34 Best Ice Cream Shops near Larkspur

“Had an amazing experience at Frankie & Jo’s this weekend. Incredible customer service and super helpful on letting me know what is in the ice cream and detailed on how the flavors taste like. The employee who helped me out was Lara and she was very nice, patient, and great with kids. Highly recommend this place to anyone in the area either visiting or a local resident.“

“Beat topping selections, and the yogurt is high-quality.“

“delicious 😋 food. The chicken sandwich was off the hook“

“Historically best ice cream in SF!“

“Best hot chocolate ever. Definitely trying the Gelato next!“

“Popped in on July 4 and we’re so lucky this place was open! Owner was super friendly and let me try a few flavors before I landed on the flavors mint and dark chocolate and sea salt (sorbet).

My partner got the blueberry cheesecake - also delicious. Flavors change every month so we’ll definitely be back

Plenty of parking out front. I wish we lived closer so we could’ve bought pints that wouldn’t melt by the time we got home“

“I had the one scoop hot fudge sundae with my choice of icecream flavour. It was delicious! If it was ‘Norman’ serving he was a delight taking such care over each order and every scoop. I didn’t mind waiting to receive such thoughtful service. Highly recommend 🍨😋“

“Stopped by Ghirardelli for a dessert break and ordered the Strawberry Passion Hot Fudge sundae. The portion was huge and packed with a lot of ice cream. The chocolate-dipped strawberries were surprisingly big and sweet, and the hot fudge sauce tasted really good with the ice cream without being overly sweet. Everything balanced together nicely, and it felt like the perfect treat while taking a break around the area.“

“I had a great experience at Angela’s Ice Cream. Their service really stood out—they happily let customers try different flavors before deciding, which made the visit even more enjoyable. The ice cream was some of the best I’ve had, and our server was especially friendly and welcoming. Her warm attitude made the whole experience feel personal and memorable. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Good stuff, love nondairy options!“

“I’ve been to a lot of ice cream places around the world and this is my favorite one (get the vanilla honey lavender flavor). Not only is the ice cream delicious and waffle cone crunchy, but it is very cheap (I swear ice cream has gotten so expensive - like why are some places charging $10). The only downside would probably be that they only take cash.“

“Unique and exquisite homemade ice cream, original, tasty and so much more!😍 Don't hesitate to visit their cute shop and try them all!“

“Best ice cream cakes ever! You can absolutely taste the difference when it is homemade. Every topping was exquisite, and the designs are beautiful. The ice cream was thick and creamy, and the chocolate sauce heavenly!“

“Walked by this pop-up restaurant on the way back to our car, decided to give it a try and was not disappointed. The young woman providing service was very friendly did a wonderful job putting together are bare basket and cookie sandwiches. They're pretty big two people could easily split it.“

“Delicious Harvey Milk and Peanut Butter. As good as it gets.“

“You make my birthday girl so happy, especially the Unicorn. Make her birthday for this year sweet...it really makes her enjoy this lonely birthday becomes a joyful one“

“Servers are fun to talk with and to learn about the best treats!“

“We took the ferry to Sausalito on a cold, windy day, but there was no way we were skipping Lappert's.

The staff was incredibly patient and kind with our kids as they asked to sample what felt like half the menu before finally making their decisions. They never seemed rushed and made the experience fun for the whole family.

Every flavor we tried was fantastic. Not a single one disappointed. Our son loved his ice cream so much that he went back for seconds, while our daughter and I both happily ended up with two scoops.

When ice cream is this good, the weather doesn't matter. Lappert's was one of the highlights of our day in Sausalito and easily some of the best ice cream we've had. If you're visiting, don't miss it.“

“good vibe, workers were very nice, good flavors of ice cream and super cool idea to have a cookie cup (think waffle bowl). the 2 cookies i tried (peanut butter and cookies and cream) were good, nothing to write home about but good and a nice size. the ice creams had unique flavors (i tried oreo cream and butterfinger--the butterfinger was phenomenal) that were executed well. i do wish the cookies and cream cookie would have had some mixins or frosting or something. wish we wouldve found this place sooner so we could have tried more! my aunt loved the ginger ice cream“

“My favorite food is everything on the menu“

“It’s beyond wonderful. Tony spumoni, pistachio, ginger, too too good“

“We tried two Ghirardelli cups — one with the Dubai topping and strawberries, and the other with the Dubai topping and ice cream. Both were delicious! The Dubai topping is very rich and intense, while the ice cream gives a nice balance.

I think the perfect combination would be strawberries, Dubai topping, and ice cream together — it would be lighter and more balanced. Overall, a very tasty dessert experience!“

“Stopped by recently on a hot summer day for some gelato. Talk about a perfect repast to beat the summer heat. I had hazelnut and mango, and the portions are very generous. I didn't ask, but I think they make the cones in-house. Anyway, strange combination, I know. The mango was immediately delicious but I think I messed up combining the two because when it came time for the hazelnut, I was too full to truly enjoy the depth of flavor. Next time, I'll get it to take home. I love the location, it's in one of my favorite areas of San Rafael with shopping, good food and entertainment in abundance. Haven't had the pizza yet, but I'm a New Yorker and we're picky about our slices!“

“I used to get Yomie’s in SoCal, and it was a yummy alternative to boba when I wanted something different. The yogurt smoothies at the North Beach location taste pretty similar but seem to be blended a little thicker. I got the passion fruit smoothie with less sugar and purple rice as a topping, and it was very filling. Definitely recommend as a drinkable snack.“

“We love everything about this place

You feel like family coming here. The ingredients are so delicious and my stomach feels just fine after eating the pizza.

From garden veggie to pesto to chicken, it’s all good!“

“One of the best! We love Easy Breezy because of their delicious toppings, but they don’t always have the best ice cream flavors. One time we went and they didn’t even have chocolate or vanilla at all! But still, overall their frozen yogurt is amazing! We recommend it for family’s who have free time. 😁 ( This was written by my 6 year old! )
Thank you!“

“I love this classic frozen yogurt shop. They always have great new flavors (as well as the classics) and the best toppings whether you are a candy or fresh fruit fan. The staff is always friendly and helpful.“

“So yummy ! Choose any cookies and any ice cream flavor.“

“Great oldschool sandwiches... get a small because the mediums are huge lol. Unless you're hella hungry.“

“Happiness in a cup. And a cone 😁“

“The ice cream so refreshing and services are excellent! Strongly recommended when you’re in Chinatown 👍😋🍨🍨“

“Only thing I come in to order is the Crazy Coffee Smoothie! And it's on hit every time! 👍🏽“

“Good. Then we sharpen, not add.

Here’s your top 1% elite version. Cleaner, more precise, one stronger visual line:

You come for a crepe. You forget to rush.

Millie’s Crêpe et Crème sits inside the Mill Valley Lumberyard, quietly confident. A small window, patterned tiles, handwritten menus. Nothing competing for attention.

The crepes are the point. Thin, warm, just crisp at the edges. Sweet or savory, done properly without trying to impress. Organic wheat or buckwheat, and the gluten-free option feels intentional.

The details carry it. Buffalo milk soft serve from Double 8 Dairy. Coffee from Signal in Berkeley. Paper plates turned into menu cards, casually lined up behind the counter like a still life that happens to be useful.

Then the courtyard. Wooden tables, string lights, a slow rotation of dogs and locals who already know. You sit down for a few minutes and time softens around you.

It doesn’t announce itself.
It simply gets it right.“

“Loving Cup in Marin is a sweet spot for delicious, customizable frozen yogurt and rice pudding. The frozen yogurt is made fresh with a variety of mix-ins, offering a creamy and satisfying treat. The rice pudding is a unique offering that’s equally delightful. Friendly staff and a cozy atmosphere make it a local favorite for dessert.“
