You can't go wrong with delicious cookies and ice cream. We went back twice for dessert during our SF trip. The chocolate chip cookies are amazing and have chocolate chunks. An ice cream sandwich is about $8-9. My only nit is that some of the ice cream flavors can be on the "too sweet" side and can be slightly artificial tasting. Also the workers here are very "let's get this shift over with", minimum customer service vibe lol. There's seating both inside and outside. read more

I came here because it opened late!! The ice cream and cookies and brownies were all quite average, nothing to write home about... I would say if there's no other options or nothing is open and you want something sweet/cold, then go here!! Otherwise I recommend other places. Service was great though (as in me and the worker just had good chemistry... he couldn't really name all the topping ingredients though!) Anyway, the seating inside was alright (not too much available) but again, main reason to go is if nothing else is open! read more

Since we don't have an all vegan ice cream place in SF, you have to take what you can get in terms of vegan 'options'. I appreciate that Cream has not only vegan ice cream options, but also cookie options, so that you can get the full cookie sandwich experience. In terms of quality, I didn't find the ice cream or cookie anything to write home about. Basic flavors, and old school ingredients (soy ice cream.) The service was very good--the employee behind the counter was attentive and quick. But the ambience is a little worn. Meaning, take your ice cream with you and hopefully it's not too cold outside. read more

CREAM - Vegan cookie sandwich - Desserts Near Me - San Francisco, California

I haven't been to a cream in years and it was nice to see this location in the mission. My husband and I both got a cookie sundae which did not disappoint! One tip, sometimes the cookies can be a little firm, so I always ask them to warm it up, and that makes all the difference! read more

This is a great option for a quick ice cream stop in the Mission Dolores area, especially if you're looking for something open a little later! I got the coffee, which had a really nice deep flavor but was a little on the icey side. The mint chocolate chip on the other hand tasted really fresh and not artificial at all (a personal pet peeve of mine for mint flavored food) read more

CREAM - 1 Scoop - Desserts Near Me - San Francisco, California

Just concluded my visit. My taste buds feel a little unwell upon leaving. Mainly because the vegan ice cream tastes like it went bad. Probably doesn't get enough love in the back. Everyone else who got sorbet or regular ice cream felt there's was just okay, ranging from fairly normal to bad! TLDR- enjoy the cookies. Tacos looked great read more

They are so nice here! Fresh gluten-free cookies, vegan ice cream options, plus lots of other options, flavors of ice cream and different offerings! read more

Second visit here. Service non existent, 2 guys sitting on buckets in the back. 48 degrees outside, all the windows open, freezing inside @ 8:30 PM. The worst ice cream spoons I have ever used. Place was really dirty. read more

They serve double rainbow ice cream which is one of my favorite places in the city. They have a lot of flavors to choose from and it's dangerous their hours are so late because we will be back often :) read more

solid icecream spot, icecream wise. service- meh - the person was annoyed i asked for samples to try... i got a pint scooped and the guy behind the counter was a bit stingy lol... it was like $11 before tax which i think is pretty pricey... so you would think to just treat the customer with kindness. anyways, the ambiance was cute - blue walls simple and clean. my friends who live here said the shop changed alot from when it first opened to now. mmm. curious if it'll still exist when i come back to visit again! read more

Wow, I definitely had the worst ice cream in my life here. I went to get ice cream in January, and the ice cream was clearly melted and re-frozen with giant ice crystals and tasted like water. The guy seemed to know and gave us giant portions maybe as an attempt to make it worth it or to use it up. But definitely wasn't worth eating. I think this place is a perfect example of a chain that gets too big stops caring about quality. I've gone to cream before in the past and enjoyed my experience and maybe this is a one off, but if you know you have a problem don't hide it. read more

This is the first ice cream place I've visited in San Francisco and it was absolutely amazing! As a tourist PEOPLE HAVE TO COME HERE FOR ICE CREAM!! read more

It was so good. I loved every bit and bite of it. The person here told me that I can get two different kinds of cookies and I did. Both of them were great and I have chip and cream in the middle with mms. It was so good. read more

I'm anticipating this location closing very soon. Came here on a Saturday night and it was dead. It's kind of sad to see how Cream ended up. I remember them being so good & the hottest thing in town at one point- at least the location in Berkeley. The workers here are unenthusiastic, uncharismatic, and just hate working there. Dude had AirPods in while taking our order and kept having us repeat ourselves. They also didn't have the Taco anymore (although they had signs everywhere and it was posted on their menu board), and wouldn't honor their yelp check in offer for a free cookie after spending $5. As for the taste, the cookies were dry, unevenly shaped, and they gave you such a tiny scoop for such a high price point. The only positive thing about this experience and this location in particular was that the dulce de leche ice cream is tasty. Probably cause it gets shipped to them and they don't have to utilize any sort of skill except scooping the ice cream. Parking is also extremely horrific. Overall terrible experience and would not recommend to anyone! read more

Came here with a big group after dinner and while the inside isn't too spacious, outdoors is not bad at all. Creamy ice cream with some sweet flavors but definitely some original or classic flavors as well. However, I think most of the options won't be anything special so hopefully you're willing to experiment otherwise another spot might be better. Blueberry Cheesecake - my go to is strawberry cheesecake actually and I've had blueberry cheesecake gelato - this comes pretty close. Rich and creamy, you could try to convince me it's gelato. read more

CREAM - Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream and White Chocolate Cookie - Desserts Near Me - San Francisco, California

Ice cream at CREAM is pretty solid and will hit the spot where you're craving ice cream, cookies, or a brownie. They specialize in adding the ice cream between those cookies or on top of brownies. The cookies and brownies are probably better than the ice creams which isn't a bad thing, but it's definitely unexpected when they're an ice cream place by name. Thankfully everyone behind the counter is fun and easy to talk to. We went around dinner time and didn't encounter a line at all. The inside has mostly standing room to eat along the windows so don't expect to find a table to sit down. read more

Not sure why they keep cancelling my doordash orders. But one time when it went through I loved their icecream especially the matcha one. The gluten free chocolate is extremely tough though so I don't recommend. I lived in Berkeley, in which their first store started. Update--- My next orders got cancelled again, and finally one time it went through they sent me a completely wrong item thats not even on the doordash menu. I have feeling that its done on purpose read more

Went here 20 minutes before closing. The clerks behind the counter shooed us away and said they 'had a lot of cleanup to do' We watched them make themselves milkshakes after driving 20 mins to come here. We asked them twice to come in. I recommend avoiding this business. read more

I walked in here hoping for some simple ice cream, and got a whole lot more than I expected, in the best way possible. C.R.E.A.M. has anything you could want in a dessert location, from sundaes and milkshakes to ice cream sandwiches and cookies. Think of this place as a young child's fantasy for most ice cream and sweets thing known to man, and YOU ARE CORRECT that I was transported to a young 7 year old when I walked in here. I can honestly say that I spent about 10 mins looking at everything doe-eyed and confused and excited nervous of how much I could spend at a place like this. As I was with friends and I was actually full, I didn't want to overorder and not end up eating everything. I ended up ordering an ice cream sandwich with a double chocolate chip cookie and a chocolate chip cookie. This place was massive when I came to all of the ice cream flavors they had and they had ALL of the flavors you can think of. I grabbed my ice cream and some toppings (forgot which ones since I had a few too many lol. I paid and went outside to wait and eat. URGENT PSA: They don't tell you this at C.R.E.A.M., but the sandwiches are meant to be an eating race. You are racing against the clock of that ice cream sandwich melting on you. It got messy and I almost lost that race, but those last few bites just had to be some large bites. I did get it everywhere, so grab several napkins (not just one) and go crazy. If I am ever in the Mission and want another sweet treat, this is the spot. (Very close to the BART and commutable by train). read more

They have a good service and there are respectable workers and they have delicious ice cream and cookies fr is really good

Yes I know it's a chain and it hits the spot sometimes (and has for me in the past!!!) so this review is purely based on the scoop of green tea ice cream - this legit tastes like odd, freezer burned vanilla with green food coloring :( Go w a different flavor next time!!!! Also this location is cash only but you can do DoorDash pickup if needed read more

The ice cream was awesome, but the service was laughably bad. I thought the server was talking to either themselves or maybe was addressing me but was just soft-spoken. To my amazement, they were actually face timing someone on their phone which was weird because I could see the other caller! Needless to say they did not address me right away or tell me where the line started. We wanted to eat our ice cream inside since it was cold and dark, but saw the countertop was filled with toppings and sticky from prior customers. We were the only ones inside, but it was clear no one was cleaning in between customers. We ended up leaving... read more

Pistachio ice cream's my favorite here. Second favorite's strawberry and third choice's the rocky road. Ice cream tastes best on waffle cone. The owner was really rice. read more

CREAM - Rocky road and strawberry. They ran out of pistachio flavored ice cream. - Desserts Near Me - San Francisco, California

On paper, this place sounds incredible. Cookies, ice cream, ICE CREAM COOKIE SANDWICHES... it all sounds epic but it did not meet the mark. They have 3 vegan ice cream options and they are probably the worst ice creams I've had. Vegan ice cream is amazing and the options now days are better and better every time I try so it's surprising and disappointing that theirs are pretty bad. The texture is way off-- a little grainy almost and icy. They also have 3 vegan cookie options and they are definitely much much better than the ice creams. I ordered an ice cream sandwich with the oatmeal cookie and chocolate cookie with strawberry ice cream and it was fairly tasty when eaten together but the plain scoops of strawberry and mint chip ice cream's that my dad got were very disappointing. The customer Service experience was also not good. I was waiting to get helped and finally looked around the corner to see one of the employees sitting eating ice cream but when she saw me look, she came to help. I tried to redeem the yelp check in for one free cookie with my purchase and told her I wanted the vegan banana chocolate cookie but once I got home, I realized she gave me a non-vegan cookie which obviously ended up in the trash. I really really hope they will work on getting better choices. I would have expected these vegan ice creams 20 years ago, not in 2021. read more

I finally stopped by CREAM while in the Mission for an after dinner treat. I had a scoop of the birthday cake flavor topped with m&m's and fruity pebbles. SO. DELICIOUS. I thought the serving was fair for the price and very flavorful. There were two young ladies assisting us that were very sweet and helpful on our Sunday night visit. I took my ice cream to go to walk around the neighborhood but there is some stools if you choose to sit. read more

CREAM is a pretty solid spot that specializes in a small variety of ice cream flavors, cookies, and ice cream sandwiches (surprise - a combination of the ice cream and cookies they already offer). The ice cream flavors are fairly standard like cookies & cream, cup of Joe, rocky road, birthday cake. The cookie selection was a little more expansive with a number of different flavors and ability to get mini cookies. Nothing to complain about. read more

Honestly, this place didn't live up to other's reviews. Their cookies aren't good, their milkshakes left a lot to be desired. Their ice cream was just okay and I'm sure there's better in the area. The service was slow and very unprofessional to the customers and the people experiencing homelessness in the area. I would really recommend taking your business elsewhere. read more

CREAM killed it with their ice cream sandwiches for one of my co workers' birthday last week. They delivered everything 10 minutes early than the actual delivery time so I had more than enough time to set everything up. Their packaging was really cute too and none of the sandwiches melted which I'm super happy about. I have had ice cream delivered to our office but nothing has lasted longer than our CREAM order! I will definitely order from here again -- Thank you all again for going above and beyond! read more

Tonight, I had some of the lamest excuse for ice cream in SF. I lazily choose closest over tried & true or fun and innovative, and I got what I deserved - boring, low quality, dreck. The central Mission location and modest price$, can't make up for disengaged, low-energy staff, serving puny portions of flavorless, freezer-burned glop. Oh, with an optional puck of cardboard, poorly masquerading as a fresh baked cookie. Save the calories and the $, or better yet, go a little further for some truly satisfying indulgence. read more

The ice cream and other items are great. The issue: on 5/25 (pick up time 2:59pm) we ordered via yelp/grub hub and were given a time frame to pick up the food. So my son and I waited for that time slot and when we walked in, the woman asked how she could help us. And I said, we are here for pick up. I ordered our 4 milk shakes about 30 minutes ago. She sheepishly grinned and started making the milkshakes. What was the point of ordering on yelp AHEAD of time? This was extremely poor service. There wasn't one person in the store and she was on her phone. I asked her, what was the point of ordering ahead? Basically she has nothing to say because she was slacking. Period. read more

It was my first visit here and I felt really overwhelmed by the choices and options in store. The employee, Dani, was super kind and helpful. She went out of her way to help me and my friend. Dani made the visit to Cream such a treat. Her recommendation to me and my friend were delicious. It's almost as if she knew what we liked. I anticipate my next visit to be very soon and I hope to see Dani again. Enough great and amazing things cannot be said. Until next time read more

Good dessert place (very close to 16th st Bart, and everything else on Valencia st) to check out after dinner in the mission! For our cookie sandwich we got white chocolate macadamia cookie/chocolate chip cookie (they were warm!), cookie and cream ice cream, and no toppings (they had a wide selection tho!) flavor was good, as what you would except from a cookie sandwich ice cream. wish they have a few seats in the store or outside - but understood if not allowed during pandemic. read more

A good place to satisfy your sweet tooth! We tried their ice cream sandwiches and they were pretty good. CREAM had standard ice cream flavors which are classic and reliable, but I wish they experimented more with unique flavors. The cookies were decently chewy, but a bit hard at the end of the day. I was hoping the cookies would be warmed up, but they were given at room temperature. It was $14 even for two ice cream sandwiches. On the pricier end, but the portions were filling. read more

A make your own ice cream sandwich joint. Tons of options for the "buns" like cookies, brownies and do'sants. Even more ice cream and topping options. My own creation was just ok though, but I'm torn about whether that's my fault for my choices or more due to the quality of their options. Do'sant w/ Cookie Dough Ice Cream & Fruity Pebbles: Apparently they're calling it a Do'sant rather than a Cronut®, but it's basically the same hybrid. Seemed kinda smaller than a typical one, especially so as a $6.75 ice cream sandiwch. And it tasted a bit stale. The cookie dough ice cream was just ok; it's no Ben & Jerry's and was definitely not as a heavy on the dough bits. The Fruity Pebbles were a reliable accent on the side. read more
