The Revolution Ice Cream Co.

Oh so happy to have finally made it to revolution. The ice cream is beyond fabulous. The service amazing. Atmosphere reminds me of eclectic coffee shop — someplace you can sit, relax, and enjoy your ice cream. They have board games for the kids and comfortable seating. Their ice cream is the best I’ve had in years. Go check it out. Tucked away in a strip mall in busy Brandon. Plenty of parking.

Revolution ice cream missed the mark in the execution of a great idea.
Walking into this icecream shop you understand immediately that the owners had an idea of an eclectic trendy hipster icecream joint. However they instead have dirty uncomfortable seating that gives you the feeling you are buying icecream at a flea market. I almost turned around and walked out but with too many guests in tow I didn’t want to disappoint anyone.
The staff is very friendly which is what earned them an extra star. They will let you sample as many flavors as you would like before committing to a flavor. The problem was, nothing really impressed me at all. The chocolate Habenero is very spicy! I was expecting a subtle spice like you would find in a jalapeño margarita but it was, «hurry I need a drink» spicy. Many of the flavors sounded good on paper but were not good at all. My husband and I settled on 2 scoops. The chocolate shock was a bit freezer burnt and not very chocolaty, they must have accidentally left out the shock part that day. The Euro trash, nutella flavored icecream was the best flavor (this coming from a chocolate fan) but not good enough to make me feel it was worth the calories (seeing as how it was not chocolate). None of the flavors were very creamy and the Waffle cones were not made fresh so we didn’t bother with them. I think we must have come on a bad day, or at the bottom of the barrels. I suggest getting a sundae, maybe it will be better covered in toppings.

This place is very charming and incredibly friendly. I’ve been here a few times and I love the fresh variety they offer. So far my favorite is the Euro Trash mix. They offer local art work for sale, local honey in two sizes. They have bottled water, soda and tea. Eclectic seating inside and board games are there for use as well. I will return.

So delicious! Super creamy and no cloying sweet. All their flavors are original like the Chardonnay ice cream with brownie pieces or their grey tea ice cream. They have the best homemade vanilla ice cream in Tampa bay. The location is in a small street mall so you could miss them. They give free samples and are super friendly.

I took my German mother in law here since she loves ice cream and was in the area. I loved the fact they have a euro trash flavor! She probably didn’t think it was as funny as i did when I was ordering my euro trash with fudge. But I got a kick of it and she knows I’m a bit demented. Super cute festive place with weird chairs, different artwork for sale, lights, kids playing area, family board games and of course ice cream. I tried a few samples of their flavors and didn’t see any rum ice cream on this visit. :(
But the hazelnut & Biscoff ice cream was a hit. really enjoyed the flavor and will try the place again.

One of my all-​time favorite places. Lots of yummy, interesting flavor combinations. On this visit, I got a scoop of «The Seaward» which consists of salted caramel, coffee, cinnamon and cardamom and I topped it with a salted caramel drizzle. So. Good. The vibe is awesome, lots of funky local art and toys (did I mention hula hoops?!). Great place to take the kids and relax. Can’t wait to go back for my next treat!

Ice cream of my dreams.
Indeed, a revolution
of frozen sweet milk.
I was just looking out for a good place for dessert after eating the best burger in Tampa Bay (Stein and Vine if you’re wondering), and this little place pops up. I’m like, «Okay, sounds good.» And we’re driving down the road, and we pass it. It’s tucked in this little sad strip mall (like many things in Brandon) between like multiple money laundering places, and you’re start wondering to yourself, «Really Unilocal.Really?!» Don’t be alarmed! This weird little cherry garcia ben and jerry’s wannabe place is the REAL DEAL. The ice cream here is absolutely phenomenal. AND they’re good people doing good local business. Hard to beat.
My only complaint: there needs to be a better deal for big sizes… I’m so tired of paying upwards of $ 15 for a quart of ice cream in Florida. Maybe if they like piled the ice cream on top without a lid I’d feel more like they were giving me a deal, instead of swindling me for their addictive frozen milk product.
Careful of the spicy ice cream, it really has a painful kick.

Revolution ice cream company is anything but vanilla (sorry, had to)! I think I will contribute my weight gain to living near this place for 6 months.
It’s in a strip mall so you could pass it up very easily. Inside there is art all over the walls from local artists and a mish mash of furniture. It’s not the stark and sterile looking ice cream place so grab a spoon and get down with one or six flavors. They serve by the scoop and also in a half dozen styrofoam egg carton so you can try 6 different flavors. They have seasonal flavors to choose from and rotate the others regularly. Some of my favorites have been the brownie batter, rumchata, mint want cookies (mint chocolate chip and cookie dough), blueberry cobbler, peanut butter cheesecake, etc. They even use Girl Scout cookies when they are in season! Hello Samoas!!!
This place is heaven on earth!

Tasty indie ice cream concoctions in the Brandon. Some of them are sweet for me, but they do have a couple voluptuous chocolate flavs. Def worth a visit. Exotic mixtures and fun toppings. They had carnie themed flavs recently in hinor of the Showman’s Association which is in the area.

Since I moved to the Tampa area 4 years ago, I have been looking for an ice cream place that had more pizzazz than the usual ice cream spots. Not that there’s anything wrong with the ol’ classics, but sometimes you just want to be blown away by a unique flavor. Some of the BEST ice cream I’ve ever eaten were the weirdest flavors (basil vanilla and chocolate garlic are too examples).
Ambiance: cool vibe, variety of seating options, fairly big space for an ice cream shop
Food: Delicious ice cream, flavor was exactly as described, good texture, and a lot of options for add-​ons and such. And I loved the flavor options. Caution — chocolate habanero is definitely spicy!
Value: It seems pricy, but I ordered one scoop, and their scoops are not tiny. I’ve been to some ice cream shops that one scoop was only slightly bigger than a golf ball. I think the value is comparable to other specialty ice cream shops.
I would 100% come back here again! Ice cream is the perfect dessert because even if you are full, there is always room for ice cream.

Goodness gracious. I was not expecting this. I thought this was like a family owned Stone cold creamery. No. It was better. Much. Better.
They definitely don’t have your typical chocolate and vanilla. They have their own unique spin on flavors with their homemade ice cream and it will blow your mind. Especially their captain crunch porterhouse ice cream. Woah. And I love that they had toppings that they put on but they don’t overwhelm their ice cream, they put just a little bit enough to change the taste but not overpower it. (So If you are typing love her you may want to ask for extras) You definitely should try this place. And you can get free samples to decide what you like.

I have been wanting to visit Revolution Ice Cream for well over a year now. I don’t get out to Brandon too often, but it finally happened last month. This like ice cream shop is pretty tricky to find. It is tucked in to the back corner of a plaza. We were trying to use the Unilocal directions map to get here and we had to do three revolutions (see what I did there?) to find the place. The map in the app was taking us to the wrong spot.
The environment is super fun with plenty to look at. You kind of feel like you just walked in to the coolest tree house ever. It is decorated with pop and fan art that is for sale. There are different types of comfy seats. There are board games. It would be a cool place to hang out at with friends.
We were a little overwhelmed by the menu. It’s kind of hard to see what all is up there and what is in each ice cream with the way it is done. I actually thought one or two of the pictures was a piece of art or something until someone walked in and ordered that ice cream. The ice creams are very unique. The ones that I originally thought I would love, I didn’t. Luckily, they are open to giving out samples. Porky’s Delight was overly sweet in my opinion.
The flavor we both ended up loving and ordering was Eurotrash. Eurotrash is Nutella ice cream with biscoff cookie crumbles mixed in. So delicious. I actually ordered half a scoop of Eurotrash and half a scoop of Matt’s Fatty Rolls — Cinnamon roll ice cream complete with icing and cinnamon sugar sprinkle. It made for a delicious combination.
The ice cream was definitely good (at least certain flavors) and very unique. We will return again when we are in Brandon.

Interesting decorations and furniture for interior set up. I would said this is a people hang out place. I saw people play with their iPad or smart phone there. However, it did not give me a feeling of great atmosphere.
They do have two choices of adult only ice cream. I mean not in the film X rated movie. If you think about that is all you… haha. The adult only is alcohol content ice cream. You need to show the ID before you order. My ID is the grey hair :). I have ordered the pumpkin spice rumchata. The alcohol is actually from the rum. I would said it is tasty.
The price is a bit in the high side. If I come back, I would try the porky delight and some of the menu items. They located approximately 2.7 miles from the exit of the I-​75 and SR 60. Easy to find.

Been to the shop and also the food truck at Flicks and Food Trucks. I wasn’t too impressed either time but I do like that they are creative with the flavors. I’ve had the blueberry muffin ice cream. The flavor was there but it didn’t have the texture that I seek in ice cream. It lacked in creaminess. I’ve also had the Nutter Fudger from the food truck. It had started to melt before they even handed it to me. I had to eat it very quickly before it turned into ice cream soup. I think the freezers may have had a problem in the excessive heat.
As far as service… they were very busy at the food truck rally and only one person scooping the ice cream while someone else was taking orders. They ended up giving my ice cream to someone else so I had to wait even longer. And just a side note to the owner’s son at the shop: Wear a belt with your shorts if they don’t fit. We don’t need to see your underwear.
The décor is… eclectic. Sorta thrift shop, sorta artsy. I’m not sure of the look they’re going for. But keep it funky… seems to be working well.

Um, yes, hell yes! Great little eclectic spot right on 60.
I tried Porky’s Delight because, well, I like bacon and I like ice cream. So, why not? It was interestingly good.
I also tried the Eurotrash which was quite tasty, too.
However, the winner was one of the specials; white chocolate and macadamia nuts and some other fantasticness that I cannot remember. Oh. My. Goodness. So good. I hope it moves from the «specials» to the «all the time»!
Speedy friendly service to boot.

Five stars because their newest flavor is Netflix and Chill (kettle corn and butterfinger). See what they did there…

My girlfriend Elizabeth’s Mom and brother told us about this place as soon as we got to Tampa on our last visit. It sounded right up my alley, so I was looking forward to trying it.
When we came in, the first thing I noticed was that the décor was that of a hipster coffee shop. There was art for sale on the walls, and lots of hipster looking people on couches. I’m not a huge fan of that culture to be honest. However, seeing hipsters somewhere is usually a good sign. They seem to have good taste when it comes to food!
I tried every single flavor until I could tell that I was making the worker uncomfortable. (I probably tried 10 different flavors.) I settled on chocolate habanero and peanut butter in a waffle cone bowl. * I figured that this would be a good combo, and my god… it was probably the best ice cream I’ve ever had. The chocolate habanero, which I really only got because it sounded interesting, was actually pretty awesome. The peanut butter flavored ice cream will probably stick with me as a life long memory.
*A little background on my decision to try this flavor. So, I have this rule that if something sounds like a really weird combination of things, it’s probably good. I mean, you can’t exactly combine to random things if people didn’t LOVE the end result. They would have to take it off the menu. I’ve found this to be an excellent rule of thumb for trying new things.

Dang! This might be my new favorite ice cream spot. Too bad it’s 4 hours away :(.
My mom and brother have been raving about this place for a while, so I knew we had to try it on my next visit up to Brandon/​Valrico. My mom told me about all of the crazy eclectic flavors on the menu. All of them sounded right up my alley. The Unilocal reviews and pictures that I saw intrigued me even more.
I tried so many flavors on my first visit to The Revolution Ice Cream Co. Each flavor was insanely delicious! I ended up settling on a scoop of Euro Trash and a scoop of Drunken Brownies. Euro Trash is Nutella ice cream with biscoff cookie crumbles mixed in. It was beyond amazing! Any Nutella fan has to order this flavor! Drunken Brownies is chardonnay caramel ice cream with brownie bits mixed in. Golllllyyy was that amazing! Seriously my favorite flavor of ice cream ever. It honestly tasted like a big warm, melty brownie with a scoop of the best vanilla ever on top. No idea how they got it to taste that good.
My little brother ordered Salted Caramel S’mores (salted caramel ice cream with a marshmallow ribbon and chunks of fudge covered graham crackers mixed in) and Eurotrash. I tried his S’mores ice cream and it was delish. My mom got her favorite flavor The Seaward (salted caramel, coffee, cinnamon and cardamom) and Ch2Hn (Chocolate Habanero). Both flavors were very unique. My boyfriend ordered What’s up Nutter Fudger (chocolate peanut butter ice cream with nutter bar chunks mixed in) and Chocolate Habanero. Oh man was What’s up Nutter Fudger amazing! The bf said it’s the best peanut butter/​chocolate ice cream he’s ever had in his life.
This place was too amazing. I cannot wait until my next visit!

Where has this place been all my life?
When you first walk in the smell of freshly baked waffle cones are so intriguing. The walls are decorated in original art and the space is filled with mismatched furniture which adds a retro hipster flair.
Now for the good stuff; the flavors are untraditional but OMG good! I tried «Adult Cotton Candy» and sad to say I went back the same day for two more scoops! I also took the Euro trash to go!
The customer service was awesome! I was addressed by my first name and was provided fast service! This will be my new weekend spot and now I’m on a mission to find a gym!

Where do I start?
The IceCream is phenomenal of course. We had blueberry muffin top, drunken brownie, best damn vanilla… All the right balance of flavor and perfectly creamy and rich. I saw that they have «adult flavors» that they ID for which is super interesting, but they were out when I went. Next time!
Since it’s all been said about the IceCream, how about the shop itself? They sell art by local artists (found all over the walls). The furniture /​seating looks to be found or repurposed (really cool) and they play good music!
Another cool thing — my son asked for a sugar cone and was told they don’t have them as they don’t sell anything they don’t make. I have been to fancy overpriced cake and IceCream shops and watched them dump processed syrup or scoop into nasty cones — it seems backwards. Pretty near they don’t do that here and it’s really reasonably priced.
They do make waffle bowls if you want the taste of the cone. Enjoy
