Baskin-Robbins

Not in a great location but great service! Been coming to this spot for last 8 years or so. The small asian girl and skinny Indian guy are my fave people to make my shale just right!

Every year like clock work, my birthday arrives and departs on a quiet, uneventful note. Most often, I have to work, and too tired to celebrate. So the one thing that I usually make a point of having is a Baskin-​Robbins ice cream cake. This year was no exception, as Joe K. drove me to this location which happened to be near my parent’s house. Oddly, as we approached this place we thought we spotted the entrance off of Folsom Blvd. But we soon realized that we had entered the exit! The arrows on the asphalt were pointing in the opposite direction and parking spaces were facing the wrong way! As we looked for where the real entrance was, they had two lanes coming in on the other side of the building. Why don’t they have an entrance and exit on both sides? It just seemed like a strange way to direct customers in. Made me wonder if they got that much business to require a two lane entrance. Oh well, we finally figured out where to park after a few turns around in the lot!
When we arrived, I noticed that this a multi-​combination business that not only includes Baskin-​Robbins, but a mini-​mart and gas station, all packaged into one small building. I felt a little disappointed the ice cream section was positioned to one corner of the room offering a limited selection to choose from. The freezer case had several cakes on display, but they seemed either too small or too large to feed my family. Then Joe discovered a small ice cream cake in the back of the freezer that was made with my favorite two ice creams! Chocolate chip mint and chocolate fudge! My disappointment faded away, as we made the purchase. I wasn’t sure if it would be enough for 6 people, but it actually worked out well as everyone got a small slice. The ice cream was very delicious, and my only birthday wish was that there would have been left overs! But not so surprising, that’s how my birthdays usually end…

Just fyi they don’t offer the «check in and unlock the 3 prepacked quarts for $ 12.» When asked how much they were I was told 2 for $ 9, which I was fine with. Then I was told it was 2 for $ 9.99. Then I was told that it might be more than that but he didn’t know how much… I ended up just leaving. Get it together Baskin Robbins. Your jobs not that hard.

The team members are really cool and nice. They are patient and rare to serve; odd since they are in a gas station. Totally sketchy area, but no one has ever messed with us nor that we’ve seen.
Save the drive to the one on Sunrise; hidden gem for sure!!!

great shakes thats close to rancho cordova. made out of real ice cream not soft serve… I rank them against dairy queen, costco, carls jr and Arbys and wendys and burger king Mac Donalds and jack in the box no one makes a better shake. Leatherbys or vics in mid town maybe but not in rancho cordova! The mocha blast is still my all-​time favorite you won’t regret it!
