Cap's Ice Cream

A DC★★★★★

It’s a local favorite for a reason! Ice cream is the best, the service is great, and the atmosphere is welcoming. We always have wonderful experience there, it’s definitely a well-loved staple.

The sorbets are yummy. Lemon, mango or peach you can’t go wrong. The single serve cones are a generous serving too. The outdoor seating is wonderful with kids or just by ourselves, young or old, LOL. Butterfly season is beautiful at Cap’s.

Mount Prospect's premier destination. Seriously, the best family owned business in town (not the oldest nor biggest) but is now also the most popular attraction and LESS THAN 300 Yards from Metra train stop. oh, yeah, we're talking ice cream here. Their product truly is worth a special trip and should become a "destination for Chicagolanders who think they've had great ice cream before. Nope, they have not. They gotta go here 1st. It is the Best. Exceptional work Jim, what a legacy you all created!!

Sweetest stop in Prospect, Illinois! 🍦😊🍫 We absolutely loved our visit to Cap’s Ice Cream. A charming, family-owned gem that’s been serving up smiles for 25 years (Happy Anniversary this past Saturday 6/20/2025! 🎉). Whether you’re just passing through or a local looking for a sweet treat, this is a must-stop in Mt. Prospect! The shop itself is adorable. Quaint and cozy with a welcoming porch and a peaceful garden area where you can relax and enjoy your ice cream. Such a perfect setting for a sunny afternoon or an evening sunset! ☀️🍨 Victoria helped us and was so friendly and kind. She
