Chaps Ice Cream is an old-fashioned ice cream parlor in Charlottesville, Virginia with all of the charm and fun of yesteryear! All of our ice cream is made onsite and we can create custom flavors to fit any request or desire with a variety of available ingredients. Get your Chaps Ice Cream in the store (which has a great, classic 50s ice cream parlor feel) or call ahead to take any quantity home! Not only do we make our own homemade ice cream and ice cream cakes, but we make our own doughnuts too (family recipes that have been around for over 75 years!) Our fun-loving crew values our customers and takes pride in their work and creating a cozy, delightful experience. Looking for more than just a sweet treat? Chaps serves up some of the best bites around including burgers, sandwiches, shakes and coffee! Need to take your event or special occasion to the next level?
