Delicious ice cream...what's not to like?! This could possibly be my shortest yelp review :)…read more I plan to go to the Mesa location so I'll review that one too, and post some actual ice cream photos.

Loved this place, the ice cream is so rich and not super sweet, it is a must during the summer…read more The place used to be more lively but they have enough tables and chairs if you want to sit down. Would definitely continue to go as I believe this is one of the top ice cream places in Phoenix

So sweet and thoughtful. The portions were perfect and worth it. Definitely coming back!read more

I have seen many food trucks while working on the various Arizona State University campuses, though…read moreI was recently introduced to The Scookie Bar, and what a treat it was (literally and figuratively!). There is a nice variety of sweet treats, and the service provided by the team inside the truck was stellar. One of our student organizations was hosting The Scookie Bar, and after walking around their event, you could score a ticket for a complimentary Scookie. As we pre-ordered so many as incentives for our students, I thought I'd give it a try. Unfortunately, something wasn't set up properly so we didn't have the cookies themselves, but we did have sundaes. We had six options to decide between. I went with The Standard consisting of vanilla ice cream, chocolate chips, and chocolate sauce, and on a normal day, there would have bene a chocolate chip cookie, too. The other five options included the Chocolate Lover, The Celebration, The Signature, Reese's Lover, and The VNA. While I enjoyed the sundae, I'm sure it would have been even better with the cookie included. The Scookie Bar is "where the scoop met the cookie" and serves freshly baked, warm deep-dish skillet cookies also known as scookies. They have a location at The Churchill in Downtown Phoenix, though I would assume I would more regularly see them when their food truck stops by ASU. Their Churchill location is closed on Monday but open Tuesday through Friday from 5-10 PM and Saturday and Sunday from Noon to 10 PM. If you want to order catering, it includes 2 hours of service and a 100 scookie minimum. They can provide a Build Your Own Menu where guests can choose the cookie, ice cream, and toppings, or they can choose from the Signature Scookie Menu which is what ASU did. They have been operating since 2016 in Phoenix. Now that I realize that I was missing the chocolate chip cookie, I need to try it again with that included! I definitely recommend this sweet treat to others.

After a wonderful meal next door at The Sicilian Butcher, our waiter suggested some dessert, but…read morelittle did I know they had a whole bakery connected to the restaurant. I can't speak on the customer service as we never left our table and our waited just walked over and got what we needed. We were pretty stuffed from our massive meal, but we decided on sharing a cup of gelato just to satisfy our sweet tooth. I peeked inside as our table was right at a little walkway from the restaurant to the bakery. Gelato is just one of many things they serve here. They also have all your typical Italian desserts. Cakes like tiramisu, pastries like Italian flag cookies, cookies like Italian wedding cookies, cannolis of different varieties, and of course gelato. What was suggested to us if we wanted gelato was the hazelnut flavor. I was expecting a little cup for the 6 of us just to get a taste, but what he brought over was a massive serving. I don't know how many scoops it was or even how much we even paid, but we all got plenty with some even left behind. Now this gelato was life changing. Probably the best I've had in the states. I know it's gotta be way better in Italy, but I'll take what I can when I can. Think of a Ferrero Rocher but in gelato form. It was delicious and I couldn't get enough of it. It wasn't overly sweet and it had a little crunch with bits of chocolate and hazelnuts. My sweet tooth was extremely satisfied after having dessert here. I have literally been thinking about that gelato since I left Phoenix. Luckily this company has locations in Texas so I will definitely be seeking out this gelato soon.

Some cravings simply refuse to be ignored... and mine was a cannoli. Thankfully, The Sicilian…read moreBaker never disappoints! We've worked our way through what feels like almost the entire dessert case over the years, and I can honestly say I've yet to find something I didn't love. Every pastry is beautifully crafted, incredibly fresh, and tastes like it was made with so much care. This visit was all about the cannoli, and let me just say... craving officially satisfied! The shell had that perfect crisp snap, while the filling was silky, rich, and just the right amount of sweet. It was everything I had been dreaming about and then some. Walking into The Sicilian Baker always feels like stepping into a little slice of Italy. Between the gorgeous display of desserts and the irresistible aroma of fresh pastries, it's nearly impossible to leave with just one treat (don't say I didn't warn you! ). Whether you're stopping in for a post-dinner dessert, celebrating something special, or simply giving in to a sweet tooth like I did, this place is absolutely worth the visit. Every dessert we've tried has been phenomenal, and this cannoli was another delicious reminder of why we keep coming back. Sweet craving? Check. Happiness? Double check.

When I was looking at Phoenix, the spot kept popping up so I had to try it. I tried to tiramisu and…read moreit was very good. I wish I could've tried more flavors, but I couldn't take him with me on the flight. The service is very friendly. They talked about all of their flavors and provide a recommendations, but I was craving tiramisu. They have water and coffee and protein shakes or milk if you need something with your cheesecake The inside was wonderfully air condition and there's some seeds. If you wanna eat it in the store. It looks like a lot of people bought it to go though. If I was to come back, I would want to try the cheesecake and I recommend that you try it too!

Let's start with what they absolutely nailed, the cheesecake. This is the reason people keep coming…read moreback. It's smooth, rich without being too heavy, and the flavor actually develops as you eat it instead of just being one-note sweet. You can tell they take this part seriously. Leave it outside the fridge for an hour and watch that cheesecake melt on your tongue crystals (if you have the patience for that) Their rotating monthly flavors keeps things interesting, and you're not just stuck with the same lineup every time. Out of what I tried, the banana pudding one was easily a standout--super nostalgic, creamy, and just done right without being overly sweet. The coconut one was also up there, more subtle but still really clean and flavorful. Love me some coconut! They also have a punch card system--buy 9 slices, get the 10th free--which is a nice touch. It lowkey turns into a mission because once you've tried one flavor, you kinda want to work your way through all of them anyway. Now...the downside. The customer service just isn't great. It's not aggressive or anything, just noticeably lacking. There's not much warmth or engagement--it feels pretty transactional. For a place that clearly puts effort into their product, you'd expect at least a baseline level of hospitality, and it's just not really there. So overall, if you're going to Banhams, go for the cheesecake. The rotating flavors keep it fresh, the quality is legit, and it's definitely worth trying. Just don't expect much from the service side, and you'll enjoy it a lot more.

Life's too short to have bad pie that's what the sign on the wall says! And it's true I've had…read moreplenty of decent pie I thought but this place is a revelation. Each bite is perfect not too sweet, crust is flakey. A perfect harmony of spices! We got the Apple, Key Lime and Banana and I was kicking myself for not buying more. (Banana was my favorite) Bring your pie hole here asap

Ordered two pies online to pickup the day before day: a banana cream and a rhubarb strawberry. The…read morerhubarb strawberry was excellent, both filling and crust. (I recommend lightly nuking a slice, and putting vanilla ice cream on top.) The banana cream had lots of cream, but not enough bananas, at least per my expectations. I'd give the first one five stars, the second three. Hence my overall rating of four stars.

Both fun grocery picks, gift ideas, and children's toys to peruse. Their food is pretty good for a quick lunch on the go! I came here with friends just for a casual pickup and catchup. I ordered the seasonal Berry Cheesecake Latte. Instant hit!! I was a bit shocked by opting for oat milk was $1.50...but disregarding that bit, the latte was a cozy summer drink. As soon as I ordered it and put my card away, I turned around and my drink was ready!

This time they called a…read moretow truck on my because I parked in their "curbside" pickup spot when there were no other spots open. I asked the manager if this was the policy and he told me, "I haven't talked to the security guard, maybe you should just move your car instead of making it a big deal." Yeah I think your security guard either lying about a tow truck or actually calling one is actually a big deal. Holy crap. Way too over priced to deal with this hassle. They also have no idea what a nicoise salad is. And the manager was gossiping with an employee about me which made it so obvious because she was staring me down from over the counter. I'm literally just trying to grab a meal to go. Absolutely insane. Burger was okay. Truly not worth the experience.

The artist who took my order and created it is truly a passionate artist, putting love into every movement of my milkshake, from carefully blending to gently tossing the Cookie crumbs onto the finished product. It was an experience in every way and I just didn't know where to start with devouring my beautiful monstrosity. Every bite and every sip was Heaven, so if you're downtown and want an ice cream, this is the place, no other!
