And their scoops aren't tiny -- they are the full, overflowing scoop of ice cream. The staff is helpful and friendly. You can try some flavors before you decide what you want to get. Today, the inside was decorated for the World Cup 2026 fans, and there definitely were some global visitors, judging by the languages I overheard in the line while waiting for my turn.

Manhattan Beach Creamery is an independent, local Manhattan Beach landmark worth a stop for anyone…read morevisiting the area - and multiple visits if they are to your taste. While I've been here a few times this is my first formal review. I came with my family one Sunday evening on a hot July day, bypassing several chains on the way, including the new(er) Salt and Straw across the street. The inside is packed to the brim with sweets, small toys, and people, much like a candy shop of old. After reaching the front of the winding line our family shared a Banana Split ($13) - three scoops of ice cream, a split banana, hot fudge, a single dry topping (we chose coconut), whipped cream, and a trio of cherries - about as classic as it comes. The ice cream was good but not exceptional. The chocolate and strawberry were fairly generic, but I liked the third scoop of banana foster ice cream which had a nice banana kick. I doubt this ice cream is home made. The complements and construction to the sundae were great, however, and the flavors came together well. As I would hope for a location like this, the staff are local youths who served with patience and passion. In cases throughout the store are several of their other specialties - ice cream cookie sandwiches, dipped frozen bananas, and more - inviting repeat visits. Prices are elevated but not crazy for such a trendy area, although I would say with the middling quality of the ice cream a couple dollars less would be fine. Overall, Manhattan Beach Creamery is a local landmark worth at least a single visit for anyone in the area. If you can get past the generic, if a little boring, ice cream flavor and rampant commodification of the interior, you'll find a classic ice cream parlor with great service and history. Is it worth a repeat visit? I leave that to you. Food: 4/5 Service: 4.5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Value: 4/5

After seeing the bakery had such great reviews, I was really looking forward to our experience.

I completely understand that it was a very busy weekend, but even a simple "hello" or "welcome" can go a long way in making customers feel acknowledged. The chocolate cake was also disappointing. It looked beautiful, but unfortunately, the taste just wasn't there, and most of the cake was hardly touched. The one bright spot was the custom sugar cookies they were delicious! We only ordered a small amount, but after trying them, we quickly realized they would have been the better choice. Overall, I appreciated the presentation and the cookies were definitely a highlight, but unfortunately, the service and cake didn't meet my expectations.

The service, on the other hand, was too notch. When I walked into the shop, there were customers ahead of me being assisted, but out of no where, another employee popped out to assist me. She was very nice and provided helpful information on how to special order Bundt Cakes. The service was 5 stars.

Shortly after all the details were confirmed, she sent an invoice via PayPal (she asks what the preferred method of payment is). Pricing is extremely reasonable. The day of, they texted a photo and asked if I wanted to add a special note (which I did).

I recently had the pleasure of having CAKE create desserts for my Harry Potter-themed Halloween party, and I am absolutely thrilled with the results. Their attention to detail and dedication to the theme made the evening truly enchanting. The Butterbeer parfaits were the highlight of the night, with each layer perfectly capturing the essence of the wizarding world. They were a hit among all my guests and disappeared faster than a golden snitch. But it wasn't just the Butterbeer parfaits that were outstanding. CAKE's entire dessert spread was a magical masterpiece. The attention to detail in each dessert was remarkable. It's evident that CAKE's team is not only skilled in their craft but also passionate about what they do. I can't thank CAKE enough for making my Harry Potter-themed Halloween party a truly unforgettable experience. Their desserts were a hit and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend their services to anyone looking to add a touch of magic to their events. If you're planning a special event or simply want to indulge in some delicious and beautifully themed desserts, CAKE is the answer. They're the real wizards behind these fantastic creations. Thank you, CAKE, for making my party a magical success! read more
