Come upon this little on accident since I wanted something sweet, and boy, was I glad! They really do make all their ice creams in-house. They have the classic flavors with some delicious flavors that they call exotic. It's great that they let us sample their various ice cream flavors and give recommendations.I ended up with the coconut flavor, my friend got the mint and chip, my husband ordered the birthday cake milkshake. The single service is small, but it's more than enough since it's so delicious.Will definitely be coming back here when we visit this town. More...

The coffee with ice cream is amazing! It's so much better than regular coffee with creamer! I highly recommend this place!

The food here is rich in flavor and thankfully there are a lot of veggie/vegan options. But the true attraction is the ice cream! The flavors are so nostalgic of desi Kulfi and Falooda from India. They use real kesar in their saffron pistachio. So delicious definitely taking my mom here. More...

I was shopping in the Niles District on a sleepy Tuesday (I live in LA) and started to feel hunger pangs but doubted there was anyplace HEALTHY to eat. Wrong! I found this little gem of a corner cafe that had Vegan options. My little pressed vegan panini was delish and then I topped it off with the most tasty vegan chocolate ice cream. A quiet setting, with free WiFi and VERY friendly staff made this the perfect lunchtime stop. There are loads of regular ice cream options and sandwich options and it's a nice clean setting (with nice, not so loud oldies music). Definitely worth the stop! More...

We are new to the neighborhood and this place got us through several days ofbreakfast while we waited for our fridge. My husband likes the ice cream and my kids and I like the sandwiches. My husband and I have come here at least 5 times in 2 months! The staff bring food to you even if it's to go and you wait. Nice seating and location for people watching. The place was packed after Niles Canyon Stroll and Roll. Might be a tad expensive for artisanal ice cream but that's what you pay for for unique, vegan flavors! Enjoy! More...

I love this place! They have good ice cream with all natural ingredients. I do not like too sweet dessert. I come here only for the ice cream, especially "Saffron Pistachio". I tried Earl Grey Tea and Espresso Coffee too. All of them tastes good to me. I visited here three times but never waited in a long line for ice cream. Good dessert place! More...

This place is a hidden gem!!! Me and 4 friends drove 15 minutes for the ice cream to celebrate. On the way, we passed multiple places and all 4 of my friends were kicking and screaming the entire time (figuratively). Then after having the flavors (butterscotch toffee, custard apple, berry matcha, almond joy) , the people who were complaining now plan to come here ONLY for ice cream. You gotta come try this place at least once and I promise you will be converted. PS I have two pints ordered for pick up with friends at this time... just a heads up, it's pretty addictive! More...

One of the best experience i have ever had in a ice cream shop. Emily is super friendly and knowledgeable with the products she was selling. Ice cream can be a hit or miss but she sold me the best by far ice cream ive tried. I cant find a lot of places that has a combo of good product and customer service and this place both killed it! Thank you so much. More...

Everything was delicious! I wanted to order every flavor. And I tried about 5 before I felt bad for people behind me. I got the Aztec chocolate with espresso (affogato) and it was perfect even on a cold night.  The woman (I assume she's the owner) was very happy to help us and was kindly training the new guy. She was even great with my picky mother who was happy to hear they had pints available as well as door dash. I'll definitely come back. More...

We love to come here every Saturday after a good hike. Perfect healthy food and drinks to recover from an intense hike at a good price! They are almost always fast and they are absolutely always super friendly! They have a small outside seating area where you can be with your dogs! They are nice to dogs! Needless say they have all sorts of good ice cream for any type of special diet! Overall a panini and a drink will be around 11-15$. More...

If you're looking for pure & natural ingredients this is the place for. Enjoy unique flavors like Saffron Pistachio, Rose, Honey Lavender, Orange Cardomom.  They don't use artificial colors or flavors. I really loved my double scoop of Strawberry Balsamic & Vegan Chocolate!!! Even more impressive was knowing that Supbraja's  motivation for making her own ice cream are her kids & making sure that they only eat plant based ingredients. More...

On a hot night in Fremont, there aren't many options outside of the Baskin Robbins/Cold Stones that everyone has tried. I was excited to find Nature's Ice Cream and to be honest, I've had it on my bookmarked list for awhile. My friends and I stopped by here craving something sweet after we went to a food truck festival. I love that they have a lot of healthier options for ice cream. I'm sure it makes everyone feel a liiiiiittle less guilty. They definitely had a lot of fresh flavors on the fruity or flowery side. I'm personally more of a chocolate/coffee sweet kind of girl but I went with their mango (non-vegan, because they have a vegan option as well) and it was pretty good! My friends liked their honey lavender ice creams as well. I'll have to try the food next time because there were a lot of options on the menu that looks good.This ice cream shop is located just down the street from Nile's Ice Cream and Sweets so you do have options. However, Niles had quite a longer line and their ice cream is more expensive. The flip side is that they also have more options so really it just goes down to what you'd like more. Both very good options though and I'm sure I'll be back again to try more flavors here! More...

Boyfriend loves coming here after the gym! Healthy choices and friendly service. I personally think the food and coffee are just okay. May be because I like more flavor in my food. I have to say I did like the chipotle quesadilla, it had a bit of spiciness and the right amount of onions. More...

Sooo good. My gf and I came here for the first time and had banana walnut and honey lavender. Both were really good. The owner said they use real bananas and not banana flavoring and it tasted really refreshing. I could taste the brightness of the fruit, reminded me of banana nut bread. Honey lavender was very good, I tasted a light ginger flavor that added a lightness to the flavor. More...

My family and I stopped in for some ice cream at Nature's today and we weren't disappointed. There were classic flavors like cookies and cream and pistachio. There were also more unique flavors like rose petal, honey lavendar, key lime pie and strawberry balsamic. The prices were pretty reasonable. A single scoop is $3.49, a double scoop is $4.99 and a triple scoop is $5.99. You can get your ice cream in a cup, a cake cone or a waffle cone ($1 extra). I got a single scoop of cookies and cream in a waffle cone. Delicious and a great portion size.The interior was spacious and had lots of seating. We grabbed the stools by the window and had a lot of fun people watching. The location can't be beaten. It's right across the street from the train station parking lot, so finding a spot for your car won't be a problem. It's also right in the middle of a long row of antique shops, making this a perfect pit stop for ice cream and refreshments during a long shopping day. More...

We love this place!  We have been here about every other week since they opened.  The ice cream is outstanding!  They have very unique flavors -- not your typical Baskin Robbins flavor offerings.  We always get the waffle cone.  It's $1 more than a regular cone, but it is worth it.  They are always fresh and crunchy.  We always enjoy coming here and walking down Niles Blvd.  It has such a old fashioned town feel.  It's just a nice pleasant outing when we come here on a warm summer evening.

Ice cream is good, I really enjoyed the lavender and also orange cardamom. My kids loved the Unicorn Vanilla flavor. I dont think their sandwiches/food are worthwhile, the food seems confused on what it wants to be. Is it regular sandwiches or some Indian fusion? Whatever it is, it doesn't do it well. The service was great, which is for the fourth star. But I wouldnt come here for food. I discovered this place through a Yelp Elite event More...

This such a fun little addition to the Niles area! I love this area of Fremont and grew up coming to the area for tea down the street. I love that this place is vegan friendly and all their ice cream is handmade. All their flavors are so unique and I've never come across anything similar at other micro creameries. Their orange cardamon is pretty good and they have a flavor called Paan based on an Indian dish that tastes like licorice. My favorite is their chocolate raspberry and lavender. Their paninis are pretty good as well. I've tried their bbq chicken, pizza-ini and black bean ones.  The bbq one was my favorite and it's packed full of chicken and sauce. The pizza one really tastes like pizza and I really enjoyed the black bean one for vegetarians/vegans. It had a nice spice to it. I also tried there ultimate Hawaiian smoothie and it was great but I would personally prefer it with more pineapple and thicker. More...

Came to try this place through a Yelp event and I was able to try two flavors of ice cream.

I was quite pleased with the amount of interesting flavors they had to offer including Lavender and Rose!I was watching them make smoothies and I was pleasantly surprised to find that they used good quality ingredients such as Fage greek yogurt!It's also awesome there is plenty of street parking as well as a parking lot across the street!

Five star review for the ice cream. So many delicious flavors with unique combinations as well as traditional flavors (chocolate). Always at least one vegan option and all flavors are made without dyes or artificial ingredients. Cookies N Cream is creamy with chunks of Oreo-type cookies. There's one called "Unicorn Vanilla" that is always a hit with my daughter. We come here frequently and are always pleased with the consistent quality and interesting favors.Menu also includes lunch fare (salads/toasts, etc) and coffee options.Great way to support a local business this summer (and year round) More...

Great brunch place! Coffee, Ice cream and food here is quite good. They have amazing almond milk lattes and I love all the delicious toast options. They keep adding more to the menu too! Only reason I have 4/5 stars instead of 5/5 is I wish they used real silverware, cups, and dishes instead of disposable for eating in. The disposable plates are compostable but they use plastic silverware which is a bit of a waste. More...

I didn't want to come here. I was enjoying the Niles car show and was heading towards Bronco Billys for pizza but the line was way too long. So I settled and decided to try here and I'm really glad I did. First off, I had their Hawaiian smooth, which was amazing. My girlfriend ordered the caprese panini and I ordered the pizza panini (because I was in a pizza mood), and I was in euphoria when I took a bite of my sandwich. It was really good. I never usually have good panini experiences, but this one was probably the top. Nice little shop in Niles, but it's pretty hidden from everything else. I haven't tried their ice cream, but it seems to be very popular when I ordering my food. More...

I was walking around Fremont looking for a fun snack and/or somewhere to rest my weary feet, and I saw the ice cream cone hanging over the door. I love ice cream and was intrigued, and walked in and found out it was closed, as the owner has been a little understaffed lately and I think the person she was depending on to come in and work while she took care of her kid called in sick. Luckily, she said she'd be happy to serve me some ice cream, and patiently waited as I tried out their flavors. I loved the array of flavors they had - this is not your basic ice cream shop (as lovely as basic ice cream is). This place seems to really focus on being organic and using real ingredients, as well as more interesting ones than vanilla, strawberry, or chocolate. She had a lavender, matcha berry, saffron, and some other flavors that I unfortunately can't remember that also have a hint of more South Asian/Persian spices. I tried a couple that were delicious, and ultimately settled on the rose which was so good. Some ice cream, no matter how yummy, you get tired after about a scoop. But the texture of this was perfect and creamy and the flavor so good that I definitely could've eaten a dangerous amount of this.They seem to be hiring and a little in transition, but definitely give this place a chance. I didn't get to try any of their real food, but the ice cream is so so fantastic (and believe me, I've eaten at and reviewed a lot of ice cream places), and it seems to be run by a nice woman who is starting a relatively new business. Support local! Support women-owned businesses, especially women of color. More...
