“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“

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

“When the scoop’s too cold,
Lick it like it’s hot.
When the cone starts to fold,
Flip it like it’s not.
If your sprinkles hit the floor,
Scoop ‘em off the spot,
I got thirty-one flavors,
And they all taste hot!“

“Decided to come here after dinner because our son had been telling us we needed to try it out. Even though there was a long line out the door, it actually moved pretty fast! There was only one person working the counter and serving the whole crowd, but they were definitely hustling.

They have a lot of really funky and unique flavors to choose from. We ended up trying the Cookie Monster (served in a donut!) and the Ube. Both were really solid—the ice cream is high quality and definitely explains why this place is so popular.

The process is simple: you just pay on the iPad and then grab your ice cream. Definitely a cool spot to check out if you're in Pasadena and looking for a sweet treat!“

“This is one of my favorite places for gelato! I prefer gelato over soft serve ice cream anytime, and the selection here is amazing. They have an extremely large selection which make it a challenge every time my family and I love all the flavors. The pistachio is excellent, the lemon is perfect, the pumpkin pie which i tried last was delicious and tasted exactly like pumpkin pie. This place is our go-to for gelato. The prices are reasonable too. A must try for everyone.“

“Having Wanderlust Ice Cream at our holiday party was an absolute treat. Their cart was a nonstop crowd favorite, with guests genuinely unable to pick a favorite flavor because every single one was so good. The quality, creativity, and richness of each scoop really stood out. It was the perfect sweet addition to the event.“

“My fave frozen yogurt spot in Pasadena. Try the new butter pecan light ice cream!!“

“Love their sandwiches! Delicious!!“

“The cookies are amazing go try“

“🌟 Oakobing – Pasadena, CA
If you’re craving a sweet escape, Oakobing delivers a frosty dream in every spoonful. I tried the black sesame and strawberry shaved ice—each one a cloud of flavor, delicately layered with mochi and a drizzle of condensed milk. The texture? Feather-light and refreshingly crisp. Seating’s limited, so grab your treat and head to the cozy outdoor nook out back. Pro tip: skip the garage and snag metered parking nearby. A must-visit for Korean dessert lovers looking to chill in style.“

“One of my favorite places in pasadena — clean, delicious, and sweet. It is nice to watch them making your fresh frozen yogurt right in front of you. The workers are friendly but today there was a worker named Jacob, and he was the kindest man in the world. He really made my day.

I usually choose a small cup, which is actually pretty big. I ordered Couch Potato this time. The texture was fun and it tasted great! I would love to try other flavors too.“

“Love all the options and fresh deliciousness!“

“Cinnabon Swirl – Pasadena is located right across from Pasadena City college at the corner of Bonnie Avenue and Colorado Boulevard. It is a great destination for both students and neighborhood clients. It has a positive energy that you feel immediately upon entering. I felt like I was going to a party. \n\nEveryone in the store says hello and gives you the opportunity to look at the selections available on their menu. The staff member I spoke with explained the options and was eager to offer free samples. I decided for this visit on the classic full size Cinnabon. It was carefully boxed and placed in a bag. I tasted the soft serve ice cream and decided it would be my next purchase on a future visit. \n\nI walked around to look at the different displays and refrigerated items available for purchase. The store is bright and cheerful. \n\nAfter a short walk home I enjoyed my Cinnabon for my evening dessert. I think this would be a great breakfast with a good cup of coffee. Great cinnamon flavor as you work your way to the middle cinnamon pastry. Fresh and tasty! \n\nCaravel Ice Cream has always been a favorite, so I look forward to my next visit to give it a try. \n\nThere is parking on the side of the building or in the back. \n\nThis is a great neighborhood for walking with a lot of boutique restaurants and stores. A great place to window shop and get some exercise. \n\nI look forward to enjoying my next visit as much as I did my first!“
