Baskin-Robbins

I still go here once in a while because I can’t stay away too long from their mocha Blast which I have had some sort of addiction since college years! I can only imagine how this placed looked back in the days. The surrounding businesses probably was a lot more established than it is today. Now it is next to a laundry place and maybe an auto place that looks abandoned. So it is sitting in an awkward location, now that the businesses around are so so.
I have even witnessed this baskin robbins (or all baskin robbins) closed down in oxnard for a few years and I thought it wouldn’t reopen. But it did and I was happy that their business has picked up again. I did however, imagined a bit of reconstruction. I can only hope the machines were at least replaced.
I did see them building something new in their customers area but only to find it torn down again? I am confused. It is pretty clean looking customers area, but I feel they need to replace the flooring. Everytime I go in there, I wish it was more inviting. It isn’t the employees, but inviting as in deco outside, inside, and best of all the smell of ice cream that makes you crave it. I have been to a baskin robbins in korea and the two i went to was just very inviting and smelled like 31 flavors!!! I only wished it was like that here.
Their ice cream flavors are okay. I usually like the flavor of the months most of it. But I like to stick to my jamoca almond fudge and mocha blast. One positive thing i noticed with their mocha blasts now is that it always comes with chocolate syrup and cinnamon. Before it was just cinnamon which I am fine with either way, but added syrup makes it better.
The cakes are looking better in design. Taste is okay. I just prefer not to have cake and ice cream together because the cake doesn’t taste fresh. It’s better to order regular cake and then some ice cream. But it is a preference that I have.

Clean store, nice & warm inside on a chilly night. I know… I know! I’m in an ice cream shop! But I went on a rainy night & enjoyed they simplicity of the ice cream flavor without shivering from the cold around me thanks to their heated store. I definitly reccomend the «Walnut» & «Red Velvet» flavors… Kinda pricey but when you are indulging every once in a while, the prices aren’t that bad. They also sell smoothies & frappuccino drinks, splits & sundaes. I’m anti-​ice cream cake so I won’t mention what they offer.

They have yummy ice cream. I like it when they have the 39 cent scoops (which happened a few times for certain occasions). It’s just in a weird spot. Not to easily noticed and a little small inside, but thats how the old school baskin robbins are.
