Was pleasantly surprised by Sweet & Shavery in downtown Davis. They specialize in Italian ice made…read morefrom fresh fruit and shaved ice, along with frozen custard, which has a flavor profile similar to soft serve but richer and denser. Egg yolks, along with cream and sugar, give it that thicker, creamier texture. Swirl Frozen Custard -- dole whip pineapple and vanilla Italian ice base swirled with chocolate and vanilla frozen custard; a cool, refreshing combo that mixes the best of Italian ice with the thick consistency of frozen custard. They have a few tables inside, and the interior is charming, with artwork of their Italian ice and frozen custard offerings on the walls. Service was friendly, and the ambience made it a great spot for hanging out with friends. Parking out front is a nice bonus. Overall, a high-quality dessert shop that caters to both college students and locals alike, and I'd definitely come back next time I'm in Davis!

Date night ended on a sweet note! We tried Sweet and Shavery for the first time while visiting…read moreDavis. When you walk in, it's simple, cute, and inviting. I will say the customer service was a bit lacking, but we didn't let that stop us from ordering Crepe #5. The banana and Nutella combo was chef's kiss . Such a simple treat, yet so delicious! The crepe was made fresh to order, served hot, and absolutely hit the spot. If you're in Davis and craving something sweet, I definitely recommend giving Sweet and Shavery a try!

After coming to this place a couple more times, this place grew on me…read more The bingsoo definitely lives up to its name. I got the mango bingsoo and boy do they pack it. The regular size is already enough to share amongst a couple of people, but they offer an even bigger size if you want. The mango always tastes ripe and fresh and the shaved ice is nice and creamy. The condensed milk on the side is a nice touch so you can adjust sweetness as desired. The mango is already sweet for me so I like to pour the condensed milk on the shaved ice instead. The ordering process is straightforward--either with a person or through a kiosk, and the interface on the kiosk is nice and organized. The inside is spacious with lots of seating as well as a little rec corner to play games and such. Will continue to stop by this place when I'm in the area!

You can really taste the freshness in every bite. They also have frozen mochi options, which are great if you want to take some home for later. Street parking can take a little patience, but it's worth the stop if you're craving quality mochi!

I stopped by here on a whim on a weekday around lunchtime to grab a drink. It was surprisingly…read moreempty, which means I had very minimal wait time. I got the grapefruit yakult drink with lychee jelly at 25% sweetness and less ice. I was looking for a caffeine free drink. This really fit the bill. I found it to taste really good, I'll be a little sweet for my taste, but I also prefer my drinks on the less sweet side. The shop itself is fine, nothing really to write home about but clean enough. It's a little bit cramped because they have like a clothing rack and stuff in there, but it works. I liked the little outdoor seating area. The staff and service was fine. Nothing really to write home about but nothing bad either! I do think the owner of the shop was there when I stopped by and having a conversation with another staff member, but didn't bother me at all. Looking forward to coming back and trying their other drinks. It looks like they have some really interesting and creative things. Four stars because I thought it was pretty good, but nothing quite stand out yet.

We grabbed a Mango scoop for ourselves and our friends grabbed an Ube scoop. Self ordering kiosk. Staff were nice. We'd come back if we were in the area again.

Like gummies, pancake mix, cookies, etc. I also love how they provided shade tents & water to those who were waiting in line outside. The line went by quick and the shaved ice came out really fast. I loved how it was so soft and pillowy and perfectly drenched in syrup. The fresh mochi was my favorite part, it was so soft and chewy and I'll definitely be purchasing extra next time! Would definitely come back next time I'm craving shaved ice.

We stood in that line for almost an hour and also waited for our order for another 15 minutes. Only one of the machines was in use so it took a lot longer than it should have. The consistency of the shave ice was the same which I thought was great. They even had Lappert's ice cream!!! Would I stand in that line again? Probably not. I did however see take out coming out of there. If you do decide to go, I would recommend ordering ahead via DoorDash and picking it up.

The employees are really fast and efficient so thats always a plus. I like the convenience of this place and will be returning
