5 Best Ice Cream Shops in Delhi (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

Thorne Savarin
By Thorne Savarin, Culinary Explorer · ✓ Data verified July 2026 · 8 min read

On a hot evening, the ice cream shops in Delhi all start to look the same from the outside, but the review numbers behind them are not close at all. These have logged over 28,000 reviews between them, and one name alone accounts for more than 21,000 of that, nearly ten times the count of the next closest shop. That kind of gap usually means one thing: everyone in the city already has an opinion about it.

Short answer: Naturals Ice Cream in Connaught Place dominates with 4.6 stars across 21,221 reviews, by far the deepest review base of any shop on this page, known for fruit-based flavors like Tender Coconut and Mango Malai. Cremeborne Ice Creams & Desserts is the pick for something different, built around its Black Charcoal Ice Cream and dessert-shake combinations. A single scoop across these shops typically runs under 200 rupees, based on reviewer-reported spend.

Naturals Ice Cream

4.621,221 Google reviews

Naturals Ice Cream is a Connaught Place outlet of the national chain built around ice cream made from just three ingredients: fruit, milk, and sugar. The shop stays open until 1am, and its menu leans on fresh, seasonal fruit flavors, from tender coconut to mango malai, rather than novelty or candy-based options.

What people praise

  • Fruit flavors like tender coconut and mango malai praised as genuinely fresh, not artificial
  • Late-night hours make it a reliable option for a post-midnight craving
  • Consistent quality across visits, according to long-time customers

Worth knowing

  • Some reviewers found the price steep relative to scoop size
  • A few flavors are sometimes unavailable depending on the day

  • Cozy, photo-friendly ambiance reviewers mention often
  • Reasonable prices for the portion and variety offered

Worth knowing

  • A few reviewers found the flavor selection unremarkable on a repeat visit

Our take: It ranks third here on a 4.2 rating, the trade-off of running as a large multi-branch chain. The legacy flavors still earn real loyalty, but consistency complaints are common enough to note.

How we score these ice cream shops

Rating is the live Google average. Review volume shows how many customers have actually rated the shop, weighed against the others on this page. Confidence blends the rating with that volume, so a strong score built on over 20,000 reviews carries far more weight than the same score on a few hundred. Recency tracks how recently people are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change any of these numbers.

How much does ice cream cost in Delhi? (2026)

Pricing across these shops runs low compared to Western ice cream parlors, with reviewer-reported spend showing most single items priced well under a few hundred rupees. Dessert combinations involving shakes or sundaes cost more than a plain scoop.

JobTypical price
Single ice cream coneRs 100 - Rs 130
Double scoopRs 160 - Rs 200
Faluda or dessert sundaeRs 130 - Rs 180

Ranges compiled July 2026 from customer-reported prices in Google reviews for the shops on this page.

Serving all of Delhi

These shops span central Connaught Place out to Paschim Vihar, Rohini, and Janakpuri, so a search for ice cream shops near me will surface a different pick depending on which part of Delhi you’re in.

What to ask before you order

  • Which flavors are made fresh in-store versus stocked?
  • Do prices vary between dine-in and takeaway or delivery orders?
  • What are today’s seasonal or limited flavors?
  • Is the shop consistent across its other branches, if it’s part of a chain?
  • How late is the shop open tonight?
  • Do you offer any sugar-free or lower-sugar options?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner (badge and top placement), but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How did you choose these ice cream shops?

We pulled real Google Business Profile data for ice cream shops in Delhi and ranked them on a mix of rating, review volume, and how recently people are still reviewing them.

Which Delhi ice cream shop has the most reviews?

Naturals Ice Cream in Connaught Place, with over 21,000 Google reviews, far ahead of any other shop on this page.

Is Giani’s the oldest ice cream brand in Delhi?

Yes, based on its own history, Giani’s traces back to 1956, making it the longest-running name on this list.

How often is this updated?

This page was last verified in July 2026 against live Google ratings and review counts.

The bottom line

Naturals Ice Cream is the safe default, backed by a review count no other shop on this page comes close to matching. If you want something more unusual than a classic scoop, Cremeborne’s charcoal ice cream and dessert shakes are worth the detour.
