My roommates and I used to have a ritual of stopping here to get ice cream on our way back to Sacramento for the weekends. How long ago? Too many years to mention. Their ice cream has a rich creamy texture that has been consistent. My favs are the Turkish Coffee, Strawberry Sorbet, Coffee Mocha, Lemon Chiffon, Bordeaux Cherry and the swiss Orange Chip!!! Yes they are a chain, but one of the few that makes their ice cream in house. Mitchell's is great too, but there's something about this place and it's history for me since the sixties. Review #19277

This will cheer you up for sure: Fresh Banana ice-cream. It really tastes like frozen, creamy banana. I also love the Orange-Chocolate ice-cream. If you're lucky, your order will be FREE if your receipt shows a red star! I've gotten it twice already. This kind of luck probably related to my parking karma. Review #18078

Holy Christmas!, now that is some really good ice cream. No wonder they are a San Francisco institution. I have lived in SF for almost 10 years and never tried the place. What a mistake. Wherever you live in the city, it is well worth the trip- the most amazing ice cream shop ever! Very tough neighborhood to find parking, shocking I know, but well worth the effort. Review #16974

I've been eating Swensen's ice cream for over 20 years. There was one in Saratoga where I lived and I never knew the original one was in the city. I go here about once a month and try to give equal time to my other favorite ice cream places. Review #15351

While its not as good as I remember when I was a kid, I still enjoyed it. Great stop when you are ridding the 45 bus across town. Also a fun place to meet some interesting people. Review #14836

Their ice cream is hard to resist, but I am also a fan of their full dining menu, which you have to travel to Miami, Singapore, or Malaysia to get... Review #12279

This is one of those things you have to force yourself to do from time to time--like going barefoot in the grass. It will put a smile on your face, if only on the inside. Review #8861

Swensens is one of those old school spots that still has appeal. It's a SF institution which offers great ice cream and shakes. Mitchel's is Mitchel's, but Swensens has some wonderful offerings. Review #6539

MUST TRY! Swensen's is ice cream for the people that love an ice cream experience. Most people get a cone or a half-gallon, but if you get a red star on your receipt, you get $5.00 free. Review #1016
