When in a different city, I love to go on yelp and look up ice cream spots. Rain or shine. I was excited and intrigued to check out Lick Honest Ice Creams. After going to The Thinkery, we saw that there was a Lick location in the same plaza so that was a no brainer. As soon as I stepped inside, I knew that I was instantly in a happy place.
1. Sample, sample, sample! We tried some seasonal and usual flavors that caught our eye. Confession: most of the flavors grabbed our attention so we're so glad that Lick has excellent customer service and they let us try so many so we could decide what to get in the end. I really enjoyed Lady bird lavender crisp, Texas sheer cake, roasted beets and fresh mint, goat cheese/honey/thyme, tres leches, sweet cream and strawberry, just to name a few. There were also quite a few vegan options as well!
2. For those who are local, there is a very cool promotion of being a Scoop Society member which gets you 1 free topping for the entire month, bogo free small ice creams, Friday waffle cone/bowls. How fun is that? If I lived in Austin, I would gladly be a member and I truly wish that San Diego would have something like this!
3. Indoor and outdoor seating, which is perfect depending on the weather.
Overall, it's impossible to have a bad day when ice cream is involved! I highly recommend this place for anyone wanting ice cream because you won't be disappointed at all. read more
