• Wynston's Ice Cream, Co.

  

  Location: North City,

  Hours: Noon - 11 p.m.

  Bringing happiness in each and every scoop. When we moved to San Diego seven years ago, we immediately felt at home, and this is where we wanted to build our ice cream dream. We had been in awe of the continuous love and support our community brings, and are able to continue this dream thanks to their part in our journey. ​While ice cream making and scooping are what we do physically, we believe with all our souls that we are serving a moment of happiness. A memory-making moment. A chance to pull a nostalgic memory and draw upon that beautiful warmth that only happiness brings. We want that for each and every one of you, and the best way we know how to do that is to make the highest-quality premium ice cream that taps into nostalgic flavors and sometimes will surprise you with a fun new one. We hope to see you soon and cannot wait to share that moment of joy with you.
