Get you some amazing vegan soft serve flavors, especially the Coconut Ube

Anytime that I visit a new city, one type of eatery always near the top of my search is ice cream. Is a city even worth visiting if they don't have great non dairy ice cream options? With that being said, I am happy to report that indeed .. San Diego is now deemed officially worth visiting 🤗 (just in case you were awaiting my official permission before buying that plane ticket ✈️, you're welcome!) :).

I have every faith there's multiple great places in the greater San Diego area where to find great non dairy ice cream but there's one, North Park Creamery, that caught my attention above and beyond all, why ... soft serve, Coconut Ube ice cream, that's why .. very ... very intriguing!

They are located in the (wait for it...) North Park area (seems logical enough lol) and are dangerously close to an Insomnia Cookies location just across the street lol. They offer a nice variety of flavors, the most unique of which (to me) was easily the Coconut Ube flavor. The environment was a bit dark so I did have to brighten my picture to faithfully capture all of the ice cream cone glory lol. You know the line in Star Wars "that's no space station", well, "that's no ice cream cone" .. it was like a death star of ice cream cones except the only thing this death star was conquering was my cravings (you're welcome, Alderaan). Huge, just huge ice cream cone with a vegan labeled cone (nice touch!), super creamy with a flavor that was out of this world. Sandi opted for the Strawberry Dole Whip and Vanilla twist and, she wasn't wrong in her choice, she just didn't happen to be quite as "right" as I was in mine :).

So, what are you waiting for, check them out! Go across the street, grab you an Insomnia cookie (or two...) and together with your ice cream well, remember ... what happens in San Diego stays in San Diego (except if you drip and stain your clothes with ice cream, that might be coming home with you).

Pros: soft serve ice cream, great flavors like Coconut Ube, right across the street from Insomnia Cookie

Soft serve!!

It’s so difficult to find soft serve vegan ice cream (not froyo.) I LOVE the vegan Ube-coconut flavor! They usually offer 3 vegan flavors at a time along with vegan waffle cones and bowls and vegan hard chocolate topping. This place has a fun vibe to hang at. They also offer specialty coffees.

Vegan Ice Cream & Cones

North Park Creamery has two vegan flavors, a vegan (and gluten-free) cone and vegan chocolate for a dip. The flavors today (4/4/23) were coconut ube and pineapple dole whip. You could also swirl the flavors. I opted for the dole whip, and the flavor was excellent! It’s been years since I have had the Disney version, so I cannot compare. The texture was not as creamy as I would like (or as I remember others being), but I still ate the whole thing.

I wish they had more vegan options, but it’s a decent option. For reference, Hammond’s down the street has a few more options but no vegan cone (to my memory) and is mainly sorbets besides vegan chocolate.
