Mutual Friend Ice Cream

Stopped by Mutual Friend for dessert after having dinner in the area - so glad I found them! I loved their menu selections as they had a few Hawaiian/tropical influenced flavors which are harder to come by. I ordered their Haole pie ice cream and it was delicious!It is part of a coffee shop so you can also get coffee or espresso beverage here as well if you aren't in the market for dessert. Service was friendly and quick!

I was curious to try this creamery since the flavors sounded unique and interesting and the prices are very reasonable. I left disappointed because I could not find a flavor that I liked. The vast majority of the flavors are salty (even when the flavor description doesn't mention salt). I came for Haole Pie and it was too salty. Milk & cookies was salty. Banana cream pie was extra salty (to be fair it's in the flavor description). The Hawaiian Latte had very strong unpleasant coconut flavor due to the vegan base.Location is inside of a coffee shop, and the counter is by the door.Street parking was easy to find weekday afternoon but probably tricky in the evening and on weekend days.The staff was very friendly in answering questions and offering flavor samples.

Cool little ice cream shop located INSIDE dark horse coffee. I got confused looking for a stand alone shop but realized it's in Dark Horse. I went around 6pm and they were sold out of a few flavors so keep that in mind. I got the milk and cookies flavor this time but I'm going back to try to the others. The ice cream itself is not too sweet or creamy. It had a light texture to it. The mix of little cookie chunks were great as it gave it an extra flair.

4 flavors, all chocolate. Just pushed a wheelchair 15 blocks uphill in the blazing July sun, and not fond of chocolate. Try harder.

Was walking from dinner nearby and came across this awesome shop! Simple menu with unique and delicious flavors, part of a Dark Horse Roasters coffee shop, and a few indoor seating! I got the split single scoop of Haole Pie & Strawberry Balsamic and both were DELICIOUS! Walk friendly area and plenty of street parking nearby.

Delicious and unique ice cream flavors served in South Park! Mutual Friend shares its location with Dark Horse Coffee in a convenient corner establishment. Parking:Street parking only-- be aware that you might have to circle around a couple of blocks if you go during busy afternoons and weekends.Ambiance/ServiceNice, bright coffee/ice cream shop decorated with string lights above and a large neon sign that says "Dark Horse Coffee." Not a lot of seating inside-- only a couple of 4-person benches and maybe one or two 2-person tables. A large electronic menu resides next to the ice cream counter with descriptions of each flavor. The guy serving us was very patient and nice as we tried out many flavors! At around 7pm on a Wednesday, there was no line. Food:Split singe scoop ($6.50): I ordered the Buttermilk and Blueberries & Couch Potato (I loved the combination of sweet and salty on this one). My husband ordered Vanilla Bean with Olive Oil and Milk and Cookies. What I noticed is that the ice cream is a bit on the runnier side so it might be difficult to eat with a cone. Overall:I'm impressed with the flavors available and I'd love to come back to try out other seasonal flavors when they come out!

Came here after dinner in South Park. Really cute decor inside. They had holiday special ice creams.The service was friendly, and the ice cream was delicious. Worth a check out if you are ever nearby.

There's a ton of ice cream shops to choose from in San Diego, and I love seeing what each of them have to offer that differentiates them from the others. Mutual Friend Ice Cream definitely serves up unique flavor combinations that can't be found in other shops!- PARKING -Street parking only - it gets quite busy and the streets are usually packed with cars, so be ready to circle around the neighborhood!- SERVICE/ENVIRONMENT -You walk in and directly below the menu is where you can get some samples. No limits to how many you can try, which I love!! The shop itself isn't too big, just three tables that can seat 4 people. The outside does have a patio area, but I wasn't sure if it was shared with the business next door. Staff is very patient and very friendly!- FOOD -Split Scoop ($6.50): We had two flavors we really liked so I'm glad we were able to do a split scoop on a single! They consistently update their menu, so flavors are always coming and going! You can see their updated menu on their Instagram page.- OVERALL -Really fun flavor combinations here, and they're always playing into nearby holidays and making flavors based off of them!

I love ice cream! We were in the neighborhood and stopped by this shop. There was a line because there was a street fair that night.I wanted a flight, but they weren't offering those at the time. I ended up getting a scoop of the tropical guava and te lemon almond cake with raspberry swirl. That flavor was so yummy!Too bad I didn't get a waffle chip like the ones I saw in other photos. I'll need to go back and try their other flavors!

We saw this place on yelp, and decided to drive there. It's a coffee shop. That sells ice cream. It is NOT an ice cream shop. After looking at the small selections of both vegan and regular ice creams for our family, we decided to head to a different place for more options.
