    Strawberry Vanilla Swirl
    Jay S.

    The best value for the price out of any soft serve ice cream spot! Truly it's so simple and delicious, this is a must try if you're in the area or even driving by, the service is always fast, friendly, and the ambiance is very cute and chill (no pin intended).

    FINALLY!!! ive been meaning to go here for 15+ years and I can say it surpassed my HIGH expectations!! the storefront is super cute and made the ordering easy. the inside is spacious but not seating. there's only limited outside seating and limited parking so be prepared. all their flavors are amazing and the amount you get for the price is unbeatable!

    June 2026 I have to admit, I wasn't a fan of their flavors because they tasted very syrup artificial instead of using real fruit puree. The chocolate and vanilla are okay, but if there's a wait, I would skip it. We went on an off day, so there was no line. If I and to wait half an hour, I'd be dissapointed. My friend got their flavored soft seve which I had a sample of and it was way too sugary for me.

    New hot spot alert! This wasn't here during my last visit to Livermore and my friend who still lives there told me about it. We met there for a double date and I was IMPRESSED! They rotate their flavors weekly, they're quick and efficient AND the prices are so reasonable! I spent like 7 dollars on a slushy and medium soft serve. Apparently you can swirl or stack any flavors! I went with strawberry and pineapple and I was in heaven! There is no indoor searing but an okay amount outside. Everyone has to try this wonderful establishment

    I am so happy that Meadowlark is now in Livermore! I frequent the location in Pleasanton since I heard about it and the Livermore location is even more convenient! The building looks like it used to be a bank, with some street parking a and a small parking lot in the back, located in downtown Livermore. The inside still looks sorta empty and unfinished. They are slowly adding some grocery items and merch you can purchase along with your ice cream. My favorite so far has been the orange and vanilla swirl, pretty much taste like an orange creamsicle! They have some seasonal flavors that pop up from time to time. I have tried the eggnog during the holiday season and most recently the white chocolate and coconut and I love the coconut! I wish they would bring that back. Service is always so quick, they hand you your ice creams when when you walk to the back. People here have also been very lovely.

    Seating where drive thru once was.

    Meadowlark Dairy opened in Bank of the West's location nearly a year ago. The entire building and parking has been repurposed without much changes. Difficult to notice signage on drive by. Saw MILK sign initially but it didn't register. The full name is displayed above the main entrance. Some pics posted on inside brick walls. Shelves of merch in the middle of the main room. Dairy products in refrigerators on left side as one enters. No drive thru. No inside dining. Lots of parking in lot. Ample seating at tables in front and at the side where the drive thru at bank once was. Service was fast, quick & courteous by single male associate present. No lines when I entered. Business slow on a semi-hot day. Got a large chocolate & vanilla combo in a cup (4) per his suggestion as it's the best seller. It was ready in minutes at a stand near the front door. Slushies, milkshakes, sodas also available. Vegan pineapple, orange & strawberry other options. Mint, coconut. Cotton candy, raspberry, & peaches & cream pops up sometimes. Meadowlark no longer has their own farms. Contracts milk from local farmers. Licks : ice cream smooth, melts easily. Had no aftertaste. Tastes natural. Not sugary. Great value. 5 stars all around. Definitely repeatable.

    Tried the new Livermore branch. Same yummy ice cream with same great price of $3.50. They offered about 4 basic flavors. No specials of the day. Inside was other grocery items and small sized items. Ample parking in back.

    We have never understood what all the fuss is about. We've tried the Pleasanton location twice and thought we'd give it another try now that they have a location in downtown Livermore. The place was packed. The flavors are basic with seasonal or rotating specials of one soft serve and one milkshake flavor. I wanted a milkshake. Unfortunately, unlike the waffle cone option there was no sign on the menu saying that it was unavailable. I was so disappointed after waiting in line and getting to the cashier who told me they weren't available. I opted not to get anything. My companion was disappointed with the flavor options and settled for a plan cone. Very disappointing. We are in no rush to return for a fourth visit.

    We love stopping by Meadowlark whenever we're in the area! Usually we go to the Pleasanton location, but when we found out they had a new location in Livermore we couldn't resist the allure for soft serve! This location in downtown Livermore looks like it used to be an old bank. The inside is clean and inviting though, with a mini market for snacks and frozens. We got a medium Pineapple + Vanilla swirl for that tart creamy combo! The soft serve is the perfect creamy, silky frozen milk texture, and is so addictive! A medium cone for 4$ gets you a swirly pile of soft serve almost half a foot tall, such amazing value that you really can't find anywhere else these days! All the workers are always very nice and cheerful just like at the Pleasanton location. And inside there is a wall mural of playful Meadowlark Dairy marketing and cows to take a pic of your soft serve with! There's also plentiful tables and seating outside, as well as its own parking lot with ample spaces. Overall, an enjoyable experience and we'll definitely be back!

    First time stopping by at their new Livermore location! I've been a regular at their main location in Pleasanton for a while now but this place is a different vibe! For starters there's no drive thru. You also have a place to sit down outside! The atmosphere is just different but in a good way! The customer service was great and quick as always with the high schoolers they have working. The ice cream and slushies were a 10/10 as well. The price at meadowlark is really the star of the show! 5 items for 17 dollars! You can't beat that, especially these days.

    My wife and I stopped by Meadowlark Dairy for dessert after grabbing dinner nearby. Although all the outdoor seating was occupied when we entered, there was plenty of seating available once we had gotten our order. Between the two of us, we shared a small cup of their orange vanilla swirl. For the price, you really get a lot for your money. I've seen ice cream places elsewhere in the Bay Area charging double for their small size. After my first bite, I was immediately reminded of my childhood of eating grocery store creamsicle bars. The soft serve here was super rich and had the perfect creamy consistency to it. The orange flavor was very pronounced and didn't have an artificial taste to it. The soft serve as a whole wasn't overly sweet either. Overall, I'm really impressed with the soft serve at Meadowlark Dairy. Staff was friendly, service was fast, and the soft serve itself was quite tasty. I would definitely stop by again.

    This ice cream place is so cute. You can buy food and drinks here, not just their ice cream. What's nice is that their fruit flavors are lactose free so my boyfriend can enjoy. He got the strawberry. My son had the rootbeer slushy which is kinda like a rootbeer float. I had the pineapple and vanilla mix, in a cone and cup. It was delicious! There's tables and chairs outside. The building is very unique.

    Very clean, colorful decoration inside the shop. Staff were very friendly. Tried the special on the month, Story Coffee. Very delicious (well, only if you like coffee flavored ice cream) They don't have drive-thru service here at this location. Which is fine but just so you know if you happen to stop by this shop.

When you walk in the first thing you'll notice is how open, bright, and clean this cafe is along with a friendly "ciao, welcome" from the owner. There were so many delicious gelato flavors to choose from but I ultimately went with the Amarena cherry flavor. It was so good and had the same sticky consistency of gelato I had in Italy. Turns out the owner is from Napoli, Italia! Many of the ingredients are from Italy. Their biscotti and lemon flavored were also great. I'll get those next time. In addition to coffee and espressos, they also offer Italian wines and beer. Can't wait to visit again!

The staff member was helpful and nice and let us sampled some flavors before we decided on one. The hazelnut was delicious, but we ended up getting a scoop of the almond. The almond flavor was very present, which we liked. There were also little almond bits. The texture of the gelato itself was creamy and smooth. It did melt really quickly though. Even when we were first handed the cup, it was already melting. That's the only thing I wished was different. This was my first time here so I could only speak from this one experience. Maybe it was just this day. Otherwise, we loved it!

The balance of matcha flavor and guava was 5/5. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm shopping in the area. It was satisfying and makes me crave their matcha!

The inside was very cute and had a very clean look. They had two kiosk on the side if you want to order on your own or you can order with someone helping you. We ordered thru kiosk, so not too much interaction with staff. Drinks did come out fast though! Overall, decent place for drinks.

It was a very hot Saturday and we decided to cool off with some ice cream from Loard's. I have always been a fan since my childhood, butter brickle and peppermint ice cream are my go-to. I had never visited this location before. Walking in, the ambiance wasn't giving me the warm fuzzies like the other well-lit Loard's locations did. It's pretty dim with only one window emitting any light from outside. It still has it's pink and white interior, but it doesn't scream "ice cream shop." One thing that stood out to me was the menu. It appeared they might've updated several of their prices with the edits marked all over it. It just looks tacky, but I understand that making a new sign can be costly. Hopefully in the near future this could be given a nice facelift. We ordered a scoop of ube, a scoop of toasted almond, and a scoop of mint chocolate chip ice cream. Unfortunately you couldn't eat indoors so we stood outside the shop and hurried to eat the ice cream before it melted. Would I come back here again? Maybe, but I prefer the Castro Valley location more as it just gives more of the feels of an actual ice cream shop and it's got a pleasant vibe to it.
