I've been riding the bike here for coffee every morning of vacation. Great location right off the beach. Staff is super friendly. Very relaxing morning vibes. Haven't tried it because I quit eating sweets, but the ice cream looks very inviting. Big variety of flavors. Definitely recommend a stop in if you're in the area. They get ! read more

Stopped here for a sweet treat while visiting family in St. Pete!! Such a cute spot to grab an ice cream and walk around or visit the beach. The servers were very friendly and let me try multiple flavors (Yum!). I tried the blueberry cheesecake and the double (triple?) peanut butter. Ended up going with the peanut butter in a chocolate waffle cone with sprinkles. The store itself is very cute, there's some seating outdoors and it was busy but luckily didn't have to wait too long to be served. I'll definitely come back the next time that I'm in town and have to try more of the flavors or the coffee! read more

Loved the ice cream, it was the perfect post-dinner treat. The free samples are appreciated because there are so many flavors and everything I tried was delicious. We also visited Paradise Sweets for specialty coffee and bottled water on our first morning and it hit the spot. Tip - take your coffee to go and enjoy it while you eat breakfast at Paradise Grille since it has a killer view. read more

Awesome staff, I love the Snow Cones, ice cream, and the macaroons. The outside seating area was nice, we went to the beach and the sweets were so good, definitely recommend a visit here. Definitely coming back next Spring Break. From Chase read more

Great spot to cool off next to the beach! Came on Friday afternoon it was a little busy but line moved quickly and we were able to find a few chairs to lounge in. Was so difficult to choose between ice cream or shaved ice, so I got a rootbeer float that was absolutely delicious and had the perfect amount of ice cream. Highly recommend! read more

There was a long line when we stopped by, but it was worth the wait. Enough choices of flavors to make anyone happy with very fresh waffle cones. It is a small shop and with only one clerk the day we stopped by it made for a few minute wait to be served, but it really was worth it. Make sure to stop in! read more

We almost always stop by here after having dinner in Pass a grille. Friendly staff and fresh flavors with generous portions. Can't go wrong! read more

This place is literally in the waterfront. Short walk from the hot sand for a delicious treat or a quick snack. Amazing family friendly environment. Smoothies and house coffee frozen drink were excellent. Going to St Pete Beach should certainly include a trip to Paradise Sweets. Such a great atmosphere . Can't wait to be back! read more

Ice cream is delicious but you should teach the young Indian girl some customer service skills, asked for a bag for post cards, no thank you even, like I was putting her out and she expects a tip. read more

The best around! Great selection, awesome staff with local ice cream from Sarasota and the fun gelaty's pops.

I thought my ice cream was delicious. I got the chocolate fudge brownie and it was phenomenal. The workers were very nice and provided amazing service. However, my friend didn't have the same experience. He was devastated when he saw that they changed the name of his favorite ice cream. They changed Superman to Superhero. He felt betrayed and decided not to get it because of the name change. He asks that the name gets changed back by next summer. read more

The ice cream was so delicious!! It's well priced, tasty, and the workers are so nice! This place not only has ice cream, but it has, drinks, candy, chips, and Italian ice!! Highly recommend stopping by!! read more

Great place to grab ice cream or something sweet before heading cross the street to enjoy the ocean views. My wife and I each ordered ice cream - mine in a bowl and hers in a cone. The service was great and fast, and they offer a good variety of flavors and options. read more

Small little shaved ice, ice cream or coffee cafe that is tucked away across from the beautiful sand beaches at 8th and Golf Way. I was satisfied with the coffee and my kids were torn between the plethora of ice cream flavors or the shaved ice. Either one you decide, you'll be lovin' the decision to swing by Paradise Sweets. read more

It's great that a common ice cream place is placed right across the beach. They also have candies and coffees/teas. Three stars because I think it's overrated. Some of the staff were super accommodating and kind and others gave an attitude. Their flavors aren't anything special, however, the ice cream is real. It melts fast so that means little or no emulsifiers in it. They have a few tables inside and out, both on the sort of patio and around the side of 8th. The tables aren't cleaned regularly, so be prepared to reposition yourself and belongings or grab some napkins prior to or get nasty! They didn't have mint-(choco)-chip when I was there..... that's my go-to flavor! I tried a couple of flavors and got a small cup with two flavors for $3.50. I then wanted a coffee post purchase and I wasn't able to locate a garbage bin to toss out my empty cup. I asked one of the boys behind the counter where the bins are and he said outside (I didn't want to go outside, I was outside all day!) and he said that they're overflowing, and then when he saw my frustration because the main door was flooded with families entering and ordering he said there's one inside right between the door and the counter.... again! That's right where it was overwhelming with people. I asked if he could take it and if I could place an order for coffee. He completely ignored me and turned his head the other way. Then he motioned for some newcomers to order and basically got rid of me. It did the trick. I grabbed my stuff and pushed through the swarm of people and the trash bin was overstuffed inside too. Half of my rubbish fell in the gap between the bin and the ice cream counter. I don't think I'll be back. The girls working behind the counter we're courteous and did amazingly. I gave a $0.50 tip for the ones who initially helped me. ----- After messaging in depth with the owner, I've learned that the ingredients in the Vanilla ice cream are as follows: Cream, milk, skim milk, sugar, whey, stabilizer (locust bean gum, guar gum), vanilla extract, vanilla bean. Contains Milk. Happy eats! read more

What is not to love about REAL ice cream and a ton of delicious (and some not common) flavors? I had the strawberry shortcake flavor and decided on a second flavor -- carrot cake. It didn't disappoint. Someone in my group of ice cream junkies also had the coconut and peace (separate flavors) and both were amazing. The coconut had chunks of coconut and slices of it as well. The peach was very light and not as heavy as the flavors I had. Add the beautiful sunsets across the street, and you have found heaven! read more

Paradise Sweets - Single scoop of chocolate ice cream - Coffee & Tea Near Me - St. Pete Beach, Florida

What a great treat after a day at the beach! I ordered one scoop of the razzle dazzle (?): raspberry with pieces of chocolate inside. And one scoop was plenty! While I ordered it in a waffle cone, the server observed that since the ice scream was soft, that a bowl would be helpful, and I'm glad for that! Once outside, my group sat down to enjoy their treats. I ate half of my ice cream from the cone and the other half from the bowl. Would definitely come back! read more

This was my first time having Yoder ice cream and I went with the coffee in a waffle cone. My daughter got toasted coconut and while I loved the coffee, the toasted coconut might be my next cone. This was a delicious stop!!! read more

As regulars this place was great- great coffee, great ice cream, unique sodas and old fashioned candy and plenty of dairy free options- HOWEVER on mother's Day after dinner and a walk on the beach, we waited for over 10 minutes in line only to be told that we, and the two sets of guests in front of us would not be served as they were closed! We were in line well before closing so I let them know how rude this was- it's not my fault they weren't prepared for Mother's Day business! read more

Super delicious ice cream. Def recommend following a beach day! Great service as well!

Loved this place, the ice cream was delicious. They have a take out window for Covid and we walked right up and were attended to right away. Can't believe we haven't stopped here before. read more

Anyone familiar with the beautiful summer weather we enjoy much of the year in Florida will appreciate this type of shop, especially when it's located directly across from the beach. I've read the reviews on the coffee and I can appreciate having a great coffee shop to start the day, but to me this place is about a cold refreshment to recharge yourself after spending a day in the sun. This little oasis is the place to be when you're craving something cold and sweet and you aren't quite ready for that alcoholic beverage. I usually find myself torn between the "shave' ice and a really good ice cream cone but more often than not I go for the soft velvety snow ball especially if they offer "tigers blood" flavoring as an option. Being this area is a popular tourist spot I thought the prices were fair, a small snow ball will run you about $3.50 before tax, but I'd say the small is comparable to a medium at most places. I think I need to clarify something before going forward please don't confuse this treat with a snow-cone there is absolutely no comparison this Hawaiian inspired treat is so much more, this ice is shaved not ground so it's all about the texture. They also offer plenty of candies choices in self-serve jars thats great to take with you for later. I did look over the ice cream selection and although as tempting as they were I didn't try them so I can't comment on the quality although this seemed to be the choice by most. read more

Highly recommend this place! We have been there twice and both times the service was fast and friendly from the two gals working. It's not the cheapest but is certainly worth what you pay. Hot fudge sundae with whip cream, chocolate sprinkles and caramel dripped over is just outstanding. Total bill for (3): $15...I did a $3 tip as well..$18 grand total read more

I got my girlfriend the Iced Chai Latte after flying a kite for an hour. It got all tangled and we ended up throwing it in the large trash bin that was very easy to locate OUTSIDE. It was a great trash bin highly recommend. I do not however recommend buying a kite from Walmart. read more

I had a hot cocoa with hazelnut and it was very yummy, perfect for the cold day that it was!

Great view of the water from the ~10 or so seats outside the shop. Jamaican music fits great with their location. Free wifi. Got the mocha - it was too sweet for me, but, the name of the place is Paradise Sweets, so I'm not gonna be that guy and knock a star off for that. Tip for newbies: The parking directly in front, on the cafe's side of the street is free but 15mins only, so you'd need to be leaving (to where?). The other side of the street park as long as you like, and there were several spots open on a perfect beach Sunday. You pay at a little town-run machine, $1.50/hour. read more

The only word I need to say: affagato. If you've never tried espresso poured over ice cream, you haven't lived. So take above average ice cream from Paradise Sweets the way it is and add espresso poured over it and you get one amazing dessert. I got the salted caramel with espresso over it and can't wait to go back sometime to get it again. Plus, grab your delicious treat & walk right across the street to a beautiful beach. You can't go wrong. The only problem is the parking situation. There is free 15 minute parking close by IF you can find a spot. Otherwise there is pay parking, which is still hard to come by on busy days. We drove around for a little before we were able to find a spot. read more

Literally served us melted ice cream. When I pointed out it was melted they were like yeah it gets hot in here, hard to keep up with the heat. What??? It's in a freezer. They did t even offer a different flavor That wasn't melted. I'm a local and won't be coming back. They must think they can be rude because it's a tourist area. read more

The ice cream is very good but I don't appreciate the attitude. A group of us walked in, the lady behind the counter continued texting without acknowledging us for several moments. No smile, no hello. Then I asked if they had Rocky Road and received a flat NO. All I ask is to be treated well if I'm giving you money for your product. That's it. I like the shop but please improve your customer service. read more
