Fosters Freeze - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Santa Paula, California

I've been here several times in the past for desserts and ice cream, and for those alone, I'd give this place 5 stars. Everything has always been delicious, and that's actually what brought me back. I remembered this place being amazing when I was in college about 10 years ago, so I was excited to return. Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing. We ordered 4 basic cheeseburgers, small fries, and only 2 drinks, and the total came to $67. For what we received, that price felt incredibly high, especially compared to other burger places nearby. The burgers looked great with all the fresh toppings and vegetables, but the flavor just wasn't there. They were big and visually appealing, yet surprisingly bland. It felt like a lot of ingredients piled together without much seasoning or taste to make the burger stand out. The one bright spot was the customer service. The staff was friendly, helpful, and genuinely sweet throughout our visit, which I really appreciated. Overall, I was shocked and disappointed. I don't mind spending $67 if the food is worth it, but in this case, it simply wasn't. The desserts and ice cream are still 5-star quality, but based on this experience, the burgers were mediocre, flavorless, and way too expensive for what they were. read more

People there are friendly and very helpful. The food is "classic Foster's Freeze" - well-made, good menu. I do wish the corn burritos were the way the closed Ventura locations made them - these are less crunchy and way more beans, but folks must like them this way too. read more

I've lived in the area for three years and finally decided to give Foster's Freeze a try. I ordered the chili cheese fries, a Twister M&M, and the classic cheeseburger. Overall, it was okay. The cheeseburger was solid and hit the spot, and the Twister M&M was definitely the highlight, creamy, sweet, and loaded with candy. The only downside was the chili cheese fries. I wish the fries had been cooked a bit longer because they were pretty soggy under the chili and cheese. With crispier fries, it would've been much better. Service was good and the young kid taking my order didn't rush me at the drive thru window. Not a bad visit overall, but there's room for improvement. read more

We've always had a good experience here- whether drive through or dine in. Some family favorites are- Texas toast/grilled cheese, zucchini fries with ranch, fish tacos, veggie burger & crinkle fries &, of course, the soft serve. Such a classic place. It's truly the best fast food in town, owned by locals. Always a treat! read more

Honestly speechless! I've been trying to recreate the taste of this place for years, and it finally lived up to the hype actually, it was even better. We ordered close to closing time (double cheeseburger, fries, and a 'dirty and worms' twister), yet everything came out exceptionally fresh and hot. Combined with the amazingly warm and upbeat service, this classic diner-style experience is unmatched. The crispy, salty fries and delicious burgers make it a must-visit for anyone in the area. read more

Absolutely love foster freeze. For the people complaining about portion sizes, fast food should be a treat not a buffet. I typically will order a small twister and typically can't finish it. The place is nostalgic typically with kids working just like it should at an old style drive in. The staff is always friendly, always respectful when we stop in and they always do a good job! It's a nice treat every once in a while for some delicious ice cream treats. read more

Best fast food around.Prices have gone thru the roof! Will probably not return for some time.

Foster Freeze is so nostalgic to me. I absolutely love their fried burritos and their taquitos with the avocado sauce. I was quite disappointed when arriving that they don't have taquitos. However, the fried burritos did not disappoint. My only complaint would be the prices have gotten quite high. But this location was probably one of the cleanest I've ever been to with a very friendly, helpful staff. I drove from the San Fernando Valley to eat here and I'll definitely go back. read more

Service was absolutely terrible. Their mistakes become the customers fault. Having miss having lunch with your family because they forget items and no apology at all. I'd like to speak to the owner regarding the poor customer service. read more

Great fresh and delicious car hop style food. Fish and chips are solid! They make a fantastic hot fudge shake. Probably my fav in the world. Their corn burritos are my go to. I get the fish with zucchini fries which are excellent as well. read more

Stopped by Foster Freeze to pick up an Oreo Twister for my wife, and I was greeted with the biggest, most genuine smile from a team member named Mercy. She's exactly the kind of person you hope to see behind the counter at an ice cream shop--warm, friendly, and full of positive energy. Her personality instantly made the experience even more enjoyable. On top of that, she was extremely professional and efficient. Mercy truly delivered exceptional customer service, and I can't say enough good things about her. She turned a simple ice cream run into a memorable moment. Give that woman a raise! read more

I am giving 5 stars because this is the best fast food place around here. It beats the big guys with good tasting food and friendly service. You can still get your own soft drinks unlike some of the McDonalds who are removing their fountains. read more

Love their tacos, plus the soft serve is wonderful, you can but it by the quart too. The only downside, the containers to takeout, say a Banana Split are really bad, They are guaranteed to spill everytime. Best to eat there... read more

I have been going here my whole life and let me tell you the last time I went it has gotten so much better. Right before covid it was really going downhill. The flavor or the ice cream wasn't great and tastes almost watered down. The food was greasy and not it but this time it was so much better. It tasted like it did when I was a kid. The ice cream was thick and creamy and everything was great and the place looked clean and well ran! Great job read more

Service was good but the Sundae was a lot of ice cream with minimal chocolate fudge. Mc Donald's has a better Sundae for less $

Loved it! We went through the drive through for the first time. Y'all keep in mind - this is an icecream place with food, not a food place with icecream! Icecream - we got a small dirt n worms twister, and an apple sundae. Loved both. I appreciated that the toppings are mixed in instead of just thrown on top. A small twister is about an inch bigger than a Starbucks grande cup. The apple sundae came in a bigger cup than expected- but we soon realized it's actually a regular size clear cup inside of a large cup to prevent the whip cream and icecream from falling out - genius! Food - we got 2 fish filet combos. There's a lettuce shortage so you need to ask for lettuce if you want it - but we forgot lol. It was still really good - 1000% better than a McDonald's one lol. Inside are 2 wide fish chunks and sauce. Their buns were really good. It was surprising filling. Fries could use a little more salt but still good. Service - great. Staff was nice and chipper! The food came out super fast too - we were really impressed but this. After paying at the window, we got our icecream immediately, followed by the drinks. The food came out less than a minute later. Our order was about $40. 10/10 and would definitely return. read more

They have a great, friendly staff. Their turkey burger is the best. Corn burritos are served with just cheese. Don't forget to ask for sauce. They are good corn burritos though.

I know it's pricey here BUT the items we get, won't find anywhere else. Maybe when Sonic is open. Reeses twister, cherry slush are the bomb. My personal favorite is the Butterfinger twister. Staff is always very nice and professional. read more

Really rude girl at the drive through window yesterday. We and our family have been going to SP Fosters Freeze for years but we will not be going anymore. Lost some good business because of that girl. read more

I really love this place, but the last time I was there, they had three staff constantly cleaning the dining area. Sweeping, mopping, replacing trash liners etc. I guess it's the price you have to pay for a clean environment, but the constant commotion wasn't very conducive to a relaxing dining experience. :-/ read more

Went here after having lunch. I had the Oreo blizzard, my kids the kids ice cream with gummy worms, and my husband the hot judge sundae. So yummy and the staff was very kind. Inside it was very clean. read more

Prices raised, Food Portions are smaller example, a Small Shake is now a Kids Shake, Burgers got smaller I hardly see any one ordering food here anymore waste a money read more

Food is quite pricey yet delicious here; however, some of the worker's attitudes are flat, unwelcoming, and monotone especially the ladies taking orders. Sometimes they say "Welcome" other times they go straight to "Can I take your order?" but their facial expressions are so uninviting and non genuine not to mention this brunette girl who is there almost everyday at the front with a very judging attitude when I have had questions about the items on the menu. Important to mention again that the food is delicious here when it comes to success in a business, but the service accounts for a higher percentage and is lacking. read more

Had not been to this Fosters Freeze for a few years and when I tried to order my favorite item (taquitos) I was told they no longer had them on their menu which was a bummer. So instead we got the corn burritos which were good, we liked the cheese burgers, and the fries and ice cream were very good. The young guy who took our order was awesome and patient with me as i didn't really know what to order after I was told there was no taquitos and the excellent service was very much appreciated. read more

My family has been going here since I was a child. There was a period of time that we stopped, due to a change of ownership, but we are so thankful to be coming back now that the previous owners are back! Parking is available in a private lot or on the street. The drive thru is a little tight, but I drive my SUV through it. There is ample lighting and the location is safe. There is outdoor seating so if you have a dog with you it works out perfect. As soon as you walk through the doors you receive a welcome from one and often times more of the staff. There is a wonderful male manager who is much more friendly than the female manager who you often find speaking in a demeaning manner to staff and guests. It is definitely evident that customer service training is important to the owners because outside of the one female manager, all of the staff are thorough and on it! I love that this location makes employment available to the younger age group offering them the opportunity to learn job skills and responsibilities for their future! The restaurant and bathrooms are always clean and stocked. They provide booster seats for the kiddos and those are clean too! The food is served in an accurate and timely manner and throughout the time you are eating it is common for an employee to check in on you. They have the best iced tea in town!!! Even better than Starbucks. The fried burritos, the big boss and corn burritos are just 3 of my faves. My favorite dessert is the peanut butter & hot fudge shake or the the chocolate and vanilla twist cone. My daughter loves the pineapple slushee or chocolate dipped cone. read more

We LOVE Santa Paula Foster Freeze! It's been family owned since the 60s and is a legendary fixture in quaint Santa Paula. We've driven hundreds of miles just to eat at this friendly, well managed Freeze. The very best tacos, burger and chocolate chip shakes ANYWHERE! They have other yummy offerings, but those are MY favorites:) The staff are great at their jobs, attentive and engaging. I love how the Freeze hires local, competent kids to augment their staff. Great life training! Nice, clean dining area, inside our out. Thank you, Santa Paul Foster Freeze. You never let us down. Can't wait to travel to CA soon:) read more

Be aware that the prices on the menu do not reflect the prices you pay. For example, spicy chicken sandwich combo shows $8.39 on the menu, but they were charging $14 and change at the window. Yes, $14 for a sandwich, fries and drink. Inflation is here. When politely told about the price discrepancy, the employee stated she didn't know about that and would check. Not that it matters, but I won't be back. read more

Great little spot to visit while in Santa Paula. We always come here for our taquito cravings, deep fried and topped with shredded cheese, don't forget the guacamole. The burgers are always delicious and made to order, I got the Big Boss and substituted the fries with zucchini. We also got the fish filet combo and a side of corn burritos. The shakes are thick and the ice creams always good. This place has been here for a long time and the quality of food has remained the same. Everything here is delicious and the quality of food has remained the same. read more
