CREAM

After eating dinner at a city nearby, we decided we wanted some late-night dessert too. We went here on a Saturday around 12:20AM and there was a short wait! This icecream shop is VERY small, so it felt very crowded inside even with their lack of seats.

I was looking for something easy to eat, so I got a sundae. For their sundaes, you get to build your own and choose the type of toppings to go with it. We ordered the Cookie Sundae w/ Rocky Road Icecream to share. This icecream was good and I thought it was cool how it contained a bunch of Oreo cookie crumbs and also let me choose my choice of cookie to add on top, which I ended up choosing their Snickerdoodle cookie.

I'd recommend this place! I love how much variety they have. They sell other desserts ranging from icecream, cookie icecream sandwiches, sundaes, and icecream tacos too!

The five stars is for the Peanut Butter cookie. Each successful cookie store has at least one cookie which rises to legendary status:
- At NOX Cookies it is the chocolate chip.
- At Insomnia Cookies it is the vegan cookies.
- At Cream it is the peanut butter cookie. It was good enough to eat without any ice cream or milkshakes. I think that switching my ice cream to plain vanilla would still have gotten in the way of the salt and peanut butter.

Apparently, this is a popular dessert branch in NorCal. They specialize in ice cream and cookies.

I think my only issue was that Yelp and Google hours indicated that the shop was open, they had the open sign light on, and then there was a paper sign stating that they were closed and out on break but gave no indication on when they'd be back. We were actually so close to just going to Insomnia Cookies but when we were there, their online cashier system was down.

This was already after circling the area a couple times and it was during a con so we needed to get back, but in the nick of time, CREAM re-opened with their singular worker to help customers.

I got their mini chocolate chip cookies (2) with a small scoop of their salted caramel ice cream. This was a little over $4 and is a small snack size if you don't wanna down a huge dessert. The ice cream, despite being freshly scooped was already melting quickly. The cookies were a bit "harder" than what I would expect from "freshly baked" cookies.

Overall a bit mid, but maybe it was just an off weekend (though big L since it was during Fanime).

PS. Idk who is running their official website but you freaking embedded a link to a paper writing service. Not sure if that was on purpose lmao.

We tried the chocolate ice cream and the mint chocolate chip they make. It was delicious dark chocolate. Mint was very good as well, with nice dark chocolate chunks. We didn't bother trying the cookies or brownies because they didn't look very fresh when we went. This is a small, one employee shop. The girl gave us a free sample when we came in.

This is for the ice cream sandwich catering.

Wow. What a WONDERFUL treat! My husband and I decided to choose CREAM as our late night snack for our wedding because ice cream is my favorite dessert.

Until the day of our wedding, we communicated with CREAM about what we'd want. They gave us 3 flavors of cookies and ice cream to choose from and toppings.

We ended up choosing the chocolate chip cookie with vanilla ice cream, sugar cookie with strawberry ice cream and the snickerdoodle cookie with caramel ice cream. They delivered our ice cream sandwiches to the wedding early and EVERYONE loved them! It was the hit of the night. A bunch of people mentioned how awesome that idea was.

It made our wedding more memorable. Thanks CREAM San Jose!

3 stars because I remember this place being good, -2 stars though because online (both Yelp and Google) it says that it's open right now and on the door it has different hours posted.

We were craving cookies on a Sunday night, and initally stopped by Insomnia nearby, but they were closed for some emergency type of situation. So we ended up walking across the street to CREAM, knowing that they sell more than just ice cream here. Don't get me wrong, I love ice cream and I've had a nice helping of chocolate ON chocolate WITH chocolate here in the past (with their ice cream and cookie combinations), but I didn't realize how good their cookies alone were.

We got the double chocolate, peanut butter, and chocolate chip cookies, and they were served fresh and hot out the oven (at 9:45pm!!). The cookies were fantastic, full of flavor and melted chocolate, soft and delicious... No, CREAM did not have an extensive menu of unique cookie options like their competitors across the street, and yes they were very small and thin cookies, but they tasted phenomenal, and were cheap enough that I can't really complain.

CREAM is just a small space without seating, except a single table with two seats outside. But if you're willing to stand or take your goodies home, it's a great option to have for sweet treats in downtown SJ, and they're open late so that's a plus. Also, there is usually not too long of a wait whenever I visit, and the workers have always provided efficient and friendly service.

As a reminder, parking is almost non-existent downtown (unless you get lucky), so be prepared to walk a few blocks.

Decided to stop by because I had a sweet tooth. There was a little bit of a wait. I ordered a oatmeal cookie with strawberry icecream sandwich. The icecream was really good. The cookie was so hard. When I use to go to cream the cookies use to be warm and soft. It was late so maybe that could've been the reason. This place is small so you order to go.

They're known for their ice cream sandwiches, but their ice creams are SO GOOD!!! ($$$$ Pricey, but good $11/pint) Their vanilla is one of THE BEST I've had!

Best way to enjoy Cream is to buy (2) pints of their ice cream. (We like vanilla.) Then you'll need (2) dozen mini freshly baked cookies. (We like to get snickerdoodle + chocolate chip). You now have endless ice cream sandwiches ! $$$$ It's pricey though. This set up will cost you $50! However, you have some for the next several days, not just one shot.

I've ordered via DoorDash & the cookies arrive warm & the ice cream super frozen. If you don't feel like going downtown, they'll come to you.

Variety of options to choose from, ice cream and cookie sandwich, ice cream in two different cones, ice cream shake. The staff was nice enough to put a cherry on top of an ice cream scoop per my child's request. I tried the strawberry ice cream and tbh it was a really good flavor. I got rocky road ice cream and it was loaded with mini marshmallows and super tasty. Would definitely recommend this place.
