The Best Places to Eat and Drink in Santa Cruz, California | Eater SF

"Along with business partner Zachary Davis, former Manresa pastry chef Kendra Baker created a beloved local institution with this ice cream shop that features seasonal scoops made from scratch and served in homemade waffle cones. True to Santa Cruz ethos, Davis and Baker source ingredients from more than 40 local farmers and foragers for flavors such as strawberry pink peppercorn and cardamom coconut blackberry. Just be sure to top it with toasted marshmallow fluff. Find locations in downtown and Pleasure Point." - Paolo Bicchieri

If you’re coming out of Humboldt Park, Penny Ice Creamery is the stop you didn’t know you needed. It’s a quick hop off the road and absolutely worth it. The ice cream is rich, creamy, and honestly some of the best I’ve had in Northern California.

I had the Bourbon Peach with the Bitter Caramel with toasted almonds...it felt like little meal. I love savory so this combo was perfect. Friendly service as well.

This ice cream is just not good. It is icy and lacks flavor. The only redeeming quality was the marshmallow fluff as it covered up for the lack of flavor in the ice cream. It is over priced and not good. Save your money. Youre better off going to a Baskin Robbins or a Coldstone.

Very good local creamery. Definitely get the fluff. which is a toasted marshmallow topping.

We had the dark chocolate (non-dairy) ice cream which was very delicious. They had a variety of flavors and vegan options

Mint chip is sooo good. Like crushing a handful of fresh mint in your hand and inhaling. Oh, and chocolate too :-)

This is the one. If you subscribe to high quality ice cream, you’ve found home. Epic taste and freshness!

I am not sure how I end up at one of their locations every time I am in the area. Perhaps it has to do with it being a local store with ice cream and toppings that are unique and delicious. I am absolutely addicted to their caramel sauce.

You may have to wait a little, but totally worth it. Highly recommend toasted marshmallow topping.
