Read moreIf you’re anywhere near Orange Beach, do not miss Sweet Cone Alabama! This place is an absolute gem. The moment you walk in, you’re hit with that sweet, nostalgic smell of homemade waffle cones and it only gets better from there.
The ice cream selection is fantastic, with both classic favorites and unique seasonal flavors that are always on point. Everything is super creamy, rich, and clearly made with quality ingredients. I had the butter pecan in a freshly made waffle cone, and it might just be the best I’ve ever had. And if you’re into milkshakes or sundaes, they’ve got you covered there too.
The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, southern hospitality at its finest. They’re patient with kids, generous with samples, and genuinely seem happy to be there.
Whether you’re cooling off from the beach or just need a sweet treat, Sweet Cone Alabama is the perfect stop....

He said it’s not his responsibility to tell him, and anyone would know that’s the price!!. I said that is horrible customer service and he said I was a horrible guardian for letting my son shop alone. We had just finished our $50 ice cream from them and let him shop quick when we went to the car since there was a bit of a line. I would never return and would advise others that unless they want overpriced items and poor customer service. Never been more disappointed after what was supposed to be a fun...
