The ice cream is ssooo creamy. Smooth. Delicious! The staff is so friendly! Kind. Great personality. Joking around. Read the room well!

Came with a friend after hiking nearby. Parking was easy, but we also came on a weekday afternoon. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside was clean and spacious.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The person behind the counter was so friendly and let us sample multiple flavors. I ended up doing a split scoop in a cup. I ordered a cherry flavor and another fruit flavor. Both were delicious but maybe a little too sweet for me. I will say that the portions are giant here. I definitely had a lot of trouble finishing the ice cream. Overall, the ice cream was good, and the portions were better. If I lived closer, I wouldn't hesitate to come back after eating. read more

We visited at an unfortunate time--only one employee was working, and she appeared visibly frustrated. I overheard her explaining to the customers ahead of us that the ice cream had melted because someone had unplugged the appliance. While I understand her frustration, it was disappointing to hear her suggest we all go to Liberty Station instead. After three of us drove separately and struggled to find parking, we weren't about to leave--and neither were the patrons before us. Despite the situation, everyone remained in good spirits, and I wish the staff had matched that energy. Professionalism and good customer service go a long way, especially when customers are still choosing to support your business. We opted for a couple of the pre-packaged ice creams, since those hadn't melted. I was disappointed to learn that milkshakes were only available in chocolate, strawberry, or vanilla. I had hoped to try something more unique, especially since the coffee flavor had received great reviews. I ended up buying a pint of it, but it didn't suit my taste and I gave it to a friend. I also had a scoop of the berry sorbet, which was pretty good, but none of the other flavors I sampled stood out. The name "Craft Creamery" sounded promising, but overall, the experience and the ice cream didn't live up to expectations. Still, I'm glad I gave it a try. read more

My buddies and I came here because the wait for our food at a nearby restaurant was going to be around 40 minutes. One of my friends mentioned there was an ice cream place he had parked next to, so we decided to check it out. It's connected to a coffee shop, but it seemed either closed or possibly run by the same employee. Everyone there, including us, was just there for the ice cream. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place looked new and clean[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . We looked at the well-sized menu and saw a lot of delicious flavors. There was only one family ahead of us, and their transaction was quick. I was able to sample a couple of flavors and ended up choosing the "Cookie Monster." The ice cream was delicious--not too sweet like some other places I've been to. The scoop was a good size and well-priced compared to many other spots. I just wish it wasn't so far from me, otherwise I'd be visiting a lot more often. read more

Perfect afternoon pick me up spot for either ice-cream and/or coffee lovers as the Creamery is connected to Moniker Coffee Co, which provides the coffee/espresso for their creations. If you're a fan of both like me, I highly recommend the Affogato with a scoop of vanilla (you can pick any flavor scoop) Came in on a quiet Sunday afternoon and the service was fantastic. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The comfortable and fun vibe of the decor and outdoor patio makes it a fun place to hang out for a coffee or dessert date.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

We were welcomed and greeted at nine something p.m. in the evening. They were open and I was so happy because I wanted to get some ice cream. Was visiting in town and this place hit the spot. The ice cream was thick and creamy and so soft, almost like a custard Ice cream. I had chocolate, which is my favorite and it didn't disappoint. They have many flavors to choose from and I believe everything is made in house and homemade and you can definitely taste the difference from store-bought or other places. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a cute little spot. Not huge and not too small.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I don't think it was expensive at all. I would definitely visit again. They give you good size scoops, and I like that. read more

The name is rather misleading considering all their ice cream is made by other name brands that you could easily buy at your local grocery or go to their own store (MooTime in Coronado Island).. You're pretty much paying for the service. Got the smores flavor which was pretty mid. It was basically chocolate ice cream with hard-to-come- by graham cracker & marshmallow chunks. Not to mention the chocolate flavor could have been stronger. Service was just ok. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I will say there was plenty of seating, both indoor and outdoors.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] But I'd try somewhere else next time. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Super cute location.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Mixed bag on the staff. The ice cream though is elementary at best. It's overly sweet & lacks creativity. We ordered a flight of 4 flavors, each as unremarkable as the last. Seasonal flavors are kitchy and cartoonish. Here's the thing, your fifth grader will love it. But if you're looking for a grown up scoop with developed flavors and balanced sweetness, this is not the scoop shop for you. read more

Stopped here on the way home from Sunset Cliffs. When we walked in, the place was packed with fellow ice cream lovers. There are a bunch of bar stools with a limited tables and chairs for you to sit and savor your ice cream. Nothing fancy but you're not really here for the atmosphere-- it's the yummy creamy ice cream! There were many ice cream scoopers on hand to handle the rush. Staff is very helpful and friendly. Samples were offered upon request to ensure that proper flavor choices were made. Even though my ice cream order was misheard it was quickly rectified with NO hesitation whatsoever and an apologetic smile. For those dairy-free folks, there are oat milk ice cream options too. And if you thought of the delicious ice cream wasn't enough, you're in for a magical surprise. Be sure to grab the pink spoon -- it changes colors from pink to purple while you eat your ice cream. So FUN!!! One thing I found odd was that there were no napkins. So be prepared to not be messy eating your ice cream. read more

This comes from a place of constructive feedback. We've been coming here since it opened, I realize it has changed ownership with the Moniker connection now. Used to have a wide variety of flavors from different dairies/ice cream providers across the country. That's what made it special. We went in two weeks ago and they only had standard flavors and half of them were sold out. This place has potential given there aren't many scooped ice cream shops in the area and the portions are generous. read more

Very disappointed. They no longer get ice cream from a variety of craft locations in US. Worst of all was the reluctant service from the young lady serving. She was not friendly, seemed to know nothing about the change in format, and worst of all, could care less. read more

A source and distributor for local ice cream that shares space with Moniker Coffee. Get your cold treats and hot drinks all at one place! This small shop accessed through street parking has a few stools and benches for dine in, however it was a bit dark with minimal interior lighting when the sun was setting. There weren't too many traditional seats typically seen in coffee shops but it seemed the espresso machine wasn't the main attraction; the ice cream was! Due to the variety of flavors, it was challenging to decide at first but because of the limited stock and the ability to sample flavors, we were able to make our choices and start devouring our cones. I ended up with the Exhausted Parent which has a coffee base with chocolate chips. The service was exceptional and they were extremely patient with us as we took some time to pick the flavors we wanted to purchase. They also have color changing spoons which the kids find super amazing. In addition to scoops and cones, they also sell the ice cream by the pint. Find a flavor you just absolutely must take home to enjoy later! Overall, The Craft Creamery is a decent option to get a taste of local ice cream without having to make the trek to each one of those locations and is typically quiet enough for you to get in and out quickly without much of a hassle. Street parking can be a bummer but the side streets in the neighborhood usually have space. If you're a local or out of towner, you may want to consider making your way to taste The Craft! read more

Cute little ice cream spot in Point Loma :) They feature a wide variety of different ice creams/gelato/sorbets from ice cream shops around the country. The two staff members were friendly, they were also working the Moniker coffee bar -- I have to try that next time, it was too late for coffee for me. My son got the Strawberry ice cream (Tillamook) and it was so good! We've never had Tillamook before -- super creamy. I got a scoop of the Mango Tangerine sorbet (I forgot where it came from) and it was to die for -- really refreshing. We'll def have to come back and get a flight. I wish I got the Cookie Monster ice cream, hopefully it'll be there next time. read more

What a beautiful concept to open an ice cream & coffee shop all in one. I'm still thinking about this ice cream I had on Sunday. I tried the flight which comes with 4 kids sized scoops (that are equivalent to your avg sized scoop of ice cream). For flavors I got the London fog, pistachio, rich chocolate brownie, and a banana based ice cream with peanut butter & chocolate chips. I forgot the names of the last two! If you like pistachio, you must try their pistachio ice cream. They do not skimp on the pieces of pistachio in this ice cream and I think this may be the best pistachio ice cream I've ever had. I need to grab a whole pint next time I go The banana flavored one with peanut butter swirl was also a favorite! I mean we finished all 4 scoops and left very happy I'd love to go back to try some coffee through Moniker Co :) read more

TL;DR: hidden shop that carries flavors from multiple craft creameries from around the country. Super fun tasting and generous scoops - excellent service! Wanted something sweet after lunch so stopped by Craft Creamery and weren't disappointed. They had 4 different creameries with multiple flavors for each available for any size bowl/cone all the way up to hand-packed pints! Ordered the Fat Elvis (Banana base + chocolate + peanuts/PB) originating from the Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream shop out of Madison, WI. SO GOOD Wish they made and carried some of their own flavors but doesn't seem like that's part of their business plan :/ The servers were very patient with all the samples and gave us very generous scoop sizes I'll be back next time in the area looking for my sugar fix Cheers, Craft Creamery! read more

I was looking for a new spot for ice cream in SD and decided to give this one a try. Pandan: Tasted exactly like pandan and it had shreds of dried coconut it in. I wish it was a bit mo creamery and more bold on the flavor. Mint chip: It tasted like any other mint chip ice cream I could already get at the grocery store. We came on a Monday and most of their flavors were sold out. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is cute and the service was fast.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] However, the ice cream wasn't anything special. read more

The person working in the shop was pleasant and helpful. Ice cream flavors we tried are all awesome and they do split scoops- score! Can't wait to be back.

I was craving ice cream and I wanted to try some in Point Loma. I found The Craft Creamery in the neighborhood. The place is very cute and they have some really nice flavors. The single scoop is $5, double scoop is $8, and there is a four-flavor flight for $12. We chose the 4 flavor flight so that we could try some different types. We had: - Strawberry and cream - Ube - Horchata - Sweet cream All of the ice creams were creamy and delicious. The best flavors in my opinion were strawberry and cream and the horchata, followed by sweet cream then ube. The service was great and the employees were very nice. I can't wait to go back to try more of their flavors! read more

Probably the worst ice cream I've had in a while. I got a split scoop and a vanilla milk shake since the choices were only vanilla or chocolate milk shake. The shake had no flavor whatsoever and the ice cream tasted old and had icicles in them. I got a strawberry and it tasted so bad I couldn't even finish the ice cream. Tasted like freezer burn. Big disappointment since we took the time to go out there for craft ice cream. But I would've been alot happier with thrifty ice cream at this point for half the price. Sad to write this review but I hope they make a change and keep track of their ice cream.. read more

Came here on a whim because my husband and I were doing a date night and needed a quick dessert fix on shelter island. We actually got here the minute the restaurant was closing at 10:00 p.m. but they still took us in! Stuff was super nice and served as even though they were cleaning up back there. Buckeye Blitz (chocolate peanut butter ice cream +peanut butter cookie dough +dark chocolate chips) was so beautifully Rich! I don't usually like chocolate flavored ice cream but this one was actually rich and dark and had those dark chocolate chips in there which just took it to a whole other level! Cookie Monster (blue vanilla ice cream +Oreo cookies +graham crackers +cookie dough pieces) was the perfect pairing on the side. Another customer actually recommended this when I was trying to figure out a good vanilla-y flavor to go with the buckeye and this was perfect. Good vanilla flavor and the crunch of the mix-ins was perfect. read more

Where has this ice cream shop been my whole life!? Simply the best! You want a flavor? Craft has it! Service is SO kind. They encouraged me to sample even more flavors and helped make tailored recommendations. The gentleman working were so personable. Plus the shop is very cute and trendy! When I was young, my cousin ordered ice cream from the East Coast (where we have many extended family members) to be delivered to my family during a tough season. The ice cream was delicious and such a sentimental taste of family roots. It brought such joy to walk into Craft and see the East Coast ice cream brand that I haven't seen since my childhood. I will definitely be visiting again! read more

Delicious coffee creamery in San Diego! My mom and I were tourists from KY, and this delighted us on a slightly warm sunny day. I recommend the ice cream flight, as you get 4 flavor choices. My favorites were, in order from best-to-least: 1) Ube 2) Fat Elvis (peanut butter banana) 3) Mario Berry 4) Exhausted Parent (coffee) The milk used here is high quality and creamy. Prices were fine, and there's good outdoor seating. Highly recommended! read more

The vegan options here were incredible! This shop is adorable. I love how it shares a space with Moniker coffee so you can choose between a caffeine fix or something sweet. Service here was also great. Very friendly and helpful and they give you a HEAVY helping of ice cream. Also, they carry a variety of ice cream brands which was interesting. I got the vegan cinnamon churro on waffle cone and it was heavenly. Not too heavy or sweet and had nice little chunks of what tasted like snickerdoodle. We sat outside to eat on a lovely sunny day and it was just perfect! Highly recommend this place if you are in the Sunset Cliffs/OB area. Definitely a place to stop by after you go to the beach. I will definitely be coming back here. read more

I don't understand the high rating for this place! Maybe they have really great coffee?! But we went there for the ice cream. It is the worst ice cream I have ever had. I agree with all the one star reviews. Very limited flavor choices and all the flavors tasted about the same. If you close your eyes, you would not know what ice cream you're eating, ice cream had good texture but no flavors. We ordered 5 different flavors and all we tasted was cold in our mouths with no distinct flavor differences. Definitely not worth the calories or carb intake. I didn't even finish the ice cream and threw most away. read more
