    Lots of air in the ice cream
    Tasha H.

    I stopped by this place on a whim after seeing their creative flavors on a sign board outside. They have super cool Asian inspired flavors like coffee and corn, Thai tea Boba, etc and I was super excited to try it. They do allow samples, which is really nice, but the smallest size is a single scoop and you can only get one flavor, so I tried the coffee corn. The flavor was good and I could definitely taste the coffee and the corn, but the texture of the ice cream was definitely not the best. It had a slightly sandy texture and you could tell there was a ton of air churned into it so you don't get a super smooth mouthfeel.

    I LOVE this place!!! It's right next to Trader Joe's on MLK, and I cannot help but to stop and get a scoop every time I'm grocery shopping. They have set flavors (which are delicious), but I love trying their monthly specials! All their flavors are so creative and have an Asian twist to them. They always hit the spot, no matter what you're craving. The owners are so sweet too! I have such a good time every time I go. It's definitely my to-go ice cream spot in Berkeley!

    This cute little creamery had a great selection of unique flavors you won't find at another ice cream place. You can sample up to 3 flavors. I had miso peanut butter brownie and black sesame cookies and cream in a cup. There are 3 small tables inside for seating as well as outside seating. It's lovely how they have monthly flavors to keep your ice cream excursions exciting / never boring! Definitely coming back to try more!

    We loved our visit to melt me creamery. I had seen them, but it was their winter menu and I really wanted to try the hot chocolate, but that wasn't available. Although the gal told me starting in November they have their winter menu nevertheless we ended up having the Thai tea, Ube, hazelnut toffee, and strawberry Matcha. Their ice cream creams are so creamy and delicious. The people that work there are so nice! It had a very hip ambience. We were lucky. We went in an off time so there wasn't a line. I highly recommend it.

    This is one of my new favorite ice cream shops. They have a lot of creative flavors, including many inspired by Asian-food, and some vegan/gluten free options too. The ice creams are smooth, have an intense likening to the intended flavor, and are a perfect level of sweetness. They allow samples, and the owner is nice. Definitely an ideal place for a sweet treat :)

    We decided to stop by for dessert after dinner and came across Melt Me Creamery. We went with the fruit freeze and chose strawberry and mango ice with mango sticky rice ice cream. They really packed the cup, and I thought it was very well priced. The interior is cute but a bit small, and there is not much seating inside. The staff were very friendly, and overall I had a great experience. Everything tasted great, and I would definitely recommend this place!

    My new favorite ice cream spot-- I would go here everyday if I lived next door. Everything is in-house made! All flavors seem so unique. I'd get a scoop of everything if I could. Luckily they do have an ice cream flight option if you can't decide, which will most likely happen because they're all so delicious!! Can't wait to go back. They have seasonal rotating flavors too, love that!

    What a wonderful creamy experience! I love the inspiration it takes to start up a creamery with Asian, tropical flavors and do some unique stuff, like offer fruit freezes. The quality of the cream is high, and the only thing you might concern yourself with is the paucity of flavor options. However, that's what makes it better! Admit it, Baskin can't do all 31 flavors equal justice. Lastly, go check out the hot chocolate available until the end of the month. That s'more is actually s'good. Flight of 4 scoops $10

    December special: Biscoff Hojicha

    Saw these cute hot chocolates all over tiktok and I had to try them!!! Parking is a bit difficult; we parked about a block or so away. When we got to the creamery, there was already a crowd of people waiting outside; some enjoying their hot chocolates and ice cream, and some waiting in line to order. Expect a 30min wait for hot chocolates, due to high demand! The store is also very tiny. Limited seating inside and outside. I grabbed a Hojicha Biscoff cone while we waited for our hot chocolates. They have such unique ice cream flavors and a majority are Asian inspired, like mango sticky rice and Strawberry Matcha. The Hojicha Biscoff tasted very "toasty" and not too sweet! The hot chocolates were yummy and I love the taste of the toasted marshmallow rim and whipped cream topping!!! Their other hot chocolate flavors, matcha white chocolate and Hojicha white chocolate, also sounded really good! Sadly, they were all sold out that day. Friendly staff; please be patient and kind, as they are getting a lot of attention thru tiktok and wait times are longer than usual. Will def come back to try their other ice flavors!

    Saw this went viral on tiktok for its S'mores Hot Chocolate and decided to check it out. The line is definitely worth it! It took me about 20min to get through the line and get my order. It's a small ice cream shop with very limited stools inside and outside. While we waited for the main event we tried a scoop of their Campfire S'mores ice cream and Pinkberry ice cream which were both very good! The Pinkberry was very refreshing. The Campfire S'mores wasn't too sweet but it was rich. They had many unique flavors like mango sticky rice, Thai tea and brown sugar mochi, ube malted crunch that I need to return to try. The S'mores Hot Chocolate was such a warm treat for a cold day. The hot chocolate was rich and hot but the toasted marshmallow foam and fluffy thick whipped cream balanced out the rich chocolate. It was the perfect combination! They had other versions of it too.

    Every year during the week of Thanksgiving, we embark on a tradition: searching the East Bay for its best ice cream. After five years and more than half a dozen shops, we finally found a new favorite, Melt Me Creamery. We loved it so much that we visited three times in one week and even brought three pints to Thanksgiving dinner. Each visit came with warm smiles, generous samples, and genuinely welcoming service. This small, family-owned shop opened in July 2025, and the two owners couldn't be kinder. They shared a bit about the shop's story with us, adding a personal touch that made the experience even better. The space is bright, clean, and inviting, with soft music in the background. There's outdoor seating as well, though we enjoyed staying inside. We tried quite a few flavors, but several truly stood out: · Pinkberry - Bold, rich strawberry flavor, perfectly creamy, not too sweet, made with a secret recipe that keeps the fruit flavor intense but not icy. · Matcha Strawberry - A lovely balance of the earthiness of matcha paired with a ribbon of strawberry jam, neither overpowering the other. · Jasmine Passionfruit - Lightly floral jasmine tea ice cream brightened by a swirl of tangy passionfruit. Melt Me also rotates four seasonal flavors every month. These were the flavors for November: · Hazelnut Coffee Toffee - A powerful coffee base with crispy hazelnut and toffee specks. · Avocado Coconut - Light, less sweet, and beautifully textured with toasted coconut flakes. · Yuzu Honey Sorbet - Bright, refreshing · Oolong Tea Pineapple - Unique take on the Taiwanese delicacy (Pineapple cake) If you're in the area, we highly recommend giving Melt Me Creamery a try. It's a place we're thrilled to have found. This review was written with the help of my nieces, EML (age 12) and CML (age 9).

    Easy to read options

    We stopped by after eating KBBQ at Don Blanc, and the ice cream here truly hit the spot. Melt Me Creamery was exactly what I needed to satisfy my ice cream cravings. I already want to go back again. The reviews don't lie; the hype is well deserved. When we arrived, the place immediately had a laid-back, cheerful energy...lively enough to feel fun, but not crowded at all. What I ordered: Flight of Ice Cream = 4 scoops ($8.25 including tip) WHAT A STEAL for artisanal flavored ice cream. Flavors picked (I loved all of it): Jasmine Passionfruit Ube Crunch Strawberry Matcha Mango Sticky Rice Tip: Sprinkles are free! ICE CREAM: 10/10 The ice cream was phenomenal. Each flavor tasted exactly how it was described. The ice cream is rich but not heavy, and with flavors that feel inventive and thoughtful. I could tell they put a lot of care into balancing flavor and texture by not being overly sweet, creamy, but light. It genuinely felt like one of the best artisanal ice creams I've had in a long time. SERVICE: 10/10 The staff were super friendly and welcoming, and didn't make me feel rushed. Ordering was smooth, efficient, and pleasant from start to finish. AMBIANCE: 9/10 Melt Me has a fun, cheerful vibe, bright and colorful inside with pink and white decor, and enough seating for a relaxed hangout (though it's not a big lounge area). It felt comfy and casual. The only reason it's not a perfect 10/10 is that the space is a bit cozy, but that actually works in its favor if you enjoy low-key, friendly ice-cream-shop energy. There's also outdoor seating, which is a nice bonus. I really appreciated how simple and easy-to-read the menu was. I also loved that there wasn't an overwhelming number of flavors, just a thoughtful selection. The options were unique, yet they still offered classic choices like Vanilla. Overall, I came craving something indulgent and a little different, and Melt Me delivered. If you enjoy inventive flavors, care about quality, and want a chill spot to enjoy a scoop (or two), this place is worth checking out. I'll definitely be back. I honestly can't wait to be back LOL.

    Hot chocolate
    Holly S.

    Came for the viral hit chocolate and stayed for delicious ice-cream flavors. Melt Me is the kind of spot that reminds you why Berkeley's dessert scene is so fun. Prices are refreshingly reasonable for the quality, especially if you go for a multi-scoop flight and sample some of their creative flavors. The space is small but colorful and lively, perfect for a quick post-dinner treat or sunny afternoon stop. Service was genuinely warm, with staff happy to offer samples and walk us through the menu. Pro tip: come curious and try something you normally wouldn't because you'll probably end up loving it.

Without sampling the Meyer Lemon bc the worker recommended this, I just chose it. The Meyer Lemon was refreshing & had a creamy texture. It was perfect with the fresh waffle cone. I'm ready to try more flavors the next time I stop by.

The only issue is there's no clear menu posted online, so we walked in completely blind. Their website shows a long list of flavors but not what they actually have that day, so it felt like a guessing game. The line moved really slow because there was only one employee handling everything. She was taking orders, giving samples, answering questions, and ringing people up all at once. She was super friendly and doing her best, but it felt like a lot for one person during a rush and the shop could definitely use more help. The space is really small and tight so it was hard to even see the flavors until we got close to the front. When we finally got up there, a lot of the tubs were already empty which was confusing since most ice cream shops restock. Some flavors I wanted weren't available anymore, and if they're out it would make more sense to just remove them from display. The dirty containers didn't make sense to display. I sampled the jasmine green tea and knew right away I wanted it. It was creamy with a smooth tea flavor that wasn't overpowering. I got a small with half jasmine green tea and half avocado. The avocado was surprisingly really good, super creamy and tasted like a fresh avocado smoothie. Both flavors weren't overly sweet which I liked. My husband wanted cookies and cream but it was sold out so he got chocolate chip instead, which was solid and creamy with good texture. Overall the ice cream itself was good, not the best I've had but definitely not bad. I like that the flavors lean more natural and not overly sweet. I could see myself coming back if I'm in the area, but the experience would be a lot better with faster service and more consistency with what's actually available.
