Fosters Freeze — Restaurant in Glendora

Well, they must pay okay because the young men working there have nicer cars than I do. The only other customers were haggard near-baby-boomers waiting for their sweets in their cars and then eating them in their cars as well (even though it wasn't hot enough to require air conditioning to forestall drippage). These others also displayed a mastery of the menu that I lack, ordering eccentric and colorful objects in large plastic glasses that looked more like something you'd use as the centerpiece on your table when entertaining than something you'd endeavor to digest. Me I just ordered a soft serve vanilla which I then commanded them to dip in chocolate. This later maneuver they executed successfully. And well that they did: there is something truly remarkable about eating a soft something turned upside down and dipped in molten something which then cools and hardens in your hand. And then you eat it. Why aren't we all...

By far this place has to be the king of all ice cream!!

First of all, if you are looking for a classic ice cream place this is it, it has been here for a very long time and has that old dairy look to it with benches and an old phone booth right next to it. Is totally 70's and 80's style!

I love their dipped cones the best but they have a huge variety of what they can serve you. I have been coming here for years and I have always loved it. Now I take my kids here too!

You have to try their banana splits and their parfait as well!

The fact that it's a drive up and park kinda joint gives it that extra nostalgic atmosphere!

Way better than Dairy Queen!

Hey also have pretty decent fast food options too! Their burger c I with fries and a drink is a popular choice.

So if you are looking for a fun place to take the kids for some good ice cream or the occasional fast food treat, FOSTER's...

Foster's doesn't look like much from the outside, but don't judge it based on its appearance alone. It looks a little divey and looks unlike the trendy ice creameries that have popped up recently. The exterior seems as though it hasn't been updated since it was built in the 50's/60's. But don't let that fool you, this place has some of the consistently best ice cream I've ever had.

Their chocolate dipped soft serve is absolutely divine. The chocolate dipped chocolate soft serve is especially amazing, but the vanilla is excellent too. Their sundaes are consistently good.

Parking is very rarely a problem. You just drive up, park, and order your ice cream. Generally the wait isn't super long, but they're also pretty efficient if it gets a little longer.

The best part about Foster's has to be the price. You genuinely cannot beat how cheap it is for the quality...
