    Lafayette finally has its own ice cream shop! It's super cute and I've taken my daughter a few times already. You can also take pints to go and they recently started serving matcha, too (haven't tried yet). Metered parking is plentiful in the parking lot right in front. My only request is for them to add basic flavors like chocolate and strawberry, which were not available on our last visit.

    The "Scoop" on this ice cream shop is that they change their flavors every week! I came here on Sat 4/42026 with a friend; I had a kid's scoop of the cinnamon churro ice cream and she had an earl grey matcha. The cinnamon churro flavor was evident! Also, the ice cream was hard to get out of the carton but the employee scooping it had the patience of a saint and still managed to get me a generous serving for a kid's cone. Watching the matcha whisked by hand was cool. Can't wait to see what flavors they have next!

    The ladies at the front are always so sweet, and I really like their banana bread matcha with oat milk! It is a beautiful green color, not too milky and not too overpowering of a banana flavor. Will try the other flavors soon :) I come here during my lunch for work, and this is the only place I'll get a matcha!

    This was a cute matcha and ice cream shop in Lafayette. My friends and I came to Lafayette for brunch and wanted to try the matcha because we saw a post on Tik-Tok about the matcha and we wanted to try. The 4 matcha flavors were all made with natural flavoring and sweeteners all made in house. When we came in, we were welcomed in and received a great introduction and explanation about the matcha flavors available and the worker who helped us provided us with her recommendations for flavors. The service was fast and the matchas were very flavorful. Would definitely recommend the banana bread and earl grey flavors! My friends will definitely be back when we need a matcha fix!

    Hands down, some of the best matcha I've had! I got the mint matcha, and there were two other flavor options. The woman making the matcha was incredibly kind and knowledgeable. I will definitely be back. The Scoop is also decorated in a really cute way. I can't wait to try the ice cream flavors.

    Such cute store! Staff was really friendly and helpful. It has a small town feel. Lots of flavor. We got the banana pudding ice cream, banana bread matcha and Marianne ice cream sandwich. All was good.

    New ice cream spot in town! YAY!! Clean interior and super welcoming staff. It doesn't seem the ice cream is made in house as the flavors have labels that include where the ice cream is from, such as Mitchell's, Double Rainbow, etc. Kind of like a curation of various unique flavors depending on the week/day/etc. Anyways, my daughter has gone here several times and have enjoyed the flavors. She's tried Ube, mango, and mint chip. The Ube isn't too sweet and has nice subtle flavors with some bits in there. She thought the mango was good, but didn't say much about it, and mentioned the mint chip tasted like fresh mint. I was amazed by the various flavors when I tried- churro, Mexican chocolate, unity, and more. I asked what some of them were as the name isn't clear to describe the flavor, and they were super knowledgeable. I got a single with Ube and the coconut. Both were excellent. Couldn't believe the coconut one was vegan. So good!! It is a bit pricey as it's $7 base for a single size, but would def come again to try more flavors and check out more of their offerings.

    This place is so good, I don't usually care about ice cream but yummmmm. They have a bunch of different ice cream brands which is what makes them unique, usually you get only one brand so if you don't love their type of ice cream you're out of luck. They rotate through flavors and have everything from double rainbow to curbside creamery. Soon they'll bring in Marianne's which is exciting. They have vegan, gluten free, and regular dairy ice cream. Basically everyone can find something they like here. The flavors they choose are top notch. There isn't anything I've tried that wasn't tasty. All kinds of interesting flavors too, so it's not just the basics. We will definitely keep coming back. The place is super clean and the service is great. It'll be good if they add some stools along the little wall counter top they have. Super easy parking.

    i just have to say, the vibes, the employees, the matcha, all 10/10. their banana bread matcha was absolutely delicious. i don't live in the area, but when i am in here, i will be back! they were kind enough to ask if the drink was okay, which is always something i appreciate as sometimes a first sip isn't always the best. but this matcha was amazing!

    Skores and Ube sccop

    I went here after a jaunt at a nearby park. It had just opened as of today and was expecting a huge line. We went on a super beautiful day and we had no line to wait in. They had a couple of flavors to choose from and the Scoop gals were super friendly and helpful. They are different ways to get your scoops as cups or cones. The ice cream was good but the prices were a little steep for 2 separate scoops. They had different flavors I would like to try and maybe get some toppings like chocolate sprinkles.

    Generous scoops! Enthusiastic staff! A nice variety of flavors with lots of vegan and gluten free options for those who need or want them! A bit on the pricey side. But very excited to welcome a new ice cream shop to town. We tried mango, peanut butter + jelly and mint chip. They were all a nice treat.

    Earl Grey Matcha Latte

    I am thrilled to see that we now have a real matcha spot open up in Lamorinda. The staff was so friendly and helpful. They were thoughtful and attentive in their hand whisking of my matcha but also efficient and I was in and out in no time. I am still dreaming of the Earl Grey matcha latte - the color, consistency, and sweetness were all perfect. Really looking forward to going back and trying more of their speciality drinks. PLEASE visit and support this wonderful local business!!!

    Earl grey matcha

    Their matcha is probably my favorite in the area. I keep thinking about their earl grey matcha. The earl grey complimented the matcha flavor so well. Loved there are dairy alternatives too. Their ice cream was good too. Tried their lychee and lavender flavors. I'm a lychee lover and it did not disappoint. I would definitely go out of my way to come back here in the future.

The food…read moreitself was delicious the Gravlox Eggs Benedict was the standout, and you absolutely cannot leave without trying the Snickerdoodle cookie. It was fantastic! The latte was okay, but the food definitely took center stage. The staff were very friendly and well-intentioned, but the communication was lacking. Our entire group found the ordering process to be quite confusing. It wasn't immediately clear where to go or how the flow worked, which took away a bit from the otherwise great vibe. Overall, a great spot for a meal.

    Didn't know there was a Sideboard in Lafayette! Had to try it. Same menu, same pastries and baked…read moregoods, same food plating, and same ambience as Danville. What I didn't like is that no one comes out to check any outdoor tables that need to be cleared. I went in and asked a young man behind the counter if someone could buss a couple tables we were hoping to sit at. He didn't smile. He said he'd do it for us. Well, he never came out. I found another older gentleman if he could clear out some tables. He happily obliged. With a smile! And said, "I will do that right now." While we were eating, it was this same man who cleared tables. He's the best! Friendly and always smiling. Meanwhile, the first young man I asked originally, walked past dirty tables. He walked by a dirty table twice. Anyway... we ordered: Flat Iron Steak Sandwich - flavorful and delicious Avocado Toast - I love that the avocado is seasoned. I wish the bread was a little more toasted and that the arugula was seasoned or drizzled with olive oil. SB Cheddar Burger - I love that their patty was well-seasoned bursting with flavor! Delicious!! The fries were also great! Enjoyed the ketchup with its smoky flavor.

    The fam and I have been going to Likikoi since they've opened, mostly for convenience purposes…read more Started out amazing, but as we ordered more and more, there's been quite a bit of inconsistency. Will we get good or mediocre drinks today? Will our drinks be accurate or would we need to spend some more time to get our drinks fixed? Always a gamble, but hey, I do love to gamble (usually in a different setting lol). Sometimes the drinks are really good. The ones I've had the most consistencies are their house milk tea and their tropical fruit tea. Recommendation is to order everything as-is since if things (such as sugar level) are adjusted, it's most likely watered down. Luckily the drinks aren't way too sweet, but still a bit sweeter than I'd like, and I'd prefer a bit more tea flavor. My daughter has been big on their Thai tea, but after some inconsistencies with flavor, she's switched to their matcha horchata drink. Pretty good, and they have other kinds of drinks like that too. My son likes the house milk tea with lychee jelly, and the husband enjoys the Oreo drinks here, but they don't taste right in my opinion. I like their house milk tea, jasmine milk tea, tropical fruit tea, and once a while, their ube taro drink. On the safe side, I normally stick with tropical tea and house milk tea at this location. Props to Lilikoi for having some "unique" drinks such as mango almighty (mango smoothie with tajin and chamoy), various horchata drinks, and more. They seem to specialize more in the tropical fruit teas, so highly recommend for those.

    First tried Lilikoi in 3/2022, right around when they first opened. I had ube horchata with boba…read moreand I wasn't able to taste much of the ube flavor. Since I went close to when they first opened, I thought they would get the kinks worked out so I wanted to try again before I judged. I came today (2/4/2025) after a doctor's appointment. I noticed they have ube coffee on the menu. Unfortunately, the employees told me they were out of ube. I ordered the Thai milk tea with no ice at 50% sweet. Given the heavy rain and cold weather, I asked if they could make the drink hot and they said they don't do hot drinks. Really? Every boba spot I've been to in the 4.5 years I've lived in Contra Costa County - including Sharetea, Mr. Green Bubble, Teaspoon, and Yi Fang - offer hot drinks. Everywhere EXCEPT Lilikoi. As for the drink itself, I could taste the Thai tea flavor somewhat but it seemed a bit watered down. I've had better Thai milk tea elsewhere. The drink cost $5, which is less compared to other boba spots. But I'd rather pay a bit more for drinks that don't tasted watered down. I don't think I'll return, even if in the area.
