The Baked Bear specializes in build-your-own ice cream sandwiches — pick your cookie, pick your ice cream, and customize from there, which makes it a genuinely fun activity as much as a dessert stop, especially for kids. It’s a short drive from the property and a great way to cap off a beach day or an evening walk along Mission Boulevard. The build-your-own format means everyone in the group can get exactly what they want, which helps avoid the usual “where should we get dessert” debate. Expect it to be busiest on warm evenings and weekends.
