    Ice cream sandwich
    David T.

    Got an ice cream sandwich after a Sharks game. Birthday cake flavor was my favorite after trying samples and chose that for my sandwich. Was very tasty! Highly recommend and the staff was very friendly felt like visiting a friend. Would recommend heading over there after a Sharks game. There were a few of us and other groups that went there after the game.

    Strawberry cheesecake, one scoop
    Sydney J.

    While in downtown San Jose, I decided to stop by here with friends. I sampled the chocoholic, cookie dough, and strawberry cheesecake before I ultimately opted to get a single scoop of strawberry cheesecake in a cup. The chocoholic is very chocolatey. The cookie dough was quite sweet, had almost an artificial-tasting tang to it, which I found a bit off-putting. The strawberry cheesecake was very sweet and reminded me of butter. I did like it overall but generally I prefer my cheesecake to taste more sour and not super sweeet. Overall it was decent and the price was not bad ($4.80 for the single scoop at the time when I went) and the location is convenient to reach by walking or public transit.

    We visit Cream every so often, usually in the evening after dinner. It's a rather cramped location, and last night, it seemed 9 of us all had the same idea at the same time, so we all crammed in for a treat. Luckily, they have kiosks allowing you to place your order digitally rather than waiting for your order to be taken. I've only ever encountered 1 person working at a time, and it can get a little busy, but we've never waited too terribly long. The ice cream is great, you get quite a bit for the price, and while the staff is usually very quiet and head down, they are still nice and try their best to work quickly. There is no seating, inside or out, and they are often out of waffle cones, but the brownies, cookies, ice cream and gelato are all worth the trip.

    Apparently, this is a popular dessert branch in NorCal. They specialize in ice cream and cookies. I think my only issue was that Yelp and Google hours indicated that the shop was open, they had the open sign light on, and then there was a paper sign stating that they were closed and out on break but gave no indication on when they'd be back. We were actually so close to just going to Insomnia Cookies but when we were there, their online cashier system was down. This was already after circling the area a couple times and it was during a con so we needed to get back, but in the nick of time, CREAM re-opened with their singular worker to help customers. I got their mini chocolate chip cookies (2) with a small scoop of their salted caramel ice cream. This was a little over $4 and is a small snack size if you don't wanna down a huge dessert. The ice cream, despite being freshly scooped was already melting quickly. The cookies were a bit "harder" than what I would expect from "freshly baked" cookies. Overall a bit mid, but maybe it was just an off weekend (though big L since it was during Fanime). PS. Idk who is running their official website but you freaking embedded a link to a paper writing service. Not sure if that was on purpose lmao.

    After eating dinner at a city nearby, we decided we wanted some late-night dessert too. We went here on a Saturday around 12:20AM and there was a short wait! This icecream shop is VERY small, so it felt very crowded inside even with their lack of seats. I was looking for something easy to eat, so I got a sundae. For their sundaes, you get to build your own and choose the type of toppings to go with it. We ordered the Cookie Sundae w/ Rocky Road Icecream to share. This icecream was good and I thought it was cool how it contained a bunch of Oreo cookie crumbs and also let me choose my choice of cookie to add on top, which I ended up choosing their Snickerdoodle cookie. I'd recommend this place! I love how much variety they have. They sell other desserts ranging from icecream, cookie icecream sandwiches, sundaes, and icecream tacos too!

    This Cream location has really come back! They're offering better quality gelato, which is not the same as ice cream. Plus they give you a generous scoop each time. My favorite combo is the pistachio and giandiuja chocolate. I'll definitely be back soon.

    We love cream yes we do, we love cream how about you? The answer to that question is yes. Cream is a staple for us when visiting San Jose and we love the ice cream sandwiches. Not only are their ice cream fantastic but the choices of cookies makes it second to none! They even have options for vegans as well!

    Ice Cream cone, brownie sundae, and a cup of ice cream
    Shantel R.

    In town for the half marathon and walked over to Cream after dinner. 100 degree day and ice cream was the perfect treat! Cute little shop and the lady working was so nice! They had a great menu selection and I didn't think the prices were too outrageous either. I would definitely go back again.

    Peanut butter, double chocolate cookies
    Annabelle R.

    We were craving cookies on a Sunday night, and initally stopped by Insomnia nearby, but they were closed for some emergency type of situation. So we ended up walking across the street to CREAM, knowing that they sell more than just ice cream here. Don't get me wrong, I love ice cream and I've had a nice helping of chocolate ON chocolate WITH chocolate here in the past (with their ice cream and cookie combinations), but I didn't realize how good their cookies alone were. We got the double chocolate, peanut butter, and chocolate chip cookies, and they were served fresh and hot out the oven (at 9:45pm!!). The cookies were fantastic, full of flavor and melted chocolate, soft and delicious... No, CREAM did not have an extensive menu of unique cookie options like their competitors across the street, and yes they were very small and thin cookies, but they tasted phenomenal, and were cheap enough that I can't really complain. CREAM is just a small space without seating, except a single table with two seats outside. But if you're willing to stand or take your goodies home, it's a great option to have for sweet treats in downtown SJ, and they're open late so that's a plus. Also, there is usually not too long of a wait whenever I visit, and the workers have always provided efficient and friendly service. As a reminder, parking is almost non-existent downtown (unless you get lucky), so be prepared to walk a few blocks.

    Ice cream Custom Cookie Sandwich
    Asmait T.

    I love the vibe and the playlist that was on when I got in there. The man that worked there was super friendly and let me try samples before deciding my choice. I ended up getting a double chocolate chip ice cream cookie sandwich with mint chocolate chip. It was really good!

    Cream's Pint of Ice Cream (vanilla) + 1 Dozen Freshly Baked Cookies (Snickerdoodle & Chocolate chip)
    LaDonna A.

    They're known for their ice cream sandwiches, but their ice creams are SO GOOD!!! ($$$$ Pricey, but good $11/pint) Their vanilla is one of THE BEST I've had! Best way to enjoy Cream is to buy (2) pints of their ice cream. (We like vanilla.) Then you'll need (2) dozen mini freshly baked cookies. (We like to get snickerdoodle + chocolate chip). You now have endless ice cream sandwiches ! $$$$ It's pricey though. This set up will cost you $50! However, you have some for the next several days, not just one shot. I've ordered via DoorDash & the cookies arrive warm & the ice cream super frozen. If you don't feel like going downtown, they'll come to you.

Then came the star of the show: their macarons. These were easily some of the best I've ever had.

It's an interesting blend that kind of works, even if it takes a second to figure out what the "theme" is supposed to be. They offer a wide range of desserts and drinks. On one side, you've got items like tartufo (chocolate, cappuccino, limoncello, pistachio), sorbets, and cheesecake slices in the display case. On the other side, they have traditional Vietnamese-style desserts like sweet soups (chè), grass jelly, black-eyed bean pudding, and combo desserts with things like cassava, jelly, and coconut. There's also a solid drink menu with milk teas, fruit teas, smoothies, and specialty coffees. I ordered the latte with matcha foam, and while I don't usually go for sweet drinks, this one was definitely on the sweeter side--but still really good. The matcha foam added a nice earthy balance to the coffee underneath. My friend got the three-color iced drink (the one with layered beans and jelly), and if you're into that texture and flavor profile, you'd probably enjoy it. The service stood out. The man helping us (possibly the owner) was very friendly, patient, and took the time to explain menu items, which I appreciated since some of the desserts aren't as familiar if you haven't had them before. The display case also looked well-stocked and clean, with everything neatly packaged and labeled, which made it easy to browse. Overall, it's a solid spot if you're in the area and want something a little different from the usual dessert shops. The only reason it's not a full 5 stars is because the concept feels slightly all over the place, but the quality, variety, and service definitely make it worth checking out.
