Scoops Sj Ice Cream Truck

I got one scoop with the marble fudge. One scoop was huge. It was a little too sweet at certain points, BUT the vanilla was very on point. Next time, I will try a different flavor.

Edmund wasn’t here to review.

The flavors they offer are some basic ones and some creative ones, perfect. I like that they provide a waffle cone, their 1 scoop is plentiful.
Got the oreo mint, great flavor. Downside was how soft and melted the ice cream was… The flavor was on point and the chunky oreo pieces were really good but I like my ice cream extra cold and harder. A little disappointing! Can’t have an ice cream truck with soft/​melted ice cream!!!

We had our team’s summer Picnic for our company in Livermore and the park did not allow food trucks but Scoops was so kind enough to scoop up 400 cups of 4 different flavors for us and delivered it to the park on the picninc day. Jane is a amazing person to work with as she was able to accomodate our requests in the last minute. We had Mango, Vanilla, Brownie a la mode, Rasberry sorbet. All the flavors were excellent and all of them loved it. We would definitely go with scoops for our future events. Thumbs up to Scoops. Thanks again for the wonderful service.

I was lucky enough to try Scoops at a San Jose Spiders Ultimate game. The Mango flavor was fantastic: it had such nice thick chunks of mango fruit blended perfectly into the creamy ice cream. Their Macapuno (young coconut) flavor was also outstanding, I’d never tried anything like it. Usually coconut flavors are overwhelming with their nutty flavor, but the ice cream was smooth and delicate, and the little bits flavor of fresh young coconut in it were like flavor explosions, reminding you that it was indeed a coconut ice cream. Fresh waffle cone is also a must. Definitely worth trying!
Bottom line: on a hot summer day, if you can find Scoops then a scoop of their ice cream is the best way to beat the heat.

6÷10÷15: Well, tried this truck for the first time and for the most part their ice cream is good enough. But their prices are kinda ridiculous for what you get (relatively small scoops of standard-​ish ice cream, maybe at best Ben & Jerry’s quality)…
The samples:
1. Strawberry: The spoonful they gave me didn’t have any real strawberries in it, but i am assume the full scoop will (it should right?) But the taste is very artificial. I skipped on it. ⁵⁄₁₀.
2. Mocha Almond Fudge: Tastes just like you would expect. Good ribbons of fudge. ⁶⁄₁₀.
The Double Waffle Cone $ 8: Yes, $ 8 for a cone. I have NEVER seen any cone anywhere that expensive. And this is not one of those hulking cones made out of a fresh waffle… looks like a standard cheapo waffle cone you can buy in bulk. It’s standard in size. The scoops are actually relatively small. I was kinda surprised when they handed me the cone – the ice cream sat only about 1″ above the top of the cone, and was already melting over the sides by the time they handed it to me!!! And I got 2 scoops! Man… pretty dang stingy. I think this is the worst value ice cream I have ever had. ²⁄₁₀.
How did it taste?:
3. Cookies N Cream: Not bad. Slightly better than standard ice cream – bigger chunks of the cookie. But otherwise same stuff. ⁵⁄₁₀.
4. Brownie Ala [yes, that’s how they spelled it] Mode: It’s okay. Big chunks of brownie, which tasted a little like raw cookie dough. Wasn’t really pleasant to me. Overall flavor was okay but nothing special. ⁵⁄₁₀.
Welp, everything tastes average. But MAN do they rip you off!

We had a spring fair at my sons school. The lady who planned it had to try and get approval for this truck and others for about six months. I don’t see why she wasted her time. The service was far from great and the cones were seemingly over priced. I mean who pays ten dollars for a cone just to have it shoved at you. Save your money for a better time. The flavors were good jut over all dissatisfaction from the service and prices. I mean kids were crying!

I am an unpaid mom who worked endless hours organizing an event for an elementary school faire. I am learning, new to the food truck world. But this vendor and her staff came across a little self rghtesous to me and I had complaints from numerous kids and parents on how rude they were. I would not recommend. Save yourself and get your own ice cream. Almost ruined the experience for me if it weren’t for the other wonderful vendors I had there. Judging by the other reviews here, if you are up to her standards and meet her «quota,» you are good, otherwise, watch out.

Their selection of flavors is very limited. The ice cream tastes store-​bought and gross. The prices are way too high, especially for the amount given you. And lastly, the main lady taking orders/​money and handing out ice cream is very rude. She made a mistake with my order and made me pay to correct her mistake. Terrible. Also, it is unsanitary to take money and make change and then serve food. She doesn’t wash her hands in between handling money and handling customers’ food. That’s just plain nasty.

Saw their truck at the 75^th Anniversary NASA Ames Research Center Open House at the Super Moveable Feast. It was hot and wanted something cold to consume after our extremely late lunch and saw this truck in the sweets section of the trucks.

Tried the Pumpkin and the Ube and enjoyed the flavors but not the texture of the ice cream. It had a lot of air and kind of had the texture of ice cream when it had melted and then frozen again (the edge of the carton part where it’s foamy like). Was extremely off-​putting. Won’t be trying them again.

The true test of a truck’s ability to serve a crowd is to release 500 people at one time and only give the crowd one option for a fun treat! That is the test we put Scoops through on Sunday… we wanted to give our guests a fun treat after church was out and unleashed a hungry crowd at one time! But Jane and her team passed with flying colors! Everyone loved the ice cream, especially the Heaven flavor (how fitting for a church crowd) and I enjoyed working with Jane through the booking process. Thanks Scoops for being part of a great day of celebration!

I had the pleasure of working with Scoops for one of our company socials. Jane was extremely professional yet super sweet, and she definitely made the whole booking process so easy and happy.
On the day of the event, two guys showed up like 30−45min before the event, and was beyond ready when the employees started rolling out to the parking lot. The service was amazing and I could tell they really take their job seriously, which always impresses me. All the ice cream flavors were DELICIOUS, and we really couldn’t be any happier. They stayed around for a long long time until everyone in the company could not possibly eat more ice cream, and wrapped up the event very nicely at the end, too.
The previous month we had the ice cream social with Treatbot, which was a complete disaster. I only know this because I’m the one who planned this and of course I didn’t go around bashing on the vendors. But every single employee I talked to, who had no idea about the back story, all told me that they preferred Scoops over Treatbot solely for the actual tastes and the service.
If you are looking for an ice cream vendor that would wow your guests, Scoops is the way to go. Affordable, professional, delicious, and fun!

Making the world a happier place… one scoop at a time.
They certainly succeeded in making a happier me!
It will be too easy to Unilocal the delicious flavors, the exceptional friendliness and service at the front window, the ice cream vendors regularly getting out of their truck to check on their patrons, and the thorough knowledge they have of their product when pelted with questions relating to dietary restrictions, ingredients and churning temperature — whatever that means.
No, this is a Unilocal about the behind the scenes operation, about the happiness Scoops spreads that would rarely be known by the world.
I was in a bind to find a dessert treat for a community event. Why did I wait until 4 days before the event to start cold calling all the dessert trucks in the bay area??? So of course no one returned my calls, except for Scoops. They were very professional and communicated with me via phone and email. When one of my email correspondence was not sent out until 11 pm on a Friday, their response arrived 10 minutes later.
After all that work, I had to send the shameful email that I could not afford their services (which I found out later was totally standard market price). I explained that this was going to be a fundraiser and we were working on a shoestring budget and apologized for wasting their time.
Lo and behold, they called me back a short time later and happily worked with my budget! What? How? Why? The event was a complete success and everyone ooh’d and aah’d their way to and from Scoops!
Thank you Scoops! You are a Bay Area gem of quality and commitment to the community you serve… one scoop at a time.

Not sure I understand the concept of this truck. Is it a fancy ice cream truck? A mobile Baskin Robins? I never see much of a line. Usually some employee yelling out the window at the customers for other food trucks «anyone want some ice cream?». I don’t see much of a point of this ice cream truck that has like 5 flavors available.
Tried it once on a whim. It definitely tasted like ice cream. I didn’t find anything special about it.
Plus, not too happy with their customer service/​people skills. My son was waiting in line to get an ice cream when they were yelling out that they were going to give out a free ice cream to someone to take a picture on Facebook. Naturally my 10 year old gets excited and runs up to the truck wanting in on some free ice cream. Well he was told by the employee that he didn’t «look cool enough» and they wanted someone «cooler looking» on their Facebook page.
Nice.
So he didn’t end up buying ice cream there because they weren’t cool enough for him.

Not bad. I tried the toasted almond flavor a few weeks ago. There were plenty of crushed almonds in the cream. $ 3 is pretty good for a generous serving of ice cream.
I had to lower my rating because of their lack customer service. The guy running the truck was not friendly at all. He did not greet us nor thank us. In fact, he barely said a word to us. Maybe he was having an off day but he sure did not look like he enjoyed his job.
I’ll probably pass the next time I see them…

Great ice cream! Real traditional ice cream. Flavors are very unique but it tastes like real ice cream which I love. It does melt faster, which makes me think its fresher. I loved both flavors I tried: Marble Fudge and Cookies N Dough. Both were great. Also, love the prices. $ 3 for two scoops. Who doesn’t want a good deal for a little afternoon snack?! Also, they accept credit cards which is nice!
Great food truck! And also, great service. The guy working was so friendly and nice, which is a good break from some of the rude service you find. Definitely a must try!

The crème de la crème of ice cream in the South Bay. I tried it out two weeks ago when they set up shop right outside my work.
Had one scoop of the Cookies n Cream. Wow what a generous scoop which is really about 2 scoops. That puts places like B&R, Cold Stone to shame. $ 3/​a scoop.
Straight up no pun intended, it was thick & creamy ice cream that is frankly better than anything you’ll find in the store. Choice of cone (sugar/​regular) free of charge.
This past time tried the salted caramel. Like the way they infused the caramel throughout and the slight saltiness creates a soft texture that forces you to eat it quickly.
Was hoping they would have the cookies & Froot Loops flavors back but they rotate a majority of the flavors regularly which isn’t a bad idea.
Friendly service and am looking forward to indulging in another round of Scoops in the near future.

Scoops came to my younger brother’s highschool spirit rally and I thought this was a great opportunity to grab some ice cream for my parents and myself.
I waited in a huge line, which I don’t blame anyone because hey, it’s Scoops and who doesn’t love ice cream?
As I got closer to the window, flavors started coming off their menu and I hoped that I would not get stuck with «Fudge and Orange». Because my dad can’t eat chocolate and it just didn’t sound appealing. They finally ran out of all the flavors and only had Fudge and Orange left, but since I waited for so long in line I just paid my $ 3 to get a scoop of ice cream I knew my dad would hate. (We waited half of the rally to get ice cream …)
I brought it back to my dad who managed to eat 1 – 2 spoons and was done. Wish there was at least a discount or something for having just one flavor left. I tried the ice cream myself and it had a very artificial orange flavor that didn’t go well with the chocolate. Not like the flavor of chocolate candies with a hint of orange flavor at all.
Oh well 7_(‘-‘)_/‘

Delicious ice cream! Generous scoops no matter what you get it in. I’ve tried their ube, fruity loops, salty caramel, raspberry crunch, and their seasonal pumpkin flavor. I have yet to be disappointed! They have really quick service too so you won’t be standing in line for too long.
If you’re on the fence between flavors just ask to sample them!

i hadn’t been here for a while, but today i tried these flavours:
*pistachio crunch: rich and creamy, strong pistachio flavour with lots of pistachio nuts mixed in to give that extra crunch.
*cookie dough: since i love cookies ‘n cream, this one was just 1 better. essentially, it was cookies ‘n cream (with the bits of oreo cookies mixed in), PLUS cookie dough (i’m going to guess chocolate chip cookie dough). so it was a creamy, decadent mix of two of my favourite cookies, in ice cream form.
note: they now take credit cards!

Scoops is the 21^st century ice cream truck.
They have «gourmet» flavors that deviate from your normal vanilla, chocolate, etc. Birthday cake and fruit loops for the kids. Toasted almonds and salty caramel for the more sophisticated taste buds. Macapuno (young coconut) and ube (purple yam) for the adventurous. They also have the classic mint chocolate and cookie dough flavors.
If you’re not sure what you like, you can try a sample before ordering — but beware! That is a slippery slope. I tried both toasted almonds and salty caramel and couldn’t decide which I liked better so I got both!
$ 3/​scoop and cash only. They’re big scoops.

I feel spoiled since I have Penny and Marianne’s nearby in Santa Cruz.
I heart kicks and treat bot was also delicious.
HOWEVER
I love me some fruit loops I am not going to lie. They have some amazing flavors!
My two favorites are the fruit loops and the salted caramel.
Cary the owner is super friendly and appreciates feedback. my feedback. five stars!
I totally look forward to seeing more of these guys… I finally get my P. A ice creamery kick without having to go over there!
