I love the spherical nature of the scoop presented to me. Incredibly talented scoopers trained by professionals. Mmmmm yumm

Quality ice cream, efficient service, and wide menu, located in a convenient location in a shopping plaza. Plenty of parking. I stopped by on a Wednesday evening around 7pm and there was no wait at all. I was served immediately. Perhaps since it was closer to closing time and on a winter evening, I noticed there were no chairs or tables set out; not a biggie since I was just getting ice cream to go anyways, but I can't comment on their ambience. I grabbed a scoop of their strawberry sorbet. Loved it! Was super delicious and creamy and not icy at all. It had the texture of soft serve, despite it not containing dairy. Flavor was very distinctly "strawberry" and didn't taste artificial at all. Loved that there were little strawberry bits which added to the flavor and texture. A single scoop is very generous which I appreciated. O'Briens has one of the most diverse offerings I've seen. They have 50 flavors of ice cream, Mexican ice cream, smoothies, sundaes, bars, sugar free ice cream, spicy treats, etc.

I love ice-cream, so any chance I get to try a new ice-cream place, I try it out. The flavors I got were very delicious, I have nothing negative to say.

Their chamoyada is so pricey compared to any other places yet they can't even fill the whole cup... I literally saw her put like 3 spoons of mango bits and a scoop and half of ice cream...

First timer. Clean space and friendly service. Killed the whole thing in 10 min with my hubby. LOL. I am not a fan of shelled chocolate on this split and would have preferred the syrup instead. Didn't know they changed that option.

I really really really wanted to like this place. I seriously bought a scoop of the rice pudding ice cream (added nuts) because I felt sorry for the girl who had absolutely no customers. The ice cream itself had hard undercooked rice pieces. I ended up throwing it away. My coworker had the sherbert colorful something. Too sweet she said. I also sampled the horchata and thought it tasted like plain vanilla. Can't see myself coming back.

The ice cream here is way lower quality compared to the original little shop in Virginia Hills. This one is more commercial regular quality, does not have unique home made or organic taste.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes kid friendly

First time was very good but my next visit wasn’t so hot. The flavor wasn’t very tasty. As I result I haven’t been back.

It has been a while since we went to Obriens but always recommended them for their variety. Saturday 12/2 my wife and I went with our son. Store was clean but they were playing rap music peppered with curse words and other very inappropriate words. We got our ice cream (they were out of rum raisin which we used to get a half gallon for our elderly neighbor) and went outside to sit down and enjoy our ice cream. As we sat down outside we realized they were piping aforementioned wholly inappropriate music outside.., it was quite surreal.
OMG!!! All those yummy flavors!!! From traditional favorites to exotics. It's a good thing they're a fair distance from where we live, or we'd look like Sumo wreztlers!

Went in Friday night with the family. Very unfriendly staff. The drive thru one in Martinez is much better.

Ice cream is over the top and the crew is always happy. A must stop.

I had the pleasure of visiting this ice cream parlor, and it was truly excellent. The flavors were incredibly rich and satisfying, with a wide range of options to choose from. It was a delightful experience.
