Ice Cream Shops near San Lorenzo

“The ice cream is amazing. The texture is difficult to describe but it is soft and creamy. I got the Oreo flavor and I made the mistake of only getting one scoop. But I will be back.

I also tried my cousins ice cream and she got one scoop of corn and one scoop of cheese, hear me out and give it a try if you're feeling adventurous. It may not be typical ice cream flavors but they were amazing!!

They do not do free taste samples though unfortunately, but I can understand. Some people just take advantage of free samples/tastings and they are located in a busy intersection that is very close to a high school so imagine if they had to give free samples to every single person... They should at least look into charging for samples because I want to try some flavors without committing to a whole scoop. I would definitely pay for like a little sample platter for sure.“

“Got recommended here for a breakfast spot to try. Haven't been disappointed. I love the little griddle used to make. I'm pretty sure 100s of sandwiches a day for customers. It's made with love and fresh. Each sandwich one at a time. The lady who makes them she takes her time to make them correctly for each persons order, so if you're waiting a little bit, trust it's worth the wait and your pockets. No wonder it's a cross the san leandro High School. Quick and cheapest breakfast to go. Donuts are fresh as well. Great prices for all menu items here.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes there is a ramp right next to the handicap parking spot on the premises.“

“This place is amazing and family owned. great people work there and amazing ice cream.“

“Very friendly owners. Brazilian pour over Iced Coffee was delicious.“

“Good stuff, love nondairy options!“

“Sweet Mex makes the BEST Mangonada around! They're unmatched. They also make delicious food. The Carne asada tacos are delicious, the street corn is tastey, & the tostiloco's satisfies every bit of my savory craving for the day. Basically, they have a little something for everyone! Salty, Sweet, refreshing...you name it, they GOT IT! 🤩“

“The homemade ice cream is by far the best I have ever had. It’s like your eating fruit that’s been iced. Then the Tortas…yum… and top it off with one of those ‘gazpachos’ (fruit cotail like no other) with that lemon salt and Chile stuff… Heck Yeah I recommend!“

“great-tasting icecream and sherbet“

“Great product. Pleasant and helpful staff.“

“Best Yogurt in Town! Very friendly owners!😃“

“Delicious Afghan ice cream. Glad my mother and I tried it. #Sheeryakh“

“You will enjoy this place I sure do.“

“Good place nice people there“

“Fresh Fruit and smoothies !! Great place to go after a great run or exercise!!“

“I love the coconut and taro flavors. My son loves that there are lots of fruit flavors. My other son loves the quantity of different flavors.“

“A friend suggested this place to me yesterday so of course I had to pop in to check it out. I walked in and immediately noticed how clean it was. Not only was the owner there, but he was super friendly and told me and my daughter about how he makes the ice cream himself with the help of his wife. I really don't think I've tried creamier ice cream. Was VERY impressed with everything about this place and will be coming back with family and telling friends to go here as well!“

“Excellent staff. Delicious - big fan of that pluot sorbet!!“

“we order a milkshake it was so delicious and would go again 😋“

“im a brokeass student and everyday is a living hell for me because of the hotass weather plus my horrible grades😭😭

i went to QTea Bar for the first time and honestly - ITS NOT BAD FOR A PERSON WHO ONLY HAS $10 AT THE MOMENT LIKE ME.

basically, its a small place - however they offer a lot of items on their menu! the one on the picture is the Brown Sugar Milk Tea with Boba, which costed $7 dollars (I DROPPED MY JAW AT THE PRICE, BUT ITS FINE I GUESS?)

i chose Normal sweetness level and was expecting a nice sugar level, but was instantly kicked with a flavor that felt like 10 spoons of sugar on my mouth😭💔

i suggest letting it dilute for a little bit and drinking it, because the sugar really was kicking me 🫩

im used to the “normal” amount if sugar level since im a sugar-tooth, but if youre an adult, i suggest 50-75% sugar - also the toppings (boba, etc) are $0.50 — which is an okay price

the employees are super nice, they only had 2 people working at the time i was there - so i believe its a small business run by them

overall; great service, nice menu, small place but functional!

5/5 in my opinion, if i were bias, id give 3.5/5, but they were kind :)“

“I am so in love with their savory crepes lol... The service is great and quality of food focuses on flavor! mmm good“

“Very crafty, tasty, delicious boba drinks at a conventient Hayward plaza that has Cane's In N Out, Sprouts, Chipotle, etc...

The staff is very friendly and attentive. We were greeted right away and the cashier helped us order by answering all of our questions in detail. In the end I got a very delicious Dalgona Milk Tea Brulee with boba. I'll be coming back soon to try out more of their unique creations“

“We LOVE Knudsens!!! Our favorite!!“

“Enjoy coming to yogurt shack in the heart of Danville. Great variety of yogurt flavors and toppings. The owners staff with mostly high school youth. Looks like an excellent first job and the kids seem to not only enjoy working there but are very friendly and helpful. I love that it is conveniently located next to primos. It's a great after dinner treat.“

“Vegan Donut Gelato is PHENOMENAL! My wife and I loved our brief stop this week. The donuts are massive and well worth the price. Friendly service and the woman who served us was great. Highly recommended!“

“When schools were open, I would stop here with my sons on the way home. We are from Puerto Rico so we were super excited to see mamey, guanabana and guava ice cream made with real fruit. We would buy something to eat on the way home and extra for the rest of the family. Their Mangonadas are huge, packed with fresh mango, refreshing and super delicious. We usually share them! My go to snack is the Elote (in a cup). Every time family is in town, we take them here.When the schools were open, I would stop here with my children on the way home.

“❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💜💜💜💜💛💛💛💙💙💙💚💚💚🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍“

“Mangonada, nieve de garrafa, raspados, bionicos, tostilocos, tejuinos“

“Did not see any Asian people while here.“

“I usually stop for a shake or packed ice cream. The sundaes are very good but with a quart of ice cream I can tell myself I'm not eating it all in one go. (A lie!). They also have coffee, doughnuts and some hot breakfast sandwiches so not just a dessert place. Friendly owners I always enjoy visiting with.“

“We usually just go to Fosters Freeze for ice cream. I had an Old Fashion Cheeseburger whole my son got an ice cream cone. The burger was fantastic! I’ll do that again.“

“Es nieveria o neveria??? En fin lo que sea pero esta súper el servicio y agradable personal“

“Yesenia is a recipe genius! Every dish I've tried from her blog has been a hit. Her recipes are easy to follow and always turn out delicious. If you're looking for foolproof recipes that will impress your taste buds, she's your go-to. Maltese local dishes .. elevated, sophisticated, just perfect!“

“Crumbl had a collaboration with Martha Stewart this week, they also gave out a free chocolate chip cookie. Obviously lines were long and no one paid attention to the signs the staff had out. They only staffed TWO employees during this entire situation and one was almost finished with his shift. Major shout out to Lara and Jacob who were working on 11/6, they held it down and weren't rude or impatient or anything! Thank you so much.“

“I liked Fosters Freeze but for years, after clicking like or follow repeatedly over that time, it keeps rejecting me. So good luck. Never had a complaint with the food or service. Just treated poorly online.“

“I grew up eating here when I live in CV. The lady that ran this establishment did it for 35 years, I'm glad it's still in the family. I happened to stop by for the first time in over a decade, and the ice cream and service were still 5 how I remembered. Keep it up.“

“My husband and I just spent two weeks visiting Oakland and we discovered Gelato Firenza (near Grand Lake Theate) one week into our trip. Once we did we made a special trip there every day, and one day even went twice! It’s the best gelato we’ve tasted anywhere, and we’ve been all over.

We first had gelato 40 years ago in Rome and were delighted as it became increasingly popular all over the world. We’ve tried it in many places, but this is our favorite.

We learned that it’s all natural, no additives, and made on the premises daily by the owner, who is so devoted to getting the flavors just right that she often spends four or more days perfecting them.

We love the fact that it’s not overly sweet, so you can really taste the underlying flavors (and feel good about it having less sugar). They’re very generous about allowing you to taste before ordering, and the prices are excellent.

Our favorites were: hazelnut, salted caramel, strawberry and rose (which was so unique and delicious!) Others we tasted and loved included Earl Grey, Matcha, coconut, almond, Dulce de Leche, and cookies and cream, but every flavor we tried was truly delicious.

For reference I have only written two other reviews in my life: one about my dog’s veterinarian, and one about a hotel in Thailand. But this gelato is so special and the owner so delightful I had to pass the word on.

We can’t wait to return to the Bay Area for more.“

“Delicious Ice crean ! staff Very Friendly!“

“Service was fast and friendly. It was very clean and safe inside. The lime ice cream was yummy, right amount of sweet and tart flavor. My husband loved the Uchepos too but didn’t get pics of either because they ate too fast. I got the fresas con crema and added mango to it and it was sooo good.“

“This is awesome wholesale icecream company. Thank God it is open to the public. Good to purchase icecream for kids parties“

“Delicious frozen yogurt. Many flavors and toppings to choose from. At the time I ate it, it was about 79 cents per oz. Good to eat as a dessert. There are no seats in the area, but you can just sit at the food court or just eat while walking or standing.“

“This is a great place to get your sugar high. The staff are super kind and the flavors are wonderfully varied. The place itself only has limited seating, but it's bright and welcoming. My daughter loves coming here for their cheesecake ice cream.“

“Their service and their soft serve is amazing! I always stop by their store when I'm in the area! 😀“

“Es nieveria o neveria??? En fin lo que sea pero esta súper el servicio y agradable personal“

“I love Rita’s 🍧😋 Every every time I come to Alameda I have to stop and get me some Rita’s. 🥰👍🏽 …. So refreshing!!“

“I absolutely love this place! I had the best fish sandwich I've had in a long time. I was just driving by when I noticed this restaurant, so I decided to stop and order their fish sandwich with a meal. They give you a bag full of fries, and everything was delicious. The sandwich was great, the fish was tasty, and the sauce was perfect—no complaints whatsoever.

I'm planning to go back very soon to try everything on the menu. I still need to sample their milkshakes and ice cream, but I didn't have a chance on this visit. Overall, the food I had was stunning. The fries were fresh, hot, and crispy, and I really appreciate how generous they are with the portion. I can't wait to go back!“

“I took my nephew here because he was craving a banana split , it was very clean inside and customer service was great and employee named Rosalita serviced us. we got a banana split , 2 scoops of ice cream plus a mangonada all of it was good especially my ice cream of Ferrero rocher it was our first time there and my nephews enjoyed watching other locations in different states while I enjoyed the reggaeton music playing. We will definitely be going back soon. Definitely recommend taking kids here“

“I've never tried Yomie's other locations in Sydney and elsewhere, but I was curious about their concoction after reading reviews and drove over on a Monday around dinnertime. It shares its space with Full House Cafe, between Bank of America and H&R Block. There was absolutely no wait at all, and my drink came out in under 5 minutes. Although the prices are a little high, I personally enjoyed my original purple rice yogurt drink ($6.15, w/o tax). I tried to ask for it at 50% sweetness, based off other reviewers' opinions that the yogurt was too sweet, but the staff said it wasn't possible for this particular drink.That said, I thought the tang of the yogurt does come through (it reminds me of Yakult, but nicely thicker), and found the purple rice pleasantly toothsome and not too overcooked, as others have stated. For what it's worth, my husband isn't so much a fan of purple rice, and did not like this drink (haha). Honestly, I'm not sure the combination was a match made in heaven, as I was very aware of the yogurt flavor and texture, separate from the rice texture... but I enjoyed the snack overall! May at some point come back to try their other flavors, perhaps if there's ever a promotion...“

“I love this place so much. They have the best breakfast sandwiches and the best movies in my area. They also offer a variety of drinks such as soda tea orange juice any kind of juice coffee donuts and chips. They also offer a different variety of breakfast sandwiches. They have several tables and chairs for dine in. They have a bathroom all the way in back of the store that is pretty decent. The owners are really friendly and kind. They will make your breakfast sandwich however you asked for it.“

“This coldstone is pretty good. After eating at Don Hao, which is the best Chinese Food in the Bay Area and right next door, we ordered a Oreo inspired ice cream cake to go. It was $40 which is on the pricey side but it was so damn good! I ate like 4 servings which was a crap ton or calories but so worth it! 😉

I highly recommend this coldstone.“
