    Yummy
    Annie A.

    This is the delicious ice cream place. Service is very friendly and efficient. Karen was charming and patient with the younger kids. She explained them very softly with a smile. We loved her. This place has only outdoor seating, and OC evenings are super good. Parking is available, actually plenty of free parking. If you are in OC and close to Yorba Linda you must try this place where ice cream is fresly made.

    Gooey Butter Cake on top. 2 scoops is the perfect amount for a hungry adult! Absolutely delicious! (May 2026)

    My favorite ice cream, my husband's favorite ice cream... Should be everyone's favorite!! We love everything about Bruster's. Great options of flavors that always taste exactly what you would imagine, quality and fresh ingredients, fair prices, and an amazing team. Every single flavor has been delicious and every interaction with the staff has been good. They always remember to ask for your number for points and if you want to redeem your coupons. They are attentive and our orders have always been correct. We love the walk-up and sit outside business model (more tables would be great too). Love this place!

    Another Orange County location to check off my list! And oh, that was such a good hot fudge sundae. The vanilla ice cream is so much creamier than the competition, and the buttery, hot fudge brings me to tears. Toasted almonds, you have me crying, "Uncle!" But, Bruster's Corporate, I ask you to please have pity. Isn't a 15 miles drive a bit excessive to drive for one of the most delectable scoops around? The Inland Empire has almost always been treated as an afterthought. Yes, I see the new one in Chino. Not good enough. I'm begging you, please open a shop in Corona. Give us something to look forward to while we are sitting dead as a doornail on the congested 15 or 91 freeways. And, need I remind you, it gets darn hot out here! You wouldn't want me settling for less at one of those other, inferior chains, now would you?

    Yum!! Super fresh tasting and friendly experience. Great flavors and nice portion sizes.

    Vegan (nondairy) Options! Cool :)

    We found Bruster's Real Ice Cream by chance after a pet adoption event nearby -- and wow, what a sweetsurprise! From the moment we walked up, we were greeted with a smiley female worker. The staff was friendly and patient (even with a slightly tired and distracted post-event crowd), and there were so many flavor choices it was almost impossible to decide. Hence, she generously offer us a taste test of several flavors. We ended up grabbing Pistachio some of their signature flavors and every bite was creamy and satisfying -- you can really taste the difference with their fresh-made style. I also got Strawberry Matcha and asked for more matcha than strawberry and was accommodated. Bonus: they even had a FREE baby cone for toddlers! This place has that nostalgic, small-town ice cream stand charm, and now it's firmly on my radar. The summer day is long....so will be coming back since she also gave me a couple coupons!!

    Wow! Went here on a recommendation from my 10 year old nephew and he wasn't wrong! This place is absolutely delicious! They have tons of options from ice cream cups, cones, shakes, ices, and more. My kids went with the cotton candy explosion and the peanut butter chocolate with Butterfinger. Both were amazing! The cotton candy explosion isn't joking...it has nerds or pop rocks or something in it to make it explode. My son was enjoying it so much! My other son finished the entire cup of the peanut butter ice cream before we even got home that's how good it was. Will definitely be back!

    Checking  out the menu!

    Yo Yelp Crüe of Yorbies - The Vegan options at this spot made my sweet tooth sing a happy song. Delightful! The friendly staff gave me a couple taste samplers and I was sold - raspberry chocolate truffle & peanut butter n chocolate... both were from the non-cow-udder-tug variety and DeeLish! Super good! Also they were served in a freshly made waffle cone! Soooo Goood!!

    Salted Carmel and Toffee.

    Outdoor orders window only. Many flavors. Good choices and combinations. Large scoops. Ice Cream is on the soft side, which means it is not sitting around frozen, fresh like gelato. Sitting outside.

    Jenny L.

    Very nice staff and service was quick and efficient!! Long line when we arrived, but not much of a wait when getting our ice cream!! Walked over to go sit down and then they called our name almost immediately! Ice cream was creamy and delicious! Will definitely go back.

    If you're craving top-tier ice cream, Bruster's is the place to go. Known for its rich, house-made flavors and ultra-creamy texture. Whether you love a perfectly scooped cone, a stacked sundae every bite is pure indulgence. Plus, the friendly atmosphere and locally sourced ingredients make it a must-visit for dessert lovers! I love my Key Lime Pie. Great place to come and hangout in the patio area in a sunny afternoon.

    Brusters never disappoints! It's my family's favorite ice cream place to go to! The quality is amazing and the workers are always so kind!! I always get a kids scoop in a cone and it's always such a generous portion. There is a cute seating area with lights at night so you can sit with friends and family. Will forever be a go to!

We went a few months ago but I didn't go in (the parking lot is always pretty packed because it's shared with other busy businesses) and waited in the car while my family went in to order. Everyone raved, like for weeks, about the ice cream, and even though I didn't order anything, I still took their word for it because they are absolute ice cream snobs. Fast forward to yesterday when we were in the neighborhood again. I found 15-minute parking right outside the shop and from the moment we opened the door, everything was the best. The place: adorable and clean, with free water and a stack of napkins next to the water cups. A super clean restroom, too. The samples: they didn't skimp, and metal, full-size sample spoons? A nice eco-friendly touch. The service: just lovely. The flavors: I never thought I'd like pineapple in my ice cream, but the pineapple upside down cake took me back to the kitchen of my childhood (it was one of my mom's specialties,) and the pineapple didn't interfere, wasn't weird or chewy...it just blended so well with all the other flavors and textures. Another winner: the blueberry cheesecake. Oh my gosh. Next time, I'm bringing the insulated bags and stocking up on some pints. This is some of the best ice cream around, I promise you.

There were a lot of people already inside - a great sign! More people were filtering in while we were browsing their ice cream. I decided on their Blackberry Cobbler. It's a vanilla oat milk base with blackberry jam swirl and cobbler crumbles. It was light and refreshing. The jam added the perfect amount of sweetness. The crumbles added a nice crunchy contrast. This was definitely a summer flavor! They have parking near the front which is also shared with other businesses in the plaza. They have plenty of seating inside with tables for large and small groups. The staff is friendly and efficient. The ice cream was also reasonably priced. I recommend Blue Scoop Creamery. I love a dessert spot that sells seasonal flavors. It keeps it exciting on every visit. I'm glad my husband and I could add this to our list of dessert shops in Brea.
