We've been going to Frosty Caboose for many years. Many icecream flavors, sorbet, sherbet, shakes and sundaes served from a red caboose. Friendly service and you can watch the trains go by. Great spot to bring friends and family to get icecream.

I visit on Tuesday June 2nd. The ice cream flavors are yummy but the serving size for the price is small. One scoop for $4.20 and the scoop is very small. It doesn’t sit above the rim of the tiny cup it’s serve in. When you get a cone, they don’t put a small amount down in the cone first. It’s one small scoop balancing on top of the cone. I would rate them a five star if the serving sizes were decent but it’s not, which is why I only stop by this place maybe once a month. The Caboose is cool and the location is perfect for family with kids. There’s a small area to hang out in the shade and watch trains and planes go by!

Nice place for an after dinner dessert. Love the railroad vibe! Staff was helpful in answering questions. Ice cream was great! The local company that they were buying their ice cream from has gone out of business so they now source their ice cream from the Hershey Company..

Perched right in the heart of historic Chamblee, this isn't just an ice cream shopβ€”it is a literal red caboose converted into a premium creamery.

The Coal Train was a fantastic pick for any chocolate lover. It was rich, had varied textures, and felt like a truly classic ice cream parlor sundae. The portions at Frosty Caboose are big, making it a great value. Beyond the ice cream, the atmosphere of Frosty Caboose is a big part of its appeal. The novelty of ordering from a caboose, along with the occasional rumble of a passing train, creates a fun and engaging environment, especially for families and train fans. While there's no indoor seating, the outdoor picnic-style setup encourages you to enjoy your treat in the open air. Frosty Caboose's Coal Train ice cream is a highly recommended treat for anyone craving a classic, indulgent chocolate sundae. The mix of rich chocolate ice cream, delightful cookie crunch, and warm fudge makes for a harmonious and satisfying experience. Combined with the unique, train-themed setting, it's a place that offers more than just dessert – it offers a memorable outing. I'd happily take "The Coal Train" again!
