Hall Pass Ice Cream

Joel and Jose help me out, and I had some of the best service. I’m so happy and ice cream shop opened up in the neighborhood. I’ll be here all the time. Really good quality and great pricing

My friend and I visited this ice cream shop today at our lunch break and it was fantastic! We both Loved the ambience, the customer service was on point, and the ice cream was to die for. I had the churro ice cream and I loved it. 100 percent would recommend

Thanks Mexbarber barbershop in Santa Monica for recommending this place will be back soon God bless

Nice people good ice cream

Pretty good Icecream. I was there for their soft opening so tried couple of samples. I got the Cinnamon Churro brown sugar and that one hit the spot. I also tried this Coffee one which was recommended to me by one of the employees and yes he was right. It has a strong enough taste of coffee. However the rest didn't hit so much. I tried their French vanilla, cookies and cream and strawberry. They were all pretty bland. The employees were friendly and welcoming and inside you'll find a cute a locker set up on the side with photos of the owner and other displays. Nice small instagrammable spot. But good luck with parking. Its street parking and I parked on the residential side where I think you needed a permit but I could not find any other spot so o risked it and was pretty anxious the whole time so I left a little earlier cause I was too paranoid with the parking.

Reposting my legitimate review after it was mysteriously deleted! (Not by me). Hall Pass definitely nails the aesthetics the shop has a charming, nostalgic vibe with cheerful decor that's instantly Instagrammable. The staff was upbeat and friendly, and I appreciated the welcoming energy on opening day. Unfortunately, the ice cream itself didn't quite live up to the excitement. We tried 2 flavors: Chocolate Chip Cookie Brown Butter and Brownie Batter. Both sounded promising and indulgent, but the reality was pretty underwhelming I'd rate them around a 5 out of 10. Edible, but forgettable. Not something I would seek out. The Chocolate Chip Cookie Brown Butter, in particular, had so much potential! A flavor like that should be bold and buttery, but instead, it tasted more like vanilla with some chocolate chips mixed in. Similarly, the Brownie Batter was reminiscent of a basic chocolate, again with mini chocolate chips thrown in. Neither flavor delivered on its name. Even the texture was underwhelming. Certainly lacking in butter fat percentage. It just didn't have that creamy craveable oomph. Speaking of the chocolate chips they were the tiny, hard kind you might find in cheap store-bought cookies like Famous Amos and unfortunately, they didn't do the ice cream any favors. The texture was distracting (crunchy and waxy), and they didn't contribute much in terms of flavor. In a high-quality scoop, you'd expect elements like this to elevate the experience here, they were a detractor. If you're used to gourmet or artisanal ice cream, this probably won't hit the mark for you. But for those looking for a fun outing with kids for a quick sweet treat without a focus on a culinary experience, it might still be an enjoyable stop. All in all, I love seeing new local businesses pop up, and I hope Hall Pass continues to grow and refine their offerings, the foundation is there, but the ice cream needs more depth and character to stand out in a crowded artisanal market.

Honestly the best coffee ice cream I've had. It has a real depth of flavors. It actually gives a caramel taste as well. I wasn't fond of the gritty texture of the Brownie Batter. Even though batter is supposed to have grit in it. I just love chocolate ice cream and wish there was just chocolate flavored ice cream. Or better yet, dark chocolate! The other flavor I sampled was the Cajeta con Nuez. I was informed it was made with goat milk. Which was cool to try out. I am lactose intolerant so goat milk usually is fine for my stomach. It tasted different than the cows milk ice cream for sure. It was much lighter. When I first arrived, there was just a group of 4 ahead of me who were sampling practically the whole menu. Then a couple came in after me. We all were sampling at this point. And since I was on my break from work, and others were busy ordering for a while, and then new people came in and were tended to, I just decided to come back on my bday next Sunday 7/27. I think today was busy because it was the grand opening (bogo deal) and national ice cream day. If they plan to be busy, they should hire an extra set of hands per shift. It would help clients happier I believe. I'll be looking forward to trying out the Birthday Cake flavor along with Vanilla and Strawberry. If all that flops, I'll still be happy with the Coffee Toffee flavor! Maybe they'll even gift me for my bday. Haha we'll see (:

It has this fun, nostalgic vibe and the ice cream is genuinely great. It's from the team behind Flour Shop, Prince St. Pizza, and many other recognizable restaurants. The shop, which is right on Sunset Blvd before you head into Beverly Hills, is right next to Prince St. Pizza and Bar Next Door, which makes it a perfect spot to hit after a slice or a drink. They make all their ice cream from scratch and offer a mix of 10 core flavors plus a couple of seasonal ones. There's even a vegan option, which is a nice touch. On the menu: *Cookies N' Cream - Vanilla base swirled with chocolate cookie crumbles and packed with homemade chocolate chip cookies. *Birthday Cake - Vanilla base with chunks of buttery vanilla cake and dye-free rainbow sprinkles. *Chocolate Chip Cookie - Brown butter base layered with soaked chocolate chip cookies and fresh cookie chunks. *Strawberry Milkshake - Roasted strawberries blended into a super smooth, fruity ice cream. *Chocolate Brownie Batter - Chocolate base loaded with fudge brownie pieces. *Cinnamon Toast Churro - Cinnamon ice cream with candied Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal pieces. *Mint Patty - Peppermint vanilla base with chocolate drizzle and chunks of peppermint patties. *Chocolate S'mores - Chocolate base infused with graham crackers, chocolate ribbons, and mini marshmallows. *Coffee Toffee - Coffee base with crispy toffee bits. *Cajeta Con Nuez - Vanilla base with crunchy pecans and a swirl of cajeta, a rich Mexican caramel. *The Last Bite - Vanilla base with chocolate-dipped waffle cone pieces and dye-free rainbow sprinkles. *Vegan Chocolate Sorbet - Made with 100% dark cacao and dairy-free. Every flavor has its own personality and there is something for every type of ice cream person here. If you're already at Prince St. or just walking the Strip, don't skip it. Tip about parking- It is quite hard to find free parking but if you go into the residential, you will find some.

Hall Pass is a great new ice cream spot serving ip delicious scoops and great service by my guy Amir

The spot is really cute and I've been anticipating to try this place out as I work a block down. The employees are so nice and welcoming! They allow you to sample everything before buying which is nice. I think this place is worth checking out if you're in the area. The downside in the portion size is very small for the price. I feel like I can get the same quality and better selection of flavors elsewhere for almost $7. Try it out and judge for yourself!

Just had it and I haven't stopped thinking about since! The cinnamon churro was straight droooooool. The aesthetic is soooo cute! Such a throw back. And some of the friendliest staff ever.

Yum!! Super cute and really good ice cream. My fav is the coffee toffee with chocolate chips.

the store is very bright and cute and the reps are very welcoming and let you try as many flavors as you want. I liked the taste and texture of the ice cream. It felt old fashioned with high sugar and fat content! They are cashless and I had trouble finding the machine where you insert your credit card. I would suggest a machine that allows customers to insert their card in front of them right below the price displayed.

The chocolate chip cookie ice cream itself tasted good, however I was served approximately three bites of ice cream in my single scoop cup which costed $7. Absolutely not worth that price; please create standards with employees about what constitutes a single scoop of ice cream. I won't be back
