    Friendly service. Located in quaint neighborhood in Pacific Grove. Mostly ice cream flavors and no sorbet. Would come back !

    Espresso crunch and Cookie Monster.

    Every cute little town needs an ice cream spot. Colette's fits the bill for Lovers Point. This is definitely the spot to go after date night or to take the kids. All night espresso crunch over a scoop of Cookie Monster on a waffle cone. Space is tight so flavor selection is a bit limited but it hit the spot.

    After lunch, I was craving something sweet, and Colette's was just across the street so I thought I'd check it out. It is a super cute spot. It was a quiet afternoon so I was served very quickly. I got the lemon custard. Normally I will take a few bites of ice cream and be done, but this was so good that I ate the whole cup. It was so delicious. Hope I can get back someday to try more!

    While in Carmel, I asked my waiter at my lunch spot for recommendations as I made my way back to Monterey. He mentioned this ice cream shop so you know I had to try this. After a short drive, I relied on my car GPS which led me to a deli about a block away. I wandered a bit before finding this small shop that faced the movie house across the street. After looking at the flavor selection, I decided to get a single in a cup with two flavors, cherries + chocolate and peaches + cream (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=KYj0wUms72B-BX3YWBZvhA); being overcast, it was on the cool side to have ice cream but it hit the spot after my post lunch hike back up the hill from the beach in Carmel. I liked both flavors as my palate leans towards fruity ones. I liked the cherry one slightly more as the chocolate gave it a bit of a bittersweet note as a change of pace. I was the only customer when I walked in but a few parents with children flowed in as I waited for my ice cream. Thank you, Jacey, for answering my questions and giving me a sweet note ending to the afternoon. There are hand packed containers in the refrigerators (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=240&select=XyAgBfjDLg_bDxzyyrRnkQ) to the side as well as souvenirs (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=240&select=BEeVu-YshGDwbdS8rr4AKw).

    Perfect addition to the sweet town of Pacific Grove. The staff is friendly, cute set up and great ice cream. There is a smaller variety of flavors, but 100% everyone in my group found something they loved. Sit at the side bar or there are tables and chairs outside or if you're up for the challenge the red tile seating area is so fun. Oh and make sure to get a stamp card!!

    Wow! On our way down to Carmel, I wanted to stop at this ice cream shop because of its reviews. So glad we did! I tried 2 flavors and told the employee "I'm sorry, but I might try 2 more." After I requested the biscoff ice cream, I laughed and said "never mind. I'm sold." They have the best biscoff ice cream that's to die for. Inside is an interesting seating arrangement so don't expect a place with tables and chairs. Staff was so nice, parking is easy (street parking). I wish they had other locations! Would love to come back and try other flavors.

    Great ice cream and great service! First time here and the service was pleasing. Good variety of ice cream to pick from and you can ask for samples if you're unsure what to get. Decided to get the Cookie Monster flavor and it did not disappoint, would recommend! Good amount of seating and a lot of public parking

    Ice cream + a family friendly stop always makes for a good time but even better when the service is so hospitable! The stunning floor to ceiling red tile seating was so beautiful. The look and feel of the ice cream spot is pure downtown magic.

    On Sunday around lunchtime, I was really impressed with the chocolate peanut butter (5/5 stars) but regret ordering the chocolate cherry ice cream (1/5 stars). It's my favorite flavor combo, but every bite had ice crystals, so either something was up with their production of this batch or their freezer/storage set up. I'm not in the area often so I'm disappointed because I'm hesitant to recommend their ice cream, which is a bummer because the other scoop was really phenomenal, but I don't know if a food safety issue or genuine mistake ruined the chocolate cherry ice cream for me.

    My name is Colette...need I say more?!? I walked out of a brewery across the street from here and stopped dead in my tracks. Immediately ran across the street and found the cutest red and white ice cream shop! The ice cream was SO good! SO creamy and the staff was so nice! I did buy a t shirt and a sticker! This will definitely be a regular spot during every visit!

    With no schedule on a Friday morning, I decided to get something for breakfast. A short walk from…read moremy hotel on the less busy side of Cannery Row, I walked in a little after 9 am. A few people were waiting to order and more customers walked in as I studied the menu. I jumped into the line and after a short wait, placed my order. Rather than carrying my breakfast and beverage back to my hotel, I decided to enjoy the sights and sounds from their outdoor dining area. The expediter called my name and I shortly brought my purchases to a table facing the bay. I started with a hot chocolate, medium (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=SGdMOIoQV6_t-uothYYbfw, perfect for this foggy Friday morning. It was perfectly hot and not overly sweet. I enjoyed this as it's been a while, drinking this. I also got a sausage English muffin, cheese, egg, jalapeno aioli, onion (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=WgF_AQ-xeUkLIxZF6dRZlg); I was surprised by the size as it towers over the golden arch version of this. The jalapeno aioli was subtle and the onion added a nice crunch and flavor to the sandwich. The filling (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=NZaPMZCiCXJhrKg3VKuZgw) is generous. I also brought an item that I'd never seen to take back for a future snack or breakfast, the peach fritter (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=0&select=t303wZ8QRnuNuXk6rP16bw). With the staggering number of things that I bought from a downtown bakery, I didn't get to it till several days later. The dining room was about half full and the outdoor dining area was about the same on this cool, slightly foggy morning. Here's a shot of my view as I had breakfast (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=0&select=GTQiFiqy226JtcYrGIauwg). Big thanks to the kind and efficient cashier and expetiter. I would return here for breakfast if wanting something light and quick. It's directly next to the Monterey Plaza Hotel.

I should have asked if their syrups are made in house and/or the brands. I did not get a chance to try any food items but they sounded delicious! Service was very kind, casual, and patient! Their website is awesome by the way! Very coastal zen.

Just the right amount of char and flavor! Butter Brickle Malt Milkshake: Pretty solid! Thick creamy milkshake. Tasted like what Butterbeer would taste like. Roadsides hot dog: This hotdog was pretty sweet with the bbq sauce and sauteed onions. The dog is wrapped in bacon and topped with mac n cheese. It's a little hard to eat such a stacked hotdog but that's really not a complaint. Why complain when you get more of a tasty meal? I do wish I could order a pickle or something sour that I could use to contrast the hot dog in between bites. Overall, the food menu looks really interesting, the food is delicious and I'd love to continue to explore the menu the next time I visit. The service is friendly and the food comes out relatively fast! Ambiance wise, it's a pretty laid back beach skater vibe with lots of decorations to look at! I got the pleasure to come here on a day where there was a live band and it really added to the atmosphere. Highly recommend stopping by here when you get a chance. :)
