    Americone Dream Birthday cake.
    Erik H.

    Line moved really smmoth for Frre Cone Day . Can't wait for 2027 every April on a Tuesday!

    Came by for free cone day on April 14 and joined a long line to get a free scoop. Luckily the line moved fast and I only waited about 10 min. This was my first time at an actual shop and I tried the chocolate fudge brownie which was delicious in a sugar cone and the perfect afternoon treat. Love how rich and velvety the chocolate ice cream is and the generous brownie chunks were great! Such a fun treat and really appreciate how kind and patient the staff was on a busy day.

    I had such a fun time at free cone day! I bumped into my friend and waited in line together. Since it was a windy and cold day, only had to wait 20 mins. They only allowed 1 scoop so I chose my favorite favor Cherry Garcia. I wish they allowed 2 scoops cause I noticed some people lined up multiple times.

    Yes there are newer and shinier ice cream joints in town but for its OG woke charm, Ben & Jerry's on Haight is still charming. Decades on, the classic Cherry Garcia is still satisfying today. Otherwise, lots of other options to choose from. It's just fun to grab a cone and leisurely walk along Haight. It's showing its age but still worth exploring the many scoop options available or take a frozen ice cream cake for celebratory events... or solo nights in. Who's judging?

    Came here earlier in the year, when it was super hot. I ordered the blue ice cream I forgot the name Jessica order some chocolate peanut butter. The scoop here can be pricey but the quality of the ice cream is far to none. It's located in the Haight Ashbury District which you'll see from a mile away because of the blue coloring of the store.

    Decided to come after eating and shopping nearby. We wanted something sweet and quick and this was on the way back to our car. Hubby and I shared a two scoops of salted caramel blondies ice cream in a cup. The shop is small and has a restroom for customers. The gal behind counter was friendly and provided quick service to every one that entered with a smile. The ice cream was perfect as expected and satisfied our craving.

    At Ben & Jerry's right now--super creamy, rich flavors and loaded with toppings. Service is friendly, just a bit slow with the line. Still worth it!

    Where do the Dead go to drink and eat in San Francisco? It depends who you ask. I know Jerry Garcia use eat and drink around San Francisco including Haight street .There is a newer company among the existing Grateful Dead members and now as the Dead & Company . The mayor of all guitarist and the greatest guitar player of my generation and Dead & Company vocalist John Mayer drank Patron tequila since I had shots with him on the Mayercraft (best of my knowledge he has been sober for years). I used by Spidey sense since I have attended a Dead & Company show in the front row in the past at the Bill Graham auditorium in San Francisco to get my first clue. After watching the Flower child's running wild this weekend my instincts lead me to Haight and Ashbury for some Summer of Love flavors of Ben & Jerry's ice cream almost anyone can enjoy. I came here for the scoop of Cherry Garcia . This is a classic dessert which never dies and it's a sweet and savory treat which is a Dead classic. Some Ben & Jerry flavors are to die for and some flavors do die and get buried at the Flavor Graveyard in state of Vermont like one of my favorites the Tennessee Mud flavor which had Coffee Ice Cream with Amaretto, Jack Daniels Tennessee Whiskey and Roasted Slivered Almonds ( I went nuts like almonds over this flavor). This week I had the mango ice cream and was so tasty and very creamy and not too sweet. Marshmallow Sky is a blue ice cream with swirls of marshmallow. It was very delicious and refreshing in any weather. I did a pit stop on Haight and "Ashbury" in San Francisco for some ice cream flavor with the flavor of "Cherry "at a place named after two founders name Ben the other named is "Jerry" Some flavors go to die to the graveyard at the "Cemetery " like Peanut Butter & Jelly , The Urban Jumble, Rainforest Crunch, "Wild Maine Blueberry "located in the state of Vermont in the town of "Waterbury"

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.

I've been here about 10x since my last review because the tourists we take to Japantown always want something from here. The soft serve is so good now. The most recent flavor I got was yuzu something and it was smooth, creamy, and had a nice yuzu flavor. The fish cone is pretty good, I enjoy both types the regular fish shaped cone and the mochi version. The mochi version is indeed mochi. I wish they would use an unscented floor cleaner because the smell of the cleaner is really strong and wafts out into the area where people order at the kiosk and wait to pick up their ice cream. It's an unpleasant fragrance to smell while you're waiting or trying to enjoy your food. They've finally added more tables outside the shop where people can hang out and eat their ice cream. They could add even more tables and chairs, and there'd still be plenty of walking space.

    Disappointing, Overhyped, and Not What We Expected…read more My family and I are very experienced diners, and we rely heavily on Yelp when we're looking for honest opinions from other customers. We were recently in San Francisco and were excited to find a great ice cream spot. With so many options, we turned to Yelp and that's where we found Bi-Rite Creamery, boasting nearly 11,000 reviews and a 4.5 star rating. Those numbers set some pretty high expectations. I read through quite a few reviews beforehand, looking for recommendations on standout flavors and specialties. After all that praise, I was genuinely confused when we arrived. First, finding parking was a nightmare and the surrounding area felt pretty rundown. The shop itself was underwhelming, the employees weren't particularly welcoming and the ice cream looked noticeably soft as though the freezer temperature wasn't quite where it should have been. The flavor selection was surprisingly limited and I wasn't impressed by the use of reusable tasting spoons. I ordered the sundae, expecting something memorable after reading so many glowing reviews. Instead, it was completely ordinary and the bananas weren't fresh. There was literally NOTHING about it that justified the level of hype I had read beforehand. And that's really my bigger issue: the experience simply did not match the reviews. It was confusing. This wasn't terrible ice cream, but it was decidedly average. The selection was limited, the ice cream wasn't as cold or impressive as expected, location sucked, the atmosphere was nothing special and the customer service was marginal at best. Afterward, I started looking more closely at the business and its enormous volume of reviews, and I honestly found myself wondering how our experience could be so dramatically different from what I had read beforehand. Nearly 11,000 reviews?? That is an extraordinary number for an ice cream shop, especially when so many reviews describe the experience as exceptional and rave about specific flavors which were subpar. Obviously, I can't speak to the authenticity of other customers experiences and I'm not going to accuse anyone of manipulating or leaving fake reviews without evidence. But I can speak to ours: it was nowhere near the experience YELP led us to expect. This is exactly why I wish Yelp did a better job helping consumers distinguish genuine, useful customer feedback from whatever is driving these enormous review counts and inflated expectations. My family spent our time, money, and effort getting there based largely on those reviews and we left wondering what we had missed... Nearly 11,000 reviews and a 4.5-star rating? Based on our experience, that's a level of hype this ice cream simply didn't live up to and something's up. It sucks when dishonest people take advantage of useful resources.

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.

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.
