We sampled a few different flavors and ultimately went with a two-scoop cup of black sesame and ube (the main reasons I wanted to visit), plus a two-scoop cup of Blue Moon and peach. The black sesame had a very strong, rich flavor with a slightly grainy texture that I absolutely loved, you can tell they use real, high-quality ingredients. The ube was incredible and had that authentic, natural ube aroma. It's so hard to find ube desserts that don't taste artificial or rely on weird purple food coloring, but this one nailed it. My husband got the Blue Moon and peach, which were both super refreshing and perfect for summer. Best of all, none of the flavors were not too sweet! I'll definitely be back to try more of their menu!

The people who helped us were so friendly and made great suggestions as well. They had heaters on for the cool night for the few tables they have outside and it was comfortable and welcoming. We enjoyed our experience and treats and will happily be back!

If you're in Old Town and craving a sweet treat, this is the spot. *Keep in mind, there is only outdoor seating available.

I love that they let you sample as many as you'd like before deciding! Service was quick, but we never felt rushed while trying flavors and figuring out what we wanted. The waffle cones taste SO fresh because they literally are!! Someone was making them right there while we picked our ice cream. Such a nice touch! We shared a Double Dough and Darkest Chocolate together in a fresh waffle cone and it was so, so good. Did not get a picture because we ate it so fast! Easy parking, great service, delicious ice cream, and fresh waffle cones. Definitely 5 stars!

My friend got 2 scoops of the Gooey Butter Cake in a waffle bowl and also purchased 2 boxes of the single serving Gooey Butter Cake to take home. Those 12 packs are pretty expensive. I think our total for everything was between $80-90! Highly recommend the two flavors I got though if you come try this place. You won't be disappointed.

I was…read moregreeted by Angelica from behind the counter who was extremely nice and explained everything to me, answering questions that I had. I asked about ordering a whole cake and she said this was done easily online and just give them 48 hours to prepare. They have a sale on day-old bread for 20% off, as well as fresh pastries, cakes, cookies, and other treats. Most breads and baguettes are made with a sourdough base. There's a large working kitchen off to the side and back. There are no restrooms in the bakery. The bakery is kind of tucked away in a secluded strip mall with a large private parking lot. Angelica says there is a farmers market here every Sunday and every weekend, a coffee cart is brought into the bakery so that you can enjoy hot drinks with your pastries. There are a few small patio tables in front of the store if you'd like to sit and enjoy your treats. I mentioned I needed something for lunch and Angelica recommended the ham and cheese pastry. I chose that and she asked if I'd like it heated. I took my pastry warmed up to go and also picked up an individual coffee cake and a four- pack of gourmet salt topped chocolate chip cookies for hubs, and a cheese danish for me for later. Angelica says the cheese danish is a very popular item here. I was very tempted to get the vanilla almond pastry as Angelica described the huckleberry sauce used. I'll have to come back next time to try that. There is a refrigerated grab and go case by the door with cake slices and cold beverages. I had such a pleasant first visit here. I found a spot near work to enjoy my ham and cheese pastry and oh my goodness, it was melt-in-your-mouth delicious with paper-thin, flaky, glazed pastry sheets, covered in melted cheese and rosemary, and stuffed with warmed diced ham slices. Nom nommm.

I opted for the Neverfull of nuts. A vanilla ice cream base, dipped in chocolate, rolled with peanuts, a Reese's and Nutella drizzle. It was very good and definitely enjoyed during the beautiful sunny day in Old Town. The service was great, friendly, quick and helpful with suggestions. My grandparents who were visiting from out of town, loved it. Overall, it was a delicious treat, beautiful store and hit the spot. I do feel the price point is a tad steep and they didn't have any children of small offerings, but I suppose that goes hand in hand with the luxe vibe. I would definitely return, but also a few other local spots that equally hit the mark.

A Nostalgic, Must-Visit Dessert Destination in Old Town Scottsdale…read more Our party of six visited the Sugar Bowl for dessert following a friend's birthday dinner. Upon our arrival, we were accommodated immediately and seated without any delay. The parlor features a wonderful, nostalgic aesthetic reminiscent of the late 1900s. Its menu is remarkably expansive, offering an impressive variety of options that goes well beyond what one might typically expect from a traditional dessert establishment. The service we received was patient and polite. While one of our table's orders was initially overlooked, the staff corrected the mistake instantly as soon as we brought it to our server's attention. As the name implies, the menu leans heavily into decadent, sweet treats; those looking for lighter or tart options like yogurt variations will find limited choices, but the indulgent selections are perfect for traditional dessert lovers. The surrounding neighborhood adds significantly to the appeal, offering an excellent Old Town atmosphere filled with art galleries, historic shops, and artifacts. If you are visiting the nearby Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art (SMoCA), enjoying dinner in the area, or simply taking an evening walk, I highly recommend stopping by the Sugar Bowl for its unique historical charm and experience.

I considered several options in Phoenix area to review, but I decided to go with the iconic Sugar Bowl in Old Town Scottsdale. It's been in business since the 1950's and has been a staple for 7 decades in Old Town. The inside is 1890's decor of pink & white wallpaper/decor like an old fashioned ice cream parlor. They have a bar area and standard seating. I remember I first went here when I was in high school in late 90's/early 2000's. Ice cream was always top notch. I used to get the Buster Brownie, which was this big brownie sundae with vanilla ice cream, goeey marshmallow topping, whipped cream, & cherry on top. It was awesome! I loved that way back then. I got lunch there once or twice; pretty good sandwiches, but the real highlight is the ice cream. My most recent visit was in Jan. 2022 with my dad. We decided to pop in for ice cream. It was as delicious as I remembered.
