Yummy. I came here to try out the ice cream and had a single scoop of the ghirardelli rocky road ice cream in a waffle cone. Loved it! It was a lot bigger than I expected. Prices are slightly higher, but expected since it's in a tourist area & the name of the place. I can't wait to go back to SF and try the other flavors!

Old-fashioned soda fountain and sweets shop that's all about the real San Francisco treat: chocolate.. In Short
In operation since 1852, this famous San Francisco chocolate manufacturer is the longest continually operating chocolatier in America. At the company's shops, find specialty sundaes--including the World Famous Chocolate Sundae and Golden Gate Banana Split--as well as hand-scooped shakes, malts, floats and one- or two-scoop cones. Browse the selection of gifts, gift baskets and candies wrapped in the signature gold foil.

don't do it!. don't go here! talk about overpriced...i paid $8 for a banana split that was half-melted by the time i got it. if you want good, authentic san francisco ice cream, go to Swenson's up the street on Hyde, where the locals go. Ghirardelli has the worst service and is a complete rip-off. If you're ever in chicago, the ghiradelli there (right off michigan ave) is a much better experience!

Great ice cream. I thought that the Ghirardelli ice cream was great. It was creamy and cold. The servers were nice and made sure that everything was clean, which is great for a clean freak like me.
