Sweet Tahoe Time at Kings Beach After spending the day at Kings Beach, we walked a few minutes over for ice cream. Thankfully there wasn't a line but the rush came after us. I got the 2 scoop cup (rocky road ice cream, pecan praline). It felt like a good size cup that was packed full. The seating was PLENTIFUL. Inside had tables but the outdoor was wide open with options for groups of 4. read more

I stopped in with my 2 teenage sons after a beautiful hike around the lake and it definitely hit the spot. There was a fairly long line but it was worth the wait as they had a large selection of flavors. I was sad that they didn't have any of their gelatos available but I still really enjoyed my affogato. read more

Great service, awesome kids play area, pup cup and yummy ice cream. They've nailed it. The friendly owner also gave our girls toppings on the house, they're incredibly sweet! read more

Ice cream and shakes and snow cone are awesome. The waffle chips were fresh and crunchy. The flavors are great! The service is top notch. The owner took his time to make very fresh espresso madness shakes. When I blurted out that he used sugar in the shakes he corrected me to make sure that I know his shakes are finely crafted without any added sugar. That's a man who stands by his ice cream craftsmanship and excellent service. I should have asked how old the business is. It's prolly been at Tahoe forever. Maybe even dating back to 2017? Thankful that I came back with my kids almost 10 years later. There's also a nice backyard patio area to sit in the shade and enjoy the ice cream and rest from a day of hiking or at the beach. There's even WiFi. This service may be spotty. Stop by and get some yummy cool sweets. Don't come here to look for a nice sweet old man who sells ice cream. But come and experience yummy sweet desserts. I had a good experience with the owner. He's solid and the real deal. Definitely recommend and will come back. Solid A read more

Such a great place! The ice cream is delicious and the variety of toppings is great. Staff was friendly. Outdoor seating area is cute.

Had such a great experience at Sweet Tahoe Time. The ice cream was top notch and they were so generous with the portions- each one us got heaping scoops. The staff was incredibly patient and kind to our three loud kiddos. It's not always easy going out with our little ones, but they made us feel very welcome. Definitely a spot we'll be coming back to! read more

Despite opening in 2016 Sweet Tahoe time had an old soul feel. The ice cream shop was located in a rustic cabin. Flavours were simple which I liked. I tried a chocolate/vanilla soft serve with sprinkles. Great taste. $6 for a scoop . California prices read more

Pretty tasty ice cream. While the hanging board menus are pretty cool, it can make ordering a little awkward and a little crowded.

Timely, professional and delicious. She was responsive to all of our needs and a delight to have along the family vacation.

This is the perfect place to cool down and enjoy a sweet treat! The staff let me try both "bunny tracks" and espresso chip and I went with a cone of the espresso chip. It was really tasty and creamy. The backyard is super cute with lots of fun animal decor and tables with umbrellas for shade. read more

Our friends have had this place before, and they highly recommended it during our group trip to Tahoe. They have a HUGE menu with many flavors to choose from - not to mention you are allowed to pick unlimited toppings!!!!! There is seating inside and outside, free wi-fi, and the restroom was decently clean. They have a small "playground" like area so keep the kids entertained for a good amount of time while the adults chat/enjoy desserts - we had a great time & definitely would come back next time! read more

Ice cream was really good. Nice and creamy. And they have the cutest little set up outside in the back with tables with umbrellas and chairs so you can eat your ice cream and enjoy the nice weather with a Big Connect 4 game. Super cute. Love the vibe. read more

Was just walking around and happened across this cute shop- ice cream was soooo good! I got blackberry I believe? 10/10 will return. But the chocolate sprinkles were reeeeally stale and crunchy, wouldn't get those again. Very good cones. read more

First, let me say that this place is super cool. Love all the seating outside and very dog friendly. They have pup cups that were automatically offered to our boys. They loved it! Now I also want to say that I am not a big butter pecan fan and my wife is and I tried her ice cream, hands down the best butter pecan ice cream I've ever had! All other butter pecans need to take notes. I had the salted caramel and it was divine! Would 100% come again! read more

Always a happy place to visit. It was such a great time to hang out outside, play games , eat ice cream, and drink coffee. It has a very happy vibe there Service is quick , with happy smiles. Ice cream is delicious Portions are large. We ordered a small $5 cup for each, and it was more than enough to enjoy each flavor chosen. Parking is limited, so it is better to park nearby or walk from Kings Beach. We highly recommend this place read more

Went around 8:30pm walked in with my mom to get ice cream and the old white dude working there was a complete asshole. The store has interesting flavors like vanilla Barbie, bunny, huckleberry, etc... so I wasn't sure and asked the guy to try a couple. I'm not one to sample 1,000 flavors usually just 2 or 3 max. When I asked for a sample of a different flavor called huckleberry he told me no. I thought he was joking at first so I laughed as he held a straight face and told me I'm not giving you more than one sample and told me very rudely to pick a flavor and that I'm holding up the line. Mind you my mom and I just walked up to the counter and I sampled one flavor looking to just sample one more as we have never been to this ice cream place before. I ended up not getting anything because I've never experienced such rudeness especially from a very friendly looking ice cream place seemingly tailored for children. I was very thrown off and confused by this attitude from him and I wouldn't recommend purchasing from here. There's a lot of other ice cream places down the road. Very unfortunate way to end our night (Edit: Just saw the other 1star reviews and please look at them for yourself!! It's the same guy!! He is a complete asshole!) read more

Great ice cream parlor! Either a good variety of flavors. They also have shaved ice. Good service and seating inside and out. Enjoyed both the flavors we got and would recommend this one over others in the area. read more

Terrible customer service employees seemed angry I was there. I work in an ice cream shop as a 19 year old and I would never treat a customer like that. Go somewhere else. read more

Your IC was delicious! 10 out of 5 rating! Thank you for yummy ice cream, soft serve.

The staff was nice and friendly. They have a nice outdoor seating area, good ice cream and fairly priced. read more

Sweet Tahoe Time - Coffee chip ice cream - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Kings Beach, California

This rudest experience I've ever had in my multiple trips to Tahoe over the years. We walked in, stood in line, immediately felt like we were being stared at. We ordered ice cream, mid-order the man who was helping me walked away to block off the toppings area because my daughter was looking at them. Didn't say anything before walking away, came back and looked at me like "go on."...and when we went on to the coffee order we were told "not with me" - so I asked with who and the man said "with one of these other people." He didn't ask anyone to help us, instead I had to chase down someone to help. Once ordered I asked to pay, went to the counter and said "do I pay here" and he said "ya but I have no idea what you ordered." Then he relied on me to tell him, again, what we ordered. We paid. I asked for a few extra spoons and they gave us 2 dirty sticky spoons. When I told them the spoons are dirty, the girl told me "they aren't dirty they change colors" and then rolled her eyes and brought the packet out for us to choose from. Every interaction was rude. I do not recommend this place. Also- I'm not sure what the coffee hype is about- it was below average. read more

There's 2 ice cream shops almost right next to each other in Kings Beach, this one and Log Cabin. I've been to Tahoe Time multiple times and am always so happy with my experience, so I'll keep coming back to this one! This shop is nice because they have both indoor and outdoor seating, dog friendly patio, bathroom for customers to use, and several unique flavors to choose from. I went with a small scoop of Black Raspberry Marble in a cone! Prices are affordable and serving size was perfect. The ice cream was creamy and delicious. I loved how flavorful the black raspberry part of the swirl was, it was a good amount to have mixed in with the vanilla. This was the perfect sweet treat after an afternoon at the lake! read more

Full honesty here based on my personal experience yesterday - take your money elsewhere!!! I came here with my family hoping to end the day on a good note, and this ice cream shop absolutely ruined our experience and overall trip. I'm not sure if it was racism or the one worker had a stick up his you know what... but he was completely out of pocket yesterday night. I believe he was the owner of the shop. We came in and asked for a few samples.... now I haven't even had a single sample yet and this worker looked me straight in the eyes saying "you can only have ONE sample." I thought he was joking, but I was completely wrong. Now if I wanted one single sample, at that point I might as well take a damn gamble on any flavor at this point and buy that flavor. I hated the first flavor I tried and asked for another sample (because i thought he was joking). Turns out he wasn't. As I asked for the second sample, he again sighs and says "I already told you you can only have one sample. There is a line (of 2 other people) behind you." I was completely speechless. What a rude human being he is. I ended up getting a flavor I didn't even like (and for $6 for a scoop FYI....). I just wish the owner had more of a heart. He should not be owning an ice cream shop with this attitude. The point of ice cream is supposed to bring joy and happiness together, but the owner did the opposite of that. He seems to have a lot of hatred in life and seems like a very miserable person that takes it out on the customers. If you want to have a miserable experience, come to this place. Awful experience, service, and bad vibes. Not to mention that I also saw a tiny mouse crawl out of their shop into the backyard area. Poorly ran and probably serves poison ice cream with how dirty this place is. Edit: found a photo of the rude, miserable, angry (because his life must suck) employee and posting here for awareness. Avoid this demon at all costs!!!! read more

Stopped at this place by chance as we wanted dessert. The ice cream was great and the coffee (almond mocha) was delicious. This is the first time in a very long while that I have savored and finished drinking every last drop of store bought hot coffee while on a road trip. The ambiance was cozy and welcoming and the staff was very friendly. The icing on the cake was when a black bear sauntered into the surrounding shopping area. We had a good time watching the antics of the baby bear as it sat on a tree. Bear or not, this place was a delightful stop on our drive around Lake Tahoe. read more

Gem mom and pop shop! Customer service is outstanding, the young man who helped us was patient, saw that we had a kids wagon and directed us to a bigger entrance. He went above and beyond. The ice cream is yummy! Good portions for the price you pay, can't beat that! There is seating indoor and outdoor. There's lots of games and kids toys to enjoy while eating ice cream and drinking coffee. Definitely a great spot to enjoy your day or evening and relax. Will definitely recommend to family and friends! read more

Such a great visit to this little ice cream shop. The smell of the wood burning stove and a sweet treat craving. But we loved that our dog was treated by the staff before we even made it through the front and the staff was so friendly. We'll come back!! read more

Nice short walk from Kings Beach. There's snow outside but they're still open. They have a fireplace running inside. Plenty of seating inside for small and big groups. Free wifi. Free water station too. Guy working is super friendly. He really fills the cup full of ice cream. He even gave me free toppings in a separate cup and filled the small plastic cup to the top with a small lid. Plus he gave us temperature color changing spoons which would be a hit if you have kids. They also have restrooms inside. read more

so it's really quite basic ice cream, you can buy it at a grocery store. the topics are fun, service is generally meh.

The house coffee was blah. The pastries were mediocre and the owner is a crazy old lady. We bought two coffees, three pastries, 2 ice cream cones and the rest of our kids had sno-cones from a different yummy establishment down the street. The crazy lady took a picture of my daughter enjoying her sno-cone!!!! She was upset that my daughter brought the sno-come to her establishment. WTF?! I asked her to delete the picture and she walked away. @hans You wish we would have came back to your establishment. That was the first time and the last time we will be visiting your establishment. read more

As a first-time visitor from Japan, I was absolutely impressed. Not only is the ice cream top quality--rich, creamy, and full of flavor--but the whole atmosphere of the shop is truly special. It's warm, welcoming, and perfectly organized, with staff who genuinely care about their guests. What makes it even better for families is the thoughtful setup inside: toys and little touches that keep kids happy and entertained. After a long day playing by the lake, this place feels like the perfect spot to relax, recharge, and treat yourself. Highly recommended--you'll definitely want to come back! of course we'll come back again. read more

It was super cute and dog friendly. The regular ice cream was really good. My husband got a shake which is a little water down. Other than that great atmosphere. read more

This is pretty much the most family friendly place I have seen. We were walking by and decided to come check it out. Our 2 year old immediately found the bike rack filled with all of the tricycles and scooters and was ready to have a blast. The back patio is huge and everything is so dog and child friendly. Staff was super friendly and came out to say hi to the pup and give him his pup cup. The ice cream and coffee were both really enjoyable. We had such a good time hanging out here we came back the next day. We will certainly be back. read more

Sweet Tahoe Time is a charming little shop located in Old North Lake Tahoe. Its exterior is often surrounded by ducks, while the interior features a cozy, log cabin ambiance. There is so much character inside from the decorations, fireplace, and even free diapers in the bathroom! They offer a variety of coffee drinks, hot cocoa, apple cider, yogurt, and ice cream--with unlimited toppings! We tried the ice cream, which is sourced from Gunther's, and found it to be premium and creamy. We sampled half of the flavors, each so delightful and high quality. They are particularly attentive to allergies, ensuring to change out tubs and spoons as needed. The service was exceptional. Finch, who served us, was incredibly hospitable, kind, and informative. We'll definitely return the next time we're in the area and highly recommend a visit! read more

We came to Kings Beach looking for ice cream. This is the first one we came upon. There are a few spots in front, and if you get one it's very convenient. We took the family inside. So many options. They have both yogurt and ice cream, both with free toppings, I think that is what the sign said. I got vanilla ice cream , and it was just as advertised. We took our ice cream to the back patio and enjoyed a few minutes of quiet. The back is all set with tables for multiple families. They also had trikes to rid around on the driveway. I highly recommend this place if you like options and want a kid friendly place. read more

Coffee was ok - ive enjoyed visiting this coffee stand every year for an iced latte. Guy making the coffee was not happy this year. When he called out "oat latte and vanilla latte" and handed us coffee in hot coffee cups - we asked for clarification on which is which since 1) they're not labeled and 2) we weren't staring at him when he called them out so we didn't see which was placed where on the counter (another gentlemen was also waiting for coffee). To my surprise he mocked my cousin - "yes that would be this latte...." In a condescending tone with an eye roll combo. He was also irritated when I asked for 2% (menu said nonfat available) and scoffed at me - whole, oat, soy only. Sorry for picking something on your menu! We won't be back, which is sad, we had a lot of good memories here. read more
