From the giant windows on Main Street, Kilwins draws you in with a view of everything that makes the world a sweet, chocolate-filled place.

Once you make it past their amazing fudge and chocolates (try not to drool) you’ll find lots of ice cream flavors in serious need of sampling. We think three scoops is a good starting point.

Sweet CeCe’s

Frozen yogurt by the pound? Topping choices galore? At Sweet CeCe’s you can get as creative as you want with your concoctions.

The only real challenge is figuring out just how many toppings your froyo can hold?

We know, we know… it’s not technically an ice cream, but trust us on this one. Whit’s makes their custard fresh daily and they always have the classics like chocolate and vanilla.

Die-hard custard lovers hold out for the exclusive flavor of the week. Your sweet tooth thanks you.

King’s Bowl is not your average bowling alley, and they definitely don’t serve your average ice cream. Just like they’ve stepped up the bowling experience, they take ice cream beyond heavenly.

Prepare to be wowed by the deliciousness, not to mention eye candy points make it worthy of an Instagram post.

Classic. Nostalgic. It’s Baskin Robbins! Forever famous for their 31 flavors. They’re in downtown Franklin, so grab a cone or a milkshake to go and take a stroll down historic Main Street.
