Perfect place to cool down and grab some ice cream or other treats like shaved ice, smoothie, frappe, frozen banana or milk shake. Owner was so kind and hospitable. He has been there for 26 years! Open 7 days a week. There is seating inside the shop. Recommend stopping by :) read more

You close to the beach, a boardwalk, pier and good clean ocean air; ice cream is going to work! 5 Stars because it's ice cream, the service is great, they carry the Thrifty brand which means it's delicious, lots of flavors to choose from, so yeah, location, location, location. Ice Cream; what's your favorite? Paid parking structure close by. It's on the shoreline so, yes, you'll pay to park. read more

What a great break from the fun walk on the Redondo Beach Pier. International Ice Cream is so good. The place is very cute and it is small, but never seems too crowded. Going there in the heat of the summer is the most fun. You might even be able to find a place to sit there, if not, there is plenty of seating all over the pier. The place is very clean and painted in cute colors. The service is nice and fast and they are good with kids. It is just family fun. You can have a cone or a cup. They have a good selection of flavors and what we had was super. The prices are fair. You will like this place. It is centrally located on the pier and just a fun thing to do. Create some memories of this great pier and have some ice cream. read more

Ok this was the best frozen banana I've ever had! Was it luck? Who knows! The chocolate was solid and the banana was cold and soft. No teeth breaking happening here like I have with pretty much every other frozen banana I've ever had. Cute, fun colors inside. Sometimes the guy can be a little salty but he was very friendly this time, he's always attentive. Cash only, thrifty ice cream read more

I love coming here for the bubble gum ice cream. It is from thriftys and is so good. Pricing is fair. read more

This is my wife and I go to ice cream shop when we are in Redondo. The service is mid, but the ice cream is great.

Love this place! They sell Thriftys which is my absolute favorite, it's also right on the pier so it's always good vibes. The lady was so nice and went above and beyond to feed my baby girl some vanilla ice cream. It made our day! read more

So I felt nostalgic when I saw there was the OG thrifty ice cream. This ice cream is OLD. I asked to exchange for a different flavor. After only one bite of the ice cream. I should've known when it said CASH ONLY. Big mistake. The owner chose not to give me anything else. For $9 a scoop. Ridiculous owner and customer service. BE WARNED Don't GO read more

International Ice Cream - Pecan praline was very good. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

Ice cream is always good, but having it on a sunny day at the Redondo Beach Pier is just the best way to have ice cream They have different types of cones or you can get a cup. Their selection is vast and the prices are good. There really is no place to sit there, but there are lots of nice spots right near by. It is a cute place and the staff is nice and they have enough staff so there is not a long wait. We really enjoyed it. read more

Visited on Monday, 07/25/22 for the first time. My boyfriend and I ate at Quality Seafood and wanted something cold and sweet after, so we stumbled at International Ice Cream Parlor. We ordered the following (we dined in): - Double Scoop Ice Cream Cup (2 flavors: Green Tea & Sherbet): $7.75 So good! I will say that this is Thrifty Ice Cream so the ice cream here is not 'authentically made' there. We enjoyed our dessert and there are limited chairs/tables inside. CASH ONLY! read more

My family, boyfriend, and I were looking for a dessert place and settled on grabbing ice cream here. We ended up getting two banana splits between my mom, brother, dad, and I. Then we got a single scoop of coffee for my boyfriend since we wanted nuts on top of our sundae and flavors with nuts in it and my boyfriend is unfortunately allergic to nuts. The pricing of the banana splits seemed off to me, but we thought nothing of it as we waited for our banana splits to be made. But when I went to grab my boyfriend's ice cream, I noticed that his single scoop was actually two scoops. Then I saw him starting on one of the banana splits and realized he was doing double scoops for each flavor. This was when I realized our mistake lolz It was quite hilarious bringing out the ice cream because they looked like double decker buses. The ice creams were so rich and creamy in comparison to other ice creams that I had before. I wish we did get double bananas too, but already it felt like we were given a generous amount of ice creams and toppings. It was nice to also be able to sit outside to eat our ice creams. And don't worry. We finished all the ice cream lolz I can't wait to come back again to try their other flavors! read more

I give Jack five stars because he has tirelessly committed himself to the Redondo Beach Pier through his ice cream parlor. His daughter created all the art outside and she helps their family business artistically. Support family businesses! My wife and I were able to spend a few moments, during lockdown from covid, to talk to him. I find him to be fair and honest and committed to his community. Give his ice cream a try! read more

This has become our go-to dessert stop after eating at Captain Kids. Cute little ice cream shop at Redondo Beach pier. They have 31 flavors of ice cream plus other items (see pic of menu board) and everything we've tasted has been delicious. Very friendly customer service, really does feel like classic "mom and pop". Always pleasant and welcoming. It is cash only and they have signs clearly posted. read more

Love visiting this place whenever I am at Redondo Pier! One thing I love about this place is that all the ice cream options are Thrifty's ice cream. Who doesn't love Thrifty's? One thing to note is this place is cash only so make sure you have some cash with you when you go! My favorite flavor is the Caramel Malted Crunch. I love a good ice cream with some texture! You can also turn any ice cream flavor into a milkshake. I have yet to do that! read more

Delicious! While my husband skated at the skatepark we got.. single scoop ice cream on a waffle cones and it was the perfect snack on a hot summer Sunday afternoon. We tried: pistachio, butter pecan, coffee, and french vanilla which were 10/10. read more

Worst chocolate covered banana I've ever had, and they are severely over priced. No samples either, so you're just blindly choosing some gross ice cream. read more

Pretty standard ice cream shop with reasonable prices to portions. Shop owner was very generous and accommodating. Plenty of clean seating too. We got the rocky road, pistachio, and coconut pineapple in a cup. Generous amounts of almonds, and marshmallows. And the pistachio flavor was actually strong instead of bland. Coconut pineapple actually had coconut and pineapple chunks in it. Rich, smooth, and creamy. People who are comparing it to Dreyers and Thrifty's need to get real. I love Thrifty's but this was higher quality. And Dreyers/Breyers is disgusting. It's not even ice cream. Don't even get me started with that brand. CASH ONLY BY THE WAY!! read more

Great service (: banana split was fully packed with ice cream whipped cream sprinkles and cherries. Very friendly and fair price. Definitely bringing the kids again. Jack and Michelle were very very nice read more

So I have a thing for sweets...and this is about as good as it gets. There's nothing like enjoying a cold treat on the beach. The service was excellent and with COVID19 I paid extra attention to hygiene practices and social distancing which was strictly enforced. read more

Shop owners are very nice and generous. My husband and I got the banana split and shared it...it was huge!

So yummy! read more

The tubs show "Thrifty's Ice Cream" I ordered a single scoop of chocolate chip on a cake come $4.99 What's worse is that my ice cream gritty and sandy. I threw it away. Ewwww don't go! There's a soft serve ice cream that's better on the other side. read more

I think this place is family owned but am not sure. Every time I go in, I see what looks like an older couple running an ice cream shop. They are both kind and sweet. Lovely people and location. Ice cream is pretty standard, nothing too special. Of all the pier ice cream joints, I usually go to this one, since they are all standard ice cream... why not go to the one with kind and fast service! read more

They have marked lines outside of the store front to ensure that you're safety social distancing yourself from others. They have thrifty ice cream and it's such a great taste of nostalgia read more

The ice cream looked good here, even though it was from Thrifty's. I asked the lady behind the counter if I could get two scoops of the bubble gum ice cream on a cone. I had asked for a cone, but she wanted to give me a cup instead. I then asked if I could get a cone instead, and she insisted that I get a cup since the two scoops would fall over (condescendingly). I said thanks and walked out without buying anything (I don't know why this is any of their concern). I have seen several pictures from google reviews showing two scoops on a cone, and I had ordered two scoops on a cone 1 year ago without an issue. I ended up going to the Gelato store on the Redondo Beach Pier instead, and ordered two scoops on a waffle cone there. They had better customer service & flavors to choose from. Looks like the International Ice Cream Parlor just lost a very hungry and paying customer who enjoys ice cream. read more

This is the best little ice cream spot on the Pier. The sweet Korean couple who owns and operates it are always kind and welcoming. The ice cream gallons say they're Thrify ice cream but I can't seem to wrap my head around that considering I have had Thrify ice cream from Rite Aid and it tastes no where near as good as this. My personal favs are the green tea and cotton candy on a waffle cone :) which is probably the best waffle cone I've ever had. I haven't tried their banana split or shaved ice but those both look absolutely sinful! read more

I had a hankering for a coke float, so I walked a mile from my hotel with much anticipation. When I got to the counter and ordered I was told"no, we don't make those." I said can you put ice cream in a cup and sell me that can of coke? I was told"no, we don't do that". I guess they're not looking for customers, very poor customer service. read more

Order the banana split and realize that this place does it professionally! Also, you get to choose whatever flavor your banana split is so you don't have to stick to the standard neopalitan (chocolate/strawberry/vanilla) combo. This thing was the works with the sliced banana (split) in half, my three flavors of ice cream (pistacho nut/rockyroad/strawberry), whip cream, crumbled peanuts, butterscotch and chocolate syrup toped with three maraschino cherries. I haven't had a banana split this good in years! Cold Stone, eat your expensive heart out. Errr, this was pricey at $6.50. The interior is really small so I'd rather eat outside. The service was done with a smile and a lot of care. Check this place out for dessert after you stuff your face at Quality Seafood (http://www.yelp.com/biz/quality-seafood-redondo-beach). read more

Felt like treating myself to some ice cream today. Price was a little steep for a simple cone of Thrifty's ice cream, but I got my favorite flavor anyway. As I was walking out I took a bite of my chocolate malted crunch and had a weirdly soggy piece but thought nothing of it. Maybe some marshmallow flavor fell in or something. Continued walking and had a couple more bites with this weird chewy soggy piece and finally realized it was supposed to be the crunch in my chocolate malted crunch. I decided I didn't feel like having a crap cone of ice cream today so I went back. The guy was really rude to me asking "why didn't you come back sooner?" "Nobody else complained about it" "it's only you that's complained you should have come back right after you tasted it" He ended up giving me a new cone...of course it was only half full of ice cream because I had obviously eaten enough stale ice cream already. Very rude guy who was basically accusing me of trying to scam him. I will NEVER go here again. Thriftys ice cream is a dollar and some change for a cone and this rude guy charges nearly $5 for a cone. Such a rip off. read more

It's more Thrifty's ice cream than "international" ice cream. Even the green tea ice cream is Thrifty's. I love Thrifty's, but I actually came here looking for the international part. Other than that, service is friendly. read more

About 15 flavors of Dryers Ice cream and shaved ice here. I was hoping for homemade stuff. The name led me to believe it would be something different. The birthday cake Dryers was exactly what my 4-year-old wanted. The pina colada shaved ice was inedible. Tasted more like tanning lotion than syrup. Blech! Stick to the store bought stuff and you'll be OK. Maybe. read more

The ice cream was barely edible, and the service sucked. My kids talked about how rude the employee was when we left, and it kinda ruined a beautiful evening at the pier. We'll get our ice cream somewhere else next time. read more
