Top Ten Fast Food Restaurants With the Best Ice Cream

BKAllmighty I just made a list about DQ Blizzards. I thought this would be a fitting follow-up. This list compiles the fast food joints that carry the best selection (biggest or best - either works) of ice cream products on their menu.

The Top Ten

1 Dairy Queen Dairy Queen Dairy Queen is a chain of soft serve ice cream and fast-food restaurants owned by International Dairy Queen, Inc., a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway.

Their dipped ice cream is my favorite - trains45

It doesn't get any better than Dairy Queen! It helps that it started out only serving ice cream and other treats to begin with.

I love Mint Ice Cream, so I think mint ice cream is best fast food restaurants.

Best place ever beats out all ice cream YES

2 Burger King Burger King Burger King (BK) is an American global chain of hamburger fast food restaurants. Headquartered in the unincorporated area of Miami-Dade County, Florida, the company was founded in 1953 as InstaBurger King, a Jacksonville, Florida-based restaurant chain. After Insta-Burger King ran into financial difficulties ...read more.

Burger King doesn't sell "ice cream". They do have milk shakes, while overpriced and definitely not large sized, were fairly good tasting. I will not be back there ice cream again.

Dairy Queen is obviously #1, but I gave my vote to BK, because I think their ice cream beats that of any non-DQ fast food places. - PetSounds

I'm very pleased with their milkshakes and sundaes. I didn't think I'd like ANYTHING that much from Burger King (even though my initials are B.K.) but their ice cream-y stuff rocks. - BKAllmighty

3 McDonald's McDonald's McDonald's is an American fast food company, founded in 1940 as a restaurant operated by Richard and Maurice McDonald, in San Bernardino, California, United States. They rechristened their business as a hamburger stand. The first time a McDonald's franchise used the Golden Arches logo was in 1953 at ...read more.

Oreo McFlurrys are my favorite, plain vanilla is good too!

Oreo Mc flurrys rock!

When I was up in Maryland (Coming from Kentucky) I got a M&M McFlurry.

I believe their mcflurrys and their sundaes are super good

Wendy's used to have a lot of different Frosty-based desserts and they all disappeared a few months ago. I don't understand why since they were all amazing. Of course, their chocolate Frosty, alone, is reason enough to go to Wendy's. - BKAllmighty

Green apple slush with nerds

Nerd Slush. Enough said

I went there once during a trip to the U.S. and whatever that thing was that I had was amazing. It was years ago so I honestly forget what it was but I know I loved it. - BKAllmighty

Cherry nerds slush! :))))))))

6 A&W

The root beer alone snatch everyone's heart

I am speaking for the Canadian A&W chain (which is not only a separate company from the U.S. chain, but invented the Great Root Bear, the Papa Burger, and isn't close to being bankrupt like the U.S. one is) which makes amazing root beer floats. I can only assume that the U.S. one is good too, but I wouldn't know. - BKAllmighty

Your right

7 Carl's Jr.

Want a Hostess Ding Dong ice cream sandwich? I know I do. - BKAllmighty

Carl's Jr. vs Hardee's the same

8 Culver's

Culver's has custard and it so good like it literally melts in your mouth it is so gods and they have like flavor of the days for like one dollar for the custard and their ice cream machine is never broken like McDonalds

9 KFC KFC KFC, until 1991 known as Kentucky Fried Chicken, is an American fast food restaurant chain that specializes in fried chicken. Headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, it is the world's second-largest restaurant chain (as measured by sales) after McDonald's, with almost 20,000 locations globally in 123 ...read more.

So creamy! - IceFoxPlayz

Their ice cream tastes like homemade

Chickfila and Dairy Queen

The Contenders

11 In-N-Out

I have never been to this place (Canadian, remember? ) but everyone tells me their stuff is good. So... Ok. - BKAllmighty

12 Braum's

Would probably top this list if it weren't a regional chain.

Soft serve is AMAZING! It's cheap and they give you a lot in a waffle cone. My mom used to take us there to get chocolate vanilla twists in waffle cones instead of lunch. No regrets. Other ice cream is excellent but soft serve is the star. Genuinely upset there isn't one near me anymore, only in OK area!

i like it

13 Arby's Arby's Arby's is the second-largest quick-service fast-food sandwich restaurant chain in America in terms of units with more than 3,300 restaurants system wide and third in terms of revenue. In October 2017, Food & Wine called Arby's "America's second largest sandwich chain (after Subway)".

Their orange & cream milkshake was a whole other level of awesome when I first tried it. Too bad it's only in the summer since I'd buy it in January if I could. - BKAllmighty

#1 shakes

Why is taco bell on here well they serve freezes like the mountain dew baja blast and starburst freeze and snapple freeze and others now I know its not ice cream but that's why its on number 13.

You are right

15 Jollibee

I'm American. Ate here a lot in the Philippines. Best tasting fries I've ever had. And their burgers are way bigger then your going to get at any fast food chain in America.

Good stuff. A must try if you are able too.
