They suggested this ice cream spot in their new town they recently moved to. We jumped in the car and within minutes we were here! You could easily walk from their home, but not in this humidity. Cute creamery shop. There is a handful of outdoor seating. We choose to eat indoors! I didn't get a chance to take pics of the of the seating indoors and outdoors due to people enjoying their cold treat. Our server behind the counter was very friendly. He gave us some of his favorites and also mentioned what were good sellers. My tastebuds weren't being too adventurous. Although, I sampled some fun named mixes. I did go with one that I sampled after the server mentioned it was a good seller. I enjoyed a scoop of the new flavor (I forgot the name!) along with a scoop of coffee flavor. They offer a variety of other options to enjoy a cold and creamy treat. My friend enjoyed an ice cream slushie. Her first time to try this and she said she would have it again. There is plenty of parking! I would love to come back here when visiting my friends again. Give them a try!

I opted for the latter given time constraints, which led me to search out a bakery. Lo and behold, the first resulted in Karen's Cakes & Cafe Pharr. I perused the site late Friday night (9/1), impressed by what I had seen of the photos, which was an obvious display of someone with great cake design talents. I couldn't believe my luck at this being the first result and exhaustion led me to retire for the night. I awakened Saturday (9/2) morning and resumed my task by reading the reviews which ultimately led to a phone call. It was not a regular business day, but as luck would have it, I got to speaking with Karen herself; the first call was an inquiry to find out about placing orders. Karen informed me of what I can order and the call ended thereafter. I gave it some thought and called back a second time; this time placing my order for cinnamon rolls, which Karen stated, "everyone loves". The time arrived for pickup and I got the opportunity to be warmly greeted by Karen, her husband Mike, and my order. I absolutely loved our exchange of conversation. To my surprise, Karen had included a couple of treats; a slice of her iced blueberry lemon cake, a slice of red velvet cheesecake AND extras that were totally unexpected and only found out when we got home. Thank you!! Thank you!! At this point, I couldn't wait to get home and when I did, my daughter, who had accompanied me on the trip, opened up the containers with the cake slices and we dug right into our treats and let me tell you, they were mouth watering and deliciously flavorful AND we didn't stop there; we knew we had to sample the cinnamon rolls and Karen, you weren't kidding about those rolls. They were absolutely and delightfully soft with just the right amount of sweet. It was not long before we decided that this is where I would be ordering my birthday cake. I am now torn between the iced blueberry lemon and the coconut cream cake!! Though I think my daughter has already decided on the iced blueberry lemon. Overall, the reviews are exactly what I experienced; a delightful business owner who had charm and appeal, whose smile was infectiously warm and inviting, who knows her products, swears by her customers' satisfaction, and guarantees that you would love it AND love it we did!! These appear to be the characteristics that continue to make Karen's Cake & Cafe Pharr a successful business for over 30 years. Thank you Karen for the last minute accommodation given such short notice. It was a pleasure meeting you and getting the opportunity to experience your expertise!! See you in October!!

We arrived just in the nick of time before their 2pm closing time during the weekday. My friends were acquainted with the server and the owner. Our server was very friendly and welcomed and thanked me for giving them a try. After we all finished chatting she took our drink order. We were all indecisive about our selection since there were many delicious items to select. They 3 of my friends decided to try something they hadn't tried yet. It was all to me so it was hard to select immediately. But, I finally decided on the Strawberry Grilled Cheese sandwich and side selection was the orzo with spinach. Our orders arrived and we sampled each others sandwiches. I did like the strawberry grilled cheese. I didn't think it would pair well, but I was wrong. I thought the same about the Fig Grilled Sandwich. I think I will have that next time. Or I might try some of the other interesting Grilled Sandwiches. The orzo dish was a refreshing dish and went well with the sandwich. This place is decorated cute and it is spacious inside with booth and table seatings available. My friends told me it is busy on the weekends. Our visit was on a Friday. It could have been very busy earlier but when we were seated there were plenty of tables available. This town is quaint, all brick buildings. Be sure you pay attention to the signs where you park. Parking patrol is always patrolling the area. I would definitely return come check them out.

These are all things that can lead to custard afterwards. As always with Whit's, it's delicious. The only problem is I paid $7 for two scoops of ice cream. This was including a $1 tip because it was a high enough price for a tip. However, $7 for two scoops of ice cream is ridiculous. So, I'll just make an adjustment and get one scoop of ice cream from now on. That way, low enough price for no tip necessary and less belly fat. And everything is expensive rn, but that won't last. Unfortunately, deflation always follows hyperinflation, which is worse. But it's only worse for the short term because it allows for an organic economic reset. Then again, the Federal Reserve might intervene once again and we go the route of Japan. I somehow just went from custard to deflation and Japan. Anyway.... One of the owners was operating the register and very friendly. The three key ingredients for success with this kind of business are friendliness, product, and location. They have all three. Therefore, I see success. Definitely recommended.
