Scoops is famous for coming up with incredible new flavor combos that they think up themselves and get as suggestions from loyal customers.

Two favorites include Brown bread (caramelized Grape Nuts) and dairy-free salted Oreo (one of a number of vegan options)

And the best part is, "it's cheaper than most fro-yo place," says Gogobot reviewer Molly M.

Little Man makes its ice cream in small batches, serves it in home made cones, and is affordable enough that you won't feel bad about going back the next day for another scoop.

And it gets bonus points for its location: a giant, old-fashioned milk can.

Marianne’s is a family-owned Santa Cruz institution, open for nearly 70 years.

It's famous for a huge selection: 100 flavors of ice cream.

Examples include spumoni (rum ice cream with fruit compote swirl) and macapuno (coconut ice cream with baby coconut string).

Then there's flavors like lavender, cardamom pistachio, and "Hwy 17" Rocky Road, named for the highway that connects the ocean town of Santa Cruz with the southern San Francisco Bay Area.

Jeni’s gourmet ice cream flavors are inspired from a sense of time and place, like snow-covered trees in winter, sun-blanched beaches, or a Southern wedding.

Gogobot reviewers rave about brown butter almond brittle, the "world's milkiest chocolate" and also dark chocolate, wildberry lavender, pineapple upside down cake and ice cream sandwiches like chocolate truffle with backyard mint.

As far as nostalgic Cape Cod experiences go, ice cream at the Four Seas in the summertime has been a classic for more than 80 years.

And if you keep your eyes open, you can often catch a celebrity or two enjoying a scoop with their kids after a day at the beach.

Molly Moon’s is known as a place where families, friends and ice cream lovers gather to enjoy the world-class flavors and waffle cones.

This shop is also known for its creative seasonal offerings like strawberry sorbet with balsamic glaze, maple walnut, Earl Gray, Thai tea, and black sesame.

The single scoop is so huge, one Gogobot reviewer says you can ask them to "halve" it, so you can try two flavors with that one scoop.

Carmela had been selling “artisan ice cream” at local farmers markets for years and recently, it opened a tiny shop for enjoying a scoop anytime, or bringing home a pint.

Carmela is also known for sorbet. Flavors include meyer lemon olive oil, lavender honey, cucumber sorbet, Guinness, salted caramel, dark chocolate with cacao nibs, or fresh mint with cacao nibs.

The ice cream flavors at Salt & Straw are inspired by the weird and wonderful city it calls home.

Where else would you find blue cheese in ice cream (as part of a pear and blue cheese flavor)? Or sea urchin (as part of sea urchin meringue)?

And also true to Portland’s ethos, the ingredients are locally sourced and organic.

San Francisco residents love ice cream and among those in the know, Bi-Rite stands out.

It has unique flavors (honey lavender, salted caramel, roasted banana, and balsamic strawberry), everything is homemade including the toppings, and it uses locally sourced organic milk.
