I'm assuming that our coffee ice cream was atypical or there would not be so many good reviews. It was like eating a snow cone (crushed ice) mixed with some melting coffee ice cream. It was not creamy at all, just crunchy little chunks of ice. We were disappointed as it was nothing like our favorite New Zealand ice cream. The store is clean and adorable. Our server was friendly and polite. Sadly, it was not a good experience.

New Zealand style soft serve located in the downtown El Segundo area. It has friendly service and a laid-back beach city vibe. I didn't know that there was a New Zealand style soft serve until recently, and to be honest I'm not sure if I fully still know, but it may have something to do with the way fresh fruit is folded into the ice cream I believe. I have been wanting to come here for a while. I happened to be in the area and went for it! The Hokey Pokey is the classic flavor for NZ, but I really wanted the banana. It was delicious and the ingredients were fresh and well folded in. This place is great and the ice cream here is such a treat. I'm a big fan.

Vanilla with Honeycomb

What can I say? I'm in a New Zealand state of mind! Murphy the Doodle and I stopped in El Segundo today for some pizza and to try Creamy Boys. I'm so glad that we did! I love this creamy New Zealand ice cream with fruit mix ins and the honeycomb topping. I had the Fresh Banana and, of course, the honeycomb topping and both of us agreed that this was outstanding ice cream. The banana vibe was real! The store is small, clean. and happy and as I sat there, more and more people came in. I will definitely be back to try more of the delicious flavors.

Love creamy boys. And usually all their flavors. But we had two orders of the seasonal flavor, coffee, and boy was it a major disappointment. There were chunks of ice all throughout and they said it was frozen ice with espresso. It tasted more like just ice balls. The chunks really are not representative of "creamy" and ruined the experience for us. The one star is simply for the disappointing flavor. We both had to dump it. If I was trying creamy boys for the first time, I honestly would not go back. It's the umpteenth time we have been and our first thumbs down. Thankfully, that flavor is going away soon.

Thin Mint

There is absolutely no ice cream place that tops Creamy Boys. I'm obsessed!! I have no clue what they do to make it taste so good, but it's just on another level. The hokey pokey flavor is amazing, and today I got to try their limited time thin mint flavor and it was also incredible. My go-to when I'm in the area.

Front counter - order here

Creamy Boys definitely caught my attention as I was driving through El Segundo -- the bold font and that very... adult-ish name (lol) made me curious enough to pull over. I'm glad I did, because the place is genuinely good. Their New Zealand-style soft serve is silky, creamy, and different in the best way. They've got two locations in El Segundo and one in Hermosa Beach, and the shop itself has a simple, clean, comfortable vibe. Matthew was running the front on his own when we visited, and he delivered amazing service. Friendly, welcoming, and he took the time to explain the theme behind Creamy Boys and how the ice cream is made. He gave great recommendations too -- I don't like overly sweet ice cream, so I went with the Mixed Berry, and it hit perfectly. My sister, who has a real sweet tooth, got the honeycomb ice cream with caramel drizzle and toffee and was smiling from ear to ear. What meant the most, though, was a moment I didn't even see happen. My niece has a fractured fibula from taekwondo and is currently on crutches. After I went to get the car for her, she came out beaming, telling me that Matthew had approached her to ask how she was doing and what happened to her leg. That small moment of compassion stayed with her -- and with me. We need more places where hospitality feels human, genuine, and heartfelt like that. Prices are fair (a regular was $8 and packed), the ice cream is delicious, and the service is the kind that wins loyalty. I even grabbed one of their shirts with the skeleton graphic -- can't wait to wear it on my hikes. Thank you, Matthew, for the kindness and the smile. You've definitely earned some loyal fans here. Looking forward to coming back.

The Hokey Pokey is really good, a must get. Go out of your way to try it. The cashier (brown hair taller man) was unkind and just had an attitude. Mean people suck. Ruined my night. Cute shop tho, funny stickers, and nice to-go cups. Don't ask for to-go cups though, he will reprimand you. You have been warned.

We got small cups and it was the perfect sweet treat after dinner. Their soft serve is super smooth and the perfect sweetness. Next time I would want to get the Banana with honeycomb! ig: @cravingswithcat

Hokey Pokey
Eunice N.

Wooowww I LOVE the Hokey Pokey ice cream !! The creaminess was perfect and the toffee infusion into the vanilla + on top was just an amazing combination. One of the best ice creams I've had, and I'll definitely come back again :) The service was lovely, and they really packed in the ice cream. All of my friends also really liked eating it! I do have a sweet tooth, so for someone who does not, they have other flavors that might be more to your liking. I wish they do two flavors in one cup, but I understand why they couldn't do that. I'll be back and hopefully I'll try more flavors, but I think I'll still end up craving the Hokey Pokey flavor :) The interior was cute and it was very nice to eat ice cream in store. Parking was no issue either. Thank you!

I found this place while driving around El Segundo Downtown area. I tried their most selling flavor Hokey Pokey and it was super good. Clean and nice sitting area with friendly staff. Highly recommend

Oh wow! The coffee ice cream here made from the local roaster Smoky Hollow Coffee is so delicious! Be sure to get it before it leaves!

My husband and I came here for dessert on a Sunday night in April. Street parking is plentiful and easy to find nearby. The store is spacious and has some seats and tables inside. There were a few people ahead of us when we came in, but they ordered quickly so we didn't have to wait long. Creamy Boys is a New Zealand ice cream place. Their style of ice cream is known for blending ice cream with real fruit. We'd previously been to their Hermosa Beach location and quite liked it, so we were both happy that they opened up a location closer to home. We got the hokey pokey flavor and shared this between us. The single serving was huge and it can easily be enough for two people. Service was friendly and efficient. Will be back and would recommend.

Hokey Pokey
Bonnie C.

It was my first time trying this place and it did not disappoint! I got the Hokey Pokey and it was so yummy. Just like the name of the store, the ice cream was super creamy and the toffee honeycomb sprinkled on top was so good! When I went, they were sold out of everything except vanilla and Hokey Pokey but I definitely want to go back and try all their other flavors! Plenty of street parking and there's also a parking structure right across the street too if it gets busy!

Oh. My. God. When I first tasted the ice cream, I almost sweet creamed in my cone. (Did that come…read moreoff gross? It was supposed to be cheeky). Anyway- I came because a friend was raving about Salt and Straw and swore by it. Said it was the best ice cream in the world and I had to try. He said I had to have the salted caramel. I am not a huge ice cream person but I do enjoy some once in a while. I've tried Brusters and Handel's and I think they're overhyped. Of course I've had Baskin Robbin's, Thrifty's, Dreyers, Haagen-Dazs and so far HD is my favorite - until today. I had the salted caramel ribbon and I was totally blown away. I LOVED the vanilla ice cream and texture. I thought the caramel was incredible. I had never had ice cream as delicious as this. I called my boyfriend right away because he IS a big ice cream person and I had him choose a couple flavor pints I could take to him. He chose rum raisin and hazelnut cookie. I brought home a salted caramel pint for him to try too. Oh my gosh. We're going to try those together later and I will follow up with another review. So excited. They also have the best waffle cone I've ever had.

Salt & Straw is definitely a fun stop if you're into trying new and unusual ice cream flavors. The…read moreshop has a cool vibe and the staff is really friendly and let you sample a bunch before deciding. Some of the flavors are honestly really good and creative, but a few feel a bit over the top or just not something you'd want in ice cream. It's more of an experience place than somewhere I'd go when I just want a simple scoop. It's also on the pricier side, but that's expected for the type of shop it is. Overall, I'd say it's worth trying at least once, especially if you like adventurous desserts...but it might not be everyone's everyday ice cream spot.

I am sure, dear reader, that you are aware that some people pronounce the word data like data, and…read morenot like data. this same concept is true when we consider the business name of Handel's. I thought it was pronounced Handel's like a last name should be, but a security guard, who I asked for directions to get to this place, called it Handel's like one calls the things one grips in bikes. Which is the correct way of saying it? I leave that up to you dear reader, as well as what ice cream flavor you want, and whether you want this ice cream in a cone or bowl, or made into a milkshake. However you take your ice cream I will say that you will likely enjoy it more in the resting place that Manhattan beach offers. As my pictures show, I took my ice cream (which was in a waffle cone, witha chocolate rim, decorated with peanuts for some extra light crunch) and I enjoyed it in a bonfire that I did not have to light. In the background, the Nice to Meet you song by Miles Smith gently wafting in the background. The gentle breeze, the notes around, the taste of damn good ice cream, all conspired to help me feel relaxed in place and mood. Thus, if one wants Handel's and also a place to sit that feels right for ice cream, the Manhattan Village one offers all that, at least it did for me. This Handel's is not a walk-in brick location. it is a window. The person who helped us out on this day was Jasmine, and of course her service was princess like. For instance, she showed me the difference between milkshake sizes and the difference between them is significant to the point where a large one can serve two. View the pictures and I invite you to disagree, if one can. Their ice cream selection is lengthy, and creative, and considerate--- they have sugar free and vegan options. So they have a large and ample array of flavors that will satisfy most if not all sweet tooths. I wanted to take the time to celebrate this Handel's for its location because the environment created the ice cream experience. So it was not the cherry on the top, it was the cone, that supported the ice cream.

Came Sunday night for a sweet treat. We come here often but we decided to try new items…read more We got the hurricane, brownie sundae, & a milkshake (total about $27) The hurricane icecream was basic, like a McFlurry but more vanilla based icecream.

Handel's Homemade Ice Cream - Redondo Beach…read more Honestly, I can't say enough good things about this place, it's one of my favorites. I especially love the Strawberry Cheesecake ice cream, which is always delicious. One of the reasons I prefer this Redondo Beach location is their generous portions. They also allow you to choose two different flavors on a sugar cone, which some other locations (like Glendale) do not allow, they require the same flavor. That flexibility definitely makes a difference. Parking is plentiful, the service is excellent, and the ambiance is nice since you're enjoying your ice cream outdoors. Overall, it's a great spot, and I highly recommend it if you're in the area.

I only completed the purchase because I had promised my kids ice cream, but the overall experience was disrespectful, unprofessional, and felt discriminatory. I would not recommend this place, especially for families.
