Van Leeuwen is one of my favorite places to stop when I'm craving a really good ice cream, and the…read morePeanut Butter Brownie Honeycomb is hands down my favorite. Every time I come here the workers are nice and patient when taking my order because sometimes I try new flavors and take a little longer to decide. But my favorite is definitely the Honeycomb! I love the combination of all its flavors. The creamy ice cream paired with the rich peanut butter, delicious brownie pieces, and sweet honeycomb creates the perfect bite. The peanut butter adds such a rich, smooth flavor, while the brownie gives you those decadent chocolatey bites, and the honeycomb adds a fun sweetness and texture. It's seriously so good that I usually take some to go. The Culver City location is small, but I actually like that it feels more like a quick, casual stop. They have a little seating area outside where you can sit down and enjoy your ice cream. I usually sit there with my doggie Lola. Afterward, you can walk around and do some shopping at the really cool stores surrounding the shop, which makes it a fun little outing rather than just grabbing ice cream and leaving. Parking is also pretty convenient. There's a parking structure right across the street, and it's usually around $2 to park, which is a nice bonus for the area

Been curious about this place for a while. Glad I finally tried it! The guy who served me and my…read moremom was so chill. He suggested Honeycomb to me, and I absolutely loved it. My mother got Pistachio, and she enjoyed her ice-cream as well (if you prefer something not-so sweet). It was so good, we went to our local Sprouts to buy a pint! So rich and creamy. You wouldn't have to wait long for it to thraw from the freezer. As other yelpers mentioned, there's little to no street parking. So it's highly suggested you park in the structure across the street, or use valet that will lead you immediately to the place on your right-hand side.

What's really not to love about a giant ice cream shop with some of the best selections of fabulous tasting creamy goodness. I was really surprised and pleased euth the size of this location. I've door dashed from Handels before but never been inside one. It was clean it was huge and it was easy to navigate. The menu was so expansive with so many selections. I opted for the blue monster. Which was a blue vanilla cookies and cream ice cream. DELICIOUS. I unfortunately did not get a picture of it and I regret that. I ordered a two scoop which was two and a half scoops so I think next time I just gone scoop because their scoops were huge. This location only offers two samples per person. Not sure if that is normal. Felt weird to be limited but I can get why. Love this place. Fortunately what I got was one of my samples.

This is not to say I dislike the Salt & Straw's and Wanderlust's of the world, but they don't hold a candle to the well-rounded experience ice cream-goers are provided with at Ginger's Divine Ice Creams in Culver City. First, the ice cream. Every time I visit with my brother and order my usual (shout-out to the Butterscotch Oreos and Fudge!), I am ALWAYS provided the most generous of scoops, often more than enough to have leftovers for days following. The rich, smooth, and creamy texture paired with the familiar yet refined flavor profiles never fails to leave me satisfied and smiling :) However, my affinity for the sweet treats served at this establishment means NOTHING without the team-members that make Ginger's what it is. The team here is consistently warm and welcoming, never failing to ensure every visit is equal parts helpful and hospitable. Like I wrote above, I often come here with my brother, but it's the team and their positive vibes that make it feel like home. In closing, this parlor is WITHOUT A SHADOW OF A DOUBT the best in the West (Los Angeles area), and I won't hesitate to continue supporting this quality establishment

The ice cream is obviously good, but honestly the vibes and the people are what make Ginger's such a gem. And while everyone is just now discovering Salt & Straw (which btw, I've been on since the Abbot Kinney opening days lol)...Ginger's is one of those spots that just feels way more like a neighborhood favorite. I've gone through phases with the flavors too. Billionaire Brownie is a great place to start, but once you become a regular like me, you start getting creative My personal move right now is vanilla with almonds + caramel on top, with a warmed-up brownie on the side. And if I'm taking a break from the brownie...SHEESH. The chocolate chip cookie is so good!! But the biggest thing for me is the staff. Every time I walk through the doors, it genuinely feels like I'm seeing friends. Everybody says what's up, remembers you, jokes around with you..it just feels good being there. Shoutout to Malaika for making my order today!! Got to hear about what she's studying in college too, and I'm genuinely bummed she's leaving in a month And Jeffrey deserves a shoutout too because that dude is hilarious. He's always cracking me up whenever I roll through. The whole team is so dope that I've literally dropped off complimentary Equinox passes for them before and will absolutely do it again. If I REALLY had to nitpick, my only request would be some music around the outdoor seating area. That's literally it. Anyway, I've been here way too many times to not finally leave a review Ginger's is a real gem.

First, thankful for easy parking, I love it that there's a park lot instead of street parking. They had shakes, cookies, cakes, matcha and even little dog treats for our Kodi. I've had their cookies before from the World Market but nothing as fresh as going to the bakery itself. We ended up choosing three cookies, the compost cookie, a corn cookie and one with chocolate chips and marshmallows. I also ordered a little truffle but I can't remember what flavor it was. We didn't eat the cookies until we got back home and they were fine, they were all pre packaged so they weren't the freshest. I liked the corn cookie but the consistence of the cookie was like kinetic sand? I wish it were a little bit more memorable flavor wise but I was really thankful for such kind service.
