    Me and my daughter love it here . . Second time been to this ice cream shop I brought my daughter, she loved the corn in the cup but the first time I bought corn in the cup for her dad he tried it he said it was BOMB . We will keep coming here. So far we have only tried the corn but soon we will try everything on the menu !

    The staff here seem very friendly and kind. They have MANY snack options to choose from, and they even have a couple of food options. The fruits and veggies were fresh. Let me just tell you, they are not stingy when it comes to their serving. The snack bar looks, smells, and feels clean. I have been to only one other snack bar in Bakersfield, CA a few times, but I wasn't a fan. I LOVE The King Ice Cream Shop! I have been to a few other snack bars in a couple different counties, and I have to say that this one is my favorite! My favorites from here are the Mangonada and the Fresada.

    Oh man... watch out Paleteria's out there! The King Ice Cream is here! The King Ice Cream has tons of options here, from lunch, snack and desserts, they are really competing w the other guys. The frozen desserts are similar; however, they have more seating and it's just slightly more roomy in there. The King Ice Cream is located right next door to GameStop on Ming Ave. Parking shouldn't be a problem as it's a huge parking area; however, there are other businesses nearby so some days are better than others. I havent been here enough to tell you what days are better than others, but I do know that the wait time is less than 5 min here no matter how long the line is and I havent been here enough to see a huge line. The King Ice Cream doesnt only serve ice creams/paletas. I havent had an opportunity to try out their non-dessert menu but the elotes here are not your ordinary elote. They have cheetos and other chip options also dusted on the elote. They have great deals on lunch specials. I wish they were a little closer to my workplace because I would definitely come by during my lunch hour to try them out.

    I love this spot for snacks!!! Everything is so yummy and fresh. The prices are affordable. The people are friendly and helpful. It's a nice spot to get a quick Mexican snack and hang out or take it to go. There's a few other Mexican snack spots like this one but this is my favorite because they don't overcharge for every little thing.

    Love this place! We will definitely always stop here on our way to/from LA- my boyfriend also got a torta and he loved it

    Long live the King!! Strange how I have never seen this place before especially considering that wifey and I have a favorite restaurant nearby. They are in the same plaza as Ross Dress For Less on Ming Ave. My mom was the one who saw this shop, and she asked us to all go here after eating dinner. So glad that she made the suggestion. The King Ice Cream shop sells more than just ice cream. I saw some of those choices that others purchased, but we were only interested in their ice cream. I believe they make their own ice cream, but don't quote me on that. I was torn between trying one of their many paletas or a scoop of one of their ice cream flavors. After sampling several of their flavors, I chose a scoop of Strawberry Cheesecake. It was yummylicious. Everyone in the family was pleased with their choices. Happy that we found the King!! From now on, it will be our dessert place whenever we dine at this strip mall. Tasty ice cream plus a clean shop plus good service plus fair prices equals repeat business from us. We'll be back!!

    Magonada and limon ice cream was so good service was Amazing!! New fav spot

    My favorite spot in Bakersfield for a diablito or ice-cream!! And the service is amazing

    This place is godly. Their crepes are to die for i swear to you I've had crepes and did not like them before this place. Their strawberries are sometimes a little sour but most of the time they're great. Their tortas are also really good. They add a lot of Mayo sometimes but it's still good. This place is now my go to place for dates with my hubby.

    Mangonada
    Fab G.

    My favorite ice cream shop in Bakersfield. They have the best mangonadas and torta. Anything on their menu is delicious no doubt ! Worth the drive. Amazing products and customer service. One thing to be improved is to have another cashier that just helps others with small orders ice ice cream cups or water as the others get ready the lengthy order that take a longer process.

    Coconut & eggnog $3.50

    We got a 2 scoop Ice cream here for $3.50. It's delicious, we got eggnog & coconut flavors. Will try to come back! They make the ice cream in house.

The first time I visited was over 25yrs ago and it literally looks the same. One tip I have is that if you get the chili dog, that hotdog is big enough for 2 people, unless you have a huge appetite then I would suggest to have at it because the chili is pretty good. I remember bringing my boys when they were little. I love that this place is still here after all these years. This is definitely one of Bakersfield's gems! The menu is simple, but there's nothing simple about the ice cream menu. Make sure to get some of that caramel sauce, it's soooo good and nothing about it has changed over the years. The decoration inside is still cute, even though not much has changed, I don't think they need to change it since it's still a cute ice cream shop. Service depends on how busy it is. On our recent visit when we first arrived the gal was on it, but it started getting super busy quickly and I watched this girl wait on 5 tables at the same time, so she wasn't as quick as she was when we first arrived. Staff is really friendly and If you haven't had Rosemary's then you need to bring the kiddos and the family to check it out. There's parking in the back in case there's no parking up front.

They are notorious for having the newest trendy sweet treats. Their Instagram is very active and frequently posting new reasons to keep coming back.

It was a very rich and semi-sweet hot chocolate with a hint of cinnamon, just like my momma makes it. My sister had the Dubai-style hot chocolate, which had a pistachio topping; she had no complaints. We also decided to try the Dubai style chocolate covered strawberries; the strawberries were a bit tart, but the toppings were all delicious. Just a heads up, they are an outdoor-only seating establishment, so come prepared. They do, however, have good lighting and patio heaters to help. It tends to stay pretty busy, especially on weekend nights, so wait times can be a little long, but they are worth the wait.
