Rain or Shine is one of my favorite ice cream places ever. I love their classic flavors and I always like seeing the seasonal flavors! My go-to is the Malted Milk Chocolate Honeycomb; it's a great chocolate flavor and the crunchy bits of honeycomb are delightful. I think the sizes here are also really great; would recommend at any time of the year, in any weather! read more

I got the roasted strawberry and blueberry lemon curd ice cream. Although it was tasty the strawberry basically tasted like regular strawberry ice cream. I really enjoyed the blueberry lemon curd ice cream. The lemon curd almost made it feel like it was custardy or cheesecakey I also sampled the black current lemon lime sorbet. However, I couldn't taste any hint of black current. lt tasted mostly of citrus. read more

Outstanding flavors! The 4 scoop sampler was nice to try and share. Here are our flavor experiences. London Fog (5): Wonderful tea flavor! Light. Black currant lemon lime sorbet (3): Some liked it, some did not. The black currant and lemon is very tart and strong... which I like. Others felt it was too strong. Cracked Mint (5): Yes! I love mint so this was a no brainer for me. Pair that with dark chocolate shavings. Delicious! Roasted Strawberry (5): Another winner. Subtle roasted flavor, but we felt subtle was perfect with this. Natural strawberry flavor. Very good. Honey Lavender (5): another subtlety but done well. Nothing overpowering but lavender was present and had a nice essence to it. Overall, we loved this place! read more

Rain or Shine Ice Cream on 3382 Cambie Street We have a nickname for this expensive dessert restaurant: " Rain and Shine Ice Cream " as this is a fact that we are living in Raincouver that there's no stopping for their loyal customers to go out to enjoy this adorable dessert after lunch and dinner. Remark #1 Service is good, hardly have any complaints even having a long line up. Difficult to recommend which one is my favourite goody's. I could stay overnight to try all of their products! Remark #1. Few times with heavy snow and black "Shine" ice on the road read more

We checked out Rain or Shine after dinner one night and absolutely loved it! The ice cream was creamy, flavorful, and full of mix ins. So many to choose from as well! Service was friendly and prompt. It was a lively environment as well - fun place to enjoy an after dinner treat. Also, we went on a rainy night, so I can confirm that that are open Rain or Shine! Highly recommend! read more

Rain or Shine Ice Cream in Vancouver is honestly the vibe. You get two samples each before ordering and the staff was super patient while I took forever deciding. Tried a bunch of flavors over a few visits and tbh the coffee toffee is the move. Service: 10/10 (free samples) Seating: 8/10 (can get crowded) Food: 9/10 (coffee toffee ice cream) Drinks: 10/10 (free water) read more

Stop reading and go get some of this ice cream asap! I give Rain or Shine 10/10 tasty spoonfuls Ok if you still want to read a review, mom got the Key Lime Pie and loved it. I tried a bite and good lord, tastes exactly like key lime pie. I got a single scoop of the PB&J and the malted milk chocolate. The PB&J is without the doubt the best ice cream I've ever eaten. Of course I'm a HUGE peanut butter lover so having PB as the base for the ice cream was heaven. The malted milk chocolate was also SOO GOOD but it was definitely sweeter compared to the PB&J so keep that in mind because it could give you a sweetness overload stomach ache. Definitely need to try this place out of you haven't. I promise you'll be glad you did. And then you'll want to come back again. read more

Great ice cream place on cambie. Very popular. We went in a Saturday night after 9pm and the place was packed. Tried the peanut butter and mint chip and they were pretty good. read more

I see why there's such a long line one hour before closing! We found this spot randomly and saw it was close by so decided to try it. They have seasonal summer flavors and allow you to try two samples. I ordered the London fog and coffee toffee and both were so good!! Perfectly blended coffee with small chucks of toffee. The London fog was creamy and had that early gray flavor mixed well with vanilla. read more

Always had a good experience at this place! The service is always fast, they always allow for taste testing, never fail to amaze you with new flavours and no matter how long the line is, you are never waiting for longer than 15mins. This time I got tried their blackberry goat cheese flavour and their passion fruit ale flavour. Both are seasonal and both are amazing! I initially wanted to try both these flavours just because they sounded fun, didn't think I would end up getting it!! But they were both so delicious!! The goat cheese added extra creaminess to the ice cream and complimented the blackberry so well. Even the passion fruit ale was refreshing and did taste like ale in an ice cream!!! Would highly recommend both those flavours for this summer. read more

Egg hunt 10/10- Cadbury eggs mixed in milk chocolate icecream, this was absolutely delicious and a limited edition seasonal flavor. There were lots of Cadbury eggs mixed into the icecream. The milk chocolate icecream base sweetness wasn't too intense which was nice. The waffle cone itself was pretty mid (wasn't fresh or hot, however we did get this late) but the icecream itself was phenomenal Chocolate malted honeycomb 9.47/10- this icecream was really good, not a huge fan of malted chocolate favor but they did this really well. The honeycomb pieces were covered in dark chocolate and huge, it added a lot of flavor. I felt like the pieces of honeycomb were a bit too big because sometimes you'd try having it with the icecream but it was too much. Also felt like this icecream was a bit too sweet. Still superb but I definitely liked the egg hunt one more This icecream place has a lot of really cool flavors and all are pretty tasty. Highly recommend! They have flights for a good price in which you can try 4 different flavors. read more

Good ice cream. They have really interesting monthly flavours and the regular flavours are also iconic. They have a vegan chocolate peanut on regularly, and 1 or 2 of the monthly specials are usually vegan. Compared to competitors, their ice cream isn't as creamy, particularly the vegan flavours, but it's still pretty good ice cream. Even though I prefer the texture of other ice cream like Earnest or Elephant Garden, I sometimes like Rain or Shine's flavour options better, and so I go to all of them regularly. The thing that I think Rain or Shine does better than anyone is actually the waffle cone, which is thick, almost like a cookie, and always fresh. It's a very substantial cone so my favourite way to enjoy the cone is actually in taco form on Taco Tuesday, where you can get a "taco" sundae with 2 scoops and a topping on a waffle cone taco shell which seems a little smaller than the waffle used for the regular cone. Another notable advantage of going to Rain or Shine over Earnest is that the lineup is never as long! I have all but abandoned eating dairy ice cream since there's very little reason to in my mind when there are so many good vegan options, so I was extra excited to see they have a vegan version of their matcha on this month, and not just plain but with strawberry for extra fun! The matcha is the real deal! read more

By far the best ice cream place in Vancouver. The flavours are more unique than another popular joint, Earnest. The service is always friendly and fast. You get to sample a few too. The original flavours are better than their seasonal, I feel like they're different but not inspiring enough for me to get a full scoop over the others. Hard to find seating inside but it doesnt really matter since it's most likely nice out if you're getting ice cream. read more

Sister bought containers of Banana Extravaganza and Ice Cream for Breakfast. Banana was inedible bc it had crystallized which is clearly a quality control issue. It all should have been thrown out but bc no one tested it or knows what bad ice cream is they're selling it. Ice Cream for Breakfast is just confusing and tastes like vanilla with some cinnamon and occasional unidentifiable chunks. I actually have such a beef with this place bc it is so busy but there have been so many disappointin visits. That it is busy shows how bad the ice cream situation is in Vancouver. Ben & Jerry's is a guarantee at least. read more

This place is to Vancouver what Molly Moons is to Seattle and Salt & Straw is to Portland. Unique, amazing, and creative. we tried the bacon and eggs, malted milk chocolate honeycomb, oatmeal brown sugar, and poached pear chai. They were all really good but we got the honeycomb and pear ones. The flavor of the pear one was a bit overpowered by the other but both had layered flavor profiles and bits and pieces of their flavors in them read more

THEY REALLY POPPED OFF FOR THE JANUARY 2022 SEASONAL FLAVOURS. I had to order all of them. Amazing. Couldn't decide a favourite. If I had to rank them, I'd probably go (from fave to least) Cookies n Cream, Hazelnut , Snickerdoodle, Chocolate Peanut Butter (Vegan), Strawberry Cheesecake. For the non-seasonals; Chocolate Malted Honeycomb is a reliable favourite. I love when there are chunks of things in my ice cream and this place is like an elite Ben and Jerry's. I love trying their seasonal flavours. When I come, that's usually what I order. My only comment is that I wish they had more vegan flavours. read more

Cute little ice cream place on Cambie, comparable to Earnest's. The flavours are great although the seasonal ones are hit or miss. The double scoop is very generous so I usually get a single with 2 flavours. The waffle cones are also pretty good. Friendly servers and they allow samples. read more

We've come here quite a few times now, have no idea why I haven't posted a review for them yet! Our go-to flavours are the malted milk chocolate honeycomb, the honey lavender, and the cherry pie (from their seasonal menu). The chocolate honeycomb is basically malteser-y goodness with bits of honeycomb, and the honey lavender is light, floral and makes a refreshing dessert after a heavy meal. I'm hoping they decide to keep cherry pie as a permanent flavour since the last two times we visited, they've sold out of the pints! It has very generous pieces of delicious shortbread "crust" in it, and the subtly-tart cherry offsets the sweetness. It's just really great. I'd always felt there was missing when having the pints at home and realized that it's the cone! So I highly recommend getting your scoop in a waffle cone, it just completely elevates the experience. read more

Came here to grab some ice cream after dinner. The amount of ice cream they give you justifies the price. Honestly, for me, even a kids size is enough because they give you so much. It was creamy (not icy) and light; it doesn't have that feeling where it weighs you down. There was a line up when we went, but it moves quickly so don't let that deter you from getting some ice cream! Honey Lavender: lavender taste is prominent, but not overpowering. A good choice if you enjoy a lighter ice cream flavor. London Fog: very creamy and not too sweet. read more

The variety of flavours, the aroma, the texture, the creaminess are what have won my heart and my sweet tooth! They also have a mission of sourcing the fresh, natural, sustainable, local, seasonal and organic whole ingredients whenever possible. How great is that?! I've tried 4 of their flavours ranking as follows until I expand my collection. :) 1. Honey lavender - vibrant aroma of lavender paired with the just right honey sweetness. Sooo good! 2. Chocolate - very chocolatey and not too sweet 3. Strawberry Earl grey - strawberry and Earl grey flavours were too subtle. Maybe the aroma of lavender (another flavour) overpowered it. Perhaps having this flavour alone is more appropriate. 4. London fog - too sweet by sampling The waffle cone was fresh and tasty with a solid build. It does not become soft easily, which is a nice companion of the ice cream. They offer cup, waffle cone, gluten free cone, single one flavour, single two flavours (half scoop each), kids size, flights (4 flavours), and a pint to take home. The lineup tends to be busier after dinner. 10 to 15 minutes of wait is normal. Other time of the day varies. Sometimes no wait at all! When you are getting the pint to take home, you don't have to queue at the regular ice cream lineup. The left side of the counter is designated for the pint to go. read more

Loving local creamery shop, interesting seasonal flavors of ice cream. The basic vanilla ice cream is with real vanilla not extract. Chocolate is the same, high quality chocolate. Had the salted caramel with Earl tea, great taste. Highly recommended read more

TACO TUESDAY!! Such a great mid-week treat. It's a lovely walk after dinner to get two ice cream tacos to share. Everyone's happy.

Rain or Shine might just beat on Earnest Ice Cream for me and that's a shocking statement for me because I tend to bring tourists to Earnest all the time but I think this might change. I've hit up Rain or Shine in Kits (great location to grab a scoop and walk around Kits or the beach) and Cambie and 17th. I ALWAYS get the Malted Milk Chocolate Honeycomb. So satisfying when you have a hankering for chocolate. Do it! Most recently I went to redeem my free pint of ice cream that I got for donating blood. Okay, first of all.. how selfless are the owners of this company to give away HUNDREDS of pints of free ice cream for those who donate blood? How can I not support a local organization that would do such a thing.. but in addition, the staff are always super friendly and the ice cream is delicious. I opted for the **honey lavender** tub that evening and it has a strong lavender flavour with little pieces of lavender. It's refreshing, creamy and light. If you're in Vancouver, definitely check out this ice cream joint. read more

Interesting ice cream but its a bit pricey even a kids size was too much not creamy enough I prefer Earnest ice cream

I went here again on Dec 18th for an icecream fix. RSI is perfect every time especially this Cambie location, and I never had any bad experience at all. I sampled some flavours and got Blueberry Balsamic and London Fog; personally I like London Fog better at Earnest for strong richer flavour. I liked it overall. I paid 2 flavours on single for $5 so nothing to complain about. I hope they add fun interesting flavours one day. RSI still deserves 5 stars from me. read more

Ice cream places are popping up all over Vancouver. This trend doesn't show any signs of slowing down, so might as well enjoy the ride. Parking is available on the side streets. There are a free spots if one steps away from Cambie. Spend that spare change on another scoop instead. Like most of the competition, this place has a hipster feel to it. The interior is pretty bare, but that leaves more room for the lineup, which snakes out the door. Cool looking purple cow in the ceiling. Ice cream is within the typical range of $4-6. Obviously one should go for the double, as it is $1 more than the single. I tried the blueberry balsamic and the salted caramel. Tasty. What can I say. My only complaint is that they close early at 2200, but so do most other places around here. Definitely worth a try. read more

Love this place! I'm so glad that I finally have an ice cream spot and it's so close to work! Hard days will be easily fixed from now on :) This shop is so cute - it has an ice cream wallpaper on one side where you can take "candid" photos. Other gram-able stuff includes a sun with ice cream cones as the rays, and a purple cow They have daily specials on top of the flavours listed. You can also grab a few ice cream pints to go if you want to take their ice cream home. I got their blueberry balasamic and London fog flavours for only $5 - what a great deal! The blueberry was my favourite - definitely used real blueberries as they were plenty in each bite. Soft him of balasamic but this pairing was amazing. London fog - you can't go wrong ordering this because it's such a classic. The place knows how to balance their flavours because the tea isn't too overpowering Would definitely come back and recommend this place to anyone read more

This place has ice cream taco Tuesday. Simply fantastic concept and even better execution. I got two scoops of roasted strawberry with hot fudge on top and added candied hazelnuts. Dear god this was heavenly. Roasted strawberry was probably the best strawberry ice cream Iv ever had! It took me back to my childhood memories it was so good!!!! Waffle "taco shell" was crisp and airy. Easily the best waffle I have ever had!!! Candied hazelnuts were slightly salty very sweet and crisp. This was excellent. I highly recommend this place for taco Tuesday. I also recommend you do your do diligence and sample the flavours before deciding on scoops for your taco. The flavours I tried were all very strong and distinct. I found roasted strawberry to be the best. My other friends chose chocolate with hot caramel, and salted caramel with hot caramel and they were also very pleased. We will all be returning for Taco Tuesday. The line was well worth the wait. As for atmosphere the place is charming and the staff is very helpful and we're letting us try samples in line (which I'm sure helped speed up everyone's ordering). Also nice there was a tip feature on interac which is easier than tip jar since cash on hand is becoming more of a rarity. Highly recommend!!!!!! read more

My family and I were craving some ice cream after spending all day downtown for father's day so we decided to drive down to Rain or Shine! There was quite a bit of a lineup and they only take card at the moment. There were some seasonal flavours available, my dad and I decided to get the strawberry cereal milk flavour and it was sooo good, it tasted like the cereal milk from strawberry kellogs. I also got the salted caramel flavour because it is my all time favourite from Rain or Shine; I got the singlescoop with 2 flavours. My mom got the chocolate hazelnut flavour and it was really good as well, it had a nice rich chocolate milk taste and crunch from hazlenuts, not too too heavy on the chocolate which she liked. We all got waffle cones with our ice cream because we love how fresh they are here at Rain or Shine, it also has a nice sweetness to it. All in all, Rain or Shine is a Vancouver staple when it comes to ice cream! read more
