I'm so sad that this store didn't make it. I was looking forward to treating myself, family & friends to more of their delicious treats. The ice cream was also delicious! The staff was always pleasant. Why is the rent so high for these businesses in Pasadena? Not much seems to make it on the East side of town read more

So excited they opened locally! Cinnabon and creamy Carvel ice cream? Smells so good inside. They also open pretty late. They have 6 seasonal ice cream flavors. Also they have a bonini which is a Cinnabon ice cream sandwich. What a fun combo for a little sweet treat! read more

It's great to have a different font of Cinnabon. Very clean and neat inside. Smells great of the classic cinnabon smell. They serve lots of soft serves and icecream. Their soft serve is very creamy and quite good. The sandwich icecream: just okay. It gets quite heavy and the cut of cinnabon is like the middle layers of a classic one so I feel like it get quite mushy in texture. Next time I would just get the classic cinnabon and icecream/soft serve on the side. Service was nice and quick. Very attentive and u can also try different flavors of icecream. Free parking in the back and street front, not too busy. read more

Nice spot for a treat & good amount of seating to enjoy your snack! I like the idea of the cinnabon icecream (bonni) but we wish the cinnabon was cooked a little longer so it had a little crunch! The price is decent $8 We want to come back to the try the icecream flavors read more

I love me a good Cinnabon, so when my sister found Cinnabon Swirl in Pasadena, I was sold! Here they combine the classic Cinnabon w/ ice cream!!! It's like a Cinnabon ice cream sandwich AND it was delicious! Alsoooo it was cheaper than a classic Cinnabon at my local Cinnabon in Lakewood, crazy. The Cinnabon ice cream is called a Bonini it was $15 and some change for 2. They were delicious! The outside was warm and sticky and the ice cream was perfectly cold inside. We definitely could have shared 1 because it was that filling. All in all definitely recommended! also the establishment was really nice, really clean. The cashier was super friendly! And the restroom was clean! read more

A Cinnabon Swirl dessert place!? I had to go IMMEDIATELY after I first saw videos about the place trending online! Staff kindly welcomed me in when I entered on a weekday night around 6pm. There were a few people in front of me but it went by quick. The store is a decent size with a fun transparent glass at the front, so you can watch staff make your cinnabon dessert! Staff ensured I knew what items they had. I ordered the bonini, and it was HUGE (enough for my partner and I) and delicious! It was basically a cinnabon roll stuffed with ice cream and is pressed - it definitely took us to flavortown lol. We also wanted the Caramel Pecanbon but that was unfortunately out. But service was kind enough to let us have an icing cup as an apology! Will definitely come here again to try the other desserts! read more

Came here on a Sunday afternoon and to my surprise - it was very roomy, plenty of tables. Very clean. Parking lot is behind the establishment. Serena was so friendly and explained everything to me gave me samples of the soft serve. I really liked the hot chocolate and peppermint which was the limited seasonal flavors!!!! MUST TRY! I'm already bias because I like Cinnabon....but the Cinnabon sundae is a really good. Hot Cinnabon centers with cold creamy ice cream - get vanilla and peppermint!! It's definitely good for sharing if you're not a huge sweet tooth. read more

Best of both worlds with Cinnabon and Carvel partnership, hence, we have Cinnabon Swirl! Cinnabon cinnamon rolls and Carvel ice cream sandwiches are two classics worth craving. I have yet to try the ice cream sandwich, but it is on my list to do so. You betcha it is! This location is right on Colorado Blvd near Pasadena City College in Pasadena. It may be right across the street from the college... if not, it's pretty close. You can't miss it. Average parking lot size shared with other businesses is behind the shop. It allows for 30 to 45 minutes parking otherwise your car may be towed away. Please read the signs. Great inside space. No outside seating. Restrooms are available. Entrance is available from the back or the front of this shop. Upon entry from the back, I was greeted right away by a few lady staff. Hospitality and service was excellent. Thank you Jocelyn! Atmosphere was welcoming and colorful. They sell ice cream sandwiches, carvel soft serve (flavors change regularly), bonini (soft serve in the middle of cinnamon roll), and standalone cinnamon rolls. You may sample any of their soft serve flavors. They even have pre-packaged frozen items, too. I got one bonini for me and two regular cinnamon rolls for my daughters. Cinnamon roll from the bonini was slightly tough unfortunately. I would have preferred the cinnamon roll to not be squished with soft serve. It didn't have enough soft serve for the cinnamon roll size IMHO. I will get both cinnamon roll and soft serve separately next time. Cinnamon roll on its own was great. I later got a soft serve with mint and oreo swirl to-go. It was really good. Can't wait to try their other flavors. Highly recommend! Great place to bring family and friends for a sweet treat or enjoy a solo date with self + cinnamon roll + soft serve. read more

A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN And it also smelled amazing inside. Whether it be Cinnabon or carvel ice cream or them together, so happy that this dessert shop is in the neighborhood. Love a sweet, soft, warm cinnamon-y during the cold season and to top it off with ice cream - can't be any better. The soft serve was on the thicker end but the flavors are good. Also, the service was great and there's plenty of seats to enjoy your sweet immediately. Can't wait to be back. Also goodwill is conveniently across the street if you love thrifting. read more

Loved this place so much!! Cinnabon swirl is the best thing to open--especially right across from PCC. The ambiance is so cute and there are plenty of seats and tables. There's a parking behind the store. The workers are super friendly, especially Serena. Definitely made sure we were accommodated for. Definitely 10/10 place all around. I ordered the smores kids cup ice cream, Cinnabon crunch kids cup, ice cream and center of the roll. All super yummy. Highly recommend coming here read more

As an East Coast transplant from New York to LA I was so happy when they opened a Carvel and Cinnabon duel location! It's right across the street from Pasadena city College. There's a decent sized parking lot in the back with an easy back lot entrance. The store is very clean. I came in and ordered a small cup of salted caramel soft serve! Brina helped us out that day and was so sweet and helpful. read more

Cinnabon Swirl - Soft serve - Bakeries Near Me - Pasadena, California

After hearing there was a place relatively near me where I could (finally) try Carvel ice cream and that I could enjoy it inside of a Cinnabon, I knew I had to make the trek out there. So, I loaded up 2 of my boys and we drove across the street from PCC. From the second you walk in to the very clean, warm, inviting interior, you are in for a great experience. The staff here is very friendly and we were greeted the second we came in and they were smiling and helpful the entire time. Even as my 2 boys struggled to figure out what they wanted, the employee was very patient. I will say that the Bonini is perfectly priced. You're paying just a bit more than you would for a standard Cinnabon but with the addition of ice cream. I will say it is a very messy sandwich. You need to eat it with your hands, but the melted cinnamon sugar is going to get all over your hands & it's not the easiest to just wipe off. But honestly, I didn't mind. The standard soft serve, however, I feel is overpriced. You can get comparable soft serve elsewhere for much less. And the mark up for toppings is unnecessarily high. So, honestly, if you're coming for the Bonini, you're coming for the right thing. If you just want ice cream, save a few bucks and go elsewhere. With all that said, I will definitely be back. And I hope that they open up more in the area so I don't have to drive all the way out to Pasadena for this very unique and delicious treat. read more

As of writing this review they've only been open for one month and it's such a lovely space. Got to meet the owner Del and he's AMAZING! So friendly, so wildly attentive, I kinda felt like Norm on Cheers as he made it a point to get to know my friend and I. We tried the Bonini (a cinnamon roll ice cream sandwich) made with Carvel ice cream. It's such a novel concept and definitely something to split lol. But to me nothing beats the crown jewel - a classic cinnamon roll. Cinnabon has brand recognition for a reason. So yummy and warm and nap inducing. Located right across the street from PCC there's limited street parking in the surrounding areas, but there's a parking lot in the back I believe. They have a lot of space to eat your treats and possibly even do work in. The soft pop music in the background makes it a cute sugar rush vibe. This is the only Cinnabon Carvel in all of California so def make it a point to try it ou read more

Came in on Saturday after opening day. I walked in from rear and although there was a girl greeting with samples I was not greeted nor offered a sample. This is new and mostly came to try the carvel. It didn't disappoint its creamy and flavorful pumpkin cheesecake swirl. The Cinnabon was disappointing it was hard and honestly the mall ones are better. Maybe had been sitting for too long. A lot of staff that day with deer in the headlights look but they were friendly. Nice concept and convenient without dealing with mall traffic and location but buns need to be fresher. Parking in rear be ware to enter on second entrance which if you're turning left the sign is too small. Street parking with meters. read more

If you know me, you know I have a deep love for cinnamon rolls (or, for all things cinnamon sugared really). So, when my sister told me there was a combination Cinnabon / Carvel ice cream down the street from where we were having dinner, I knew that would be my sweet treat for the night. There were a few options: some mostly Cinnabon, some mostly ice cream, and some that were a combination of the two. I decided to go with the mash up and got the Bonini: a Cinnabon roll sliced in half, stuffed with ice cream and hot pressed like a panini to get that cinnamon sugar glaze all nice and warm and gooey. Overall, it was really good but could have used more ice cream, honestly! The bun to ice cream ratio was a little off. But, overall it was really good and if I had one of these close to me, it would be very dangerous. read more

Brand spanking new dessert shop right across grand ol' PCC. This used to be a 7-11, and I'm sorely missing that as their cheap coffee is fire. So you've already tried a Cinnabon I'm sure. They're at every single mall in America. The large, gooey cinnamon rolls that have the caloric count of an x-large pizza. Love it for sure, in moderation, of course. This store has your Cinnabons as well as ice cream cakes, pre-made ice cream cookie sandwiches, and soft serve in a few different flavors. There are some toppings to choose from, but they're not as varied as some of the other ice cream/frozen yogurt shops. It was hot out, so I decided to get me a bowl of the soft serve. Got the vanilla and pumpkin flavor and sprinkled some walnuts on it. The young woman at the counter gave me a generous portion of soft serve that filled the entire cup, so there wasn't much room to add any other toppings. Came out to just under $9. Not cheap at all. The ice cream is very smooth; has the consistency of lightly frozen whipped cream, as another Yelper stated. It is indeed ice cream, just a bit different than what you're used to. This is a nice change of pace in this area from all the Boba-themed dessert spots, so they'll have some staying power I'm sure. Come check it out! read more

Cinnabon Swirl - Bakeries Near Me - Pasadena, California

I have had Cinnabon at the mall plenty of times so I was not new to their famous cinnamon rolls. What makes this spot stand out is the addition of ice cream. It is a perfect combo. I am a big fan of hot desserts with a scoop of ice cream on top such as pie or cobbler so this was right up my alley. The smell hits you the moment you pull into the parking lot. Warm sweet and absolutely irresistible. The staff here were friendly and attentive. Hopefully that level of service lasts beyond the new store honeymoon. A gentleman who I believe was the GM was walking the floor explaining the products and checking in with guests. The initial welcome and follow up were great but after a while it did feel like a bit too much. At the end of the day it is cinnamon rolls and ice cream so we did not need quite as much conversation. We tried the Boninis and loved them so much that we signed up for the rewards program. Free Cinnabon on the next visit is a nice touch. On the way out we grabbed the premade pumpkin ice cream sandwiches which were delicious and clearly well crafted. The only critique is that the cookies were a little too hard. Overall this was a great visit. Strong first impression tasty desserts and a fun new spot to have in the area. read more

I forgot how good their soft serve is. Love the vanilla. Super quick service. No more going to the mall to get cinnamon rolls.

I had the Cinnabon swirl which was a Cinnabon roll and Cravel ice cream. Cinnabon is always fantastic. The Cravel ice cream is good too but I'm not sure it is a perfect pairing. Amazing service from the staff. Very positive atmosphere from the person who helped me and I'd come back just for that. read more

First off, it smells great when you walk in. I came around 7pm so it wasn't very busy. There were about 1-2 customers waiting for their order so I was helped right away. I asked the employee if she could assist me with getting the complimentary Cinnabon swirl sundae for the yelp elite event and she needed to confirm since the dates changed. She came back and let me know what the complimentary item was and asked which soft serve option I wanted. They had vanilla, chocolate, peppermint and hot chocolate. I opted for the vanilla at her recommendation and it was a great choice since I didn't want the ice cream to overpower the cinnamon roll. I also bought a cinnamon roll cold brew to pair with the dessert. (I know, sugar overload) Before she made the cold brew, she handed me the sundae. The bottom of the cup was pretty hot and I realized she heated up the cinnamon roll before topping it with the soft serve. It was amazing and took a lot of resistance to not eat it before taking it home to share. Highly recommend it. The cold brew came out very sweet as suspected but was still pretty good and complimented the sundae. read more

Cinnabon and Carvel ice cream - two great names in delicious sweets. Personally, I didn't like the ice cream on top of the cinnamon bun because it made the ice cream less cold and the bun less hot. I prefer cinnamon buns to be warm/hot and together it changed the texture and taste for me. But I believe you can order things separately, as well as ice coffee, etc. This place was rocking when we went - lots of people hanging out, but there was plenty of seating. The guy at the counter was friendly and offered samples of the soft serve so we could decide which we wanted. Overall a good experience. read more

Was able to check this place out recently as I didn't know there would be a separate Cinnabon location besides the mall and have ice cream also! First off, there's plenty of parking in the back if you can't find street parking. As I walked in, the place was nicely decorated with a modern look that was very spacious. Does make you feel like you're in a ice cream shop with the decorations and display. There's also plenty of seats and tables available. I was able to try the Cinnabon Sundae which had a warm cinnabon centers at the bottom of the cup and I chose Hot Chocolate ice cream on top. Added some sprinkles onto it and what a combination it was. Cold ice cream with warm cinnabon rolls made this a delicious treat to have. Service was great. She was very helpful and very nice. Definitely will come back again to try their other flavors. read more

Place is is a great location with tons of parking. Two entrances. Front and back. The inside is super clean and was decorated for the holiday. I got a cinnamon swirling sundae.

Can't wait to go back and try the other stuff! read more

I've never seen a Cinnabon outside of a mall, so I had to make sure to try this place! There was lots of seating inside and no line in the middle of a weeknight. Staff is very kind and patient since the menu can be a little overwhelming. I honestly wanted to try everything! I'm sure because it's a stand alone store, the Cinnabons tasted so much better than from a Cinnabon from the mall. I got the pecan while my husband got the classic. It was much more moist and so delicious. Ice cream was also good! I wish they carried a kid sized cone but my son was pretty happy with his large cone. Side note, clean bathrooms are available as well! read more

I have been waiting for this place to open. It finally opened a few weeks ago. I wanted something sweet so I decided to try it out. It's just like Cinnabon but with a fast-food-like style. The service was good, and the place was cute and trendy. It's nice to get a cinnamon roll outside of going to the mall. I got a regular cinnamon roll which was hot and fresh. It was very tasty and soft. They have the traditional menu of cinnamon rolls as well as new items on the menu like cookies and various yogurts to choose from. A nice amount of items to choose from for your sweet tooth craving. Easy Parking located on the street or in the rear of the building. This location is a great asset for Pasadena. It's Adjacent to Pasadena City College which is a big plus. I am sure students are going to love coming here. read more

Cinnabon Swirl - Pasadena is located right across from Pasadena City college at the corner of Bonnie Avenue and Colorado Boulevard. It is a great destination for both students and neighborhood clients. It has a positive energy that you feel immediately upon entering. I felt like I was going to a party. Everyone in the store says hello and gives you the opportunity to look at the selections available on their menu. The staff member I spoke with explained the options and was eager to offer free samples. I decided for this visit on the classic full size Cinnabon. It was carefully boxed and placed in a bag. I tasted the soft serve ice cream and decided it would be my next purchase on a future visit. I walked around to look at the different displays and refrigerated items available for purchase. The store is bright and cheerful. After a short walk home I enjoyed my Cinnabon for my evening dessert. I think this would be a great breakfast with a good cup of coffee. Great cinnamon flavor as you work your way to the middle cinnamon pastry. Fresh and tasty! Caravel Ice Cream has always been a favorite, so I look forward to my next visit to give it a try. There is parking on the side of the building or in the back. This is a great neighborhood for walking with a lot of boutique restaurants and stores. A great place to window shop and get some exercise. I look forward to enjoying my next visit as much as I did my first visit! read more

Please come visit Cinnabon Swirl!! I don't know why someone hasn't thought of this concept sooner. Cinnabon + Ice Cream is the absolute dream. I was in the Pasadena area and came across their dessert shop and everything from the ambiance to service to food was amazing and a positive experience. I ordered their signature Bonini (Vanilla Ice Cream between a Cinnabon) & a Cinnabon Swirl Sundae. Highly recommend. The Cinnabon was fresh & the ice cream is such a good complement to it. The service was amazing- the team was so helpful & I appreciate the recommendations they offered. I will definitely be back! 10/10 please come visit & try it out!! read more

If you try anything from this place you must absolutely have to try the soft serve. It's like anything I have ever had. I can't even really describe the consistency of it, it's quite unique. It's very very light and almost like you are putting nothing in your mouth. The flavor is big though. I got the pumpkin flavor and usually when I eat stuff like that I feel bloated and full. I ate the whole thing and felt like I didn't eat anything at all. You can even add toppings onto the soft serve as well. I also love that they have the center of the cinnamon rolls that they sell separately. Everyone knows the center is the best. All the staff were very nice. The place is spacious and has plenty of seating. The story of how carvel ice cream came about is written on one of the walls. I will be going back to this place for a sweet treat. read more

Cinnabon Swirl, a new concept from Cinnabon and Carvel, is now open across from PCC. It features exclusive items like the Bonini, a cinnamon roll sandwich with soft serve, and the Cinnabon Swirl Sundae, a cinnamon roll topped with soft serve. The first location opened this May in Peoria, Arizona. The Pasadena location is the fourth and the first in California. The menu includes soft serve ice cream (cup or cone, sundae), ice cream sandwiches, shakes, and cinnamon rolls (including minibons and the center of the roll), ice cream cakes, ice cream pints, and cinnampacks. There are four soft serve ice cream flavors a day. Available soft serve flavors: * pumpkin * cheesecake * vanilla * chocolate+ You can also add toppings to the soft serve (sauces, whipped cream, sprinkles, crunchies, nuts, brownies, cookie dough, etc.) Small pumpkin and vanilla soft serve cup with chocolate crunchies ($5.99 + $0.79): There was a generous amount of rich ice cream. The texture was airy, soft, and creamy. It melted quickly. Both flavors were mild (aka bland). I didn't like the soft serve. Service was friendly. The place was new and cheerful. It certainly smelled wonderful, if you like the scent of cinnamon rolls. There is a parking lot behind the store. The grand opening will take place on September 5. read more

Decided to stop by the new Cinnabon Swirl location in Pasadena. It is located right across the street from Pasadena city College. Going in I didn't know what to expect but I ended up getting a Cinnamon roll not really eating too much sweets nowadays but just had to get one. Customer Service is really great. The young lady offered a sample of their ice cream which I did try their cheesecake, ice cream and then also pumpkin ice cream, the cheesecake ice cream tasted just like whipped cream. They have plenty of chairs for people to sit at if you're going to go hang out and chitchat with one of your friends if you like sweet stuff this is your place. Definitely recommend. They have parking in the back. The street parking in the front is very limited. If you're stopping by just to grab something pretty quickly definitely park in the front but if not, they do have parking in the back. read more

The service was very friendly and inviting. I tried out the cinnamon roll with the ice cream in the middle and to be honest it's OK nothing spectacular. I still believe their cinnamon rolls are a 10 out of 10 and the ice cream itself is a 10 out of 10, but the cinnamon roll with the ice cream in it kind of misses the mark for me. But I'll definitely be back because I really do enjoy the cinnamon rolls. read more

Absolutely loved this spot! The soft serve ice cream was creamy and smooth, and the Cinnabon Swirl was fluffy, warm, and perfectly balanced with the caramel drizzle on top. Everything tasted fresh and not overly sweet. The staff were super friendly and welcoming, and the whole place was bright, clean, and cozy -- perfect for a quick dessert stop after walking around the falls. Definitely recommend this place if you're looking for a sweet treat in Niagara Falls! 非常喜歡這間甜品店！雪糕質地滑順濃郁，Cinnabon 卷又鬆軟又香，配上焦糖醬真係完美組合，甜而不膩。員工態度非常好，笑容滿面，好有禮貌，整間店又乾淨又舒服。喺瀑布行完路過想食返啲甜品，呢度真係一個好選擇，五星推薦！ read more

what a let down :( I saw someone else post that their bonini was stale, and I have to agree. This also had no icing on it. The other rolls looked so fresh and gooey, this was extremely dry and completely fell apart. I couldn't eat it like a sandwich at all. There was so little ice cream, I got about 4 good bites and then threw the rest away. The employee working was super friendly but I was really hoping for something better. read more
