Liked my Sundae a lot. A large variety of flavors and types of ice cream - in a cone, in a donut, sundae. The place is also very unique and cool which adds some interesting mix to the area. Not too much room to sit though in the two benches that are available - especially given that it gets quite busy.
Afters ice cream shop is my favorite because of its classical look and location. Its a small shop which look more like gas station😝 but believe it, its taste and quality are awesome. Always busy and have queues and quite famous in locality and students. They have limited parking space but fully compensated with green street roadside parking.
Love this place. Such a fun and simple concept and so unbelievably yummy. I like to get the non-glazed milky bun with the Cookie Monster ice cream and fruity pebbles topping. Sometimes I just get the ice cream and a topping cos the bun is pretty sweet. Also I love the old gas station vibe of this place, it’s so chill and charming.
I had never been there before and there was a line. The menu was interesting and the ice cream was okay but the people who worked there were 100% AMAZING!!Extremely patient and friendly. You can see that they loved where they worked so very nice because it reflects and made my experience a spectacular one 🤗
Probably the best ice cream Ive ever had. Amazing flavors, endless mix and match options! And on top of that, nice staff and awesome atmosphere.
Double Charged - Completely Melted Ice Cream - Rude Employee - No Resolve...So, I basically just payed $97.50 for 3 pints and 3 single scoops of melted ice cream. No apology. No resolve. The rude employee tells me Ill need to settle it with my bank...even after I showed them the deduction in my account. Ive been a happy and loyal customer of Afters Ice Cream in Pasadena, Alhambra and Highland Park for a long time. I couldnt believe how poorly this was handled. And now Im out $100 bucks for the rest of this three day weekend until Tuesday when my bank opens and I contact them. The Afters employee couldve at least given me frozen ice cream instead of melted soup. I mean, even after all that drama I still tipped them seven bucks.
1st time here and ice cream was good, not many selections
First time visiting this 🍦 spot, the area is clean they have the most popular ice cream displayed at the cashier window top side 🪟, the staff allows only 3 samples of ice cream so pick wisely and enjoy, the cookie monster caught my attention.It was very delicious and right on point 👉 with the warm weather, the staff was very helpful and patient, definitely being a fist timer you tend to ask more questions. But overall i recommended you try this creamery out when youre in the area, i will definitely come back to try diffrent flavors.
Very tasty creations. Small little shack sized building with very friendly people working there. The area gets crowded quick because its small and popular. Worth a visit!
What a cute little place! Can’t imagine a better old-gas-station-makeover! Got Jasmin milk tea flavor and it was delish! Never had jasmin flavor ice cream before. The sweet buns looked freshly baked — will have to try that next time. Service was super good as well despite the influx of customers. Outdoor seating available!
Really great ice cream shop. Good ice cream and shakes. The ice cream sandwich is on a sliced donut! Really good.
Flavor selection is great and you get to add toppings to your liking. This location has some cool gas pump features in the front and a few tables.
Genius ice cream!! Firstly, the ice cream and donut fusion is remarkable. They really pulled it off folks!! Nice warm glazed or non-glazed donut option that is essentially a donut pita. The amazing custom ice cream or yogurt is then placed in the donut pita. Secondly, the ice cream 2as super fresh, flavorful and delicious!! Lastly, the building, outdoor seating and overall designed is very thoughtful, just like the products!!
They refused to sell me ice cream, because I wasnt wearing a mask, outdoors, in the sunshine, on a windy day.
I have gone here multiple times and am satisfied with each visit. The ice creams are so flavorful and creamy without being overly sweet/rich/heavy.If I had to rank all the flavors that Ive had so far:1. Jasmine milk tea2. Salted oreo3. Milk and cereal4. Dark matter brownieThe dark matter brownie isnt bad. The brownie/chocolate flavors just werent very strong (see: ben & jerrys chocolate fudge brownie). I still enjoyed it and recommended it to friends, but afters definitely has better flavors. The jasmine milk tea straight up tastes like a jasmine milk tea drink from a great boba place that uses strong tea.
Good, but there is just a few tables outside, so maybe not great if youre wanting a sitdown experience.
This place is awesome anybody who does not give it a four-star or higher is crazy.. the lady who took our order really was very patient with us our first time being there did not know how we order, within 20seconds we had our fantastic creamy strawberry crunch . Yummmmmmmmmm....BTW there is a nice Fig tree Free for our picking near... Love Pasadena
Delicious Thai milk tea ice cream. However, its a splurge at $4.75 for one scoop. Courteous staff. Nice overall experience
Guy was extremely rude since we didn’t have mask. Told us there was a sign which there wasn’t plus they had seen we had been standing there for 15 minutes already waiting for them to come back to the stand. I have never once had a problem at this location. But if the mask was a problem a little respect could have been given and it could have been handled differently. They lost business because of this as well. I will not tolerate someone being rude then giving my business
For my first visit, I ran into this place on accident, I dont eat much ice cream any more because, most ice places are to sweet or to creamy, this place knows there ice cream, clean very cool decor. very fair on price vs quality. 5 stars from. cant wait to go back,
Came here today and was refused service because I didn’t have a mask, I didn’t think it was needed to order since it’s outdoors. I had been standing there for awhile and was never told anything nor did I see a sign saying “mask required” or else I would’ve went to go get one. I was even standing far away from the ordering window. I didn’t think it was fair since I had been waiting and there was not a sign, if this ice cream shop was so big on mask being required they should have a sign like any other place. I left since I wasn’t going to wait in line again.
Line was insanely long but decent ice cream with good flavors.
Cookie Monster ice cream stuffed in a doughnut is delicious !!!
I’ve been to a lot of ice cream places over their years and Afters absolutely floored me. Before going vegan I used to love ice cream and still love it as a vegan, but have never really had any that stopped me in my tracks - that’s changed with the Chocolate Chip Cookie flavor. I’ll be back to get a pint after my single scoop last night, that I almost went back and got another hahah.Plus, I love that their merch is all knock off of popular street wear brands.
Amazing flavors and a great stop for a late night icecream
Their cookie monster and milk & cereal ice cream are really delicious! Also recommend the Afters flakes
Some ice creams are excellent, but boy they’re slow! It’s only a single person serving and there’s always a line.
Worth trying for sure. The milky buns are just doughnuts without holes. Would definitely recommend for ice cream if you havent been here before.
Very overpriced! More than 5 dollars for one scoop on a come! The portions are tiny! Only Two vegan options, chocolate chip and mango sorbet. If you look up vegan ice cream shops, this comes up, but there are only two choices.
If you want a heavy dose of sugary sweet... Youve come to the right place.
They got my order wrong but it was Soo good I dont care! Mango sorbet and gummies is the bomb!
Jasmine milk tea and frozen hot chocolate are both great flavors!
Good mix of flavors and toppings without being overwhelming. Ice cream tasted fresh and not too sugary
Not a lot of choices but what they have is very good, I tasted several and the girl was extremely helpful explaining the flavors and choices!! I got a waffle cone with frozen hot cocoa on top with Cookie Monster on the bottom.....both were amazing and I loved that Cookie Monster was blue!! I would certainly go back!!!!
This is my favorite ice cream place to go to. My favorite ice cream there is the Cookie monster. I really love when they do pop-up shops too. I got a really cool Rick and Morty shirt from there for my son. its wheelchair accessible, theres buses nearby, places to sit and eat or just drive up and order and leave.
Very Delicious fresh handcrafted ice cream! The vanilla taste beautiful!
Cute place! Super friendly service. Great flavor recommendation from the staff of Cookie Butter.
Great ice cream just a little pricey
Ummm, the cutest spot ever! And if you get a chance, try the seasonal flavors. I love the “half n half” option so it gives you a chance to try two different flavors!Ugh. I was going to upload some pics but I forgot. I ate all of it. But I had the frozen hot cocoa and the strawberry cereal mix. Delish. Also had a sample of my friend’s cup and he got the Santa cookie mix. Yum!
Dude they are soooooo slow. For having so many customers, I hope they hire more people. It’s kind of disappointing. Being in that tiny box, hopefully they expand.
Good ice cream, open late
They have the best vegan ice cream I have ever enjoyed! My kiddo is a fan of the Cookie Monster flavor. The bun is pretty amazing, as well. Become part of the Anti Diet Diet Club and get some Afters!
We love Afters! Its our tradition to go AFTER we visit The Huntington Library. The staff is always nice and efficient. Its a small building, so only one employee is usually there. They make your order as soon as it is placed and move onto the next customer once theyre done. If youre in a hurry, I wouldnt recommend stopping here for that reason. But, I promise if you do, you wont regret it.Get the milky bun! Its literally heaven in your mouth. I always get the vanilla with oreo. Cuz Im boring with my ice cream haha.
Terry the lavender milk tea ice cream
Delicious! Cant say much else. The toppings and flavors of ice cream they offer are great.
Mediocre ice cream for the price. I got the cookie monster sundae, son got the milk and cereal. The Vietnamese ice cream was good. Idk if Ill go back or recommend it. Cool spot tho, converted old gas station near PCC. Has potential.
They had run out of waffle cones, (that was disappointing to say the least) but everything else was 🔥
The ice creams were really good!!!
Original flavours and very tasty
They had 2 vegan options, i had the java chip with waffle cone, very good. A popular is the donut with ice cream in the middle. I ate my whole cone, which is rare because I dont eat much ice cream so definitely come and support this little 50s looking ice cream joint ice🍦🍨
My husband doesnt like sweets but, we are both hooked on this place. I personally like the cookie monster with cookie crisps. Menu is simple. They have warm glazed donuts if you opt not to have a cone or cup. Tasty! Definitely not for the diet conscious ... sometimes you just got to live a little! Very Cali classic as it is a stand with outdoor seating only. Well be back!
Jasmin milk tea single scoop in a cup is all you will ever need.No more, no less #yumm
Delicious as always. I love the mango sorbet in a waffle cone. If you are feeling daring, ask them to sprinkle with mini Gummi bears.
I didnt try the ice cream because its 4 dollars a scoop Id personally rather buy ice cream by the bulk at Ralphs because its 2 large cartons of ice cream for 5 dollars so you get more bang for your buck. Although I found Afters Ice Cream very cool because of their 50s style decor and they had good music playing at an appropriate volume.
Sooo good!! This spot is super cute too!
WOW!! I’ll write more when I get back from my ice cream high
Very delicious ice cream with very friendly staff. A little pricey but definitely worth coming to with friends or loved ones.
I swear this ice cream is worth every penny! Also the hot chocolate is the most luxurious hot chocolate I have ever had in my life!The milk buns go very well with the flavors!The buns are light and not doughy!PUT IT ON YOUR :MUST TRY LIST
Milky buns... warm donuts, cold ice cream. Always yummy
Quality summer-time treat! Retro feel. Love this place
It was great! I recommend the milky bun.
Recently went there first time experience I asked the girl that was working what type of ice cream is the blue ice cream she said its cookie whip I have no idea what that is I asked her again she mentioned the same thing she didnt specify what type of cookie she was she was very rude and A
Be really careful they over charged customers and they don’t hand you your order, but instead they trow it, I spend $14.88 and they over charged me, total $31.76, (tip $16.88) I don’t think so, I wish there was a way to upload an image of receipt, Will never come back. By the way their ice cream is Plain and not worth the price..
The milk bun is everything. All hail the milk bun.
Best ice cream in Pasadena, Ive tried them all.
