The Sugar Shack - Ice cream shop in Tybee Island - 301 1st St, USA

We stayed around the corner and visited 1-2 per day. The waffles are great, my husband loved their coffee with two shots of vanilla, he also loved their red velvet cake ice cream, and I loved their sugar cone with chocolate peanut butter overload. Angie was so friendly and she recognized us our second visit and remembered things we had mentioned before…seemed like she knew everyone who came in and everyone loved her!

Beautiful inside offering so many types of candy . Ice cream was not that good. The kids that worked there were unpleasant . The taffy was melted. Practically all of it was melted. They need to leave the air conditioning on over night since all the candy was melting . They also sell knives and a few souvenirs.

Ice cream is very overpriced, even for the beach. Flavor is okay but portions are very small. The decor is super cute and lots of photo ops. We are an ice cream loving family and really like trying new places. We really enjoyed other shops in the area more that were closer to the beach and priced a little more reasonably. Glad we tried it once but probably wouldn't go back.

One of the most eye-catching, cutest ice cream shops I've seen. There is every type of candy you can think of along with multiple ice cream flavors. The outside seating area has the MOST ADORABLE table & chair sets I've ever seen! It was a great stop to cure our sugar teeth 😉

Cute little ice cream and candy store! The outside decor is great and perfect for photo ops. The only downside is the gals serving the ice cream aren’t super friendly. My soon loved the mint chocolate chip and loved sitting at the ice cream table!

Really good ice cream. I got the coconut ice cream and it was amazing. The staff are nice and the place is really clean. They have plenty of candy options along with lots of ice cream options. It gets pretty busy at certain times as it is a popular place though so keep that in mind. I would recommend stopping it was really good.

Stop by if you’re on Tybee looking for great ice cream, endless supply of candy, and family fun atmosphere. Really enjoyed the visit and they also have an affordable golf cart rental for those who really want to sight see and travel on Tybee.

The Sugar Shack is about two blocks away from the AirBnB we are staying at and we saw it our first night on the island. Yesterday was a scorcher and after being on the beach for about an hour, my wife and I decided to run in and grab an ice cream cone. We’d not tried this location before, but we are certainly glad we did. The place was fairly busy with a large line at the counter. There are a few parking spaces for the business in a side lot and on the other side of the building, but other than that, it’s paid parking. We still had time left from our beach parking so that wasn’t really an issue. There is a covered area out front that has small colorful tables with cute chairs in the shape of ice cream cones. Inside the shop, there is a large candy selection and the decor is fun and kind of retro. This reminded me of the long defunct Heidi’s Ice Cream back home in Pompano Beach, FL. This place has a real mom and pop old time beach ice cream shop vibe going on and I loved it. The staff were super busy but polite and they had a special flavor called Key Lime Pie that we both tried. Wow! It really was like a Key Lime pie. The ice cream was smooth and velvety with a creamy texture (it will melt instantly when you emerge into the heat!), but it had the right mixture of tart and sweet that a legit Key Lime Pie should have. There were plentiful amounts of graham cracker crust in the ice cream, too. It was truly a treat! I regret that I had to take a picture of a partially eaten cone when I got back to the car, but it was so good that a photo of the cone was almost an afterthought! Just understand that the cone was far more ample before I made it back to my vehicle!
