Samples are generously offered; tried the Dubai Choc. Inspired was yummm!

Ambience: Nostalgic vibe, exquisitely spotless shop with sm tables inside for patrons to enjoy their tasty frozen selections. ***Highly recommend this well managed La Mesa Store where Tyfani represents the best of Baskin Robins.

When we walked in, there were two employees behind the counter and one immediately greeted us. While we were browsing, he made sure to acknowledge us and let us know he'd help when we were ready, which was great. There were so many flavors to choose from. The flavor of the month was Banana Dulce de Leche, but I was feeling nostalgic so I went with what childhood me would have picked, a scoop of cotton candy. My husband got a double with Cookie Monster and Rocky Road. This is exactly what you want from ice cream. Creamy and sweet. The cotton candy flavor instantly took me back to being a kid. We ended up sitting outside on the tables they offer to enjoying our ice cream which made it even better.

Everyone knows people are going for ice cream on a hot day. My disappointment is in the management they only have one young girl working all by herself. I'm gonna say there is at least 20 people in line who were behind me. When I arrived, there's probably about 10 people. The poor girl had to keep mixing the ice cream all by herself. I asked her isn't there anyone here working with you? I've never seen a store only have one employee. She didn't even have anyone there to relieve her for a bathroom break. The young girl worked hard and was very accomplished. I give it to Megan for not giving up. I would've walked out the door and told the manager or the owner to get down to the store and try operate all by their selves. Highly disappointed that someone would allow anyone to work there all by their self without any opportunity for a break. Her arm had to hurt, pulling all that frozen ice cream out and having to mix it with all the extra ingredients that everyone wanted. Most of the people in front of us were ordering a pint or more. I saw her shaking her hand her wrist look like it was really sore. She actually has a pretty good Workmen's Comp. case if she wanted. Hire more help and quit being so cheap. Don't treat your employees like this. Very disappointing.. He lost a lot of clientele too. They saw the line and just turned around and walked away. You're losing money by being so cheap and you're injuring your employees putting them at risk. You can't work someone this hard.
