I'm not usually a sweets or ice cream person but their rainbow (small size) ice cream was a good value for pricing and variety of taste. It had I think surprising nut and cherry pieces too . Good service and easy parking. If you want to try something novel or like ice cream, this is a must try. read more

The ice cream here is honestly really good. The original rainbow cone is definitely the standout despite having five different flavors stacked together, everything blends really well. None of the flavors overpower each other, and it ends up tasting balanced and unique rather than overwhelming. The place itself has a really chill vibe. It's not loud, and the ambience is nice if you just want to relax and enjoy your dessert without the usual busy dessert shop chaos. Service-wise, it's surprisingly not that crowded. It feels like not a lot of people have discovered this spot yet, which is kind of a hidden gem situation. Because of that, the experience is smooth and easy, no long waits. Overall, definitely worth checking out especially for the original rainbow cone. read more

Stopped by after Adventure City and this hit the spot. Portions were generous for the price, definitely worth it if you're coming with kids or just hungry. Got the ice cream and it was creamy, flavorful, and not shy on scoops. Service was quick and easy, and it's a solid spot to cool down after a long day out. Nothing fancy, but it does what it's supposed to do. Would come back. read more

The Original Rainbow Cone - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Cypress, California

This location is the first and only location in California as of the date of this review. Very cute little spot. It used to be a boba shop at one point. The inside smells very sweet because they also make fresh mini donuts on site. The Original Rainbow Cone surprised me. Anyone that knows me knows how much I'm not a fan of orange flavored desserts. But in this mixture, it's works very well and I actually enjoyed it. The multiple flavors in one seems like a weird concept but for me the flavors really worked well together. We love this place. We even got our last birthday cake here. Order must be placed 48 hours in advanced. We got the cookies & cream cake and it was enjoyed by both adults and kids. read more

What a fun, lively place for some dessert. They are know for their rainbow colored layers of ice cream that are stacked onto a cone. I love that the cones have a drip collector so your hands don't get sticky - smart idea! You can also choose to enjoy your ice cream in a cup or waffle cone. They have some pretty cool flavors and you can even sample them before you commit. They also have an array of mini donuts with toppings too. You can grab an ice cream cake to take home. Service was amazing! Sarah was bright, cheerful and super helpful. She made the experience special. Yum - come get some ice cream and sit inside or outside under umbrellas. read more

The original rainbow cone is a must! We were in the area for some dinner and noticed rainbow cones bright inviting decor and knew this would be a post dinner treat. When you walk in you're immediately greeted by friendly staff and bright colors, it's impossible to not be in awe by the original rainbow cones vibe. With custom creations like the cosmic birthday cake , chocolate obsession, Superman dream and freshly made mini donuts there's something for everyone. Since this was my first time I had to go with the original rainbow cone, organza cream, pistachio, strawberry, chocolate and palmer house. These flavors sound very as a combo and looks even more whimsical but once you get it and give it a try , it was almost perfect how the flavors compliment each other for layers of a unique mix. I thought it gave a very similar vibe of spumoni ice cream. I really enjoyed the uniqueness and the variety the original cone offers, we will def be back to try more menu items! read more

Rainbow ice cream has become my go to ice cream spot ever since it open in Cypress! It's in a quaint little plaza next to Cypress HS, surrounded by other food businesses. The location is convenient to hit up after dinner (or any time of the day)! The workers are always so friendly and patient. They get the scoops out quick after ordering. You can also sample flavors so if you're unsure about what you want, definitely try the Superman - it's fruity and creamy at the same time, which has become my all time favorite! read more

She was kind and had a good personality. read more

I never got hit with such a rush of nostalgia as this place has given me. The interior design really makes me feel like I'm in a good ole ice cream parlor with the friendliest staff you can ask for. But the main star is truly the Rainbow cone. If you are allergic to ice cream or dairy this isn't for you. The amount of incredible flavors and the presentation even down to how careful the staff is when they are creating your masterpiece. It makes me want to crave it every day if I could! I highly recommend this place. read more

A solid new ice cream spot in Cypress. Came here after dinner close by to see the ice cream scooping method in person. Their layers of ice cream of 5 different flavors is definitely unique. The price was great for what you get. Is the ice cream the best you can get? No, but its still tasty and worth a go once to see if you'll like it. Service was fantastic read more

The Original Rainbow Cone completely stole my heart! It was our first time trying it after having dinner, the place is very colorful & cute! We were kindly greeted by staff, Megan at the counter helped us navigate the options they offered for ice cream and even mini donuts! We were able to try a few flavors prior to making a final decision, they have small and large portions. You get to pick up to 5 flavors! I thought that was awesome, you get a little bit of everything. They also have outdoor seating to enjoy your desert. We look forward to coming back for more delicious ice cream. read more

First time here but I've known about this place and since we came to Kura next door, it was a perfect time to try it. Nothing special about the ice cream flavors they offer. It reminds me a lot of Thrifty ice cream except the scoops are in slices. An interesting way to serve ice cream. Glad I tried it, but not sure when I'd come back. read more

Ok the different colors aren't the only great things with rainbow cone ice cream. The flavor is really really good. I had the birthday cake and huckleberry and the special. I stacked it on a cone like the rainbow and it was totally worth the drive. Good consistency, no icy flavor, very creamy and tasty. read more

Came in to try this spot on a Tuesday evening after being recommended by a friend (also it was BOGO, which is hard to beat -- def check their Instagram before you plan your visit to see what's up). It may have just been because of the special but this place was busy! The line went quickly and service was really sweet, but there was a wait for the scoops to be handed out. We tried their original rainbow cone and their cosmic birthday sliced cones, both in their junior size. If you order regular size, come prepared because they're enormous. Original Rainbow - 5 flavors stacked to create a precarious mountain of ice cream. From the bottom to the top, it was chocolate, strawberry, "palmer house" (which is like cherry + walnuts set in a vanilla-y base), pistachio, and orange sherbet on top. All the flavors play an important role in the composition of this stack, and kinda all balance each other out. It was kinda like spumoni but like if Scooby Doo was raiding the freezer trying to make it. Cosmic Birthday - Layers of their "superman" ice cream in-between birthday cake ice cream. The best way I can think to describe it was like having a slice of funfetti cake in one hand and a bomb pop in another, and you're alternating bites. It was mellow, super sweet, ambiguously fruity, and a hit with my 4 year old (also, way too big for my 4 year old). read more

I love rainbow cone! I didn't even know how much I missed it from Chicago until this place opened. Layers of rainbow flavors served by some of the most cheerful people, in one of the most cheerful environments! Indoor and outdoor seating offered. You can even watch the process as they scoop ice cream and flip mini donuts. Yeap, they also offer mini donuts and cakes (whole and slices)! If you love ice cream, there's no discussion needed to be had. You gotta try The Original Rainbow Cone. read more

Ok... I was very excited to try this place and so happy we finally did! We have actually been back a few times because we love it so much! The service is great. The ladies that have helped us are so helpful and nice. The place is clean with cute decorations. I'm very intrigued to try their cakes one day because the display case looks divine! My children love the restroom too btw haha it's fancy according to them. So the ice creams are great! My kids love the Superman, the mango, the chocolate obsession and I agree with them! Except I can't say that the ice cream is the best because of their donuts!!!!!! We loveeeee their donuts! We always get two ice cream Cones and a dozen cinnamon sugar donuts and that's about $20+ for us. The donuts are..... mmmmm soooo good!!! It's made to order and amazing. Please don't forget to have their donuts also! Love this place read more

I went to a food fest and saw their booth. They were giving out donuts and ice cream. My girlfriend tried the mini donuts and I had the ice cream. I've been HOOKED ever since They handed me a little menu giving their whole backstory and the list of things they offer. I had to go in and visit their ice cream shop because I saw they serve my FAVORITE childhood flavor, Superman ice cream. When I pulled up I noticed there was a lot of parking. It's in a private parking lot but they share it with a couple other places. The shop is cute. It has their story everywhere and old photos, Barbie pink stools to sit on (also have I think one or two tables. The tables were limited vs the stools lined up against the wall with a counter) they also have a big ice cream statue Caroline was absolutely so sweet. She did a great job at asking every customer that came in if it was their first time, if they had any questions, if they want a sample. I told her it was my first time here and she asked how I found out about the place. So Caroline was on point! 10/10 They don't just have scoops of ice cream, no no no, they offer slices of ice cream cake, floats, decked out sundaes and more (again, the mini donuts, too! Which, you can add to your ice cream) they even have custom ice cream cookie sandwiches. You could even get them in a pack to take home I ended up ordering my ice cream and then getting a slice of their orange vanilla cake. It was delicious I love the combo of orange and vanilla. Plus the cake part wasn't dry. With some ice cream cakes it can be very dry Also bonus points for The bathroom being clean The ambiance - it was very colorful They had cute merch for sale The place was extremely clean Good variety of flavors And for customer service Caroline was amazing! There was a guy working here as well getting the ice cream ready. I believe his name was Justin? (I am so sorry if I'm wrong) I will 10000000000000000 percent be back read more

Sometimes you just want or even NEED ice cream and that is just what happened while we were traveling from San Diego to Los Angeles. We had driven a bit of the coastal highway and my older daughter said "there's this place that looks really interesting and I've been wanting to try it". That is how we ended up at the Original Rainbow Cone. Now, I am not one for gimmicky ice creams. In fact, the more basic and old school the joint is when it comes to ice cream, the happier I am. Full cream, slow churned, made with love and real fresh ingredients. This is definitely something Rainbow cone does properly, and they do have well made ice cream. However, I opted for a chocolate milkshake, as I knew the legit ice cream would make a great treat, especially after my earlier burger from Jack in the Box. One thing I could agree on with my wife was that the actual original rainbow cone itself was delicious. The layering of different colorful flavors actually work together perfectly. The other layered choices didn't really seem all that enticing and are obviously geared at the theme they have going of the stacked slabs of different flavors of ice cream. This feeds into the gimmick, which really isn't for me, but again, the quality is there so it was still a tasty experience in my book. The welcoming staff was also a highlight as none of us had any experience in what the cones were or what we wanted to order or even where to start. They were helpful, fun, and even played along with my patented ridiculousness and even led us to the recommendation to try the original rainbow that I ended up enjoying thoroughly. I am under the impression that this is a small chain, but definitely not nationwide. If I remember correctly, it began in Chicago and has expanded to many locations, and the vibe is definitely a big part of that. If you see one nearby definitely give it a shot! Especially that chocolate milkshake! read more

The Original Rainbow Cone - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Cypress, California

honestly, I would rate this a 1 out of 5 because service is very important to me and dictates how I can enjoy an ice cream. I went there today with my family and such terrible service, I had a gift card and was completely unknown of the fact that the gift card expired when I had just received this as a gift. And the manager was completely disrespectful and not helpful whatsoever. if an employee was disrespectful that would be not as surprising but a manger? Completely unprofessional and there was no need for unhelpfulness has businesses lost their meaning of customer service? apparently so, the ice cream was enjoyable quite the least but not worth going through all that trouble, read more

Interesting to say the least. We got the original rainbow come and I learned that I'm not a fan of all the flavors. Especially the cherry almond one. I should've just got a regular scoop of a flavor. Love that it comes with a cone holder that also helps with the ice cream when it drips. The donuts were surprisingly good. Who would've thought?! They were soft, fluffy, and moist. IT was busy when we first walked in but it slowed down. Don't know why it took so long for one original rainbow cone. The girl also didn't give as much as our friends got from another worker. It gets crowded. Only 1 table as soon as you walk in. There are a couple seats outside. read more

This ice cream & donut shop is located in a strip mall known as Cypress Village. They have a variety of ice cream flavors which you can get in a cup or cone, as well as a variety of specialty sundaes. The young woman who helped me at the counter was delightfully friendly and helped me figure out what to get. I decided to get two flavors in a cup - Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and Big Muddy (dark chocolate with small blobs of caramel throughout). I asked for some gooey caramel topping too. There are outdoor tables to sit at as well as some indoor seating and a counter. I sat at the counter and enjoyed the large scoops. The chocolate chip cookie dough was okay. I've definitely had better. But the Big Muddy was excellent - I really liked the dark chocolate flavor and the sweet caramel surprises in every bite. They also sell mini donuts here. I probably wouldn't have gotten any but Les S. mentions in his review that he thought the donuts were better than the ice cream. I agree completely! They have several flavor options and make them to order. I decided to get "classic glazed" - little plain donuts with a slightly sweet glaze poured over them. They sell them in boxes of half a dozen (which to them means 7) and they were so fresh and delicous. I ate one donut while halfway through my ice cream and immediately pushed my ice cream aside to wolf down those donuts! For me to push ice cream aside for anything is unheard of...that's how good their donuts are. This is a fun and delectable dessert spot with some great ice cream and even yummier mini donuts. read more

This is a traditional ice cream place from Chicago. Its signature item is its Rainbow Cone which has five sliced ice cream flavors stacked on top of one another (chocolate, strawberry, Palmer House, pistachio, orange sherbet). Most of its ice cream flavors are pretty standard, but decent to good. What I mainly come here is for its freshly made mini donuts. When I say fresh, they are made to order, not made the same day or within the last hour. You will need to wait about 10 to 15 minutes for the staff to make donuts, but they are totally worth it. Just having them fresh makes such a big difference. I even ate some the day after and they still tasted pretty fresh. This location has switched hands several times. I hope this place can last because my family and I love its freshly made donuts. read more

You're welcomed with the sweet buttery smell of fresh waffle cone as you enter and a buffet of ice cream flavors to select. I was overjoyed with all the choices that I settled on my usual mint chocolate chip and huckleberry. They were creamy and delicious. I think next time I will get their infamous layers of ice cream next time which has so many different varieties that you'll just have to stop reading the reviews and just come and check it out for yourself. Can't go wrong with this place, seriously. Service is excellent and they helpful with all the different services they offer from fundraising opportunities to party ice cream cakes to catered services for your next event. Hot pink stools at the bar top counter or small seats inside available or outdoor seating available at the benches with umbrella overhead. Great for all size gatherings. The restroom is pretty fancy too. Won't ruin it. Come check it out yourself. read more

All together I paid like $11 for both the mini-donuts and the ice cream which is a really great price. They also sell slices of ice cream cake in many different flavor combinations! The drawback about ice cream cake is you have to buy an entire cake to try it, but here, you can try all the different types of ice cream cake since they sell it by the slice for like $5.99! On top of that, they sell ice cream sandwiches! It's not just ice cream scoops, it's mini-donuts, sundaes, ice cream cake slices, ice cream cake and ice cream sandwiches! Since it was my first time visiting I went with the 5 flavor cone. I was able to sample the flavors which was really awesome. I went with the huckleberry, Palmer house, Mango sorbet, peanut butter swirl and big muddy. The one flavor I didn't try ahead of time was huckleberry and I was indifferent to it, but my favorite flavor was definitely the peanut butter swirl. I like peanut butter but it's not my favorite in ice cream but their peanut butter swirl is delicious and smooth. Definitely would get that again next time and try more flavors. I love that the cone came with an ice cream cone sleeve so none of the ice cream melted onto your hand. I decided to also get a half dozen mini-donuts since it was my first time. I ate a few but saved them for later. Since they were made fresh, they tasted amazing and melt in your mouth. I'd say it's like those mini donuts you get in a pack at the gas station, but super fresh and literally melt in your mouth when it's freshly made and hot. I ate the rest of them the next day with coffee and it still tasted fresh and soft. The shop itself is a girly dream! I love the decor, the pink stools and counter, the large ice cream cone in the window and the color scheme. Once you walk in it's like you're in ice cream heaven. The service is great here and the lady that helped was very friendly, answered all of my questions and got me all the ice cream samples. To me, it's a great price point, they have a variety of ice cream and ice cream products to choose from and it's just a happy store to visit! read more

Recently opened near Kura! I normally get the ice cream from kura to end the meal but this time decided to give rainbow cone a try. The inside and branding feels really colorful and exciting (perfect for kids) but it also made me have no idea what to expect. I tried the banana split with my brothers and was blown away! It's not just a cute ice cream shop. The ice cream is ACTUALLY really good and creamy (no icey ice cream! Yay!). The banana split was really large! They scooped really big scoops so it's a great thing to share between 3-5 people. You can swap flavors for the banana split if you want. Plenty of outdoor seating. Limited indoor seating. I can't wait to come back and bring my niece! read more

I was excited to try this place as it looked like it had two of my favorite things, ice cream and donuts. This place is in a big plaza with different restaurants and plenty of parking, not crowded at all even on a weekend evening. I got one of the rainbow cones and we got a bunch of the cider mini donuts. The donuts are made fresh to order so it takes like 10 minutes if I remember correctly. I thought it was real cool to have all those flavors in one cone. The ice cream was alright to me, I have had better. The donuts, however, were spectacular. Miniature, warm, chewy yet soft, and delicious, bursting with flavor. I would come back just for these anytime, and would highly recommend you try them out as well. We plan to come back here and you know I am going to give the ice cream another try as well. read more

Newly opened ice cream shop with creative options originating from Chicago. Serving ice cream, mini donuts, sundaes, shakes, ice cream sandwiches, and ice cream cakes. We ordered the original rainbow cone, cosmic birthday, and banana Nutella mini donuts. The original rainbow is so fun with 5 flavors shaved on to one cone- chocolate, strawberry, house, pistachio, and orange. Reminiscent of an upgraded spumoni. The cosmic birthday comes with their superman flavor with birthday cake ice cream. Mini donuts came out piping hot. Service at the counter was friendly and happy to provide flavor samples. However, took some time to receive our order. Some seating inside to enjoy your treats with more seating outdoors. read more

New ice cream shop that took over the boba store. It has cute decor and the smell was amazing from the donuts. We decided on shakes because the counter gal wasn't too knowledgeable about the ice cream when I asked. I loved that they came with donuts on top which were so light and crispy. The shakes were delish as well. I preferred the Nutella banana over the mint chocolate chip. The Nutella banana donuts were so good and unexpected. I do wish they would have allowed for two flavors when ordering a dozen though. read more

We came here because we heard this place was famous in Chicago so had to check it out. First thing you notice as you walk in - the beautiful smell of fried donuts and the colorful decor. Looked like there were a good number of seats to enjoy some ice cream with friends or family (but no super large tables - we were a large group of 7 so some of us had to stand). We tried a couple of things, including a double scoop of huckleberry and cookie dough, and a rainbow quart. The texture of the huckleberry and cookie dough was nice and creamy, and the huckleberry was a pretty interesting flavor. The rainbow flavors (not judging the texture because the quart isn't meant to be eaten right away) honestly didn't blow me away. It's an interesting mix, but the individual flavors themselves aren't necessarily the best you can find here in OC. The chocolate, strawberry, orange, and pistachio... eh. It kinda tasted like grocery store ice cream flavor-wise. But the price was pretty good, and the quart comes with two cones which was nice (extra charge for a waffle cone). Service was super friendly. It's not bad ice cream and not badly priced, and I think it stands alone as a nice place if I were trying it in another city. But honestly, there's just too many spectacular ice cream places here in OC with innovative flavors and that really nail down their basic flavors, so it's hard to say I'd come back here. Though worth coming once for the novelty of trying a renowned shop. read more

I fell in love with the Original Rainbow Cone in Chicago, so when I found out there was a location in California, I had to stop by--and it didn't disappoint! The selection here was a bit different, which made it even more exciting. I went with a junior scoop of the Cosmic Birthday on a sugar cone, and it was both beautiful and delicious. Honestly, just as good as the Chicago location, maybe even better. Can't wait to come back and try the donuts and more flavors. Highly recommend this spot for a fun and tasty dessert! read more

This was my and my friend's first time here, and as avid ice cream connoisseurs, it totally lived up to the hype. We got our own custom flavors in a cake cone and a waffle cone, and it was a fun and delicious experience.

The amount of ice cream we were given for the price is also such a steal! Definitely worth coming back for. read more
