After Tuesday night tacos, my friend and I decided to stop by Neveria La Tradicional for dessert, and overall it was a really enjoyable experience. This was actually my first time visiting a traditional Mexican ice cream and dessert shop, and I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of items they offered. My girlfriend and friend were much more familiar with these types of desserts and kept pointing out all the traditional favorites on the menu. If you enjoy fruit-based desserts, you'll have plenty of options here. They offer items like chamangos, nieve enchilada, monjas, raspados, diablitas, and a variety of other specialty desserts. There were also plenty of ice cream flavors available, including Oreo, chocolate, bubblegum, pistachio, strawberry with cream, walnut, cheese, nance, and guanábana. Several of those flavors were completely new to me. They also offer a large selection of nieves, which I was told are more water-based than traditional ice cream. Flavors included lime, vanilla, strawberry, coconut, walnut, grape, guava, mango, tamarind, pineapple, cantaloupe, and leche quemada ("burnt milk"), among others. On top of that, there were numerous popsicle flavors, milkshakes, banana splits, elote, strawberries with cream, churros locos, and other desserts. Whether you want something simple or something over the top, there are plenty of choices. One challenge for me personally was the language barrier. The staff was friendly, but they primarily spoke Spanish, and my Spanish is very limited. Since I have a raw fruit allergy, I was trying to make sure that what I ordered contained flavored syrup rather than actual fruit. We were able to work through it by pointing at menu items and doing our best to communicate, and thankfully everything worked out fine. I didn't have any allergic reaction, but it's worth mentioning that many of their products contain real fruit, which is great for most people but something those with fruit allergies should be aware of. One thing I really appreciated was how clean the business appeared. The place smelled freshly cleaned, and during my visit I saw employees actively wiping down preparation areas, cleaning tables, washing windows, and mopping floors. It's always nice to see a business taking cleanliness seriously. Parking was easy enough, with a few spaces opening and closing throughout our visit, and we didn't have any trouble finding a spot. Overall, I enjoyed my visit and would definitely come back. Next time I'll probably bring my Spanish-speaking girlfriend along to help me navigate the menu a little more easily, but the desserts were good, the staff was friendly, and it was a fun experience trying something different. read more

Looking to satisfy my craving of Shaved Ice I've found this place. They have the Mexican version of the classic Hawaiian Shaved Ice (Raspados)... and actually, I think it is better because the syrups are made with real fruit and not just artificial flavours. The "neveria" is pretty clean and the 2 people attending are very polite and flexible when you request any additional flavour or size. They have ice cream, paletas and other Mexican snacks too. I love coming here in the evenings after work, nothing like a good sweet to refresh you :) read more

Neveria La Tradicional - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Fresno, California

I came here by myself on 7/17/21. I was super hungry at my parents house (I eat different from them), middle sister wasn't feeling well to dine out and I myself starving decided to stop by for a quick snack to hold me over for family dinner in the evening. I arrived about 2pm. I entered and it cool inside. I was immediately greeted by a lovely young woman. I pretty much already knew what I wanted which was my Mangonada which ended up being the Chamango. I did look at the ice cream, their bars, and other yummy treats they have. The woman and I pretty much hit off! She fell in love with my purple Coach purse with the flowers on it so we were having a pretty good conversation. Honestly, my favorite ice cream is Mexican ice cream. I'm totally biased. It taste better than American ice cream in a heart beat. I have been wanting to try this place out ever since they opened a few years ago but never had the opportunity to stop by and GOSH I wish I didn't wait so long ;( The atmosphere was very low key, the woman whipped up my Chamango in minutes. I just hope they get more business :D I love this place. I visit the family house 3 or 4 times a week so I am looking forward to taking my two lovely nieces here to show them the best ice cream places. I didn't bring them this round as the ice cram would spoil their appetite for dinner - joys of being an adult - also, very clean inside and tidy. Anyways, I would rate my Chamango 8/10 it was seriously good and filling, fresh mango, Chamoy, tajín, mango ice cream hit the spot on some of the hottest days here in the Valley. Cost me about $7 which is totally worth it. I can't wait to come back!! I definitely will be trying more of their ice creams. I highly recommend you give this mom and pop ice cream shop a try. The area I felt pretty safe in but there can be a lot of police activity so be careful and vigilant. #SupportLocal read more

Wow! What great fruit ice cream on a hot Fresno day' Service was kind and helpful to a newbie at Mercian ice cream. Clean place and such good ice cream. read more

I've been here multiple times already and this is my go-to place for Mexican ice cream! Got the Monja and it's shaved ice was kind of chunky but sweet bc of the condensed milk and it was good. Chamo Fresa was good too with frozen strawberries, but the Chamango Especial (which is just mangonada with big chunks of mango) is what I always go back to. Tried the Churro Loco for the first time with clamato, pig skin, churro chips and Japanese peanuts and it was alright. Don't think I'd get it again but I'm glad I tried it! The pre-made icecream bar with strawberries and cream is always delicious too read more

This place is a true gem! They have everything you crave on a hot summer day. There are so many flavors of ice cream and paletas which all look so good. You can tell they make their own which is way better than any thing you can buy from a store. We tried the ganisto ice cream which was so creamy and had nice big chunks of gansitos in it 10/10. And I got a bionico which was another 10/10. The fruit was fresh and the crema was perfectly sweet but not too sweet. Take your kids here when they ask for ice cream you won't regret it! read more

I loved the variety of ice creams! The establishment is clean and the service was wonderful!

Tucked away on the S.W. corner of Ashlan and Marty, this place has the most incredible ice cream and fresh fruit desserts! We shared one of the ice cream/fresh fruit/ whipped cream and granola concoctions and it was absolute heaven. He makes the ice cream (many wonderful and exotic flavors) on-site, and the two we sampled were out of this world. Worth driving over and worth every penny, especially in hot Fresno summers. read more

Neveria La Tradicional - Waaayy bigger than it looks here. - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Fresno, California

Stupid staff. I ordered guava and pointed at it. She told me, "haha no! That one is strawberry!" And then she served me the wrong one! I felt confused... I get home and I'm tasting the strawberry because she doesn't know her ice cream flavors! I'm going back tomorrow for my $6.50 ice cream-rip off return!! This is ridiculous. Also, I asked for a thick milkshake and they made a watery smoothie! There goes another $7 drink! get it together small businesses... By the way, they don't rinse their scooper between flavors! Watch out if you have a nut allergy!! I can smell lawsuit! Also, the lady forced me to try her cheese ice cream; it's queso seco on ice and it's disgusting. It's Covid19 season and she's not even allowed to offer samples. It's a hot mess there. Don't return. read more

This place is really good! Their ice cream is natural and fresh. I gave only 3 stars because you never know when they are open. They have hours of operation but never follow them. I've gone several times and they've been closed and I've gone several times and they are barely opening the doors even though they were suppose to be open 2 hours ago. read more
