The original Painters in North Myrtle is by far the best ice cream on the beach. Make sure you are not confusing this with the imposters which are farther south in Garden City. If visiting in the summer, expect to wait in line, but worth it!

What a loser!!! My kids were crying and screaming, all they wanted was some icecream...I would NEVER EVER eat at that place!!!!!

My parents started taking us to Painters when we first visited Cherry Grove Beach in 1968. My Grandfather found $80 under one of the picnic tables and you would have thought he had struck gold, but in 1968...that was gold. We all decided that not only did my Grandfather strike gold...we did too...because Painters Ice Cream is Golden!

I go to painter's ice cream every summer and every time it tastes better and better. It is cool to see all of the photos of famous people on the walls. Like Vanna White I think was one of the coolest people who went there, and her signature ice cream is really good. You should go there sometime and visit the other cool places in NMB.

Above average ice cream. I love the banana nut. The only problem is they are out of flavors much of the time. If it's good enough for Vanna White it's good enough for me.

My party of 6 thought that the ice cream was nothing special and the service was anything but friendly. Not a hello, how are you, or even a thank you. We are locals and will not return. Overpriced to boot!

Painters is the WORD for ice cream at the beach. A personal favorite of our family's, and mine since 1974. We've been known to drive the 4 1/2 to 5 hours from Virginia with Painters being the very first stop. Ice cream is always that, creamy. A multitude of flavors all good and fresh tasting. And they'll even pack ya some to take back home.

My husband and I have been going to Myrtle Beach for years and always find time to enjoy Painter's ice cream everyday that we are in town. We have yet to find ice cream anywhere else in the US that tastes as great. My favorite is the Fudge-n-nana. I would recommend that you try it!

This is my husbands favorite place to get ice cream. Every time we get ice cream at home, he compares it to Painters! The Vanna Banana is his favorite! Ice cream at Painters is a must whenever we are in North Myrtle!
