McConnell's Fine Ice Creams

McConnell's Fine Ice Creams The finest ice creams made from scratch, since 1949
📍SB | LA | SLO | SD | OC We are a tribe of food people. And nothing else. Of any kind. Ever. The result? McC's.

A winemaker and a chef, obsessed with quality and fanatical when it comes to this unique product we churn out. The third generation stewards of the legendary Old Dairy, in downtown, Santa Barbara, we make our ice creams the same way McC's has for almost 70 years - from scratch - using California Central Coast milk and cream and the finest local, sustainable and organic, raw ingredients, sourced from many of the same partner farms, artisans and purveyors we’ve worked with for decades. No stabilizers, fillers or additives. A perfect balance of pure flavor, smooth and consistent texture and incredible creaminess. The country's original, artisan ice cream.

The cone is not packaging. It’s part of the order.

Especially when it’s a house-made McC’s waffle cone, warm, crisp and waiting for a scoop. 🍦🧇

Happy National Waffle Cone Day to everyone who knows the last bite is the best one.

From pumpkin to pint. 🎃🍨

Real pumpkin puree, espresso, warming spices, and salted caramel swirls come together to make our Pumpkin Spice Latte ice cream. Because making a PSL ice cream takes a little more than pouring a latte into the freezer.

We’ve had it up to HERE with pumpkin spice. 🎃 So naturally, we froze it.

Our Pumpkin Spiced Latte brings together cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger & allspice-spiced pumpkin ice cream, a hit of espresso, and swirls of rich salted caramel.
