    Creamy, yummy ice cream!
    Laura R.

    This was another spot we tried last Sunday. We walked by this place and the line was out the door! We came back around some time later and the line was better. I can see why it's so popular. The ice cream is very creamy and rich.... not overly sweet. I had a chocolate vegan option and my boyfriend had the pistacho. We sat down to enjoy our dessert, so yummy! The server was very patient and helpful. The establishment is very colorful. They have a small seating area inside. Definitely recommend trying this place!

    Had unique flavors with their orange one being a fan fav. They offer a max of 3 flavor samples per person. Ended up picking heavenly honey flavor cuz it had a nice caramel/toffee like taste. Waffle cone is a $1.50 add on and a bit stale so prob a pass next time. Single scope was $6.50.

    I stopped by Ojai Ice Cream on a whim whilst in town with my family! Since I had never been before, making a decision on which flavor to choose was naturally difficult. However, they had free tastings which made it easier! I ended up opting for the honeycomb crunch. As soon as we paid, my family and I walked around Ojai whilst enjoying the ice cream. It was soooo good. The ice cream was creamy and adorned with crunchy bits of honeycomb. It wasn't too sweet and was gone all too quickly. Overall, Ojai Ice Cream was a quick but delicious visit. It's right in the middle of town which makes for an easy stop whilst in Ojai. Definitely give it a go if you're in the mood for a sweet treat!

    We enjoyed some yummy local ice cream before the movie across the street to the Ojai Playhouse. The shop was cute and charming with classic tiles flooring, white subway tile walls, and retro soda fountain pharmacy lighting. Although the line was 20 deep, it moved rather quickly. The staff was friendly. I sampled a few yummy flavors like the Valley Lavender and the Ojai Orange...but what I was really craving after dinner was an affogato. The freshly brewed double shot of espresso matched perfectly with the Raspberry Chocolate ice cream with yummy chunks of chocolate pieces. Looking forward to enjoying other flavors on my next visit.

    Ojai Ice Cream is a charming little spot right in the heart of downtown Ojai -- the perfect place to stop after a meal or while strolling through town. We tried the toffee coconut and triple chocolate flavors, and both were exceptional -- rich and flavorful without being overly sweet or heavy. It totally hit the spot after some pizza nearby. A classic, old-school ice cream shop with great flavors and a relaxed, small-town feel. Definitely worth a visit when you're in Ojai.

    Whooooooaaaa! My friend and I cannot stop raving about this place! From the great customer service to the delicious ice cream. We each got a cone and enjoyed it at Libbey Park. They're super busy with a line out the door but it moves fast. You can taste as many flavors as you want . Love that and they're so patient too , request after request ;) Cute decor. I loved the pop of orange.

    The line was LONG when we came in! It took some time to be helped. Our kids really enjoyed the ice cream. I did see the side of the tub labeled "Thrifty" ice cream. I found this interesting. But they did have their specialty ice creams that they make there, and those are very yummy. Especially the peanut butter one!!

    Orange Sorbet and Choco & PB mash

    This place had such a variety of flavors, and they were patient with us sampling some flavors that we only saw there. We got the orange sorbet and the choco PB mash and it was an amazing combo! Almost like an orange/dark chocolate Lindt bar.

    Food - Devine desert of Ice cream with unique flavors that knock your socks off! Let me tell ya, this concoction is on point! Probably the one of the best if not the best ice cream I've had in a while. So much so that I would make a trip to Ojai just to grab one and I am about 3 hours away! Lov the toffee Oreos and cherry ice cream. They also sell coffee and afogato. Wish they had this near where I live so I can totally get this! Service was good as well! Ambiance - it was a good and reminds me of a proper ice cream spot! Verdict - if it's not clear yet, you're a putz!

    Yummy yummy yummy! We got single scoops of black cherry, Ojai orange, and rainbow sherbet and everyone enjoyed! They have vegan and gluten free options as well. The line was out the door but moved pretty quickly, don't be daunted, get in line! Cute merch too! Employees were super efficient, kind, provided a sample when asked, and calm with all the customers! Located right on Main Street in Ojai, across from the park!

    Cute little spot right in the downtown Ojai area. Plenty of flavors to choose from. I liked it, but didn't love it. I didn't feel like it was quite creamy enough, there was just a depth of flavor that was missing.

    A stop we do whenever in Ojai. Cute shop with cute merch. Variety of flavors to choose from can't do wrong.

    This was probably one of my favorite experiences as a result of walking into a random store. I…read morewasn't sure what to expect when I walked in but I was immediately greeted by Carolina who welcomed me to try anything in the store. I knew Ojai was famous for its olive oils, but Carolina especially embodies mastery and craftsmanship as reflected in her offerings of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. As I was the only patron in her shop at the time, I was privileged with her showing me various unique combinations of balsamic and olive oil. She certainly lives up to the Italian stereotype of having good taste. She suggested against me buying food for my mother for Mother's Day, but she understood when I insisted that my mom is a foodie (where I get it from). Carolina herself is classy and refined, yet still so open and welcoming, all of which also is reflected in her store. It is thus no surprise that her shop has been around for over a decade. I hope her shop is there when I am 100! If there was ever a place to stop in Ojai, I would recommend this place. A truly unique experience, unparalleled. I am bringing my mom and all my other loved ones here.

We were also told that we could sample anything even if it was closed, which was great. We were focused on the balsamic vinegar. We tried the Blackberry Reserved Balsamic, and it was amazing. I didn't ask, but they have like a salad recipe that it would be paired with or possibly sell salad there as well. So glad we decided to stop by. The lady who helped us was kind and friendly. Overall, we will be returning since the service and tasting was a pleasant experience.

One of the hosts spotted our carrier and asked us what is inside. He then quipped how he hasn't seen a guinea pig at the restaurant before and directed us to a table outside. Mind you, it was hot and I could feel mosquitoes biting my exposed legs. It became unbearable in a matter of minutes. Moreover, my guinea pig requires a temperature controlled environment and can't survive in that heat. We put in an order and asked the server whether we can be seated inside. Once a table was made available, we were told we can move inside. I liked the table we were given in the back. They had three bathrooms inside. My boyfriend was disturbed by the bleeding fish display. He thought it was gruesome. As a vegetarian, honestly, I thought the same. I ate every bite of my curry. The female servers we talked to were nice. But the guy who came to pick up our clean plates wasn't very considerate. He took my rice bowl and it wasn't even empty. Then he dropped something he had taken from our table loudly on the floor right next to us and didn't even apologize or say a thing after. I liked the potatoes and curry I ate. But I'm still suffering from the mosquito bites because I have very sensitive and irritable skin. Plus I thought the service could definitely have been more friendly and courteous.

I did also see they had a matcha affogato so I had to get that to try. All the flavors we got where so good - Amethyst, Jolly Merman, OM, Pink. My husband and I have different likes so the one I didnt like he liked and the one he didnt like I liked. It worked out. The matcha affogato was perfect. Ice cream was delciious.

Where I do feel a bit stiffed is the açai bowl. It is reasonably priced at $6.65 for a small, which equals one scoop of mixture. I don't like bananas, so I asked for without and to "just add a few extra berries instead". When I was charged, there was a surcharge of $0.75 on the amount. I asked why the price difference and was informed that was for the extra berries. No substitutions apparently, even if you took a portion of the toppings off. The berries that came with the bowl were 4 (four!) small cut pieces of strawberries. That's it. Not 4 full strawberries, 4 cut pieces. They counted when they put them on each bowl. Yikes! I felt that whole interaction felt a bit sneaky to me. So pay attention to the final charges if you customize your order. Anyways, I understand that local businesses need to make ends meet, so I'm just deducting one star for it. Their kombucha is still bomb! *****edit after owner's response***** This is what I love about local businesses: The owner took the feedback and shared their perspective of their policy with me and in extension other customers who might read this review. I appreciate your response and clarification, Adam. Thank you for engaging with and being open to the feedback, and deriving an improvement that can be implemented immediately to prevent future miscommunications. I commend you for that! I do want to add that when I asked about it, the staff did politely and kindly explain the reason for the extra charge and reversed the customization request without any problems. And the team is always very accommodating with my other special requests such as extra ice in an extra cup. I can't state enough how great their kombuchas are!!!
