Best For
Better for: Best waterfront ice cream experience in Long Beach - unbeatable location with ocean views, handmade waffle sundaes, and the full Shoreline Village atmosphere; great for combining dessert with a scenic walk
Skip if: You want artisanal small-batch flavors or adventurous options - this is solid gourmet ice cream but focused on classics and crowd-pleasers rather than innovative flavors; also skip if you need indoor seating on hot/cold days
