Magpies Softserve — Restaurant in Los Angeles

Finally an ice cream (soft serve) place where I can trust the ingredients. Having a fam member who is allergic to dairy it’s always a hit or miss experience going to ice cream shops since most places use the same scooper and won’t clean that well going from dairy to non dairy. Even if you ask them to use a new scooper, the person before who went in to the non dairy Ice cream could have used a regular scooper. For these reasons when I saw this place pop up on York I was soooo excited because with soft serve you don’t use a scooper since it’s released from a machine.

We walked in on a whim, and the only thing I regret is not having come here sooner. I pass by there so often and because i wasn't sure what a magpie was i never tried it.

I ordered thin mint ice cream with brownie bites and cookie crumbs. I have yet to find any place that can achieve non-dairy ice cream with such a consistency. I figured V must have stood for vegetarian and not vegan, but I was wrong. Surprisingly, it is not dairy, but oat milk! Anybody who is lactose intolerant must try this place! With this restaurant so close to me, I feel like I can finally eat ice cream again! It is expensive, but as someone who can’t enjoy ice cream normally, it is so worth it! The ice cream tasted exactly like thin months, but freezing cold! It’s taste and temperature is exactly what I try to achieve by putting my Girl Scout cookies in the freezer. The cookie crumbs made it so...
