International Ice Cream & Beverage Parlor

While walking down the Redondo Pier, my wife and I found this perfect ice cream and dessert place. It’s located right on the Boardwalk and usually has long lines during the weekends, which is a sign that it must be really good. There are a couple of tables inside, but I usually take the ice cream cones for a little walk down the beach.
They have a nice selection of ice creams, sorbets, and milkshakes. My go-​to is the single scoop of the Raspberry Sorbet. Super refreshing and not too sweet. Honestly the perfect choice on any given day.
If you happen to find yourself walking down the Redondo Pier, please indulge yourself with a tasty ice cream from International.

This place makes for an easy dessert after eating at Captain Kidd’s for dinner.
The kids had a decent selection to choose from and it made the walk back to the hotel room much easier.

Very nice place — love their milkshakes. The owner is a character!

About 15 flavors of Dryers Ice cream and shaved ice here. I was hoping for homemade stuff. The name led me to believe it would be something different. The birthday cake Dryers was exactly what my 4-​year-​old wanted. The piña colada shaved ice was inedible. Tasted more like tanning lotion than syrup. Blech! Stick to the store bought stuff and you’ll be OK. Maybe.

Order the banana split and realize that this place does it professionally! Also, you get to choose whatever flavor your banana split is so you don’t have to stick to the standard neopalitan (chocolate/​strawberry/​vanilla) combo. This thing was the works with the sliced banana (split) in half, my three flavors of ice cream (pistacho nut/​rockyroad/​strawberry), whip cream, crumbled peanuts, butterscotch and chocolate syrup toped with three maraschino cherries. I haven’t had a banana split this good in years! Cold Stone, eat your expensive heart out. Errr, this was pricey at $ 6.50. The interior is really small so I’d rather eat outside. The service was done with a smile and a lot of care. Check this place out for dessert after you stuff your face at Quality Seafood (
