    Trifecta
    Mel J.

    Good ice cream. I sampled the pumpkin chai (good pumpkin flavor and spice) & ube (was ok, the ube flavor was there but kinda weak). I decided to get Trifecta instead. The ice cream was creamy and not too sweet! The mix of candy pieces (oreo, reeses) were plenty and they were still crunchy.

    Chocolate Mint and Ube Ice Cream

    Davis Creamy serves as THE consistent, clean, and quality location for your ice cream fix. The patio area, trash bins, and interior were all well maintained during my late evening visit. Service was extremely welcoming and helpful when navigating the assortment of their many unique flavors, of which you are invited to sample 2 flavors. I tried the ube and chocolate mint flavors, both of great quality. Both flavors were rich, creamy, and didn't have the artificial taste that you sometimes taste at other stores. Servings are quite generous as my $4.50 single scoop was more like 2-3 scoops of ice cream. With prompt, friendly service, a clean location, generous portions, and quality ice cream at a decent price, Davis Creamery serves is a MUST visit for any Davis passerby.

    Visited from out of town and came across Davis Creamery. Unfortunately, it was closed temporarily because of shortage in milk distribution. So we returned the next day and boy, were we glad! It was simply delicious and the prices were great! Well recommended!

    Stopped by this place on our way thru Davis looking for some ice cream. Overall it was pretty good! The prices were fair for the size scoop you get. I do like how they have lots of unique flavors, but because of this, I do wish you got more than 2 samples per person. I may have to come back some time to try the others they have. Service was also good as well, very friendly and helpful. Would recommend!

    ube and coffee oreo
    Ester L.

    The best ice cream in Davis 100%. Tried their ube and coffee oreo pint, they were soooo good. Ube flavor was not very strong but super on point, overall just insanely tasty. Texture is great too. Dunno about service or ambiance.

    We had a long day at the soccer fields and wanted a special treat before heading out. I saw this place had rave reviews, and when we drove past there was a line out the door! Seems like it was true! So we waited and it did not disappoint. There are tons of special flavors and they did allow you to taste them if you were not sure. We stuck with the normal ones, but they were delicious nonetheless.

    Coffee Oreo (bottom) and Bridgadeiro (top)

    A must-stop if you're visiting Davis. Whether it's a pit-stop after touring UC Davis or a dessert stop after dinner downtown, you can't go wrong with coming here. You can feel the homemade, small mom-and-pop shop vibes when you enter, which is the BEST (but I'm biased because small business yogurt spots and creameries was my childhood)! I could have used a little more energy from the person working, but considering they had a group of 15-20 people before us and they were the only employee there, I give them credit. It's not easy working food service. And not everyone can fake it 'til they make it. Nonetheless, they let you sample 2 flavors (but if there's nobody behind you, one more wouldn't hurt) and they have a ton of cool ones to try, so choose your two wisely! I sampled the Bridgadeiro (a Brazilian dessert that resembles a chocolate truffle) and the Ube. I've never had a bridgadeiro, but I was blown away; it was SO GOOD! I was a little nervous about it because chocolate can easily taste artificial in frozen desserts, but they made this flavor perfect. I wasn't in love with the Ube (it could have been just a little creamier and fuller), so I got the Coffee Oreo instead. Didn't sample the Coffee Oreo (but do you really need to? It's coffee and oreo. C'mon) and it was delicious. The waffle cone was fresh and tasty and didn't leak much at the very end (I'm a slow ice cream-in-a-cone devourer, it comes with the territory). Their website says they may change flavors daily, so you never know what you're going to get. Ah, the beauty of it all.

    Cute ice cream spot and it's also very good! We liked all the flavors we picked. Looking forward to try other flavors. Line was long but moved pretty quickly.

    a lot of varieties of ice cream. my favorite one is hands down the sweet potato one (although it might be seasonal?) ube is cool too. service is fast and it's a nice spot to chill with the outside seatings :)

    Ube and s'mores double scoop
    David L.

    I've been here many times. However this one faithful visit was a dud. The waifu got the single scoop that were split into two different flavors. That's not bad. What was bad was the stale waffle cone that the ice cream was served in. It was bendable bc it was so stale. There was absolutely no crunch to the waffle cone at all. How deplorable! Normally waifus are easy to please but hard to satisfy. However this time I agree with her disgusted look towards the waffle cone. Now this isn't to say that no one should ever go to Davis creamery. I am also not saying the staff picked the worst waffle cone to serve to us. However a date night that ends with an ice cream outing ought to include a crunchy fun to eat waffle ice cream cone is just really frustrating to a princess or a spoiled Yelp critic. And the expired, doughy, chewy waffle cone was such so offensive that the waifu just gave up eating the cone and ice cream altogether. And since I never throw away food, I ended up eating the whole waffle cone. And let me tell you, the waffle cone was lackluster and lifeless. Go try for yourself Davis creamery. My sugar cone was aight. Just the right amount of crisp and crunch. But beware the stale chewy waffle cone that cost an extra $1.50 (Sorry for the first world problem whining; I sound like an Asian kid whose jingjing just earned him a 5 star mehmeh)

    I don't often write Yelp review anymore - but please accept this as my petition to keep Pandan Coconut as a reoccurring flavor!! We sampled it during bracket week and waited until the following week to buy the whole quart. My filipino family gives it a 10/10 . Not too sweet, consistency amazing, and the accessibility of GOOD ice cream in Solano County makes me want to buy multiple gallons to keep for myself. I personally am the type to not like coconut shreds in my Pandan ice cream, so this one is top tier for us. Thank you Davis Creamery for not just offering Ube, but also Pandan. Such an underrated filipino dessert but honestly better that Ube IMO.

    I've tried quite a bit of ice cream and this is definitely some of the best I've had in a long time. I was ecstatic to see all the cow-themed merchandise & decorations for Davis. Service was friendly and hard working! My boyfriend and I shared 2 scoops (chips ahoy + oreo and the trifecta). Both were absolutely delicious and not too sweet. My only feedback is to add more of the Chips Ahoy + Oreo bits into the ice cream. I can't wait to come back and hopefully try their Avocado Coconut flavor! I purchased a cute cow printed reusable straw as a souvenir. Definitely drop on by for delicious ice cream and good vibes! You won't regret it!

    Saturday in Davis so of course ice cream sounded delicious - this spot came recommended by a restaurant down the street. We sampled a couple flavors and ended up with ube and cookies and cream coffee. Ice cream had great flavors but if you prefer harder ice cream, this was not it. Would've been perfect for me if the texture was harder. Server was friendly and place was clean!

It's a bit of a drive from Sacramento due to the traffic because of the construction. It was worth the drive to try something new. I've never had this type of Taiwanese shaved ice before. At least I think it's Taiwanese. It was described as frozen milk shaved like shaved ice. It's very fluffy and not chunky like regularly snow cones you get at fairs and festivals. This shaved ices don't compare. I loved the texture of the shaved ice in our Mango Bingsoo(Regular). The shaved ice was covered with mangos and dressed with sweetened condensed milk. I wish there was a larger portion of the condensed milk to pour on top of the plain ice when you run out of mangos. The proportions mango to shaved ice was pretty spot on, though you could always use another layer or two of mangos. I just can't get enough mangos. Price- This was pretty pricy and I would say it's a special occasion type of place. In addition i Size- The regular was the perfect size to share with a friend. For two of us the large would have been too much. Restrooms- They have one unisex bathroom in back. Thankfully you don't need a code to go in. It was clean and well supplied. Entertainment- They have a bookshelf of games to entertain you and your friends as you enjoy your sweet treat. Parking- There is plenty of parking as they share a private lot with the shopping center. It's nothing like downtown Davis where parking is scarce and there is a time limit. Menu- they have a large menu, mostly of drinks. They have a smaller menu of desserts. They had several flavors of Bingsoo(Regular) including a seasonal peach, mango, and our friends got the one with red beans and rice cakes. I had a taste and it was really good also. Would I go back? Yes, for a special occasion.

    So many tea joints in this town, I didn't give this place a second look. It's been here for 7ish…read moresome odd years and never even considered that it served more than just bubble teas. Place is adorned with symbols, cartoons and slightly odd translations, many of them repeats but amusing to read while dining. We got a couple dumpling dishes and sat down. Service is odd but it works. There are touchscreens and there's also a regular cashier. "eat with love, happy wife happy life" Hope that doesn't offend you. Probably something lost in translation so relax with the sensitivity. Ambiance vibes were minimal because I think it's summer break. If it got much busier (which I'm fairly certain it will) there would be less space to move around, obviously, but I think folks would still pile in. Dumplings were tasty and one came with a dipping sauce. They appeared to have the array of umami sauces (salty-soy, sweet-chili, spicy-cock, bitter-vinegar) along with a shaker of paprika? Don't cry about the dishware. Paper bowls for everyone! I'm sure they had forks somewhere but we never saw them. "Tea won't be drunk, but the person will" HUH? Never tried those "Freshly Made Egg Waffle" things so figured, why not. Got some chocolate guys that look like oversized bubble wrap. Thought it'd be better. Thought maybe there'd be something INSIDE the bubble. Nope. Was just kinda meh. "Sorry we won't able to have discount, but you might able to get the whole store if you hit on the boss" gives off harassment vibes. Hopefully it's just lost in translation. Odd advice kept me reading for the final Yelp-ish words of wisdom: "One meal means eat for the whole day without stopping." But take pictures and write about it.

We usually ask to skip the spam, but everything else in the soup, at least one person in it family will eat.

Chicken Cutlet with meat sauce over rice: if we are getting at least two items, this is for sure one of them. Excellent flavor on the peppery batter on the juicy chicken and the meat sauce and pickled veggies are an excellent combination. 3. Zha Jiang Mien: First time trying it. Two of us liked it. May get, again, next time. We usually prefer the blacker Korean style sauce, but this was pretty good, too. 4. Beef roll: think thinly sliced beef with fresh veggies rolled up in an onion pancake.
