"Double Rainbow is an ice cream company founded by two best friends in the Castro in the 1970s. It returned to the neighborhood in late 2020 with a new scoop shop just a couple of doors down from its original location. Longtime fans stop by for old-school scoops of malt chocolate, It’s a Goody, and mint chip." - Dianne de Guzman, Paolo Bicchieri
