The Whole Scoop Ice Cream Shop

My favorite little ice cream spot! My nephew got the ice cream cookie, and I got the brownie sundae. This is a neat little spot for the littles and the young at heart. They have ice cream (cones/cups), protein shakes, sundaes, cakes, and more! It's definitely a place to go when in Hoover.

My family and I absolutely love going to the whole scoop. The staff and owner are always so friendly. I’m gluten free and the owner always takes the time to tell me which ice creams I can have and they have gluten free cones which is a major plus!

Service was amazing. Let me put you on something real quick….. OATMEAL COOKIE ICE CREAM. Stop what you’re doing and get it NOW. Best ice cream I’ve ever had

Took my wife and parents out for ice cream tonight. Whole Scoop was busy with the line to the door. The ice cream here is excellent with a large selection of flavors. We also
Like the cone options as they have probably over a dozen different cones. My wife was happy they have a gluten free one. The young man that waited on us was very friendly and helpful.

Reading these reviews makes me feel embarrassed that the friendly, hard-working owners here get 1 star reviews (if only a few). This place has such welcoming staff, reasonable prices, and delicious ice cream! Not perfect. A little crowded (wonder why, right?) Decor is dated but I like the plaques on the wall. Everyone should try business ownership. Many good days; and some days to finish up quickly and learn what we can from our mistakes. Give Whole Scoop a try. Today was our first time to visit. We'll come back. Jack & Carma

This place is great for meeting friends and family or just by yourself. It is open until 10 pm which is later than Bluff Park Ice Cream Shoppe which closes at 9 PM. With a good selection of ice cream you should be able to find something you like to put on your cone or in your cup. The staff was very friendly and helpful. There is seating inside and tables outside with umbrellas. We are looking forward to returning here for more ice cream cones in the future.

This is a wonderful place to get ice cream! The employees were very friendly! I highly recommend this place!

The Roofing Dudes love whole scoop. We regularly take our kids here for some of the best ice cream around. They have a few sugar free options available, which is a hit for us dudes trying to watch our weight 😎

The longest standing Hoover ice cream shop! The owner himself is almost always there to greet you with literally the happiest smile. He scoops your ice cream himself and that to me is a fantastic business owner. Family owned and super kid friendly! Not to mention their hours of operation are consistent-super important with kids! Whenever my kids want ice cream I know for sure that whole scoop will be open.

We stopped in on a whim, and we're so glad we did. The gentleman that helped us was so nice and talkative. He insisted we try multiple flavors before deciding, and we were glad because everything is soooo good here, it was hard to decide. We'll definitely be back more often.

Good old fashion ice cream shop! Love the owners and the ice cream! Always bringing the family for a treat after dinner!

Everything about this place is great! It simply is THE best place around to get ice cream with your children.

Owner was incredibly nice. Extensive choices of yummy ice cream.

First time eating here and I tried the cake batter. It was really good and it had ribbons of blue and sprinkles in it, very fun. This is a family friendly place. They have more than just ice creams to offer; milkshakes, floats, protein shakes, etc. there was more choices than I expected. I definitely recommend. Staff is friendly!

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream. +Fun atmosphere. I had salted caramel truffle in a chocolate dip cone!

Great family owned business with excellent ice cream selection

I took my soccer team there after our game today. The staff was so accommodating and nice and even gave free ice cream to the coaches. Also, the ice cream was extremely good! Highly recommend!

Our favorite neighborhood ice cream shop. Loved it when it was on S Shades Crest, and now that’s it’s even closer to us, we fill up our punch cards even faster. They also make great ice cream cakes AND you can get nugget ice! Staff and owner are friendly, too.

Our family loves this place! The customer service is exceptional! We recently tried one of their ice cream cakes for a last minute celebration and we are still blown away by how delicious it was!

We visited for the first time & it was great. Lots of flavors to choose from. The service was exceptional! They offered us samples of anything we were not sure about & were very patient with the little ones. We will be visiting again. Thank you!
