FRIO Creamery

Wow this place was absolutely amazing. They have such unique and fun flavored. I forgot the name of the ice cream I ordered but it was graham cracker with candied chocolate. I also tried one that's caramel with sea salt pretzel and stuff. It was so creamy and flavorful but not too heavy and sweet.

The service was also so nice and welcoming. I also added brownie on top. I would say this is one of the best ice cream in Pittsburgh.

Friendly staff, nice options, I just made the wrong choice on flavor. I made a snap decision and ultimately got popped. Next time I will get a milkshake, they have some really good looking flavors and recipes there.

This is good ice cream, no doubt about it. They have a lot of different options and the classics as well. They have a few daily options that change depending on the season. And vegan options too! Vegan options that actually sound delicious. I decided to try the peanut butter fudge milkshake.

Wow, the shake was very thick! Nearly too thick. But, the flavor was great. The base was a rich chocolate. It seemed high quality. There are streaks of peanut butter throughout the ice cream. Even little bits of peanuts in the ice cream, but I wasn't a fan of this. Not much liquid fudge. It was topped with a generous amount of whipped cream.

I would have enjoyed it more if the base was peanut butter, but it was still really good. The portion size was great. Although, it is pretty costly. I'm talking almost $10 for a milkshake.

All in all, it's a great place to get a treat. Not the most cost effective, but the quality is great, and they have many diverse and delicious options to choose from. I would recommend trying them out.

The staff working there are incredibly sweet. This is an awesome place to stop by when you're in the area. Very generous scoops and a great array of flavors! There's a little outdoor seating for evenings after a dinner/event. However, I will say the flavor I got wasn't incredibly robust if you're looking for a rich, creamy coffee flavor.

My family and I loved the takeout ice cream we ordered. I ordered online and it was ready really quickly. We were shocked that it was ready once we got there after about ten minutes.

Everyone loved their ice cream choices. My mom loved her Death by Chocolate. It was all so creamy and delicious. I'm obsessed with cinnamon and I loved my Grilled Stickies. My goddaughter is super picky and loved her BitterSweet Mint. My cousin loved the banana flavor in his monkey business ice cream. My husband loved all things peanut butter in his Nutty Bon Bon. My godson loved all the cookie pieces and peanut butter in his Monster Dough.

So happy we finally got to try it. So good! Check them out.

Frío was really yummy! I got the vegan peanut butter Oreo ice cream and while the flavors were delicious the consistency was a little gummy. The regular ice cream was tasty and I really liked that the base of the coffee ice cream was actual coffee flavored. The prices were pretty fair for ice cream and the location is really convenient. The staff were friendly, let us try samples, and there were three tables outside as seating. I would go back and try other vegan flavors for sure. Also, there hours are great as they're open until 10 some nights.

I loved the Penn State creamery ice cream that I had here -- the grilled stickies ice cream was amazing alongside the banana pb chocolate (I think called Monkey Business). This was my first time here and I would return again to try new flavors. There were many that sounded delicious!

Frio is definitely my favorite place in Pittsburgh that I've been for ice cream. I may be biased as a Penn State alum, but they carry Penn State creamery ice cream and you just can't beat that. Even though I'm vegan now and can't enjoy the creamery ice cream I love that they carry it and you can get it in Pittsburgh! I also love Frio because they have vegan ice cream and it's so good! Every time I've seen at least 3 vegan flavors. I love the vegan pistachio and the vegan blueberry lavender flavors.

Frio is a few blocks from my house and with the recent summer heat I'm finding myself stopping there often. While I'm not vegan, I prefer vegan ice cream when it's an option and their flavors are amazing! I've had red velvet, dulce de leche, and chocolate cookies and cream (or a similar name) and would eat all three again, happily.

My "complaints" are no big deal really. I'd love for them to have regular sugar cones - cake cones are not my fav and waffle cones are a bit too much for me. I'd also love for them to have kid sizes - I *can* eat a lot, but try to keep my ice cream servings little (so I can have it more often...haha). Would also love for them to be open longer hours, but understand from a business perspective that may not make sense.

Pittsburgh has some great vegan ice cream and Lawrenceville is - happily - pretty saturated. And Frio is one of my favs. One of these days I have to try a vegan shake!

Pistachio Baklava is my favorite flavor here. Cute ice cream place on butler street. They have good choice of flavors. You'll find some good vegan options as well! They serve it on home wade waffles .
They also do great milkshakes. I got the death by chocolate milkshake.
The servers are really very friendly and accommodating.
Parking on butler is always tough to find but that should never stop you from trying out icecreams!
I recommend!
