If you’re looking for unique, Filipino-inspired ice cream flavors, Sampaguita is definitely worth the stop! The ice cream is rich, creamy, and delicious. Our group tried the Sampaguita (sahm-pa-GEE-tuh), Soy Sauce Butterscotch, Ube Shake, and Ube Cookies ’N Cream — all was delicious. They also offer vegan flavors, which was a nice surprise.
The shop has a super cute, trendy interior design, with walls perfect for Instagram photos, plus some baked goods as well. Service style: you order, get a number stand, and they bring your ice cream to your table.
⚠️ Things to know:
It gets VERY busy, especially on weekend nights (we went Saturday around 9 pm, and there was a line out the door).
Seating is limited, so finding a spot can be tough if you’re with a larger group.
Parking can be tricky — there’s a small lot in the back, but often full, there is also street parking.
Initially, we had a small hiccup with sampling flavors (we were told 4 max), but later manager Johnny personally came over to check in and make sure we were happy. He explained that they do want guests to try as many flavors as they’d like and went out of his way to make it right. That level of care made a huge difference in the experience — and is why I’m rating this much higher than I originally would have.
Overall, Sampaguita is a fun, creative, and delicious dessert stop that’s worth the wait. Highly recommend if you’re in Orlando and want something unique beyond the typical ice cream shop! ✨
