    animal circus cookie
    Christa M.

    I've had this place saved for a while now and finally stopped by on Friday night. It wasn't too busy so we were helped a few minutes after we arrived. The employee was very friendly and let us try out a few samples. We ordered one small cake batter ice cream with a small waffle cone and a mini circus animal cookie ice cream with a mini cone. The circus animal cookie ice cream was delicious and not overwhelmingly sweet. It was very creamy and even had pieces of the animal cookies mixed in. The cake batter was also really good as it was also creamy and almost that of a gooey texture. The inside was clean and well decorated. They also had great music playing and there were tables inside and out.

    Finally tried Stella's! Cute ice cream shop in the Verde Cooley Station. Lots of parking available. We were greeted when we walked in and the girl who helped us was very nice. There's two picnic tables outside, two 4 seated tables and one big table with 8-10 chairs. So I can see this place being full during busy times but we came on a Wednesday afternoon so easy to snag a table. We could have as many samples as we wanted and we weren't rushed. The prices are pretty on point with any other gourmet ice cream shop. They have some cute dipped cones as well as cookies and bars. They also have a fridge in the back full of push pops, ice cream sandwiches, pints, doggie treats and cakes! I'm coming back for the push pops! I love that they offer a tiny cone and scoop, enough to satisfy my craving. Oh and they have Blue Moon!!! My fave when I lived in Michigan and don't see it anywhere else. It tastes slightly different but still good! My girls got a scoop of the strawberry and flavor of the week - moonbeam- both delish. They have maybe 8 regular flavors and then some rotating with the flavor of the week. Plus a good variety of dairy free ice cream choices! Our new fave ice cream spot so we'll def be back :)

    Stella's Ice Cream is a great addition to Verde! It recently opened and I've already been a handful of times. The staff is always friendly and helpful, taking their time to walk us through the offerings and flavors. The space is fun, bright, and welcoming. There's ample seating indoor as well as a couple of tables outside. Stella's offers a ton of different flavors, including a dedicated dairy-free menu typically with eight flavors with some rotating. They usually release one new flavor per week. In addition to ice cream, they also offer brownies, cookies including gluten-free options, doggie ice cream, and more. I've tried a few different flavors including dairy-free ones. My favorite so far has been a seasonal flavor, lavender fields or something similar, which was a surprise to me since I don't typically enjoy the lavender flavor. I've also tried their brownie which was great and a gluten-free cookie which was just okay. I'll be back next time a new flavor calls my name!

    Cute little ice cream shop with some unique flavors. We ended up getting the Guava Cheesecake (sweet, tart, and creamy bites of cheesecake) and the All Nighter (chocolate, coffee, and cookie bits). The only thing that I wish they would add is the flavor names next to the actual ice cream. They only have a list of flavors on the wall. When you look at the ice cream in the freezer window, there are no labels. You either have to ask what flavor you're curious about on the wall or you have to look at the actual ice cream tubs and point at it and ask what it is. It makes sampling and decision making take longer and I think that's why a long line tends to form.

    Stopped by Stella's after dinner for some ice cream. Pro: Aesthetic was cute Staff was friendly Meh: The ice cream was just alright The water station was a plus until I drank water and it was warm ... Con: No ingredients list in the case of an allergy Who is Stella? Where is the "about us" for this small business? Who are we supporting? Would love to know! What sets this ice cream shop apart from others in the area? It was just an alright ice cream shop. Spent almost $20 and would probably skip this place next time and try out somewhere new.

    Very happy to have Stella's at Cooley Station in Gilbert! We stopped in during the soft opening and loved it! They have a huge selection across the board. They have a great variety of flavors, including a range of non-diary options. Samples are encouraged! A great choice of cones, bowls, shakes, sundaes, ice cream sandwiches, and more. Honestly, the selection they have here is awesome! We tried a bunch of different flavors and they were all delicious! The Chocolate Peanut Butter might have been my favorite but it's a tough choice. All their ice cream is very creamy and smooth, very well made, IMO! They have seating both inside and outside. Inside, they also have cakes and sandwiches pre-made to grab and go, as well as pints of their own flavors to take home! The staff was excellent and very helpful. The location is perfect for a post dinner treat or walking around checking out the shopping options. Tons of parking, too. If you're an ice cream lover, you need to add Stella's to your list! Definitely worth the visit.

    Even though I found the ice cream to be overpriced, the homemade cones were the best cones I've ever had! They have a variety of dairy free flavors that are actually very tasty.

    Stella's is easily now my favorite ice cream shop in the valley. As soon as we entered we were greeted by lovely girls who explained everything. My husband and I shared a double scoop in a waffle bowl. The ice cream was creamy and delicious, and they do not skimp on the items mixed in. Can't wait to go back and try more!

    I was really excited to see a new local ice cream place going into this area. I went opening day to try it out. I sampled a few flavors and they were all very artificial tasting and the colors were neon. I don't care for artificially colored and flavored things anymore. It seems like a nice enough spot but I ended up getting a single and splitting it and couldn't finish it. It's hard when Salt and Straw are close too. I wish them luck but it won't be a regular spot for me.

    I happened to be in the area with family and several friends after an event and how lucky we were we got to experience this place on the day of their opening! We literally packed the place :) Everyone enjoyed their variety of ice cream flavors but I stuck with chocolate and it was delicious. Everyone was so courteous and provided great service. Inside the shop is very cute and has lovely colors perfect to sit down and enjoy a scoop or two of their wonderful ice cream!

    Super cute ice cream shop, the girls who worked there were so sweet. You get free samples to try there fun flavors. We got their cookie sundae and it was great! We will definitely be back!

    A super cute addition to Cooley Station! Stopped in with some friends on a Thursday afternoon and tried out some ice cream. The employee was friendly and helpful and we got to sample some flavors. The interior is bright and clean. I ended up with their Pralines and cream flavor and really enjoyed it. All of their ice creams are homemade and they have a lot of options to-go in their freezer as well. Will definitely be back!

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!

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!

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.
