    A hidden little shop in downtown. Some ice cream or a slush, here is where to get it. Super great people, good flavors; you don't want to miss this place, especially as the hot days are coming.

    Orange cream/strawberry and Sour Apple/strawberry $12 each.
    Bobby L.

    I'm sure glad the ice cream place across the street ran out of all the flavors we wanted to try because we discovered this place and it is amazing! I don't know why there aren't more reviews on this place. I don't usually give out 5*'s unless I really like the establishment and this place exceeded by expectations. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I want to note this place is super clean, hidden away in a back alley off the main street, when we walked in this place was very clean and well decorated especially for Halloween![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Firstly, they use Straus Cream for their soft serve! Super creamy with a silky smooth texture and decadent. We ended up getting the combo which is $12 and you choose a slush and a soft serve flavor. I would recommend getting the vanilla, which you wouldn't normally hear me say, but the machine adds this syrup/flavoring in the soft serve that isn't really my favorite. We got the sour apple slush in one and orange cream in the other with strawberry soft serve. Service here is a little on the slower side because it was the owner working the entire shop by himself orders and all, but he was super nice and friendly. This place would give meadowlark in Pleasanton a run for it's money for sure! I'd like to add that their pup cup sizes here are generous and my dogs loved it! When I'm in the area I'll be back!

    Regular chocolate soft serve and orange slush combo

    Thanks to Yelp Elite Jamie C's review, I got the orange slush and chocolate soft serve combo and it was very yummy! The flavor combination was excellent, but I also enjoyed each flavor on its own. I got the regular size which was very generous, good for sharing. Service was fast and friendly, and [[HIGHLIGHT]]we enjoyed sitting outside at the nearby plaza to listen to live music on a Sunday afternoon.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Sour Apple and strawberry Orange cream and strawberry

    Owner was super nice and informative. The flavors were super refreshing And not syrupy. The price was amazing for the amount we got. We can't wait to go back again.

    Combo mango slushy & caramel soft serve.in alternating layers.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Once Upon A Slush is a small cute shop hidden in a little courtyard.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It serves, slushies, Strauss organic soft serve, coffee drinks, hot dogs, popcorn, soup, chilli, and grilled cheese sandwiches. The slushies and soft serve are the stars of Once Upon A Slush. You can even make combos or shakes of a slushy & soft serve. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There are five tables for indoor seating, and two tables for outdoor seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I came here after my husband noticed a lot of young people coming out of Once Upon A Slush. We were curious about what everyone was eating from there so we wandered in. Like a lot of customers, we ordered a combo of a slushy & a soft serve. We chose a combo of mango slushy & caramel soft serve. It was served in alternating layers of slushy and soft serve which was nice to get the change after a few bites. It was delicious and refreshing for a warm day. The mango slushy was sweet, soft, and had a lot of mango flavor. The caramel soft serve was creamy & sweet. The owner, Dave, was friendly and was a one man show. He took the orders, made the products, and served the orders. He was quick though. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Once Upon A Slush is a cozy little place where one can gather with friends for coffee, slushies, soft serve, and snacks. Or just take it to go.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The special treats from Once Upon A Slush are delicious and we will be back,

    root beer soft serve and cherry slush!
    Jamie C.

    Great dessert spot in downtown Petaluma! I love walking here after a nice dinner out, it's such a fun treat. The inside is small but decorated with a cute fantasy theme, and the people working are always so friendly! Although it is located in the American Alley, so the surrounding area isn't the nicest, but I personally like to take it over to the edge of the river and enjoy it there! The four of us ordered a couple different things! I ordered a small combo with root beer soft serve and cherry slush. One thing I will note is that the depending on what flavor slush you get, it can be a little flavorless. Finding one that is good can take a little bit of trial and error! Personally, I like the cherry slush with a select few soft serve options. The root beer was very good! One of my friends ordered a kids sized combo with chocolate soft serve and orange slush. Such a delicious combination if you like orange and chocolate! It tasted just like a Jaffa Cake. The orange is also one of the better slush flavors. Another one of my friends got a kids sized toasted marshmallow soft serve with root beer slush. This tasted just like a root beer float, and will probably be my new favorite order from there! It was so yummy. The fourth friend ordered a small banana soft serve, and it tasted exactly like a banana laffy taffy (if you're into that)! Not my personal favorite but worth a try. Overall I would absolutely recommend trying this Petaluma staple at least once if you're in the area!

    This is an orange frozen confection with soft serve vanilla. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The shop is a very small with a cool location.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Never had anything like it and the quality is sensational. Many flavors of soft serve and frozen confection that can be combined all sorts of ways. The density and taste are perfect. My granddaughter and I loved it! We're going to take Dave (the owner) a copy of his place with the flying unicorn.

    Soo good!!! So many flavors to pick from!! The kids will love on a hot day or just for a sweet snack!

    Vanilla soft serve

    A small ice cream and soft serve store in Petaluma. The location is a bit difficult to find it's in an alleyway. The place was pretty packed but the wait was around 5 minutes. We got the small combo and child soft serve. The child size was perfect for me the cup sizes are pretty large despite the name. The soft serve was creamy and delicious. The flavor wasn't too milky or creamy just the right taste. Definitely a place to check out!

    Orange Cream slush with Vanilla Soft Serve and a Shirley Temple Slush with Fruity Cereal Soft Serve

    The slush and soft serve were so good! There were so many options to choose from, I will definitely be coming back

    Slush and soft serve w lotsa toppings!

    I've been coming to Snowtime for a couple of years, and it's still one of my favorite dessert spots…read morewhenever I'm in the Campbell area. They have an impressive variety of drinks and desserts, and I especially love that their snow/bingsu comes in three different sizes (small, medium, large), making it perfect whether you're treating yourself or sharing with friends. On my latest visit, I tried the Banana Matcha drink, and the flavor was delicious. The banana layer on the bottom is a nice touch and you can clearly taste both the matcha and banana. My only note is that I wish the layer on top was a bit thicker for a creamier texture. Even so, the quality and consistency keep me coming back. If you're craving shaved snow desserts, soft serve or unique drinks, Snowtime is always worth a visit!

    Just discovered Snowtime and we were pleasantly surprised to have a Taiyaki place so close!…read more The place is very simple in decor. The A/C was blasting so it was a bit cold eating our soft serve but it's better than being hot! The taro soft serve was good, a little more tart than I'm used to but good! The Taiyaki was freshly made. I would have liked more custard but I'll know next time to ask. Toppings were ok, the coconut and almonds would be much better toasted. The Black Sesame was inert but gave it texture. The banana latte was delicious! Creamy on top, mild coffee flavor, and the banana came through nicely. Big cup also! We'll definitely be back!

On this particular Saturday my friend used his handy dandy Yelp app to find something in Petaluma for some sort of dessert and Trader Jim's popped up as being at the Farmer's Market at Walnut Park on the west side of Petaluma so we decided to go. We started strolling by all the different stands and offerings and then there it was the Trader Jim's Tiki trailer. We couldn't wait to get a taste of their pineapple whip! I had the pineapple float which was the pineapple whip in a cup with pineapple juice. Talk about delicious!!! And the price was right! Don't forget there is no need to travel to Southern California when you have a hankering for that delicious pineapple whip as you need not look any further than your own backyard and Trader Jim's Tiki Trailer. Head to their website and find out when and where they will be next (hint, hint, they frequent The Barlow in Sebastopol quite a bit!).

While I don't think it was exactly the same as the dole whip served at Disneyland and Disney World, it was good enough. I appreciated that they made the swirl come to a perfect point and that they included a festive drink umbrella. The yellow mini food truck is beyond adorable. Refreshing and sweet.
