The Penny Ice Creamery, Santa Cruz CA

Nice, natural classic ice cream, just awesome near downtown. Park and walk around after getting ice cream.

Tons of unique flavors! I especially love that you can get blowtorched marshmallow as a topping! They also source all their ingredients locally. The only negative is that they don't keep a consistent menu. You can't usually just get vanilla, strawberry, or chocolate. More likely something like vanilla with rose petal. They're weird flavors are still great though!

Best ice cream in Santa Cruz! The popsicles are amazing and if you go during happy hour you get a double for the price of a single! (And Verve coffee!)

Got a hard frozen scoop instead of a creamy ice scream and they didn’t want to replace it. They said it is supposed to be like this.if so.no worth it

Snall batches of ice cream made in the open kitchen right next to the shop. You can watch the process, including pasteurization and then freezing. The flavors are seasonal and the cones are also freshly made. The servers are nice and a popular topping seems to be the marshmallow fluff, which is roasted behind the counter while you wait. They have mini scoop sizes for kids, and the single scoop is generous.

Best icecream ever! They always have different flavors when I go in. Try the strawberry peppercorn! You will not be disappointed

Organic small batch ice cream. Only 6-8 flavors. Wonderful flavors but not a great place if you have picky kids who like plain flavors. Friendly service.

The best ever. Best in Santa Cruz. They are one if four creameries in CA (?) that pasteurize on site, so all ingredients are made fresh there or provided from local farms or fooderies. The result is ice cream light on fat and sugars that usually mask flavors-this ice cream you can taste the real mint, chocolate, fruit.whatever you like.

It was amazing and the only icecream parlour that makes the icecream in house, i would recommend the earl of grey for the tea lovers

AMAZING I go there almost every weekend and my favorite is dark chocolate sorbet with marshmallow fluff or caramel sauce. I love how there is no artificial flavors and the ice cream always tastes fresh. Definitely a 5 star!
