Manhattan Beach Creamery is an independent, local Manhattan Beach landmark worth a stop for anyone…read morevisiting the area - and multiple visits if they are to your taste. While I've been here a few times this is my first formal review. I came with my family one Sunday evening on a hot July day, bypassing several chains on the way, including the new(er) Salt and Straw across the street. The inside is packed to the brim with sweets, small toys, and people, much like a candy shop of old. After reaching the front of the winding line our family shared a Banana Split ($13) - three scoops of ice cream, a split banana, hot fudge, a single dry topping (we chose coconut), whipped cream, and a trio of cherries - about as classic as it comes. The ice cream was good but not exceptional. The chocolate and strawberry were fairly generic, but I liked the third scoop of banana foster ice cream which had a nice banana kick. I doubt this ice cream is home made. The complements and construction to the sundae were great, however, and the flavors came together well. As I would hope for a location like this, the staff are local youths who served with patience and passion. In cases throughout the store are several of their other specialties - ice cream cookie sandwiches, dipped frozen bananas, and more - inviting repeat visits. Prices are elevated but not crazy for such a trendy area, although I would say with the middling quality of the ice cream a couple dollars less would be fine. Overall, Manhattan Beach Creamery is a local landmark worth at least a single visit for anyone in the area. If you can get past the generic, if a little boring, ice cream flavor and rampant commodification of the interior, you'll find a classic ice cream parlor with great service and history. Is it worth a repeat visit? I leave that to you. Food: 4/5 Service: 4.5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Value: 4/5

And their scoops aren't tiny -- they are the full, overflowing scoop of ice cream. The staff is helpful and friendly. You can try some flavors before you decide what you want to get. Today, the inside was decorated for the World Cup 2026 fans, and there definitely were some global visitors, judging by the languages I overheard in the line while waiting for my turn.

The ice cream and honey just go PERFECT together! Always a good treat.

The place has this classic ice cream shop feel with pastel aesthetics mixed into a modern clean vibe which mixes practicality with style. I LOVE the glass panel decoration and the front decor which are simple details yet convenient decoration. The options have an interesting range in diversity, from ice cream and drinks. Their combinations are so unique, blending trendy flavors like matcha, honey, and many more delicious flavors. My favorite flavor I have tried so far, was the Dalgona Affogato--which I picked because I was thinking of the squid games. The dessert was so smooth but the honey was slightly overbearing. If that is not to your preference, they have other options that can certainly fit to your taste buds. The ice cream is perfectly sweet and an excellent treat in this summer weather. The honey crisps placed on top of the ice were so little, which I wished they had a bit more since it tasted so good with the smooth ice cream. Another thing I hoped was for the affogato to be a bit bigger portion. But then again, I am unsure about the sizings of affogato since this is my first time trying it. Thank you Honeymee Gardena for the experiance, hoping to try more in the future. (Update: Making this edit because I accidentally spelled the cafe name wrong in my previous review which I apologize for. The typo was made because when I was writing the review, I was also very busy so I wrote everything in a hurry and wasn't able to make changes. And yes, this update took so long to be made because when I write reviews, especially in this case, I often do different reviews all at once.)

The ice cream was also pretty creamy and not too hard. I also tried the Birthday Cakes & Blackberries and the Melon & Prosciutto flavors and these were good as well.

The…read morequality was great, and the ice cream was super creamy with flavors you don't usually find anywhere else. I liked that they let you sample as many flavors as you wanted before deciding. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that some of the flavors were a little too adventurous for my taste, and the prices are on the higher side for the portion size. Still, the atmosphere was fun, the staff was friendly and patient, and it was a great spot to cool off with a sweet treat. I'd come back to try their seasonal flavors again.

The pomegranate is also delicious I tried the pink lemonade today and that was sooo good too. Although advertised as "tart" it's actually not as tart as the passion from mango jasmine flavor.

Those two Nutella cookies alone were amazing, put a scoop of delicious ice cream in the middle and it was heaven. When they asked me if I wanted it warmed, I figured, why not! But I was thinking to myself, its ice cream how is that going to work, but it did and was delicious! I'll admit, it was super hard to eat, though I still managed to destroy it for lunch! If you are getting the ice cream sandwich, you choose the base and then the ice cream and its easy. It was so good, I hope to get back there while in the area. Just three tables inside, so it is a small store, though I'm sure if there wasn't a festival outside that it there would be other places to sit outside. Highly recommend a visit here!
