It's a small shop with lots of options!! No sitting areas but there is a nearby scenic view with some benches across the way. I opted for a fresh half mango half strawberry. The young lady asked if I wanted tajin and of course! However. I didn't realize it was an up charge and that she was going to add more than I wanted. It definitely took away from the paleta and I would've preferred to add my own but maybe just skip it.
Stopped here for a popsicle while walking around old town. It was hot and I needed a cool treat. This was a pickup and go type of situation. There was no indoor seating. They had an array of popsicle flavors. I settled on mango and strawberry and it definitely did its job. They also had toppings you can get on your popsicle if you prefer.
Great ice cream parlor tucked away in the streets of Old San Juan! Since there's no indoor seating, you can enjoy your treat at a scenic spot right across the street, which offers a beautiful view of the bay. The ice cream was delicious--I had cookies and cream, and it was the perfect balance of sweetness with plenty of Oreo pieces. They offer a wide variety of flavors, and, surprisingly, they also sell fried chicken--an unexpected but fun twist! The staff was super friendly, and the prices were reasonable. If you're in the area and craving something sweet, this spot is definitely worth a visit!
I love paletass. Location is so good with the outside being an overview promenade, and so many options, and fried chicken ice cream hehe trendy!. I loved the coco parcha flavor, and wish i tried the corn flavor. They had one flavor for doggie too! Adorbs. Small spaceinside and theres a card minimum but its fine if you just buy two paletas. Friendly helpful staffs.
The service was speedy. You can add toppings to your paleta but I opted out. I had the coco and parcha. I thought it was the best of both worlds. The coco was sweet and the parcha was refreshing. The location was small and does not have a seating area. However, across from them is a little seating area where you can hang out and enjoy the view.
Señor Paleta has two locations that I've been to. Their Old San Juan store is fun, clean, and always doing something special. I've had two popsicles at this location and one at their Condado store. They've started selling their products in grocery stores too. Recently, they had a chicken (ice cream) promotion going on. You'd have to see it to believe it. It's a thing and something to experience if you're a foodie. During my latest trip, I wanted something with chocolate. The Oreo popsicle was heavenly. I chose a topping of chocolate. It tasted like a chocolate covered Oreo. It was too good. On a different trip, I had the cake popsicle and it tasted exactly like cake. It had sprinkles inside of it. It was certainly unique. There was a Bad Bunny promotional event going on in the store at the time. They had shirts and unique items to represent his connection to the island. This promo was in 2022 but clearly, I've been back since then. Señor Paleta has become a Puerto Rico gem and local labor of love. The staff are so friendly and the service is one of a kind. I highly recommend stopping in and buying a souvenir with your dessert. It's a memorable experience!

I got the touristy doors Paleta, which is coconut flavored. There was another 3D option too. The popsicle was flavorless but a great photo nonetheless. I'd either try another flavor or skip the trip entirely. Service was prompt and friendly. read more

My first time buying popsicles made of real fruit juice. We were visiting the area on Christmas day and they were one of the few places open. The popsicles are premade locally so the service was efficient. I would highly recommend. The line can get long. There are tables and benches nearby. read more

This was worth the incline I had to walk on. lol. Delicious!! I enjoyed the Dubai Bar and my Family of 10 thought everything they got was great. 10/10, I loved it! Right beside the water and you can watch the cruise ships sail out. read more

Perfect way to cool off on a hot day in San Juan! We tried 3 flavors - the coconut being the best -creamy and delicious! Staff was helpful and very friendly. Not too far from the cruise terminal. You can add toppings and everything is individually packaged read more
Amazing paletas that are a super reasonable price! Definitely a must-try in Puerto Rico! These were super great to have to cool down after walking around old San Juan! Definitely try the flavors with panache and guayaba! They were excellent. read more

If you are in the area and are craving a popsicle, Señor Paleta offers plenty. Señor Paleta offers an assortment of handheld gelatos and sorbets throughout the year. Since these are artisanal popsicles, flavors are rotational. After seeing pictures of cute popsicles with toppings and drizzles, Señor Paleta was on my bucket list of places to try in San Juan. However, upon arriving, Señor Paleta was nothing like I pictured. First, Señor Paleta sits on top of a hill in San Juan... and can be a challenge if you start by the water. Second, once you arrive, popsicles are already pre-wrapped, and there is not much advertisement for any toppings or drizzles to add on. Overall, popsicles were tasty (I had the nutella), but not worth the hassle unless you're truly a popsicle fan. The business does not have any seating, does not have good signage on services and hospitality is just not there... read more
This was our second stop on our food tour and our guide grabbed us a popsicle treat as we waited in the nearby park. It was a hot day and we were walking up hill so this was the perfect timing to cool down during our walking tour. I had the passion fruit flavor which was delicious and definitely cooled me down on a hot San Juan day. read more

El Señor Paleta is a small spot to get tons of different flavors of paletas. They don't seem to have any places for seating but don't let that discourage you - I absolutely recommend getting a paleta and opening it up immediately after stepping outside and devouring it. We got a paleta de maiz and it was sooooo delicious. The corn flavor was so yummy and I absolutely recommend trying this flavor. I'm sure they have other good flavors that I'll have to check out another time. read more
Took a Tour of Old San Juan with a history group where we stopped at 5 places along the way. This was our last stop - a little dessert. It was amazing!! I got the pistachio gelato and it just oozed with pistachio flavor. A bonus - stroll just across the street and we got a great view of a very large cruise ship going out to see. Highly recommend!! read more
Delicious popsicles, so nice and refreshing. They have tons of options of fruit popsicles or gelato popsicles with toppings. Located in the heart of Old San Juan! It is a can't miss stop for a nice refreshing dessert. There was a pretty long line but it went by fast, and the service was very friendly! read more

Walking the streets of San Juan, I wanted something tasty and sweet. We stumbled upon Senor Paleta and I was not disappointed. It was delicious. The shop was so cute and in the perfect area and the staff was super helpful and friendly. I asked for the top two and it was a draw between the Strawberry Shortcke w/ White Chocolate and the Oreo dipped in chocolate with Oreos pieces on top. Needless to say I went with the strawberry. Please visit and enjoy! read more

Nothing necessarily wrong with the place but it's overhyped. The popsicles are wrapped up in plastic but they can add toppings such as tajin or oreo crumbs. I got the strawberry cheesecake which wasn't as sweet as I thought it'd be. Pina with tajin was a decent pairing. About $4.50 per popsicle. read more

Our walking tour group included this store as our desert. These were Delicious popsicles (almost a sin to call them that). These deluxe popsicles are not your regular street corner vendor! They have wonderful flavor combinations that just make you say wow! I had the limonada fresa and my wife had the strawberry cheesecake. Both were rich in flavor and generous portions. The store has a very modern look to it, which contrasts the vintage look of old San Juan. The staff was Very friendly and took the time to explain all of the flavors from the first person in our group to the very last ( me). Señor Paleta and their staff were definitely worthy of our Five stars and definitely worth your visit! read more

Staff didn't want to feel us out I guess? Never were we offered toppings or explained the process--just asked which flavor popsicle we wanted then led to the cash wrap. In and out real quick, sadly we were robbed of the experience but others talked highly of their concoctions. Popsicles were tasty! read more

It's worth throwing try! Nestled in a quaint corner of Old San Juan, we walked in on a quiet Friday afternoon, and was immediately attended to. Great service, an array of options, and refreshing on a hot day. I must admit, the mango was lacking that mango punch by tasting like sugar water, but I'd come back to try other flavors. Thank you Señor Paleta! read more
My friends and I stopped by here as a little pre-dinner snack. It was not too sweet (which was good) so I could really taste the ingredients. They have both traditional flavors as well as flavors that feel more special to Puerto Rico. I got the guava queso flavor which was a yummy blend of sweet and salty flavors. read more

A great way to beat the heat in Old San Juan is by paying a visit to Senor Paleta. They offer a wide variety of ice pops to satisfy your cravings. My choice was the refreshing strawberry lemonade flavor. read more
