Score 88/100 · Order: Custom ice cream sandwich · $7–12
The Baked Bear is an ice cream sandwich shop that lets you choose your cookie, brownie, ice cream, and toppings. The cookies are baked fresh, the ice cream is good quality, and the combinations are endless. The Mission Beach location is the most iconic, with a line that stretches down the boardwalk on summer nights. The sandwich is large and messy, and the experience is fun whether you are a kid or an adult. It is not the purest ice cream experience in the city, but it is the most fun one.
