Hometown Creamery San Francisco
Ice cream flights
You've probably had a beer flight, maybe even a wine flight, but have you ever had an ice cream flight? SF's Hometown Creamery makes their own ice cream in-house, by the batch, which means you're only getting the freshest ice cream out there. They offer regular sized scoops, but who wants one of those, when you can get a whole flight?! I recommend sharing with a date or friend because it ends up being quite a lot of ice cream! It's worth the splurge to get a topping or two - everything just tastes so good you won't want to say no.
This spot is the perfect break from an afternoon in Golden Gate Park or walking along the quaint streets of the Inner Sunset doing some window shopping.
