I love this location of Coldstone! The atmosphere is very nice, the store is very clean and tidy, and the staff is well trained and friendly. When I went, the employees were extremely nice and offered many samples, which I gladly tried. My favorite Coldstone creation is Oreo creme with oreos and pecans mixed in and I would likely go again! read more

My new favorite ice cream shop! The staff was really friendly and helpful in selecting my ice cream creation. There was so many yummy flavors and options to mix in, I just couldn't make up my mind, so I had to get help. The store was very clean & tidy, a great place to have a small party. The new owner is doing a good job on improving this Cold Stone Creamery. I will definitely be making referrals here and come back for more treats. read more

Took hubby here for his first time tonight for pre Valentine's Day treat. The girls working were so sweet and fun and helpful. The ice cream was super wonderfully amazing!!! read more

Being in the customer service field for over 30 years. The current staff at this location goes over and beyond customer service and satisfaction. Training a staff member requires more then just technical skills, it also requires people skills. I am very happy for the owner of this location and he has picked an oustanding team. I want to personally thank the owner for his expertise on hiring the right team. I did have an opportunity to speak to him on the phone regarding his staff and informed him that he has done a great job in training and hiring. The owner has informed me that he also has two other locations and is looking for great leadership and people skills. Please see for yourself as he is making a difference in Modesto/Salida. Thank you read more

I thought after I had a shake with rancid fudge a while back. With an offer of a replacement (which was never received) we would try again. Never again. One employee was helping us while the other just walked back and forth. Never offered help. After 10 minutes. We paid with a card. The poor girl couldn't get the card to go through. The other girl comes over and tries. She says. "This isn't working. You have another card or cash?" Never "I'm sorry we are having problems" nothing. Gave another card took them a couple of more times for it to go through. The other says to the girl helping us "you did it wrong" and walked away. I hadn't even tasted my shake yet! That second girl needs a new job she was as rude as she could be!! I get home and guess what?? Rancid hot fudge once again!! It's an ice cream shop for goodness sake! How hard can this be?? Spend over $25 bucks on ice cream at least they can make sure it is fresh!!! Never again. Do not go to this store and spend your hard earned money!! read more

I tried to first leave a review-comment on Coldstones corporate page to inform them about their Pelandale location before just bashing them on Yelp, but their website takes you to a blank page when you go to the report a problem link. So... Walked in and there were 2 employees and 2 guys in front of me, stood there waiting for a few minutes not acknowledged while the girls working proceeded to just chat with the guys. I had plenty of time to look at the ice cream assortment while waiting, when asked what I wanted I asked what the difference was between the chocolate yogurt and the chocolate ice-cream (calories, sugar) the girl said she didn't know, so I decided on chocolate yogurt, at which point she said we don't have that. But... you do have it, I'm looking right at it! "we don't have chocolate yogurt today" ... well it is labelled in your case as yogurt... she looks at the sign and just says "oops". So, I end up getting chocolate ice cream. I get it mixed with my toppings and go to pay, they have a new square device for payments, she tells me to sign and the screen will ask me to leave a tip if I'd like to. I would not like to, and don't leave a tip, and when she swings the screen around and looks at my transaction she goes "thaaaaaaaaaaanks so so much" and rolls her eyes at the other girl. Whatever. I proceed to go outside to enjoy my ice-cream with the pup and observe three women go inside, and come out about 5 minutes later with no purchase and complaining, interesting people watching going on here. THEN the two girls come outside to the front of the store and one of them proceeds to smoke while holding the door open to the facility with the two guys still inside and myself on the patio... now enjoying my ice cream in a smokey environment. BUT WAIT... they then began to chat with an employee from Panda next door and they are all talking about the Health Inspector and the Coldstone girl says, "thank god they had to leave and couldn't finish their report, we even kept the place clean for like a week after just in case they came back"... seriously? Shitty service is one thing, and well you're working at an ice-cream store so I can be ok with getting mediocre service, but smoking in-front of the establishment, while talking about how you managed to not get health code violations IN FRONT OF CUSTOMERS? People. Deserve. To. Know. - I would not come back here ever again, and I would be worried about the cleanliness and what goes on behind the scenes since the employees clearly don't care. The owner needs to step it up. read more

I'm sure it would have been good but their hours state til 10 pm today its 9:25pm I went there and the door was locked and the worker was just in there looking at me through the glass. Pregnant and annoyed customer now read more

This is my second time at this location, It was a great experience!!! I loved it, I will be going back!!! read more

Cold Stone Creamery - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Modesto, California

Great place with great flavors! A bit pricey for some ice cream but then again, it's Cold Stone. What do you expect. A favorite of mine is the Chocolate Devotion. They recently came out with some fall flavors such as Marshmallow and Pumpkin. My brother ordered the Pumpkin Pie creation and really enjoyed it. The staff is really friendly! read more

My ice cream was good as usual! But the guy behind the counter could have at least cracked a smile and not look like he hated his job.

So, here we go. I ordered a cake from this "wonderful" Cold Stone on Palendale yesterday around 1:30pm, and the person who helped me on the phone (a young, what sounded to be, man who was very intentional about making sure that he understood the information that was provided him). I ordered the Cake Batter Confetti ice cream cake (cake batter ice cream, red velvet cake, with oreos added) and wanted it to read, "Happy 30th Birthday Jessica." They notified me that the cake would be ready at 2:00pm the following day (today). I ventured into the store to pick up the cake around 3:15pm, and was met with a confused employee who informed me that a cake order had never been placed therefore the cake was not ready - again I went in an HOUR AND FIFTEEN minutes after the cake was supposed to be ready. I said that I would be back in an hour, and the employee let us know that their boss would make the fix. I then went back in at 4:15pm and was met with the same confused employee, who let us know that their boss was on their way back from the mall, and that when they returned they would make the cake and call me when finished. In order to rectify the situation, the confused employee said that they would call when the cake was ready. 6:30pm rolled around - TWO HOURS AND FIFTEEN MINUTES AFTER THEY CLAIMED THEY WOULD CALL SAYING THE CAKE WOULD BE READY - so I decided to take matters into my own hands and call again. I made the call, and finally the cake was ready. When I into the store, for the THIRD time, they brought the cake out from the back and the cake read in pretty illegible writing, "Happy 30th Birthday Jessia" - name spelled wrong. #perfect I politely inform them of the error and they ask if I would like them to fix the misspelling - uh, of course. They fix the cake and bring it back to show me - the "a" had been scraped off and a "ca" was put in its place so the cake looked even worse. At that point I was pretty irritated, so I voiced my concerns and said there is no way I was paying $30.95 for an extremely late, poorly constructed, misspelled cake. As I was speaking to the manager (Michelle) about the nightmarish experience she repeatedly interrupts me and says that the only deal she can give me is selling the cake for $15.99, which is not an unreasonable price, but given the headache I went through I felt this was a bit ridiculous. In all, the experience was absolutely horrible and we will not be patronizing that establishment again. #sorrymichelle read more

They did not have french vanilla ice cream. No peanuts, walnuts, almonds or pecans and my friends funnel cake was served late with frozen strawberries. 3 ice cream flavors not available. Under manned, badly managed and a lot left to be desired. This is easily the worst cold stone I have been to... And I have been to quote a few. read more

Tonight is my first time back at this location in a long time and I must say I'm very impressed! This place is under new owner ship and they are working very hard to gain back their reputation. David was amazing! He was nice, quick and a genuine guy! As long as he is here, I will be coming back! Thank you David! read more

Ice cream was great, the reason why I'm giving it 2 stars is because the guys behind the counter don't smile or greet customers & are not friendly ...very disappointing read more

So unfortunate this store is a prime location but so dirty and unfriendly i would rather drive across town. It's always understaffed. The lights above the work station have dead bugs in them that look like cockroaches. Would not recommend read more

I love this place!! I've been coming here for years with my family and it never fails to impress. The workers are always so nice and hard working, and they are always smiling and joking around with each other. The place has just gotten better with the new owner. I always look forward to coming back! read more

Great customer service, got an ice cream cake for my nieces birthday last minute and they were able to decorate it as well!

This locations customer service since the new owner has taken over is so much better! Very friendly staff and of course delicious ice cream!

The ice cream is always delicious but the portions and service not always great. My order never changes, coffee ice cream with caramel, chocolate chips and marshmallows. Yummm. read more

Normally have a good experience. However, was in the mood for a smoothie instead if ice cream. I ordered a blueberry/pineapple smoothie. The gal asked me 2 times to repeat my order. The music was so loud I couldn't hear her. She didn't know how to make it and had to ask the guy in kitchen. 3x. I finally after waiting at least 10 mins got my smoothie and the ice cream cup I ordered to bring home to My son. . BTW I was the only customer in store. Long story short! Worst smoothie I have ever paid for. No taste of pineapple and was too creamy. Uggg. Renaessg@yahoo.com read more

Six months ago I visited this business and my experience left little to be desired and made that known on Yelp. Two months after, I was surprised to get feed back to my review from a patron (Gina). Out of courtesy informing me that the business was under new management. One month after that, I received a message from the business owner himself, Sandeep. He introduced himself as the new owner and invited me back to check out their customer service. I can honestly say that his attention to his business is an A+. The young lady behind the counter was pleasant and courteous The ice cream was as it should be, delicious. Thank you for the professional customer service. My family will definitely visit again. read more

First Let me start with the music when I went in this morning the music was super loud and not appropriate!! When the lady decided to Finally come to the front to help she was All Sweating which was veryy disgusting!!!! while she made my Ice Cream her fingers were all in it!! And she smelled like cigarettes!! I believe She said her name was cindy are candy! read more

Not sure what the big fuss is all about with this place? Overpriced ice cream and limited flavors. Rite-Aid has better ice cream. I could do without the cheesy ice cream songs the employees like to belt out at intervals. read more

The service was very friendly and the store was very clean. All flavor of ice creams were available to choose from. I will visit this location again. read more

Well, let me say this. I think these girls do a damn good job for working 1 person. They do make you feel like your icecream is a good experienc. And I've been there when the owner is there the music is always loud its a freaking ice cream parlor, not a library. read more

Extremely bad management, sub par customer service, and lack of professionalism at this Coldstone. After cutting the custom birthday cake, we discovered they gave us red velvet instead of white cake with cookies and cream filling. Needless to say, the birthday girl was extremely disappointed and did not eat cake for her 13th birthday (because she doesn't even like red velvet)! The next day I went to Coldstone and they did not take ownership for their error, but instead made rude remarks to me and blamed me for not calling them at 9:00 pm when we were having the birthday celebration to tell them of the error. The owner was unwilling to refund me the money for the wrong cake! Warning: DO NOT GO TO THIS ESTABLISHMENT! If this is how this Coldstone makes custom cakes, I will take my business elsewhere! They don't even deserve one star. read more

I went to cold stone craving my favorite ice cream, we walked in and saw that they had run out of most of the toppings and most of the ice cream tubs were only half full. Not to mention that they were fairly busy. We ended up going across the street to yogurt mill, which was a much better choice to begin with. I don't think I'll be going back to cold stone again. read more

I have been to every Coldstone in Modesto and this is by far the best! The owners are so nice and the customer service here is great. I have never left this place disappointed. The only problem with this Coldstone is that I like it way too much and it makes me want to keep coming back ;) read more

I would not recommend this location to anyone. Honestly, they should probably be reported to the health department. My family came here after a trip to Costco since we were already in the area and wanted to treat our toddler to some ice cream. Our son was trying to decide which ice cream flavor he wanted, so my husband was looking at the toppings to see what he wanted for his. He came back over to me and told me there was a roach in one of the canisters. I thought he was joking, so I went to see for myself and there really was a live cockroach crawling around in the canister of shredded coconut. I told the girl behind the counter and she just said "oh," walked over, picked up the container, took it to the back room and came back out to the counter. Completely nonchalant, as if it was no surprise, like it happens all the time. She didn't even wash her hands afterwards. Disgusting. We walked out, our son's ice cream sample was thrown away immediately, and needless to say, we will not be returning. read more

I went here last week to purchase cupcakes from their freezer, because i heard they were good, but i could not get any help at the register, everyone was busy making ice cream. You really need someone at the register, i never was helped so after 20 min i walked out! read more
