Have a sweet tooth? This is your place. All made in house and so much to choose from. The brownies are a perfect indulgence: chewy, rich but not too rich, and oh so yummy. The peanut butter ones have a heart drawn on top. What a sweet little gift! Open until 10 pm and even later. Local Ice cream. Seating inside. And coffee, of course. Um, perfect. read more

Girl insisted they were closing 30 min earlier than posted, then proceeded to serve her friends right after we left.

Great area to walk around and enjoy the college campus ambiance. We went here on a Sunday night and it was a lively night out with students riding bikes around, live music in the surrounding area and ambient lighting on the streets. We got two cookiewiches, it's nice because you get to choose two different cookies and an ice cream flavor. I wish the cookies were fresher because they all tasted stale and were rock hard. Maybe if they warmed it up before it would have been better? If I had to choose, the best cookie was probably the brown butter chocolate chip but the peanut butter cookie was so hard I couldn't take more than two bites. Ice cream was great though! Try the sweet bream caramel brownie ice cream. Staff was very friendly! read more

Had a great experience, parked right across the street in 15min parking. As I walked in, was greeted by a friendly employee. Was offered a sample of their cookie and brownie they have. Gave me a taste of ice creams as I contemplated on building my Cookiewich. Fun and tasty selection of cookies and mcconnells ice cream. So glad I stopped by, not only did it hit the sweet spot craving but affordable as well. read more

Perfect spot to cure your cookie and dessert cravings after a nice meal! This shop offers more than just cookies. They also offer coffee and brownies. Of course their famous favorite is the Cookiewich which is basically an It's-It ice cream. You pick 2 of their fresh cookies and then choose your ice cream flavor for them to pack in between the cookies. I chose a brown butter cookie, S''mores cookie and then mint chocolate chip ice cream. The cookies are fresh, firm on the outside and soft on the inside! I thought I wouldn't be able to finish eating it but I was wrong! It was delish! read more

The girl behind the register was very nice! I was expecting more of a cafe but it's more centered around pastries and ice cream. I would recommend if you want cookies especially since they do photo printing on their cookies now read more

Super tasty and affordable! Small shop with a big variety of treats. Got an ice cream sandwich with s'mores cookies and lemon marionberry ice cream. As well as a bag of day old cookies! The sandwich was so tasty and the cookies were warm and chewy, weirdly complimented my ice cream choice. The day old bag of cookies was dope, got 7 for $2 and there was a variety of flavors. Service was nice, very quick and helpful. Definitely stop by here for a sweet treat. read more

The atmosphere here is nice. It's a cute little ice cream shop in a college town. However, the cookies are mid. They're dry, and lack flavor. The ice cream is from mcconnells so it's pretty delicious. If i were to refer something I'd say get a scoop of ice cream on a waffle cone. The service is good and fast. read more

Brown butter chocolate chip cookie 8.36/10- this cookie was actually delicious however I could not resist temptation to eat it and burnt my tongue cause it was too hot. The brown butter taste was unique and added so much flavor. Thoroughly enjoyed, I wanted another one after consuming. Also melts in mouth read more

IV Drip has great food (in particular their cookies and desserts), but beyond that, their service is unmatched! They are so kind and accommodating and even made specially-decorated cookies for my kiddo so we could surprise her with an upcoming trip, AND they packaged it so it would make it all the way back home in one piece! I'm pretty sure the owner here is one of the nicest human beings ever. read more

Amazing ice cream! And the cookies tastes good as well, recommend to anyone that comes to IV

i hate to say it but iv drip is overhyped. the cookies are pretty hit or miss. some are good and others are meh or rock hard. the cookie sandwiches specifically are super underwhelming, but service is friendly and most items are good read more

This is a super good little ice cream place. The place is a bit cramped but the scooper was super chill. The ice cream was of utmost quality and the cookies were soft and warm. I thoroughly enjoyed an ice cream sandwich and would definitely recommend. read more

Cute little ice cream and treat shop in the middle of UCSB residential area. The McConnell's ice cream is phenomenal but the brown butter chocolate chip cookie was not great. The employees were very friendly and welcoming. read more

Always epic cookies and confections in the heart of Isle Vista. Small hole in the wall and acceptable service, likely by local gauchos. Catch some delicious McConnells late night here. read more

Great place to snag McConnell's ice cream in Goleta. The place is tiny so the line gets a little chaotic when it's busy.

I have very mixed feelings about IV Drip and have been putting off this review for quite some time because of them. I love the concept, the affordable pricing, the fact they carry McConnell's Ice Cream, the late night hours, the variety of desserts, and even the creative name... But something about their cookies really just doesn't sit right with me, the staff always seem to have their head in the clouds, and the environment is pretty dirty to say the least. Now I have to admit, I have been here very many times and I will be back due to the lack of dessert options in the Isla Vista area. However, the ingredients in the cookies are just somewhat off for my taste buds. Maybe they use too much baking powder, extra salt, a secret ingredient my tongue is picking up on that I don't understand... I don't know! All I know is that I have given them so many tries and still do not love them, but the location and price get me coming back. If I had to recommend my "favorites" I would say try the Nutella Brownie, Chocolate Covered Strawberry McConnell's flavor (they always seem to have in stock), and the Butterscotch Toffee cookie. All very different but all the best quality items they have, in my opinion. Have yet to try their coffee drinks but have not heard the best of things about those either. Either way, will probably be back. read more

Never know when they will be open or not. So in that regard they are unreliable. Their products are ok not amazing.

So I went to school here and in my 4 years I never tried a cookiewich till now, 3 years after I graduated Just making myself sound old Anyways I like how you can pick two different cookies and both cookie and ice cream were top fkngggg notch !!!! read more

IV Drip - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Isla Vista, California

If you're in Isla Vista and simply do not want to make the trip downtown for some McConnell's ice cream, IV Drip is your answer. They serve a limited selection of McConnell's, which includes some of my favorites--Cookies n Cream, Cookie Dough, and Sea Salt Cream and Cookies. For those who want more than ice cream, they have a large selection of freshly-baked cookies. If you are in the mood for both cookies and ice cream, go for their famous cookie-which. It is two homemade cookies with a scoop of ice cream in between. The prices are so-so. I got a two scoop for $5 and then returned a few days later to try the 3 scoop for $7. I was a little disappointed that they were roughly the same size. For $7 I was definitely expecting to get a sizable serving, especially since I was splitting it. My recommendation is to just go for the 2 scoop and save a couple of dollars. read more

yay for being open late and for serving great ice cream! I'm definitely a fan of the salted caramel ice cream. I've had a few cookiewiches here before too. It satisfies the sweet tooth craving, that's for sure, but the cookies are just overwhelmingly too sweet for me. Though I've yet to try all the flavors offered (one day, eventually), the price for a scoop of ice cream is pretty pricy; same goes for the cookiewich. It seems like they've hiked up their prices a little, but that little bit makes all the difference to me. I'd rather buy myself a pint of ice cream, but I won't mind dropping by for a scoop if my friends and I decide to have a sweet treat here. read more

IV Drip - blueberry ice cream, mint choco chip cookies! cool color combo, but the cookies were just way too sweet for me. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Isla Vista, California

Dear IV Drip, I'm sorry, but Yelp's phrase for two stars, "meh, I've experienced better" was pretty much my experience with you. There are a fair number of high-star reviews here, and I don't generally like to post low-star reviews. But let me outline the reasons why I am: - Despite the shop's own employees acknowledging that they should have vegan options in their sweet baked goods and/or ice cream, they don't. There are a lot of vegans in this area and it just makes sense to offer vegan options, both for environmental and capitalist reasons (you'd sell many vegan cookies, I promise) - While one server was friendly, the other staff member seemed absolutely bored and lackadaisical (adjective: lacking enthusiasm and determination; carelessly) - My Americano tasted much more watery than an Americano is meant to (it's my drink of choice and while my experience does not account for a thorough sampling of all Americanos in existence, I do feel qualified to make this judgment) - The cup it was served in had a few spots where a dried unknown substance clung to its outer lip (but hey, at least you do ceramic reusable mugs) - Despite shaking the jug of oatmilk on the counter which I decided to add to my Americano to try and improve the drink, what came out was a watered-down stream of almost clear liquid. As I mentioned, I shook the jug, so this wasn't just due to the natural sedimentation of plant milks - I had contacted your shop via Facebook before I ever visited to ask about catering an event, and never received a reply--even though this is at present their only mode of contact aside from walking in Sadly, this earns two stars. IV Drip, you can do better. read more

You know, I was a little sad to plunk down $8.50 for a milkshake, but just one sip convinced me that it was worth every penny. For shakes, they'll mix up to two ice cream flavors. I went with Turkish coffee and cookies and cream and since they use McConnell's ice cream, every slurp was so perfectly rich and delicious. Whenever I stop by here, the baristas are so friendly and helpful. As I ordered my shake, one mentioned that they'll even blend a cookie or a brownie into it for an additional cost. Unfortunately for my diet, I'll be trying that next time! read more

Came here on a Sunday evening with the family! I had a smoothie and my family ordered ice cream. Everything tasted great, and the servers were super kind and friendly. Unfortunately, the store was super crowded when we came, and they were definitely understaffed with only two people working, but the workers were so sweet and handled it well. read more

4 stars for the ice cream: cookies n cream, salted caramel, and chocolate chip 3 stars for the cookies: I got the ice cream sandwich and the cookies were unfortunately a little too hard for me. I love half baked cookies and the ones here didn't make the cut. Aside from that, the ice cream here is pretty tasty! I would've given this place a 3.5 rating if I could. read more

Incredible little shop of wonder filled confections! Tom and the rest of the staff are all so warm and welcoming. It is easy to see how this spot has been in business 12 years strong in little Isla Vista. Family had an assortment of cookiewiches that included McConnell's coffee and toffee ice creams, smores cookie! Toffee cookie, old fashioned chocolate chip and a pink sugar cookie. I decided to sample their sweets and stuck to the jitters. Their beans are organically sourced and from first sip I could tell they knew how to brew. My red eye was delicious! I sipped a bit of the espresso before adding the coffee and the flavor of the shot was outstanding; hot but well pulled so as to not be scorching, full bodied in profile so as to avoid being watery or too muddy. And the Ethiopian Yirgacheffe roast! Oh man... Please do yourself a favor and support this spot. Don't take my word for it though. Try it yourself! There are also various items for sale like cups, hydro flasks and their logo tank top I picked up for only $9.95! Stop by. Thanks. Peace read more

Best place in IV to satisfy a late-night (or mid-day...or morning) cookie craving! The brown butter chocolate chip cookies are out of this world! They also carry McConnell's ice cream and brownies and you can order cookie-wiches (ice cream & cookie sandwich) and brownie-wiches. If you don't think you can finish a whole cookie, order a deconstructed cookie-wich and save the cookies for later! PRO-TIP: if you're getting a cookie, ask for it warmed up --delicious! read more

If you love cookies and ice cream, this place is definitely for you! They sell McConnell's ice cream if you can't make it out to downtown. I got the salted caramel and the turkish coffee which were both very flavorful. For the "one scoop" you can get two flavors It's a small place- more of a grab and go. The prices were a bit steep, but I guess that's what I have to pay for good ice cream. Hoping to make it to the actual shop next time so I can catch more flavors! P.S the GPS calls this place FOUR DRIP hahaha. read more

As the premiere place for desserts in Isla Vista, I.V. Drip has literally everything you could want for an after-dinner snack. You can tell from the way that a crowd builds in the store when it's 9 p.m. They stock McConnell's ice cream (marionberry and lemon and chocolate-covered strawberry are my favorites) along with an assortment of homemade baked goods. Each and every one of their specialty brownies (Ghirardelli-based) is delicious, especially in brownie butt form. As I mentioned in my Yelp tip, ask the baristas if they have brownie butts that day! They'll normally sell it in a cookie sleeve for $2, and it's so worth it because they don't get stale. I'm also in love with their s'mores cookies and hot chocolate, which is made with real milk and chocolate syrup. They're rich and satisfy all the sweet teeth in my mouth, because let's be real here--there's more than one sweet tooth. Every single barista I've met is super personable and friendly, and have never messed up an order. I recommend playing around with all the different items on their menus because you probably won't get anything you don't like. Next on the to-try list for me is a latte bomb, which is a scoop of ice cream in a latte, or the large acai bowls. read more
