Good variety, crowded on weekends. Some ice cream flavors look like they have food coloring (like a pistachio) but the coffee based flavors were well done.

Bro this place has the best ice cream ever. I am genuinly not that crazy over ice cream but I find myself constantly getting some here. The location is perfect in regards to a hot day out downtown, and the staff are impeccable! You can tell the staff like their jobs, the energy was amazing and I felt super safe and comfortable at this location. Whenever I go get ice cream this is my go to!

After grabbing some pizza from Pizza My Heart, our family decided to grab some icecream! Polar Bear Ice Cream stood right where we were walking and the variety of icecream flavors offered caught our eye.
You are able to sample the flavors to try. I noticed that the flavors are organized according to a particular theme so that helps with navigating the large menu.
For a family of five we ordered a triple scoop since one of us is lactose intolerant and we were all quite full.
The three flavors we have chosen were all chocolate-based *Heaven - peanut butter 🧈 taken to another level, incredibly rich so it slowed us down to eat * Chubby cub chocolate - the chocolate was not too sweet which made it SO GOOD! best chocolate icecream *One mysterious flavor we forgot the name of but we’ve been told it’s one of the most popular - it had some Carmel in it (the middle scoop of our picture) and if you love caramel this is a must
We thank the staff for their service. The size of the scoops were kind too. God bless you all

Got the Pacific Double Header, it was some of the best ice cream I've had. I'm still thinking about it the next day. Their ticket system is also really nice for crowd control

During our recent family trip to Capitola Beach, post lunch we dropped into Polar Bear Ice Cream Shop. 45 plus years Ice Cream Shop. USP: Hand made small batch Ice Creams in Exotic Flavours made using locally sourced ingredients. Butter Pecan and Coffee Toffee were awesome. Value for money must try ice creams when in Capitola
The employees were very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful! The salty Carmel was the bomb! My wife and have been here twice over the years. We come here on our vacation. I highly recommend this place! Parking is a little challenging, but well worth the trip!

So good, so cute, and so worth it! Getting gelato here is a touristy thing, but it will make your visit feel so much more special. Grab a gelato and take it for a stroll on the beach — you won't mind the extra calories!
