I have come here a few times with a friend of mine when we are in the area. Its a blue building...you order outside and pick up outside...no indoor seating. This time I ordered a small tripple berry sundae...3.99...vanilla ice cream...topped with like a berry compote which was really good ...whipped cram...chopped peanuts and a cherry on top...i very much enjoyed it...very refreshing. he ordered a medium strawberry shake...4.31. He said he really enjoyed it. They also sell food such as hotdogs...burgers...pastrami burger...grilled cheese...shrimp in chips...fries...onion rings...corn dogs...as well as other ice cream treats like soft serve cones or dipped cones...blizzards...eat. I like this place a lot...

The food is Always FABOLOUS.......Caring Ownership. PLUS you get your food the same way you ordered it. + One more plus.........they always ask do you need, catsup or salt and pepper. A LOT OF RESTAURANTS OR FAST FOOD LET you leave and get home......... NO.........PLEASE ASK US.......SOME DAYS HAVE BEEN LONG AND ASSISTANCE IS NEEDED.

À la recherche de temps perdu...reliving my childhood. So happy they're still open after all these years. Love the vanilla ice cream cone with chocolate dip. The fish sandwich is better than Macdonald's. Hamburger satisfactory too. Enjoyed seeing happy regulars come & go too. Flying under the radar grooviness.

I don't normally eat burgers, but for some reason this fast food joint really has my number. It doesn't hurt that they have waffle fries (God's gift to potatoes) and hearty good shakes. Get the double decker burger!

T
Terry Butler

I can see why they are so few now. It took forever. People....Fresh french fries and a pastrami sandwich take time to cook. Crispy outside soft inside. Not even the small ones were hard. Pastrami sandwich? The best.

Hard to review such an iconic establishment as Fosters Freeze, but if you’re feeling the need to relive any nostalgic moment from your life that involves ice cream, you’ll find it here.

I've been coming to this place since I was a kid. The food and the service are great. I love their strawberry shakes and curly fries.

My wife had the Old Fashion Hamburger and fries, I had the Vegan Burger and Fried Zucchini, We both had Root beer floats, everything was delicious 😋

My family and I always love going here for a treat! They have really good chicken sandwiches and the ice cream is like no other. I recommend the swirly cone.

A
Andrew Wiedlea

Perfect for what it is; a remnant of a time when soft-serve dipped cones roamed the earth amidst chocolate dip hot springs. Get a cone, and enjoy during daylight hours, or come at night and get a cone, possibly some meth, or a chance to meet a new friend!

D
Daniel McMullan

That frosty cone nearly knocked off my phoney mustache disguise. And that grease spot from that cheeseburger is going to be Exhibit.A in my diet trial. So I will just plead now to using the subterfuge of stopping by to get something for the kids to indulge my own wanton desires. "Would you like that chocolate dipped?" Oh heck yeah. In for a penny, in for a pound.

Emilie Conrad

Went to check on some Maybelline. Got distracted by a fried burrito, I'm not saying it's their fault... But next time I'll save room for an ice cream. Old school West Berkeley... Hope it never gets bulldozed for a fly by night tapas shop. Let's stand by this icon. Por favor.

On a warm summer evening nothing is better than soft serve dipped chocolate cone it is so wonderful to have this and Foster freeze is an affordable way to get it we really love getting ourselves a good chocolate dip whenever we can

I've been buying ice cream and eating there since I was a young child. The place has changed ownership but it still provides ice cream cones for my grandchildren it also has very good food. Fast and convenient. It's one of Berkeley's finest.

Pure Nostalgia! I can't wait to bring my grandbabies to have an Iconic chocolate dipped ice cream cone and it's just as good from when I was a kid 😋. I am so glad they are still around

The most fire fish sandwich I’ve ever had. SO GOOD. So satisfying. The dredge that they used for the fish was perfect, the fried fish came out way better than any fish and chips I’ve ever gotten. Hot and superr crispyyy. A nice sweet potato bun, crispy lettuce, probs a nice amount of mayo. Was gonna try it and then take it home but I ate the whole thing on the spot. Mcdonalds filet-o-fish could neverrr

Old style fast food joint with no dining room. Burgers, soft serve ice cream, etc. It takes a few minutes more than the big franchise chains, but the food is bigger, tastes better, and did I mention the ice cream, shakes, sundaes, and dipped cones?

Francine Stovall

My friend goes there every week and raved about it so we had went out to eat but we didn't have dessert. I wanted to try your Frosty Freeze and I'm so glad I did. I really enjoyed the chocolate covered ice cream. I'm looking forward to bringing my grandchildren in the near future to Frosty Freeze😁

The staff was super patient trying to understand what my child was trying to order. She reread the order twice to make sure she had all our special adjustments were correct. Then they helped guide us to the nearest bathroom.

I almost gave this business 4 stars. But it had nothing to do with quality or service. Before I get to the main event, let me tell you why it got 5 stars. It got 5 stars because everything was perfect. The staff was friendly and efficient. The food was hot and served in a timely manner and the place didn't smell like urine or have a bunch of vagrants scoping the parking lot. It really was a perfect first experience. Except....it was soooo damn far from my house. That's the only reason I ALMOST gave it four stars. But I just couldn't. Everything else was so flawless, i just couldn't give it any less than 5. Thanks folks. There's still professionalism in the world but build more of these types of places....closer to my house. Rkc-

Twisters....soft serve with your choice of treat blended inside. Classic favorite. And the dipped cones, that's why people go to a Foster's Freeze, right? Well, they got 'em

This is purely a review of their food - I'm not about to judge them on the space since they're kinda in a parking lot. I've had their food a few times, and I usually start on my meal about 5 mins after I got it from them. This is kind of a factor for burgers and fries... ...And they are excellent! Their burgers are solid, and very reasonably priced. I like Jack in the Box, but if I'm paying $8-10 on a nice burger from either place, Fosters Freeze is by far the better choice. Minimal grease or salt, doesn't make me want to run and grab a salad afterwards - yeah, these guys are legit! As for fries, I'd rate them as pretty good overall, but you can't go wrong with their waffle fries - so good that I'm tempted to go back just to order only those! If you think of them as a takeout spot and not a sit down restaurant, then they're definitely up there at the top. Thanks guys!

Soft Serve: 4/5 Service: 3/5 Ambiance: 3/5 Overall: When you are in the mood for some soft serve this is the place to be. Would I come back: Indeed I shall The extended review… Soft Serve: Rocky Road - 4/5 - A very nice treat. Who could say no to vanilla with chocolate and marshmallows. YUM! Service: 3/5 - Standard service Ambiance: 3/5 - Not much of an ambiance. There is some seating but you are basically eating in the parking lot.

When your regular fast food cream machine breaks down, you can always count of Fosters to have your back. In addition, they have a variety of cold drinks, burgers and hot dogs. This location also has a small amount of parking.

Only had a chocolate and vanilla cone. Good, but not as creamy as some soft serve.

Mary Petersen

Went there not thinking I was hungry and just had a major argument with beau... After getting a hamburger combo with fries and soda, the fries are perfectly fries are every single fry (saved some for later after my belly relaxed, the fries were still better than the McD's that only taste good when hot) hamburger could have used more seasoning and more sauce, but the fries made up for that and an ice cold Coca-Cola to hit the spot! Definitely a go back place! And the you by last that works there all the time do3s wonderful as well. Keep up the good work Foster Freze on University Ave in Berkeley

I remember the ice cream being creamier.. kinda felt watery compared to the chocolate harder layer. Still nostalgic, and still on the corner.

I grew up across the street going to West Campus I set my first track record at West Campus I did it off of Foster Freeze milkshakes and hot fudge sundae and determination ! so I've decided to stop By on. A MAY DAY in 2019 to see if it was the same they told me for 52 years they use the same ice cream my cousin who had bought the hamburger said the hamburger sucked my hot fudge sundae was great they even gave me free extra nuts like I'm not a nut already anyway whenever y'all get a chance I'm James McCoy come to one of my comedy shows at Tommy T's I'm having one June 13th for my 61st birthday it would be nice to see the class of 76 there matter of fact if you say you from the class of 1976 which means we went to West Campus and what 73-74 I'll let you in for free so the class of 76 my high school graduating class and Class of 73 74 went to West Campus we YOU GET in free thank you P.s. the shrimp reminded me OF KWICK Way.S only they didn't have that Tangy saucE

I maybe could give it 5 stars but it was a tad expensive for burger and fries and chili cheese fries, but then again SUPER ample, super delicious, and VERY filling (1 order of chili cheese fries filled up my boyfriend and I.) Plus super sizing it probably didn't help the price to stay low. Nice selection of shakes. I love that it was open late enough. Plenty of parking.

S
Saharah Friztgerald

I've only been twice to this location. The first time the ice cream was good & creamy. The second time the ice cream was icey & not the texture expected unfortunately. My family has been going to Foster Freeze restaurants for over 50+yrs and we absolutely love the ice cream. Definitely recommend the Foster Freeze ice cream. There's a parking lot at this location. Staff is friendly. Portions were smaller than expected. We ordered hot fudge sundaes and the ice cream to fudge ratio was petit, small portion ice cream and very little hot fudge not enough to have some in every bite, left half i e cream with no hot fudge to finish.

Decent place - staff are decent, food is decent, location is decent (easy to park at and never too busy). It could be great, but as it is, it’s not a bad spot.

Take-away only, there is not seating or indoor area. Medium sized parking lot; there are usually places to park. Vegetarian options on the food menu, and lots of soft-serve dessert items. Laundromat in the same parking lot makes for a great laundry experience.

Cheap but for a reason. Ice cream is watery and choc dip has a cloying waxy aftertaste. You get what you pay for.

Just average. They blended the cookie dough pieces in my twister instead of leaving them whole. Shame! Not to mention, random people sitting in the parking lot.

Simple, roadside grill and ice cream. A bit of a shadow of it's glory days, and lower quality than the hipster places that abound, but still tasty when you're in the mood for old school.

The last few times I went there, there was a problem with my order. I ordered a chili burger with nothing but chili only. I get to my destination and find they put cheese on it. It's too far to go back. Last time, I ordered a large vanilla shake, and it did not taste the same. The price is not consistent. I order the same thing every time, and I have seen the price inconsistent. I'm going to try one more time, and if the shake is not the same, goodbye.

E
Eleanor

Ordered a coffee flavored shake, but honestly, it tasted more like caramel at first sip. Subsequent sips lost the caramel flavor and was now unidentifiable, but it was sweet. Discarded what remained (half) at home. Will try a different flavor next time. Maybe the syrup was less than fresh?

J
Joey Howell

Ehh....I've been coming to this place for 20+ years. Yesterday I ordered a bacon cheeseburger with onion rings. I was the only person in line and no one was waiting for their food. He forgot the BACON! The lettuce seemed old and withered...The tomatoes were as if they had been cut a week ago. Bummer, I love this place. It is definitely gone downhill.

B
Brian Ferdman

It's sort of like an old Dairy Queen, featuring mediocre fast food (that isn't served particularly fast) and ice cream-centric treats. None of it will blow you away, and while this isn't a bad option on a hot day, there's absolutely no reason to go out of your way to visit this shack.

The food was fine but the staff didn't notify me before purchasing that I have to pay for ranch. They then said that they couldn't charge my card for 50 cents. They tried to make it better by saying I could have ketchup, however I am allergic to ketchup. It just felt like they didn't want to do any extra work.

K
Keith Johnson

Gave it a 3 for food, because the chocolate shack was pretty dang good. The burger got a single star, the fries a 4. Service and attitude got a 3, atmosphere a 2 or 3, but that depends on if the sun is coming or leaving. Their burgers used to be better than good, Now it's stale and mushy buns, withered tomato and lettuce, tasteless fake meat patties. Oh, well, I'll try them again in a year or two.

They have to work on costumer service plus i dont like expensive but cheap hamburgers-ill be back during the summer for ice crean or a milk shake but thats it. Plus the inside needs deep cleaning as a chef its eazy to spot build up.

It's been cool in the past visits but this trip was not ok. The lady was rushing me to order but there was no one in line behind me only to serve me a cold burger for 14$

D
Daniel

A waste of money and time. Everytime ive gone to this location its been bad. Ordered chili cheese fries and a hot fudge sundae last time. The chili cheese fries didnt even taste like there was chili on it, no meat no beans just sauce that tasted like taco sauce and barely any cheese. The hot fudge on the Sundae wasnt even hot and there was barely any on it. Paid $11 for 2 items its not worth it.

Jessica Ramirez Jefferson

My husband got food poisoning and the jam burger was the last thing he ate that could have got him sick. He was out of commission for 3days and had to miss work. Was there Friday evening . I usually love this place the dipped cones are my classic favorite but never sure the actual food only desserts. I will stick to dessert from now on. Won't be back for a while tho.

M
Me Myself

I got food from a Fosters Freeze for the first time cause I had just spent a couple hours deep cleaning my car across the street at the Solar Car Wash. Had a craving for a grilled cheese. What I got was basically an attempt at making one with a hair dryer.. The bread was still soft and barely brown and I could still feel the individual cheese slices as I chewed. I was also surprised at the cost - roughly $9.00?? Never getting food here again (learned my lesson), but I will keep coming for shakes and root beer floats.

Ok, at first I wasn't gonna do it.... but when you've been a patron for 52 year's!!! And I'm 53 😤😡😤😡😤🤬! I can't let it slide when all my mother did was, ask for more hot fudge. We ordered 2 medium hot fudge sundaes. There was barely enough fudge to even be seen by the naked eye. So, she asked for more and offered to pay extra. The woman with the dyed blonde hair went off on her, telling her that there was chocolate in there and that she'd put one scoop in there. And that was enough. No one there has ever been that RUDE and Obnoxious in all my mother's years of going there, and she's been going since 1955. Mom's is 75 yrs old and deserves more respect than that!! They've officially lost 3 customers! I gave 2 stars cause the ice cream still rocks. And what sucked.... THE HOT FUDGE 😋.

While the food was good, the service wasn't as great. First we ordered 3 sodas but the clerk only gave us 2 and we had to order a 3rd. Then they didn't give me my god damn onion rings. Shall not be returning.

B
Bianca Lee

Don't go here We ordered a caramel sundae, a chocolate soft serve in a cup and a cone. Lady gave us 2 cones and a vanilla soft serve with chocolate sauce. She refused to give us what we originally ordered and yelled at us for wanting her to give us what we ordered.

This is one of the most disgusting places I’ve ever been to. I ordered a burger combo and the soda was completely flat and the ranch dressing was literally chunky. And they charged me for it! Y’all. DO NOT GO HERE. I’m a little worried I might have contracted food poisoning. Pray for me.

We did not have a great experience at Fosters Freeze. There was only one woman working, so we waited in line for 10 minutes to place our order. In that time we watched the woman yell at two different customers for not understanding what she was asking. She was rude to us when we ordered, commenting on how it was inconvenient of us to change a small to a medium. We then had to wait 20 minutes for our orders. Mine was made incorrectly (coffee ice cream instead of chocolate) and my partner's milkshake was almost all ice. It was like a slushie. We were both frustrated by that point and didn't want to deal with the poor customer service so we just left. We will not be going back.

Was on my way to do some laundry and desperately needed to break a 20 just into some 5’s or ones. I asked really nicely and the kid rudely said he couldn’t give me change and looked at me like I was a crazy person trying to scam him or something. So much for helping out your local neighbors. I was excited to try that place out while I was doing laundry right next door but forget it now!!

About a week ago, my boyfriend and I stopped by for dessert. He ordered a rocky road shake, knowing that they typically contain almonds or walnuts. However, this location uses peanuts instead and does not disclose this information. When he asked them of his ice cream had peanuts in it, as he is allergic to them, the women working there were insanely rude and refused to think that information should be disclosed.

Watched cashier handle money then walk straight to the back and pull food out of freezer and hold it in her bare unwashed hands. Cook had no gloves or hairnet or hat on as she went between orders she was cooking either. I changed my mind on cooked food and didn't buy a meal after watching this

How can a restaurant be that SLOW and get the order so WRONG? Let me tell you how. A, the cashier taking in orders speaks broken English and doesnt quite understand normal English. On top of that she rushes through the order process. She didnt listen to a word I said. How hard is it to understand No sause No tomatoes? I haf to repeat myself 5 times. All i wanted was a #2 with a pepsi. I got the #2 but not how i wanted it. Took almost 25 minutes to get the 1st order. Wrong. Then another 15 for the right order, so i thought. Turns out i didnt get half my order. Thanks for stealing my money foster freeze. Never again will i go there. Learn English and dont steal from customers. Its impossible to give 0 stars. Thats what you deserve.

Way too expensive compared to other Foster Freeze, on top of that they don't except anything other than cash, and nothing over $20. A smile with the service would've made the experience a bit more favorable too. Lol

$20 flat for one burger (no combo) because I asked for one extra patty. Non itemized receipt. Avoid.

I don't think the math adds up here. We got two cheeseburgers and a shake and it added to $33. The receipts are not itemized so we can't check what the cost of each was. Dr. Pepper drink did not taste like Dr. Pepper. There was an eyelash or some kind of hair on my burger. Overall, I think it would be better to go to another fast food place.

I would give 0 stars if I could. I have been coming here 2-3 times a week for a year and get the same order every time. Today, they messed up my order and gave me something that contains an item I am allergic to. This is no problem since I know mistakes happen, but when I told them what I'd actually ordered (what I get every time) they refused to correct it or replace the item and just repeatedly told me to take the wrong order. This involved both employees raising their voices and yelling at me while also refusing to correct a $2-3 mistake. I would say over the past year I spent around $50-$75 a week here, so to lose a customer over a $2 replacement and to yell at your customer is ridiculous. I will never come back and I recommend nobody go here if you value kind customer service.

Fosters imposter. They need to go to another fosters freeze to see how it's done. :[

We used to go to foster freeze all the time and there food was always good. Now they reduced the amount of fries by ALOT and the double decker burger only had 1 piece of bacon on it and the patty tasted like a frozen patty we will not be going there again and have the nerve to give us 1 napkin per combo ridiculous

Ordered one of the cheesecake twisters and the server was super rude and would only give me one napkin (even though the twister was overflowing and made a mess everywhere). To make matters worse, the cheesecake chunks were moldy! I noticed they tasted awful and realized after looking more closely many of them had green spots on them. I hope I don't get food poisoning, definitely not coming back again :(

-Short Version: The clerk and cook lied to us about the green mold growing on our bun, then told us bread mold is different and safe to eat compared to regular mold, refused to refund my money and tried to make us another grilled cheese with the same mold bread loaf from before. I finally got a refund, but it was a whole lot of hassle for no reason. I would give them 0 stars if possible. My entire family had food poisoning the next day. -Long Version: Took my girlfriend here to grab some food for us and my mom. She ordered a grilled cheese, ate half of it before she saw the mold. We took it back and the clerk told us very plainly it wasn't mold until the woman cook in the back came over to see what was wrong. She also told us it wasn't mold, but like 2 minutes later admitted that it was mold, but that it was somehow safe to eat "because i cooked it and bread mold is different". Argued with her about getting my money back, which she blatantly ignored and tried to make my gf another moldy grilled cheese. Had to argue with her again for like 3 minutes before they gave us the money back for the sandwich. Also, the very next day we had food poisoning so bad that my diarrhea didn't subside for 2 days afterward. Will never be coming here again. I would suggest everybody who eats here to check their food before making the mistake of eating at this establishment. Not to mention everything is hella overpriced here, for 3 people it came out to like $45! Ridiculous...

This is one of the most disgusting places I’ve ever been to. I ordered a burger combo and the soda was completely flat and the ranch dressing was literally chunky. And they charged me for it! Y’all. DO NOT GO HERE. I’m a little worried I might have contracted food poisoning. Pray for me.

Avoid this place. After eating there I had really bad food poisoning

I have no idea what the food tastes like because they were out of everything we asked for. I also could barely hear the cashier because he refused to speak up even after asking him to repeat himself 3 times each question. This was easily some of the worst customer service I've ever experienced.
