50 Best Ice Cream Shops near La Canada Flintridge

“I went here for the first time with my family over the weekend, and it did not disappoint!! They have a huge variety of flavors to choose from (almost too much!!) The customer service was amazing! The young man, Dion who helped us out was so kind and patience toward us! He helped us pick flavors from the HUGE menu and even offered to swap out a flavor if we did not like it. I would definitely recommend this place for a night out! It would be nice if they offered samples though.“

“This spot is a hidden gem fr. Every drink I’ve tried here has been on point—flavorful, not too sweet, and the boba is always fresh and chewy just how it should be. The workers are mad chill and super friendly, always make you feel welcome. Whether you’re a regular or it’s your first time, they got you. Definitely one of my favorite go-to boba spots. Oh and the strawberry matcha definitely one of my favorites 10/10 recommend.“

“Delicious ice cream, with top quality ingredients! Sizes are bigger than other nearby shops and it even includes toppings!“

“great place for ice cream“

“Definitely Recommend This Place 👌“

“Do you run in the non-dairy lane and are tired of the same old-same old flavors? Of being looked down on as a tiresome afterthought at most ice cream shops? Then Scoops is your Valhalla, a veritable Mt Olympus of flavor combinations. At least 2 non-dairy choices + a sorbet and it won’t be the same as you bought last week or the week before that. Also, it’s the least snobby creamery in LA.“

“best gelati spot I ever found is gelationbrand must try“

“So cool to be appreciated, and have our spirits lifted at KP LAMC Rehab with Pazzo Gelato!“

“If you're walking on the sidewalk in Echo Park, and see a Hopscotch court on the ground, you might have stumbled upon one of the best ice cream shops in the area. That's exactly what happened to a couple of friends and I as we were venturing out into the wilderness on a Saturday evening. Fluffy McCloud not only has atmosphere and pizzazz, but they also pride themselves in using only whole, organic ingredients. Inside this fine establishment, you'll find a working jukebox, a coin-operated gumball machine filled with Lactaid pills (yes, they thought of EVERYTHING), a perpetual motion machine (like a Space Rail), and awesome and friendly staff that dispatch everyone quickly, yet in a professional and friendly manner. My favorite flavor was Thelma Vanilla (yes, I'm very basiq, I know lol), and I had it in a sugar wafer ice cream cone (highly recommend it over having it in a cup). Definitely a 10/10 ice cream shop in one of the most fun and interesting neighborhoods of Los Angeles.“

“Employee was incredibly kind and helpful! It is evident she loves her job in how she speaks with her customers and makes sure all needs are met! Even the people who can in after us were helped down to a very specific need of theirs! THE FRUIT IS SO FRESH AND THE PALETAS ARE INCREDIBLY TASTY, tasting exactly as their names insist!“

“I'm updating this review
I'm actually in love with there I've cream and customer service ❤️
Not only do they offer different size scoops they have so many flavors. They definitely use real while ingredients🥰😋“

“Ice cream and vegan ice cream“

“Ice cream is delicious. I wasn’t expecting sweet and tart at the same time.“

“delicious. adorable highly recommend“

“My kids and I came out on vacation four years ago and found Leeuwen in West Hollywood. We ended up going for dessert every evening, so on our return trip recently we had to stop in

Glad to see that customer service has remained exceptional and the ice cream delicious !“

“We had an amazing experience with Swrlies owner, Yardley, and his team when they came out to Eliot Arts Magnet to do a fundraiser event for us! After the Eaton fire and being displaced, Eliot Arts Drama and Dance students lost their homes and their creative spaces. Now they are dreaming big for the year ahead, and our event with Swrlies Ice Cream gave them a fun way to do just that! Thank you Swrlies!! @EliotArts“

“Shout-out to the team at Salt & Straw.

I’m usually a creature of habit here. I know what I’m getting before I even arrive. I’ll sample the seasonal and the oddball flavors for fun, but nine times out of ten, I end up right where the tourists do. Honey Lavender on a sugar cone. Locked in. No notes.

This visit, I was sampling as usual when a team member offered me a flavor and thoughtfully let me know it contained trace amounts of alcohol. I appreciated the heads-up. I took the sample, said “thank you, that’s fine,” then jokingly added that I was only 92 days sober and chuckled. The look on her face was of nervousness. I immediately told her it was a joke, and she carried on with assisting me.

In hindsight, I felt a little bad for putting her in that moment, but what stood out was how professionally and kindly she handled it. She stayed composed, respectful, and warm the entire time.

That kind of response says a lot, not just about her, but about the team culture at this location.

Sampling here always feels welcoming, never rushed, never awkward, even when customers deliberately make things… momentarily awkward.

Consistent quality, great energy, and a team that clearly knows how to handle people with care. Much appreciated 🍦👑“

“This is THE best frozen treat place in Montrose! They have an incredible variety of flavors and one is better than the next! Today I got the Blue Honolulu and it was so refreshing and not too sweet. Of course the freshly made waffle cone was a must and it did not disappoint. I cannot believe it took us this long to try this place just because it’s in the beginning of the street, but now that we have tried it, we are never going anywhere else again!“

“I ordered a decaf iced mocha affogato with oat milk and it was delicious. Such rich flavor from the melted gelato. Infinitely better than fake syrups, sugary cloud creams, etc. Would highly recommend getting an espresso drink here!! Best coffee!“

“the most dense, full-contact peanut butter experience i've ever had in treat form; the peanut butter shake is sweet yes, but also absurdly rich, like someone concentrated a whole jar of peanut butter into it, just wish there were more brownie pieces for that price.. i also sampled the lavender froyo and was surprised that it held the same richness without falling into soap territory: sweet-floral, clean, and refreshing. honestly would've gone for a full scoop of that if i wasn't commuting right after; such lovely-attentive staff, this frozen treat spot is a gem, especially after some silverlake flea browsing 🍦“

“I came here to say, I have never heard of this brand before but last night while shopping at my local Jay C (kroger), I stumbled across the Gluten free Gooey Butter cake ice cream and i’m so very glad I did!!! it’s delicious!!!! It’s not often us Gf people get to have cake and I actually don’t care for ice cream. I rarely eat it but that has all changed thanks to Jeni’s. I love it so much I might have ate half of it in one sitting….we listen and we don’t judge 😝. A+++++++++. Please don’t stop making this!“

“I am usually not the type to write a review, but the service that Sebastian provided was top tier. Sebastian allowed us to sample some products and provided some creative suggestions when it came to combination like a peanut butter and jelly like option when it came to gelato. He was extremely patient with me as I made chose a flavor or gelato to take home and even promoted the points system when imputing our phone number before purchasing it. His service alone is 5 stars alone and the products that were sold were extremely delicious as well, I am looking forward to trying more flavors and running into him again for more suggestions he comes across of.“

“Well, I'll start with the taste that crepes have. Soooo delicious! I can't get enough of those crepes. I guess I found a new favorite place!Second of all this is a family own place and I would suggest you all to stop by and try their goodies and support their small business!10 out of 10!!!“

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

“I'm in love with the chocolate chip cookies here they are so delicious I can't explain the level. lol the ice cream is amazing! especially the cookie monster! heavenly delight!“

“I had a banana split with 3 different flavors of ice cream it was so yummy fresh ice cream I live in west Covina I'd drive to fosselmans just to have an ice cream“

“This place is a must stop if you are within an hour’s drive. Fire Bunny is sweet milk drink with creme brûlée topping. And Thai iced tea soft serve served with fresh hot boba?! Yes please!“

“Ice Cream Occasions was such a fun and unique addition to our event! The ice cream cart looked great and added a nostalgic touch, and the selection of treats was perfect. The staff was super friendly and made everything really easy, from booking to setup. It definitely made the day feel extra special, and I’d totally recommend them for any party or event.“

“This Taiyaki + Ice Cream place is at the level of other giants such as SomiSomi. The soft serve has a perfect texture (I tried the Pure Milk flavor with a Taiyaki on top, the Taiyaki being filled with Nutella), the service is quick and efficient, and the store was crowded when my two friends and I went on a Saturday evening. The ambiance is great too, there are so many pictures showing what the options are like, and there are clearly-illustrated menus spread throughout the restaurant. The toppings are available for the customers to grab and add to their ice cream as they wish, and everything, from the Oreo crumbs to the Banana chips are great. You can truly feel that every single item in this store is, indeed, made With Love.“

“We enjoy FF, but our location @Whittier and Orme Ave desperately needs a refresh of the paint and sign. It would be such a bright spot in the neighborhood! It could be a great marketing event.“

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

“Went here after going to Descano to see the tulips. Ice cream is different. Everything is Original. You won’t fine their flavors anywhere else. Nightly recommend going if your in the Pasadena area.“

“Unique and flavorful selections of pies and sortserve.“

“Sure, might be a bit of a wait and it is a little pricy. But wow! Delicious, healthy and sustainable shop.
The lady holding down the fort made sure that all the ingredients of my smoothie wouldn’t upset my chronically ill bowel. And poured the excess smoothie in a second smoothie cup. Thank you.“

“Going to Fosters is a 20 year tradition for us and they never disappoint. The ice cream is always creamy and the fries are always perfectly crispy. They have so many choices to choose from that everyone in the family are always happy. It can get pricey but the quality has not been compromised, so we don't mind. The customer service is great, they're always friendly and helpful. We love Foster's Freeze!!!!!“

“Best Frozen Yogurt Ever Tasted“

“Went here on a whim on a Saturday evening after going to Gold Line. There was a line but it moved pretty quick. Enough time to look at the vast ice cream menu.

I sampled a Texas Sheet Cake and got a Miso Butterscotch Brownie. Both were delicious!

Overall, highly recommend coming here. Delicious ice cream set in a historical building. Service was nice too.“

“I wish they made Thrifty ice cream with out sugar for diabetes. The could make it with stevia, malitol or erithratol.“

“This is the BEST ice cream in the neighborhood. Very balanced and unique Asian inspired flavors, not too sugar-y, natural and delicately delicious 🤤 they are a nice family-owned ice cream shop, with a place indoors and outdoors to sit. Highly recommended. No other ice cream in Montrose Honolulu compares to this! Black sesame is my personal favorite, but all great flavors.“

“Their ice cream are so delicious 😋 We had so much fun and memorable get together with our family who came to visit out of States for the holidays.“

“We tried the crème brûlée one, and it was fantastic. The caramelized sugar layer on top had that perfect crisp crack, and underneath it was smooth, creamy, and really satisfying. The combination of textures — the crunchy caramelized top with the soft, sweet filling — made every bite really enjoyable.

Overall, it was a great dessert and definitely something I’d order again if I come back. If you like crème brûlée-style desserts with that caramelized sugar shell and creamy base, this one really delivers.“

“I came here with my family over the weekend and loved the experience so much I was compelled to write my first Google review ever!

Seriously, this place is so family friendly. My daughter loves all of the crazy flavors and combinations. The best part to me is the quality of the ice cream. You can really tell the difference because they actually make their ice cream onsite instead of transporting it. Definitely will be coming back here again with my family.“

“Best service One of the best raspados. I have been there since a little kid me and my dad always been there. The best store in Lincoln Heights. I will always get a toy chicken from there that store was my childhood. When I was little like 5 I will always sit in the corner of that store every day I always sit there it the same spot it was like my favorite spot to sit in and eat my rasados and ice cream with my dad and mom.“

“One of the best ice creams I’ve ever tried!
This vegan ice cream is perfectly balanced — not too sweet, and the flavor comes from real ingredients, not just sugar. You can truly taste the quality and natural flavor in every bite. Absolutely loved it!“

“The vegan chocolate pistachio is one of the best flavors I’ve ever had here! Love that there’s so many dairy free options that are interesting and not just generic. Sergio was super sweet and patient as I tried different flavors to get the perfect combo. Great service!“

“10/10 The staff here was amazing and super helpful, for being my first time they were patient and all their suggestions were on point. The pistachio and Nutella dipped cone was worth the money! The crema Torino ice cream was definitely my favorite 😍“

“This animation studio is amazing. They have made movies like the Shrek movies, and Puss in Boots, and Trolls and other movies like The Bad Guys and The Bad Guys 2. The Bad Guys movies are my favorite. Mr Wolf is so amazing. Fan Letters to the director Pierre Perifel who directed the Bad Guys Movies can be sent to this animation studio.“

“Maybe the nicest staff in town. As a grown adult who just spilled his ice cream twice on the floor they immediately helped me clean the mess and remedied the situation. I come here often after work cuz treat yourself don’t cheat yourself.“

“authentic real ice cream, made in house and love the unique flavors 😋“

“Came here a few times & although it’s usually busy the staff is good at getting the lines down quickly .. this time coming in I brought a group of kids. Bruce helped us out & he was so friendly & extremely patient with us, as the kids couldn’t decide between multiple flavors .. made the experience a great one .. thanks Bruce“
