After a long day on Coronado Beach we wanted some refreshing ice cream and this place was delicious. They had a lot of flavors to choose from, my favorites were the Bananna Nutella and the Peanut Butter. Those two together were a great pair! My daughter really liked the birthday cake because it had sprinkles and my husband enjoyed their monthly special, the Slam Diego. Everyone was very kind and helpful, and it was a fun theme. read more

I love the flight option! We ordered peanut butter, mango, coffee, cherry vanilla, pomegranate chip, and butter pecan. My favorites were the cherry vanilla and pomegranate chip. The butter pecan I couldn't really taste the flavor. We also got their ice cream taco which you can grab from their fridge section. The shell is soft because it's been sitting, probably wouldn't get that again but it's a cute idea. The inside is small and customers loop in a line. There's some seating outdoors and along the side of the building. A good ice cream spot. read more

FIRST TIME LETS GO!! When in Rome is the phrase, in this case when in Del Mar! MooTime Creamery is one of those spots that if you have guest from out of town and want to show them a poppin spot with so many ice cream selections you won't be able to breathe, then you bring them here. It's the oh yeah while we are here in Del Mar I know this cool spot for ice cream! (Elvis is there) Me and my wife are not big fans of ice cream but the flavor choices they have make it a place were there is a flavor for anyone!

CREAMY DELICIOUSNESS (4.5 stars) - ICE CREAM: good - CONE: no drippy butt - PRICE: affordable - AMBIANCE: grab and go (sit outside) The better of the batch of ice cream shops on Coronado. Very popular, lots of flavors, good portion to price, and service is quick! NUTELLA BANANA (~$5) - "kiddie moo" scoop on a small waffle cone. Their serving size for that price makes the visit worth it. I'm so glad I chose this flavor on the fly, it was everything I was craving for. Nice blend of Nutella and Banana flavor with harden Nutella chunks for texture that melt in your palate. The dome of my ice cream was a bit excessive but it was manageable before some dripping from the side action occurred. No hole at the bottom of the cone so no drippy butt action. The cone was average, not too thick kind of thin but not brittle. HIGHLY RECOMMEND JABA APPROVED. Until the next review... read more

Went to MooTime which I've heard about for years. It is New Years Day so a busy day in Coronado. The place was busy. There was only one employee working when we were there. He was absolutely great. He had a great attitude and kept the line moving. We ordered a shake(lots of ice cream in that thing), two small bowls - the scoops were generous, and two sundaes. The one pictured is the chocolate peanut butter sundae. This was the large size for $11.50. Two of us shared it and we had a bit left over. Overall, great ice cream, great service, places to sit. It was a fun place with a nice vibe. We took a photo w Elvis and the cow. I highly recommend. I'll be back. read more

Pretty sure they dumped a cup of salt in both the caramel and hot fudge. Basically inedible. Additionally, if you get a 3 scoop ice cream in a cup, they'll hand it to you completely overflowing with fudge and melted ice cream running down the sides of the cup and all over your hands. You'd think they would just get bigger cups but I guess they'd rather make a mess all over the floor and sidewalk outside. read more

Walked by this place around dinner time and it was packed. There was a line out the door. We came back the following day during lunch and were able to walk in and really experience what they had to offer without the crowd. There are lots of flavors. We ended up choosing the Cookie Monster, brownie batter, and cheesecake. I was a little skeptical with the blue ice cream, but that didn't deter from the flavors for vanilla ice cream. I'm happy I was able to combine Oreo and cookie dough into one scoop! They offered us a waffle cone because they are known as "home of the free waffle cone" the cones were just made! So fresh and warm. Loved the old time feel the place offered. read more

They have tons of flavor options but I especially loved the coffee (not super sweet) and the brownie batter (very chocolatey with that brownie batter texture).

Normally we love coming to Moo Time on Coronado Island. We stopped by today (6/9) at about 11:25 am- they had a sign with marker that said opening at 11:30. We figured we'd wait the 5 mins even though their posted hours say 11am, a young woman came out with a milk shake and took a picture, so we thought they were open. When we tried to go in they said they were still closed and would be for another 15 minutes. Honestly, super disappointing and you've lost a customer. Maybe not a big deal but it would have been 4 orders from our family right away but now I don't think we'll be making MooTime a stop on future visits. read more

This classic ice cream shoppe is definitely a sweet treat! They have so many fun ice cream flavors and options, include ice cream sandwiches, tacos, sundaes and milkshakes. The flavors are rich and creamy. We got the Cookie Monster which wasn't overwhelmingly sweet or falsely dyed (like some other stores cookie monsters). The mini moo is only one scoop but a hefty scoop and more than enough for the average ice cream consumer, in my opinion! There were also had mini bite size donuts for free that were equally delicious. read more

the island split was super delicious and they let you sub out the ice creams listed on the menu for different ones free of charge. I would recommend going with one of the sundaes, especially the island split, and just sharing it as the single scoop pricing is a little crazy, about 6 dollars for one scoop, whereas the sundaes are quite large and definitely big enough to share and only about 14 dollars. the out door tables were very dirty though and covered in ice cream so we sat at the bench out front instead. not a huge deal as its an ice cream place so it sort of comes with the territory and it seemed like maybe they were a little short staffed when we visited. I do think it would be nice if they cleaned the tables a little more often though as it would have been nice to sit at a table. all in all though I wouldn't say its definitely recommended stopping by here for a sundae when in coronado read more

We came here twice during our Fourth of July stay. We tried acai bowls and ice cream. The mango and berry acai bowls are delicious and packed with goodness. The ice cream is typical ice cream - nothing I would specifically drive out and wait in line for. On Fourth of July it was packed. There was a line of customers, especially with the throngs of people waiting outside for fireworks. The owner stepped in to help, and he was very attentive. The day before, when it was considerably much less busy, there were two women working the store near closing time, and they were very friendly. Would come back if I'm in the area. But I would not purposely come out here just for this. There is ice cream, acai bowls, yogurt a plenty in SD.

I'm from New Orleans and have yet to find a true snowball spot outside of there, so I wasn't about to turn around. The line looked intimidating at first, stretching to the door, but it actually moved pretty quickly. It took about 10 minutes to order and get my food, which was a pleasant surprise. I ordered the small passionfruit shaved ice stuffed with avocado pistachio ice cream and topped with condensed milk. The ice cream alone deserves its own moment. It was easily some of the best I've had. Rich, creamy, and genuinely impressive. The shaved ice, though, didn't land the same way for me. The menu leans heavily into fruit flavors, which just don't pair that well with something like pistachio or chocolate-based ice cream. The passionfruit itself was pretty tart, which might work on its own, but it clashed with the creaminess of the ice cream. I found myself wishing they had options like coconut, amaretto, or chocolate syrups to balance things out better. Also, coming from New Orleans, I'm used to condensed milk being layered throughout, not just on top. It makes a difference in every bite. And honestly, the price here is noticeably higher for something that didn't quite hit the same. I'd come back for the ice cream without hesitation. As for the shaved ice, it just didn't quite deliver that nostalgic snowball experience I was hoping for. The service was phenomenal though. And it was a lively crowd.

Cali Cream

I have my favorite ice cream of all time, and for the first time ever, I genuinely thought I had a…read morecontender to replace it. Cali Cream was a great experience when visiting San Diego. Set in the heart of the Gaslight District and close to Petco Park, the house-made flavors are not only unique from your standard flavors but full of the ingredients that the flavor is named after. For me, it was Graham Central Station and a Lemon Cookie and Cream that was maybe the best single scoop I've had in a long time. In addition to flavor after flavor of ice cream (get a sampler of four flavors if you can't choose), they also have an assortment of cookies, treats, and Rice Krispy treats. There is literally something for everyone if you need a sweet treat on a hot day or after a downtown meal. At the end of the day, I still have my favorite ice cream establishment, but Cali Cream has solidified itself as my second favorite, which is still saying something!

I stumbled upon this place while walking by, and I'm so glad I did! The employee told me it's a…read morefamily-owned shop that makes all of their ice cream in-house. There were so many flavors on the menu that I wanted to try them all, but I ended up going with the Butterscotch Toffee. It's so rare to find butterscotch or toffee flavored ice cream - this one combined both of them! I was sold the second I saw it on the menu. The best part? It had little crunchy toffee pieces mixed in, which gave it the perfect texture. So creamy, flavorful, and delicious. I'll definitely be back to try more flavors!

The staff is always kind and professional, and the food is always fantastic! On my most recent visit, I ordered their Gramps' Breakfast Croissant Sandwich.

The croissant was crispy and delicious and, of course, you can never go wrong with a sandwich that has bacon, eggs, and cheese inside of it. This place is a "must go," so add it to your list if you're in Coronado!

I upgraded to housemade almond milk (+$1). Total was over $11, more than I typically pay for matcha (~$8). The matcha came out within 10 minutes, but it wasn't great, as far as matcha goes. It's supposedly made with ceremonial grade matcha, but I couldn't taste it in the drink. The strawberry syrup was bland. The drink was somewhat "healthy", but not a good-tasting matcha beverage, and a bit too expensive for the quality you get. I'd liken it to watered down strawberry almond milk.

I ordered one of their beers on tap: Orange Avenue Wheat Ale brewed with orange and honey 5.2%. This is one of their iconic popular beers and an award-winning brew. Stays as a classic in their books. I highly recommend this beer if you are indecisive of what to order from. 5/5 To eat I decided to order an appetizer: Islander Ahi Poke (Ahi tuna in a poke marinade with cucumber & avocado over seaweed slaw. Finished with wasabi aioli, sesame seeds & micro greens) Served with wonton crisps Very unique way to enjoy poke sitting over seaweed slaw. But it is refreshing and flavorful overall. Paired up well with my Orange Avenue Beer. This location offers indoor seating as well as some outdoor seating. A bar with TV displays that include fans watching the Padres play on the screen. Atmosphere was very lively and groups were there to hang out and have a good time.
