Every college community has at least one establishment cherished by students campus-wide. The only two requirements for this coveted honor are good food and cheap prices. At UCLA, the honor goes to Diddy Riese. The name doesn't sound like much, but students in-the-know make study break pilgrimages to snack on unbelievably cheap fresh-baked cookies, muffins, brownies, Dreyers ice cream, hot dogs and cookie ice cream sandwiches -- with many treats under 50 cents or a buck. Sorority presidents stock up on dozens of goods for their houses, while USC students forgo school pride and line up in enemy territory for a taste. The spanking white, clean interior brings back so many memories for alumnae that they still go back after they've graduated. Those who know the place best avoid it during finals -- unless their sweet-tooth craving is so intense as to make joining the long line extending outside the store a necessity. -- Phuong-Cac Nguyen

YUMMY
MONTYII - 09/23/2008I couldnt believe the prices! I had an ice cream cookie sandwich and brownies to go! SO I paid more for parking and gas to get there, but it was worth the trip! BROWNIES was Yummy!
Try to get there when theres activities in the street so you can spend couple hours to digest your first trip because trust me you'll want another ice cream cookie sandwich before you leave the area!!!Add CommentThe Best in Town!

Diddy Riese has to be one of the best deals in Westwood. It has brought me down many times from the campus to get my cookie fix. But they have other things tooo, dont forget to try their hot dogs and ice cream ... just dont have them together!

The real deal
Ago567a - 06/06/2008Just as good as it was when I was at UCLA when they opened in the 80's. I always make one of two stops in Westwood. Diddy's for cookies or Stan's for their Reese's donut or blueberry buttermilk cake donut. Long lines, but they move suprisingly fast.
Well worth the drive, the lines, and the calories...Still the best after all these years!
CDCapanna - 05/16/2008Found this place in the late 80's, when they were .25. What a deal! My wife couldn't believe it and now we take our 2 girls there (7 & 9), parking is tough but, worth it. .......... they should have bought the corner spot and done a DRIVE TRU!!!!
Worth the drive and wait!!!
dpr7149797441 - 02/20/2007There are no words to decribe how absolutely yummy these cookies are. I graduated a few years ago and moved away but I'm willing to drive over 50 miles for these cookies!!! You can get an ice cream sandwich, 2 cookies and a carton of milk or 3 cookies for a dollar!! I remember when they were a quarter each. I'd pay a dollar for each!
Cheap Thrill
carolineegbrown - 03/27/2006You can't get anything these days for under a dollar, let alone THREE AMAZING COOKIES! They're five times better than Mrs. Fields (and cost a lot less). If you're in Westwood, you HAVE to go!
BEST ICE CREAM SANDWICH!
