I watched Huell Howser and heard other glowing reviews of this place, (I thought worth making the trek from Glendale) but was thoroughly disappointed. I tried my regular favorite flavor - CHOCOLATE CHIP - and found Fossleman's absolutely tasteless. I struggled to taste any vanilla. I hoped for a thick and rich texture, but this was no better than a supermarket brand.
Maybe its other flavors are better, but as far as I'm concerned, they blew it. I will not be going back. I'll stick to Cold Stone or Baskin Robbins.

This family run business makes the best ice cream. The ice cream is so creamy and yummy. You will find flavors as interesting as pumpkin, taro and lemon custard. The prices are very reasonable.

I got the french vanilla on a whim and it was the best french vanilla ice cream I have ever had. No kidding. It somehow tasted a little like root beer! I might be crazy- but it's worth tasting to find out for yourself anyway. So good!!
Pros: Yummy Ice Cream!!

A few of my friends and I used to go to Fosselman's at least once a week. One of us, however, had a gift certificate for a half gallon of ice cream, so we decided to get a few of us together to go. We bought the ice cream and asked for some bowls. The OWNER of this establishment gave us a hard time about asking for free bowls, but we paid for the bowls and I even tipped him $0.40 or so. We then sat down to start eating ice cream, and in front of about 15 other people, he started yelling at us telling us that we couldn't eat in the store. The case evidently said "To go" somewhere, and why would he EVER let us buy a gallon and eat in his store. He can't charge 2.30 for an ice cream cone if everyone buys gallons.
During our usual weekly trips, we ALWAYS pay for the single scoop cones. We just thought we could use the gift certificate to enjoy some ice cream at our favorite ice cream place. I just didn't ever think I would be so humiliated in public for doing such a thing.
Pros: good ice cream
Cons: horrible customer service

This place is a family owned ice cream parlor that brings the good ole times back to life. It's small but comfortable and customer service is awesome. You can look at the historical pictures of the company on the walls and read about various articles. Ice cream is made inside the building and tastes GREAT! They offer tubs of any flavor that they sell.
Pros: Home made ice cream, booth seating, relaxed and homely atmosphere
Cons: small parking lot, too many great choices to choose from

Last time I went I had banana praline and classic strawberry. Both were authentically flavored without too much sickly sweet sugar and rich and creamy without that Ben and Jerry's comatose after-effect. The lines can be long, but the fun array of candies and topping available at the counter are well worth it. Skip the cold stone, this place is an institution for a reason.
Pros: ICE CREAM, Other toppings, Ambience
Cons: Long lines

If you're not familiar with this place, I highly suggest you check it out. They still make make ice cream there the old fashioned way. Not much has changed since they opened back in 1919 and have stayed true to their recipes. Friendly service and very reasonable prices. Best of all, great ice cream that rivals Haagen Daz!!
Pros: Delicious ice cream
Cons: only once location

This family-owned, old-fashioned ice cream shop is our favorite (with Mashti Malone's running a close second). Fosselman's has a wonderful selection of flavors, consisting of the old standbys (vanilla, strawberry) and the unique (taro, ube, lychee). For me especially, it wouldn't be summer without a once-a-week pilgrimage to get a scoop of the seasonal peach ice cream. Though it can get busy on Friday and Saturday evenings, the line moves fairly quickly and service is pretty efficient. Unfortunately, given the high butterfat content (which makes the ice cream sooo divine), Fosselman's ice cream would give the most committed calorie-counter pause. It really should be served with a side of a three-mile run or a rigorous yoga session.
PROS: Lots of flavors, late hours, efficient service
CONS:
