The Baked Bear feels like a warm hug…read more From the moment we walked in, it felt so cozy. It was hot outside, but the inside was cool, welcoming, and had little touches that reminded me of Christmas and winter. Even though it's summer, it instantly made me crave hot chocolate and freshly baked cookies! The cookies were absolutely incredible--warm, soft, and perfectly baked. Paired with the ice cream, it was easily one of the best desserts I've had in a long time. If you're in South Padre, don't skip this place. It's comforting, delicious, and somehow feels just like home. We'll definitely be back! service was awesome! The ladies were quick, friendly and welcoming especially since it was busy they were still 100% nice and warm

Great variety for the cookie icecream sandwiches. A bonus is they have gluten free cookies for those with gluten issues. The cookies were thinner and smaller which was the only downer. Price wise: it's about $10 a cookie sandwich. That adds up quickly to a family. Shilled out over $30 for 3 sandwiches. That's equivalent to 5 gallons of icecream at the grocery store. Quite expensive and overly sweet. We enjoyed the novelty but no one wanted to come back.

The family and I stopped here for a mid-afternoon snack. Everyone was craving a basic ice cream but…read moreinstead enjoyed these really unique and delicious treats. The basic foundation is ice cream or snow cone. Then Yogo turns them into what I feel is a really gormet treat. I ordered Pineapple Express, pineapple snow cone mixed with cream, garnished with a fresh pineapple slice and three pineapple gummies. My daughter enjoyed a Kit Kat Sunday: vanilla ice cream drizzled with chocolate syrup and four full sticks of Kit Kat. The Choco Mango featured a scoop of chocolate ice cream atop fresh diced mango. They also sell sodas and water. Friendly service greets you at the walk-up window. Give them about 5 minutes to create your treat. Three large picnic tables offer seating under a covered patio area. Heaven help any calorie counters out there! You'll likely go over your calorie budget at this place. We'll be back though!

The first time we went, the woman behind the counter was super friendly and welcoming. The second time we went there was a man who was helpful when we ordered. We decided to eat there the second time. There weren't a lot people, but it's a nice little shop to sit in.

Solid 5 stars (based on variety and price)…read more Stopped in for an after-dinner treat with the extended family and was really surprised by the variety. They've got soft serve, Dole Whip, hand-scooped Blue Bell, soft serve fruit bowls, shakes, banana splits, and just about every topping you can think of. Looked like they had smoothies too -- kind of an all-in-one shop. They also had a lot of classic dishes like layered sundaes. Bottom line, there was some kind of ice cream treat for everyone in there. Ok amount of seating inside, with extra tables outside. Business was clean and service was efficient. I kept it simple with a classic butter pecan cone, Dad got a banana split that looked awesome, and the kids ended up with soft serve. Highly recommend a stop -- with the family, it was well worth it. Would recommend, and would return.

We stopped by Cafe Karma early on a Sunday afternoon... the best part of breakfast, a neighborhood…read moreband plays pick up music there on Sundays 12-2, worth stopping by for a listen, 1/2 the customers there were locals chillin' and enjoying the music! The rest of the experience was just OK... Cafe Karma is a coffee/breakfast/light lunch spot, serving coffee, teas, juices, soft drinks, and the like. Food consists of breakfast bakery (muffins, pastries) and cooked items, light snacks like quiche and croissants, and ice cream. We had lattes (per usual). Temp was great but the coffee itself was just OK, not the best. For food we had the turkey quiche and the omelette muffin. The quiche was bland, overcooked. The muffin was much better, and was definitely the better of the two selections. Staff were friendly, service was quick! With all the coffee shop options available in SPI, not sure we'd go back. Do not recommend IMHO...

We were here last week, 11/28/25. I wanted some hot coffee to take to the beach with me since it…read morewas a chilly morning. This review is really only based on the overall experience since the coffee was good: Pros: 1. My coffee order. Vanilla latte- strong and not too sweet. The cup makes a cute photo moment (pictured) 2. The baristas who took my order & made my coffee, they were nice given the circumstances (see below) Cons: 1. There was a family with (no exaggeration) 10+ children ordering before us and it was chaotic the second we walked in. The place was already packed, so it was overwhelming to say the least. I have no issues with children, as they were just being children. It was the lack of social awareness, control, & organization from the parents. Ice cream/coffee orders were being shouted in all directions, orders being changed multiple times, etc. It took so long for us to even order...and then an additional wait because they had ordered so much. I know it's not the establishment's fault, I'm just being honest about my experience. Maybe there should be a limit on how many people are able to crowd the front since it's a small space? I felt bad for the workers, they did a great job keeping it cool and professional. 2. There was a group of "Christian" men who seemed like they had a long meeting. They were having a very loud and racist brain rot induced discussion about their views on how diversity and inclusion are ruining this country. I've seen comments like that online and always assumed it was bots...was flabbergasted to actually hear it in person that was frustrating. Again, not the establishment's fault. But as a person of color myself, including the baristas, it was just very uncomfortable and wild to experience. It seemed like they felt too comfortable being that bold in there and that's suspicious to me. I literally chose this shop to avoid another notoriously racist coffee shop with a politically aggressive owner on the island! 3. The bathroom was gross. I can only give this place 2 stars only for the coffee and service. The workers all did a fantastic job, seriously give them a raise! However, we left overstimulated and extremely annoyed. Not sure if I'll ever be back. Hey, at least the coffee was good.
