Cali Cream Homemade Ice Cream

Very good vegan ice cream!

I appreciate a shop attempting to make unique ice cream flavors. In particular, I’ve always been a fan of tea/flower flavors like earl grey, jasmine, lavender, etc or alcohol flavored ice cream. I’ve watched some of my fav stores close down one by one with the remaining shops just having bland chocolate or peanut butter flavors. I’m happy that this business thinks outside of the box and is trying to give us unique options. I really like their lavender honeycomb and kahlua. Their ice cream is flavored well and it’s not too sweet. Maybe in the future they will offer ube again when I order or venture into more tea flavors. ;) I’m happy to support a local business doing their best.

This place has wonderful customer service and baked from scratch desserts would absolutely recommend.

What a great find in the Gaslamp District. They had 70 flavors of ice cream. The 2 I had were delicious. They also have pastries and cookies.

This was my first experience at Cali Cream and Maleah did not disappoint. She greeted me with the most amazing smile and spirit willing to help and give taste samples. On top of that her hype team member Megan was fire as well while she was refilling the ice cream with a beautiful smile and kind spirit. I signed up for the rewards and ordered an orange pineapple Chocolate dipped waffle cone with nuts. The amount of ice cream was very generous for a great price. I will be back!

Really creamy and not very sweet! We had lavender and it was delicious! Portion size is huge for one flavor. They go by flavors rather than scoops. One flavor is 3 scoops - the smallest.

The espresso chip ice cream was delicious. It’s so light and creamy!

The peanut butter salted taffy was the best ice cream ive ever had

The only thing better than the ice cream is the awesome staff they have working here. Thanks for the awesome ice cream!

Ate lavender ice cream there back in 2023 and still think about it till today. Definitely want to eat there again!

Cali Cream is hands down one of the best ice cream shops in San Diego. Their ice cream cups are packed with rich, creamy texture and tons of flavor options — everything from classics to wild seasonal picks. You can tell they use quality ingredients because each scoop tastes smooth and fresh. It’s affordable considering the quality, and the portions are super generous. The vibe inside is bright and fun, perfect for hanging out with friends or cooling off after a long day. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, Cali Cream is a must-try sweet spot downtown.

Delicious ice cream, great service. Price was fair for homemade ice cream. Chocolate marshmallow chunk is so good.

Straight up the best ice cream I've ever had and the prices are really good.

The ice cream is really great. The smore was especially yummy. But best of all they have many gluten free options including gluten free waffle cones! My son was over the moon to finally get a cone with his ice cream.

This was the best ice cream I’ve ever had!!!
