Sweetie : ice cream with honey drizzle Honeymee : ice cream with a honeycomb *but what I usually do is ask for a sweetie with a honeycomb or a honeymee with honey drizzle. My husband has tried the shake too and it's just as good as the ice cream. It's such a simple dessert but sooo good. It may look "plain" but the taste is everything but plain. The ice cream and honey just go PERFECT together! Always a good treat.

The moment you step inside the ice cream shop, you are entering a cozy atmosphere where you find…read moreyourself feeling at home. The place has this classic ice cream shop feel with pastel aesthetics mixed into a modern clean vibe which mixes practicality with style. I LOVE the glass panel decoration and the front decor which are simple details yet convenient decoration. The options have an interesting range in diversity, from ice cream and drinks. Their combinations are so unique, blending trendy flavors like matcha, honey, and many more delicious flavors. My favorite flavor I have tried so far, was the Dalgona Affogato--which I picked because I was thinking of the squid games. The dessert was so smooth but the honey was slightly overbearing. If that is not to your preference, they have other options that can certainly fit to your taste buds. The ice cream is perfectly sweet and an excellent treat in this summer weather. The honey crisps placed on top of the ice were so little, which I wished they had a bit more since it tasted so good with the smooth ice cream. Another thing I hoped was for the affogato to be a bit bigger portion. But then again, I am unsure about the sizings of affogato since this is my first time trying it. Thank you Honeymee Gardena for the experiance, hoping to try more in the future. (Update: Making this edit because I accidentally spelled the cafe name wrong in my previous review which I apologize for. The typo was made because when I was writing the review, I was also very busy so I wrote everything in a hurry and wasn't able to make changes. And yes, this update took so long to be made because when I write reviews, especially in this case, I often do different reviews all at once.)

Manhattan Beach Creamery is an independent, local Manhattan Beach landmark worth a stop for anyone…read morevisiting the area - and multiple visits if they are to your taste. While I've been here a few times this is my first formal review. I came with my family one Sunday evening on a hot July day, bypassing several chains on the way, including the new(er) Salt and Straw across the street. The inside is packed to the brim with sweets, small toys, and people, much like a candy shop of old. After reaching the front of the winding line our family shared a Banana Split ($13) - three scoops of ice cream, a split banana, hot fudge, a single dry topping (we chose coconut), whipped cream, and a trio of cherries - about as classic as it comes. The ice cream was good but not exceptional. The chocolate and strawberry were fairly generic, but I liked the third scoop of banana foster ice cream which had a nice banana kick. I doubt this ice cream is home made. The complements and construction to the sundae were great, however, and the flavors came together well. As I would hope for a location like this, the staff are local youths who served with patience and passion. In cases throughout the store are several of their other specialties - ice cream cookie sandwiches, dipped frozen bananas, and more - inviting repeat visits. Prices are elevated but not crazy for such a trendy area, although I would say with the middling quality of the ice cream a couple dollars less would be fine. Overall, Manhattan Beach Creamery is a local landmark worth at least a single visit for anyone in the area. If you can get past the generic, if a little boring, ice cream flavor and rampant commodification of the interior, you'll find a classic ice cream parlor with great service and history. Is it worth a repeat visit? I leave that to you. Food: 4/5 Service: 4.5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Value: 4/5

And their scoops aren't tiny -- they are the full, overflowing scoop of ice cream. The staff is helpful and friendly. You can try some flavors before you decide what you want to get. Today, the inside was decorated for the World Cup 2026 fans, and there definitely were some global visitors, judging by the languages I overheard in the line while waiting for my turn.

Mr. Universe: 10/10. Omggg soooooo good. This is one of the best flavors I've ever had anywhere. Malted cookies n cream: 9.5/10. So close to being the best flavor but definitely the second best. Hokey pokey: 8/10. Really solid flavor but still really good. Parfait: 7/10. I had high hopes but was a bit disappointed. The matcha ice cream was good, but by the time I got to the vanilla at the bottom, it was all melted. The rice balls were really good though I normally don't care for rice balls. There was matcha jelly but there were maybe only four pieces but I would have liked more. The whipped cream did nothing to add to the parfait - it's just a basic whipped cream out of a can from what I can tell. The red bean is too sweet. I would have loved to try peach but didn't since I wanted to try all these first. No samples, FYI. You can get it in a cup or cone, but cones are an extra charge. Parking is in a small lot with lots of other great places. Note that they're closed Sundays.

The self-serve frozen yogurt machines stood before me like gleaming monuments to dairy perfection. I grabbed a cup with trembling hands, positioning it beneath the first dispenser. The creamy ribbon of vanilla descended in a perfect spiral--smooth, pristine, impossibly white. I pulled the lever on the chocolate swirl. The moment it touched my tongue for a test taste, time stopped. Rich cocoa notes exploded across my palate, balanced perfectly with tangy yogurt cultures. Not too sweet. Not too tart. The temperature exactly cold enough to refresh without causing brain freeze. My taste buds sang in harmony! But the true battlefield lay ahead, the toppings bar. Fresh strawberries, gleaming like rubies. Mochi pieces that promised chewy resistance. Chocolate chips, cookie crumbles, crushed Oreos, gummy bears in every color. Nuts, almonds, pecans, walnuts waiting to add textural complexity. And the sauces! Hot fudge, caramel, strawberry syrup, positioned like weapons in an arsenal. With surgical precision, I assembled my masterpiece. Fresh fruit for brightness. Mochi for chew. A strategic drizzle of caramel forming golden rivers through vanilla peaks. At the register, the final moment: the weigh-in. Worth. Every. Ounce. As the first complete spoonful entered my mouth, all the elements united--creamy, crunchy, chewy, fruity, sweet--a symphony of texture and flavor that could only be described as... PERFECTION

The freeze consist of 4 scoops of their sherbet, sorbet or Italian ice along with a whole bottle of Sprite. Once in a while, Brusters will have special nights when they do $4 freezes and this was exactly how i got to try my first freeze. The freezes are quite the deal and treat for the summer. They are so refreshing and tasty. I chose to get a peach freeze and enjoyed it a lot. My friend got a black raspberry freeze and this was also quite tasty. For four scoops of a sherbet, a freeze is definitely a treat and an indulgence! I think I may have found my new favorite treat at Brusters.

There was a sign that said credit cards are only accepted for transactions greater than $20. My order was much less than that, but they took my credit card payment without a fuss. Also, I told them I didn't want any toppings, but they encouraged me to add toppings since they were free.
