Rhythm's Chicken & Waffles Owner To Open Ice Cream Shop In San Diego's Pacific Beach

November 6, 2021

The owner of Rhythm's Chicken & Waffles has taken over a nearby space for the opening of Rhythm & Desserts, an ice cream shop launching later this month in San Diego's Pacific Beach. 

Brian Foxworth started out his culinary career working in kitchens around San Diego before opening his fried chicken fueled food truck business in 2017. Foxworth began his entrepreneurial journey at San Diego High School, always having an interest in owning his own business. He even helped get fried chicken from a local business on the school's lunch menu and also ran a small record studio recording artists from around San Diego County. After a couple ventures, Foxworth started a company called Green Team Recycling where he put recycling bins on school campuses and collected the cans and bottles after lunches. He went on to receive a contract with the San Diego Padres to clean the stadium, which grew the company to over 300 employees.

In mid 2019, Brian teamed up with his mother Collette Foxworth and opened Rhythm's Chicken & Waffles in the heart of San Diego's Pacific Beach neighborhood. The music-themed eatery quickly had lines out the door of hungry patrons wanting to sample comfort food dishes like the popular chicken and waffles sandwiches, as well as hand-pressed burgers, bacon wrapped hotdogs, loaded chicken fries & tots, chicken sandwiches and more. Earlier this year, Rhythms was featured on the Netflix original series Fresh, Fried & Crispy. 

The Foxworths have taken over the neighboring unit two door downs from Rhythm's to open Rhythm & Desserts. Expected to open later this month, the dessert shop will have a menu centered around waffle ice cream sandwiches made with fresh made waffles and rotating ice cream flavors. 
 
Rhythm & Desserts is anticipated to open later this month at 1140 Garnet Avenue in San Diego's Pacific Beach. For more information, visit rhythmanddesserts.com.
