As one of the longest standing businesses in the Marketplace, this particular Cold Stone is great and has many fond memories associated with it. My family and I recently picked up an Oreos Ice Cream Cake for a birthday celebration. They're ice cream cakes are reliably in stock for super easy, same day pick up which makes them perfect for gatherings and celebrations. read more

This is the closest ice cream shop near me. I always come with my baby sister, it's our go to for a sweet treat. I never had a bad experience here. I think their smoothies and milkshakes are the best. My sister got the mint mint chocolate chocolate chip milkshake with whip cream and I got their strawberry banana smoothie. I hate mint flavored stuff but it really good. Next time I come, I'll be buying their cakes or ice cream sandwiches ! read more

We probably visit Cold Stone Creamery at least once a year these days, when my boys were little we visited often. Not a lot has changed over the past 10yrs or longer at this place. The inside still looks the same as it has looked for all these years. On my recent visit, I did notice the one change the I remember which is singing. Back in the day, I remember walking in and all the employees would be rocking out and singing a cappella versus now they have the music playing overhead. Ice cream quality is still great. It doesn't taste generic and the toppings are great. I love how they make everything fresh for you instead of how most ice cream places have them already made in their containers. read more

Just the friendly experience..on a rush for birthday cake I thought it was just a buy ..but they even offered to put a message on it..it was something I wasn't expecting..so from a stress to a happy relief..Will be back here again and thank you Michael for making it a great experience and stress free. read more

I dont know why, but I wanted to try Coldstone out. There was a line when we got there and with only 2 people working, it took a while for us to get our ice cream. Staff wasn't friendly, but they weren't rude. They were non-stop busy, so of course they're not going to be chatting it up with each other or us customers. My husband and I got a scoop of coffee lovers only, and it was just alright. We both love coffee, so we thought we'd try theirs, but Dewars coffee and Sweet Fix Creamerys coffee is far better. I had a taste of my daughters ice creams, and personally, it was alright as well. The waffle cones didn't make the ice cream any better either. If we are ever craving ice cream and wanna splurge, then Dewars it is! read more

What I ordered vs what I received. I went to The Marketplace location thinking they would do a good job. It's just a an ice cream, it's not that serious, but the store looks run down. There were no other customers when I walked in and they had three employees working. It was messy on the floor with napkins on the ground and the work area where the staff (three young teens) prepare the items looked very unkempt and not clean. IMO, this place needs some serious work if they want people to return. read more

I have major concerns! No hair aprons or gloves being worn by the employees. I thought working in the food business required a food handling certificate which requires those things. The workers touching all over the product with their hands is so gross. The place was so dirty. Trash all over the floor. Tables dirty. So awful read more

Averie.S was so sweet and helpful when my friend and I came in we both ordered cake batter ice cream with sprinkles , yellow cake and frosting she was very attentive asking if we had a preference on what color frosting we wanted in the ice cream. Super sweet and super helpful thank you Averie! (: read more

Walked in on a Saturday night to get ice cream, was hit with a blast of hot air. Poor workers looked like they were miserable. Apparently the ac has been out since yesterday. It was cooler in the restroom. read more

I don't post reviews because I know the restaurant business gets enough negative reviews. That said, I ordered on uber eats and both orders only had half the ingredients I paid for. Very disappointing considering it's almost $30 after all the fees for only 2 "like it" sizes. read more

Many years ago we had a Cold Stone in Tehachapi and we would go maybe once a month. I am not an ice cream person but enjoyed the fun creations. Unfortunately, our location closed down and we haven't been to one since. We happened to sit in front of this Cold Stone while waiting for our sandwiches next door. I saw a sign up that said lucky Charms ice cream, okay that's all I needed to see! I went in and didn't even need to look around. Ordered the special Lucky Charms ice cream they add marshmallow fluff and the little marshmallows that come in the cereal. I ordered extra they are my favorite. They mix that together and then add gold flakes on top. I had them put it in a waffle bowl with sprinkles. This was beyond delicious, three of us shared it and it was perfect. I don't think this will be a regular flavor so I would get in there and try it if you love Lucky Charms. read more

I was bummed to order a larger size and for the price not get a full cup as the prices are inflated pretty greatly along with service fees tips etc, no utensils napkins or the considerable to-go items after splurging over $30 for a few cups of icecream. Not to mention skimpy toppings too. Seems that way about everywhere these days... read more

Had such a great experience here . The staff was super friendly, the place was super clean. You're greeted with a huge hello and smile. Maybe it's me but I love love love ice cream and this place is my go to!!! I pass up 31 flavors to get here. Not only for the ice cream but for the friendly staff. Totally recommend this location read more

Today is/was Friday June 2nd,2023. Last day of school. 2 pm-ish. Teens everywhere. Store full. ONE EMPLOYEE. ONE! One young man, taking orders, prepping orders, taking phone calls, ringing up orders, etc!! ONE! God bless him because he did his best, was professional and polite. Idk who the manager is but he/she needs to better schedule and HIS/HER SELF be there working so that NO ONE employee is tasked with it alone. That young man gets ten stars. The store itself - no! read more

One of my favorite ice cream stores. Never had a problem always friendly staff. Quick in and out and the prices are decent.

It was my granddaughters birthday and she got to pick out her own cupcakes and they were awesome. That place is amazing read more

Placed a order for my daughter's birthday. My personal message was "Happy Birthday Devyn" the girl then called me to confirm. I spelt out her name and she repeated back. I got the cake yesterday and got to the car and the top was finally defrosting to notice they spelt her name wrong and it was spelt "Dezyn" I should have read the reviews to see this isn't the first time it has happened. read more

I really like CSC. I like the fact that you can totally customize your ice cream creation. My favorite is a combination with chocolate, coconut, chocolate ice cream, brownies and almonds mixed together with caramel drizzled on top. I also like that they have ide As for flavor combinations. read more

I'm a big fan of ice cream. Especially when it rains for some reason lol. Today, I took my kiddo for a little treat while it rained and, still, there was quite a few people buying ice cream! The girl working behind the counter was sweet and worked with my kiddos constant indecisiveness haha. The attendant was quick and efficient and the shop and restroom were both kept clean. The ice cream is so creamy and delicious. The toppings are plentiful. The cones are fresh and crunchy. We enjoyed our trip and are already looking forward to our next trip! The marketplace location is the perfect spot for a delicious ice cream shop, especially in the summer time when the weather calls for a yummy scoop of ice cream after watching a movie or dinner around the corner I'll always crave ice cream and when I want something a little more decadent, this is where I'll go. read more

The ice cream here is always great and freshly grounded with toppings. They have a good variety of treats and to go options for celebrations. The staff is friendly and I have had numerous pleasant experiences. read more

This Cold Stone location has been pretty great. I have probably been here 3 times this month. They tend to busy in the evenings, regardless if it is a Friday night or not. I never feel rushed and the employees have always been friendly. Also, they answer all my questions about the sizes and if I can use the coupons I bring in to the store. My favorite is the banana caramel crunch with the base being banana instead of sweet cream. I got my mom and brother hooked on that flavor as well. They are also generous with the portions of ice cream and toppings. read more

This has nothing to do with the ice cream just the employees at the store. We told her that one of the kids had a gluten allergy. She didn't clean the mixing ice board and mixed sorbet on top of chocolate ice cream that wasn't completely scraped off. Then while paying we watched an employee use a swifter to clean the roof/vents from dust over open ice cream. I suggest that they should probably do that at closing time when everything was covered. The employee completely ignored me and didn't say anything about all the chunks of dust being knocked off. I will be calling corporate about this. With covid going on, they should be taking the proper time after closing time to properly clean the store. read more

The ice cream was very good. I went with a party of seven and they got us in and out pretty quick. The service was very friendly and they were on point with every order. The location is great because they are near lots of shops and plenty of seating in the patio area. read more

The tables are always messy every single time my husband and I come whether it looks like a busy day or slow day. I just wish it looked like the employees care about the store's cleanliness and appearance. We honestly only come here because we happen to get gift cards to Cold Stone often. Overall, the employees are very friendly. I've never had any disagreements with them, and they've never given me attitude in the slightest. If I'm ever confused about certain items, they are willing to help me any way they can. The ice cream is always delicious, and my waffle cone tasted good. read more

Good Ice cream but no free cone, no matter what size you get =( Ok, so the ice cream is good, but not great! So why is it so over prized? I suppose the show of the employees "mixing" the slobs if cream in front of you is supposed to be fancy... But really it's all stuff one can mix in our own and plenty of it for a lot less than what this place charges. The standard pricing includes only 1 mix in item and no cone. I'm just used to baskin's ice cream already tasting flavorful, no mix in required. When they're done mixing whatever, the ice cream always ends up looking like soft serve ice cream. I guess I'm most dissapointed that my cheesecake lovers ice cream didn't even have cheesecake pieces =( Still, I like the ease of the app and it's rewards, this is the only reason I visited. If it wasn't for the BOGO promo invites on the app, I probably wouldn't frequent this places. ...even dairy queen blizzards have real cheesecake pieces.... And noo overcharges! read more

Ordered ice cream and did not get. Called and the attendant was rude and stated, "I'm not dealing with this!" And she hung up the phone. Very rude staff and would not refund our money or give us information on how we can get our ice cream or our refund. read more

I love cold stone but tonight was a terrible experience. We placed an order online and when we got there it was packed. I work in a restaurant, so i understand the stress of a packed house. We approached the counter for picking up food and seemed to be ignored. The behind the counter girl refused to make eye contact and assisted the people behind us without a simple ask to step aside. We finally spoke up for the 2nd time and her attitude is what put us over the top. Please do better Cold Stone. read more

This is our favorite ice cream store to go to. We all bundled up and took off to get our ice cream fix. The kids picked Oreo cream and pink lemonade and bubble gum ice cream. There are so many flavors and mix ins and everyone can get their favorite. We went with our usual chocolate with mix ins in a waffle bowl. The waffle bowls were good but so hard you could hardly bite through them. The ice cream was delicious and all the employees are very friendly and accommodating. You can never go wrong with a Cold Stone ice cream. read more

I like their cakes. That's about it. I used to like coming here , but given that none of the workers here wear masks while preparing food, I'm just grossed out. I understand if patrons aren't wearing masks, but the workers should. So nasty. Won't be coming back anymore. read more

Mike & I discovered Coldstone more than a couple years ago! Such awesome stuff! Mike likes vanilla w/kit Kat candy mixed in‼ My favorites are Oreo filling w/ 1 Oreo on top OR cheese cake ice cream with caramel sauce on top I'm gaining weight just talking about it read more

The service was horrible I spent $99 and was given old hard cake pieces. I was told I couldn't use the reward program either. Just overall horrible experience just for ice cream. read more

Love the banana splits. They are my favorite!! The ice creams cakes are also very tasty!

After walking in, I was not greeted by any of the 4 girls that were working. They all had very nasty looks on their faces and I was looked at multiple times not saying a word. Incredibly rude. After about 5 minutes or more someone finally greets us and offers to help. Someone needs to have a talk with these girls about their customer service skills. Ridiculous. read more

A person that was next by the person that was serving laughed at me which I didn't like. When they gave it to me they looked at me weird when they gave my ice cream. Love it. read more

I walked into this place in a good mood and left feeling annoyed. I knew something was off when I saw the dirty and smudgey ice cream case like it hadn't been wiped in weeks. Customer service was other than friendly. I asked a question about the cones and sizes and the grinch behind the counter looked annoyed like it was such an inconvenience to have a customer and a customer with questions at that. The last thing I saw before paying was the dirty and dusty credit card machine. Two stars cuz at least my kid enjoyed the ice cream scooped with hate. I should have just gotten a margarita at Qué Pasa lol. Update: After reading the other reviews below, I give this establishment one star 'cause I think we all talking about the same rude girl! Lol, mama mia. read more

One of my students gave me a gift card to Coldstone Creamery for Christmas. IMHO this is an awesome idea for a teacher gift. Most of us adore ice cream, and those who are watching their figure probably have children that would love to take advantage of the card. They have a unique concept when it comes to ice cream flavors here. They start with twenty flavors of ice cream. There are eight large containers of hugely popular flavors like chocolate, vanilla, coffee, etc. and twelve smaller containers of more exotic flavors such as blueberry muffin, pumpkin, and dark chocolate peppermint. If this seems a little overwhelming, they offer you free tasting spoonfuls of any flavor you'd like to try. You choose a flavor of ice cream as your base then choose from a large variety of mix-ins, toppings that they put on a frozen piece of granite and actually fold and mix into the ice cream itself, creating a totally new flavor. Most other stores offer you ice cream and put toppings on top, leaving you with some bites of ice cream with a lot of topping and some bites with none. Coldstone's mix-ins make the topping seem more a part of the flavor itself than as an add-on. The ice cream comes in three sizes "Like It", "Love It", and "Gotta Have It". There's no subliminal advertising here; they're pretty up front about the rush to indulge in huge quantities. I love their ice cream, but find that I can order the "Like It" size and feel pretty satisfied when I've only finished half of it. You can get it in a bowl, a cone, waffle cones, or waffle cones covered in chocolate. On this visit I was a purist. I ordered the dark chocolate peppermint ice cream in the "Like It" size with no toppings. I thought it was a nice pairing, the dark heaviness of the dark chocolate with the brightness of the peppermint. It was very nice. They also carry ice cream cakes, ice cream cupcakes, smoothies, and even Hawaiian shave ice (which I've had at the other locations). read more

I like this location! The service is above average, and the servers, in my experience, are incredibly friendly and accommodating! The marketplace is the perfect location for walking around and eating ice cream, so this particular Coldstone is even more of a win. Most recently, I came and got something resembling an ice cream version of a cinnamon roll. It was perfectly portioned (who am I kidding, it was more than I needed), and it all came out within a couple minutes. I've noticed that a few reviews remarked the uncleanliness of this establishment, but I didn't notice anything below expectation! read more

I ordered a cake last minute for a coworker via uber eats, I asked cold stone in the comments to please write only 4 words on the cake as it was last minute for a co worker who was working their last night with us at a local hospital. Cold stone called me and said the person who writes on cakes is just leaving, I begged her to have anime just print the words to make it more personal and told her it didn't have to be perfect but please just write, "We'll miss you, Greta". Nothing was written in the cake, per the uber driver they said it was going to be too messy. I asked for printing, and said I had faith in them to just print the 4 words. I'm very disappointed no one working there could manage that. It showed up with frosting wiped off and blue smeared in it. Wow! $50 and can't manage simple task. read more
