Flavors like white chocolate lavender and black sesame will tingle your tongue , but first try the famous Secret Breakfast flavor, a bourbon-based vanilla ice cream with clusters of cornflakes .  Read more

Adrian Phillips

I discovered the Toast & Jam flavor at this location in the Ferry Building Marketplace . It's bits of cake with jam in sweet, creamy vanilla like ice cream . Double scoop? Pair it with malted chocolate

SFist

Treat yourself to a "Harvey Milk & Honey " flavored scoop of ice cream goodness. Those with super hip palates will enjoy the McEvoy Olive Oil , Salt and Pepper , or Strawberry Candied Jalapeno flavors. Read more

Jessica Wickham

Brilliant and different flavour. My favourite is Secret breakfast ice cream - bourbon and cornflake inspired! Need I say more!

Maddy Cooke

When in the Ferry Building - go get an ice cream here. No questions! Excellent ice cream - Blue Bottle Vietnamese gives you the best of two store.

Saint Matteo

Make sure when you get in line look at the menu. The current flavors are all on the wall. They change and if you like, you can take some home. Just make sure you go straight home

Divya Mulanjur

Amazing flavours, not too sweet, soft creamy ice cream . Go for the secret breakfast or Vietnamese coffee or peanut butter fudge . Yum!

Hefe Hofo

the milky tea and peanut butter flavors were so good I went there the next day and tried others. Also perfect. However, the staff seemed annoyed, as in any other chain in the US I've been to.

Taylor Lee

With incredible views at the Ferry Building, you'll want to take a picture before you scoop up some secret breakfast (bourbon and cornflakes ).

Brian Sperduto

Secret Breakfast is excellent. Be warned, the urge to eat it quickly will be strong, given how good the ice cream is, but resist. That way lays only brain freeze and an empty cup.

Noah Lucas

I don't want to say the Blue Bottle Vietnamese Coffee flavor will change your life, but imagine a glorious explosion of taste and finding perfect happiness in a pint.

Lears Fool

Some people scoop small, some big. Say "still thinking" and let the next person go if you get the wrong type of scooper for you. And yes, Secret Breakfast FTW

Cynthia Lin

Skip the line and go for the ice cream sandwiches !! Vietnamese coffee one is great! Amazingly they aren't a mess to eat! Cookies are just soft enough

Charles M

The best ice cream I've ever had in my life. Secret Breakfast was just so irresistible!

Secret breakfast is the way to go. Those caramelized corn flakes 🙏

Milad Cerkic

Excellent ice creams with unusual names and flavors 🤙

Mario Lin

The secret breakfast is gold. Whenever I'm in the city , I make an effort to come here. fav ice cream hands down!

Mikahla Vicino

Drink your blue bottle coffee from next door and then grab a blue bottle coffee ice cream cone - just can't get enough of the stuff.

Christina

Like everyone else has said: Vietnamese coffee and secret breakfast are delicious.

Christina HyunJung Jung

My favorite flavor is secret breakfast, blue bottle Vietnamese coffee and ancho chocolate . So good good. try!!!!!! hurry !!!

Faith Xu

For some reason, the ice cream tastes better/different outside, so step outside to enjoy your ice cream in the fresh air . :)

Al B.

Excellent ice cream here with interesting flavors to choose from. Choose the Bourbon and Cornflakes !

Timothy Lee

Smooth & creamy texture while bringing the wild flavors makes for a perfect ice cream treat!

Ken Baldwin

Okay so the Ferry Building is a great place to get lunch . This is the best ice cream in SF - don't let anybody tell you otherwise. seriously

Allison Abbott

Secret breakfast! May be sold out by late afternoon, so go ahead and make it your choice for breakfast. No shame, friend.

Kathy Liu

Secret breakfast with bourbon caramel sauce is delicious

Karla

You've waited in line while others sampled flavors, so don't be ashamed to try a couple :-) but it's all pretty damn tasty!

Sarah Mitroff

You can't go wrong with any if the flavors, but the chocolate smoked sea salt is out of this world.

Jeremy Krantz

Their flavors change frequently and you pretty much can't go wrong with just about any of them

Rain Rannu

Possibly the best ice cream in the world! (Maybe only Hää Kraam in Estonia comes close)

C C

Wasn't sure we'd like Secret Breakfast based on ingredients but it def lives up to the hype. Also Vietnamese coffee

Charlene Naughton

Any place that will top your ice cream with olive oil and sea salt is AOK in my book .

Island Bruin

Really excellent and unusual flavors- take advantage of the free tastes, because the names are obscure

Alex Gonzalez

Vietnamese Coffee and Secret Breakfast are amazing. In that order.

_

Humphry's is known for their secret breakfast, but my favorite flavor is Blue Bottle 's Vietnamese coffee !

Chris

Vietnamese Coffee and Secret Breakfast were both top notch.

Jenn Y

Candy Capp Ice Cream made with Candy Capp mushrooms from Far West Fungi

Duehie Lee

If you choose secret breakfast, take cup rather than corn . It's very soft!!

Omar Velázquez

The Bourbon Caramel topping is a must.

Craig Villamor

It's all good. Secret Breakfast is the one everyone talks about. For good reason.

Flora Morrow

The servers need to take a smiling workshop! Excellent at the blind stares. No complaints in that department.

Danielle

Loved the secret breakfast ice cream ! Really inventive flavors.

Joe Gramc

There are many great flavors, try the most unique you can find. You will thank me later.

Chris H.

It's funny how pretentious the workers are, as if they know they have the best ice cream in the city .

Cynthia S

Tried the Malted Dulce de Leche...amazingly rich and creamy. I was in ice cream heaven!

Hemant J

The secret breakfast bourbon ice cream is too good to ignore.

Grace Yoon

Blue bottle Vietnamese coffee + secret breakfast. SO GOOD ;-;

Rouven Weßling

No normal flavors to be found here - but amazing unique creations like “banana , walnut , beer “.

Josh E.

Get there before the afternoon or else they're likely to have run out of the flavors you wanted to try.
