We hand-churn small batches right here in the District — no shortcuts, no weird ingredients, just real cream and real flavor. Pour-over coffee on the same counter? Of course.
Sunshine Creamery started the way most good things do — with a stubborn refusal to accept mediocre ice cream. Our founder kept driving past the same sad scoops at other spots and decided: I can do better.
So she did. We hand-churn every batch in-house, source dairy from local farms, and let the seasons dictate the menu. That means real strawberry in June, spiced butterscotch in October, and a peppermint chocolate that only exists for three weeks in December.
And yes, we take coffee just as seriously. Single-origin pour-overs, draft cold brew on tap, and espresso drinks pulled with the same attention you'd find at a specialty roaster. Two passions, one counter.
We stay open late because we know good evenings don't start until 5. Weekday and weekend hours that actually work for your schedule — not ours.
Green tiles, warm wood, and enough room to spread out. Whether you're grabbing a single scoop to go or settling in for an hour, this is your spot.
Birthdays, team outings, date nights — we'll set up a dedicated ice cream station, curate a custom flavor lineup, and handle the rest. Hit us up and we'll make it happen.
3221 23rd St SE — easy walk from multiple bus routes, free street parking, and right where you'd expect a good thing to be.
Need ice cream at a wedding, office party, or block festival? We travel with our gear and set up on-site. Just give us a heads up.
Walk in, pick a flavor, and see what the neighborhood's been talking about. Or call ahead — we save the good ones.
