Baskin-Robbins in Alameda

Ice cream cake has been our birthday treat.  Living in the island for almost 5 years, we have not come to this shop for an ice cream cake.  We decided to give it a try.   The staff was so patient with me for my questions such as design, flavors, and pricing.  I Ended up getting a 6" two-flavor all ice cream cake ( good for 4 adults and 2 little kids).  It turned out great and we were so pleased with the flavors, design, and the cost. We will have another birthday coming up in two weeks. We will be back!

Baskin Robbins brings me back to my childhood...waiting on that birthday coupon for a free scoop and tasting half the options before I could decide which flavor :) This year, I got one of their gorgeous ice cream cakes! My a unicorn cake was mint chocolate chip on top of a chocolate cake and OMG was it to die for !!! It was so good! But also, cost a little over $50, so not something we'll be getting again anytime soon. We also tried a fruit smoothie and got a double scoop recently, and I must say, I'll be getting a single scoop from now on, it was huge! And so good, of course.

Came in today,. 9/6/2021 Labor Day @6:20 pm. There was only one other customer inside and she was buying a cake. There were 5 employees in the store and just my luck, I get the one withe the f'ed up attitude. I'm pretty friendly, older and I utilize a lot of restraint dealing with some of these young people who were raised in a different kind of household, or want to test the customer to see if one will jump over the counter. This chick who's very short with the extensive false eyelashes, has nothing but pure attitude and rolled her eyes. Who needs the drama for 2 scoops of ice cream for $6.69?
