    Mixing in fixings
    Monty D.

    How can you not have ice cream when walking around at the Coronado Ferry Landing: this is Cold Stone Creamery. As expected the line was out the door, but the other customers were polite and the line moved steadily. The staff was cordial. They have the requisite amount of ice cream flavors and lots of toppings to be mixed in. I like the availability of options. The ice cream is okay, and the toppings are okay. Here, you are really getting choices and location.

    Bubble gum ice cream love it

    Came here at the perfect time before they had a little bit of a line. We got right in & I tried out the pink cotton candy ice cream which is just as good as the original blue! Size was a love it mixed with some crushed Oreo cookies. The customer service was fast, easy, & the ladies that worked here are incredibly polite. Beautiful views of the ferry landing & plenty of seating around. Absolutely loved my experience here!

    Website - Pint-sized family pack
    Sophia M.

    Very disappointed experience here. The Employee is not well trained as she said: I never hear of this when I pointed one item that came from their official website. Their employees are not Not respectful either. I ordered the family pack as shown in their website. They want to charge me almost double the price in store. They act like if we are not paying the price showing on her machine, we are not getting respect from them. Finally they got someone to help but After we paid and left I heard they were laughing at us. Never going back!!! Not sure who is running the business but you should really take a look on those negative reviews on yelp.

    Watermelon and blueberry flavored frost bite
    Lina L.

    Kinda dirty.. Pricey..We got a couple one scoops in a bowl; one vanilla and one watermelon sorbet. I took taste tests of pumpkin and watermelon, I went with watermelon and blueberries for toppings. After I got my bowl it seemed to be melting right away, like way too fast. Then I taste it and it just didn't taste the same as the taste test; it tasted like iced sugar, not watermelon. Maybe the guy scooped the bowl and tester spoon from different parts; either way it still should have tasted consistent. It was gross, like frost bitten ice cream. I should have maybe just kept it simple with vanilla. Never again, though.

    Toppings Selection

    Weather cannot deter a delicious ice treat. Or the fresh smell of baking (not baked) wafflecones. It has to be a marketing strategy but the aroma is hard to resist. Like mint and chip? Try chocolate mint with Oreo pieces. Love cookies and cream? Try sweet cream or vanilla cream with Oreo pieces. Just a couple of favs. I can't remember if it's vegan or lactose friendly. However, I have a theory. If the lactose is high grade and fresh- I'm sure you'll be tolerant. Isn't it pretty cool to choose your ice cream base then add one free topping or a nominal cost for additional toppings, to sweeten a smile. It's 60° and for San Diegans this is cold (blessed spoiled). Yet, ice cream is good for you. Cold Stone is made on-site, so natural ice cream is better for you. Parking is unlikely an issue even in a hot day. The only challenge is the size. More Sweetness can lead to a tummyache and eyes are bigger than the yumminess. At this location, you have ice cream, the fresh smelling bay and sunsets that are divine. Masks are required. All toppings and ice cream are secure and contained. Even postmates and other delivery vendors can bring you this delightful creamery. Cash and other payments are accepted. Customer service fast, friendly, and appreciated.

    A CS by the ferry landing. Ice cream by one of the most scenic points in town is genius. Everyone loves ice cream and views. Bit pricey with inflation (I paid $13). But consider it a treat with the downtown skyline staring right back at ya.

    Yum

    I am not a fan of Coldstone and this location solidified my unfaness. The ice cream is ok. Lots of toppings and flavors to choose from. The ice cream is never really fresh and tasty to me. The 3 stars is for the ok ice cream and ok service here. I don't need everyone yelling "hi" when I walk in or overly friendly during my visit but this place didn't even say hello or try to act friendly at all. Just "what would you like", "No we don't have that" and "here you go, pay over there". No thanks, Creamistry is for me.

The pesto spread was good though. It was creamy and the artisan bread it was served had great variety. Ambiance: 5/5 This place is such super cute. When you walk in, the desserts all look super appetizing. The seating areas are super cute and the floral decor are stunning. Service: 5/5 It is an order then sit down establishment. There is great attention to their dessert. I saw them heat up a knife just to cleanly cut the cake. The food service however did take some time to come out.

Like this was weeks ago, and I'm still thinking about it. It added a touch of saltiness to the sweetness to the ice cream and I would absolutely get this again. It's soft-serve, and the thing is, they have so many good flavors, dips, and toppings. Also, I just saw on their social media, you can put a filling INSIDE your ice cream and then dip it. Oy vay, I'm in love.

    I generally don't love ice cream places where you can't taste a sample of their flavors before…read morehaving to commit to a full order, and unfortunately, the North Park Creamery is one of those. There are multiple signs that say they do not give samples. Despite this, I decided to try the bananas foster because it's a dessert I love, and I've never had it as ice cream before, dipped in caramel. My husband got the Oreo milkshake. Honestly, we weren't a fan of either. The caramel didn't really taste very caramel like, and the ice cream was too light in the flavor. I was expecting more. My husband also wasn't a fan of the milkshake, and to be honest, we didn't even finish either of our desserts. It's also a bit more on the expensive side for what it is. I know they say it's for the high quality ingredients, but I like more flavor in my ice cream. Overall, there's many other ice cream places that I like much better, so we won't be coming back.
