    Lots of options, some unique flavors.
    Cho C.

    Located on the first floor of the mall, near the family restrooms and kids play area, this is a modern American style version of some Mexican treats. Lots of hand crafted ice cream bar options, corn snacks-esquite, duritos, Agua fresca drinks, and other snacks. A few things of note. If you don't speak any Spanish, you may have a hard time ordering. The one lady working that day, wasn't speaking any English, only Spanish. That's expected I suppose ordering snacks focused on Mexican treats, but definitely speak Spanish or bring a friend that can if you visit here. Cost. Because it's located in the mall, expect triple the cost if you got it outside the mall. Esquite was $9+. We spent about $65 on 6 different snacks. Decor is bright and entertaining. Kids would love to see the colorful artwork on the walls, and brightly lit. Tables were covered with churro sugar and ice cream drips, so I wish it was a little bit cleaner. Guess it is hard since there's no trash can inside the place. You eat the snack and take it outside to throw anything away. Lastly, there was an added "service" charge. It was an additional $2+ randomly on the receipt. I tried asking what the fee was about... was that a credit card fee or what? The lady didn't explain it to us, so we just let it go. Careful with additional random fees using a card. The Star drops were for the cleanliness and the extra random fee. I "may" come back if I absolutely crave the treats, but the fees and cost of going here is going to hold some people back no matter how tasty the treats were.

    Absolutely love this place. They have a great assortment of ice cream that is water based and also milk based. Definitely love their water based piña con chamoy (Pineapple w/Chili -not spicy but with a little hit). The esquite (corn in a cup) has mayo, cheese and chili.. all upon request. Definitely a must try while you're shopping at the mall and need a little something to keep going.

    I'm not typically up for icecream but my wife is prego and her cravings were going on. As soon as I walked in the vibe was placid with good music. The amount of ice cream to choose from is Amazing. I highly recommend coming in and enjoying it for yourself. Gabby was great and very patient even though my wife got 10 things lol.

    Ana the rude worker

    Ana who works here acts like she can't speak not a single once of English.. and she is super rude and just has a nasty look on her face the whole time. If you speak to her in Spanish she still has a nasty look on her face.. so idk what it is.. maybe she hates her job? Find a new one then & they are expensive! My daughter got a ice cream in a cup with a cone on top and she charged us 1$ for the cone that comes with the ice cream

    They have other locations and I believe their store in the Brea mall is still relatively new, but they remain consistent. They always have a large selection of flavors to choose from. I particularly enjoy their paletas with their gumny bear lemonade one and their ferrero rocher paleta being my favorite. Something to note would be that they definitely did a good job at hiring staff. The lady that was working that day was really kind and explained the flavors that weren't in English well. I think nowadays, there are less reltail/food workers that are polite in general. So when someone is polite, it's much appreciated.

    $11 drink (overpriced) for it to have rotten mango , probably better to go to any other spot nearby

The 2 girls working the front were super sweet and gave free samples. I ended up getting the Sharkleberry Fin Gelati. It was the perfect fruity and sweetness without being overwhelmingly sugary. My partner got the Cola Gelati, which tasted like cola but in a lighter, more refreshing way. They offer sugar-free options! I sampled the Sugar-Free Mango Peach, but unfortunately, the flavor was a bit lacking for me. Easy parking lot with plenty of space. Small seating area both inside and outside, but most people seemed to be grabbing their treats to-go.

They did a good job keeping things moving, even with people stopping to sample different flavors. I got the Vanilla + Chocolate Twist frozen custard, which was super thick and creamy. My boyfriend got the Cookies N' Cream gelati with vanilla frozen custard on top. Both were solid choices, and we really enjoyed our desserts! The interior was clean and had a good amount of seating, although it seemed like most people were grabbing their desserts to go. I noticed more people enjoying their treats outside instead. The plaza was also pretty spacious, so we had no trouble finding a parking spot.

We went a few months ago but I didn't go in (the parking lot is always pretty packed because it's shared with other busy businesses) and waited in the car while my family went in to order. Everyone raved, like for weeks, about the ice cream, and even though I didn't order anything, I still took their word for it because they are absolute ice cream snobs. Fast forward to yesterday when we were in the neighborhood again. I found 15-minute parking right outside the shop and from the moment we opened the door, everything was the best. The place: adorable and clean, with free water and a stack of napkins next to the water cups. A super clean restroom, too. The samples: they didn't skimp, and metal, full-size sample spoons? A nice eco-friendly touch. The service: just lovely. The flavors: I never thought I'd like pineapple in my ice cream, but the pineapple upside down cake took me back to the kitchen of my childhood (it was one of my mom's specialties,) and the pineapple didn't interfere, wasn't weird or chewy...it just blended so well with all the other flavors and textures. Another winner: the blueberry cheesecake. Oh my gosh. Next time, I'm bringing the insulated bags and stocking up on some pints. This is some of the best ice cream around, I promise you.

    Blue Scoop Creamery offers unique, seasonal ice cream flavors. What I love about them is that they…read morealso have vegan options. My husband and I came by on a late Friday night. There were a lot of people already inside - a great sign! More people were filtering in while we were browsing their ice cream. I decided on their Blackberry Cobbler. It's a vanilla oat milk base with blackberry jam swirl and cobbler crumbles. It was light and refreshing. The jam added the perfect amount of sweetness. The crumbles added a nice crunchy contrast. This was definitely a summer flavor! They have parking near the front which is also shared with other businesses in the plaza. They have plenty of seating inside with tables for large and small groups. The staff is friendly and efficient. The ice cream was also reasonably priced. I recommend Blue Scoop Creamery. I love a dessert spot that sells seasonal flavors. It keeps it exciting on every visit. I'm glad my husband and I could add this to our list of dessert shops in Brea.

I did want the strawberry matcha, but I think the employee might have misheard me. They have coconut milk! I was happy they have more options than most places. Anyway, it's fine, because the drink is still a matcha, which was what I wanted. The matcha was extremely bitter before mixing. I almost thought it might be unsweetened, but after using a straw to stir, it tasted just right. There are books and board games here. Overall, very clean and modern look. A little worried I might not be able to sleep early today, but at least the drink is yummy! The second time, I have proof so I know for sure I asked for strawberry matcha. Will I be able to try it? Maybe they ran out, or maybe they forgot. Either way, I've been paying a little extra for it each time. It is a little busy on a Thursday morning. Croissants look great and huge, but cost about the same as a drink.The matcha itself tastes okay. However, there is too much ice in there for my liking.
