Boop's Ice Cream Parlor & Café

"In the heart of Captiva, there is a little delightful haven for sweet indulgence - Boops Ice Cream Parlor and Cafe. This charming spot has quickly become the go-to for satisfying dessert cravings, especially for those of us waiting on the re-opening of the Bubble Room. Boops isn't just an ice cream parlor; it's a sanctuary of sweetness, offering an array of amazing desserts that are sure to delight. The orange crunch cake, in particular, is a must-try. It's the perfect blend of tangy and sweet, with layers of moist cake and a creamy, crunchy filling that dances on your taste buds. But the appeal of Boops goes beyond just the desserts. The atmosphere is inviting, with a friendly staff that makes you feel right at home. Whether you're a local or just passing through, a stop at Boops offers more than just a treat; it's an experience that encapsulates the warmth and charm of our island community. So, if you find yourself on Sanibel and Captiva, do yourself a favor and swing by Boops Ice Cream Parlor and Cafe. Whether you're in the mood for the famed orange crunch cake, red velvet or looking to explore their wide selection of ice cream and sweets, Boops is the place to be. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you!"

"We had excellent breakfast sandwiches, topped off with the Bubble Rooms amazing chocolate cake. We sat outside with our little dog."

"We don't know how good it is at Boop's, but we do know they didn't have a good selection of ice cream when we visited today. We walked in with the family and the guy behind the counter apologized for being out of all ice cream flavors except a few that he mentioned. Those seemed to be the ones no one else wanted either though. It's an attractive little ice cream shop though and we will give it another try the next time we will be on Captiva Island. I'll update this review then too."

"I got Mint and Cookie Dough ice cream at this awesome ice cream parlor while on vacation in Captiva. I loved it and I definitely recommend! I hope to be back one day!"

"Such a cute little place with the best local coffee on the island! They also have an assortment of breakfast sandwiches, lunch sandwiches, ice cream, floats, and milkshakes!! Their Louis Armstrong lunch sandwich is fantastic and the other two were phenomenal as well. They’re also serving Bubble Room cakes (by the slice or whole cake) while the Bubble Room is being renovated after the hurricane (supposed to be back open Spring 2024). We’ve been here every morning, best spot on the island!"
