Love Hammond's, just wish portions were bigger. I first tried it in North Park, and I'm glad I got the time to swing by this one in Midway right by Phils BBQ (great dessert idea).
Stopped by on my day off, and enjoyed a flight of ice creams. No dogs inside, so I chilled in their only outdoor table enjoying the sun. They could really do with more seating options. I had hard time choosing what flavors I wanted, but I went with their Earl Grey shortbread, POG sherbet (a bestseller), and their Blueberry Cheesecake. OMG I could not pick a fave! I'm a hardcore cheesecake gal, so that was probably my fave because it really hit my dessert cravings for something rich. I feel like it's he best of both, I get my cake cravings filled and ice cream needs met. The earl grey shortbread was a close second. SO flavorful, and you can never go with anything earl grey flavored. Their POG was a great palette cleanser since it was so clean, tropical and delicious. I loved them ALL!
I love that after you eat at Phil's you can stop by Hammond's to really top off that diabetus meter. But parking is a-plenty, and even though the shop is small it's worth the visit. My fave ice cream spots in SD so far (the list changes, mind you) are Cali Cream, Salt n Straw, and Hammond's. Hammond's is 3rd for me because the scoops are smaller and their ice creams are not as creamy as I usually like my ice creams. But they have A++ flavors, diverse array of flavors, and fantastic idea of tasting ice cream flights.
