The finest ice creams made from scratch, since 1949
📍SB | LA | SLO | SD | OC We are a tribe of food people. And nothing else. Of any kind. Ever. The result? McC's.

A winemaker and a chef, obsessed with quality and fanatical when it comes to this unique product we churn out. The third generation stewards of the legendary Old Dairy, in downtown, Santa Barbara, we make our ice creams the same way McC's has for almost 70 years - from scratch - using California Central Coast milk and cream and the finest local, sustainable and organic, raw ingredients, sourced from many of the same partner farms, artisans and purveyors we’ve worked with for decades. No stabilizers, fillers or additives. A perfect balance of pure flavor, smooth and consistent texture and incredible creaminess. The country's original, artisan ice cream.

Crisp, sparkling apple meets tart cranberry, swirled into rich Central Coast milk & cream. 🍎❤️

Made with Sparkling C***r and ribbons upon ribbons of our house-made cranberry jam, this scoop is sweet, tangy, creamy, and full of California flavor.

Two California classics. One seriously delicious collaboration.

A little something is swirling back just in time for the season. 🍏✨

A collab favorite is making its return this Friday, 10/9.

Coffee ice cream, but with standards. ☕🍦 Organic Espresso Chip blends organic ingredients, grass-fed cream, rich espresso, and Guittard® chocolate chips.

Because “organic” doesn’t have to mean boring. It can mean bold, creamy, chocolatey, and very, very good.

Now available online for nationwide shipping & at .

It’s National Coffee Day, and we brought ice cream. ☕️🍦

We didn’t invent coffee ice cream. We perfected it.

Just in time for National Coffee Day, meet Organic Espresso Chip: a wake-the-dead jolt of rich espresso churned with grass-fed cream and loaded with melted Guittard® chocolate chips.

No watered-down coffee ice cream here. Just bold espresso, silky cream, and chocolate in every bite.

The cone is not packaging. It’s part of the order.

Especially when it’s a house-made McC’s waffle cone, warm, crisp and waiting for a scoop. 🍦🧇

Happy National Waffle Cone Day to everyone who knows the last bite is the best one.

We put a Pumpkin Spiced Latte in the freezer…

…and it came back as ice cream.

Turns out, fall tastes better frozen. 🍨☕️🎃

We’ve got 3 words for you… Raspberry. Cheesecake. Crust. 😏

Okay, technically the crust is chocolate. So that’s 4.

Raspberry. Cheesecake. Chocolate. Crust.

And we’ve got 3 more: Limited. Time. Release. 👀

Now scooping exclusively at .
