    Horchata and Watermelon Aguas Frescas
    Dawn M.

    Friendly, inviting, and the best in town! Excited to see a paleta bar close by! Entering the store, the employees were friendly and was served quickly. I got the horchata and watermelon agua freshcas. Both were hits! Just the right amount of sweetness. I got a chance to test taste the Kahlúa and it tasted just like coffee! I'll have to get that next time. I'll be coming back to try the paletas!

    Love this place. Delicious and refreshing. Only drawback is that it comes out to almost $10 a person, so $50 for a family of 5. A little bit of a splurge But I'd rather pay a little more and have it be this good, than a little less and meh .

    Mango paleta dipped in white chocolate and coconut, and coconut paleta dipped in chocolate with almonds. Taste like an Almond Joy. Yum

    Just found our new ice cream place! All natural, from scratch I've cream and natural juices. Soooo good.

    I've been hearing about this place for a little while and we finally stopped in for a sweet treat! The concept was new to us and the associate explained the process and even let us try their new flavor! My son picked out the bubble gum and my husband and I went with the hazelnut crunch. Both were delicious and not overly sweet! We will definitely be back!

    YUM! Our group of 7 earned these Paletas! There is a 4-step process to create your Paleta and the employees are super helpful if you are confused. I ordered Hazelnut Crunch, dipped in Dark Chocolate, covered in Oreo crumbs and served with sliced bananas. BOMB. So many combinations to be created

    Love this place! You choose your flavor of bar, then dip, then toppings. The fruit cup with tajin and Chamoy was excellent, fruit was perfectly ripe and fresh! The employees were kind and open for any questions, made you feel very comfortable. Very clean, made 2 stops on our trip to Mesa.

    I love new mom and pop establishments like this one where there is lots of energy from the staff. When we walked in, we were greeted by an employee who offered to let us know how the ordering of their menu works to do each step of the process. in a nutshell, I would describe this as souped up gourmet Popsicles. My daughters both got the Oreo Paleta have to put in chocolate and Oreo toppings. They were delicious and a fun Friday night treat. This staff recommended their fresh made Horchata so we had to get one of those and OMG, it was to die for. We will definitely be back

    I discovered this Paleta bar while searching for new food places on Yelp. It looked good, so I bookmarked the business to try out on my next trip to the area. Walked into the Paleta bar and there was nobody else, so I was able to really look at the different flavors. Picked my flavor paleta, then picked the dip, and topping. The person working behind the counter was very nice and helpful. The paleta was very good. I'll definitely be back to try another.

    Paleta selection, my favorite...coffee

    WOW! Paletas...creamy - delicious - refreshing. Incredible selection of toppings including nuts and fruits. Superstar customer service! Menu includes paletas, fruit cups, Aquas Frescas.

    Wow did this place impress! Saw it by chance and thought I'd give it a try... they have both milk based or water based popsicles. Lots of options made with fresh fruits like mango, coconut, and strawberry to fun stuff like bubble gum and Oreo. Get them dipped in chocolate, candy toppings, or fruits if you're feeling fancy. They tasted very fresh and creamy! They have other stuff like agua frescas (fruit juices), street corn, and shakes. The employees (owners?) were also very friendly. We'll definitely be back to try some more flavors!

    We stumbled upon this place after a movie and decided to give it a shot. Will say that this is one of the best desserts I've EVER had. Im pretty sure the owner served us and she was seriously so kind and offered us samples. The place was pristinely clean. Truly blown away by this establishment.

    Paleta bar was very clean and staff was very friendly. I totally recommend coming here. The paletas are amazing, and I love how you can customize it to your liking!!

    Once again, this Paleta Bar does not disappoint. If you want a special treat, a scrumptious dessert, unique snacks, these folks will hook you up with something awesome!!! They recently started bringing a food (Paleta) cart to some surrounding areas & it made my day seeing them in the neighborhood!! My Paleta today was Cookies N Cream, dipped in white chocolate, covered in Health Toffee crumbles.... YUM!! I tried to get a pic of my families bars tonight, but they ate them too fast. :--)

    They were making more of the missing ones, so you can still order them.

The staff were very friendly and definitely on top of their game. My partner ordered a chocolate peanut butter ripple malted shake and was mightily impressed. I ordered a scoop of Banana cream pie and chocoholic chunk in a cup. I was richly rewarded by both flavors. We cannot wait to return to taste other flavors amongst the long list of ice creams on offer. We're simply in the queue amongst the many locals who've long been privy to this little slice of ice cream Valhalla.

    First timers to Handel's Ice Cream…read more Kinda still steady business when we arrived shortly after 9 PM. They have full menu choices throughout the store & a QR Code available too! Definitely was wanting ice cream. Many yummy flavors to choose from. They have several sugar cones & waffle cone sizes. Did a medium chocolate & peanut dipped waffle cone with Butter Pecan & Cookie Dough. Delicious, creamy, smooth & velvety. Lots of chunks of pecan & cookie dough throughout as well. Making fresh hand made ice cream daily! Tons of options from milk shakes, banana splits, sundaes, brownie sundaes, hurricanes, ice cream sandwiches, Handel pops, frozen dipped bananas to "of course" their ice cream! They rotate daily flavors to feature local favorites & seasonal specialties year round. The history & story of this business started back in 1945. Can just see Mrs. Handel's at her husband's gas station window selling her ice cream with fresh strawberries from her garden. Ohio born business that's expanded to over 175 locations in 20 states should say something about growth in churning & not changing the recipe of quality homemade goodness. Note-Handel's has a secret menu. Can vary by location, but if you google their website; check to see what specific off-menu items they are promoting! Offer Pint Perks & Deals plus sorbets & gluten free sorbets. *In response to the business owner: I stated varies by location & mentioned to google it (as you may want to as well). It does exist, so whether it's a new trend or its locations creating their own signature blends-it's definitely out there! Instagram features a few also..* Only downside: Nearly almost $20 for two medium waffle cones. Get that they stack it generously, but that's steep! Ice cream can melt quick, so get a lot of napkins & you gotta eat it fast. Not much seating outside and non indoors. Saw many LARGE active cockroaches on the concrete around ALL of the retail businesses. *In response to the business owner that went from 4 to 3 stars. We were having our ice cream on one of the very "few" outdoor business benches & clearly know what we saw/experienced while trying to enjoy our ice cream cones! Could be a possibility about the "creatures" you spoke of (that generally migrate around aquatic areas). However, they would have been mixed in with the crickets & yes many different sized cockroaches too! I do not appreciate the dismissive reply & with that- we will not be returning to this location.

As we walked in, we noticed it's a nice large open space very bright in there. The decor is cute and calming! The girl that was at the Front did not greet us. She was on her phone. I had to go ask her for samples she handed them to me, but didn't ask if it was our first time there if we needed any help or anything, we tried some of the yogurt samples, but ultimately we ended up getting some chocolate covered strawberries, the pecan clusters, and the peppermint bark chocolate bar! As I was taking pictures, the girl was still on her phone! We did interrupt her by asking her for the strawberries and the other stuff. She was just very quiet, not very friendly, which is OK I guess for a young teenage girl. The other girl came out of the back and that's when the one that was originally up there was a little bit more chatty with her coworker. The other one was way more friendly because as more customers walked in she greeted them, gave them samples. She was just a lot more friendly than the first original girl that was standing up there! But as I said, we went in for the delicious chocolate covered strawberries, and we will definitely be back there again!
