“I was visiting a friend in the East Bay and craving some authentic Brazilian açaí when I found this place on Yelp. The food is phenomenal! I got the very berry açai bowl and an empada, and I could definitely tell that the ingredients are high quality. Every mouthful was delicious, and even the 15 oz size is a huge portion. The bowl it’s served in is deep, so it feels like a lot. My friend got a coxinha, which was just as yummy as the other two. It was also twice the size of coxinhas I’ve seen sold at other places. Impressive! The staff are so friendly and accommodating, and the atmosphere of the café is warm and cozy. Highly recommend!“
“You will not regret going to Clancy's. My family have been eating ice cream from Clancy's for over 20yrs and have never been disappointed. They have a great variety of flavors to offer and the scoops are much larger than most. The staff is friendly and serve with a smile. No place to sit inside or outside but it's worth the trip!“
“I absolutely love this place and their ice cream! I was looking for some koolfi in the Bay and stumbled across Koolfi Creamery, and I’ve been hooked ever since. Their Bombay Butterscotch flavor is my favorite, but every flavor I’ve tried has been amazing. Highly recommended.“
“I am not Vegan and these are so good!!! I picked these up for my boyfriend's family who are vegan. The apple fritter was definitely my favorite, but they are all yummy. The girl working was very patient and friendly when helping me choose which ones to get. She also threw in some extra donut holes! The cinnamon one everyone raves about was sold out when I went around 11am. I'll definitely be back to bring them to the next family gathering. 10/10!!“
“Definitely prefer this place compared to its colorful competitor down the road. Aguas taste natural with none of that artificial color and flavoring going on (Highly recommend the Agua fresca de Plátano) and the variety of Antojitos are just as good. It is just a swell place overall with a humble and helpful staff. Will be coming back and telling friends about it!“
“Cute little bakery, and the cupcakes are amazing! I have never tasted better. The 'better for you' cupcakes use almond flour, less sugar, and taste better than traditional cupcakes. It is a nice place to sit and enjoy a conversation. The owner is very cheerful and friendly.“
“This place has the best desserts in this area in my opinion. These treats are very delicious as they are not too sweet and perfectly subtle on their flavors. This is the new go to spot for our family when we want something to hit the spot. Service is super friendly and quick. If you’ve never tried these kind of desserts, now is the time.“
“We love the Darkest Chocolate here. This has become our sort celebratory go-to place to reward our kids for when they are their best behavior.Vegetarian options: Their Darkest Chocolate ice cream is Vegan. Not sure if there are other vegan or vegetarian options.“
“Post lunch milk shake! Clancy's is closed on Wednesdays, and I wasn't going to be denied! We swung over to Loards and got our fix. The shop is in front of their production facility. There's a small parking lot and plenty of street parking. Not sure what happens at night though. We were greeted from the back room as we entered. Apparently, the person who works the counter has other responsibilities as well. She came out very quickly, was friendly and asked how she could help us. The shop is a throwback to ice cream parlors of olde. There was an open case with sodas and a coffin case with plenty of "pints" & "quarts". The flavor menu was on a board above and behind the counter. The service freezer was a older type design where each rectangle and two doors that were hinged and could be opened separately or completely removed from the opening. The doors were not see-through unlike a more contemporary ice cream parlor. She got a Champagne Sherbet Freeze which she thoroughly enjoyed. It started with a new can of Club Soda, the remainder was presented to us when the drink was completed. I got a Coffee Shake. It was all ice cream, no milk. Probably thick enough to stay in the cup upside down and thin enough to go through a straw. Not a bad deal for $5.95. Definitely worth a visit when in the area and craving ice cream! Next time, a Banana Shake with Banana!“
“Workers here are awesome! Placed an order for delivery for which there was a problem with (door dash driver of course/no fault of Crumbl what so ever) and they took care of immediately and were in communication with me through it all. Amazing customer service. Cookies were amazing too!“
“Review from 4/11/24: My cousin and I took my one year old son and he loved the orange cream and sour watermelon Italian ice. The guy working was nice and let my son try the banana Italian ice, but he did not like it. My cousin ordered mango and passion fruit Italian ice. The passion fruit wasn't very tasty, but the mango was delicious.“
“Highly recommend! This is located right next to McDonald's. There's is a small parking lot right in front but we've never had issues not being able to find a spot. They let you try any of the flavors you want and they're all so so good! We love coming here for ice cream and the agua frescas. The employees here are incredibly friendly too and have always felt very welcoming. It's such a pleasant experience all around. They have the best fruit flavors compared to major ice cream chains.“
“The tacos were very delicious, they have a delicious seasoning, we ordered trays to take away for 200 tacos (catering) and the service was excellent, they gave us our trays with meat, tortillas, sauces, vegetables and all the people were delighted with the flavor.I also tried the mangoneada, delicious, I will definitely return to continue trying the extensive menu they have.“

“Love this place. The manager is very nice. They're one of a few places that still make frozen banana dipped in chocolate and nuts. They also make excellent pies, especially mud pies. They have delicious assortment of chocolate. They even have sugar free chocolate. Must try if you haven't had it. ‼ They'll be close for renovation from Xmas till March 2024. I ordered my mudpie for Xmas dessert. Not sure what I'm going to do with them closed for 3 months.“

“The peanut butter fudge deluxe sundae with just plain Vanilla ice cream is the best peanut butter sundae I've ever had, and I've tried many others. Clean shop and the gentleman who helped me was nice and smartly put my two items in a bag to make them easier to carry. Above and beyond service in my opinion. Most servers just make you figure something out yourself. Check them out!“
“Ube ice cream down the street from my house?!! YES PLEASE!! Some of our favorite scoops include, strawberry brownie, strawberry pop tart, blueberry pie crumble, coffee flake, Cookie Monster, and horchata! We love you Milk and Cookie Bar!!!!!“
“The lady owner is a very nice lady who can speak both Spanish and English. Ordered the tamales were pretty tasty and soft. However, I cannot tell the difference between the chicken and the pork since they're both shredded with sauce lol. One is green sauce and one is red sauce. I think the red sauce is probably the chicken and the green sauce is pork? The cheese and jalapeno was pretty good too. I asked for sauce on the side because I like to get wet with my tamale. Will try the mangonada next time. $3.50 each tamale, not too bad“
“I honestly can't say too much about how good the frozen yogurt is; it's pretty much just like any other Yogurtland location (and if you haven't tried one yet you're missing out). Your experience will definitely vary depending on what flavors are available and which you choose. Not much to say about service but the seating area was kind of small.“
“My daughter and I were hankering for a little bit of ice cream after lunch and walked around the corner and there was Tucker's ice cream. It was a little harder to find and I thought because the front door is in a bit from the street. Entering there was a typical sour milk smell, but we know that's why it is with ice cream. The entry, and the premises is very nice, and the scooper was a friendly fellow. They also serve other things besides ice cream. We shared a double scoop of coffee, brittle, and Heath crunch. The coffee was really good but the Heath bar crunch was a lot more ice cream and not very many Heath bar bits. The double scoop with tip came out to nine dollars. We sat and ate our ice cream. The ice cream is really creamy.“
“I visited this location that is situated in a courtyard off of Broadway in uptown Oakland, CA. This location is an upscale ice cream truck on wheels. It was well into the evening and close to closing when I arrived to see there were no customers in line and the courtyard was empty. The attendant was very friendly and engaging and I think our conversation carried on longer than I expected because we both realized we had ties to the Washington, D.C. area. I appreciated his customer service. The ice cream was good. It is on the same level of similar ice cream shops that attempt to distinguish themselves by having unique flavors and ice cream concepts. Overall a good sweet treat experience. On this occasion I ordered a brownie sundae with cookies and cream ice cream. I was a bit indecisive with the ice cream selection as I originally wanted to order a two-scoop cone, however in a rush I didn't take my time in selecting a more traditional ice cream flavor to accompany the chocolate brownie with chocolate fudge. But it was still delicious. Give them a try.“
“I love this froyo spot! There are a ton of flavors, my personal favorite being cheesecake (bonus points if you add cheesecake bits.) If I remember correctly, its $0.80 cents for one pound. There are barely any tables indoors, but the place isn't usually crowded.“
“A classic no frills fro-yo place. We stopped by Yogurt Shack on a Saturday night and it was packed. Looks like a popular hangout for students in the area. The yogurt and toppings were self serve. I was impressed with the flavors and creaminess of the yogurt. I enjoyed the peanut butter, chocolate and coffee.“
“Came here on a Friday afternoon after I picked up the boys. Boys wanted some ice cream on a hot day and I had a craving for some boba. We ordered through the window. Kids got some Thai tea ice cream and I ordered boba. Everything came out very quickly. The staff here is very nice and courteous. If you guys are around the area and need something sweet please come by here and try them out“
“This place is a one stop shop. Great small selection of food items but a big desert selection that's so delicious!!! Great costumer service, my daughter and i wanted to eat our food first and then enjoy some ice cream and we felt welcomed the entire time.“
“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.“

“The girls wanted to come back here again. I noticed a yelp treat so I didn't mind coming back just days after too.I wanted to try strawberry Italian ice with the ice cream but no strawberry still.I was lucky to find street parking right in front but a lot of parking is available in the back.I would say this place is never without a customer but the times we came wasn't crazy busy just busy enough to know there would always be someone looking for a treat.“
“We love coming here during the summer. The burgers are made to order, the buns are soft and makes the burger super yummy. ? Top it off with some soft serve with fun toppings. ??? this place has indoor seating and one table outside. you can order from a window outside or at the counter.“
“We arrived just after they had closed and the man was so kind he let us in and said we could order anything although you could clearly see they were all cleaned up. He even went as far as to make me a fresh lemonade with chia seeds. While he was making it his daughter and another woman arrived surprised to see customers given the time and they too were too kind. The daughter quickly jumped behind the counter and offered to open up all the ice cream lids to see if any looked more delicious. Customer service amazing, very clean, DELICIOUS ice cream and the prices compared to other similar locations are unbeatable. Parking is a little tricky but oh so worth it! Try the mango and maracuya you won't regret it. Will be returning to satisfy these cravings for sure! Thank you guys!“
“I had a passion fruit tea with boba and it was delicious with the fresh slices of bite size peaches and fresh strawberries I've passed this place for years and they always make the food court smell good with the crepes people always order . Almost all the places are closed in the food court now I noticed today , hadn't been to the mall in a long time but it's not far from Charlie's subs and it was delicious I will be going back n“
“What a gem!! Cal State East Bay students....go here! Desserts are amazing. Fresada is amazing for strawberry aficionados. Then there is the tried and true Mangonada. They have an assortment of ice cream flavors made in-house, I will try the fruity pebbles and cookie monster next time for sure. My sweet tooth was satisfied =). If you are craving something more savory, Elote with hot cheetos....what?!!! They need more advertising (maybe add sandwich boards like Fresh Fuel does near campus?) because once you know, you know.“
“I tried their seasonal pistachio flavor and my partner got the mint chocolate chip flavor. Mint chocolate chip was really great! I love the many flecks of chocolate vs. big chunks of chocolate. Pistachio was ok, it had whole pieces of pistachio, but I think mint chocolate chip won out here. Will definitely be back!“
“Great place to go workers are so nice I got a mangonada very delicious had problem asking for one of the items the young girl attending me help me on how to saying also describing what it had at the end it was very delicious would recommend this place for anyone out there trying to have a good snack for friends and family“
“This was our first time in today and the people who are working were so friendly and even gave us a waffle to try, the drinks were delicious, the chairs and atmosphere were comfy and relaxing, this will definitely become a staple for us in the neighborhood.“
“I recently went to the alameda loards, and I knew it was gonna be good when I was the line out the door. I think what I like most about this spot is the massive variety of interesting flavors. My boo got the ube flavor, and I did a milk shake with both ube and pandan. It was delicious and there were little chewy bits of ube and pandan in it, so you know it's legit. I noticed they had some dairy free options too which I think is cool.“
“Delicious + fresh fruit!!! I wish I could have gotten a picture while it was in the bag (before I put it onto a plate at home)When I came in, I saw the cash only sign. I was super bummed, but the kind woman in the front allowed me to Zelle her!! Not sure if it was because she was the owner though so next time I come back I'll be prepared with cash. The Tostilocos were $8 which is the average anywhere you get these. This place should have 5 stars. Yummy antojitos and clutch for when you can't find our hard working churro man/woman walking around Pregnancy craving satisfied!!“
“Surprised my kids with donuts from a place we have never tried and it didn't disappoint! Fresh yummy donuts! Lady who helped me was super nice. She even gave us extra little donuts when she found out we've always wanted to try. Kids used to go to a school nearby. Place was organized and clean.“
