    wow this place looked unique from just the outside but when you walk in it gets even better, i love how the employee greeted us right away and called us friends, he was smiling the entire time and seemed to love his job, he let us try about 4 different flavors and they were all yummy and creamy, you can really taste the quality and they are all lactose free cause the owner is lactose intolerant which i thought was cool, the layout makes you feel like you're in that 70s show

    Best ice cream place in the valley. Most is gf, and just tastes like creamy homemade ice cream. The inside has the best vibe ever, and the friendly owner is usually working inside making magic. It's kind of ducked off in the back, 7th Ave and Osborn.

    A little on the sweet side for me, but the flavor variety is solid and the owners are very nice. They have a cool decorated lounge in the back to hang out in. They were out of most popular flavors when we were there, but the dark chocolate and birthday were pretty good. The woman working there scooped heavy too, great portions.

    This place sells dairy free ice cream, and they have new flavors everyday! There is so many unique and interesting flavors to choose from, I tried their sticky rice mango and it was amazing. Their peanut butter recess was also amazing! The inside of the place has a really unique decoration and there is more seating at the back and at the front of the restaurant.

    Fun place in Phoenix to grab an ice cream treat. I used to come to this location often back when it was Dark Hall Coffee. Lix serves scratch-made lactose-free ice cream. Their ice cream is really good. I have been on a Turkish coffee kick since I visited Turkey last year. I was excited to see that they offered that flavor here along with a number of other fun flavors. What is really fun about Lix Ice Cream is the back room. There is so much cool nostalgic stuff back there like old arcade games, a slot machine, stuffed animals and cool lighting. There are plenty of couches to relax on if you want to hang out and enjoy your ice cream while here. Lix Ice Cream opens late if you have that late-night craving for something sweet.

    Very nice vibes sweet employees and high energy and welcoming. The Little area in the back is so cool it's such a vibe. Honestly and lots of their options are vegan and lactose free unique delicious options. They have games you can play as well

    Turkish coffee was my favorite - very unique flavor with a satisfying texture. The guys at the counter were super friendly and let us try all the samples. Good selection of flavors available. There's also a super cool and funky lounge in the back where you can sit and eat your ice cream :)

    They make all of their ice cream in house.  Flavors vary.  There are lactose intolerant friendly creams available too

    I've been trying my best to get back to Yelp to write my review about this place. So odd! I've been fiddling with AI to help me with a lot of things. I also try asking Siri and Google questions to help me while I'm driving. So insert AI prompts: "Hey Siri, please help me find a good place for ice cream with more than 4 Stars on Yelp...." Lix was at the top of the list returned. What I love about this prompt is that it inserted a place I'd never heard of that is now in my rotation of fun places! Yay for AI! I had no idea this place would be so cool! If you are interested in a cool night out with friends to just socialize, eat home made ice cream and play board games, Lix is your spot! I couldn't paint the beauty of this shop with words, check out my pictures and the video and I promise, you'll be adding Lix to your frequent rotation too! Return Factor: 100%

    Trying LIX for the first time!

    Ok so had no idea I'd find what we did at Lix ice cream. It was such a cool spot with amazing flavors of ice cream, an abundance of topping choices but what makes it all even better is the ambiance of the place! The vibes are giving 80s 90s nostalgia so so hard - it just took me immediately back to feel good times. Who doesn't want to enjoy ice cream where it feels so good and looks so cool? This would be an awesome spot to bring a date or even get together for a book club or something. Beyond the counter in the back there is a whole other room with couches and seating and it's just soooooo cool. All the folks working there were super pleasant and they were so nice to us even though we walked in about 20 minutes before they were set to close. We wouldn't have even realized how magical it was in the back had they not shared with us that it was open / available. They also seem to sell pints to take home of their delights, which I will probably grab next time. Flavors were insane - I ended up with snickerdoodle and pistachio, both were perfect, and my gf had biscoff and bananas fosters and both were also SO SO DELICIOUS. We didn't even get to try the toppings but I'll definitely be back and cannot wait!

    Such a great craft ice cream shop in the heart of Phoenix! Incredible flavor combinations. And a cool vibe in the lounge with tons of vintage items and board games. Highly recommend!

    Inside! So vibey

    I was so excited to eat my ice cream I didn't take a picture. But I had one scoop ($6) but you can get two flavors and this was an insanely huge "one scoop" size. I had French toast and pb & j, loved them (both obviously gluten free, so nice!) Flavors change day to day and all are homemade. They were smooth and fresh, definitely satisfied my sweet tooth. There was also mango sticky rice, sweet cream, chocolate dank, strawberry quick, cupcake, and Turkish coffee all gf (the flavors I remember). Also others I couldn't have so I chose not to remember them LOL. But they looked amazing The place itself is so frickin cool and vibey. Lots of colors and patterns and 80's decorations and it's a mish mosh but it all works so well. Lix is great with a little group because there's games!! I played Jenga with my boyfriend, so fun.

    This is a one of a kind, homemade ice cream shop with a super cool vibe room and great and friendly staff and the ice cream is made on site one of a kind!!

    Ice cream was excellent, choco taco didn't make it home without getting soggy. Mango puree was so good.

    I wish I could eat ice cream every single day of my life, but I can't, so when I'm out of town and…read moreon the road I take advantage of all the ice cream places I can. After having some dinner down the street, I came across Churn and knew I needed to come and check this place out. This small ice cream shop had a pretty big line on a Monday night when I arrived but it moved quickly and the ice cream looked dang good in the glass display. I decided on getting a two scoop waffle cone with Cookies & Mint and Milk & Cookies. The ice cream tasted super rich and super creamy, both flavours were very good. Overall, Churn is a top notch ice cream parlour and a place I would probably frequent if I lived in Phoenix. The ice cream here is great, the staff was friendly, and I really wish they had some non small and medium t-shirts because I would of left with one. Great spot.

    I first found out about Churn when I visited Windsor for happy hour. They are conjoined and share…read morethe same front/back parking lots and patio. Like literally you can walk between the businesses in the same building. I tried them for the first time during a Windsor/Churn Yelp Elite Event but have since visited Churn alone on my own afterward! I really liked the seasonal flavor milk and cookies because the chocolate chip cookie included in the ice cream is one of their cookies they serve separately anyway, so you know it's good. It had a sweet cream base. My sister and I shared a triple scoop for only $7 and satisfied the both of us. The interior is pretty small, but there's at least patio seating in the back and a bench out front. I'm excited to try other seasonal and permanent flavors in subsequent visits, but for now I love the milk and cookies too much to try anything else and would definitely return for just that!
