    We visited Koolfi Creamery for the first time recently and it was a great experience. I was thoroughly impressed by the unique ice cream flavors and thought the dessert options were creative. They do limit you to 2 samples, but I suppose that is another excuse to come back and try out new ice cream flavors. I ended up getting a mango flavored ice cream and it had a vibrant, fruity flavor and was quite refreshing. Customer service was friendly and adequate, although the shop seemed understaffed. I wish they had more seating indoors and outdoors, but they have a few tables and benches. The decor is bright and welcoming and appears to match the shop's overall vibe. We enjoyed the ice cream treats quite a bit and opted to purchase 2 more pints of other flavors to bring back home. I'd definitely recommend checking out Koolfi Creamery and I'm looking forward to visiting the SF location someday too.

    Koolfi creamery offers an array of unique ice cream flavors with an Indian twist! They also offer an array of different items like other desserts and coffee. Came here after visiting Habibis Birria because nothing beats a sweet treat after a meal. 2 samples is allowed for each person. I tried their guava and toasted marshmallow. My partner tried mango lassi and koolfi. All great flavors! For me, it was a tough choice. I ultimately chose the guava fresh which had a nice guava taste with a hint of spice from the Indian red chilis. Never thought I'd enjoy spicy ice cream, but this was great! My partner got the mango lassi milkshake which tasted really good! A strong taste of fresh mangoes made into a creamy milkshake. I saw they have banana pudding with gulab jamuns as a flavor. I didn't see it this time, but I hope I came try it one day!

    This is a Indian-inspired ice cream spot with about 15 flavors on the menu and honestly, I hadn't heard of most of them before. I would've loved to sample a few before deciding, but there was just one person working and she was pretty tied up since it was a Saturday afternoon. My friend and I each went with two scoops in a bowl (about $20 total for both of us). Between the two of us, we tried four different flavors and they were all really good unique, but in the best way. The shop itself is clean, with a little bit of bench seating outside and just one table with three chairs. It definitely feels more like a grab-and-go spot than a place to hang out. That said, the one employee running the show did a great job keeping things moving. If they had one more person working and maybe a couple more tables, this would've been an easy five-star experience.

    Every ice cream flavor was made with love! The flavors you can't think ever going together, they have made it happen. Jackfruit and coconut? It tasted so good! It's a summer special so try it before it's gone. The flight came out to be around $15 but it was worth it. We liked lychee rose as well and guava with hint of chilli was family favorite, so unique and no flavor disappointed. You can tell they are made with high quality ingredients. I wish they were open past 9pm.

    Cherry, guava chili

    Love all the flavors here! We got double scoops of cherry, mango, watermelon sorbet, and guava chili. The cherry seasonal flavor was sooo good. It's fresh, with nice chunky cherries inside. Guava chili is subtle chili flavor and it's so good and fruit forward. Loved this too. Classic mango you can't go wrong. Watermelon sorbet wasn't too icy and was really flavorful. Looking forward to coming back and trying more flavors!

    Gulab Jamun Sundae

    Koolfi offers one of the most unique flavors an ice cream shop can have and Im looking forward to trying much more of what they have. We came here on a Saturday right before they opened and didn't realize they were still getting ready. We were meeting up with friends so we didn't mind waiting outside the gate. The owner let us know she's still setting up but we are more than welcome to hangout in the patio until they did and she opened the gate for us. It was hot so we were super thankful for the hospitality. After they opened we tried their flavors and you get two scoops per person. This is pretty standard these days especially after Covid. We tried the mango lassi and guava red chilli. Both were delicious but I would recommend mango lassi if you're a first timer. What I ended up trying was the Gulab Jamun Sundae. Let me tell you it was bomb dot com. I was initially disappointed by the price for the portion, but after eating it I understood why it was so small. The flavors were super decadent and rich. That small amount was definitely enough for this sundae. I would recommend trying it at some point during your adventures here at Koolfi. One last bit, there is limited indoor seating and a handful of outdoor seating. Its definitely not a come during peak time with friends place but a pick up and go spot. As for parking you can park in the surrounding neighborhoods so be prepared for a short walk.

    a variety of ice creams

    We stopped by after a weekend trip to get some pistachio, mango and a pint of koolfi. The service was friendly as usual and we were quickly helped. We got to sample a few before we got our scoop. Delicious and very fresh ingredients used to make these ice creams

    Amazing service, cute little place right next to the salesforce building, good variety of flavours and they rotate every week. They had guava chilli as a rotating flavour and we loved it, went back again a couple of times to try more flavours, my favourite are malai kulfi and guava chilli

    Will definitely come back! Cute ice cream shop right next door to Habibi's birria, so stopped by after trying that. My flight included (in order Im ranking them): Guava - Im more kf a fruity ice cream person, so this was my favorite. I wished the guava flavor was stronger, but overall really good. Banana pudding - had a very strong banana flavor! And it had donut pieces in it, so was really tasty Salted caramel- another really strong flavor, very caramel-y Cookies and cream- good but needed more cookie flavor Lotus rose - my least favorite. I wanted to like it because who doesnt like pink ice cream, but was lacking flavor You order and can tast 2 samples (max/person). I tasted the classic flavor. And it wasn't for me. But can see why a lot of reviews like it.

    I've had Koolfi Creamery bookmarked for awhile and was surprised that it was next door to the birria restaurant we were eating at! This establishment is LGBTQ+ friendly and POC women owned :) All of the flavors sounded so good and we were really intrigued! We couldn't decide what to get, so we opted for the sampler flight! It comes with your choice of 5 flavors and it was perfect for our party of two! We chose: watermelon mint, cardamom, malai koolfi, guava, and mango lassi. It was a hot day, so the ice cream was melting fast. All of the flavors were delicious and one of a kind! We enjoyed all of them! Our favorites were the Malai Koolfi and Cardamom. They have a hot foods menu and I would like to come back and try something from there as well. The also have a gulab jamun sundae, which sounded awesome! We will definitely be back again to try their other items and grab a pre-packed pint to take back home!

    I was so happy to hear about this south asian lgbt+ owned creamery from my sister, and I have to say it did not disappoint. The service here was some of the best i've had. I could tell there was a lot of love and passion put behind this business. The various ice cream flavors are so inventive and unlike anything i've seen at any other ice cream shop and everything is made fresh in house! They also allow you to sample the various flavors before deciding on what you want, which was really helpful. Since it was my first time, I landed on a classic koolfi ice cream with chai affogato, which was so sweet and tasty! I will definitely be going back to try some of their other fun flavors soon.

    Time for some unique eats

    KOOLFI Creamery is a hidden gem that delivers a truly unique experience. With deep Indian roots, this spot blends tradition and creativity in the best way possible from their hot drinks and sandwiches to the standout desserts that you won't find anywhere else. I ordered The Noodler, a layered Indian sundae that was rich, flavorful, and unlike anything I've had before. They also offer free samples (huge bonus) and an impressive variety of creative flavors that make it hard to choose just one. The service? Wonderful. The vibe? Warm, welcoming, and full of character. We were taken care of from the moment we walked in, and without a doubt I will be back again. Highly recommend giving this place a try if you're in the mood for something different and delicious. Malia did an amazing job five star.

    Ice cream!

    Had the Koolfi and the Kapi (coffee) split single. Very flavorful and creamy. Worth a stop (especially after a quesobirria taco!)

    Do you guys post the weekly flavors somewhere?

    We try to but unfortunately I'm not very consistent at it. It's usually on Insta and FB

    Do they use eggs or gelatin in their ice creams?

    We use eggs in our dairy ice cream made French custard style. Vegan ice creams have no eggs or any animal products.

    10/10 will buy again and again! I tried cold stone years…read moreago. I didn't like it! It was right next to Teriyaki Grill! So, I said why not dessert. I got a kiddy scoop and a red Valentines cone. The ice cream was very good. The cone delicious. I can't wait to return. I ordered online. When I walked in greeted right away. By two workers that were cleaning the store. It was very clean. I told them my name and both of term went to get my order! Such much love thank you all!

    22503 Mission Blvd Hayward, CA 94541…read more(Mission Blvd x A Street) This is the Cold Stone Creamery in downtown Hayward, in the Lucky Shopping Center. I was in the area having my truck serviced, and had the unique opportunity to visit this place right when they opened at 11am. I don't go to Cold Stone Creamery locations too often. Their "super premium" ice cream is rich, decadent, and high in calories. But on a sunny Saturday, I decided to drop by and maybe try their coffee ice cream. It was 11:05 am and there was already a line! Only one young lady was working behind the counter. She told me she would serve me in a moment. Everything appeared fully stocked. Lots of cones and waffle cups. The place was clean and shiny. There's several small tables inside. When it was my turn, I asked the young lady what's good. She suggested all kinds of combinations depending on what I like. I decided to get: Regular Chocolate & Coffee, with coconut blended in. She offered me a free sample scoop of any flavor. I picked mint, and it was placed on top of the frosty blended ice cream (see photo). I gave her a $2 tip. While I was waiting, I asked to use the restroom. She came out to unlock it. It was clean and well stocked. The ice cream was super creamy and rich. The mint ice cream was easy to eat. But the blended coffee/ chocolate ice cream was almost frozen solid. It took awhile to finish eating it. It's okay, ice cream should be eaten slowly. It's a comfort food, it makes you feel good. Overall, I had a very nice experience here. Customer service and quality of ice cream get an A+ & 5-star score. I was told the ice cream is made on-site. Free parking in lot.
