Honey Pokey LA, located at Westfield Century City Mall, offers a delightful take on New Zealand’s beloved Hokey Pokey ice cream, a flavor invented in 1953 that’s become their signature. This isn’t your typical soft serve—it’s crafted in-store, to-order, using premium Californian ice cream or a non-dairy base that’s impressively rich and creamy, closely mimicking the real deal. The Hokey Pokey itself is a standout, blending light, crunchy golden toffee (made fresh in-house) into a smooth, velvety soft serve that’s both nostalgic and indulgent. What sets Honey Pokey LA apart is their commitment to freshness and customization. Every flavor, dairy or non-dairy, is blended on the spot, resulting in a richer, creamier texture than standard soft serve. The non-dairy option is a pleasant surprise, delivering a robust flavor that doesn’t feel like a compromise, though they note potential traces of dairy due to the blending process, so those with severe allergies should take caution. Speaking of allergies, they’re transparent about nuts being used on-site, which is a thoughtful heads-up. Overall, Honey Pokey LA delivers a unique, high-quality dessert experience with a fun nod to New Zealand’s ice cream heritage. The Hokey Pokey is a must-try for its perfect balance of sweet, toffee crunch and creamy softness. If you’re at the mall, it’s a fantastic spot to satisfy your sweet tooth!

A little pricy, but the ice cream was good. (It reminded me more of soft serve.) The size of a small cone is decent, and was the right portion. Overall, it's sweet but not too sweet and the addition of candied fruit for the Orange Chocolate was perfect.
