I have only had the pleasure of eating their ice cream once, but it was memorable. The picture speaks a thousand words. You will be waiting in line.

Delighted to come across this place while in town. I got a nice shake and my wife got a waffle cone with two of the biggest scoops that I have ever seen! It was about 66 today and there was a line up one side of the sidewalk, it did move fast. They have $5 minimum for credit card use... More

Stood in line quite a while, but was rewarded with a delicious and generous scoop of huckleberry in a sugar cone.

I have lived in big cities, I have tried ice creams all over the world, and Big Dipper truly is one of the best! The textures are just the right balance of creamy without being over or underfrozen. The flavors and combinations are truly creative and approachable, without being too over the top. And I have received killer customer service... More

Big Dipper is a quintesential Missoula experience. Charlie and company create innovative and imaginative concoctions out of the best ingredients, making the tastiest ice cream I've ever had. Unless you go during single digit temperatures, expect a line. Going out for ice cream becomes a social outing. The wait is worth it, with so many standard favorite choices and seasonal... More

The Big Dipper has many great flavors they vary from vanilla and bubble gum to green tea and cold smoke ale. They may sound like risky flavors but they are delicious!! My favorite is the cold smoke ale which is also award winning. You can't beat award winning ice cream!

This is a great little ice cream shop near the Hip Strip, in the heart of Missoula. The Licorice ice cream is tasty and also the Heath Candy and Chocolate Peanut Butter---and lots more. Where else can you stand in line and have a great time trying to decide which flavor to taste tonight? Fun place to people watch!

Wonderful homemade icecream, an icon in the Missoula valley. They even have a decent sized doggie cone. MY dog loves it... and so do I!

A fun, funky little walk- up outdoor place in the University District . Very popular and busy all summer. Incredible, unique gourmet ice cream flavors like Mexican cinnamon chocolate, Chai, Pumpkin, Green Tea, Moose Drool, and many more! They are all delicious!
