Fosters Freeze

Omg Yummy Goodness, it's definitely a hot spot to hit on those beautiful cool afternoons when the sun is finished, beating down hard all day. (Their Ice-cream) (5 Stars) Yet there Food SUCKS!!!! The Chilli Cheese in a Cup tasted liie it was out of a Can,, Gross.. (1 Star )

Went for an ice cream treat. Decided on the original parfait with cherry instead of strawberry and the chocolate cherry brownie parfait with hot fudge. The line was consistent and prices a little high. The ice cream was fresh and tasty the whip cream with nuts with cherry on top was delicious. Didn’t try the food only ice cream. Fast service and plenty of parking ten out of ten recommend.

2nd time coming here, my husband and I brought our nieces to get a sweet treat. Super good, love that they use Thrifty's ice cream. Definitely get your moneys worth and the sizes are huge! Great spot for the family or just for yourself.

Definitely takes me back to my youth. Love soft serve ice cream, especially dipped cones! I opted for the new chocolate dipped waffle cone, which is basically your adult version of the iconic drumstick. Can be a little messy unless you’re really eating fast, but that’s part of the nostalgia. Service is definitely fast and friendly and worthy of five stars, but price was like $8.25 and like $10 with tip. Definitely worth a trip, but my wallet and waistline will keep it as a special treat only :)

Finally came here the other day and was not disappointed. I ordered the Old Fashioned with Cheese and Oreo Shake, plus fries. The burger was good. Tasted like a good old fashioned burger cooked by your dad manning the BBQ. Fries were perfectly crisp crinkle cut. The best! You only need one order for 2 people. They give you a lot! The shake was delicious. Happy I only ordered a small because it was a lot to finish. Looking forward to returning to try more sweet treats. Would highly recommend making the stop.

This place is getting expensive. Every time I visit, their prices keep going up. It's good ice cream, but doesn't match the price. I'd rather go to Handle's for a better price and product.

Greatest ice cream within a 100 mile radius straight up. I mean where else can you get a banana split or a malt?? Service is always fast, bathroom is clean, and the vintage vibes are immaculate. A little pricey but what isn’t in this economy? The quality and portion size make up for it as well. Definitely coming back as my go to ice cream spot

Good place for a burger fries and a drink...and best place to top it all off with a Fosters Freeze. Just dropped in with the Wife during her lunch break and had some burger combos and a cone to complete the deal. Food is always prepared to order and comes out hot and delicious. 😋 Service is quick and friendly. Had a seat indoors, dining area is small but clean. There is some outside seating and limited parking so taking food to go is probably the option for most folks. Definitely coming back during this time of year for more good food and ice cream.

Came back because was craving it. This place was popping even 30 mins before closing. So good! Service is quick too.

Fosters Freeze in Glendora is a great little spot when you are craving something classic. I ordered a vanilla cone and it was way bigger than I expected, which was a nice surprise. The soft serve was creamy, cold, and exactly what I wanted on a warm day. The place has a nostalgic feel and the service was quick and friendly. Sometimes simple is all you need, and this cone definitely delivered.

Local fave. Next to the drive up dairy and across from our local Vons and Starbucks sits a Glendora classic, Fosters Freeze. We mostly stick to ice cream but you can get a burger and other items and they do have a small inside area. Nothing fancy at all. It's what you'd expect but solid. The reason we come to Fosters is that it's a treat for the family or a place to meet up with friends. The chocolate dipped vanilla cone is always my go to and I don't get anything other than that. It reminds me of a small place in NC where I spent a few years of my youth that our soccer coach would take us to after practice - back when the team would hop in the back of the truck for a ride to grab ice cream (different times). That place was called Rooneys Ive cream and they had soft serve and chocolate dipped just like Fosters. Sometimes the best places are the ones where memories are made. For me, it's taking the kids out for ice cream after a school concert or game. It's enjoying a late night treat for no reason. That's what Fosters is for us. Yes, the ice cream is great. The place is nostalgic. And, the service is always friendly and fast.

My friend got a chocolate ice cream cone and I ordered a banana split -- both were delicious! She said her cone tasted just like Hershey's Kisses, which was fun. My banana split was fresh, sweet, and topped just right. Service was okay, nothing over the top but friendly enough. I liked all the colorful posters on the windows -- it gives the place a nostalgic, old-school vibe. The only downside was the floor outside; it looked pretty dirty and could definitely use a good pressure wash. Overall, I had a good experience here with the sweets. I didn't try their food this time, but maybe next time I will!

We went for banana splits. The banana splits were delicious. Service was fair enough, place was crowded, but they got through the line quickly. Their tables and seating areas do need some upgrade!

Walk up and order your ice cream. Quick and friendly service. Be mindful of the size order. I ordered a large cheesecake and oreo freeze, didnt know large meant Big Gulp large. Had to stick in the freezer and eat it the other half the next day. No air bubbles or hollow core. Packed!

Dirty dairy queen...very dirty....mmmmm lol Great quality ice cream soft serve treats way better than DairyQueen.

I love this place, hands down best ice cream around. The service is great and quick. The girls that work there always have a great attitude and their recommendations never disappoint

We visited on an early Wednesday afternoon with a group of 5 people. The young girl working, took our order right away and it was ready within 5-6 minutes. I got the oreo cheesecake twister which was delicious and had a generous amount of mix-ins. My husband got the cookie dough twister. We definitely enjoyed our desserts and would come back!

Wow!! Over $13 for a medium malt with two flavors and super cranky service! Absolutely crazy... Definitely won't make this mistake again.

Fosters Freeze has always been a childhood staple for me. Delicious soft serve, shakes, and twisters (basically a blizzard from Dairy Queen). You can make all types of flavor combos and it always hits the spot. The people that work there are very nice and have quick service. It has gotten a wee bit expensive over the years but I keep coming back. I love getting a mint oreo twister mmmm my favorite. Maybe I have to go again tonight now that I think about it! Go to Fosters Freeze for your little sweet treat!

They have the old school soft serve chocolate dipped cones(various sizes) that have that "waxy" feel to the dip when you bite into it. This is something I recall from my childhood and I love Foster's Freeze for this! Call me nostalgic. But I know what I like! Seating area is also old school and has smaller benches for seating. So most likely made for grade school students. It's a popular spot and gets crowded pretty quickly and parking becomes very limited. Come here if you like your favorite childhood treats. I know I'll be back for certain!

If you want a good old classic Oreo soft serve shake then this is the place to get it. They actually use Oreo pieces including the cream filling. This definitely tastes better than other fast food Oreo shakes!

The ice cream is so good! The service is nice there mostly younger people. But the vibe of the place is so nostalgic :) I recommend! 10/10!!

Great place to go get your ice cream fix. Banana splits, Cones, Dipped Cones, Sundaes, Shakes, Parfaits, and Twisters. This place gots you covered. There is parking on site. Tables inside and outside to enjoy your Fosters Freeze favorite. This place always has a long line, seems to move pretty quick. Wait wasn't that long. So with the weather starting to heat up give this local spot a shot.

What a fun throwback! So happy this location is still operating and has a line most days. They have a great selection for snacks & desserts. Outdoor seating. Service is friendly and fast.

This is the premiere Fosters Freeze in Southern California. I adore the location, the quality of service, and large portions.

First time at Fosters Freeze. Definitely happy about it. This location has a Lb old vibe to it. Very helpful and nice young ladies working here. They helped me and my kids make up our minds lol Huge menu! Something for everyone. We all got McFlurry/blizzard type. Sooo good. Fair prices and good portions. Plenty of parking as well. You can always modify and add to your choices. So that's cool. I'm definitely coming back if I'm in the area. We enjoyed our treats and service. Keep it up. See you soon.

Old fashioned Fosters Freeze. Don't expect much in regards to seating or ambiance but the ice cream is delicious and prices reasonable. Come here often for shakes which are always delicious.

Was up late in the West Covina area and was really craving a dipped cone. Well Fosters Freeze delivered. This drive up ice cream spot is the business! The vanilla ice cream was classic. Nice and velvet with a good vanilla flavor. And the chocolate dip had that chocolate flavor I was looking for! The gal at the window was very nice and the location was very nice. Parking left something to desire but overall had an awesome experience! Price wise it was super fair and the cone I ordered was exactly what I wanted. Next time I'm in West Covina I'll be back!

Definitely takes me back to my youth. Love soft serve ice cream, especially dipped cones! I opted for the new chocolate dipped waffle cone, which is basically your adult version of the iconic drumstick. Can be a little messy unless you're really eating fast, but that's part of the nostalgia. Service is definitely fast and friendly and worthy of five stars, but price was like $8.25 and like $10 with tip. Definitely worth a trip, but my wallet and waistline will keep it as a special treat only :)

The quintessential chocolate dipped swirl - EXCELLENT.. each and every time. We ask for it in a cup so we don't get sticky hands .. and it's worth the extra cost for the cup

I love this place, but a small vanilla cone dipped in chocolate is $6.20? Yeesh! Everything is so expensive nowadays, I guess I've cream is not exempt from the inflation.

I was really excited to find a spot that still serves chocolate-dipped cones and Blizzard-style treats. It's been ages since we've been to a place like Dairy Queen, so we decided to try Foster's Freeze, hoping for something similar. Given how long this place has been around, I figured it must be amazing. When we pulled up, the crowd was mostly older folks and families, which made sense. The service was fast--almost too fast. The chocolate-dipped cone was ready before I even handed over my card, and the Oreo-style blended treat came out right after. First impressions? The soft serve ice cream didn't really taste like soft serve ice cream. It had more of a watered-down, creamy texture--not necessarily bad, just not what I was expecting or used to. It was also super sweet, like way more sugary than I remember soft serve ice cream being. The dipped cone was melty, and while the chocolate itself wasn't bad, the combo with that strange ice cream texture made it kind of hard to enjoy. As for the Oreo-style treat, it tasted like they used off-brand cookies--not a huge deal, but it was hard not to notice. It made me wonder: how has this place stuck around for so long? It seems like they've found a way to maximize profits while pushing out pretty average food. A quick glance at other reviews shows the same pattern--mediocre quality, high prices. Honestly, I'm glad we didn't try anything else. At the end of the day, this spot clearly has nostalgic value for the community, and I can see why families and longtime locals keep coming back. But if you're looking for high-quality ice cream, spend a few extra bucks and hit up a local ice cream parlor--there are plenty nearby, and they're worth it.

The ice cream was ok. Not the best, overly priced. We planned on ordering food but the kitchen looks extremely dirty and food would not be a good choice.

One of few and I love this place! Great seating outside too nice and clean and deliciousness in every bite! Made to order and fresh!! I had the cheesecake twister with sprinkles.

I used to come here all the time when I was a kid, after practice with my siblings and parents. It was always dusk and hot, the perfect autumn days for ice cream. Today was the first time I have been back in maybe 9-10 years. I thought surely it must've been closed years ago due to its antiquity. To my surprise , it's still up and busy. The same paint, the same overwhelming collage of posters that look like they were printed sometime in 97', the same drive-thru liquor store across the street, nothing had changed one bit. Now I sit here in my car as a 23 year old man staring at the establishment, tears filling my eyes. Nostalgia is a crazy thing, folks. Memories of sitting next to my pregnant mother sharing a cup in that humid little dining area filled my head, or when I had to stick my little head under the window just so the cool teenager working the cashier could hear my small voice. Today I remember it all for the first time since then. Like muscle memory, I still remember my order, a mud pie, and felt myself stiffen when the cool teenager, now younger than me by light years, asked "coffee or no coffee?". That's right. I used to proudly advocate for no coffee every single time I ordered it as a kid. I said Coffee today, for I am an adult and adults consume coffee, haha. What a silly thing to think. This place is beyond 5 stars. It's a neighborhood treasure.

Good old school place. Menu is bigger than it once was. My family owned a franchise for years, so I have a soft spot for it. Recently had a pineapple shake and wasn't disappointed. Sit down take it to go, great soft serve

You get your order quickly and it is soo good!! Definitely recommend this place if your looking for a sweet treat.

They have a simple yet extensive menu. Came here for the first time and loved it. Got the hand dipped cone with nuts, super good! Will definitely be coming back to try the other menu items.

Every time I come by to fosters freeze I feel I've fallen back in time. The costumer service is always friendly as the staff is always polite. I get chocolate fudge Sundays for my father there as he's in the hospital TCU around the corner. It always cheers him up when I bring them by.

Been getting the brownie cherry for the past 10+ years. Drive back to Glendora every once in a while to try it and 3 times now for 2 years they haven't had anything cherry. Like what are you doing? Especially during summer! Stopped going to be disappointed

Old building but yummy malts. Service was quick and friendly. I had a vanilla malt with extra malt and it was good. I have not tried anything else at this location.

Love love love this ice cream! Very nostalgic and super tasty. The vibes are good and the place feels nostalgic. The ice cream is soft and airy. It reminds me of being a little girl. I recommend!!!

How this place has 4 stars is honestly beyond me. Started with us walking up to the window to place our order and the girls behind the counter or too busy talking with each other to even acknowledge. We existed for quite some time. Then when we did place our order the lady behind the counter did not repeat it. We ordered three items and when we got our order, they had gotten my ice cream incorrect and they didn't even apparently ring us up for my dad's or your float nor did they give us a receipt. When my sister mentioned it, the lady behind the counter freaked out and started yelling about how we didn't order that, when she had just repeated the order to begin with it we would've never been an issue. People need to learn how to have good customer service again and remember that the customers are the ones paying their paycheck. I've been in customer service for many many years myself and this is unacceptable. To make matters worse, the I'm assuming manager was behind the counter as well and he didn't even step in and really apologize for the issue or anything else. He just rung my sister up for the root beer, float and rolled his eyes at her when she asked for the receipt. If you are horrible at customer service, maybe you should just look for a job stocking shelves or something. Hopefully someone higher up see this message and be able to get these employees in line before they continue to bring the business down.

MOLD IN THE SAUCES AND POOR HEALTH/SAFETY: We ordered $40 of food/ice cream and found our marinara lined with mold about halfway through eating our food. Then the manager laughed at us for not wanting to be fed MOLD.

I loved how neat it was compared to other locations! The service was top tier and the signage was very clear! They actually have the options on the posters which is nice!! A decent amount of parking as well!

Great quick stop to cool down with an ice cream, shake, or grab a delicious burger and fries. Service was friendly, ambience was inviting.

How cute is this place? Makes me feel like I'm in a small small town that's not in California! I got the hot fudge milk shake & it was delicious! My brother got a regular vanilla cone and he's also mentioned that their fries are good here. I think it's a cute little date spot for dessert!

Best tasting ice cream around this city. It's a classic establishment and I hope it's around forever. Their vanilla soft serve it's a classic treat. The prices are so reasonable and the service is always awesome. Keep up the great work!

Super quick and tasty ! So many options to choose from and the staff is very friendly

Parking lot in the back but there's also sidewalk parking. They take credit card here! Classic ice cream. Oreo twist Is my go to. Also the strawberry cheesecake sundae! Fast service, so even if you see a long line it goes by quick! Love the chili cheese fries (just a bit overpriced for the amount you get). Cooked right when you order so it's nice and hot when you get it! So hot I almost burned my tongue with the chili!!

3/5 stars mainly for taste I've been craving a chocolate dipped soft serve cone, so I decided to swing by Foster's Freeze around 4PM today. The location has a small parking lot right in front of the ordering window and there were only a couple of other people in line. I went ahead and ordered a medium vanilla soft serve cone dipped in chocolate, which came out to $3.80. Upon first biting into the cone, I noticed that the chocolate shell sadly wasn't super flavorful. Normally it has a bit more of that magic shell type chocolate flavor, but this one mainly had texture. As far as the ice cream, the vanilla tasted a bit more artificial than other soft serve ice cream I've tasted. In the future, I will likely go to Dairy Queen for a cone, as their prices are similar but I prefer the taste of their chocolate dipped cones. My experience is solely based on the flavor of the cone, but if you're interested in trying one of their other menu items I would still give it a shot. The staff accurately took my order and prepared it very quickly. They were also all wearing masks and require that customers wear masks in order to be served.

Blink and you'll miss this soot while driving by. There was definitely more options to choose from than I thought at first. The Cherry Brownie sundae was delicious. It was JUST under $10 though and...for what we got...probably wont come back because that was just too much, good taste though

The recipe of the vanilla has change. Been going here for years but the quality has gone down. The color of the vanilla is also more yellow than it used to be. Didn't even finish it because it was that bad

[尋味LA]路邊棚有好漢堡 美國食物？除了牛排和燒烤之外你還能想到什麼？其實牛排也是燒烤，那麼還有些哈？我想無非是漢堡、三明治、披薩和熱狗了吧？ 我有很多朋友，到美國都帶著榨菜和方便麵，說是吃不慣美式快餐，更厲害地帶著電飯煲和熱得快，可以煮飯燒熱水，他們說美國的水都是冷的，喝了對身體不好。 最最誇張的是，有一隊朋友來自駕游，他們倒是沒帶榨菜方便麵電飯煲熱得快，他們只帶了一樣東西----火鍋底料，下了飛機拿了車後，第一時間買了個高壓鍋，然後一路買各種新鮮食材，一路涮著吃，吃完了也不倒掉，把蓋子一蓋，密封又不會灑出來。真是絶頂聰明的中國人，只要幾袋火鍋底料，就可以行走天下了；他們甚至在黃石公園的營地還請了老外一起加入，大家吃了個不亦樂乎。 有些朋友只吃中國菜，有些朋友隔段時間必須吃中國菜，二十多年前我有次在華盛頓特區出差，當時我和一位來自北京的同事在一起，一周後那位同事說「絶望得快崩潰」了，原因就是一周沒吃到米飯了。那時的特區與現在不同，不象現在到處都有中國飯，我只能陪著他去特區的唐人街，那是個又破又小的唐人街，尋了一大圈後總算找到一家廣式茶餐廳。我不記得他吃的是什麼了，我只記得我吃了碗鹼水味很濃的雲吞麵，一碗泛著阿摩尼亞味的雲吞麵，弄得我很難受，後來只能再加個漢堡來壓一壓。 什麼？美食家也吃漢堡包？ 成為美食家又不是受什麼懲罰，為什麼不能吃漢堡包？ 漢堡包多好呀！有麵包，有蔬菜，有醬料，最主要的，還有肉，有時還有蛋和魚，想想就很好吃呢！ 可是，我來了洛杉磯一年多，只吃了四次漢堡，原因是我太會做了，我每天都做好吃的，以至於都沒有時間去吃好吃的漢堡。四次當中有一次是吃的麥當勞，原因是很多人說上海的麥當勞比美國的好吃，於是特地去吃了一回；遺憾的是，真的沒有上海的好吃，不但沒上海的好吃，根本差了好多，原來我們本來吃著比美國都好的麥當勞，很有趣。 我有好幾個白人朋友，他們每次到上海都要吃肯德基，說是上海的肯德基比美國好吃太多了，而說美國都沒有辣雞腿漢堡，於是他們老是到上海來吃辣雞腿漢堡，這也正常，我還特地去過香港吃米漢堡呢！ 美國有沒有好吃的漢堡？當然有！你嘲笑美國的漢堡不如上海的好，這只能當個笑話來講，誰要當真，那就真的傻了；我要告訴你美國的豆漿比全上海全中國的好吃，有人會當真嗎？ 漢堡這種東西是沒有最好的，有人會去評中國最好的一百碗面嗎？不是面的類型，而是精確的某一家店的某一碗麵，排個名次，有人會這麼幹嗎？我想沒人會吧？ 美國人胃口好，真的有這麼個榜單（https://www.thrillist.com/eat/nation/best-burgers-in-america-burger-quest ，三十單：http://www.foodandwine.com/slideshows/best-burgers-us/ ），評一次一百個美國最好的漢堡已經夠神經了，他們居然年年都評，不是一百個，而是一百零一個（https://www.thedailymeal.com/101-best-burgers-america ），我實在無語了。 每個美國人心目中都有一個好漢堡，可以是Shake Shack，也可以是In-N-Out，也有的人會選麥當勞肯德基，我想還有更多的人會認為家鄉的不連鎖的小店最好吃，滿滿的童年回憶啊！ 我就碰到過這麼一位。 那是我們小鎮的漢堡店，於其說是店，我更想說那是個攤。他們倒是有幢房，平房，看著就象是一個大貨櫃，邊上竪著一牌大牌子，寫著店名。箱子裡是廚房，箱子外面是店中，人們都在外面等著拿漢堡。 箱子外面好象永遠有人在排隊，隊不長，二三個人，五六個人，但一直是有人排隊的。箱子有三個窗口，一個收銀，一個往外遞冷飲，另一個往外遞漢堡，玻璃是透明的，可以清楚地看到人們在裡面的操作。 有一次，我在那兒付了錢等漢堡，有位老人也在等，他說他們家吃了這家漢堡十幾二十年了，打他女兒小時候就吃；這天，就是為了大女兒特地開了十幾個英里到這裡來買的，他說大女兒只要吃這裡的漢堡，當然他們全家也都喜歡這家。他又說他大女兒是個怪人，為了保護動物居然不吃肉什麼的，所以他買了幾個葷的，還有一隻是素漢堡。 為了一隻素漢堡開十幾英里的路？我是不會為了一份素小籠這麼幹的，當然為了女兒也有可能例外。 「我小女兒就正常多了，什麼都吃。」那老人很健談，碰上我也是話癆，二個人象老朋友一樣聊著，邊聊邊看他們做漢堡。 做漢堡的是個隔間，料理台的右邊是塊大鐵板，不是日式鐵板燒的那種，而是傳統的美式煎肉餅的鐵板，鐵板浸透了油，一看就是再怎麼燒都不會黏住的那種，所謂有了「包漿」的。 我總是看著那個人把漢堡的麵包當中向下放在鐵鐵上烘著，再把肉餅和培根放在邊上烤，然後把肉餅翻個面，將起司放在肉餅上面，雖然聽不到，我的耳旁還是響起滋滋聲。我繼續看著他把麵包移到料理台上，舀點醬在麵包上，放上洋蔥、番茄和酸黃瓜，再放上肉餅，一塊、二塊，再是培根，然後是另一塊麵包。 那個人把漢堡放進一個紙袋中，拎著紙袋的二個角把漢堡甩起來，甩上幾圈，就變成了一個可愛的長角的紙袋，紙袋裡是我的Double Deck漢堡，聽著很洋氣，其實就是雙層肉餅漢堡。 他們的漢堡的確很好吃，肉餅香而多汁，培根脆，麵包鬆軟，洋蔥和番茄很新鮮，洋蔥是生的，份量恰到好處，有些許辛辣的「kick」，卻又只是一點點，隠隠約約的，吃著很舒服。 唯一的問題是那個漢堡太大了，我塞不進我的嘴，我又不捨得把如此鬆軟的麵包給捏癟了，這就有問題了。我只能上面啃一口下面啃一口，總算勉強把一隻漢堡吃完了。 我以後不點最大的Double Deck了，因為我還點了一份薯條，吃漢堡總要配薯條的，不是嗎？他家的薯條是粗條的，我喜歡。不管是粗的還是細的，最關鍵的是要脆，要脆而不硬，才好。他家的很符合好薯條的標準，不但脆而不硬，裡面還是松而軟的，相當好吃。 他們家還賣冷飲，各種聖代、蛋筒，量都很大也都很好吃，我也吃過一二次。 最後，告訴大家這家店的名字：Fosters Freeze。寫到這裡我去查了一下，這麼不起眼的小店居然是家1946年創始的老店，居然還有幾十家分店，Inglewood是他們老店，以後可以造訪一下。 我本來想寫「這就是我們小鎮的小店，我把店名告欣你，反正你也不太有可能去的」；現在變成「這家老店在洛杉磯有不少分店，找家近的去試試吧！」 網上用谷歌地圖看了一圈，好象都是破破的小棚子，我喜歡。 希望你也喜歡。

My family and I absolutely love this place. The only thing is that it costs $50 for ice cream for 4 people, which is kinda outrageous. Service was decent. Ambiance is nice, except when there are a lot of people.

Love the choices at Frosty Freeze!! Banana split is amazing. They have all different options and sizes which is prefect for the whole family.

Great food at a great price. Service is always great here. The food is really good here. But what sets them apart is their real ice cream shakes. You can almost get any flavor imaginable. Great place for a late night snack
