“I was here for about five minutes, but the taste of the cookie milk & cookies is enough for me to give this place 5 stars this time. Not too sweet or rich (I do have a sweet tooth so that opinion is probably skewed) and I liked the simplicity of my single scoop. It was enough for me to get my fix and didn't make me feel awful afterwards. I didn't try the other flavors but they seemed like a fresh departure from the usual combinations of other ice cream spots. Also, from the utensils, bowls, and sample spoons they use it seems like this place is environmentally friendly which is a plus. The staff were friendly and approachable too. Will definitely come back next time I'm in the area!“

Mr. Dewie's Cashew Creamery Ice Cream Shop • $
4184 Piedmont Ave, Oakland

“A charming little corner shop! I’d never had cashew-based ice cream before, and it did not disappoint. The flavors were rich, flavorful, and satisfyingly creamy. The guy at the counter was so accommodating with our group of 5, patiently letting us sample a wide range of the flavors.I was very pleased with my kid’s scoop of matcha! The matcha was fantastic - you could really taste the slightly bitter graininess of the matcha. As another option, you can also get a split scoop of two flavors with a single, which is pretty nice.The only slight downside was parking, though after some circling through neighborhood streets, we were able to find some street parking. I’m sold on cashew ice cream!“

“Come for the ice cream, but consider the burger too.All of it is pretty thick and creamy. Great portioning. Surprisingly, the calamansi is my fave. It's for THE REAL calamansi lovers, a love for sour is required. But it's the most accurate calamansi ice cream I've ever had. Toasted sesame is awesome- like a sesame ball in an ice cream. Lemon blueberry swirl - all yum. more blueberry preferred. Strawberry poptart - fairly accurate. Pretty goodNow about that burger - solid. It's got all the ingredients to make one of my fave burgers - mustard grilled pattie, extra pickles, lots of onions, and a super soft bun. but it was too strong on the mustard,and the bread doesn't taste like it was cooking with the burger on the grill. A little toasty would've gone a long way“

“I am not Vegan and these are so good!!! I picked these up for my boyfriend's family who are vegan. The apple fritter was definitely my favorite, but they are all yummy. The girl working was very patient and friendly when helping me choose which ones to get. She also threw in some extra donut holes! The cinnamon one everyone raves about was sold out when I went around 11am. I'll definitely be back to bring them to the next family gathering. 10/10!!“

“Wow! What an incredible experience it was to go to Fentons Creamery for dessert! Ww could have had burgers and other diner-foods but we focused on their HUGE selection of ice cream varieties as well as combinations of flavors. While we shared three huge scoops of wonderful homemade ice creams, our friend ordered a scoop of chocolate ice cream served with hot fudge! Going to Fentons is a treat for kids of all ages! They also sell delicious ice cream cakes!“

Flavor Brigade Ice Cream Shop • $

“Review from 4/11/24: My cousin and I took my one year old son and he loved the orange cream and sour watermelon Italian ice. The guy working was nice and let my son try the banana Italian ice, but he did not like it. My cousin ordered mango and passion fruit Italian ice. The passion fruit wasn't very tasty, but the mango was delicious.“

Humphry Slocombe Ice Cream Shop • $$
2335 Broadway, Oakland

“I visited this location that is situated in a courtyard off of Broadway in uptown Oakland, CA. This location is an upscale ice cream truck on wheels. It was well into the evening and close to closing when I arrived to see there were no customers in line and the courtyard was empty. The attendant was very friendly and engaging and I think our conversation carried on longer than I expected because we both realized we had ties to the Washington, D.C. area. I appreciated his customer service. The ice cream was good. It is on the same level of similar ice cream shops that attempt to distinguish themselves by having unique flavors and ice cream concepts. Overall a good sweet treat experience. On this occasion I ordered a brownie sundae with cookies and cream ice cream. I was a bit indecisive with the ice cream selection as I originally wanted to order a two-scoop cone, however in a rush I didn't take my time in selecting a more traditional ice cream flavor to accompany the chocolate brownie with chocolate fudge. But it was still delicious. Give them a try.“
