The shop itself was very cute and we were able to snag a table to enjoy our ice cream. I sure wish they had a west valley location!

We cannot wait to return to taste other flavors amongst the long list of ice creams on offer.

We showed up a little after 6 on a Friday night (in a particularly warm evening in January), and only a couple other people were there. We were greeted with a good amount of employees ready to take our orders. I was the first one to order and I opted for the 4 scoop sample. In it was banana cream pie, sticky fingers, chocolate peanut butter brownie, and graham central station. Each flavor was creamy and delicious. All of us got our own 4 scoop sample (so good thing there were that many employees ready to help and wasn't too busy at the time). My dad also got the chocolate peanut butter brownie and also the NCY cheesecake flavor. We both agreed the brownies in the chocolate flavor tasted like the usual frozen brownie chunks that don't really taste that great. He also commented the NYC cheesecake, while still good, was his least favorite. On the contrary, everything else I got was tasty (shout out to banana cream pie). My brother got the blue Oreo flavor was loved it. My mom loved her four flavors and commented that it had a lot of mix-ins "just like Ben & Jerry's" which she was a big fan of. Another great experience at a Handel's!

After having some dinner down the street, I came across Churn and knew I needed to come and check this place out. This small ice cream shop had a pretty big line on a Monday night when I arrived but it moved quickly and the ice cream looked dang good in the glass display. I decided on getting a two scoop waffle cone with Cookies & Mint and Milk & Cookies. The ice cream tasted super rich and super creamy, both flavours were very good. Overall, Churn is a top notch ice cream parlour and a place I would probably frequent if I lived in Phoenix. The ice cream here is great, the staff was friendly, and I really wish they had some non small and medium t-shirts because I would of left with one. Great spot.

I first found out about Churn when I visited Windsor for happy hour. They are conjoined and share…read morethe same front/back parking lots and patio. Like literally you can walk between the businesses in the same building. I tried them for the first time during a Windsor/Churn Yelp Elite Event but have since visited Churn alone on my own afterward! I really liked the seasonal flavor milk and cookies because the chocolate chip cookie included in the ice cream is one of their cookies they serve separately anyway, so you know it's good. It had a sweet cream base. My sister and I shared a triple scoop for only $7 and satisfied the both of us. The interior is pretty small, but there's at least patio seating in the back and a bench out front. I'm excited to try other seasonal and permanent flavors in subsequent visits, but for now I love the milk and cookies too much to try anything else and would definitely return for just that!

My husband did their chocolate & peanut butter and I had their birthday cake & cinnamon. Each scooped into a fresh waffle cone. They offer cups from small to large also. Their ice cream is made fresh daily! The texture is perfection! Light creamy and luscious. It actually comes from a local dairy farm, just can't get any better than that. It was great. Note-You can take home pre-scooped pints and quarts. Additionally, they sell fresh made butter, cheese and marscapone, ALL from their dairy farm as well! There's a few food trucks, serving far more than ice cream that pop up at many local events from this crew too! Check their website for details. Stop in here to get the entire run down of their fantastic ice cream and extended business.

But there is a serious problem that has been going on for years: the overwhelming sewer smell inside the shop. It's incredibly strong and makes the experience really unpleasant. From what I understand, the store owners have tried to address it, but it seems to be a larger issue related to the Santan Village property. The gelato is so good that people still come in and power through the smell just to get it, which says a lot about how great the product is. But it shouldn't have to be that way. Someone at the property management level really needs to fix whatever plumbing or sewer issue is causing this. I would love nothing more than to enjoy the gelato here without the smell ruining the experience:(
