    The service was impeccable and the ice cream was delish best ice cream on the beach! love it

    Great spot to cool off next to the beach! Came on Friday afternoon it was a little busy but line moved quickly and we were able to find a few chairs to lounge in. Was so difficult to choose between ice cream or shaved ice, so I got a rootbeer float that was absolutely delicious and had the perfect amount of ice cream. Highly recommend!

    We almost always stop by here after having dinner in Pass a grille. Friendly staff and fresh flavors with generous portions. Can't go wrong!

    What an amazing family owned place. Smoothies and house frozen coffee drink were great. Great experience. Can't wait to be back !

    This place is literally in the waterfront. Short walk from the hot sand for a delicious treat or a quick snack. Amazing family friendly environment. Smoothies and house coffee frozen drink were excellent. Going to St Pete Beach should certainly include a trip to Paradise Sweets. Such a great atmosphere . Can't wait to be back!

    The ice cream was so delicious!! It's well priced, tasty, and the workers are so nice! This place not only has ice cream, but it has, drinks, candy, chips, and Italian ice!! Highly recommend stopping by!!

    Great place to grab ice cream or something sweet before heading cross the street to enjoy the ocean views. My wife and I each ordered ice cream - mine in a bowl and hers in a cone. The service was great and fast, and they offer a good variety of flavors and options.

    Small little shaved ice, ice cream or coffee cafe that is tucked away across from the beautiful sand beaches at 8th and Golf Way. I was satisfied with the coffee and my kids were torn between the plethora of ice cream flavors or the shaved ice. Either one you decide, you'll be lovin' the decision to swing by Paradise Sweets.

    It's great that a common ice cream place is placed right across the beach. They also have candies and coffees/teas. Three stars because I think it's overrated. Some of the staff were super accommodating and kind and others gave an attitude. Their flavors aren't anything special, however, the ice cream is real. It melts fast so that means little or no emulsifiers in it. They have a few tables inside and out, both on the sort of patio and around the side of 8th. The tables aren't cleaned regularly, so be prepared to reposition yourself and belongings or grab some napkins prior to or get nasty! They didn't have mint-(choco)-chip when I was there..... that's my go-to flavor! I tried a couple of flavors and got a small cup with two flavors for $3.50. I then wanted a coffee post purchase and I wasn't able to locate a garbage bin to toss out my empty cup. I asked one of the boys behind the counter where the bins are and he said outside (I didn't want to go outside, I was outside all day!) and he said that they're overflowing, and then when he saw my frustration because the main door was flooded with families entering and ordering he said there's one inside right between the door and the counter.... again! That's right where it was overwhelming with people. I asked if he could take it and if I could place an order for coffee. He completely ignored me and turned his head the other way. Then he motioned for some newcomers to order and basically got rid of me. It did the trick. I grabbed my stuff and pushed through the swarm of people and the trash bin was overstuffed inside too. Half of my rubbish fell in the gap between the bin and the ice cream counter. I don't think I'll be back. The girls working behind the counter we're courteous and did amazingly. I gave a $0.50 tip for the ones who initially helped me. ----- After messaging in depth with the owner, I've learned that the ingredients in the Vanilla ice cream are as follows: Cream, milk, skim milk, sugar, whey, stabilizer (locust bean gum, guar gum), vanilla extract, vanilla bean. Contains Milk. Happy eats!

Located on the ground level of the beautiful Don Cesar Hotel, this oasis of goodies and coffee is exactly what we needed and when we needed it. When you walk by Uncle Andy's Ice Cream Parlor, you can't help but feel pulled in by the sights of the brightly highlighted coffee and ice cream bar. Once inside the shop, you're immediately surrounded by shelves and tables of snacks and goodies. They have just about everything you would need in one spot from breakfast and lunch sandwiches, which they heat up for you upon request, to chocolates, liquor, and snacks. There's definitely something for everyone at Uncle Andy's! The folks there are so helpful and accomodating, as they even offer to allow you to place your order with the restaurant next door and take it to go from Uncle Andy's! Right outside the doors of this amazing coffee shop is the courtyard leading to the beach. We carried our breakfast and coffee out toward the beach to the couches, where we enjoyed the sunrise and breakfast with a view. I highly recommend the Don Cesar, and frequent Andy's Ice Cream Parlor while you're there!

Inside is bright and welcoming but no chairs or tables inside to sit. Staff were fine, not overly friendly. Good menu with lots of different items like floats, Italian ice, milkshakes, and snow cones. Ice cream shops on the other side of town I noticed did not have such a variety. Went with the soft serve that has fruit mixed in on the spot into it. Cool machine that does this all at once, never seen anything like it! The machine takes frozen fruit and blends it right into the soft serve. I went with mango for my fruit, and it didn't disappoint. The ice cream was smooth, fresh, and creamy. Unique item worth a try!

I was actually walking past to a restaurant for an adult meal but when I saw the sign advertising Hawaiian style 'snow capped shaved ice' I kool-aid manned through that door. They had no seating indoors but had a huge selection of cool treats such as (knockoff) dipping dots, lots of ice cream flavors and of course the star of THIS show-shaved ices. I opted for the peach coconilla with vanilla ice cream on the bottom. It was great and my only regret is not getting the large. I will say the staff didn't seem particularly thrilled to be there and I was the only one inside, it was a little uncomfortable..but hey it's summer in Florida and this heat is going to suck the joy out of us all some day.
