Salted caramel ice cream with red velvet "macaroon" and a toasted marshmallow
Natalie S.

We went here on the way home last night. Customers service was great. We've had better ice cream. I found the flavors underwhelming, especially the cake batter. It would have been better without the sprinkles. We did not get a macaron and marshmallow with our ice cream, which I was looking forward to. We didn't ask as we were afraid to embarrass him.

This place is a small but mighty hidden gem! It reminded me of an old time ice cream shop vibe and felt really laid back. The menu has so many options and a lot of ice cream flavors to choose from! We both really enjoyed the ice cream and would definitely come back. The staff member was nice but had headphones in the whole time so we had to keep reporting ourselves which was a little awkward. Great flavored ice cream but just on the pricey side!

Updated menu from Spring 2023

I thought this was a lovely little ice cream shop. The flavors were tasty and the portions were good and the service was quick. It's on the pricy side, but isn't all ice cream these days? My daughter got the cookie cup and the warm toasted marshmallow really was a nice touch. And there were 4 non-dairy/vegan options, which was helpful for our crew and the chocolate tasted great. Definitely recommend stopping by.

Truly a "hidden" gem. This Fatty Daddy's location is a little hard to find as there is no visible sign from the street. I've been to their location on Roosevelt several years ago and remember enjoying it. What I loved most about Fatty Daddy's are the basic flavours and toppings. Ice cream doesn't need to be complicated. There were about 15/20 flavors. Samples were encouraged. I chose a cup cookie dough which was like 4 small scoops. Perfect treat on a warm AZ night.

Gourmet Ice Cream with 1 Topping

Tried butter pecan ice cream with toasted marshmallow. Taste is decent and never tried with marshmallow ever before on an ice cream. Interesting combo. Lady was nice and offered sample when asked. Simple and cute ambience. But parking is an issue. And very pricey for what's offered. Just a scoop of ice cream with one topping costed almost $10

This place was a little hidden but we were searching for some ice cream after dinner and found this place. I'm glad we did because it was delicious! The service was great and she let us try some different samples of the ice creams. I like how you can have the option to add macarons and marshmallows on top!

Cute little spot with a lot of good flavors! The girl in the shop was super sweet and friendly. Explained what they offered since it was our first time there. I had the double that came with a macaron and a toasted marshmallow. Fruity pebbles and birthday cake flavored in the cup. Perfect amount and very good! Clean place with seats inside and outside. We got there and we're the only 2 there; soon enough people started coming in! Totally recommend! So many options.

"I tried to think of the most harmless thing ... Mr. Stay-Puft." (Ghostbusters) Fatty Daddy's isn't just a dessert adventure for those with dad bods or proton packs. Trust that ladies, kids, and those possessed by Zuul will also enjoy selecting cookie cups with hand crafted gelato, chewy macarons, and all the fixings, then watching as they are stacked into sugary Leaning Tower(s) of Pisa. Luckily these treats don't take 200 years to construct! The foundation of each monolithic masterpiece isn't complete until topped with the pièce de flúffy rèsistance, a gourmet marshmallow torched Ghostbusters-style before one's very eyes. My precariously-piled creation included Nutella gelato with Oreos, a coconut macaron, and of course, the burnt 'mallow topper! Buono! Squisito! More is more! Over all this cute shop is a perfect place to chat and mallow out with friends, as long as you don't will your dessert into a 100-ft tall destructive entity. I give it 5 cross stream blasts..."Who ya gonna call?"

This is a very tiny but tasty place. I had the "almost famous" cookie cup. I chose the banana peanut butter ice cream with a caramel macaron. It comes with a toasted marshmallow on top of the macaron. It's not a "jet puff" marshmallow either, so it's better. You get the cold creamy ice cream, the warm toasted pillowy marshmallow and the "crunchy with a good chew" macaron. If I wasn't on a diet I would have eaten 2 of these. #worthit We also had the honeydew green tea. It was just the right amount of sweet. The green tea wasn't an overpowering tea. It was a cup of fruity perfection. Y'all need to check this place out. I'm not normally a huge ice cream fan but this is one place you absolutely cannot miss. Sooo tasty omg

Cookie Cup- Strawberry cheesecake ice cream with vanilla macaroon and toasted marshmallow
Danielle P.

Hands down our favorite ice cream shop in the valley! You absolutely have to try their cookie cup. All of the ice cream is made fresh with great ingredients, marshmallows and macaroons are made from scratch, and it's the best combo! Both locations are great and the ambiance is always inviting and comfortable. I am so surprised to see so many 4 star reviews. We drive from Ahwatukee to both of their locations all the time because it really is the best. Be sure to ask whomever is working for samples so you don't get a weird combo.. some of our favorites are the strawberry cheesecake, vanilla lavender, fruity pebbles, and birthday cake flavors.

BEST SPOT IN SOUTH SCOTTSDALE!!!!
Elizabeth M.

Delish local spot with rotation of flavors. Super cute very fast service. The best of what a local ice cream shop is all about.

Do they sell macarons by themselves, or do they only come on the cookie cup?

They sell them separately. Erich

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.

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.

Easy parking, great service, delicious ice cream, and fresh waffle cones. Definitely 5 stars!

I sampled at least 4 flavors and they didn't seem too annoyed with me. My issue with Jeni's is primarily I think all of their ice cream across the board is too sweet (I know, it's dessert... I just really feel that dialing the sugar to 2/3 the amount would be perfect). All of the flavors I sampled would have been great. I ultimately ordered Buttercream Birthday Cake and Milkiest Chocolate, with the Buttercream Birthday Cake really pushing my boundary. Nonetheless enjoyable outing on a really hot July day. I'd go back to this location, bearing in mind it's not my favorite ice cream in the world. Also I must add, it's quite expensive. Buying for me individually, doesn't do too much damage, but for say a family of 4, this would be a pricey outing.

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.
