50 Best Ice Cream Shops near Sierra Madre

“I had a (vegan) chocolate sorbet that was the best vegan dessert I’ve ever had. You don’t know it’s vegan. It holds up as a fabulous chocolate dessert even if it wasn’t vegan. It’s like rich dark chocolate mousse that’s almost frozen….smooth but slightly “icy”.“

“Delicious ice cream, with top quality ingredients! Sizes are bigger than other nearby shops and it even includes toppings!“

“I am not sure why 626 Ice Cream has such bad reviews.

I had heard lots about this place, but due to them mostly being open on weekday nights, didn't have a chance to try them until yesterday afternoon.

I enjoyed the calming ambiance. Everything seemed randomly arranged, however it went well with the area.

The ice cream served here is very delicious and creamy, so if you like that type of style, you're better off coming here. I got the condensed milk and black sesame flavors with sprinkles, Gummy bears and mochi. Their mochi bin was nearly empty, and I discovered why when I ate my dessert. I mean, the other two toppings were also tasty and I'm glad I didn't do just mochi, but mochi had to be the best out of the three toppings I had.

Would come back if I were in the area!“

“Staff are awesome!! Yogurt is very yummy!“

“Ice Cream is always so good here. Prompt service, very nice employees. Their waffle bowl could be a little more flavorful but that’s a personal preference. Got their hot fudge sundae waffle bowl with banana cream pie and vanilla ice creams and ate every bit. Definitely recommend a stop here“

“Best handmade ice cream ever!!!! Love the Taro and Ferrero Roche ice cream“

“This place is a must stop if you are within an hour’s drive. Fire Bunny is sweet milk drink with creme brûlée topping. And Thai iced tea soft serve served with fresh hot boba?! Yes please!“

“This ice cream shop is a pop-up (probably permanent pop-up) in The Shops at Santa Anita. I loved the free sample they offered! The server is so generous in offering the samples. The croffle is the best we’ve had for a long time, warm and so yummy. I especially enjoyed the matcha and hojicha, both made with ceremonial-grade tea. The ice cream did not disappoint me either. Totally recommend for sugar craves!“

“Sweet girl working the booth and providing excellent service. The soft serve here is absolutely delicious and always hits the spot, and the prices are very reasonable. Parking can be a bit of a hassle, but the tasty treats make it worth it!“

“The bolo bao ice cream sandwich was the bomb! I had it with ube ice cream. The garlic fries - lots of fresh garlic with a side of bomb lemon aoili and house sauce! The best! Passionfruit green tea was perfect for the hot weather! So cute inside too! It's a smaller space and a one man show. Everything is made fresh so please be patient - it's worth the wait! Great service! It's a hidden gem to the right of BofA in the plaza. — at CrispyandFluffed.“

“I had a banana split with 3 different flavors of ice cream it was so yummy fresh ice cream I live in west Covina I'd drive to fosselmans just to have an ice cream“

“Went here after going to Descano to see the tulips. Ice cream is different. Everything is Original. You won’t fine their flavors anywhere else. Nightly recommend going if your in the Pasadena area.“

“This Taiyaki + Ice Cream place is at the level of other giants such as SomiSomi. The soft serve has a perfect texture (I tried the Pure Milk flavor with a Taiyaki on top, the Taiyaki being filled with Nutella), the service is quick and efficient, and the store was crowded when my two friends and I went on a Saturday evening. The ambiance is great too, there are so many pictures showing what the options are like, and there are clearly-illustrated menus spread throughout the restaurant. The toppings are available for the customers to grab and add to their ice cream as they wish, and everything, from the Oreo crumbs to the Banana chips are great. You can truly feel that every single item in this store is, indeed, made With Love.“

“Home made Tacos home made ice cream. What else can a growing boy ask for? Lol“

“Sus nieves rikisimas los tostilocos para chuparse los dedos se las recomiendo!“

“I went in on Tuesday, the new owners were in back of me. I was telling the cashier how disappointed my daughter was, we came in on monday and it was closed. Well the new owners, gave me a couple cookies for free. That was so awesome of them. My daughter was so happy and she said" Thank you so much!"“

“Hello Gelato stands out among the many frozen sweet shops in Old Town Pasadena. The flavors taste exactly like they're supposed to, rich and delicious. The texture is dense and smooth. I like chocolate and mint chip, and my husband swears by the stracciatelli. Bonus: you'll often meet the owner himself scooping behind the counter. A great little local business!“

“It's one of my favorite locations of Afters. This place has nice decor outside. It's all outdoor seating. You walk up to the window and there's a person there to take your order. This location only takes credit card and tap (Apple/ Google pay). No cash.

There are a lot of good flavors, but I prefer the Ube brownie. I have yet to try their sweet bun. I like the waffle cone, but just like any waffle cone, they're messy to eat because they leak at the bottom. I'm not sure if they charge, but I saw a few people ask for an additional cup with their regular cake cone.

When we arrived there wasn't a line, but there was after we ordered. Lol. Thank goodness we got there before the wave of people came. Lots of parking around the place also.“

“I'm in love with the chocolate chip cookies here they are so delicious I can't explain the level. lol the ice cream is amazing! especially the cookie monster! heavenly delight!“

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

“One of the best ice cream spots in LA! They have so many options and the best part is so all are inspired by different countries. The staff is also very friendly and accommodating. I tried a range of different flavors but went black sesame cookies and cream, olive oil salted date, and Japanese Neapolitan. Would definitely recommend visiting and definitely coming back!“

“Just not ice cream. They actually have a lot of snacks from japan. Don't let the metal fencing out front discourage you. Keep in mind you are going to a warehouse so there are no thrills or frills. They allow you to buy in bulk so if you are having a party this is the spot.“

“Love their ice cream, aguas frescas and especially their crepes 😋😋😋😋“

“Oakobing is a must-try for dessert lovers! After seeing rave reviews across social media, we decided to check it out on a weeknight. It was quiet since we visited late, but that gave us the perfect chance to enjoy our dessert without the usual crowds. We ordered the green tea shaved ice with tiny mochis, and it was delicious. The texture reminded us of Taiwan night market treats, although this is a Korean dessert spot. The shaved ice was delicate and fluffy, offering a light, refreshing sweetness.

The place itself is small but has a bright, modern vibe, and the service was quick and friendly. There’s paid parking available on the side, which is convenient enough. Oakobing specializes in Korean-style shaved ice (bingsoo) with many flavors and milkshake options to choose from. The portions are just right for sharing, making it the perfect spot for a sweet indulgence with friends. If you’re looking for a unique dessert experience, Oakobing won’t disappoint!“

“Love their sandwiches! Delicious!!“

“Highly recommend Baskin Robbins for your next cake order. Cakes taste amazing! Spoke to Brian, goes above and beyond to make your experience the best
Everyone at my baby shower loved the cake, were looking for seconds. My daughters bday was also another hit with their cakes yum! All the kids loved the jack skellington design ??
I will definitely continue ordering cakes here in the future“

“I recently came into the shop and was surprised by how fast they attended me! I would assume cutting fruit to the order would take longer, but they made it look easy. The crepes were delicious! Forsures will be having them when I go back to El Monte! 8.1.23“

“Loved this place while living in Monrovia. Please look into placing one in Palmdale/Lancaster area❤️🥰❤️“

“We used Doc Popcorn for our Mickey & Friends themed 1st birthday party and it worked out perfectly. Tamer was easy to work with, super helpful, highly communicative, and hand delivered the popcorn all the way to the west side! Would 100% use them again for a party/event!“

“Came here with my wife and got yogurt. Tart was not working so the girl kindly got it working for me. I left a $2 tip. The owner comes in at the end of her shift, takes the money from the can . I may have mistaken, but that was dirty imop. Give the tips to the workers..
Edit.. My apologies. Hopefully they have a special blend of yogurt for those so inclined to steal tips from workers. ?“

“Dippin dots is so fun. A great twist on ice cream that is like little ice bubbles popping and melting in your mouth. Very easy to eat and enjoy, the texture is so amusing. They have a nice selection of different flavors. The cookies and cream one was very delicious and sweet. Great spot for a quick dessert after eating.“

“I believe yesterday was their grand opening so today I made my way over there to show my support. I filled up my water jug (75. cents) and I got myself a delicious raspado de tamarindo ($5). They have dairy and water based paletas, smoothies, aguas frescas, chips, thrifty ice cream, and they make sandwiches too!“

“The Best Ice Cream I’ve Ever Had – A Must-Try Experience!

Hands down, this is the best ice cream I’ve ever had. Every scoop is handmade with exceptional care and it shows in both the flavor and texture—absolutely smooth, rich, and bursting with quality.

The ingredients taste incredibly fresh, and the attention to detail in each flavor is truly impressive. It’s clear that they take pride in crafting a premium product. You can taste the difference.

On top of the amazing ice cream, the service was equally outstanding—friendly, knowledgeable staff who make you feel welcome the moment you walk in.

If you’re serious about your ice cream, this place is a must-visit. Truly next-level in every way!“

“todo todo lo que venden ahí está muy rico las nieves de garrafa las paletas los cócteles de fruta en si todo lo recomiendo y muy limpio tienen todo“

“Went in with my daughter on Wednesday afternoon 5/29 and the girl helping us did such a great job. She was inviting, engaging, and had a positive attitude. Most importantly she was consistently like that with all the customers that came in. Her co worker was just as efficient. Nice job team. Keep it up. Good service is a lost art form.“

“Very delicious the mangoneada and fruit bionico 😋😋🤫“

“This place has by far the best esquites I’ve ever had, they’re nice and al dente and the flavors are so well balanced
their handmade ice cream is amazing in the summer as well,
This place is a Such a gem 🙌🏻 the owners are very sweet and great at their craft“

“We got the ice cream cake with chocolate cake and chocolate chip and mint chip ice cream. The ice cream cake was good and fresh. The whip cream wasn’t that good but every else was good. We got great service. Everyone enjoyed the birthday cake. Ten out of ten recommend. They have plenty of parking and no public restroom.“

“Excellent customer service has a variety of options to be honest I was skeptical at first but once I came in I realized it was super clean and they were really nice to me and they have options that a lot of stores around here don't have for example I was looking for one of those fruit stand guys and I didn't find any today because the last time I went to one this guy had no mask I don't think he washed his hands it looks really non-hygienic and it was kind of expensive here it was cheaper than that guy and they were very hygienic and it was such a nice story to come to I would recommend it to everybody around here“

“I've been going here for 15 years+. They have the best tasting water. I live a hour away and we moved in 2019 and that never stopped us from going. The owner is super nice as well is her daughter. I love getting my iced tea there as well.“

“Wonderful place for everyone to gather“

“I love yogurt. and they offer variety of flavors and toppings“

“Best Boba ever me and my parents loved the taste it was so yummy 10/10 Thank you :3“
