A refrigerator with an ice feeding unit allows an outlet control unit which opens or closes an outlet of an ice container, to be quietly operated. The refrigerator with the ice feeding unit includes an ice container in an ice storage compartment. A control member is installed at a position around an outlet of the ice container to open or close the outlet of the ice container. A connection rod is rotatably installed at a predetermined position of the ice container to operate the control member. A first eccentric part is provided at a first end of the connection rod which is in contact with the control member, to be eccentric from a center of rotation of the connection rod, and a second eccentric part is provided at a second end of the connection rod which is opposite to the first end of the connection rod, to be eccentric from the center of rotation of the connection rod. A rotary cam is installed to be in contact with the second eccentric part of the connection rod, and functions to rotate the second eccentric part of the connection rod at a predetermined angle. A motor drives the rotary cam.
