Chocolate peanut butter, rocky road and a sundae
Lexi S.

This is a smaller location, and we took advantage of their drive thru! Summer is about enjoying all of the cold, refreshing treats and we always partake. Love that they advertise they are gluten sensitive (not considered safe for celiac) they have dairy free options as well. The drive thru was fast and only took 5 minutes. My boyfriend and I ordered 2 scoops each, and he made his in to a sundae ( adding whipped cream, chipped nuts, chocolate sauce and a marachino cherry on top) I had the chocolate and peanut butter and rocky road. The ice cream was smooth, creamy and decadent. The price was $14 for our orders. Although costly for a few scoops of ice cream it's worth it for the value. Can't recommend this location enough. The lady that checked us out and prepared our order was friendly and lovely! Convenience, quality, and customer service 10/10

Paper in ice cream!!!!!!
Linda E.

I went to Baskin-Robbins with my daughter, and she found a huge chunk of paper inside her ice cream. When I brought it back to the counter, the employee didn't apologize once, instead, he told me I only had two options: either get a refund or get a replacement. The way he said it was very rude and dismissive. I decided to get a refund, but my daughter wanted to pick another flavor instead. He said that since it cost more, I'd have to pay the difference -- even though this whole situation was their mistake! And unsanitary food given to a child! With a foreign object found inside!!! He was so rude about it, and when he tried to process the transaction, he couldn't even figure out how to give the discount. In the end, I didn't have to pay the difference, but the whole experience was extremely unpleasant. No apology, poor customer service, and no sense of responsibility for serving ice cream with a piece of paper in it. Very disappointing experience at Baskin-Robbins!

This has got to be the BEST Baskin Robbin's I've ever been to. This feels like a classy upgraded ice cream shop. The place is clean and brightly decorated. There are all kinds of specialty items here. Dubai policy Le's (pistachio almond ice cream dipped in chocolate and topped with gold candy) and mango popsicles. Service is quick and amazing! The employees welcomed everyone and served them quickly. Super friendly! I got the banana royale (2 scoop sundae with banana). It was made perfectly. I most appreciate that the almonds on top were toasted crunchy and tasted super fresh. This told me that the store does a lot of orders wheee there is turnover in inventory. Delightful!

I want to start off by saying the staff was great. Very kind and helpful. The ambiance is casual. I went in to try the new Dubai Chocolate Ice Cream bar! It's apparently only for a limited time. I'm obsessed with anything pistachio and I've been wanting to try the Dubai candy bar so this was right up my alley. The ice cream bar has Pistachio Almond Ice Cream and a Pistachio Cream layer with Knafeh (thinly shredded pastry dough - can be a bit crunchy) dipped in chocolate. On first bite, I tasted the chocolate the most and the creaminess of the ice cream but not so much the pistachio and knafeh. I was hoping to really taste that pistachio (it was very very mild) and really taste the crunchiness of the knafeh. There was a little. The aesthetic of the bar was beautiful though, they did a great job with that. All and all I would visit Baskin again because it's classic, but I wouldn't get this Dubai chocolate bar again because the flavor just wasn't there for me. That's why I took away a star. I took away a second star because I don't visit Baskin often, but them introducing these new flavors could bring me back more!

Looks like they really take pride in their work...

I'm not sure what's going on with this specific location, but as of lately the Ice cream is always melted, the service is like your presence irritates them. This picture was taken last wed for the promotion of banana splits it was so bad I just threw it away. I can see why more people are going to Handels now.. & it's cheaper.

This location is the Baskin Robbins training center so the service is excellent . This is cleanest and friendliest Baskin- Robbins I've been to. The interior is always so clean and bright. The best part is they have a drive- thru and extended hours of operation. The location is larger than the typical BR, so they have more flavors on sale than anywhere else. They also have a patio seating area. Prices reasonable Ample parking They offer free samples

Roxanne C.

Beware, two-scoop sundae are half scoops! That's it, I'm done with this location. Ps I cannot wait for Handel's Ice Cream to open in Burbank next month!

Baskin Robbins drive thru
Peter X.

My wife and I stopped by this Baskin Robbins last night to get some late night ice cream. We were in the area which is why we came to this one. I never seen a drive thru Baskin Robbins before so it was a first for me. When we came, there was 2 cars in front of us. When it was our turn to order, I got the Oreo cookies n cream on a regular cone and my wife got her rocky road on a sugar cone. It didn't take them long to prepare our ice cream, it was ready when I pulled up to the window. I just parked in one of the parking spots near the exit of the drive thru. Our ice cream was delicious and we would come back again.

Dubai Ice cream Scam. $10 Each!
Sam S.

I never thought after going here for over 20 years I would leave a bad review. 1st off the Ice Cream texture has definitely went downhill, the scoops of Ice Cream seem to be frost bitten, the flavor felt water down, "Cherry jubilee" "Cookies N Cream" "Rocky Road" 2nd I went in there to buy a few of the new Dubai Chocolate ice cream Bars, and I almost wet my pants from laughter because I thought it was a legit Joke ! Tiny Ice Bar for $10!!!!!! EACH!!! This should definitely be against the law! Two bites! And $10!!!! Each!! 3rd Now they got young kids working who have a very rude and unprofessional attitudes! I think they need to hire New Management ASAP!

Banana Royale Ice Cream
Linda G.

It really is clean and quick service. I've been in person and it can be difficult to know where to order but they attend fast. I would say the drive thru can improve on getting the orders right I've asked a few times to have light fudge on my banana royale and they've drenched my ice cream with fudge when asked light fudge.

Dubai chocolate ice cream bar
Feliza C.

$10 for one ice cream bar -- expensive. Would I do it again? Absolutely! After seeing this all over social media I finally made my way to try it. I found it kinda cool that this Burbank location was the only one to have it, but seems like they're at many other locations now too! I called on a Wednesday evening to see if they had some left and quickly made my way. The girl who helped us out was super friendly but I didn't get her name. Though it was a little too hard to bite, it was pretty damn good!

Ayo! Okay Baskin Robbin's !!!! I see you keeping up with the trends with the famous Dubai Chocolate Bar. Love how you did your twist with an Ice Cream Bar. This location has to be the most modern Baskin Robbin's with a Drive Through and hand made Ice Cream Bars. All the other franchises need to follow this foot print before the go out of business. Anywho, I happen to work in Burbank so dropped in but yall were sold out. Placed an order and picked it up the next day. It was actually very delicious and worth the wait! The crunchy texture with the knafe and pistachio cream was amazing. I'd love to see you guys fool around and add a Biscoff version or Nutella. Staff is amazing so friendly and efficient. Inside was very clean with plenty of sitting inside and outside. I will be back, y'all need to order this Bar ASAP!

Belle D.

This location has jumped on the Dubai chocolate craze with their version of an ice cream bar! Boy oh boy, it does not disappoint, 100/10 seriously. The only thing is costs $10 per bar, is it worth it? Yes, of course haha! Also try their other new speciality ice cream bars found in the glass display case. They make seasonal ones too!

There's ice cream, a variety of different flavored fresh cookies, a rack with pies, a self grab freezer with pints of ice cream, AND a freezer with ice creams, dog treats, and chicken pot pie. There's so many options, I've been there a handful of times with my boyfriend and we've ordered something different every time and it always tastes great! There aren't any seats inside of the ice cream parlor, but there are benches right out front that you can sit on to eat your treats. Sliders makes for a fun little adventure to get some ice cream any day of the week!

I have been ruined for any other ice cream solely due to how AMAZING McConnell's is!…read more If you are like me, ice cream is a pleasure enjoyed every once in a while. I would like it every day but my doctor would probably have some words for me if I did. So when I actually do get ice cream, I want the best. And let me tell you, McConnell's is the best in my opinion. I would describe the ice cream here as being made with the freshest ingredients you could imagine. They have an assortment of interesting flavors to choose from. The staff is more than happy to offer you samples so you can pick your favorite, but always stick to my go-to flavors, which never disappoint. First is one of their original flavors, Eureka Lemon and Marionberries. It tastes like Italy in your mouth. It's sweet and light from the ice cream base but also tart and flavorful from the lemon and marionberry notes. My second flavor, and probably my number one if I had to choose, is their coffee ice cream. When I tell you, I crave this stuff, I mean it! I've had plenty of coffee ice creams in my day but this one is perfection. It has a strong coffee flavor that isn't overpowered by the sweetness and it's got little specks of coffee grind in it which is like a surprise for the palate. You wouldn't think these two flavors go well together, but they really do! I always get myself a double scoop (which is actually four scoops). So if you order a double you can actually get four different flavors. I always get it in a cup with a sugar cone on top. It's the perfect treat. They also offer some baked goods like brownies where you make sundaes with them. And while I normally think a brownie would enhance the ice cream experience, here I believe the ice cream is the star and you shouldn't ruin it! Now on to the negatives, and there aren't many. It's on the more expensive side for ice cream. But again, you are getting a premium quality product and I personally don't mind paying a little more for something I feel reflects the value. And while the ice cream here is the best, the parking is not the best. You can get lucky and find metered street parking but because there are so many popular businesses on this strip, it's usually pretty crowded. If you are willing to walk a little bit, you can usually find parking in the neighborhood behind the businesses. Or, and I didn't tell you this, you can park in the large Von's parking lot on the other side of Laurel Canyon and take the short walk over. That's actually probably the best option to get that exercise in before devouring your ice cream anyway!

Definitely worth a visit if you're looking for something sweet, especially if you want vegan options that don't compromise on taste.

As part of our mini vacay, we decided to spend time with our Baby Girl and since we had eaten…read moredinner, she planned for us to grab dessert somewhere. Prior to us meeting up with her, I requested that the place she takes us to has to have ice cream. She took us to Magpies Softserve and besides satisfying my request for ice cream, Magpies also serves delicious softserve pies. The softserve desserts here are en fuego and customer service was friendly and positive, but space to lounge is minimal and the two softserve sample per person is untenable. Magpies is located in Silver Lake Los Angeles specifically on the road that leads to Griffith Park Observatory. If you finished a workout at the Observatory, driving down to Magpies would be a great reward especially if it's a warm Los Angeles day. The shop is located on the corner of Griffith Park and Hyperion specifically within Merrill Plaza. Other tenants in the plaza are Meze, Jersey Mike's, and Postalworks. There's a private parking lot with tight spaces and I got nervous thinking a car was going to hit me as they were backing up. Magpies is a small softserve shop with no seating inside except for a standup slate of wood to eat on. There are two outdoor benches you can sit on and eat your desserts. It's bright inside the store; there's an Andy Warhol inspired art piece showing a variety of softserve pie slices; a large piece of artwork hangs on one of the walls with the business name in neon and softserve ice cream cones depicted in what looks like graffiti; and the register counter and workspace island have a colorful mosaic design. The gentleman behind the counter and who I believe was his female manager had a positive disposition and provided friendly customer service. When I perused their menu, I knew that I was going to order their softserve, but there were 8 flavors and I couldn't tell from the name of the flavor whether I wanted to order it. I asked the gentleman if I could taste several of their flavors. I asked to taste date shake, corn almond, malted milk shake, and sweet cream. After I tried my third flavor, the gentleman politely said that they only allow two samples per customer. I honestly don't feel that's a smart business restriction because customers can't tell from what's listed on their menu what a flavor tastes like. I was slightly taken aback when he mentioned this restriction to me, but he allowed me to sample more flavors stating that he didn't tell me ahead of time about this restriction. I've been to Salt and Straw, Baskin Robbins, and other ice cream shops and not once did they tell me there was a limit to the samples I requested. After my samples, I decided on a regular cup that comes with two flavors and I selected corn almond and sweet cream with toasted almonds as a topping for an additional charge. The corn almond tasted like Frosted Flakes and the sweet cream combined well together. They were both creamy, luscious, and the toasted almonds added texture to what was already a delightful dessert. I thought both flavors were really tasty. For the health conscious, some of the softserve flavors are vegan and gluten free. My daughter has not steered us wrong with her restaurant choices and tonight was no exception. Her choice of Magpies Softserve for dessert was a Mag-nificent selection and I'd love to try their nutter butter softserve pie the next time we visit.
