About the Business

Specialties

The Penny Ice Creamery is the only ice cream shop in Santa Cruz making delicious ice cream completely from scratch in house. Our rotating selection of flavors feature local, seasonal, and organic ingredients served fresh daily, and we never use pre-mixed bases, stabilizers, or preservatives. Stop by our shop to view the artisan production process and try our latest scoops.

History

Established in 2010.

Our historical building is located amidst a collection of shops on Cedar Street in downtown Santa Cruz. From behind glass you can watch the ice cream being mixed, pasteurized, and frozen in what is possibly the smallest state licensed dairy manufacturing plant in California. Our clean and stylish dining area has seating for singles, couples, and groups, and from our comfortable patio you can enjoy a delicious ice cream cone or sundae and watch the activity on the street.

We were told when in Santa Cruz, do as the locals do and that means getting ice cream at Marianne's. Glad we followed that advice. We visited twice; first...
