Hosting an event with Koolfi Creamery was one of the best decisions I’ve made all year. I look to support women and minority-owned small businesses as much as possible, so they came highly recommended when I was in search of an ice cream vendor for my department event. Priti and team did not disappoint – they were so easy to work with and took the stress out of event planning for me. The hardest thing was deciding on four flavors! All to die for! I highly recommend them for your next team event!

Love all the flavors here!
We got double scoops of cherry, mango, watermelon sorbet, and guava chili.
The cherry seasonal flavor was sooo good. It’s fresh, with nice chunky cherries inside.
Guava chili is subtle chili flavor and it’s so good and fruit forward. Loved this too.
Classic mango you can’t go wrong.
Watermelon sorbet wasn’t too icy and was really flavorful.
Looking forward to coming back and trying more flavors!

My favorite ice cream in San Leandro today I ordered the cinnamon bourbon salted caramel and dates and figs, both seasonal flavors. I could taste the high quality ingredients and love and care they put into their ice cream, and it made it feel worth it for the price
The owners are lovely too – they truly care about their products as well as the community surrounding the area where the creamery is.
I also loved the outdoor seating! ☀️

Your Local neighborhood Craft Creamery…
I gotta agree the high ratings with Koolfi Creamery has. The two owners are very warm and welcoming. They are very pleasant, friendly and patient, akin to your favourite aunt…
The venue doesn’t have a lot of space inside, most definitely an issue if a big party comes in. There is a decent amount of room outside, but if the weather is not favorable, also a bit of an issue. I’m a big fan of the the Ice Cream here. Lots of unique Indian inspired / fusion flavors. A good healthy selection as well. If you don’t know what you want or wish to try multiple flavors order an Ice Cream flight. You get 5 flavors! In addition to Ice Cream they also serve additional snacks.
Definitely worth checking out…

Server was rude and did not ask if I wanted to put it to go or not. I was eating with my group of friends and we split ways to order but the guy asked if I was bringing the flight ice cream box back which I already was going to anyways???? Hello?? I wanted to help a local ice cream parlor and this is the mistreatment I get.
The flight I selected was not even that amazing compared to the reviews and ratings. There was no one at the shop and the measly sandwich costed $12-$13.50 to which the male server said was “spicy”, it was not even spice at all.
The only decent flavor was the banana flavor which I could get anywhere else. I had to chase my tongue with banana flavor to reset my palate each time I tried their other four new flavor on the flight I ordered for $15. What a waste of $$$ and time to come after disc golfing with friends.
The food across the street smelled so much better and actually tasted good !

Wow!! Wish I could give 10 stars! We got flights of mini scoops of almost every flavor and each one stands out. Cardamom, mango lassi, strong chai, guava w red chili, classic koolfi, paan “licorice,” salted caramel w ghee fudge, rose and lotus, pumpkin w ginger snaps, even their cookies and cream was unlike any I’ve ever had. The flavors are creative and delightful, well balanced, and delicious. What a treat!! Plus it’s all handmade and queer-owned.

Amazing flavors and quality! We like to visit at different times of year to try the limited / seasonal flavors; cherry has been a favorite in the past. They are not the cheapest, but the quality is worth the price.
They do events too – we love them so much that we booked them for our summer wedding. Booking them for an event (especially a wedding) is pretty high bang for buck compared to other event vendors!

Cozy ice cream shop and cafe! Guava ice cream with hint of chilly was nice. Gulab jamun sundae was delicious – topped with dried rose petals and pistachios. Samosas were just fine. Felt expensive for the portions and quality.
They have some inside seating and ample space outside as well.

Delicious ice cream with Indian-inspired flavors. The shop sells scoops, cones and pints, plus a few non-ice cream items.
At the time of my visit there were two vegan non-dairy flavors. You can also choose between regular waffle cones and vegan gluten-free dosa cones.
There is a small patio outside with benches, and very limited seating inside.
Street parking only.
My favorite flavor (so far) is the strawberry with tamarind balsamic. It has delicious strawberry flavor, with tanginess to balance the sweetness. Unfortunately I ate it all before taking a photo.
Note for folks with allergies, a sign says: “We are a family owned small business. All our ice creams are churned on the same equipment that processes dairy, eggs, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, and soy. We wash thoroughly between flavors, but cross-contamination is possible. We also specialize in Indian flavors and mixing Indian desserts that typically contain nuts and dairy. Proceed at your own risk if you have any allergies.”
