    Regular chocolate soft serve and orange slush combo
    Kristine K.

    Thanks to Yelp Elite Jamie C's review, I got the orange slush and chocolate soft serve combo and it was very yummy! The flavor combination was excellent, but I also enjoyed each flavor on its own. I got the regular size which was very generous, good for sharing. Service was fast and friendly, and we enjoyed sitting outside at the nearby plaza to listen to live music on a Sunday afternoon.

    Combo mango slushy & caramel soft serve.in alternating layers.

    Once Upon A Slush is a small cute shop hidden in a little courtyard. It serves, slushies, Strauss organic soft serve, coffee drinks, hot dogs, popcorn, soup, chilli, and grilled cheese sandwiches. The slushies and soft serve are the stars of Once Upon A Slush. You can even make combos or shakes of a slushy & soft serve. There are five tables for indoor seating, and two tables for outdoor seating. I came here after my husband noticed a lot of young people coming out of Once Upon A Slush. We were curious about what everyone was eating from there so we wandered in. Like a lot of customers, we ordered a combo of a slushy & a soft serve. We chose a combo of mango slushy & caramel soft serve. It was served in alternating layers of slushy and soft serve which was nice to get the change after a few bites. It was delicious and refreshing for a warm day. The mango slushy was sweet, soft, and had a lot of mango flavor. The caramel soft serve was creamy & sweet. The owner, Dave, was friendly and was a one man show. He took the orders, made the products, and served the orders. He was quick though. Once Upon A Slush is a cozy little place where one can gather with friends for coffee, slushies, soft serve, and snacks. Or just take it to go. The special treats from Once Upon A Slush are delicious and we will be back,

    root beer soft serve and cherry slush!
    Jamie C.

    Great dessert spot in downtown Petaluma! I love walking here after a nice dinner out, it's such a fun treat. The inside is small but decorated with a cute fantasy theme, and the people working are always so friendly! Although it is located in the American Alley, so the surrounding area isn't the nicest, but I personally like to take it over to the edge of the river and enjoy it there! The four of us ordered a couple different things! I ordered a small combo with root beer soft serve and cherry slush. One thing I will note is that the depending on what flavor slush you get, it can be a little flavorless. Finding one that is good can take a little bit of trial and error! Personally, I like the cherry slush with a select few soft serve options. The root beer was very good! One of my friends ordered a kids sized combo with chocolate soft serve and orange slush. Such a delicious combination if you like orange and chocolate! It tasted just like a Jaffa Cake. The orange is also one of the better slush flavors. Another one of my friends got a kids sized toasted marshmallow soft serve with root beer slush. This tasted just like a root beer float, and will probably be my new favorite order from there! It was so yummy. The fourth friend ordered a small banana soft serve, and it tasted exactly like a banana laffy taffy (if you're into that)! Not my personal favorite but worth a try. Overall I would absolutely recommend trying this Petaluma staple at least once if you're in the area!

    Orange Cream slush with Vanilla Soft Serve and a Shirley Temple Slush with Fruity Cereal Soft Serve

    The slush and soft serve were so good! There were so many options to choose from, I will definitely be coming back

    This is an orange frozen confection with soft serve vanilla. The shop is a very small with a cool location. Never had anything like it and the quality is sensational. Many flavors of soft serve and frozen confection that can be combined all sorts of ways. The density and taste are perfect. My granddaughter and I loved it! We're going to take Dave (the owner) a copy of his place with the flying unicorn.

    Soo good!!! So many flavors to pick from!! The kids will love on a hot day or just for a sweet snack!

    Slush and soft serve w lotsa toppings!

    This place was so fun! Formerly a Wicked Slush (if you're familiar). Dave helped us and was the most amazing host. He had us try so many samples and they were all amazing. Can't wait to go back!

    A small ice cream and soft serve store in Petaluma. The location is a bit difficult to find it's in an alleyway. The place was pretty packed but the wait was around 5 minutes. We got the small combo and child soft serve. The child size was perfect for me the cup sizes are pretty large despite the name. The soft serve was creamy and delicious. The flavor wasn't too milky or creamy just the right taste. Definitely a place to check out!

    I have to start with the people who work here first, they are SO NICE! Very friendly and welcoming! I am new to the whole icey and ice cream mix combos. But I went with sour blue razz and vanilla ice cream and I have to say... it was great!! I loved it! I went with a friend and they got churro and brown sugar cinnamon she was very happy with her choice too!

    This treat store is not easy to find if you are not familiar with the area. Using Google Map took us to an alley that our car could not get in. Then, we remembered that there is a public parking garage a couple blocks away. So, we parked there and walked to find this place. We were greeted by the owner. The place was well decorated and felt like a fun place to hang around; especially for kids. There were many things, including boards on the wall that the kids could play / write on / decorate. Then, of course, the sweet treats. There were many options, different ingredients/toppings, to mix and match. It is a fun activity just to choose and build our own treats. Get the creative juice flows, enjoy the yummy treats, and spend that quality parents-children time

Ordered it mid rare, and that's how it came. They have 'all the cheeses' you can choose from. I went with pepper jack. Burger was perfect. The bun was perfect. The produce was great. All in all a delicious burger. I went with a side salad instead of fries, but the fried side options were plenty and they all looked pretty good. The salad wasn't bad either. It came with kidney and garbanzo beans, carrots, cucumber, sliced onion and tomato on spinach. Only note on this salad is they should probably chop the onion and tomatos for the salads instead of dropping slices on your salad. Couldn't find any knives to cut thise big slices I wish the dining area was larger and more comfortable, otherwise I'd really want to hang out there over a cold pint.

The environment is nice, so it was a good day to sit outside. We get seated by the host, who was very sweet. Our server was extremely rude, unkind and obviously in a rush to get us out of our table. Mind you- we didn't choose our table. Afterwards, we were ordering our drinks... and he wasn't paying attention at all and kept insisting my friend wanted a beer she clearly wasn't ordering. THEN, a different server came to bring our drinks. He was very sweet, and by accident he spilled a drink all over one of my friends. No big deal, he had 4 drinks on his tray, so we understood and told him it was fine. Our server then comes, and we asked if we could order our appetizers, and he rolled his eyes and asked rudely if we wanted to get our meals also. If it wasn't for his behavior, we would've liked to have tried the dinner options, but we decided to get our bill and leave. We didn't even notice if we got charged the spilled drink. We just wanted to pay & leave. The wings were pretty good, sad that an interaction like that can change an entire mood and setting in your night.
