After leaving a night walk at the beach we wanted something sweet. Scoops was open later and close by. The employees were welcoming and since it was later in the day they were out of a few flavors of ice cream. You can never go wrong with strawberry and they had some still. Prices are great and it cured our sweet tooth. Wound definitely stop back in again!
Came here around 9:30pm on a Saturday because my usual go to Lighthouse Ice Cream was closed and the An's Gelato line was wayyyyy too long. It was my first time having Scoops and I was pleasantly surprised at how good their Pistachio ice cream was!! I'm pretty picky when it comes to pistachio, I really hate the powdery fake ones but at Scoops it tasted on par with Venchi pistachio - nutty and creamy. It was so smooth in texture too, almost gelato like which was impressive! I also loved the fact that there were 3 ice cream places within a block from one another. Def a good option for late night ice cream
Really delicious ice cream shop - can't go wrong with classic flavors and lots of topping options! Got the cookies & cream, vanilla bean & their brown sugar cookie dough brownie
i loved this place so much, i was walking with my family down ocean beach after dinner and saw this ice cream spot and wanted to give it a try. unexpectedly i loved the flavors i tried. I tried the mango sticky rice limited flavor and it was unmatched with anything i ever tried before. the costumer service was great and they were super nice giving the opportunities to try new flavors. the spot was cute but kinda small, only a couple tables inside. But they had a spot for water and napkins. Thank you so much, will come again! :)
If this photo doesn't display how wonderful the ice cream is then i don't know what will. The pistachio flavor was THE CREAMIEST ice cream i have ever had. And the hazelnut cookies and cream was excellent. This place had a decent line which is always a good sign and we weren't disappointed. Staff were very friendly and they do provide samples. Plus I loved the wall of doggie polaroids - so cute!
My cousin was raving about the crepes here and she wasn't wrong! First of all they're freshly made and perfectly packed with the right amount of filling. We had the brown butter crepes which were so buttery (almost too much) but the crepes were so well done we couldn't stop ourselves. Would definitely visit again and recommend!
I was in the mood for ice cream after dinner at La Dona. The other place had a line, but I remembered Scoops from walking around last time and thought I'd give it a try. It's on the strip so lots of walking traffic. They have some tables outside which is nice. Inside smells so good! Looking at the menu, the passion fruit sorbet caught my eye. I also thought the brown sugar? butter? cookie dough? brownie? looked interesting...and it sure was good! Since it was Cako's birthday, I got her some peanut butter ice cream with a little whipped cream...she really liked this! Definitely worth stopping into if you're in the neighborhood. It's good to know there's another sweet option! Cako Approves!
Love the unique ice cream flavors served here alongside the classics. I tried a chocolate brownie flavor and a scoop of mint chip, while my boyfriend opted for honeycomb and a coffee flavor in a waffle cone. Everything we tasted was delicious. I've seen them advertise a sweet corn flavor at one point and I'm hoping that one day it will be back on the menu so I can try it next! Super cute vibe within the store and the staff are quick and friendly with getting everyone the combos they're wanting.
SWEET REVIEW: CAPTAIN 619 & THE GENERAL "TASTE THE OFFER YOU CAN'T REFUSE" Listen here, see? Me and The General--my consigliere in all things creamy--made our first visit to Scoops Ocean Beach, and let's just say... this joint's got flavors that'd make the Five Families jealous. The Order: - Vanilla Bean (solid, classy, like a clean suit). - Strawberry (fuggedaboutit--this is my kryptonite, capiche? One taste and you're sleeping with the fishes... of addiction). - The General's Move: Chocolate Brownie. She don't play games--this dame called it "a hit so rich, even Don Corleone would pay tribute." Now let's talk business: - Strawberry Ice Cream: A masterpiece. Pure, no funny business. So good, I ordered a shake to-go... but madonn'! That shake? Watered down like a rat singing to the feds. Stick to the virgin strawberry--it's the real capo dei capi. - The Crew: Shoutout to Ali, the Don of Dairy, and her crew. These soldati let us sample flavors like we owned the place. Friendly? They treated us like family--and in our line of work, that's respect. - Waffle Cones: Yo, listen--these cones? They're the godfather of crispy. The smell? Permeates the joint like a backroom deal. Taste? Like a San Francisco fortune cookie whispered secrets to a Belgian baker. Sweet, toasty, with a hint of "you just made an offer you can't refuse." Final Word, capeesh? San Diego's got a new flavor empire. If you ain't stopping by Scoops OB, you're missing out on the sweetest protection racket in town. Remember: The strawberry's your kryptonite. Ali's your go-to. And The General? She'll whack your doubts with a chocolate spoon. -- Captain 619 (& The General, who never leaves witnesses... or uneaten ice cream).
Solid place to get a nice cold, sweet treat while in the area. They had some interesting flavors on the menu board, and did allow for sampling when asked. The staff were real cool, and were great even though we were a larger group that came in. I really enjoyed the ice cream, and I'd say they gave appropriate sized scoops. The whole group had positive things to say about the ice cream. It was good and a nice treat to enjoy there or while walking around the very interesting neighborhood.
My friends and I wanted to get dessert after dinner and we wanted to try somewhere new. So we checked this place out. Best. Decision. Ever! If you haven't been here yet you need to go. I have heard that there is always a line out the door but when we got there it was empty so we got there at a great time!! Their ice cream is sooo delicious! I couldn't stop saying how good it was and that I couldn't wait to go back! I got one scoop and they are very generous with their scoops which is awesome!! I mean who doesn't love that!? lol They do run out of flavors fast and they do update the boards but they do have a lot of other amazing and delicious flavors still left to try and taste. The service is great! Everyone in there is absolutely amazing and nice! You are allowed to do samples of the ice cream. They are very generous with the samples. The line does move fast so don't worry you're never going to have to wait long. The shop is super cute! Love the vibe. They also have ice cream for your pets. And if you buy one for them they will put a photo of your pet on their wall. They have seating inside and outside.
Tried out the new ice cream spot on Newport--Scoops--and it totally hit the spot. They've got a bunch of fun flavors and a ton of topping choices. I went with chocolate and added peanut butter cups, and the best part? They actually mix the toppings in instead of just tossing them on top. It's the little things, you know? The place is dog-friendly too, which I love. They'll even snap a pic of your pup for their wall of fame and offer a little doggie scoop--so cute. You can choose from cake, waffle, or sugar cones, and there are a few outdoor tables if you want to hang out and enjoy. Definitely a sweet addition to OB!
Here's the Scoop! Ocean Beach is it's third ice cream shop open here, the first and second are in La Jolla. Street parking can be a challenge. Note: Wednesdays the farmers market is on Newport which is the same street this ice cream shop is on and some streets are blocked off, so parking is more of a challenge. While out and about in Ocean Beach, I stopped inside this newly opened ice cream shop. It is small but had limited outdoor and indoor seating, was bright clean and as I observed the staff of servers behind the counter, they wore new gloves before serving each customer, and this practice of cleanliness scores high in my book. The nice and cool server, Sam washed her hands and put on new gloves before serving me and she had a genuine positive attitude, and I made sure I said I appreciate and thanked her :) The menu also offers coffee drinks, açai bowls and crepes. It's my understanding that Scoops sources it's ice cream from Van Leeuwen ice cream, who makes hand crafted ice cream using simple and natural ingredients. The ice cream menu listed classic ice cream flavors as well as vegan flavors. The later is what appealed to me and chose the Oat strawberry shortcake and the Oat Chocolate Chip cookie dough in the smallest cup, both flavors were not too sweet and just so yummy! Even my pup Fendi liked it. Some of the Ice cream flavors are seasonal so new flavors are created and I would certainly agree with their moniker: 'Living the Sweet Life,' with Scoops ice cream. Recommend!!
Honestly they have good ice cream and also very beautiful but not a place I would go again. Got the Brown Sugar Cookie Dough Brownie was nice but I didn't really get any brown sugar cookie dough flavor in there. Nice brownie chunks though. Strawberry rhubarb cheesecakes also did not have the strawberry or the rhubarb flavor coming through. It was mostly just cheesecake flavor ice cream, and bits of cheesecake crust throughout. Also saw the sign that they actually serve Van Leewen ice cream and not a homemade ice cream. They also have a dog special which we got for our dog. It was basically a giant amount of whipped cream with some peanut butter yogurt frozen bites on top. read more

I remember I tried Scoops a long time ago at La Jolla Shores when I lived at there. This time I found their new location at Ocean Beach. I was in ice cream mood and went in for a small split scoop. There was one customer in front of me, but the staff was chatting with him and his dog for a while, so I waited for like 5 plus minutes. When it was my turn, there's another customer behind me, the staff was a little rush, I think it's not her fault because it was literally only herself in the store. I think she needs a helper. I tried a few flavors, and to be honestly, none of them really impressed me comparing to other gelato and ice cream shops. I don't think Scoops is the same like the previous time in my memory, it was so good, it's below my expectation this time. read more

We went last night around 7:30 and it was delicious! I got the strawberry matcha special on a cake cone. They were unfortunately out of waffle cones but it was understandable because it was pretty late on a beautiful day outside. The employees were very kind and gave us napkins without us asking!! read more

Stumbled upon this little gem after lunch and was welcomed by two friendly workers. We sampled a few flavors and loved the cafe latte swirl! Ended up getting peanut butter brownie honeycomb and cafe latte swirl on a waffle cone. Clean shop, great service -- a must-try if you're craving something sweet! read more

We are never in OB, but I'm glad we were there early enough to pop into Scoops right before they closed. We might've rushed dinner to ensure we had time haha. The vegan flavors caught my eye, there were a lot to choose from which is nice. I ordered the vegan banana bread pudding and threw caution to the wind with a non dairy brown sugar cookie dough brownie. So creamy! The brownie bits were plentiful, but I think my scoop just didn't hit the right spot for cookie dough. The banana bread pudding scoop was delightful! It was such a good mix of tasting like banana bread with bread chunks to also tasting like banana pudding. I tried the blue jasmine passion fruit swirl and oh my goodness it was so good! I'm glad I know this is in OB for whenever I want to switch up my ice cream shop. read more

Checked out the newer scoops in OB! It's really hard to be disappointed by ice cream, but it's always an extra treat when the experience exceeds expectations. The staff were super friendly! They have a flavor for everyone... which took me a while to make a solid decision. Ultimately, I went with their coffee based I flavor. Very delish! It's super cute inside & I loveeeeeeeeeee the dog wall! So OB, so cute. I will def be back to try other flavors! read more

First off, love this new location! I'm also a big fan of their La Jolla locations. Right off the bat, the staff is super friendly & welcoming. All of their recommendations were so good. I think my favorite thing about Scoops is that they have so many options to choose from, & tons of vegan ones at that! If I could stomach it, I would've gotten the strawberry, honeycomb & mango. But I went with the honeycomb flavor. Sooooo good, I'm still thinking about it. 10/10 def will be coming back read more

After having shawarma, there's an ice cream shop nearby. I randomly picked two flavors, coriander and pistachio, and they were surprisingly delicious! The shop is always crowded with customers, and sometimes there's a long queue. The prices are also very reasonable. Two scoops of two flavors cost 6.76. It's really suitable for one or two people to enjoy. read more
