We came by on a hot Saturday afternoon for some dessert and to take advantage of the buy one, get one 50% off small waffle cone promotion featured on their Instagram. We came by with our family and friends to just enjoy some ice cream. Of course, we had to take our time to decide which flavors to get, how much ice cream to get, etc. So we let some groups that eventually came go ahead and order while we were still making some serious ice cream decisions. Well, when our group was finally ready to order, the poor girl working was probably over her job or over the heat, as she was the only one taking orders, scooping the ice cream, and then handing the precious goods to customers. Anyways, when it was our turn, she just had the most unpleasant look, I tried to not take it personally, but when I was asking her question about the promotion going on, she just replied with, 'what do you mean?' with an annoyed look on her face and it's not what she said, it's just the way she said it and how she looked. Again, I think she was just tired, and the heat was probably getting to her. Anyways, we were able to place the order and eventually got our ice creams. We had 2 little toddlers with us, and since they're both under 40", they were able to get their baby cones for free. They chose strawberry flavor and birthday cake. We also got some Italian ice, Graham Central Station, vanilla, coffee, and dark chocolate. The small waffle cone came with 2 scoops of ice cream. I like how they add the white plastic around your cone for sanitary reasons and to help with your ice cream dripping! And trust me, you're going to need that little plastic around your cone! Their ice cream melts really fast on a hot, sunny, Californian day. Also, a quick note: parking was fine, as there were plenty of spaces in the plaza, but it is an outdoor seating area.

Located in the Chino Spectrum, next to Dono sushi, you'll find Bruster's. This location is a walk-up window, with a couple benches for outdoor dining. With so many rotating, fresh in-store, varieties of REAL ice cream, I opted for a single scoop of the NO sugar added coffee. The ice cream was rich, creamy, "not too sweet"and satisfying. I love how they offer sugar free, non dairy, and fat free options. If ice cream isn't what you're craving, they also have sorbet and a variety of sherbets/ices so there is something for everyone! The employees are welcoming and friendly. Don't hesitate to ask for a sample if you are unsure of a specific flavor. Highly recommend and will definitely be coming back!

Coffee scoop and pineapple coconut waffle cone

If you're looking for a sweet treat Bruster's a great option. It's affordable and they serve you a hefty scoop. I would say it's very close to Baskin Robbins in taste and vibe except there's no indoor seating . Service was quick and fast and there was no line when we went. I got the coffee ice cream which reminded me of Baskin Robbins jamoca. Overall i would go here if i was in the area and craving an ice cream.

I found my new ice cream spot. Amazing homemade ice cream and homemade waffle cone/bowl. It's located in the Grand spectrum marketplace on the same side of the plaza of 99 ranch, Ross and Target. Plenty of parking space. I came on a Saturday at 11am during grand opening wknd and there was no line. Staff were really friendly and patience, I was able to sample 3 flavors since there was no line. she recommended the Graham Grand central (graham ice cream based w/ graham cracker and chocolate chips chunks). SOOOOOOO GOOD! it's an unique flavor that is not overpowering, very smooth flavor. I also got the banana pudding which was delicious. It has banana pudding chunks that adds a nice touch to it. I came during the grand opening wknd that offered $4 specials for a small waffle cone/bowl (2 scoops). I got the waffle bowl so it's less messy. Best waffle cone/bowl I've had, nice crunch and flavor. It didn't get soggy and still has a nice crunch. It's so worth paying extra for it. Overall, I love the ice cream flavor and texture. It's very smooth and creamy , it didn't melt as fast since it's a creamy texture. Will def come back to try other flavors.

This new Bruster's ice cream was opened about a month ago.... Ordered: Pumpkin Cheesecake with Graham Banana Cream Pie Both were delicious, soft and creamy. Purchased to go pint: Pumpkin Cheesecake with Graham Vegan Cinnamon Apple. Shop was clean and nice inside. Dining is available outside only. Friendly staff. Fast service. Definitely will be back.

What a delightful experience! Stopped by for Bruster's grand opening weekend and got the $4 small waffle cone with Brookie and chocolate peanut butter buckeye ice cream. I personally loved the latter flavor and the Brookie used real brownies and cookies in the mix. The scoops were generous and it was a great value. I also loved the plastic holder to hold the cone in case the ice cream melts. FYI If you sign up for the rewards program, you qualify for $3 off your next treat!

Non-dairy with oat milk: Strawberry banana (bottom) and Chocolate (top).

Came here after having dinner at Wang Cho's. This location is a walk-up window ice cream shop with a few tables on the side of the building. The line wasn't too bad since there were at least 3 windows serving. The issue I run into sometimes at ice cream shops are the limited non-dairy options. Most places only offer sorbet (which Bruster's also have). This one had quite a few ice cream flavors made with oat milk. Do keep in mind their online menu will differ from their walk-up menu. Small cup comes with two scoops. Flavors from the Non-Dairy menu: Strawberry Banana made with oat milk (bottom) and Chocolate made with oat milk (top).

Plastic on the ice cream

I really enjoy coming here for ice cream, the flavors are always rich, creamy, and so satisfying. The staff are helpful, and patient, especially when you're trying to decide or sample new flavors, which I truly appreciate. The only downside during my recent visit was that I found a small piece of plastic in my ice cream. I'm thankful I noticed it instead of my child. I'm sharing this feedback with care because I know how much kids (and families) love this place, and I hope it helps the team be extra cautious during preparation. Overall, it's still a spot I enjoy, and I appreciate the great service, just hope a bit more attention can be given to quality control moving forward.

Bruster's is a new ice cream place that opened just this Thursday. They serve homemade ice cream. They offer a variety of premium ice cream, sorbets, sherbets, non dairy with oat milk, Italian ices and no sugar added and fat free ice cream. They also make drinks and splits. Tonight the wife had a scoop of coffee ice cream with chocolate chip and one scoop of graham central station. I had two scoops of the no sugar added chocolate fudge ripple in a waffle bowl. Ice creams were delicious. The wife's new favorite is the Graham Central Station. I like it too. They have a counter were you walk up to order and they have seats and tables outside for you to eat. I would highly recommend and we will go back for sure.

Best ice cream you'll ever find. Truly a gem in this town. Rewards are so worth it and something for your pup!

Brusters is located in the Grand Spectrum plaza, closer to the 99 ranch side. My husband and I shared a small waffle bowl, it came with 2 scoops and was more than enough for us with generous scoops! We got Cookies and Cream and Raspberry Cheesecake which was so yummy. Also LOVE that you can ask for a little ice cream for you pup too! :) The ice cream here is so soft and creamy! Can't wait to be back to try more flavors.

So delicious! Compared to Handel's...homemade fresh cones and ice creams. They give samples and let you do 2 different flavors for the small (unlike Handel's). They also have specials like today and a loyalty program. They have a baby cone for kids under 4 feet and pup cups too! I was really impressed they're celebrating Diwali with Faluda and Tutti Frutti flavors! The cones came with a cool holdetrllr with moat too! These should be everywhere!

Had to try Chino's newest ice cream shop and it was excellent! Very much like the other popular ice cream shop. This Bruster's is a new location, it was busy but the polite and efficient staff took care of business. A small is two scoops, Medium is three scoops and so on. Numerous flavors making it difficult to make a selection. You order and pay at a walk up window, in this respect it's very much like Handel's. The outside was clean and free of debris. There are a few tables around the corner from where you order so you can enjoy your tasty treat.

I also asked them to put the condensed milk on the side which was perfect as the shaved ice itself already had plenty of flavor so I didn't even need the condensed milk.

Seating is a little limited though and it can definitely get packed really fast, especially at night time. They also have a lot of different things on the menu besides bingsoo such as drinks, halo halo, taiyaki, and other desserts too. Service was really fast and parking was really easy as well!

They offer several fillings to choose from, and I went with the custard for a more traditional flavor. Big mistake only getting one because it was SO good. Definitely should've ordered more. We also got the banana crunch bingsu with granola crunch, and the texture of the ice is completely different from the snow cones you'd get at a carnival. Think soft, pillowy, melt-in-your-mouth ice that's super light and refreshing. You really just have to try it for yourself. The seating area is on the smaller side, but the service was friendly and welcoming. Will definitely be coming back!

While I was trying to focus on some work, one of the employees from the counter sat with a friend near the cashier area and they were speaking very loudly.

It felt uncomfortable and unprofessional to overhear that kind of conversation while sitting in the shop. I hope the staff receive some basic customer service and professionalism training, as the atmosphere made it difficult to enjoy the space.

Upon entry, I observed some tables were not wiped down. Chairs were not organized. Cleanliness and organization is huge in my book. They had 3 to 4 people standing around waiting for the next order. One of them should have come out and clean the tables. First impression matters folks. Hence, 4 stars and I haven't even tasted the desserts and drinks LOL. Anyway, lots of inside seating. I didn't walk towards the back of this dessert place. I mainly stayed in the front since I ordered to-go. I saw two statues of a man and a woman near the entrance to the right. At first, I thought they were husband and wife, but it turns out they are brother and sister. Fu siblings from Taiwan who are the creators of Meet Fresh. There is a beautiful story behind their humble beginnings. I saw one self-ordering kiosk, but ordering can be done at the counter as well. I chose the kiosk since there were people at the counter. I got 4 drinks and 2 desserts. 1 Wintermelon Tea - too sweet! 1 Strawberry Green Tea - okay! 1 Milk Tea w/ Boba + Lychee - perfect! 1 Boba Milk Tea - fine! 1 Hot Red Bean Soup Signature - delicious with lots of good ingredients! 1 Icy Grass Jelly Signature - as expected... it's just grass jelly with taro balls! Eat them while it's fresh. Otherwise, taro balls will harden. Overall experience was okay. Young staff was okay. I only gave this review a 4 stars because of the red bean soup. Otherwise, it would have been a 3 stars. This is actually my 2nd or 3rd Meet Fresh encounter. They seem to be popping up more and more. Good spot for delightful drinks and desserts!
