It's Heavenly

It’s Heavenly is a dessert stop in Seaside’s Central Square, recognizable by its bright blue awning and oversized ice-cream-cone display. Its location makes it easy to add to an existing walk through Seaside rather than planning a separate drive. Families often use it as an after-lunch or evening treat, while adults can stop for coffee or espresso during the day. The shop is small and centered on counter service, so most customers take their order outside into the square.

Ice cream is only one part of the menu. The official business page describes classic Southern flavors, locally made Italian gelato and sorbet, house-made strawberry shortcakes, gourmet cookies, milkshakes, Lavazza coffee, and espresso. Customers can choose mix-ins that are folded into ice cream or gelato on a marble slab, which makes the experience more customizable than selecting a prepackaged dessert. The variety also means a group can divide among frozen desserts, baked items, and coffee without making another stop.

Seasonality matters. The business explicitly states that opening and closing times change with the season. The former directory claim that the shop always opens at 8 a.m. and closes at 10 p.m. should not be published as a year-round promise. During summer, the shop may remain open late enough to serve the evening crowd; during quieter periods, hours can be shorter. Online ordering is available, but availability and pickup timing depend on the current menu and operating schedule.

The Central Square location has no dedicated customer parking. Visitors use Seaside’s public or managed parking systems, walk from nearby accommodations, or arrive by bicycle. Lines can form after dinner and during community events, so ordering earlier in the afternoon may be easier for families with young children. Outdoor public seating is nearby, but it is shared with the larger town center and not guaranteed to shop customers.

People managing food allergies should request ingredient and preparation details directly. Gelato, ice cream, cookies, toppings, nuts, dairy, and gluten-containing products are handled in a compact environment. Sorbet may offer a dairy-free direction, but it should not automatically be assumed safe from cross-contact. Coffee drinkers should also confirm available milk alternatives rather than relying on an older menu.

It’s Heavenly works best as a flexible treat stop: dessert after another Seaside restaurant, coffee during shopping, or a milkshake carried through the square. Confirm It's Heavenly's hours and service schedule directly when those details affect the visit.
