50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Irwindale

“Friendly people run this place, the ice cream is great with Middle Eastern flavor ! But this place is a wholesaler, you can only get it from one of the markets they sell to, i.e. Pasha Market, Maison Rafi, Tropicana International Market, etc.“

“Thanks you for taking the time to double back for my kiddos!! Always great service!“

“626 Ice Cream is a fun and funky and eclectic place. They had music playing outside with small plastic chairs and limited seating inside. Oh and they serve unusual flavored ice cream. They also have non dairy ice cream as well for those that are lactose intolerant. It was quite tasty ice cream and recommended.“

“Staff are awesome!! Yogurt is very yummy!“

“The milk teas (chocolate and jasmine) were really good. I liked the size too. The price is what you expect from a boba place. However, it was understaffed. The girl helping was both at the register and preparing all things. It took a really long time for the order to get out (around 30 minutes).“

“We came here today to check out the Dubai chocolate, and it was really good. The service was phenomenal, like checking the ingredients of the ice creams to make sure which flavors didn't contain nuts, which my brother was allergic to. Again, I had a great visit and felt welcome being there.“

“Best ice cream shop I have ever been to by far. Perfect place to finish up a nice out in Covina, or just to go to in general.

Dietary restrictions: Has keto and dairy free (using coconut cream and/or oat milk) ice cream, ice cream with alcohol infused has a low ABV so it's consider non alcoholic (you can definitely still taste the alcohol)

Parking: Street parking right in front and down the street, large parking lots about a block and 2 blocks south“

“Best handmade ice cream ever!!!! Love the Taro and Ferrero Roche ice cream“

“The bolo bao ice cream sandwich was the bomb! I had it with ube ice cream. The garlic fries - lots of fresh garlic with a side of bomb lemon aoili and house sauce! The best! Passionfruit green tea was perfect for the hot weather! So cute inside too! It's a smaller space and a one man show. Everything is made fresh so please be patient - it's worth the wait! Great service! It's a hidden gem to the right of BofA in the plaza. — at CrispyandFluffed.“

“This ice cream shop is a pop-up (probably permanent pop-up) in The Shops at Santa Anita. I loved the free sample they offered! The server is so generous in offering the samples. The croffle is the best we’ve had for a long time, warm and so yummy. I especially enjoyed the matcha and hojicha, both made with ceremonial-grade tea. The ice cream did not disappoint me either. Totally recommend for sugar craves!“

“Location and

Parking: My girlfriend and I had the pleasure of visiting La Michoacana Ice Cream University, a Mexican ice cream shop. We were looking for snacks to take out for the movies and we were craving some esquites. And so I quickly searched one up and found this place. This is located in a plaza and they're right across from the Azusa Pacific University. And now I know why they named the shop as such. Finding parking is really easy, I had no trouble finding parking although it was at night. But I'm pretty sure during the day you can easily find parking there.Food Selection: We ordered two small esquites – for the uninitiated, esquites are Mexican snacks made with corn kernels, similar to elote but served warm in disposable cups, minus the cob. We also ordered a fruit bowl topped with chamoy and tajin. While everything was delicious, the standout was definitely the fruit bowl, with the chamoy and tajin. It was flavorful and filling. (I will attach pictures of the food for reference.)Ambiance: Stepping inside, the shop was very clean, creating a welcoming atmosphere. I noticed in the front of the shop that they have free Wi-Fi but it was password protected. So I'm assuming that you need to ask one of the staff for the password if you want to study there for a while.Staff and Service: Though I didn't catch our server/cashier's name, he was attentive and friendly throughout our visit. I really like the fact that before handling the food, he washed his hands before attending to us– a small yet crucial detail that deserves commendation.Recommendation: I highly recommend La Michoacana Ice Cream University for anyone seeking some delicious Mexican snacks and ice cream! As a first-timer at a La Michoacana establishment, I was thoroughly impressed and satisfied with the experience. I'm eager to return and continue supporting this small business.Date and Time of Visit: November 2023 on a Sunday.

Parking: Located in the plaza. Plenty of parking.

Kid-friendliness: A lot of ice cream flavors and snacks to choose from!“

“Sus nieves rikisimas los tostilocos para chuparse los dedos se las recomiendo!“

“Excelente customer service love the Mangoniadas delicious everything is delicious“

“I went in on Tuesday, the new owners were in back of me. I was telling the cashier how disappointed my daughter was, we came in on monday and it was closed. Well the new owners, gave me a couple cookies for free. That was so awesome of them. My daughter was so happy and she said" Thank you so much!"“

“Nice owners! Great service! Great prices! The Parlor serves frozen yogurts, fruit smoothies, desserts, and panni sandwiches!“

“I bought 2 orders of the churro sundae. Comes with 2 (6 inch) churros with a scoop of ice cream of your choice. The place was great, staff was great they went above and beyond. I only had one issue. One of the churros was great crispy and chewy in the center but the other one was stale. It happened with both of my orders. I will try it out one more time to see if it happens again. Otherwise, the flavor was delicious.“

“brought back memories, next time chocolate dip cone 😋🍦“

“Very yummy cookies! I came to grab the Olivia Rodrigo cookie, and now I want more cookies. I like how service is fast, and you can watch them make the cookies in front of you! They don’t accept cash here, by the way. They only seem to have kiosks.“

“Just not ice cream. They actually have a lot of snacks from japan. Don't let the metal fencing out front discourage you. Keep in mind you are going to a warehouse so there are no thrills or frills. They allow you to buy in bulk so if you are having a party this is the spot.“

“came here and tried their minis. they were a little costly, but a nice occasional treat. i got the semi-sweet chocolate chunk, cookie dough, and blueberry muffin, which all looked like the picture. i think the warm cookies were the best, and the more recently they come out of the oven the better. service was great and friendly, store was clean.“

“Los helados están buenísimos 😋“

“My 1st time here. They had 2 vegan options. I opted for the chocolate chip cookie dough vegan ice cream. A bit pricey for ice cream though.

Dietary restrictions: They had 2 vegan options

Parking: Shared lot with several other businesses & it was almost full on a Saturday night“

“I recently came into the shop and was surprised by how fast they attended me! I would assume cutting fruit to the order would take longer, but they made it look easy. The crepes were delicious! Forsures will be having them when I go back to El Monte! 8.1.23“

“Loved this place while living in Monrovia. Please look into placing one in Palmdale/Lancaster area❤️🥰❤️“

“I just came back from Italy 2 weeks ago, I surprisingly found out there is a gelato store.
Well , The lady is super friendly.
The store is very clean.
However, to be frankly the gelato is actually not gelato.
Gelato should be very soft, softer than cotton candy, it doesn't have the crunchy nor icy texture, just purely soft and smooth.
You don't bite it , just sip in.

It is not bad as a ice cream store , but sorry not gelato.“

“This is my favorite ice cream shop; truly it can't be beaten. My favorite flavor is the orange blossom cardamom, which is seasonal. I get a pint every time. And the homemade cones are delicious. Pro tip: get empty cones to eat at home with your pint ?
When orange blossom cardamom isn't in stock, the triple milk is my go-to, but they always have such delicious rotating flavors you really can't go wrong.“

“Delicious �“

“Excellent customer service has a variety of options to be honest I was skeptical at first but once I came in I realized it was super clean and they were really nice to me and they have options that a lot of stores around here don't have for example I was looking for one of those fruit stand guys and I didn't find any today because the last time I went to one this guy had no mask I don't think he washed his hands it looks really non-hygienic and it was kind of expensive here it was cheaper than that guy and they were very hygienic and it was such a nice story to come to I would recommend it to everybody around here“

“It was a gamble driving 30 miles to Tamer's site to get Dippin Dots. We didn't really know what to expect and just hoping it is worth the drive. We are so glad we did. Tamer "T" is awesome! He catered to our needs and communicated constantly to make sure nothing is missed. He is very accommodating and will answer any question you may have. We will definitely come back on our next party to get more Dippin Dots. Recommended A+++++++++!!!! Thank you T for the seamless transaction! We will see you on our next party!“

“Amazing for a Friday afternoon“

“The chocolate dipped with sprinkles cone were 😋 yummy“

“Great place for ice cream.“

“Went on international ice cream day and got a small cup of cheese cake dots. Really refreshing on a hot day. Server was nice. Interesting how they melt in your mouth. The rest of the group got different flavors, chocolate brownie batter, mixed.“

“When Im craving a donut this is the place to go. The staff are always friendly and any time of the day they always have multiple selection of donuts. I always recommend friends and family to purchase from them.
I highly recommend you give them a try when you’re in the neighborhood.“

“My friends & I came to Yomie after our lunch, and it was so worth it!! I’ve tried their rice yogurt drinks before, and they were creamy and tangy. I just tried their passion fruit green tea, & YUM~ There’s definitely less of a tea taste, but I love the sweetness to it ◡̈.“

“They are so good and they are delicious“

“Yummy❣️❣️❣️staff is phenomenal ❣️❣️❣️“

“Their ice cream was delicious and they have so many different flavors! There’s a huge variety of options so you’re bound to find something you like. I got a banana split with Rocky Road, Strawberry Cheesecake and Vanilla. The vanilla reminded me of the vanilla in Mexico lol the ice cream mangonada was good but the cucumbers for the “crazy cucumbers” had a distinct flavor that I wasn’t so fond of. It didn’t taste like your regular cucumber in chamoy. Overall they have very taste treats.“

“Next level! Just a dream place for anyone planning an ice cream party -- they mostly sell ice cream in bulk but also offer select individual ice creams that you normally would buy from ice cream trucks. It's not really a place you want to bring your kids just because parking is limited and there's traffic as ice cream trucks are constantly moving around to load up with goodies -- so be very careful if you decide to bring a kiddo. It has a small and busy parking lot but Polar Ice Cream is gem of a place! Great place to get things to pleasantly surprise your family!“

“I believe yesterday was their grand opening so today I made my way over there to show my support. I filled up my water jug (75. cents) and I got myself a delicious raspado de tamarindo ($5). They have dairy and water based paletas, smoothies, aguas frescas, chips, thrifty ice cream, and they make sandwiches too!“

“I've been going here for 15 years+. They have the best tasting water. I live a hour away and we moved in 2019 and that never stopped us from going. The owner is super nice as well is her daughter. I love getting my iced tea there as well.“

“Various Ice Cream flavors! The Fruit Spears are AWESOME!“

“Came here with my wife and got yogurt. Tart was not working so the girl kindly got it working for me. I left a $2 tip. The owner comes in at the end of her shift, takes the money from the can . I may have mistaken, but that was dirty imop. Give the tips to the workers..
Edit.. My apologies. Hopefully they have a special blend of yogurt for those so inclined to steal tips from workers. ?“

“This place has by far the best esquites I’ve ever had, they’re nice and al dente and the flavors are so well balanced
their handmade ice cream is amazing in the summer as well,
This place is a Such a gem 🙌🏻 the owners are very sweet and great at their craft“
