On our way home from a hard Day's work wrestling one-armed bandits. Our small group Ma, Me, my brother and my sister who is my brother's wife.(you figure it out) wanted some good ice cream. Thankfully we found the yum yum ice cream shop. They had more flavors then our family tree has branches. If you like something different and good check it out.. IT'S YUM YUM Okay so maybe that review was a little out there. On a serious ice cream review this place serves up a healthy scoop of ice cream or more depending on your sweet tooth on top of that they have some flavors you would never think of among other types of goodies! So if you're ever in willows CA or getting ready to pass by stop at the yum yum ice cream shop they'll serve you with a smile

My boyfriend, daughter and I recently moved here and absolutely love this shop! Ellos son tan amables y acogedores! Their agua de pepino is super refreshing but if you prefer sweet drinks, ask to mix the horchata with strawberry’s and cream! They also have AMAZING mango ice cream (Mexican style)! This is the place to visit on your next trip to Willows for some ice cream, but for the locals, it’s the right spot every time you have cravings!

Regret not taking pics. Just wanted to say that the ice cream and fresh fruit juices were really good. The people working there are really nice and all too hospitable in letting you sample different flavors of their ice creams, even the fresh juices. As soon as i got my cup of ice cream i was all too eager to taste it and it devoured it before i got around to thinking about grabbing a pic. Anyways, small town. Their only ice cream shop. A damn good one. Was well worth the visit; i’d come back again cause it really tasted home maid and fresh. Was heading back to the bay area after our weekend getaway in Red Bluff. I like the way they seemed to greet you like family as you walk into their business. Will think of them next time i head through this town. I tried the agua de pepino which someone recommended on here; i had to ask them what it was cause i have to brush up on my Spanish (cucumber lime water). It was very flavorful and tasted great. I’d also recommend. Also i had the vanilla caramel ice cream and mango (lactose free) sorbet. I mean; the fact that you can taste before u buy; there’s good chances you won’t be disappointed. Just a fyi; they take credit/interact but there’s a tiny service charge if you don’t use cash per transaction.

Huge scoops of quality ice cream. The Rocky Road and Cookies n Cream were delicious, and we loved taking our cones for a walk through downtown and to the parks nearby. I’m happy there’s good ice cream in Willows now :)
