Ice Cream Sandwich with Cookie Monster & Cookies and Cream Cookies, Mint Chip Ice Cream
Kristell N.

Visited the Baked Bear after the Warriors game to treat ourselves from a great win! You walk towards the Terry A Francois Blvd side of Chase Center from Thrive City, then take the stairs down and make a right where it is conveniently located. There was a little line when we went, but it went by quickly. The menu has a lot of options you can order your dessert as, and we opted for their Custom Cookie Sandwich. We can choose 2 cookies, so we chose Cookie Monster and Cookies & Creme. For ice cream, we chose Mint Chip. They offer to warm up the sandwich, but unfortunately for our experience, it wasn't warmed up enough. Regardless, we still enjoyed our ice cream sandwich outside the store, where there are a couple of tables to sit at. The views of the Bay are also nice to see on a sunny day while enjoying this sweet treat

Ice cream sandwich

A fun ice cream shop that is well-themed with their polar bear design and brand. I was a bit disappointed that I could not try all their flavors as they have a limit on samples. However, the staff were kind and their portions were satisfying. There are a lot of fun and unique cookie flavors to choose from. Fewer ice cream flavors to try compared to other ice cream shops but they all looked very appetizing, creative, and tasted great (from the ones I sampled). 5/5 - Cookies & Cream with Strawberry Matcha Cookie and Cookie Monster Cookie - A very generous scoop for our ice cream cookie sandwich! I was very impressed with how chewy and warm the cookies were, and how their flavor profiles were not too sweet such that you could appreciate the different components of the cookie. You will definitely be left filled with their portions.

Brownie with mud pie ice cream

Located right next to the Chase Center, I decided to try this place before a game. Glad I stopped by! Their brownies are on the thinner side, but more dense and chewy which is exactly how I like them. If you prefer a more cake like brownie, maybe try a cookie here instead. The mud pie ice cream is delicious. Nice coffee flavor and paired perfectly with the brownie. The employee was nice and explained a little about my options. She let me know I could do more of a half ice cream sandwich option and that's what I went with. It's a small set up, but there are a handful of tables and chairs outside.

I will order that gooey butter cake cookie again!

Located on the first floor of the Chase Center complex fronting the water, this spot is in a bit of a tricky location which I only found because of a signboard that drew me here. The spot is clean and looks new. Staff is friendly and eager. On the night of the Lady Gaga concert, they switched on the music to get in the spirit along with the crowd. They've got cookies, brownies, and ice cream which can be ordered individually or a sandwich. Fresh off of a recent stop in at Diddy Riese in Westwood, I went for the $10.25 cookie sandwich here. Gasp, this one was a lot better! The cookies are thin and soft. The ice cream is good quality and the scoop is large. And as an added bonus, they'll offer to warm your cookies (no innuendo intended haha) in the waffle iron. I was glad that I did. I got the cookies & cream cookie as well as the gooey butter cake cookie (YUM highly recommend) with a scoop of vanilla with a blackberry or huckleberry swirl (can't recall oops.) It was the perfect treat to share. I hope this place does well. It's got everything going for it!

Yum! I hadn't eaten a ice cream cookie sandwich in forever and this one hit the spot after playing volleyball nearby. We got the cookie monster cookied with more cookie and cream ice cream inside, and the ice cream portion was hefty. It wa, as expected, pretty sweet but also very creamy and decadent. Good find in Mission Bay!

Cleanest glass I've ever seen!

The concept seemed familiar then I recalled I'd taken Finn and his friend to The Baked Bear's first location in North Beach 6 years ago. The Baked Bear in Mission Bay is at the base of the Warriors Stadium. No game day, no line. The concept is an ice cream cookie sandwich with the option of their warming the cookie sandwich in a waffle iron of sorts. You can buy cookie crumbles and chocolate chips, etc to roll onto the edges. It was good, messy (grab a spoon and napkins) and if you're a princess like me, give up trying to eat it as a sandwich after the second bite. For $10+ it's a bit spendy but tasty for an occasional treat- try it! Spotless, mini takeaway spot with outdoor seating.

I went to a The Baked Bear in San Diego once and have thought about it since. I was thrilled to hear they opened up a location in Chase Center's Thrive City and checked it out today. Friendly staff and some tables outside to sit at. Baked bear specializes in cookie ice cream sandwiches. You pick different cookies for the top and bottom of your ice cream sandwich, or the same cookie. They also have sundaes and combos with brownies. I opted for one gooey butter cake cookie and a chocolate chip cookie with cookie dough ice cream in the middle. They also sell the cookies individually as well. I really like it here because they offer to heat up your cookies and it's amazing because they are soft and delicious. The gooey butter cake cookie is so unique and it's a decadent dessert. So good and highly recommend.

The Baked Bear offers a sweet variety of cookies and ice cream flavors for their ice cream sandwiches. My experience with ice cream sandwiches has not been favorable in the past, but this ice cream shop has changed my mind! In their pop-up event located around the Chase Center, they offered a few cookie flavors, including snickerdoodle & cookie monster (which are the two i got) & chocolate chip & funfetti, and a few ice cream flavors including cookies & cream (the one i got) & bear batter & vanilla. The cookies were crispy and thin, and the cookies & cream ice cream was rich! The ice cream sandwich was not too heavy and satisfied my sweet tooth.

My sisters and i were craving ice cream and cookies, so this was the perfect spot! We came here around 7:30pm and the cookies all still tasted very fresh. We were super satisfied with the service, and the ice scream cookies were so freaking good. Having had a baked bear since we we're in Tahoe. So happy for this to open in our neighborhood.

I seen a sign leaving the warriors game that they were opened til 10:30. I needed a sweet treat and they did not disappoint. Its located right outside of the chase center. There was a short line. The customer service was amazing they told me what the top choices were. I ordered the gooey butter cake with vanilla icecream as a sandwhich. They warmed it up and was absolutely perfect. The cookie was so fresh and soft. I will definitely be back after a game. They have outdoor seating as well.

Customer service was excellent. The location being a part of Chase Center is perfect. Great vibes always. My gf and I shared a ice cream cookie sandwich. With chocolate chip and white macadamia nut at each end, with toasted s'mores in the center with nuts. 5 star greatness in every bite. Dangerously good.

A SOLID place for dessert! From ice cream to cookies, I feel like both are decently good and you can put them together to get a one of a kind ice cream sandwich. I have been to "Cream", which is essentially the same concept but the Baked Bear is 100% better. The ice cream is super good with classic flavors (cookie dough, mint chip, cookies and cream) but also original flavors (mud pie, bear batter, blackberry crumble) and the cookies are the same. I came around 7pm and they still had fresh cookies coming out, which I was happily surprised by. The sandwiches are big, for me definitely sharing size and I love that you can mix and match which cookies you want. Staff is very nice and even offers to package your order to go.

For this location, the shop is located inside the Kinokuniya Mall in Japantown in San Francisco. [Parking]: There are two parking garages - The Main Garage (1610 Geary Boulevard) and The Fillmore Annex Garage (1650 Fillmore Street). Parking rate = $5 per hour from 12 PM to 6 PM and $3 per hour outside of those hours. I got lucky and was able to find metered parking spots near the intersection of Buchanan St and Sutter St (free on Sunday). [Atmosphere]: Matcha Cafe Maiko is located on the first level of Kinokuniya Mall. This is mostly a takeout only spot with no indoor tables and limited chairs available. [Menu]: Most visitors come here for the matcha soft-serve ice cream. The shop also offers the Golden Sho-Gun 24K gold soft-serve ice cream. Other items include sundaes, parfaits, lattes, cream foam lattes, and teas. *** Soft Serve Ice Cream (Matcha, Cone - $6.95): Amazing ice cream - creamy and dense with a strong matcha flavor. *** This is a fantastic matcha ice cream shop - two big thumbs up. P.S. - If you are already at the shop, this is also a good opportunity to check out other shops in Kinokuniya Mall and the adjacent Japan Center Malls.

Great for meeting friends, dates, picking up birthday or party cakes or ice cream, just don't forget to grab a paper number as soon as you arrive! Their selection is insane - so many flavors, lots of tropical, tons of mainstays (their oreo is fantastic), no cookie dough surprisingly, but the flavors and toppings are just so, so good...it's like time traveling back a few decades when it was simpler and ice cream was enough to make anyone happy, at least for awhile). Lots of non-dairy options too for those who need them. The people working here are always friendly and they always have good suggestions or a sample right away for the kids to keep the line moving but also happy. The key word, I've realized, is "happy." Mitchell's specializes in making everyone happier than when they arrived - every time.

Thankfully, they had plenty of cashiers working, so the line moved much faster than I expected and I was out the door within ten minutes. I ended up getting a tub of durian and mint oreo. I know they have an actual name for that mint oreo, but naturally, that information has completely escaped me. Either way, both flavors were really good. Despite how busy it looked when I arrived, the service was quick and efficient. It was definitely worth the stop, especially on a hot October day, and I can see why this place stays so popular. I'd gladly come back and try a few more flavors next time.

THE BEST CREPES!!!!!!! No joke, best crepes ever. From east…read morecoast to west, this is the absolute, hands down, best crepe spot. Nestled in the heart of Japan town's shopping center, right next to the bookstore- Sophie's crepes is. Very small bistro seating is available, but this place gets pretty busy. They have an extensive menu of both simple and layered flavors. The crepes here are thin and crispy, and come in a very cute crepe holder when served. I always get the strawberries and banana with Nutella, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and whipped cream. The crepe won't last long, you'll eat it right up. My partner opts for a strawberry and whipped cream option, with raspberry jam- simple in comparison to my order. Sophie's is always our starting point in Japan town, and once you've placed your order, you cannot revise it. Make sure you hold onto your number, you'll need to provide it when your number is called. Enjoy, a must try in SF; even if you just go to Japan town for this one thing, trust me, it's worth it.

The crepe itself was light and had a good flavor. I do wish the fruit pieces and ice cream were more evenly distributed but it was a nice sweet treat. I was hoping they would include more berries too. Also, the crepe can be messy to eat, so definitely grab some napkins. Otherwise, I recommend visiting Sophie's Crepes for a solid dessert. I'd like to return and try one of their savory crepes!
