Cookiebar Creamery - Oakland

Absolute favorite ice cream place in the East Bay. They have so many fun flavors, like banana oreo, oolong mochi, thai tea, and ube, and every single flavor we have tried has been delicious. It is very underhyped and not busy like some other spots, and I think they’re better

Interesting and creative flavors that are TASTY, like banana oreo. They have seasonal flavors too, like chrysanthemum sorbet . Also a very solid smash burger and fried chicken sandwich!

Near Old Oakland is this brightly painted ice cream and treats shop that sells made to order ice cream cookie sandwiches. You can also get the ice cream without the cookies. Try a scoop of the ube (taro or purple yam) and black sesame ice cream. Both may be the best of those flavors I’ve ever had. The ube is aromatic like the taro bubble tea drinks from boba shops. And the black sesame tastes toasty and nutty. Although indoor dining is not available, they have a few tables and chairs outside. I love learning this is an Asian owned business seems right since many of their flavors use Asian ingredients. Their non dairy sherbet has calamansi (A lemon/lime fruit from the Philippines)

Frequently visit this place and love their unique flavors... we normally get the strawberry and cream and ube. this time, we options for one of their seasonal flavors and it was alright. would've chosen something different had we gotten the chance to sample. Given that restrictions are loosening, we felt they should allow people to sample first so they can know which flavors they'd want without taking a risk!

Cookiebar Creamery has an impressive amount of ice cream flavors that are unique and will be hard to find anywhere else. Their cookies are freshly baked everyday. You can tell Cookiebar Creamery is a genuine creamery that takes pride in serving the best ice cream you can find.
