A Childhood Dream Realized.
The journey began with the Chillura Brothers and Sis—Patton, Maximilian, Hadley, and Nash—who envisioned a neighborhood scoop shop where families and friends could walk to and gather to enjoy the best homemade ice cream in Tampa. 12 years later this dream took a decisive turn when Max traveled to Bologna, Italy, to master the art of ice cream making. Upon his return, the family transformed a historic Ybor City building into their flagship store, complete with a full-scale ice cream kitchen. We developed a truly all-natural, American style ice cream made from absolute scratch, with passion, care and the best ingredients we could get our hands on
When it's all said and done Chill Bros is about having a good time. It’s a spot for however you want to chill, any day or night of the week. You can expect a warm welcome, a comfortable seat, a fresh playlist, the smell of homemade waffle cones, and an ever-changing line up of the best artisanal ice cream you can find. So, swing on by, grab an Ice Cream and Chill.

WHY ARE WE “CHILL BROS.”?
Aside from being Super Chill and catching the occasional West Coast swell…It’s really an abbreviation of our family name, The Chillura Brothers.
Crafting Authentic, All-Natural Ice Cream
We pride ourselves on using an all-natural custard base made from just five simple ingredients: Florida milk and cream, egg yolks, pure cane sugar, and a dash of salt. This dedication ensures each scoop delivers a rich flavor and velvety smooth texture. You won't find any unnatural stabilizers, emulsifiers, or artificial additives in our ice cream, Not here bro—just pure, delicious goodness
Sourcing the Finest Ingredients
We take pride in sourcing top-tier ingredients both locally and globally. Our Sicilian Pistachio ice cream features pistachios from the slopes of Mt. Etna in Sicily, while our vanilla beans hail from Madagascar. Closer to home, we incorporate fresh Plant City strawberries, Polk County orange blossom honey, Buddy Brew coffee, and freshly zested Florida oranges. This meticulous selection process ensures that every scoop embodies the essence of quality and flavor.
Handmade Mix-Ins and Toppings
we make our own
Beyond our ice cream, our team of pastry chefs and master gelatiers craft every mix-in, topping, baked good, candy, sauce, waffle cone, and flavoring from scratch. This hands-on approach guarantees that every brownie chunk, caramel swirl, and honeycomb crisp meets our exacting standards.
Deep Tampa Roots
As fourth-generation Tampanians, we infuse our local heritage into our ever-changing lineup of ice creams. Flavors like Tampa Banana, Guava Pastelito, and Café Con Leche Chunk pay homage to the vibrant culture and culinary traditions of our beloved city.
