I finally stopped in to see what all the hype was about. The first thing I noticed was that the place felt a little cramped. It's packed with old memorabilia and collectibles, which I'm sure a lot of people enjoy, but for me it made the place feel smaller than it really is. The ice cream was very good, although I wouldn't say they had an overwhelming number of flavors. Still, there was enough variety to find something you'd like. Then again, who doesn't like good ice cream? Even though the place was busy, we had no problem finding a seat. The service was excellent, and the staff was friendly. When you serve a good product, a crowd comes with it. Overall, I enjoyed it, but I wouldn't call it a home run. I'm not sure if it's somewhere I'd go back to on a regular basis, but I'm glad I tried it. I had thought about taking a younger person there for a birthday, but I think they'd probably have more fun at Jaxson's in Dania Beach. The atmosphere there is more my style. Overall, good ice cream, excellent service, just a little too crowded and cluttered for my taste. read more

Honestly, I wasn't much of a fan. Parking can be a little tricky, there is a parking lot, but it's shared by all the merchants in the plaza. You have the option to order at the window outside, or, go into the shop to order. The moment you walk in, it very very overwhelming. Tons of trinkets, posters, colors, signs and memorabilia's and figurines everywhere! The more you look, the more you'll see. Staff seemed like they were there just for their paychecks, and not really caring for the customer service or offering their opinion or recommendations, the night we visited there was a good amount of patrons. There's seating off the right side of the shop and a few towards the back. They have a very wide selection of ice cream flavors. I settled for a dulce deleche, and it was just ok. We ordered that, and I took some pictures and left. The interior was too much for me, personally. Way too much going on. read more

When you go to Cherry Smash you get more than an ice cream you get an experience. I went when it was still decorated for Christmas and I believe it is impossible to see all the decorations. I enjoyed seeing all the families having a great time. Service was pleasant and my double scoop cone was presented to me quickly. They have several flavors of ice cream as well as seasonal flavors. They have cones, sundaes and desserts. I enjoyed my cone. They have a take out window. They also have an ice cream truck that can be hired for events. I will visit again during another season to see different decorations read more

Cherry Smash is a MUST!! With every holiday, you have an ice cream experience. Right now it's a winter wonderland with an interactive encounter. Besides the ice cream being extremely delicious. Many many flavors to choose from. Decorations galore outside with photo spots. It was even snowing while we waited in line. Be aware that during the holidays you'll have to wait in a long line. The inside has so many unique antiques and holiday decorations. The wait is worth it because you will see Lionel trains, Reindeer, Santa Claus, Mickey Mouse, expensive collectibles, etc. I definitely will be back soon and for sure the next holiday to see their decorations. Of course, don't forget the ice cream. read more

If the holidays had a sugar rush, it would absolutely happen at Cherry Smash. This place goes all in on festive cheer--twinkling lights, gingerbread houses, over-the-top décor, and a vibe that feels like you stepped straight into a holiday snow globe (Florida edition, of course). The desserts are pure joy--layered, indulgent, and unapologetically extra. Every spoonful feels like a celebration, and the drinks are just as fun and colorful as the surroundings. It's the kind of spot where you can't help but smile before you even take a bite. What really makes Cherry Smash shine, though, is the team. Quick, friendly, and genuinely helpful, they keep things moving even when it's busy and do it all with great energy. You never feel rushed, just welcomed--and that matters. Perfect for families, friends, date nights, or anyone who loves holiday magic with their sweets. Come for the desserts, stay for the cheer, and don't forget your camera--Cherry Smash understood the festive assignment. read more

Do you feed sad and had a bad day? Don't feel that way, go get some ice cream. Believe it or not, I think no day can be sad with some ice cream and a good company. Of course I ordered the top one, brownie and ice cream and cherry it's a big cup so you definitely share it! It was amazing plus the Halloween decorations. Service was fast, but it's busy so be ready to make a line (20min) specially during holidays. You also can order to go if you don't want to go inside the store. If you wonder if was worth it, yes! It was. Waiting wasn't that bad and if you have a child spirit haha you will enjoy it! So no regrets. read more

Halloween Season full force at Cherry Smash! Cherry Smash is a really popular spot for their seasonal theme and vintage decor. Their store offers a variety of ice cream flavors to choose from. You can choose from one to three scoops sundae or cone and pick your own favorite flavors. We opted for a banana split this time which included pistachio, rocky road and dulce de lece with pineapple and hot fudge toppings. A burst of flavors for a $14.00 banana split. Their seasonal decor includes Christmas, 4th of July and Halloween. They really go all out with their theme decor from the interior of the store looking like a real Haunted House to the outside area all deck out with lights and all the popular Halloween characters from Beetlejuice, Nightmare before Christmas to the spooky and scary Annabelle. Great place to bring the whole family as you can enjoy delicious ice cream while enjoying all the seasonal fun decor. Be prepared to wait in line. We were there on a Friday and the line was out the door all the way to the parking lot. Place is small and a bit tight to walk around inside. We didn't want to wait in line for entry to the establishment so we ordered at the Walk-up window very convenient. We took a quick walk inside for photos then ate our ice scream at a table outside. The staff was great. They were very patient and friendly. I will come back in December to check out the Christmas decor. read more

We were introduced to the delicious Dubai chocolate sundae. WOW what a treat, a little expensive at $20. dollars for a one sundae but good. Service was fun and entertaining with the girls behind the ice cream counter making jokes. The place is over the top with Halloween decorations. It really puts you in the Halloween mood. highly recommend this ice cream parlor as a fun and creative place to go. read more

Cherry Smash with the Monster Bash! Love Halloween and ice cream? A must visit for a great experience this time of year. They are known to go all out with their seasonal decor and it never disappoints. Great ice cream shop with the nostalgic feel and you get to immerse yourself in their seasonal decor with every inch and every turn inside and out. The fun starts as you pull up but be prepared to wait to get in on a Friday night or weekend at this popular joint. Seating is available inside and out. Our little hack is to order from the take out window and as you wait you can head inside to tour the ice cream shop and enjoy the amazing decor. Entire staff were friendly and very helpful in explaining the menu options. We ordered the banana split with 3 scoops of your choice and 3 sauces. Great variety of flavors to choose from. It was made fairly quickly considering how busy they were that evening. Homemade Ice cream was good, creamy and smooth. Definitely come for the sweets and enjoy a memorable experience as the cherry on top! read more

What a great experience. Ice cream specialties with such awesome memorabilia. It's like a blast from the past mini museum inside the creamery. The staff was great.

A must see ice cream shop. One of a kind! read more

This place was awesome! I wish I would've gotten more photos of the outside, but the decorations are incredible (I hear it's even better at night). There was a little bit of a wait but it went by quickly. Once we got inside, there were several young ladies behind the counter, ready to help everybody to move the line faster. We ordered a banana fosters, ice cream nachos. They had tons of different ice creams to choose from including recommendations on the board behind them with some of their specialties. We found a seat in the one small side room where a lot of the Halloween action was taking place. Our kids really enjoyed it and it was fun to see everybody's reaction when they came in and some of the decor jumped out at them. This was a fun excursions for us on a rainy Sunday afternoon. read more

Pure sugar chaos, childhood nostalgia, and theatrical madness in Coral Springs Walking into Cherry Smash feels like you accidentally stepped into the opening scene of Willy Wonka, right before someone starts singing and a child learns a moral lesson. This place is a local legend, and for good reason. Cherry Smash isn't trying to be sleek, minimalist, or Instagram-neutral. It's loud, colorful, joyful, and slightly unhinged--in the way candy shops should be. You half expect Charlie Bucket to walk in clutching a chocolate bar and a dream. Let's be honest about the ice cream: It's above average. Solid. Creamy. Well executed. No complaints. But that's not why people line up. You come here for the atmosphere. Walls stacked with candy. Colors everywhere. The kind of visual overload that makes adults nostalgic and kids vibrate at unsafe frequencies. And when Halloween hits? Forget it. Cherry Smash decorates like they take October personally. Seasonal commitment at Broadway-production levels. The candy selection is elite--classic, modern, obscure, and delightfully questionable. Yes, they have bubble gum cigarettes, which feel like a time capsule from an era when adults shrugged and said, "Eh, they'll be fine." It's kitschy, it's ridiculous, and it absolutely belongs here. Seating is limited, but honestly? That's part of the charm. This isn't a linger-for-hours café. It's a pop-in, light-up-your-inner-child, grab-something-sweet-and-go experience. The kind of place where standing is acceptable because you're too busy smiling anyway. Cherry Smash isn't just an ice cream shop--it's a mood, a memory, and a permission slip to enjoy something unapologetically fun in a world that desperately needs more of that. read more

The shop looked so cool. I tried coming in October but the lines were too long. It wrapped around the building. I loved the decorations. This place goes all out when it comes to Halloween and Christmas and everyone looks so happy. It looked like a perfect holiday place. I came on a weekday. I noticed the long line growing outside the building . The window shop has another option. A window that you can order from. It had a much shorter line and so I missed out on going in and seeing the decorations inside but I gained time instead lol. The way the window worked was you place and order and that person goes and makes it. One person working it. No greeting when I placed my order and she shot the window on me without a warning. I later on learned this is how they do things. It didn't make a positive impression. I got two things. A milkshake that had cheesecake, caramel, strawberries and chocolate. It tasted good, when I mixed it. It was not well mixed when I got it. I literally tasted the different ingredients lol and The ice-cream has tiny pieces of ice. The hot chocolate was not hot or warm. Funny i saw her put it in the microwave but it did not warm up. It was room temperature. They use the power stuff for chocolate. The ratio was off as to milk to power stuff. It didn't taste very chocolatey. It tasted like milk when sipping, then I tried a straw. I got a big gulp of the dry powder stuff not mixed well. It wasn't very sweet. I don't recommend it. I didn't have a good food experience. The shop does have a great holiday spirit. I think the shop was understaffed and overwhelmed by the big crowds. Quality is being overlooked. read more

If you're looking for the best ice cream float in south Florida, then look no more! Every time I try an ice cream float somewhere else, I end up comparing it to this place because they always fall short of the standard cherry smash has set. I always go with vanilla ice cream and coke, the amount of ice cream you get is a lot and it's soooo good. It comes in a chilled glass and with a scoop of ice cream on the top of the cup. It's truly the best. They always decorate and have a really cool interior with a bunch of antiques so it's a very cool vibe. Perfect for date night or family outing. The service is amazing as well, 10/10 would recommend!! read more

This place was absolutely adorable! Every inch, inside and out, was decorated with festive holiday décor. We arrived around 6:00 PM and had no trouble parking, no wait, and no problem finding a seat. By the time we left around 7:30, the line was out the door and down the parking lot, so we definitely beat the rush. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating and have a great variety of ice cream flavors and toppings. There are plenty of sundaes and milkshakes to choose from. I ordered the turtle sundae, which came with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream topped with chocolate and caramel sauce and pecans--more than enough for me and absolutely delicious. One friend had a mint chocolate chip sundae with a few toppings and loved it, and another got a milkshake that was huge and impressive. I also heard they decorate for Halloween, which makes me even more excited to come back and check it out again! read more

We checked out Cherry Smash after hearing many great reviews and it did in fact live up to the hype! Our sundae was great and the atmosphere was fun and themed for the holidays. But pro tip: don't go on the weekend or late at night as it was EXTREMELY packed as you can tell in the video. We ordered the s'mores sundae with two scoops and it was a pretty good amount of ice cream. Will be going back! read more

Pros: The decor was amazing, they truly go all out, perfect spot to get into the holiday spirit! The ice cream is good, and there is free parking.

Cherry Smash - A Christmas Wonderland Packed Into an Ice Cream Shop Cherry Smash is truly one of the most unique ice cream experiences you'll find. The location is great, though parking is definitely limited, so plan ahead. The moment you walk in, you're hit with a full-blown Christmas explosion -- lights, ornaments, vintage decor, and holiday magic everywhere you look. It's fun, nostalgic, and absolutely over the top in the best possible way. A quick warning: if you're sensitive to lights or easily overwhelmed in tight spaces, this may not be the place for you. It is very compact and very crowded, and you will wait in line. But once you reach the counter, have your order ready -- the line moves quickly, but the staff is incredibly kind, patient, and cheerful even in the chaos. They were more than happy to answer questions and never lost their friendly vibe. I ordered the Dubai Chocolate Sundae, and wow -- it did not disappoint. It was everything a deconstructed Dubai chocolate bar should be in sundae form: creamy, rich, and perfectly balanced with pistachio cream and kunafa. Absolutely delicious. My husband ordered a strawberry shake, and it was smooth, creamy, and served with a jumbo straw to help you scoop up the strawberry chunks at the bottom. Topped with whipped cream and a cherry, it was refreshing and so good. Cherry Smash is a delightful, nostalgic novelty spot -- the ice cream is excellent, the staff is fantastic, and the ambiance is unlike anything else. But because of the tight space and intense decor, it's probably a "one and done" for us. Check out the photos and you'll see exactly why. That said, every Yelper should experience it at least once. Don't miss out -- hop on your sleigh and ride over to Cherry Smash! read more

Cherry smash has a variety of flavors . There is inside and a little bit of outside seating. They have the Halloween theme going on right now. However, it was quite packed for it being only 15 minutes to closing . The seating inside was full so I sat outside dodging the rain. I had a pumpkin flavored ice cream tasting like pumpkin pie with some sweetness. I made a pumpkin pie ice cream myself last year and it tasted similar to this one. If you like Halloween check out the decor. I was hoping for a fall theme but I guess Halloween came first. The cashier was friendly for check out even though the customers in front of me were not moving out of the way for me to pay, she asked them to move forward nicely. The others serving just asked what I wanted and what size and handed me the cup and didn't seem as friendly just rushed to serve. Looking forward to seeing a fall theme or maybe it just might skip to Christmas . read more

What a great concept! We took the 45 minute drive to Cherry Smash on a Sunday night around 5pm. The decorations outside were great and definitely picture worthy. We waited in line for 1hr, but the time went by quickly. The line is constantly moving. Once you get inside you're instantly in a time capsule of Halloween movies. It was really cool and the kids loved it. The ice cream was AMAZING. Probably the best ice cream I've had. We go the ice cream nachos with cookie dough and pumpkin swirl. The pumpkin swirl is out of control good. I highly recommend it and everyone should go take that drive. read more

This is one of our favorite family spots! We visit every season, but it's especially magical when they decorate for the holidays -- Halloween, Christmas, and more. During our last visit, there was quite a line outside (probably because it was Sunday), but it moved quickly and the staff was very friendly. The kids were both thrilled and a little spooked by the Halloween setup -- my oldest even said we have to come back for Christmas "when it's not so scary." Such a fun and cozy place for families! read more

Great experience and really nice place. Ice cream was very flavorful and tasted homemade. They have several different types of Sundays and they are all good. The place seems like it would be larger from the outside it can be a little tough to get a table inside. There's a line outside and they let in a few people at a time and sometimes it's a little difficult to pick in a reasonable amount of time your flavor and dish and I did feel slightly rushed. The people behind the counter were super friendly and helped us out. The cappuccino chip was outstanding as were the cherry smash and s'mores sundae. I must also mention the Christmas decorations as they really go all out for the holidays. On their website they also have an incredible Halloween display that I did not get an opportunity to see but if it was as good as the Christmas display it is something to be behold. Cherry smash is great I would definitely recommend it. read more

Heard about this old fashioned ice cream parlor from friends that has a unique ambiance with plenty of creamy flavors and a strong Yelp rating of 4.6 stars with 846 reviews. Needed to see this place for myself and took a drive after dinner for a glimpse. Here's a breakdown of what stood out: Exterior Christmas Decor: The large building surrounded by Christmas ornaments set the tone for a festive and welcoming experience. It's clear that they put effort into creating a visually striking first impression. 1940s Ice Cream Parlor Interior: The replica of a vintage ice cream parlor must have been a delightful throwback, transporting visitors back to a time when candy shops and soda fountains were the place to hang out. The combination of candies, tubs of ice cream, and memorabilia from the past created a cozy and nostalgic environment. The Cuddly Bear: A seven-foot-tall stuffed bear watching over the parlor certainly sounds unique and added a quirky touch to the atmosphere. It's these little details that make a place memorable! Retro Decor: The space was filled with retro elements, from old movies and toys to gasoline company placards including an old gasoline pump. That's a wonderful way to take visitors on a trip down memory lane and give them a sense of history. The Themed Bathrooms: The custom-designed bathrooms were clean and were definitely a fun detail! The men's bathroom with cartoons and old TV shows like All in the Family adds to the nostalgia, while the women's bathroom with a pink Barbie theme is playful and fun, which actually includes a glass wall display of a bunch of retro Barbie dolls. It's not often you find such attention to detail in the smallest of spaces! Ice Cream Ordered: A chocolate brownie with a giant scoop of caramel ice cream topped with whip cream, chocolate syrup and a cherry balancing on top - presented on a large red and white plate which was also drizzled with chocolate syrup - cost $14.00. They offered many other extravagant specialties like the Root Beer Float, Cherry Smash, Ice Cream Sodas, The Elvis, The Commish, Smores, The Waffle and Bananas Foster amongst others. All in all, it seems like this ice cream parlor was a place not only for great ice cream but also for embracing the charm of bygone eras, creating a unique and memorable experience. Will return with friends for another ice cream adventure. read more

Cherry Smash is hit every time ! This place is full of swonder. The ambiance of this place amazes every time I walk in, it's like a whole other world inside. When I'm getting an order to go I stay for a while and see if I see something that I haven't seen before! On this visit Halloween came early and they did not disappoint. They brought out all the monsters and ghouls and adorned the place in spiders. I couldn't help but be surprised seeing the giant clown and werewolf! I usually get regular ice cream but today I was feeling nostalgic and went for a root beer float. Which was exactly what I needed to satisfy my sweet tooth. The service was so amazing I even got an extra can of root beer , you can't beat that ! read more
