After a year of living here, we found good ice cream! And not just good, frickin delicioso!! Nothing compares in Franklin. Great business!!

We came here on a Sunday afternoon on a hot day. The parking lot was easy to park in and not that crowded, even though they share space with other businesses in the strip mall. The first thing we noticed when we walked in was the selection of popsicles, all premade and packaged in the glass case. Once you select your pop, you can have it dipped and/or toppings added for an additional cost. I had the coffee flavored one and it was nice and creamy. We ate inside at one of their few tables since it was so hot outside. The employees all took safety precautions and the price is very reasonable. The bathroom is also very clean. read more

Awesome, rich, flavourful ice cream... it's a small but very clean place. Service was good. All 4 of the ice cream's we bought were super good.. definitely recommend this place read more

This place is awesome! Fantastic selection. Precious staff. Super clean and cute inside. Could use a little touch up on the exterior to make a little more inviting, but don't let it fool you. This place is legit. read more

This place continues to amaze me after several years of coming. I've never had anything I didn't like. I just had the creamiest, most delicious ice cream ever - Ferrero Rocher ice cream. This will absolutely be served in Heaven - I'm sure of it. Try it. Like now. Amazing!!!! read more

Best ice cream and juices ever!!!! I've not had a bad thing yet. A place you definitely need to try.

Very Rude walked in and they just stared at me not saying a rude and goes to the back saying some slick stuff to the co workers laughing.Very bad service and gave me expired fruit. read more

Super fun flavors for paletas and ice cream. Lots of traditional Mexican snacks also. Give it a try!

If you are Mexican, or have lived in Mexico, or have dated a Mexican, or love Mexican food, or have dreamed of ever being Mexican, you must go here to have a Chamoyada! Not to be confused with en-chi-la-da, please! A chamoyada is usually made with mangos, but can be made with peaches, or just about any other fruit...it's a dessert. I've never made one before, but I've certainly eaten my share of them in my lifetime. Let me describe how it's done. First, the ice cream parlourista pours chamoy (spicy sauce) on the cup, then spicy chili powder, adds mango gelato, mango purée, lemon, fresh sweet mango spears, spicy sauce...and then I don't know what else...but whatever it is, it's GOOD...ADDICTING! If you close your eyes and drink this...your taste buds might make you think you have traveled to a city in Mexico (FYI this dessert contains no hallucinogenics)....a spoonful of this famous chamoyada may make you feel just like Samantha from " Bewitched," and POOF! ...you're walking down an old narrow lopsided cobble street passing mercados and street stands, a couple chickens and a scattered crowd. YES IT IS THAT GOOD! If you have never had one before, and you are a daredevil, adventurous, and opened to new discoveries, I highly recommend it to you! You will not be disappointed! This place also has Popsicles of all flavors, all 100% natural! Strawberry, kiwi, guava, watermelon,....etc...even sweet corn! The location is hidden on the side of a small shopping mall, next to a tobacco store, which catty-corners to a Mexican restaurant! Ha! Great thinking people! Prices start at $2.25. I heard they are opened late on Saturday nights. They have several tables and chairs inside and a couple outside benches. Go get your Mexican on...I doubledogdare you to go try a mango chamoyada! :) read more

10 stars!! great popcicles made on the premises. Their assortment of flavored waters is outstanding and delicious. My favorite is the coconut water. The ice creams are creamy, delicious, and hand made. If you're wanting to try something adventurous, I highly suggest the Piña Loco. A combination of pineapple mango juice and chamoy ( a salty, spicy paste that os out of this world) read more

Paletas Tocumbo - A plethora of paletas - Desserts Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

Their drink selection blew me away. Got the hibiscus with a blueberry and cheesecake pop sickle.

Talk about perfection: The ice cold treats are incredibly delicious, with flavors that sparkle thanks to real ingredients; the prices are a complete bargain; the service is friendly; and the menu is unique. The menu mainly consists of paletas --Mexican popsicles -- and ice cream. The paletas come in a huge variety of flavors (everything from strawberry cream and grape to avocado and pico de gallo). The ice cream has chocolate and coffee-flavors, but also chongos and key lime pie. The key lime pie ice cream is simply incredible. I'll probably need to get them to sell me a gallon of it the next time I go to visit my Mom and aunts, who are all fiends for key lime. It's gonna blow their minds. The shop was started by a family from Mexico, and brings many of the treats of their homeland to Franklin. The neighborhood has a fairly large migrant community, and they flock here for a taste of home. It took a little while for the rest of the community to discover the place, but there are now lines at the counter whenever the weather warms up. Families love this place. If you're a native-born American looking for something adventurous, try out the Chamoyada! It combines mango ice cream and fresh slices of mango with lime juice, chili powder, and chamoy sauce -- a sweet, sour, slightly salty and spicy sauce made from fermented fruit. It's amazing. read more

Best paletas I've had! Their milk based were better. I had the cappuccino one, and I've tried the strawberry cheesecake one. That cappuccino one, though, was the best. Highly recommend trying it! read more

This place has the best paletas! You have to try it just once to become addicted! We love it.

Tasty paletas (popsicles) for a hot summer day! Fruit and milk-based options are available. The frescas are also tasty and sweet.

Delicious, delicious, and delicious. Priced well! And excellent service! A must try... you'll be hooked! LOVE!!! read more

Paletas Tocumbo - Delicious, delicious, and delicious. Priced well! And excellent service. A must try... you'll be hooked. - Desserts Near Me - Franklin, Tennessee

I visit here frequently. Nice and clean! Great options, good ice cream! Friendly staff

Just discovered that this place existed tonight. Conveniently located a few blocks from Big Shake's Hot Chicken, we were quite relieved to get a nice cold creamy paletas on our scorched lips after dinner! This place has a bigger selection of flavors than Las Paletas in 12th South (which is also amazing), and they make their paletas on site there. They also serve fruit water and homemade ice cream. The fruit water seemed rather interesting and I'll have to try some of those at a later date. I had the strawberry cheesecake paletas and my husband had strawberry cream, which were both delicious. Located a little over a mile from downtown Franklin off West Main, it can be overlooked if you don't know it's there. But it's definitely worth stopping by for a great homemade cool treat in the summer! read more

Brightly dark colors. Colorful signs. On a Sunday night it packed to the gills with families enjoying delicious ice cream bars. I myself enjoyed the creamiest sliced strawberries and cream bar. Heavenly. The fresh strawberries being both sweet and tart against the creamy ice cream. The also serve a dish with a large deep fried chicharones covered with shredded lettuce, hot sauce, cream,tomatoes,onions,pickled chicharone sliced or cucumber,homemade chili sauce,and I asked for corn. It is a texture hodge podge of insanity in your mouth. Your taste buds get an explosion of texture and flavor madness that just seems to work. The employees are eager to provide a great experience and get you the fastest assistence they can while ensuring they smile and make you feel welcome! read more

Amazing Mexican ice-cream, with and without dairy. They are in odd looking strip mall, but otherwise everything is good

Amazing selection of traditional Paletas. We stop here often in the summer, always with friends, and everyone always raves about how amazing it was. Not the greatest location....but 100% worth the stop for amazing summer treats, fair prices and friendly employees. read more

Definitely check this place out. I had the cajeta flavor. My wife had pistachio. We will be back often! read more

Wow these are so great my wife loves these especially the Kiwi! They are obviously fresh and authentic. I wish they had deals to buy bulk because I'd gladly buy 10 or more at one time especially if they offer a discount. I recommend you try these you'll be glad you did read more

New season a Tocumbo. They closed for a while during the winter which made me very sad. Very very sad indeed. But alas, they are open again and all is right in Franklin. Everything is amazing, but today's homeade Key Lime Pie ice cream was yumsville. I think they just threw a couple of pies in the mix! I mentioned before they are better than any ice cream in Franklin, including Kilwens. And I can feed my whole familty double scoops for the price of one (ok maybe one and a half) at Kilwen's. Super friendly staff. What mare is there to say. You owe it to Franklin and your self to go there. read more

This place is wonderful! The ice cream is delicious, and they have a bunch of tropical flavors. The popsicles are good as well, and they are very affordable! read more

Exceptionally clean and absolutely delicious! Kind and friendly smiles greet you and make you feel right at home. The variety and freshness of the ice creams can't be beat! My favorite is the caramel pecan, whole pieces of pecans and chopped pieces. read more

I would give this place more stars if it were possible! I had the cappuccino ice cream; I was in love at first bite! My husband had the Oreo ice cream and in his words "it's perfect"! I also got the cucumber lime water, I'm actually surprised at HOW good it is! Just left, and can't wait to come back! read more

Great place. Friendly staff and very helpful. I had the strawberry kiwi and it was amazing.

There is absolute nothing wrong with this place! I'm from Southern California and since I've moved here I've been home sick from Hispanic treats like this. Lots of good flavors! I want to come here as much as I can! read more

We've been coming here for a few years and we love it. Authentic paletas and other delicious treats. Good customer service, clean and super cute place. read more

We went to Paletas Pocumbo for the first time last night. I got a pineapple paleta, sort of a pineapple popsicle. It was excellent. Imagine fresh pineapple pureed then frozen; that was the flavor. It was frozen hard, but as it melted, it became a creamy ice, if that makes any sense. Not ice cube hard, but not ice cream creamy either. Location, location, location. I'm sure rent in central downtown historic Franklin is through the roof, but Paletas would do a bang up business if they relocated to an area with more foot traffic. Currently, they are located off the beaten path around the corner from the health dept and circuit court. All in all, Paletas Tocumbo is absolutely worth driving a mile or so out of the way! read more

Fabulous palentas I had pistachio my husband watches me eat it and says is it worth the price isn't it just a Popsicles I laugh in his face and say you have got to be kidding take a bite he does and let me tell you the look on his face and I said see it is the most wonderful ,cool inviting pistachios galore and creamy perfection ! read more

Really nice friendly staff. Great homemade ice cream and Popsicles. But they have even more. I see people getting these gigantic entire pineapple fru fru drinks all the time with tons of stuff sticking out. We've been there numerous times, as it is in walking distance for us, have never had anything bad. I recommend the raspberry or blackberry palletas and the mint chocolate chip. read more

Very friendly dessert spot. Great staff and delicious treats. They have a a flavor for everyone! Both icy/fruity flavors and creamy pops too. They have drinks like horchata and ice cream as well. read more
