Fun place with lots of choices. I did the best I could...hot fudge sundae with two tasty flavors... toasted coconut and Bananas Foster. Coffee on a waffle cone was tasty as well. Nice folks work here...great establishment. Enjoyed sitting out front on the sidewalk with plenty of fresh air.

This place is delicious. The line moves fast! It is a must try! I ventured out and ate their famous beach buns! The warm bun with the cold ice cream was so good. I did not like it with pecan praline, but the rocky road was good. The best was the strawberry cheesecake. We had two of these a day on our trip!

Amazing macaroons, had all flavors and they were amazing, moist, and chilled. I would come here every time. I also see a lot of people talking about the employees attitude, it’s sort of a a thing they have and I find it entertaining. It’s nothing personal.

Ice cream and ocean views? What could be better! I love visiting Manhattan Beach especially for ice cream.This magical place is like walking into a unicorns dream. I love the chandeliers and the pink sky ceiling, they add that fun girlie touch.Now, not only do they make and sell ice cream, Manhattan Beach Cream makes cupcakes, cookies, and many other sweet treats!With 28 flavors rotated daily, it was hard to choose! I loved the heath bar coffee and maple bacon crunch! YUM!

5 stars for the great ice cream. Zero stars for the chaos and disorganization from the entrance to the exit. What a ridiculous setup and chaotic way to order and pay... Workers and customers have no idea who paid, who ordered, who needs to order, who walked out without paying, who stole candies, who paid twice.. unreal 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️💩💩

I made my own chocolate-dipped ice cream sandwich with white chocolate macadamia nut cookies and mocha almond fudge ice cream. On my next visit, I had their Bananas Foster ice cream with almonds on top. Both were delicious! The store was very cute, but it was so difficult to decide what to get, because everything looked so good! The staff was friendly and offered to let me try any of the flavors I liked, which was good for an indecisive person like me. They offer so many things beyond ice cream like crepes, cakes, chocolates, classic candies, and ice cream filled donuts. I cant wait to go back to try them all.

Pretty cool place for ice cream and other desserts! Definitely recommended after a hot stroll in the beach. Just a couple of blocks from the water/pier.

Location:Good, Parking:Okay, Service:Good, Covid 19 practices: in place, Seating:outside, Price for product:Okay, Overall: I did like the fact that they had both ice cream and frozen yogurt choices as well as other sweet choices...

Pretty big selection of pastries and ice cream can be found in a modern, yet classy atmosphere of Manhattan Beach. Sorbets are refreshing, while the warm doughnut filed with your choice of ice cream is a little too sweet but very good too.

Review №22

Really nice view with a unique outdoor seating area, but the service felt very rushed. The cream-which they are known for wasnt satisfying at all since the cookies were so cold and hard that when you bite on them the very little ice cream inside the sandwich spills out the other side. There were no condiments such as syrup or anything. Found it to be overpriced for a mediocre experience.

Review №25

Was rudely met with an aggressive attitude towards myself and my emotional support animal. Not the way to greet customers, so we went up the block to gelato & angels who greeted us pleasantly. If your employees are not happy to be at work I suggest you find new ones who are.

Manhattan Beach Creamery sells mostly ice cream items, but they do have a small selection of cupcakes. By small, I mean a few flavors, between the usual vanilla, chocolate, and red velvet. You ever had one of those eats moments when you bite into something and immediately your brain goes, “wow”? That was this cupcake. Not too sweet, soft and fluffy cake, simple but tasteful. I just wish they had more flavors.

Review №28

All sorts of sweet treats here to satisfy any sweet tooth. From packaged candies, homemade ice cream (their staple), ice cream cookie sandwiches, Katella Bakery cookies, and lots of other creations.I highly recommend the Creamwich ice cream sandwiches (you can find them in 7/11s and Grocers but this is where they originated). Its their local ice cream combined with cookies from the famous Katella Bakery in Los Alamitos, their sister business from the same family.

Awesome ice cream at this place.The have a decent ice cream selection to choose from. Provided in either cup or cone. They not only sell ice cream, but other treats as well. They also had some ice cream sandwhiches which are awesome. I had one myself and didnt regret it one bit.

Ive always had good experiences at MBC but recently i had an experience that made me not want to go back. I was talking to one of the workers Giselle and she was unprofessional and rude in her conduct towards me. I asked if was at the right place to order and scowling at me said NO YOU ARE NOT, i was like ok.... hope she was just having a bad day. Then said in a condescending voice, you can go to that counter or this other counter to order ( i was literally 2 feet away from where she wanted me to stand to order...). I hope others dont have negative experiences with Giselle like i have. On the other hand the other lady who was a bit older helped me and was super nice 10/10 for her. As a business owner i would not tolerate my employees treating customers the way Giselle did with me.

Review №41

The ice cream tasted good here but the staff was the least helpful and least friendly ice cream scooper is in the history of Manhattan Beach. So what was the deal isn’t this supposed to be a good experience getting ice cream when you pop into Manhattan Beach for the first time on vacation? The staff really has to do a better job at even being friendly. I hope you get it better next time.

Review №48

I give Manhattan Beach Creamery high marks for the view. Employees are friendly. Servings are generous.Ice cream wasn’t kept cold enough. Why they left the freezer cases open is a mystery. Some of the flavors were so soft that they couldn’t scoop them. This is not a great sign for freshness or texture.Mint Oreo flavor was ok. Coffee was a little sweet. The Peanut Butter in the Peanut Butter Chocolate was so so. I liked the vanilla chip well enough.Biggest “no no” was the piece of plastic found in my cousin’s ice cream serving.I had high hopes and was disappointed.

This great shop is best known for is ice cream, but it offers much more than that! Situated on the corner of an intersection with ocean views, there is limited seating both inside and out. There is a full ice cream selection, but if that doesnt work for you, they also have candies and treats! It can get busy on hot days, but the line tends to move quickly. Its handicapped accessible, but there is no bathroom for three public. Overall a great place to get a cool treat near the beach!

Review №53

Hands down, the best ice cream / dessert / place to get your sweet tooth fix you will ever find. The lines out the door until late at night scare a lot of people away but they are just for the hand scooped ice cream. There is almost never a wait for the countless other treats which are even more addictive. The dipped, frozen cheesecake on a stick is s favorite and Im not even that much of a cheesecake fan. This place may be too much of a temptation for locals so I recommend avoiding it but if you are just visiting (and leaving soon) it is a mast try.

We came here on a chilly November 1st night. I was disappointed they didnt have any vegan or non-dairy ice cream, but, they did have sorbet which is non-dairy.The sorbet selection this evening was watermelon and mango. I bought a two scoop cup and asked for half watermelon and half mango. They offered to swirl the two flavors, but I declined. We took our cups and sat outside and people watched. We loved our sorbet, both flavors were delightful and soooooo yummy.

Did not have Pralines & Cream or Maple Bacon flavors. Very disappointing! Had to settle for Butter Pecan which was still good tho. Staff was cool, but kids behind the glass zoned out a couple of times and had to be reminded we were still there.
