Cream was excellent! Great service on a busy summer night. Vegan options were plentiful, this was the Fudgin awesome sandwich with Mint Chocolate Chip Soy ice cream and Oreo crumbs. SUPERB! Best concept Ive seen in awhile, they even changed gloves for my dairy concerns. 10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Loved it! Small ice cream shop in San Mateo on B Street. Cream specializes in Ice cream sandwiches with brownies and cookies. Also ice cream in cones and cups too. Tons of toppings. Attracts families and crowds of all ages..

They have a lot of different options for toppings and ice cream. And they had 2 lactose free options which was appreciated. Would be nice if there was a 2-3 more of those flavors. Staff were friendly and helpful when me and my friend were asking a million questions about the menu.

Even without all the toppings the ice cream is good. Im loving the atmosphere here.

Delicious ice-cream sandwich and ice cream tacos! Newly added birthday cake ice cream flavor is so good :) Price of sandwich gone up a $1 within a year :/

This concept is so simple and so smart... Ice cream sandwiches, just the way you like them!

Cool concept and decent food but didnt love the ice cream as much as Id hoped.

So many gummy bears on the mini sandwich. Cute! But the cookies were not soft and warm.

Ubered all the way down here because Google and Yelp said they close at midnight. Got here at 11:30pm Open sign is on, but no one is home... Guy outside said those are summer hours??? Yet its Nov 30th, so plenty of time to update their hours.... Pretty lame

I had the sundae with brownies!!! It was amazing!! Felt the brownies were dry. Would go without the brownies next time!

Delicious ice cream, prompt and friendly service.

One of the best Ice cream places in San Mateo! Their large variety of Flavors suits to anyone’s sweet tooth. Not to mention their delicious, soft, warm and delicate cookies that they use to make the perfect ice cream sandwich. I usually get a regular chocolate chip cookie with Green Tea ice cream. And if you aren’t much of a cookie fan, Just pop in and get a pint to go. All in all a great experience for people with a strong love for cold dessert.

Great ice cream, nice staff, and a good variety of flavors/toppings.Lines can get long, and be slow. But its worth the wait if you love ice cream!Theyve got ice cream in cups, build your own ice cream sandwich, waffle cones, waffle bowls and more.And the brownie ice cream sandwich is top notch.

Been to the Walnut Creek one. This location is not as nice. Maybe it was because it was close to 10 pm. The chocolate chip and the Mac nut white chocolate cookies were not warm and kind of tough as I bit into my Rocky Road ice cream sandwich. Plus, the Rocky Road was hard. Had to chew because the normally warm cookies would have soften the ice cream to bring out the flavors. Couldnt really taste the chocolate, marshmallows or nuts.The price is the same at $3 without topping which is a great price if the custom-made ice cream sandwich was great.Hubby liked his Banana Fosters ice cream sandwich. He could taste the bananas and caramel. His Mac nut cookies were barely warm too. Only saving grace - there was no line - since we were there late.

Fun idea of ice cream sandwiches where you can choose your cookies and ice cream. Liked that you can have different cookies on either side, and the cookies were pretty good, especially as they warm them up so the ice cream sort of melts, which is messy but delicious! Normally I find ice cream sandwiches too solid as the cookies are frozen too, so these were very good. The one negative of this store was the service though. One staff member, who took her sweet time about everything... It took us almost 20 mins to get served, and there was only one family in front of us. So while I like the idea of made to order ice cream sandwiches, Id suggest they find a more efficient delivery mechanism!

Out of this world. Delicious, soft cookies and great flavors of ice cream! Classic toppings for your sandwiches

The deserts are so good. I highly recommend this place

Great cookies and ice cream. A great selection and it was quick as well. I got the Turtle Cookie (chocolate and peanuts... whole peanuts) and salted caramel ice cream. I loved the warmed up cookies and the icecream was good as well.To the critics:If its too sweet, youre eating ice cream between two cookies. Enough said.If you cant bite ice cream, man up (or woman up).If the cookie flavor overtakes ice cream flavor, you chose the wrong combination. Try again. They didnt choose that combo for you.Peace out!

This is a bit much for me, sandwiching fatty ice cream between two fatty cookies, but you have to do it once I guess. I prefer a little more refined eating than have nowhere to sit while trying to eat something like this without it dripping, falling apart, and going everywhere. But the ambiance is great, especially later in the evening when there is often a decent sized queue.

To start, I cant really understand how anyone can give a place that serves cookie ice cream sandwiches less than 5 stars. So clearly I am biased. However, this place is not dishing out anything low quality - the cookies as amazing and super fresh, and the ice cream is top notch. Highly recommend the mini sandwiches so you can try a bunch of flavor combos. Or better yet, just eat a ton of full size ones... I am not going to judge you.

Great fresh baked cookies and ice cream, not a whole lot of seating.

Ice cream _and_ cookies. _Warm_ cookies. Its the kids favourite local dessert place. Id like to try a few others before I declare that, but the kids arent interested in trying anything else... 8-)

First time seeing an ice cream store with a focus on ice cream sandwiches. Theyve got a ton of gimmicky (and delicious) combinations and alternatives. Store itself is clean and modern. Definitely give it a try, at least once

I liked the variety of mix. However the staff were rude and hurried to take the next order before we got to choose (or even try a different flavor).Also, if a sandwich ice cream wrapper falls off the hand on to the floor, please use a new one rather than dusting it off and using the same.

Typical dessert place. Cookies are warm, but not crunchy if you want that. Cookies are good by themselves.

I give them credit for the concept plus the smell of the cookies travels about a block each way so it is extremely tempting. However, they have a few design issues to address. The cookies are too hot and the ice cream too soft and it ends up being a mess by the third bite and only getting worse. You cant really enjoy the experience when you are trying to eat and not have everything drip on you. Perhaps, scoop the ice cream and give it a quick freeze and then place in between cookies or perhaps, lower the temperature of the cookies. Just some thoughts. Good concept, execution needs a little improvement

With all the fuss that I have heard about Cream, it took me almost four years before I finally had my first.Things to know,It is now $4 for one ice cream sandwich and one topping is no longer included (will cost you $.75 each)You can mix and match your cookies before they warm in the oven + 1 one ice cream choiceSuggest you split in half and share unless you have a huge sweet toothOverall ThoughtsWhile I am glad to have finally tried Cream, I do not forsee myself going back especially if there is a line

Good ice cream place. Especially more so if you have that sudden craving after the 9 pm movie. Infact one of the very few desert places open after 10 pm in this area?

Cookie was like a dog biscuit. The ice cream was good. But the cookie for the ice cream sandwich needed a chisel to break down. Feels bad man

Always hit the spot. Great selection of ice cream and cookies!!! Ahh yes.

Unfortunately I came here looking for a nice treat but showed up to a closed building. The hours on Google say that it should have been open for another 30 minutes and the open sign was still flashing on. That is really upsetting to me because we spent money on an Uber to get all the down here.

I love this place! The banana walnut ice cream between a walnut brownie is the best combo

Helpful staff. Able to work quickly to deal with large groups. Go ready to eat!

Pretty good ice cream sandwiches... cookies are wonderfulRecently raised prices however... replaced with a mini option thats too small... definitely go for the $3 one

If u can spare a few extra calories then go for it. I really like their choice of ice cream

Ice cream is good. Not the best not the worst. Cookies were mediocre. The store wasnt the cleanest either.

Ordered just a single scoop of ice cream, but the ice cream is amazing! We went on a Saturday night around 9pm and there was a small line. Only downside is there is very little seating, so expect to stand or take the ice cream with you.

This is a great spot when you are looking for fresh cookies with ice There is practically no space to sit so dont plan on being able to stay there. Walk to the park or eat on your way back to the car.

The best ice cream sandwiches everywhere! Love stopping by at Cream on the weekends when I have free time!!! :)

This place is better than the Berkeley and downtown San Jose location. Its so open and the employees were very friendly. They only problem I had is the window cling for the store was advertising the Pina Colada combination that showed the coconut ice cream and fresh pineapple chunks. When I ordered it inside I got dried pineapple so they were just very sweet pieces of sugar. It would have been nice to have real, unprocessed fruit.

Love the ice cream sandwich idea, however, poorly executed. The ice cream tastes low quality and the cookies store bought. Make at least one part of the equation in house to have some high quality sammies!

Really good ice cream. And great idea with the cookie sandwiches. Ice cream but quite cold enough.

This was a fun place to go. The cookies used to make my sandwich were warm which was nice but also meant they fell apart while trying to eat the ice cream sandwich. Also most of the toppings added to my ice cream also fell off while eating. Tables were also super messy which makes me believe toppings falling off is a common problem.

The best desert spot Ive been to. Chocolate chip with peanut butter ice cream is LEGIT. the downside was there were a bunch of flies inside so I had to rush outside to eat. If it wasnt for that it would be 5 stars.

Great ready to order Ice Cream Sandwiches. Choose from a good amount of cookie choices and ice cream. Great price, tastes great!

The ice cream sandwich variations are great. I always enjoy coming here for a snack.

I love how the cookies come out warm and primarily for the sandwich!! Cookies n cream, French vanilla are my go to! Cookies Rule Everything Around Me! #CREAM

Cookies and ice cream. Its great, but not mind blowing. Love that they offer mini options though.

The cookies are really soft bc they keep them half baked and then finish them in the convection oven when you order. The ice cream is really good and they have a variety of unique and classic flavors

This location is really small but the ice cream and cookies, as always, were delicious. I like the Palo Alto location better.

Fun concept, but last time I went the cream just wasnt tasty. Left without getting anything because nothing I tried tasted good, mostly just bland.

Dang good stuff! Lots of cookies to choose from. Not enormous ice cream selection but what they have is excellent.

Being adverse to dairy, I went here with my family anyway to try out their vegan options. The cookie was solid, but I cant say the vegan ice cream was that great. However, the rest of the family absolutely loved the standard cookies and cream w/ chocolate chip cookies as the sandwich.

Yummy ice cream sandwiches! They also have gluten free cookies 😁

Mhmm 🤤 I haven’t been here in soo long ! I got a snickerdoodle with mint chocolate chip with a toffee topping ! So damn delicious! Always good to have cream every once in a while

So many choices, I was a bit overwhelmed. I had churro flavor in between two brownies. Very good. I will definitely come here again to tryem all!

Dont go too crazy with your order, and youll have a good time.Overpriced for the small portion and your going to lose a lot from melting

They offer custom-made ice cream sandwiches. The cookie itself was nothing fancy. The ice cream was good, but not really up my alley, as I generally prefer my ice cream to have a melt-in-the-mouth feel. I guess thats just not possible with an ice cream sandwich... the ice cream would melt too quickly and it would just be one big mess. So Creams ice cream is probably thicker and less melty on purpose.I wouldnt wait in a long line for this, but I do love ice cream, so I might wander back in here sometime again.

Prices for an ice cream sandwich is nearly doubled compared to their south bay counterparts. Good overall ice cream / cookies, service is okay.

Two cookies and some ice cream in the middle. Good, but you have to be in the mood for it. Really sweet.

My daughter loves this place. One of the few places that takes caution to nut allergies.

Fun ice cream joint where you pick your choice of cookies and ice cream for an awesome ice cream sandwich. A must try while you are in the bay area!

Yum yum yum yummmm. Just delicious. Gluten free options, non dairy options, fantastic.

Yummy ice cream, all of the baked goods looked tasty though I didnt try any.

LOVE Cream its absolutely delicious. One of the staff was very rude though once, so hence the 4 stars instead of 5.

Cream has been our favorite ice cream shop. There are two *vegan* ice creams and three kinds of *vegan* cookies to our delight!

I love it. My best was salted caramel on choco cookie....

Delicious and so many great options. Definitely worth going to for a quick treat.

Really good ice cream! Did not get the cookie sandwich but Ill be back to try it!

Stopped in here as it was related to a Geocache nearby. Had a 2 dollar ice cream sandwich, and wow what a treat. Delicious!

Im not a massive ice cream fan but the way Cream serves a scoop between two warm cookies so that it is soft and tasty is unbeatable! And they are great value!

Delicious, fast, friendly. Really good cookies and tons of different kinds of ice cream.

Super tasty and overfilling. I wish the cookies were a little less cooked. The toppings, cookie and ice cream options vary nicely.

If youre an icecream lover n love cookies this is the place for you fast n delicious!!will satisfy your sweet tooth!!

Classic, exactly what youd expect from Cream. Lots of options besides cookies - I want to try the brownie sandwich still but apparently you cant do half cookie and half brownie

The Cookie - Ice Cream thing is a really great idea!

Love going here and its across the street from the movie theater.

Cookies and ice creams are everyones favourite and this place serves the best ones in San Mateo.

Fast service, friendly enough staff, my son loves the ice cream.

Whats not to like about a scoop of your favorite ice cream in the warm embrace of two of your favorite cookies? Nothing, thats what!

So cool. You get to create your own ice cream sandwiches!!

Heard good things about CREAM so I decided to try it and I was just around the area so decided to try it! Now for parking, you most likely will have to pay for parking as there are no free parking. Came in here and it was really beautiful setup they had. Felt like a ice cream parlor! Smelled like fresh baked cookies and that just made me want to eat my ice cream right away.I ended up ordering the cin-ful churro and birthday cake ice cream after I tasted tested like half a dozen different flavors or course. Dont judge me! Also gf ended up getting cup of joe ice cream. Had to order some cookies also so I got Creamfetti (birthday cake with confetti ) and double chocolate chip.Now these flavors were so awesome I had to get the Cin-ful churro instead of my usual double birthday cake scoops so that means it was REAL good. It tastes just like a churro in ice cream form! Birthday cake was made correctly and just how it should be! Creamy and cake flavored!Of course cup of joe was just like coffee and gf really liked it!The two cookies I got was really good. Creamfetti was something Ive never tasted which was birthday cake and made really well! Double chocolate chip was actually really good also. The best part of these cookies were soft and chewy and they were not hard at all. Dont forget to ask them to warm the cookies!I would definitely come here if I had the chance to! fantastic place to come and have dessert! Im just thinking about it at midnight when Im so far away from it! Sad face

The ice cream is great! Service was just ok.

Tasty ice cream sandwiches with a lot of combination possibilities and only $3.

Love going here for Late evening ice cream sandwiches

Great taste with cheap price

The cookies are okay, the ice cream is nice, but the shake was disappointing. The cherry on top was diminutive, and the whipped cream was like reddiwhip.

What can I say, it is all yummy here. Who doesnt like a warm cookie with ice cream?!

Great cookies and ice-cream combine for a tasty sandwich!

Family was in town and we stopped in for a treat! Delicious!

The service was a little slow, but the cookies and ice cream was delicious!

Amazing ice-cream and tons of flavor combinations!

Great ice cream and sandwiches. Service was mediocre.

Best ice cream in town.fresh cookies and great ice cream

Delicious ice cream and signature ice cream sandwiches. However, staff are obnoxiously loud and unprofessional in front of customers and this detracts heavily from the overall experience.

Fresh ice cream sandwiches, need I say more?

You know that irresistible aroma of fresh-baked cookies that flows in the air and wafts past your nose making you stop in your step and wonder, where is that delicious scent coming from? Yea, thats how Cream entices you into their store. I was able to resist the first time I came to the area, just buying Gong Cha and leaving. But when I came with my family, my sister was unable to resist the tempting aroma of cookies and made it her mission to get an ice cream sandwich cookie before we headed back to LA. And I followed her inside since the smell of cookies was just too amazing.So Cream has a wide assortment of freshly baked cookies as well as a good number of ice cream flavors and toppings to do any sort of combination/creation that your heart desires. You can get cookies by itself, ice cream by itself, make an ice cream cookie sandwich, add toppings, make a premium ice cream cookie sandwich, make sundaes, make a taco (3 ice cream flavors and 2 toppings), purchase brownies, buy milkshakes, or get a coffee drink. Yep, the menu is pretty extensive. So if you want to make some sort of ice cream cookie concoction, chances are the workers at Cream will help you out.I tried the butter sugar cookie on its own while my sister got a snickerdoodle salted caramel ice cream sandwich. The cookies individually werent too expensive - like around a dollar or so for each, and they were taken right out of the oven! The butter sugar cookie was a bit of a let down in that it was way too sweet. I couldnt finish the entire cookie because the flavor was a bit too cloying. It reminded me a lot of the sugar cookies from Ralphs, which .. meh, are decent but not the best.The moment I heard my sister order the ice cream sandwich, I knew she wouldnt finish it. And I was right! The combination was way too sweet. The snickerdoodle cookies were amazing. Still warm from the oven, it tasted like cinnamon and sugar - bliss! The salted caramel ice cream was also good - by itself. Its definitely nowhere near as good as Bi-Rites. Mixed with the cookie and it was really sweet. And I like sweet things, but this was too much. We couldnt finish the cookie sandwich and had to toss some of it in the trash, which was really sad. However, price for this wasnt too bad - around $3-$4 and I think there was a check in offer.tl;dr - Workers are fairly nice. This shop is definitely a good place to go if youre in the mood for a quick dessert or treat. Everything is clean, there are plenty of tables, the storefront is amazing, and the smell of cookies will draw you in! I would recommend trying the flavors of ice cream first before combining it with a cookie because these concoctions can get super sweet! I would just order cookies and ice cream separately, but thats just me. Glad I got to try Cream and its good to know that there are locations in SoCal that I can easily visit. I rarely get a craving for ice cream, so if anything I will be back for the cookies!

Tasty ice cream.

Super good ice cream sandwiches

Love to take my niece to this place
