Miyako Old Fashion Ice Cream

The shop is run by a very sweet older man, I enjoy every visit. It really feels like a shop you could have been to in the 80s. The menu online is often inaccurate and the hours fluctuate slightly around open and closing times, but I definitely recommend it. Remember to bring cash, it's cash only.

The prices have gone up quite a bit but they definitely needed to, I'm sure they were too cheap to make a living before.

Current flavors on my last visit, if the menu isn't accurate:
Chocolate, vanilla, chocolate chip, mint chocolate chip, strawberry, rocky road, cookies and cream, grasshopper, mocha fudge, lucuma, macapuno, rum raisin, butter pecan, black walnut, caramel praline, New York cherry, rainbow sherbet, green tea, avocado and what looked like ube (it was unlabeled).

Tom is the sweetest owner! When my sister and I mentioned we were sharing, he surprised us with a free extra scoop 🥹 The ice cream itself is some of the best I’ve had, definitely a spot worth visiting!

Iconic SF spot with insanely low prices owned by an angel named Tom 🧡

Nicest owner ever! They only take cash, so he gave my kids some huge samples, because we didn’t have any. Came back for more with cash of course, because the ice cream tastes amazing.

i loved it! would go again!!

Great! A whole meal for less than $5!!

Kind service. Great prices.

Cash only.

$5 for double scoop: banana and lucuma (Peruvian fruit) were really good!

Great value! I doubt you’ll get this much good quality ice cream for this price at any other ice cream shop in this area. But aluminum foil seems unnecessarily wasteful.

Sampled a couple other flavors. I was very disappointed in ube. Jamaican fudge(?) was way too sweet. Can’t remember the other ones I sampled because it’s been a few days and they just didn’t leave much of an impression.

It’s a little dark and smelly inside the shop, but it was nice to enjoy the ice cream after walking to a nicer part of the city.

Best ice cram in town! Tom is the nicest person, biggest cup of ice cream only 5$!!

Tom was super kind and very friendly! The ice cream was good and very affordable.

A legacy gem! Seriously, seek it out :)

Delicious ice cream and great customer service! 10/10 recommend!!

Very sweet shopkeeper and delicious ice cream, very generous portions

Great variety of flavors and the cheapest I've seen ice cream in a long time. Also the dude manning the counter was exactly the kind of guy you want running an ice cream shop.
If I lived in SF this is the only ice cream place I'd go to.

Tom was super helpful! Ube and banana were both amazing.
