Our Story
Discover Our Journey
Nestled in the heart of Key West, our ice cream shop began with a simple dream: to blend traditional techniques with local tropical flavors, creating a product as unique and inviting as our island itself. Our founders, two lifelong friends with a passion for artisanal ice cream, started Key West Polar Bear Ice Cream in 1998, turning their passion into Key West’s favorite dessert destination.

Why Our Ice Cream?
What sets us apart is our commitment to quality and creativity. Our signature flavor, “Key Lime Polar Freeze,” combines the tartness of local Key limes with the sweetness of creamy vanilla, topped with a sprinkle of sea salt – a tribute to the vibrant flavors of the Keys.
OUR SECRET INGREDIENTS: Each scoop of Key West Polar Bear Ice Cream is a piece of local art, crafted from the finest ingredients sourced right here in Florida. We pride ourselves on using fresh, natural components, from juicy Key limes to rich coconuts, ensuring every bite is a burst of pure, creamy delight.
