    In hindsight I made a regrettable decision taking my family to Bruster's, but my daughter just finished competing in a tennis tourney next door at CSUF and I wanted to reward her. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine eating a PB Cup Overload With Reeses would cause me to lose a big chunk of my dental filling. At least we have dental insurance, but I learned from this $50 mistake to watch what I eat even if it's as soft as ice cream. I also have no plans to ever make a return visit to Bruster's, and my rating above a single star was purely because of Bruster's fresh homemade ice cream. Buyers beware of your ice cream ingredients!

    Busy location some nights, open pretty late which I like. Many flavors to choose from! Some outdoor seating available. No indoors, only outside!

    The ice cream here is so good! I love coming here with my family. They have so many unique flavors and will even let you test out new flavors to figure out what you like. All the employees here are also super nice! This location also offers a free baby cone for my baby every time which makes her very happy lol

    I love Bruster's! The service is quick, the employees are very friendly and the ice cream is sooo delish. Make sure you sign up for the rewards program to receive the awesome perks! They also have Pup cups for your furry babies.

    This spot has been a few different businesses but hopefully Bruster's is here to stay. Kinda waited a long time but the lady ordering at the counter had out of control kids and she was taking her sweet time ordering. But once they opened up another window it went pretty quick. If you havent been to a Brusters, just know that the scoops are pretty big. A ton of flavors, with sugar free, dairy free, and sherbets available. The graham central station is a goated flavor. If you dont know which flavor to get, try that one.

    Chill day with Mr. Bruster for us :)!

    Who screams for ice cream??? We do and this place gets the shout-out. If you like different flavors, tasty real ice cream and great price, DON'T miss this one! Plus the service with a smile rocks, even the owner was very pleasant. We had the Sea Salt Caramel, Ube and Pistachio that we would certainly go back for in a waffle cup for $9.50. Plenty of chairs to sit around for our group for a chill day!

    This location has plenty of parking on the front and some tables to sit down, the downside is that the sun hits you right there. We decided to walk around for shade and sit by the Office Depot. There was a short line that went through fast. The girl at the window was very friendly and welcoming. I was between 2 flavors and didn't know you could choose 2 different ones so she told us. The icecream came out quick and it was very tasty. It was hot outside so it started to melt quick. They give you a plastic cone protector on the bottom which is super nice to avoid leaks. The icecream is just as good as the Whittier location, but I will be back to this location just based on customer service.

    So good & fresh! They have so many flavors and the service is great! They are happy to give you as many samples as you'd like. The Dubai Chocolate, Southern Banana Pudding, Banana Chocolate Chip, & Mint Chocolate Chip are so amazing! I like how fast the orders come out and I appreciate the good customer service! The vibes are really cool here!

    The ice cream always tastes fresh. Everyone is trying to make up crazy new flavors and this place has some of their own, but they have a lot of the classic flavors that i remember growing up and they taste just like the ones I remember growing up. They also have a few asian inspired and seasonal flavors. So their selection hits a pretty broad range. There's also oatmilk ice cream, sorbets, and floats and sundaes. So many options, its crazy. The service is always fast and friendly. You stay outside the whole time. It has a window you can walk up to and there are a few tables and chairs setup in front. Its very informal and laid back. Since its outside, its always dog friendly. They will even give dogs a free ice cream.

    We got the matcha cloud flight (comes with 4) with ube, banana, strawberry and sticky rice. The ube…read moreand banana were super flavorful but the strawberry didn't have as strong of a flavor. The sticky rice one was just normal matcha with pieces of sticky rice in it which I don't think I'd get again. They had a ton of other flavors I want to come back to try! Also got the egg sandwich and ube mochi brownie, both of which were so good! Bread was buttery and the egg salad was so flavorful. Ube mochi was flavorful and I liked the texture. I expected a chocolate brownie with ube but it's more like a nian gao (Chinese rice cake) texture and no brownie/chocolate in it. Forgot to take a photo of it but it was really good!

    Hadn't been in a while, so decided to stop by after grabbing lunch nearby…read more I got a double matcha and from first glance, everything looked good. However, upon drinking it, it tasted like the foam that was on top of the drink had been sitting out for too long. It didn't quite tasted spoiled yet, but also didn't taste "right"/fresh; something was really off about it. A bit disappointing honestly, in comparison to my previous visits in past years. It feels like the quality has dropped and/or I just visited on an off day. It was also incredibly loud in here, the music was way too loud and it wasn't a full house. People couldn't hear their orders being called and it lead to a weird clump of people just lingering around wondering where their drinks were. And unless you're seated/have a table, you're kind of stuck awkwardly hovering around the cafe to wait for your order. There isn't really a space to wait at. There's a ton of tables packed inside a small space, which is nice, but also makes for a weird atmosphere for customers who are waiting for their drinks for take out/can't get a table. There is not much to comment on service as you order yourself on kiosks then just pick up your drink. Not sure if I'd return; maybe for another drink if I'm in the area but I think I personally have other spots I prefer a bit more for the taste/quality.

    My boyfriend and I decided to try something new and spend our day off slowing down together at a…read morecoffee shop. After scrolling through what felt like hundreds of options, we came across Dripp, and it immediately stood out to us. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm, inviting, and welcoming. I wish I had gotten the name of the person who helped us when we arrived. We mentioned it was our first visit, and they took the time to walk us through customer favorites and share their personal recommendations, which made the experience feel even more special. The Brulala latte was exceptional, and I absolutely loved the strawberry matcha as well. The pastries were incredible... we seriously considered ordering extras to take home. And whatever you do, don't skip the baklava! The overall vibe was relaxed and comfortable. I also appreciated seeing the baristas using their downtime to keep the shop clean and tidy, which says a lot about the pride they take in their work. Before leaving, I made sure to let the team know how much I enjoyed my visit. Everyone was so kind and genuinely happy to hear that my boyfriend and I had such a positive experience. This was my first visit, and even though I drove 40 minutes to get there, it was absolutely worth the trip. That's not something I say often, but this place has definitely earned a returning customer. Highly recommend!

    Dripp is located near downtown Fullerton, off of Harbor and Chapman. The space is welcoming with…read moreopen concept and plants. At a quick glance, it seems like a coffee shop where people go to work, do homework, and meet up. I appreciate the variety of unique lattes. My favorite drinks are hot Spanish latte and iced Okinawa latte. If I could change one thing about Dripp it would them making drinks by time stamp whether it's in person or online. The baristas prioritize in-person orders. On multiple occasions, I've ordered 10-15 minutes before arriving and end up getting my drinks after customers who I see ordering in person. Pro tip: if you're in a rush, don't do a mobile order.
