This ice cream shop has THE best most unique flavors! Fave: coffee and cookies, hands down. Plus an old fashioned giant gum ball machine. If you find a gum ball that is not pink you can trade it in for a free scoop of ice cream. Love it! Such a fun, local, kind of place that takes you back to being a kid. Grabbing a cone and strolling down to the park is the perfect combination.
Love Moosie’s! Just enjoyed one scoop of Guiness Stout and one scoop of Salty Caramel and it was delicious! Always great service, great atmosphere and THE best ice cream!
Delicious! Was eating dinner nearby and wanted something sweet and thank goodness we found this place. I had Cookies and Cream and Maple Walnut, the Ice-Cream was so good! I am not in the area often but would go back just for this ice-cream. it was so loaded with cookies and walnuts!

This is one of the best ice cream shops, not only in San Diego but that I've ever visited. I'm fat and I travel so trust me on this one.
My personal favorite is banana-walnut, but if you're new here, try mexican chocolate or cookie dough.
The service is outstanding, the way they treat everyone (I mean EVERYONE) here should be the benchmark for all businesses.
The atmosphere is really nice, you can walk through the family business history while waiting and enjoy looking at some cool collectibles.
The space is limited if you're planning to have your ice cream there but take-out is a great option too. Their product travels really well.
Parking is close to none but you can park nearby and walk, is a nice area.
So much love for this place. This hole in the wall local ice cream shop just gives you such a warm vibe. They have quite a variety of flavors to choose from. The ice creams they have are not too creamy and not too sweet. Perfect to fulfill your cravings without all the guilt!! Support local business!!!
I love this great small business. I've been here several times. Their ice cream is always delicious, and the workers are always nice and courteous. They usually have about a dozen flavors available. Cute, eclectic decor.
Nice local place to grab a scoop. I got a shake and they had some Vegan Flavors for the little girl I was watching that is allergic to eggs. (Because apparently eggs in ice cream is a thing?)
No plastic products, they gave wooden spoons and thick paper straws for shakes.
The line was to the door when I walked in but it moved quickly.
the BEST mexican chocolate ice cream i have ever had!! better than the one i got in san francisco!! it tastes just like champurado it was delicious!!!
Great ice cream with wonderful people. Stop soon and try them all. I recommend the Mocha Sundae. It was delish.
Hands down the best ice cream in San diego! They make all of the ice cream themselves on site with recipes they developed years ago. The service is excellent. The prices are unbelievably low. Whenever friends visit I always take them there. It's a real treasure. I highly recommend it.
The ice cream here is super delicious! The price is definitely worth it. Especially when you ask for one scoop most places give you so little. Mariposa ice cream give you a generous amount of ice cream. From cones to milkshakes.
We'll definitely be back soon! The waffle cone is super fresh and also a great deal! It's flakey but sturdy and delicious. I got pumpkin ice cream and my husband got cookies n cream and coffee. I tried his coffee ice cream and wish I had ordered it! It was definitely the best, strongest coffee flavor ice cream I've ever had. We randomly popped in on a Saturday afternoon and were pleasantly surprised by this ice cream shop!
