Went for the first time with my boyfriend a few weeks ago before closing. The Staff was super friendly, place is kept clean, and ice cream was delicious. Yes it's on the pricey side if it's custom but it's worth the splurge for a sweet treat every now and then. Went a second time a few days ago and the girl who helped us was also friendly. Kind of surprised at some of the negative reviews I read on here about that specifically because we've had good experiences so far! read more

Cold Stone Creamery - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Redlands, California

There is usually only one employee, which depending on when you go, can be either good or bad. The ice cream and mix ins are good, there is really no denying the reputation that is Cold Stone Creamery. The staff was so helpful and friendly. She was patient and gave in to some basic small chat. My only complaint there was that after every ice cream she'd say "Will that be all for you today?". There's 3 of us and we only ordered one ice cream, so no lol. Maybe try "Can I get you anything else today?" My other complaint is the temperature of the store itself. For an ice cream shop it was so warm and uncomfortable, we couldn't wait to get outside. read more

Cold Stone Creamery - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Redlands, California

Went last night got 2 ice creams one was super over filled which yayyy anyway I asked for an extra cup they refused said they'll charge me for a whole other ice cream if they give me a cup I couldn't even fit a lid they offered to throw away the ice cream instead of giving me a cup I complained to my partner as that's so ridiculous whatever was talking about how last time the charges me twice and refused to give me an ice cream for the double charge the brunette the starts yelling at me to not come here she'll call security because I was telling my partner the story about a past experience there that was bad too I will be speaking to corporate about it no wonder their rating is so low we tipped the blonde she was nice even said sorry for the other girl read more

Biggest downfall is there is not enough staff working at this place to get through the line at a decent time. In 2026 this should not be an issue! However, on the flip side an employee named Noreen who helped us was outstanding!!! She had a great attitude even though she was working by herself and had a huge stressful line she was sweet, friendly, cheerful and even funny. She made the whole experience and long wait worth it. She deserves a raise! Even the ice cream she made us was fantastic. Please management get this girl some help. No one wants to see one employee working by themselves with a huge line. read more

Weird girl with big eyes made a dumb comment saying she wouldn't serve us. Like isn't it your job??? But the other guy was nice and said he would. Still ended up leaving because she was being a bitch and for what? read more

This location is busy throughout the day it seems. So be prepared to wait. The workers are nice and they make your ice cream the best way they can for you. It appears they have great friendships and regular customers. The ice cream is always delicious ! It's fresh and they generally always have the toppings you could want! My only complaint is the mix ins aren't always properly balanced / mixed in all the time. It's not consistent among everyone. Sometimes I get big pieces of pecans and they're not even cut. I do get it perfectly done at times too but I wish it was like that all the time. If you don't get mix ins then your fine, they ice cream alone is really good! I like their seasonal flavors too! It's pricey but it's worth it in my opinion. Definitely come and enjoy as eat it at their outside patio. Especially at night! The vibes are immaculate! read more

Cold Stone Creamery - Like it size - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Redlands, California

Cold stone creamery in Redlands is ok. There is nothing special here. I ordered my twins their birthday cakes in advance. Went to pick up. There was only one employee working, which is not cool. The employee was super friendly and welcoming. The inside wasn't dirty, but it needed a wipe down for sure. Unfortunately, on one of the cakes, the purple icing wasn't available, so I had to wait for them to put an alternative color. I picked blue. Like I said, I ordered in advance, so it would have been nice for them to call and ask what color instead of making me wait for them to rush write it. The writing was super messy on both cakes. I don't like complaining, but when you spend 50 plus on each cake, you'd think they'd try to do better. The cakes were ok. The actual cake itself in each one was really dry and not as good as they used to be. Overall, I probably won't come to this location again. read more

Some of the workers are Kind of rude . Mostly teens working. Expensive for sure. 1 extra spoon of pie crust on a small sized specialty ice cream is an additional $2 on top of the $10 you already being charged. This is getting crazy read more

There was a dude in there tonight that has been there the last 2 times I've ordered and I've been so upset I haven't had cash to tip him!!! I hope you see this!! I appreciate his help very much. He is the nicest worker there and very approachable! Thank you again , I'll remember next time to bring cash to tip you! Ice cream is always great. read more

This place has amazing flavors and amazing customer service. It is on the pricey side so watch out and it isn't always quiet here if you thinking of a date here with someone but overall the ambiance is nice when families with children aren't inside. read more

I was craving something sweet after dinner and opted for icecream. Although my boyfriend and I came in 15 minutes before closing the staff was all very friendly and super patient with us. I know it can get a little frustrating when you're trying to close and customers come in last minute. The icecream is consistently delicious and the toppings are never stale like some other icecream shops. read more

I'm really disappointed with my visit. The staff seemed uninterested. To make things worse, the item I wanted was out of stock and no one mentioned it until after I waited in line. When I finally got something else the ice cream was already starting to melt and the mix ins weren't properly crushed in. For the price I paid I feel like this is unacceptable. read more

Located in the Citrus Plaza with plenty of parking available, but not directly in front of the store. We were craving something sweet after dinner and this was a short walk from where we just ate. The store was clean when we walked in and there were two people ahead of us. Fortunately, there weee two employees serving the customers so we didn't have a long wait. My son devoured his Oreos and mint ice cream. My hubby's choice was apple pie and I was able to taste a spoonful, which was delicious like eating an apple pie ala mode. I had the strawberry blondie. I love the blend of strawberry ice cream, caramel, crushed graham crackers and strawberries. The employee was nice and fast with his service. We savored our desserts outside in the patio area enjoying the weather before sunset. It was a lovely end of our day out with my family. read more

Cold Stone Creamery located in the center of Citrus Plaza and is convenient to the shopping area. While there are a lot of parking stalls, they can become quite full. There are sidewalks through the parking lots to the stores. We arrived on a mid-week day, in the late morning. Our customer service was good, and at-the-time COVID protocols were met. The ice cream was good. It was sweet and creamy, and met expectations. They had the mixings that we wanted and they blended in well and completely in our ice cream. We ate outside, where there was ample covered seating. read more

As a paying customer I should be able to use the restroom, especially if it's opened to the public and if they are still opened. It was 45 mins before closing and since they had already cleaned the restroom for the night they didn't allow anyone to use it. Multiple other customers asked and were turned away, while all other stores were closed for the night unable to offer restroom service. I wouldn't recommend this location. read more

The service was awful. The attendant did not even want to be helpful. The ambiance was cold and unfriendly. I tried the vanilla ice cream which tasted like an artificial sugar and gummy, no any vanilla taste or flavor. My husband and son were disappointed too. Cold stone creamery uses artificial colorings and flavors. We waste 38 dollars today. Please Don't go there. It's not a real ice cream store. I give them below zero star. 0 00000000 read more

We visited my local Cold Stone Creamy last night at 9:45 pm, which was 15mins before they closed. We were turned away because they had a line, and by the time they finished serving the people already in line, it would be 10:00 p.m-according to Nora. That is absolutely absurd! If you close at 10 p.m., you close at 10 p.m., correct? Or is it the employees leave at 10 p.m.? And, if that is the case, the store needs to change their hours to reflect that. So, two customers walking in 15 minutes before closing should have been served. Being the only two Blacks in the store, I cannot help but wonder if we were turned away for the color of our skin. I have NEVER felt so disrespected, embarrassed, or unwanted in a store before! This location is the only ice cream store open late in Redlands. It's the middle of summer, and we are experiencing 100-plus-degree weather every day. So, the store needs to staff adequately to be able to serve ALL customers that walk in before closing. Nora and this Cold Stone Creamy location should be ashamed! Employee: Nora Store Number: 699 Location: Redlands, CA read more

Anthony was AMAZING. Fantastic customer service. And of course the ice cream was delicious. Love the dairy free option!

I was nervous to come in because of a couple bad reviews on here, but I had a fantastic experience! The employee helping me was Norah and she is AWESOME. Don't listen to the low star reviews. The store is clean and the employees all are professional and friendly! Also, I highly recommend the Pumpkin ice cream in a waffle cone! read more

Such a large variety of flavors and mix-ins available. The nice employees will even let you taste a flavor before making the hard decision of which flavor it will be for the day. Very pleased with this location. read more

My big issue was that they don't offer tastes anymore, which is understandable during COVID, but also the person who helped me couldn't really explain to me the tastes of newer flavors was. And there wasn't a description of flavor anywhere else. When I asked about another flavor, they admitted that they had never tried it. ... So, how do you accurately describe and recommend something you've never tasted? I mean, I could go with the usual but when one feels the ache to be creative, I feel like their employees ought to be able to support and provide for these needs. In the end, the Amaretto ice cream didn't taste at ALL like almonds (what the employee said it did) and I found it quite strange since I mixed it with cookie dough and KitKats! Ice cream could never be disgusting but this mix didn't taste right at all. read more

The server called out and the owner is useless, as she states she can't open bc she doesn't know how to serve ice cream why are you owning a business you can't operate poor ass service read more

I haven't been to Cold Stone in a while and I was disappointed. I got the smallest size which was the "like it size" one mix in. This was almost 9 dollars. Oh my!! I know the ice cream is good but next time I will be buying ice cream at the store and a pack of Oreos, this will give me more than one serving. I rather save the money and I get that it's an experience but my mix in wasn't even properly mixed in either. read more

I honestly don't know why I keep coming back here. The attitudes of the employees consistently suck, they seem to always be out of a critical signature creation ingredient, and the prices are obscene. 3 small cups of ice cream will cost you over $35!! You want a pint? $30. Guys, your ice cream ain't that great, especially when I can go to 31 flavors for 1/3 the price. A Breyers pint will run you about $7 at any grocery store. I feel taken advantage of EVERY TIME I come here. Unfortunately, I think I'm done with cold stone. 2 stars so they can't pay to have my post taken down or I would have given a 1 star. read more

Cold Stone Creamery - a red spoon sticking out of it - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Redlands, California

SICKENING AND DISGUSTING HEALTH HAZARD NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN DO NOT EAT HERE!!!!! Had a piece of long grained hair in my ice cream as soon as I pulled the spoon out of the ice cream it stretched out I could not believe my eyes I went back in to let them know and a manager who removed her name tag and refused to release her name said "they do not compensate for mistakes because they happen and they try there best but things happen" I could not believe what I was hearing I asked for corporate number she rudely refused so I received it from another employee disgusting experience and behavior do not waste your money here they need to be shut down. They also tried to put a completely unripened banana in my ice cream the banana was as green as grass look at the picture and when I noticed it I said you do not have any ripe bananas and the lady said no this is what we have so I said do not put that in my ice cream and I had them replace it and then literally saw them cut it and put it in another customers ice cream one of the most disgusting things I have ever seen at a food place SHUT THIS PLACE DOWN DISGUSTING!!!!!! read more

The new Silk Ice cream was delicious!! I am so happy they have it now! Definitely worth the try it was creamy and perfectly chocolatey

Came to cold stone for dessert and had a great experience. My son is highly allergic to peanuts and nuts and I was unaware that cold stones made there ice cream creations in the back to prevent cross contamination thank you Clarissa you were so helpful! Definitely helped ease my anxiety and nerves for my baby! We all were able to enjoy ice cream. Definitely be back! read more

So went to have some ice cream with family and they ordered the premade combination and they seem to got good amount of add ons. I ordered mint with reeces pieces. I only saw they put 1 cup... Not worth going here for ice cream anymore if they only cheap out what you will pay for. Welp, crumbl cookie will open soon and hopefully their pricing to food will be better. read more

We like ice cream, and this place rocks. The people that work here were extremely nice, and very professional. We had a question about a birthday cake, and they gave us some real good thoughts. The place was pretty empty, considering it was a holiday and all. The only issue was had was that for 4 "like it" (small) ice creams, it was $36, kind of expensive read more

i can not believe cold stone is having the audacity to charge such high prices for their ice cream and not have indoor seating. considering these triple digits of heat when you just want to get out and enjoy a little sweet cup of ice cream this should bea reason to not give any cold stone businesses read more

The new hire sorry didn't catch her name was fantastic. Ice-cream was delicious as always.

We came to this location on April 4th around 7:30 so whoever was the only guy that worked there provided terrible customer service. It's not what they say it's how they say it. The guy working there had a tone of annoyance and seem so bothered when we asked a question. The guy prepared the ice cream like he hated doing it, we asked for an Oreo and the guy crushed it once, leaving it still mostly whole. I remember when we used to come here and everyone was so friendly and it was an inviting place to come to. We will stick to 31 flavors from now on. read more

Cold Stone Creamery - 13 year old's bday. So sad, not worth $50 if it looks like this don't offer lettering if it's just going to ruin the cake... - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Redlands, California

I have never had such rude customer service. I ordered a cake online and paid $36.99 because that's what the price is ONLINE. I went to go pick up my cake and they MADE me pay 4$ because they said the website had the wrong prices. I have no problem paying the $4 but the fact that the girl at the counter was rude and she told me that i had to pay it or i would not get my cake after I already paid for it online. I will NOT be coming back here. read more

I stopped by tonight for some ice cream because I was really craving it. I got a birthday cake remix for $7!!! The price seemed high at first, but after considering the fact that the ice cream is made fresh in store and you have the freedom to customize your ice cream, it was well worth the price for a yummy little treat. Additionally, service was good. We were helped by a taller girl with dark brown hair named Kyra (?). She served us quickly, accommodated to my brother's allergies, and served with a smile! I will definitely be back when I am craving overpriced ice cream, but maybe not on the weekend when its fairly busy. P.S. The bathroom was incredibly clean! read more

No hand sanitizer for customers to use and only sanitizing pens after every 5 customers. Are you serious Cold Stone? You want customers support, but don't want to reduce the risk of infection to your customers by providing hand sanitizer and sanitizing the pen after EVERY customer. SMH!!! Your employees echo your sentiments...they don't care either! read more

Haven't been to a Cold Stone in a really long time, came in here after lunch with some friends. I ordered a small ("Like it") sweet cream with brownie add-in (one free add-in). It was okay, even though I personally wasn't in the mood for it. However, it definitely wasn't what I was expecting, it was a much softer texture more akin to gelato in my opinion. Overall, the service was pretty fast since well we were the only ones there. Inside there was only two tables, each with two chairs inside, however there is ample outdoor seating. To be honest, the prices seemed a little expensive for a chain ice cream experience. TL;DR "like it, love it, gotta have it"...probably not. read more
