This is like the best Ice cream shop in SoCal. First walking in it takes you back to Stranger Things Scoops Ahoy with its cool color vibes and graphics. Second the owner Ice cream crafter is award winning and the friendliest guy explaining alll his custom yummy creations. Third there is also a craft beer counter serving craft beer and wine along with beer and wine floats using the homemade ice cream. What is better than two of the best things in the world beer on tap and homemade crafted gourmet ice cream!!!! I scream for both! This ice cream artist has taken it up on flavors and has come up with some super delish unique items some that include a little beer in them to make them extra creamy and some non dairy made with coconut milk. You can taste your heart out as every flavor is temping and made of fresh natural ingredients. Definitely one of the best ice cream shops that i have come across and probably I think the best in SoCal. This place makes Handels look like baskin Robbin's and makes others like after and salt & straw look commercialized. Because this guy is crafting the ice cream that he knows the people want and takes ultra pride in his product. A must visit place - located at the end of old town Covina that is also worth a visit to dine at and walk around. I'm coming back for a beer float on their patio and to pick up one of their cool tshirts. They also sell by the pint. This is ice cream heaven at its best! read more

If you're anywhere near Covina, do yourself a favor and check out Scoops on Tap. This place is such a fun and unique spot--perfect for hanging out and treating yourself. The ice cream is amazing, with tons of great flavors. Everything tasted fresh and high quality, and the portions were generous without being over the top. The atmosphere is super laid-back and welcoming, and the staff were friendly and patient while we decided what to try (which isn't easy with so many good options). It's the kind of place you can bring friends, family, or even just stop by solo and still have a great time. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to again and again! read more

Solid ice cream place with a variety of options. Staff were friendly and offered samples. The shop has a few tables inside and outside. We sampled the butter flavors and It's Butter For You stood out the most to me. I liked the chunks of toffee in the butterscotch ice cream. Any of the flavors that have an orange border have a tiny bit of liquor in them that's safe enough for kids to eat. Flavors that have a red border are dairy free. The Ube Coconut tasted more coconut than Ube to me. I would come back if I'm in the area and I'm looking for a late night dessert. read more

Scoops on Tap has a bit of everything. They got ice cream, pop, beers, and wine. A one stop shop for desserts and drinks! It's not very big place, it's got a small indoor/ outdoor seating area and friendly staff. I recommend the chocolate for ice cream and also the root beer float. You can't really go wrong with either one, that is if you've got a sweet tooth! Perfect spot for date night or hangout spot with friends. read more

Very nice and very chill workers. You can ask for samples if you want to try their unique flavors before you commit to on. Or you could be like me and choose an ice cream flight! Best option for indecisive people like me. The icecream flavors do change occasionally so there's anyways something new. The icecream is good but I will say it is more on the sweeter side. I get a flight every time I go. They also have outdoor seating. read more

I honestly can't believe I've never reviewed Scoops before. I've been coming here once a month for the last few years to try their new rotations. My husband and I have the monthly tradition of trying the delicious samples then settling on a taster flight (4 kid scoops of different flavors). I look forward to it every month. Service has always been top notch. The inside has 3 small tables and 2 small bar areas. Very bright and colorful inside. Outside there are more tables. The ice creams are split by reoccurring, dairy free, and alcohol infused. Try as many samples as you'd like before deciding! The scoop sizes are very generous which is a big reason why I keep to the kid cups. The ice creams are always very creamy and delicious. Be on the look out for any toasted marshmallow bases, banana bases, or coffee bases. In my opinion, those are always home runs. Not too sweet, but always amazing! read more

My daughter loves Scoops On Tap and stopped by around 1 PM on May 9th to get a milkshake. She was there alone, and the employee working seemed annoyed because the line was growing and milkshakes take longer to make. Instead of just saying there would be a wait, he gave her attitude for ordering it. I understand being busy and understaffed can be stressful, but especially when a 14-year-old walks in alone, they shouldn't be made to feel uncomfortable for ordering something that's literally on the menu. Ice cream shops are supposed to be fun, welcoming places that bring people joy. Hoping this was just a bad moment and management can improve the customer experience because we've always enjoyed coming here otherwise. read more

This place is a hit every time we come. My kids absolutely love it and it's become one of those spots we go to whenever we get the chance. The flavors are great and they rotate a few monthly, which keeps things fun so you're not ordering the same thing every visit. Everything we've tried has been solid and the quality is consistent. The setup is unique too. Ice cream for the kids and beer or wine for the adults makes it an easy stop for the whole family to hang out and relax for a bit. The atmosphere is welcoming, the staff is friendly, and it just has that feel-good neighborhood dessert spot energy. Overall one of our favorite places in the area and definitely worth repeat visits. read more

Scoops on Tap is one of my go-to spots for ice cream. Scoops is located in downtown Covina. This place is always packed at night. When you enter, they have bar top seating on the left and the ice creams on display straight ahead. Each time we come by we are greeted by the staff. We have frequented Scoops many times so the staff would consider my husband and me as regulars. Each month, Scoops offers a variety of unique flavors, including some plant-based options. My personal favorite is the Ube Coconut, which is one of their regular flavors. I love the richness and creaminess their plant-based options offer. This past September, they released Mango Lassi. This was so good I purchased a pint before the month ended. Overall, if you are looking for one-of-a-kind house-made ice cream flavors Scoops is the best option in Covina. There's a flavor for EVERYONE! 10/10. read more

Scoops On Tap - butterbeer - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Covina, California

There's a little bit of everything for people who imbibe and people who like ice cream. I'm allergic to alcohol, but I'm a big fan of ice cream! There's seating inside and outside and I really like the neat ticker message board that flicks through some punny/funny quotes throughout our visit. The little line of color that sometimes flashes on is nice too. They also have their own merchandise for sale too, like shirts. Service was super friendly and informative. Letting us know about the business and all of the flavors. I got the ube coconut which is a solid and safe choice. It's plant based and vegan, which is nice too. Very creamy and sweet taste of ube, but not too sweet. Mouth was purple afterwards, true sign of happiness. The only reason I'm docking them off a star is that I have a friend who despises Scoops on Tap to the point where she'll visible grimace and go eugh each time we pass by or if it somehow comes up in a conversation. Whatever fruit flavored ice cream she got that time tasted fine in shop but as we walked out and she took more bites she said it tasted like rotting, over ripe fruit. I have no idea how the consistency got that bad or how night and day the difference was, but it is what it is. read more

Got a double scoop of ube and cookies and cream! Great combo! Definitely recommend :)

This place is a glorious monster -- half beer & wine bar, half ice cream parlor, and somehow it works. Like Frankenstein's creation, but instead of torches and pitchforks, you'll want a spoon and a pint. The staff are super friendly and eager to offer samples or steer you toward your next weirdly perfect combo. Ever had a cream ale float? Now's your chance. Feeling wizardy? Butterbeer ice cream awaits, Gryffindor. Inside's bright, busy, and buzzing, but you'll want to relax out on that patio anyway. Unique, fun, and absolutely worth the stop for any foodie, beer nerd, or ice cream lover. Which should cover...pretty much all of you. read more

What a wonderful idea - ice cream with bold flavors and ice cream was booze! Ever wanted a float with a kick? They have many choices on tap to get with their very delectable ice cream. When you walk in, they allow you to sample their ice creams with some with diary and non-dairy. Some have infused alcohol, like rum for example, and fruity ones as well. I really enjoyed the butter beer, millionaire pie, ube coconut and matcha with strawberry. This place has really friendly servers and medium amount of places to sit, indoor and outdoor. Wonderful for a date! Next time, I will definitely try icecream with some beer on tap. read more

Service and taste 5/5!! Located in the Downtown Covina strip. We were greeted by the owner and oh man he took his time explaining the concept and flavors!

It was my first time here the other night and the service provided was extraordinary. The gentleman working was so friendly and took the time to explain the different flavors and let us sample as well. Their flavors are pretty unique and I like how they have rotating/limited flavors. I ended up getting a classic sundae with 2 flavors, the madagascar vanilla bean and a seasonal limited flavor that I forgot the name of. The ice cream was delicious and so was the waffle cup. I will definitely return if I'm ever in the area to see what limited flavors they have! read more

Omg the best ice cream i have ever eaten. I made a yelp account just to review this place. If i could give this place 10 stars i would. The man im assuming was the owner was SO NICE. I come in and he tells me about all the flavors and how they are all made in house, which ones have dairy, and so on. He gave me like 7 samples without me even asking just to make sure i got the flavor i really wanted. Also did not skimp out on the portions at all. I got a single and i got 2 flavors both with full scoops. I had already eaten a lot before i took the picture. They had indoor and outdoor seating and the place was so cute. I will be back. read more

I have to give this place all 5 starts. Not only because their ice cream is amazing BUT also because of their staff. I was immediately welcomed with a hello followed by, "Would you like a tasting?" Uhh yes, and let me just add that every time I got a different tasting, the worker would give me an explanation of what was inside of it. Which you don't get that at other places . I appreciated being asked if I was allergic to almonds or nuts when I was introduced to a tasting . I felt they really cared about their costumers. Last year they had a charcuterie ice cream flavor with blue cheese. I know it's sounds ..... not appetizing. However, trust the flavors .... It blew my mind and I ended up getting a pint. Their ice cream flavors change often, except for 4 that they always keep on tap. Aside from ice cream they also sell wine and beer. They have a wine and ice cream flight as well as a beer and ice cream flight. I haven't tried any of those but I'll be returning for the flight next time. I got a single scoop split half matcha half butterbeer on a cone. Aaaaand oh my gaaaawwwd. They are not stingy with their ice cream. It was indeed too much for me and I couldn't finish it all. The ambiance was relaxing and very much family friendly. Can I just add.... The most cleanest public restroom I've ever been in. This place 10/10 read more

The rotating flavors keep this place fun and exciting! This month, they had quite a few delicious options. As an indecisive Libra, I went with the tester flight so I could try multiple flavors. It came with four perfectly sized scoops, which I appreciated since it didn't feel like too much ice cream. The outdoor seating is nice, you get fresh air and a chance to see what else is going on in downtown Covina. I'm looking forward to seeing what new flavors join the rotation next month. read more

Top ice cream places in the SGV! First time trying this place and I loved it. Service is a 10/10! They explain everything to you and are super friendly. They have different options as well like non dairy which was nice. Tried about 5 diff types of flavors and all were so good. You can tell they use high quality ingredients here so for me it's worth the price. This place will def be in my go-to places for ice cream! read more

Scoops On Tap sells handmade, fresh ice cream. I ordered the Thai Tea ice cream (single scoop - $5.99). Delicious!! Scoops on Tap is exemplary. Service is extremely friendly and helpful. Staff patiently explained the options, and staff immediately offered menu ice cream samples. I arrived Friday (around 4PM), and I was helped immediately. I immensely enjoyed my scoop of Thai Tea ice cream. Although its portion is dainty, it's very satisfying. The ice cream is cold, silky, and flavorful. It's memorable. I immediately imagined sipping a refreshing cup of high-quality Thai Tea. Curiously enough, Scoops On Tap also sells craft beer and wine. Regardless, Scoops On Tap offers delicious, high-quality ice cream selections for all ages. Check their main website for current flavors since it appears to rotate. Scoops On Tap is very clean. Despite the limited space, the area feels spacious. There's inside and outside seating with clean, glossy tables and chairs. Ambiance feels modern and attractive. The location also includes a restroom. [Quick Note: Front parking is limited; however, there's a hidden backlot for customer parking.] Overall, Scoops On Tap (Covina) is sincerely epic. The ice cream and service is superb. If you love ice cream, I definitely recommend. read more

Super friendly service. Explained all the flavors we had questioned and graciously offered free samples. Husband enjoyed his Butter Beer flavor and I enjoyed the Ube coconut. Super chilly inside. Barely no seats inside. More available out in the patio out front of the store. Would definitely come back to try other flavors. They also offer beer at their store so be sure to check that out, too. read more

Fun vegan flavors, not just boring ones that we see as only options everywhere. The service was great too which is mainly why I decided to leave the review. The gentleman working tonight took the time to warmly greet us, explain the flavor differences and what was nondairy friendly, and offer us samples. Not sure if he was the owner or not but he was awesome! Definitely will be back. (They also had some alcohol infused ice creams etc. but I didn't ask too about those lol) read more

Scoops On Tap - Ube Coconut - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Covina, California

This is one of the better ice cream shops you'll ever set foot in. The interior is simple and has a couple tables and a counter. They have a patio in front with lots of seating too. The artisan flavors are ones you won't find anywhere else. The nice young woman behind the counter offered a taste of anything I wanted. Curious, I tried Alfajores which was delicious but I ultimately decided to get two scoops in a cup: Butterbeer and New Leaf. I sat on the patio and devoured these ultra-creamy treats. The Butterbeer was a lightly flavored butterscotch ice cream with sea salt and bits of English toffee. The contrasting textures of the creamy butterscotch and crunchy pieces of toffee was wonderful. New Leaf was my favorite though, perhaps my new all-time-favorite. Their description: Vermont maple surup and fresh peanut butter ice cream with a stout infused fudge ripple from Bottle Logic and candied chocolate graham cracker. Wow!!!! There was a lot going on with this ice cream flavor-wise. Every ingredient was discernable and they melded together perfectly. I truly hated it when I took the last bite because I wanted the pleasure I was experiencing to never end. I am rarely ever in Covina but will definitely stop in for more of their ice cream anytime I'm in the area. I may even make it an ice cream destination! read more

Awesome ice cream selection that changes monthly. Any leftover flavors for the month, they pack and sell in pints until they run out. Great guys behind the counter - helpful with choosing a flavor and they have dairy, non-dairy, plant based, and infused with alcohol, (mostly just for flavor). They can also do half and half single scoops if you can't decide. I'll definitely be back to check out next month's flavors. read more

A super friendly neighborhood ice cream shop nestled in Downtown Covina. Even though it was a chilly Saturday night, we all know dessert belongs in a separate stomach. Huge shoutout to the amazing manager who kindly let us bring our small dog inside. It was a thoughtful gesture, especially with outdoor seating available. The staff was warm and welcoming, happily offering us plenty of samples to try. I eventually chose a spirit-infused flavor, and even the kid-sized scoop was generous. It was creamy, flavorful, and hit the spot. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area and I'm eyeing the butter beer ice cream next time. read more

I first tried their unique alcohol-infused ice cream flavors at our local brewery event at Bottle Logic in Anaheim. As one of the many vendors at the event, their enticing flavors mixed in with local signature brews kept me and my husband coming back again over the multi-day event and when I learned that their brick-n-mortar location was near West Covina, I vowed to eventually visit. I treated my sister to share a double scoop and the staff that greeted us were friendly and patient as we tasted their samples of non-alcoholic flavors which were many and unique as well. Inside is quite small with some tables and the interior decorations especially highlighting the alcohol options was immediately eye-catching. The weather was a dreary gray but we opted to enjoy the street patio seating. While the ice cream did unfortunately melt quickly outdoors, I recommend this place to those more local who haven't tried it. Parking might be difficult since street parking is taken up by many other local businesses and restaurants but very walkable after filling up on a treat. read more

I had this place on my list of ice cream shops to try for the longest time and finally got the opportunity. I ordered a salted caramel apple and strawberries and cream double scoop which was about $10. This was some of the best ice cream I've ever had. The salted caramel apple was made with hints of hard apple cider alcohol (less than 0.1% alcohol). I could taste the hard cider flavor and the caramel apple. The slight hints of salt enhanced the taste of the apple flavor. The strawberries and cream was a mix of strawberry and vanilla. They are both my favorite ice cream flavors so this was delicious for me. Overall, flavor and texture of the ice cream was 11/10. The texture for both the ice creams were very creamy and sticky. This is the spot I would recommend to friends and family. I will definitely be coming back if I'm ever in the area. read more

We both got the November 2024 seasonal flavors and they were great! A little heavy on the alcohol flavor for me, but I don't drink. It may not be something kids will like. It's nice to be able to sit outside and do some people watching as well as look at the grassy park across the street. It's at the quieter end of the street. Staff asked us if we wanted to test any flavors before we ordered and were helpful in describing their current seasonal favorites. read more

Pros: 1. Friendly staff 2. Free samples 3. Good vegan flavors! Not just sorbets 4. Clean restroom Cons: 1. No splitting flavors 2. Too many chocolate chips in the vegan wake up call flavor-- It was like 70% chocolate chips All free street parking in front of the store. read more
