When I first came upon this place I was in awe of the line, decided to come back when it wasn’t busy. It was good. Nothing to write home about or stand in a line for 15 min, Try Rainbow ice cream for more of a value.

First of all, when I got to the window to order, the worker did not give any proper greeting OR SAY ANYTHING AT ALL. So then we just ordered an ice cream flavor and the server flat out responded “no.” As I responded I was taken back because I wasn’t sure what he meant by that. When I also asked for this servers name he responded “we aren’t allowed to give it out.” Horrible service.

Decided to stop for some ice cream on the way back to our house and pleasantly stumbled upon this gem! There is no inside you just order out front and they hand your ice cream through a window .Even though it was cold and rainy there was still a line so we knew that was a good sign. I got the chocolate chip cookie dough and boy was that good... such a classic but they nailed it! The guy working that took my order was very friendly and helpful. They had some pretty unique flavors also.. hope to be back in the area to try it again

Hanging out with one of my besties after a concert and as we were walking back to our car we saw this place!! Even though it was a chilly night, who can turn down ice cream??!!! I chose SPOUSE LIKE A HOUSE- malted vanilla ice cream with Reese's Peanut Butter® ripple and chocolate-covered pretzelsAND BLUEBERRY COBBLER -vanilla ice cream with blueberry ripple and sugar cookie gemsOn a waffle cone. My bestie chose PRALINE PECAN -vanilla ice cream with candied pecans and butterscotch rippleANDBUTTER PECAN -butter pecan ice cream with whole roasted, buttered, & salted pecanson a waffle cone. I must say that this is very delicious ice cream. They are very generous with their portions and the price is so worth it! I totally enjoyed my ice cream but maybe I should have only chosen one flavor or two similar that would compliment each other. Definitely recommend this place. The staff is awesome too!!

The cake batter is epic, the line can get long but it never disappoints they also have great deals on DoorDash
I have to say it's hard to find many places that provide homemade ice cream. Thank you to Trevor for proving top tier customer service, very patient young man.

Just as I expected! Delicious!! I had the frozen banana with peanuts. Reminded me of a childhood favorite. The service was great too. Very friendly and would definitely recommend.

The ice cream is great, but the young lady working at 5 pm New Year’s Day was so polite. Her line was so long, but she did a great job.

Truly wonderful ice cream that always hits the spot and located in a very convenient corner of Oceanside. On a hot day this place will be your best friend.
Service at this store is extremely slow every time we come. We have been 2nd in line for the past 15 minutes and have still not ordered. Only one girl working..... very slowly, and a young man just wandering around doing nothing. And another girl in the back.... not sure what she's doing. This is the 3rd time we've come to this place, each time hoping for a better experience and and always disappointed. The workers are the slowest I have ever seen. Maybe there needs to be a manager or ??? Very poor service.
