ice cream is some of the best I've had. The prices compare to other ice cream places,.like Brusters. They were also very allergen friendly for my son!

The store is now under new management and is once again serving hot coffee and espresso drinks! Fun atmosphere and great 50's music! It is definitely worth visiting!

The coffee ice cream is a favorite

Customer service, very friendly. ice cream very good

This store no longer sells coffee.

Ice cream is very good, especially the strawberry. However, after several bad service experiences I will not be visiting this store again. Outright hostile attitude of one of the employees turned us off for good. Apparently, expecting to be able to buy ice cream 30 minutes before closing is not appreciated.
