Port Austin, Michigan
Small-batch, handcrafted ice cream made the old way — with real ingredients, patient churns, and a whole lot of heart.
Our Story
Rybak's Ice Cream Store has been a quiet staple in Port Austin for as long as anyone can remember. We don't buy pre-made bases or cut corners. Every batch starts from scratch — cream, eggs, sugar, and real flavorings — and we churn it slowly so the texture comes out exactly right.
Our flavors change with the seasons. Some are classics you grew up with. Others are experiments that surprised even us. Either way, every scoop carries the same promise: we wouldn't serve anything we wouldn't eat ourselves.

What We Offer
Real vanilla beans speckled through a rich, velvety base. Simple, but perfect — the way it should be.
Dark chocolate ice cream swirled with fudge ribbons and chunks of brownie. For those who take it seriously.
Made with real strawberries when they're at their peak. Bright, sweet, and impossibly refreshing.
Cool peppermint ice cream studded with dark chocolate chips. Our most popular flavor for a reason.
Buttery caramel with just enough sea salt to make you reach for another scoop. Our signature blend.
A rotating seasonal blend that changes with what's fresh. Ask us what's spinning this week.
