If you are looking for a unique experience stop by Cravings Ice Cream! The menu is fun and I have…read morenot seen anything like their options before. The ice cream was a 5/5 for me, the toppings, and waffles combined well giving a crunch to the soft ice cream. Free parking is available but limited, and they have outdoor seating with a v for entertainment. I was joyed to see the international snacks available for purchase! I had to buy some oreos. Another perk was the eatery nextdoor!

Update: They're no longer affiliated with Fivestars!…read more I've since gone two additional times to try their waffle bites. My last trip was kind of spontaneous because I suddenly got a Fivestars reward that day for these waffle bites. However, when I arrived, I was looking for the Fivestars tablet only to be met by a Clover tablet instead. It felt like I went through a time warp because the employee working behind the register didn't seem to have any idea what I was trying to say regarding Fivestars, though he did notice a little trifold card on the front counter mentioning Fivestars. I asked if he could get his manager so I could explain, and even show, him my Fivestars reward. The reward said "already accepted", which he almost thought meant I had redeemed it already, but if that were the case, then it would have said "already redeemed". Given that they've now done away with Fivestars, I'm not too surprised he may have gotten the words "accepted" confused with "redeemed", but luckily, he was happy enough to honor it for me. The employee who assisted me was very helpful, though he did ask me to repeat the topping and the drizzle that I wanted. I chose the Strawberry Cheesecake flavor ice cream with Fruity Pebbles toppings and a Strawberry drizzle on top. Since I had already tried the cookie flavors before, I figured I'd try the fruity flavors this time around. He said he needed about 5 minutes to prepare my waffle bites, which were presented a little different than last time. Last time, I got the Cookie Butter flavor with *Cookie* Crisp and Peanut *Butter* (see what I did there?), and it came in a small plastic takeout container. This one came in a large plastic cup, and I'm thinking the logistics may have changed a ton between my last two visits. I did appreciate how the employee asked if I wanted the waffles on top of or beneath the ice cream before making the waffle bites; I chose on top. He also asked if I'd like powdered sugar on top, to which I agreed. Unfortunately, neither of the waffle bites I got from my last two visits impressed me that much. As a matter of fact, the only thing that impressed me was the strawberry drizzle. Everything else fell kind of flat. While generous in size for the $8 price tag, the Cookie Butter and the Strawberry Cheesecake ice cream didn't really taste like these flavors at all! For whatever reason, the peanut butter didn't add much flavor, but the strawberry drizzle added a lot! How even?! In short, the waffle bites weren't that much of an upgrade from the ice cream scoop that I had on my first visit. I'm willing to say "too much good was no good" here. The waffles themselves were good, but they can only do so much when a flavored ice cream doesn't even taste like that flavor. It's worth noting that on my penultimate visit, when I got the Cookie Butter Waffle Bites, I saw two employees behind the front counter who were ready to take my order. I asked them to explain what the waffle bites were, but it took them a couple of tries to actually understand what I was asking. From what I gathered, the waffle bites were similar to the ice cream scoop I had on my first visit, but with the addition of a warm waffle to supplement the ice cream. However, the step-by-step process remains the same. I was initially told it would take 6 minutes to prepare the Cookie Butter Waffle Bites, but it actually took 15! It seemed like one was training the other or they were trying to gather the ingredients and/or the steps needed to create the waffle bites. After about 10 minutes, I was told by one of the employees they had to make a new batch of waffles because the first batch had burnt. The music was getting pretty loud, so it was hard to hear him after that, but I didn't want to hold up the kitchen prep process any longer. I just said "Alright, sure" so he could continue preparing my order. I do appreciate how he let me know of this so that I'd know the reason for the extended wait, but I wish they weren't so ill-prepared during my visit. So overall, still 3 stars overall. I appreciate the prior partnership with Fivestars, but these missed opportunities have led me to believe that Cravings is just not for me. I doubt I'll try anything else on their ice cream menu, and considering that there are only a few parking spots in their lot, it will take a lot to get me to try their hot chicken. And speaking of lack of parking, I also want to mention that on my second visit, I saw two open parking stalls right in front of Cravings, one on either side of a car. That car had its driver's side wide open so that I couldn't park there. I had to park on the passenger side of that car, which he left much less room for. Perhaps a microcosm of the clientele in this part of town? Everybody deserves a second chance, right? Unfortunately, not everybody can make the most of them, and this is just one example of such. Thanks for the sweet treats Cravings, but I'll get my next one somewhere else.

I'm a regular at Handel's. I was craving a late night treat and what better than handel's to…read moresatisfy that sweet tooth. But it was too late to make it to my usual Long Beach location which closes at 10pm. So, it was a pleasant surprise when i found out that the Downey Location closes at 11pm. So, this was my First time at this Downey location at the "Downey Landing" Outdoor Mall. Lots of parking available out front. This is one of the parlor style Handel's locations. I arrived at 10:15pm. There was a descent line but it was moving at a reasonable pace. You order at the window, you pay and wait for your order. The Space outside is nice with a limited amount of seating in a common area. The building is well lit and you can listen to some nice background music while you wait for your order or while eating. For those who don't know Handel's. Their ice cream is made in house daily at every location. And the flavors are seasonal. So, you wont always find the same fruit flavors. You'll also find different flavors at different Locations. Today i ordered 5 pints to go. Flavors in order were... Black Raspberry Chunk Peach Peanut butter parfait Key Lime pie Meri's Choice (never seen this one before) When i got home. I had a sample of each, and although they were all delicious. The 2 that stood out the most were the Peach (made with real peaches) and the Peanut butter parfait. The Key Lime Pie could also be a top place contender. In conclusion. The Ice Cream is always excellent at Handel's. The portions are generous. The prices are reasonable and the service is always good. I once again highly recommend trying them out if you have not already.

Although the shop operates as a walk-up window with limited seating, upbeat music playing throughout the outdoor area creates an inviting atmosphere. The line moved efficiently despite the steady stream of customers, and the staff remained friendly throughout our visit. Best of all, the portion sizes are incredibly generous. A small serving is practically three scoops, offering excellent value. **Strawberry Ice Cream (Waffle Bowl): 5/5** Handel's truly elevates a timeless favorite with this exceptional strawberry ice cream. It had an irresistibly creamy texture while allowing the fresh, vibrant flavor of real strawberries to shine through in every bite. The crisp, freshly made waffle bowl added a delicious buttery crunch that perfectly complemented the luscious strawberry ice cream. **S'mores Ice Cream (Chocolate-Dipped Waffle Bowl): 3/5** This rendition of the beloved campfire treat had plenty of potential but ultimately missed the mark. While the ice cream itself was smooth and velvety, the graham cracker flavor overshadowed the toasted marshmallow and chocolate notes. The chocolate-dipped waffle bowl added a crisp textural contrast and a subtle hint of chocolate, but it wasn't enough to make up for the otherwise one-dimensional flavor profile. While our experience was somewhat hit-or-miss, Handel's demonstrated why it has earned such a loyal following. With its extensive selection of flavors and substantial portions, we're excited to return and explore more of the menu.

I'm not totally sure how, but I somehow got a free scoop reward loaded onto my Baskin Robbins…read moreaccount even though I've been a rewards member for close to a year. This year so far has been quite busy for me that I didn't have time to redeem this reward until I was doing some shopping nearby. My route took me to this Baskin Robbins on the southeast corner of Alondra and Woodruff, where dd's Discounts is the anchor store. Baskin Robbins is at the very corner of the building, and you can't really miss it whether you're coming in from either of the cross streets. When I arrived at about 4:30 PM on a Saturday, there was just one customer inside, and she was sitting at one of the four tables inside enjoying her scoop of ice cream. A female employee greeted me, and I asked her if I could redeem my free scoop reward here, knowing that not every Baskin Robbins location would honor it. Sure enough, she answered affirmatively, and it took me a while to decide which flavor to get. Lately, I had been watching my sugar intake, and so I would normally have gotten a flavor that was no sugar added. The only flavor I saw that had no added sugar was the pineapple coconut, but I wasn't feeling in a tropical mood if that makes sense. I was willing to cheat with a sweet treat for me to eat. Try saying that ten times fast lol. As I was scanning the flavors posted on the ice cream chests, the one that caught my eye was the Love Potion #31 only because it was the Flavor of the Month. The description of that flavor says, "White Chocolate & Raspberry flavored Ice Creams bursting with Raspberry-Filled Chocolate flavored Hearts, Raspberry Swirls & Chocolate flavored chips." Sound like a flavor explosion? You bet! Except it was too much good on one side, but nowhere near enough good on the other. I'll explain later. When I told the employee I wanted to try the Love Potion, she asked if I wanted a cup. I was expecting her to say cone as well even though I would have preferred a cup, but she never did. I just agreed to the cup, and she fetched a scoop of the Love Potion ice cream into my cup. Since the Baskins Robbins app had gone through an update recently, I wasn't sure how to redeem the reward. Instead of instructing me what to do or where to position my phone, she asked for my phone so she could scan the QR code that popped up on the screen. I wish there was a scanner that the customer could have simply scanned his/her phone without having an employee touch it, but I guess it can only be done from behind the front counter. After she completed my transaction, she added a small pink spoon to my ice cream, and I took my sweet treat to a table by the window. That table I sat at wasn't very clean, unfortunately, but since I was only going to be there for a few minutes, I didn't mind. I enjoyed the complimentary scoop of the Love Potion ice cream, but not nearly as much as I wanted to. For one, I didn't taste any white chocolate at all, which was one of the reasons why I got the Love Potion. There was soooooooo much raspberry flavor all around that it felt like I was consuming some artificial raspberry syrup in every bite. The chocolate was a plenty in my scoop, and it balanced out the raspberry flavor well enough that the raspberry flavor wouldn't be too distracting. However, like I said, I was a little disappointed in not tasting any white chocolate in the Love Potion. So while the flavor was good, I'm glad it's only a Flavor of the Month because I wouldn't get it a second time, but would recommend trying just once if you get the chance. You might like it better than I did, but I personally found the raspberry to be borderline cloyingly sweet. When I was done with my scoop, I tried to find napkins, but didn't see any at the front counter, An employee, who had just stepped inside to start her shift, was looking in my direction, and I asked if there were napkins. I only needed one to wipe my mouth, but she gave me 5 lol. I wish there was a napkin dispenser that is easily accessible for customers so that the employees don't have to touch them first. What is this, The Stand? lol Now that I think about it, perhaps the app upgrade was the reason for my free scoop reward? Not sure, but if you see a notification to update the app, do so, and you might just be rewarded as well :) Service was friendly, but not as friendly as the employees from the other locations. Definitely passable, however, for a chain like Baskin Robbins, though I wish the employee who serviced me would show a little more appreciation for my business. Overall, I do recommend this Baskin Robbins if you're in the area and want some ice cream. I like how it's pretty close to the 605 freeway, so when I needed to go back home, I could take the freeway rather than surface streets the whole way.
