This place is tasty. Very sugary sweet treats, but yummy. We ordered one bar and one soft serve type, but the soft serve is a way better base. The girls working the ice cream shop were young, but attentive. But, they had no AC in the shop which was really brutal with our hot summer. I asked one of the girls about the heat and she said the AC broke. But, you're in Laguna Beach, charging top dollar, have a busy flow of people non-stop and have ice cream and workers that need...

We love South Swell! They have the options for your base: vanilla or chocolate ice cream bar, vanilla or chocolate or swirl soft serve, frozen banana, or dairy free ice cream bar. Then you choose your toppings/chocolate dip. You could go every single night for a year and still not try all the combinations! So delicious. The line gets long on summer nights but normally moves quickly and defo worth the wait. Fun music while you wait in line normally too.

Worth the wait! A bit of a line but the deliciousness totally made up for it. The flavor combinations (like salted caramel and toasted coconut or Nutrageous) were creative and tasty. Big shoutout to the staff, too – good vibes only, even with a crowd.

A must-try when you're in Laguna Beach!
