    vegan s'more the merrier taco
    Grace X.

    I was so excited to come here when I saw that they offer vegan ice cream tacos! I've been wanting to try one of these for a long time and this is one of the only places I've ever seen with a vegan option. I got the plant based s'more the merrier taco, which was so good! I love that they even have vegan marshmallows for it. They also had several vegan ice cream flavors for scooping, and everything was very clearly labelled. The service was super friendly and I picked up a free sticker too.

    This place is so yummy and they have a descent amount of vegan options. I believe they have four and they were all delicious. On Mother's Day, they gave away a mini bouquet of flowers and a pint of ice cream. Unfortunately, I wasn't one of the first ten that also got a nice glass jar to store goodies in. I did see some people walk about with just the freebies and that was kind of annoying to see. I think they should have at least purchased something. They should have restricted the freebies to customers only. I ended up gifting the free non-vegan option to my mother (she loved it) and my hubby bought me a vegan pint for myself. Inside there is no seating but they have 2 benches outside. While there is a small parking lot in the back, the parking lot gets full quickly and street parking can be tricky. Their ice cream is really tasty and they even decorate your ice cream with extra toppings like sprinkles and vegan marshmallows. This is one of our new favorite ice cream shops!

    This place is soooo cute! You walk in and it's bright, clean, and organized. I loved reading the menu as the different flavors of ice cream were unexpected. The owner was really kind and offered samples. One thing I appreciate is you sample with an actual spoon. It wasn't plastic or wooden, it was a gold spoon. I felt fancy. The little scoop was enough for me. I don't eat ice cream much so I liked the ability to enjoy without being wasteful. At first glance, pricing seemed high. However, quality ingredients plus the beauty of the shop makes it all make sense. Parking is a hassle. There's a small lot or street parking. You may need to drive around a bit. The parlor has a pizza place neighbor and more food across the street. I wish you could make your own taco! That would be amazing. I definitely think everyone should try it out.

    Such a cute ice cream place with so many options! Parking was full and the shop was busy when we stopped by. Street parking is advised for easy access. There was a line, but it's mostly due to customers sampling and having a great experience in trying different flavors. Guests are given golden sampling spoons which is very different from usual ice cream places! Limited and location exclusive flavors are posted on their website. Spring Fling is one of their seasonal flavors of matcha and lime. It was an enjoyable combo and not too overwhelming in lime flavor. Things+Stuff contains pretzel cream and peanut butter. The scoop itself contained a decent amount of mix ins. There are so many interesting flavors to try with locally sourced ingredients. I hope to stop by again!

    Positioned right next to Corner pizza and across the street from Tanners and Homestate, Little Fox is a great stop for a sweet treat after a meal or on its own. It's a small shop with a ton of unique flavors. My recent visit here was due to meeting a friend who really wanted to try Tanners and specifically also requested Little Fox. This was great because they are so close. I got the RBF which is a root beer flavored concoction. It was good. Not too overpowering and between the cream and the root beer flavors it was so well balanced. My friend got the diet riot since she is a big chocolate fan. She absolutely loved hers. There really isn't an area to sit and eat your ice cream except for one bench outside so keep that in mind. Most people just stand out front on the sidewalk and enjoy. Definitely stop by for their unique flavors if you are in the area.

    My daughter and I strolled over to Little Fox for some ice cream while we aired for our Tanners burgers and wow, we were happy we did! I had the Banana Pancake ice cream and it may be the best ice cream I've had in my life. The place is cute and the people very helpful and the flavors or inspired and elevated without being ridiculous. Also, my daughter had the Lavender Haze and it was amazing, as well! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

    The best way to end a night in Oceanside is definitely at Little Fox. The variety of ice creams (with many Gluten free options) and their willingness to help you sample until you find the right one is unmatched. Bonus points for using silverware for sampling instead of disposable single use plastics. That's my biggest gripe with other places, and Little Fox earns so many points for doing that. Their cones are high quality and help up while we enjoyed them. Parking is in a bit of a tight area as they're next to Tanners and Home State, but it's certainly worth it. Make sure your next craving for a sweet treat is fulfilled here. You will not regret it.

    Very good ice cream Different flavors that are very rich but subtle Service was really good and the place was very cute. Gets very busy but lucked out and got there when there was 3 people in line. Otw out, the line was long again

    I've ended up here several times after dinner in the area. Ice cream always sounds like good after dinner treat, but I'm honestly disappointed every time. The flavors are kind of good on the sample spoon, but after a few bites, the ice cream always ends up underwhelming and icy. I get it, it's ice cream, but I guess I prefer more creamy over icy. Note that they don't have any tables, just three sticky benches outside.

    Things and Stuff Flavor
    Michelle S.

    Such a cute craft ice cream shop in South Oceanside. I have been here a few times and love it. The flavor profiles of the ice creams are unique and inventive while also paying homage to classics. The ice cream is house made and pasteurized. They have gluten free options too. You can choose between a cone, a cup or even some flavors are available in their adorable ice cream tacos! My first time there, I got "things & stuff" flavor which is peanut butter pretzel-y flavor in a cone! So good! The taste is unmatched and the quality ingredients are evident. Second time around I chose the "let them eat cake" flavor which is a birthday cake flavor. I loved it. Portable, fun, and definitely delicious. It was a warm day and did not melt all over the place because the ice cream was insulated in the taco "cone". The shop is clean, cute, and bright. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable about the the flavors, ingredients and will help you if you have trouble deciding! Parking in this area can be a challenge, but at 3pm on a Monday, I found a spot. Definitely plan to walk a little bit if you come on the weekends, but that's part of the adventure!

    Such a cute little ice cream shop with so many unique flavors! Each flavor also comes with a cute decoration which is so thoughtful.

    Lavender and banana ice cream
    Alice C.

    Amazing ice cream flavors. We got to try a the flavors and decide what we wanted. There was a bit of wait but it goes by pretty quick! Cute interior as well, sample spoons are gold plated and employees are all reallly sweet.

    Lavender haze, once upon a time
    Jorge G.

    Today was my second time comming in and the ice creams soo good and it's organic so when I eat it I feel like I'm losing weight. The service is also always really good, even when there busy I feel like the workers are always still really nice and patient when sampling different flavors. The overall vibe so chill too because they have plants around the shop making it feel really homey.

    We had Handel's Cater for our wedding in Oceanside, CA and got to work with the Carlsbad location…read more Once I sent an inquiry through Handel's website, we got connected to their catering manager, Alexa. Coordination was strictly through email for contracts and any questions. It was a bit confusing to understand the serving size and what we were looking for even though we asked for clarification. We decided to go with Handel's as our dessert as I had experienced their catering at another wedding I attended. At that wedding, they ran out of ice cream before the bride and groom could get their share. Therefore, I was worried about us running out. What I wished I did when deciding what serving size to choose was look at the Google Reviews for the location, because so many people said the serving size is huge! Those folks are correct! When Handel's came onsite, the medium serving was more than enough for our guests and I feel like we could have downsized to small serving and folks could have tried the multiple flavors we had gotten. I will also say since I've only tried Handel's once at the wedding I attended, choosing the flavors can be difficult since there isn't a description of the flavors on their website. I would suggest if you are considering Handel's for your event to try the different in-person. Luckily for us, we loved the flavors we chose of blueberry cheesecake, dulce de leche, vegan mango, and watermelon ice. (We are located in NorCal and the closest Handel's location is a bit away from us.) Other than that, overall the experience was great and we were happy with the service!

Since, we wanted to try two flavors, medium size was our choices. The flavors were excellent.The portions were huge. It's a nice spot. We had a great time and satisfied my craving.
