This is one of the spots that was a go to on my trip to Palm Springs…read more I'm so glad I was able to come visit and try their date smoothie. I visited on a Thursday when they had a bunch of vendors out side on the street. Their service was great. They were pretty busy with visitors walking by. My friend and I got date smoothies. She also got a scoop of another ice cream as well. The smoothie was so thick and creamy. It was the perfect dessert after a meal. Unfortunately, my friend did not love the smoothie, but I was able to take hers and save it in the freezer for another day. I'm definitely thinking about the next time I can stop by!

I think Lappert's is the 1 ice cream shop in town that keeps rather late hours. When we arrived, I…read morefeel like the gentleman working behind the counter looked kind of overwhelmed. There was a long line for Minh. Lots of people wanted their cold sweet treats before the night ended. No matter, he kept on plugging along and kept helping everybody. He asked that people be patient and said that he appreciated that people are coming in and that they were being as patient as possible. I have a feeling we all just understood that it is what it is. Their prices are very reasonable. I feel like they're about the same as every other ice cream shop, especially the local ones. I am very glad that they were open when we came in. There are not very many places where you can find freshly dipped chocolate dipped/covered bananas. I happen to love a chocolate covered banana every now and then. Apparently this past visit was the time. It was so good. My kiddo had shaved ice. That was phenomenal. Their flavors are very good. And although at first, I thought that the amount of syrup that the store associate was putting on was going to be too much, it was not. It was sweet, but not over the top. There was enough syrup, but it wasn't like drinking a bowl full of juice at the end. Literally, just enough of everything. Typically we ask for our shaved eyes to be prepared with mochi Or condensed milk but this time, no just the classic syrups were good. They have quite a selection. There was a flavor or two I believe that I was looking for, but didn't seem to be available. That's fine. They were about 50 others to choose from. I can't remember what my husband ordered but he's got something and was quite happy with it. Although it was very hot out, there were a lot of people sitting outside in front of the store. A gentleman there apparently kind of parks himself on one of those benches and plays awesome instrumental music on his guitar on the streets in the downtown area of Palm Springs. He's actually very good. I can't remember what his Instagram name is, but I do remember my family tipping him for entertaining us, but also following him right away. He was really good. That made for a super nice experience at the ice cream shop. And if by chance the owner of this particular location does read my review, I really just want you to know how hard working your ice cream shop employees are. They were so awesome. They were really doing the most to try to help all of us and make us all happy. This was quite a treat. I was really glad that we stopped by. Oh, and before I forget to mention, parking is available in the downtown area all up and down the street. Considering we were at the ice cream shop fairly late, there was more than enough parking everywhere.

Got a half and half with mint chocolate chip and cherry almond. Both were really good…read more Mint chocolate chip had a clean mint taste. Cherry almond was smooth with a nice cherry taste.

The texture was a solid 10/10--super smooth with the perfect consistency. I'd definitely say this is one of the best premium shakes I've had. It also helped me survive the triple-digit heat outside.

It's a small shop with a few tables, making it a nice spot to sit and escape the heat. When we ordered at the counter, we were offered samples of their toffee and popcorn. They were so good I would've taken some home if we'd had a cool place to store them during the drive home. We ordered the toffee latte. At $10, it's a little pricey, though I understand it's made with their specialty toffee syrup. It was definitely espresso forward, which I didn't mind, but I wish the toffee flavor came through more instead of just a subtle hint with each sip. Even so, it was still a pretty decent latte and worth a visit when walking downtown.
