Client Testimonials

Beach ice is a wonderful treat! it's not a snow cone, it's actually packaged up like ice cream and served like it as well. The flavors are really tasty with a great variety minty fruity savory etc. All the products in the shop are produced by local businesses as well . It's definitely worth a try and might become a favorite.

every flavor I’ve tried so far has been absolutely delicious and the employees are so nice! My favorite flavor so far is definitely pink lemonade with a scoop of sweet tea! they also have some locally made products in store like a farmers market stand.

Now you can get the farmers market ice and salsa whenever you want! Getting Italian ice is always the kids highlight of the farmers market, now that they have a storefront in the heart of Poway we love to stop by for a quick cold treat. The outside bar top is perfect to hang and enjoy. Great staff and even better shaved ice!

Dane H.

Got a few flavors. The root beer flavor was my absolute favorite. They also sell a few other random items like jarred honey. Would definitely return next time I'm in town

Literally so good I never write reviews but this place has so many flavors and was so well priced as well!! Used to drive to laguna beach for the closest Rita’s since the one in PQ was shut down and haven’t found anything quite as good but can confirm SoCal Beach Ice is even better!! Even offering a soft serve as well..
